not two degrees from the mouth of the Knysna, which is a na-
vigable river for vessels of 400 tons, ten miles inland; seventy
miles from the port of Beaufort, and three hours' ride only from
the beautiful district of Swartland. The Land is principally pas-
ture, with a few thousand acres for corn and wine: it is admir-
ably adapted to depasture Sheep. and the Merino Wool is
highly appreciated in England. fhe pasture is quite equal to
fat beasts upon, and the wheat produced upon the arable lands
is not to be surpassed at Mark-lane. There are Vineyards, and
the Cape Wine is very fine. The Madras Cavalry are entirely
supplied from the Cape, as well as the Mauritius and St. Helena.
Slabberts Poort is a most improveable Estate, and in the
hands of Englishmen, or more especially, a few
FIRST-RATE SCOTCH FARMERS,
would soon become invaluable. Its position is one of the first
importance, being on the direct road to the frontier, and in a
position where a profitable business might be carried on inde-
pendent of farming. It is near the forests of the Knysna and
the ports of Massel Bay and River Knysna. The latter port
will probably soon be opened by the completion of a projected
road from Beaufort district to it. It is very eligible in many
other respects; vessels of 400 tons burthen can enter at all
times, and take cargoes on board four miles up the river.
There are a great number of
ENGLISH SHEEP FARMERS,
with moderate capital, say from 1,000/. to 3,003/. each, who
have, within the last two years, located themselves in the
Colony ; and it is not a little gratifying to behold the fine flocks
of well and cross-bred sheep, 30 abundantly scattered about; it
is surprising to see how well the animals look—sheep as well as
cattle. This is a convincing proof that the grazing qualities of
the land are adapted for cattle as well as sheep.
The wool flocks are fast increasing in all parts of the Colony,
and, it is said, from the frontiers alone,

ONE MILLION OF POUNDS, AT LEAST, WILL BE
EXPORTED THIS YEAR,
and a corresponding export from this end of the Colony. The
Cape will eventually, and ere long,
FORCE ITSELF INTO NOTICE,

for the investment of capital and introduction of labour, in spite
of any opposition. Emigration here, with moderate capital,
must be certain and successful.
THE NEW TARIFF IS A MOST IMPORTANT
FEATURE, _ _

and the time of its introduction most apropos. The Colony
will now export in large quantities Salt Provisions—Fat Oxen
are procured there at 41., or 14d. per lb., the hide worth 20s.
This is a brief outline of the advantages in perspective for
men of character and small capital, and if they produce good
references will have the Farms

FREE FROM RENT THE FIRST YEAR,

and then for seven years at
ONE SHILLING PER ACRE PER ANNUM.

The prospect is even more cheering than to Australia, where
such rapid fortunes are being made.
A printed Prospectus, giving an insight into all the capabi-
lities of this Property may be had, and principals will meet with
great encouragement by application to Mr. George Robins's
Offices, Covent- G arden, London.
