1""" UPON WHICH LAND IS ONANTND TO SITTLZIOt IN ATIW

ouru WALIVI AND VAN pIIMAN'S
For the information of persons proceeding to New
South Wales and Van Diemen's Land, as settlers, it has
been deemed expedient to prepare the following summary
of the Rules which his Majesty's Government have
thought fit to lay down for regulating the Grants of Land
in those Colonies:—

1. A division of the whole territory into Counties,
Hundreds, and Parishes, is in progress. When that divi-
sion shall be completed, each parish will comprise an area
of about twenty-five miles; a valuation will be made of
the lands throughout the Colony, and an avenge price will
be struck for each parish.
2. AU the lands in the. Colony not hitherto granted,
and not appropriated forpublic purposes, will be put up
to sale at the average price thus fixed.
3. All persons proposing to purchase lands.must •trans-
mit a written application to the Governor, in a certain
prescribed form, which will be delivered at*the Surveyor
General's Office, to all parties applying, on payment of a
fee of two shillings and sixpence.
4.. All correspondence with the local Government, re-
specting grants of land, must take place through the same
office.

S. The purchase money is to be paid by;four quarterly
instalments. A discount of ten per cent. will be_allowed
for ready !money payments.
6. On payment of the money, a grant will be made in
fee simple to the purchaser, at the nominal quit rent of a
pepper corn.

7. The largest quantity of land which will be sold to
any individual, is 9,600 acres. The landa generally
be put up to sale in lots of three square miles, or lo9io
acres. Persons wishing to make more extensive pur-
chases, must. apply to ,the Secretary of State, ln writing,
with full explanations of their objects and means.
S. Any purchaser who, within ten years after hip pur-
chase, shall, by
,the employment and maintenance of con-
victs, have relieved the public from a charge equal to ten
times the amount of the purchase money, will have the
purchase money returned, but without interest, It will
be Computed that for each convict employed,
,erid .wholly
Maintained by the purchaser for twelve months,. 161. have
been saved to the public. •
9, Lands may also be obtained, without immediate por-
ches!, but upon different conditions.

. .
10. Persons desirous to become grantees without im-
mediate purchase, will make their application to the Go-
mernor, m Wrjting, in a prescribed form, copies. of which
are to be attained at the Surveyor-General's Office, on
payment of two shillings and sixpence.
41. The largest grant that will be made to any fresh
settler, without purchase, is 2,560 acres. The smallest,
320 acres.

12. 'No grant is to be made to any person without im-
mediate purchase, unless the Governor is satisfied that the
grantee has the power of expending, in the cultivation of
the lands, a capital equal to half their estimated value.
13. A quit rent of live per cent. per annum upon the
value of each grant of land, as estimated in the survey,
will be levied upon all such grants ; but such .quit rent
will not commence to be levied until the expiration of
the first seven years next suCceeding the issue of such
grant. At the expiration of tile above mentioned seven
yowl, the grantee. will become possessed, in fee-simple, of
the grant, subject to the payment of quit rent—or be
will be entitled to redeem such quit rent, if he prefer that
alternative.

14, The quit rent will always "be redeemable at '2O
years' purchase; the power of such redemption commen-
cing at the termination of the first seven years, when such
quit rent is first levied.

15. Every grantee without purchase must, at the expi-
ration of the before-Mentioned term of seven years, prove
to the satisfaction of the Sprveyor General that he has
expended, in the cultivation and improvement ofhis land,
a capital equal to half its value, as that value was estima-
ted at the time of his grant. On failure of such proof,
the land will be forfeited to the crown.
16. in the redemption of his quitrent, the grantee will
have credit for one-fifth pert of the sums which he may
have saved to his Majesty's Government by the employ-
ment and maintenance of convicts ; and for the purpose of
making this allowance, it will be calculated that the. Go-
vernment has eared 104 for each convict employed by the
grantee, and wholly maintained at his expense, on his
land, for one whole year. In the case of such grantees
as may not have an oppOrtunity of obtaining convicts,
and thereby reducing the amount of their quit-rent in the
manner laid down in this clause, every such grantee, upon
showing an expenditure of capital upon his laud to the
amount of five times the estimated value of that land at
the time of its being granted to him, will be entitled, at
the expiration of Seven years from the time of suchgrant,
to claim a reduction of one-half of his annual quit-rent,
whether for the purpose olannual payment or redemption.
17.. No additional grant of land will be mede to any
person who haa not proved, as last mentioned, the tweet-
eery expenditure of capital on the lands already granted
to him, and that be has sufficient capital in hand to enable
him to cultivate to advantage the additional grant for
Which be applies..

18. Pentns receiving a second grant' of land, without
.ptirehasit, will become liable to pay a quit rent upon the
lands comprised in such second grant, immediately from
the date of it; hut any grantee, who can show an expen-
diture of capital upon Ins first grant, to the amount of five
times the estimated value of that grant at the time of its
being Made to hiM, will be entitled to a further grant, at
the rate of two and a half per cent, on the estimated valiie
of such grant, on proving that he has, sufficient capital
still in hand to cultivate to advantage the additional' grant.
19. The same regulatioii will apply to purchasers of
land who may make application for a second purchase, and
who can show that they have laid out capital upon auch
land, to five times the amount of its value. Iwaileh a
case, half the estimated value of the new land will he re-
mitted.

20. Persons desirous to receive grants of land, without
purchase, on terms different from thOse above stated, Inuit
lay before the Secretary of State a full explanation, in
writing, of the circumstances which they may conceive to
exempt them from the fair operation of these general rules.

FRENCH PAPERS.

(Frooi fhe Etoik of 'Friday.)

CONSTANTINOPLE, JULY 12.---Ismail Effend4 formerly
Ambassador to England, Melek Puha • &tie Abiliel
Kadry-Bey, Mollah of the highest titder, and Charlie/4e,
Mallah Ex-flistoriographer of the Empire, Nye been
arrested, and sent into exile in Miriosia. Safi ,Effendi
Khodzaghian, formerly Kutch of the Franceni, then in
the service of France, and Ahmed Effendi, have
,beeti: be-
headed this evening. All these inhabited.the viNgp
Orlikenii, which was considered the centre of opposition
to the reformed system of the Porte. "It appears that in-
discreet proposals, held out in this district, have been the
cause of the severe measures adolited with regard to its
principal members, It is also believed that other causes
have contributed to the banishment of Chammule, olio of
the most distinguished men in the empire, and that power-
ful enemies, jealous of his merit, and the influence which
he had been able to.acquire since the Revolution of 16th
June, have laboured actively to remove him from the pre-
sence of the Sultan. Chamtide had sent to theSeraskier
Aga Pasha a translation, written by hiTh, of a book of
Frederick the Great on War. The Imperial or Vizierial
Decree, which announced the above-mentioned persons to
the Mollah of Magnesia, contained an order to him to in-
struct them in religion.
All the rareitnt!Janissaries' Agas, wilt) had been ba-
nished before the late events, have been recalled, and
raised to the rank of Capoudi Baschis; one of them, a
literary man, has been named Khodzsighien.
The plague has begun to extend its ravages.
Jilts I.s.—The 'tartars arrived from the camp of Res-
chid Paella, after a few days march, have. brought the
news that the Vizier had subdued all eastern Greece, and
that his army was at the gates of Athens. Many execu-
tions still take place—a Galmidzi 'has been beheaded at
Galatea. A former Ousta, who had been marked in the
revolt against the Sultan Selim, has suffered the same fate,
Six ifasseguis Basehis have been banished. The famous
hanker, Zeu Seliaptchi, was executed last night; he was
accused of having employed his influence in favour of the
Baterghean Baschi, his brother Get', and of having dared
to protect him from 'the first condemnation. The other
was,aircused of a secret understanding with the Janissaries
and Russians, and of not having acknowledged that he
held in his hands the fortune of the abolished Odjak. His
property, valued at 130 millions of piastres, has been con-
fiscated.

The young Duke of Richelieu has arrived here from
Smyrna; he has been received, and still lives, at the Pa-
lace of the French Ambassador. He proposes to go to
Odessa. Count Alexander de. Laborde, also, whom he
left at Sthyrns, intended to come to Constantinople in a
very short time, but .by the route of Pergamus, Nice,
Bro►isse, and Nieomedia.

JULY 19.—1 t is the. Ez.Kotil Kyaya, of the abolished
militia Hassan Paella, who .commands on the European
, bank of the Botsphorus—all his servants are composed of
ancient Janissaries, of ferocious aspect : he has for a pot-
ter the Only one of the two Oustas whO have been pardoned.
The third fete of the Combat) Iteirain was yesterday
held in the Grand .11enisch, at Dolma Backche. About
::;,000 troops (1,500 of whom belonged to:the hew raised
corps) romptivred before his Highness in their new uni-
forms.

The Bazerghean Ilaschi, or Commissary-General, and
hanker to the Janissaries, was put to death yesterday. He
left TIO fortune; on the contrary, he was deeply in debt.
The public criers , have in the new procfamation, an
order, that no persons shall appear in the streeta after
sun-set.

Three Ministers of the Porte have been attacked with
the plague in their hotels.
A distinguished Turkish merchant was yesterday be.
headed by order of tire Beraskier, for' having denied, con
.7
tray to positive proof, that he was indebted to a Greek,
who had instituted proceedings against him. 'The Greeks
of the capital acknowledge that, slime the lath June,
they breathe more freely.l they are not now exposed every
day to insults,_ as they were wont before that period.'
3t/Lsr 'Al' The streets of Constantinople are almost: de.
aerted. All the coffee-heues, %whew exception, are shut
up. Thii Measure appears to have' been taken for the
purpose of preventing any meeting of the .people. The
plaice' is still spreading itself. .

France having been translated from the Portuguese Gazette
contains some expressions which ilre not , the original.

lieve that, if there he any change in the Spanish Ministry,
it is not in the sense in which these Jounuils announce
Neither do we attach any more credit to the conspiracy

MADRID, AutiUST 18.--(Private Correspondence by
express.)—On the arrival of the news
.from Portugal, the
first impulse of the King's mind, as well as of the. Conn-
eilo,vas to declare war against that kingdom. Father
Cyril proposed in the name of the Clergy 120 millions of
reels, or about 22 millions of francs, to bear the expenses
of the campaign.
The most imperative orders have been given far the
reparation of the fortress of litulaio, one of the most im-
Itortant places on the.froutiers of Portugal. The English,
,who of possession of it in 1813, were with difficulty ex.
pelted from_ it, not.however before they had destroyed all
the fOrtifications. It is now apprehended, not without
reason, that the Anglo.,Portuguese may get bold of it un-
,der favour of the. new troubles. It has a good garrison at
present of about :100 mitt, excellent soldierti.

Ateording to this officer the .disaffected do not find the
asylum in Spain quite to their taste."
MADRID, AUG. 14.—(Private letter.)—The answers of
the Cabinets of _Vienna and St.. Peterrburgh, relative to
the communications dale Io them on the affairs of Portu-
gal have just heed received. The answer of M. de Nes-
seirode has not yet, transpired—that of M. de Metternich
is to the following effect:---"Considering the situation 'in
which Europeis as this moment, much time and reflection
will be requisite, before we can come to any determinati6ii
regarding POrtugal."
With regard to France I have niready:lnformed you
that she does not wish to interfere the changes
which have just taken place at Lisbon."'
In consequence of this, orders have been sent to all our
Commandants on the frontiers, to conduct themselves with
the utmost circumspection in every transaction at all con-
nected with the political system of that kingdom.
On the other hand, M. Reehacho has written to the
Intendants of Police in the provinces, directing them to
forward a weekly report of the effect which the proceed-
ings in Portugal have on the public mind.• lie at the
saint time renews his order to watch the movements of
the Liberals, but not to harass them in any manner: The
whole garrisOwof this capital has been under arms in the
barracks for two days and two nights. The cause of this
extraordinary measure was a. new plot, which M. Recha-
cho had discovered. .The object of this was to carry off
the King on his passage from Alcala to Madrid, to con-
duet him to the Castle of San Fernando, which is only
about half a league from the high road, and then compel
him to change' all his Ministers, with the exception of the
Duke de l'lnfantittio: • As it appears this plot was to be
'seconded by the Royalist Volunteers, General Carbajal,
whik is inspretor-General of these troops, has in conse-
quence received from the King a severe reprimand.
The letters received to-day from different parts of Por-
tugal, give the most satisfactory accounts of the general
tranquillity of the kingdom.
