The following Official Circtikr has been issotd

plications for information on the subjects therein
refers-en to . . .

Downing-qtrect, London.

" reply to your letter of the , I
an) directed by Earl Bathurst to act-paint you,
that as the Circular Letter distinctly specifies the
nature and r extent of the assistance which will be
granted to individuals who may be allowed to
proceed as Settlers to the Cape of Good Hope, to-
gether with the conditions under which alone
that assistance can be given to them, it is only
necessary to refer yoi to that dbeument, add. to
add that no proposal can be accepted which is
not framed in conformity with the offer of his Ala-
iestv's Government.

" With reference to your particular inquiries
respecting the mode in which tire views of the
Settler may best be attained, I have to acquaint
you, that it is not in Fotd Bathurst's power to
communicate to you that species of information,
which can most propel ly be afforded by the prac-
tical agriculturist, or obtained upon the spot,

The Settlers will be located in the interior
of the Co:ony, not • far from the coast ; and in
allotting to them the lands which Government
have agreed.to griaiit to them, their interests and
their wishes will he Consulted, and attended to as
'far as may be consistent with the public interests •
of the Colony.

barred from taking With them a moderate. supply
of these articles, as well as neeessaries-; and they
will find no difficulty in purchasing seed corn in

Conclusion, I beg to observe, that it must

TFIE PRINCE REGENT'S BIRTH-DAY.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)

Yesterday, being the Anniversary of the Birth
of the PaiNca R ROE NT, was celebrated by a no.
werinis parry of Gentlemen, who dined together
at WlLLts's. The Venison was presented to thew
by his Royal Highness, and the dinner and dessert
were of the beat description. The Chevalier flus-
PINI presided., and was supported by a strong corps
of professional and other Vocal. Performers, who
exerted themselves in a manner which di'! credit
to the
.occasion. The song of " God Save the
Regent," written by Mr: J J. STOCK DALB, and
composed by Mr. NATHAN, was swig most de-
lightfully by DIGNUM, WEBBE, &c., and as the
winds are SUCII as cannot fail to excite suitable
feelings of loyally, we subjoin them.

God save the Regent, long may he reign,
The voice of his country re-echoes the strain;
God save the Regent
And Victory's conquest shall chorus the lay,
While Peace, deck'd by Conquest, enriches his sway.
God save the Regent, long may he reign,
The voice of his country re-echoes the strain.
God save the Regent.

Though the palm and the olive his wreath doth entwine,
And splendour of peace As of war round him shine,
God save the Regent!
Rude Faction the Prince and his People would sever,
Oh, God save the Regent, and England for ever!
God save the Regent, long may, he reign.
The voice of his country re-echoes the strain,
God save the Regent!

Pride cif the Empire, refuge of Kings,
His glory, his fame thrnngh the universe rings,
God save the Regent!
For his high laurel'd trophies he'd only increase,
To give to all nations wealth, happiness, peace;
God save the Regent, long may he reign,
The voice of his country re-echoes the strain,
God save the Regent !

A Glee on the Battle. of Waterloo, for three
voices, written by the author of Fitz-Flo: lan's
phabet, and set to music by NATHAN', WaS intend'
ed to have been sung, buLwas probably sent- too
late. It is one of the most spirited performaaces
we have evrr seen, and will of course be pub-.
lishecl. There were several volunteer songs, but
in our opinion WEBBE. carried away the bell.
Cpnviviality prevailed to a very late hour, and.
the grey-eyed morn took a peep at many of the'
loyal and enthusiastic guests.

The Anniversary of the Ittmtir"s natal clay was
also yesterday observed pretty generally, in, a va-
riety of ways, by different establishments and per-,
sons, to show heir respectful attachment to his'
Royal Highness's person. A number of the dif-
ferent establishments- of bells, were ringing in the
course of the day. The .King's Guard 'mounted
duty at Sr. James's Pjace. with the Sr.ire (gin
lours, preceded by the Drum Major in his State'
Uniform. The Eagle and the Hope Fire 011 ic-
emen, in new clothing, with their engines, pre-•
ceded by bands of music, parades! the principal
streets of London, Westminster, ,nnd their envi-:
roils. The men belonging to the liar,!: Offire'
were afterwards regaled with a dinner. The
tish Fite Office, in the Strand, uas closed frOrn,'
business during the day, as a close holiday. The
Italian Opera House, and other public places, as
w(11 as sowe of the Royal Tradesmen's houses,
were. illominated. A didner was given to the
Pages, and other Gentlemen of the Royal Esta-.
blishinent, at Carlton-House,. as well as those of
the livery there, and at the 'King's Mews.
Want of room precludes us from giving an ac-
conot of the Ft:scival of the Loyal Society of Au-•
e'en( Britons, which took ',face yesterday in
honour of the Prince of WALES'S Birth-Day.
The Hors. • site Artillery Company yesterday
celebrated the anniversary of the birth of their.
Captain.General,-his Royal Highness the ININCE
REGENT, by a field-4y, and afterwards a dinner
at the Armory-house. His Royal Highness the
Duke of SUSSEX, the Colonel, dined with tti.e corps
on the occasion.
