not two degrees from the mouth of the Kny snit, which is a na-
vigable river fix 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. The 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 Wino 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 tie
hands of English:nen, 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 Hassel Bay and River Kilian*. The latter port
will probably soon be opened by the completion of a projected
road from lieaufort district to it. It is very eligible an 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 t,OOO/. to 3.0001. eae4, who
have, within the last two years, located themselves in the
Culonv ; and it is not a little gratifying to behold the fine flocks
of well and cross-bred sheep, so abundantly scattered ab sot ; it
is surprising to see how well the animals look—sheep as well as
cattle. This is a convincing proof that the grazing sualities 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

being actuated to this course, not only bye, MO 04
duty towards the colonists, but by the clear weeps
tion that every addition to the population end wealth
of those settlements must enhance proportionately the
value of the adjacent lands of the Company, although,
as is obvious, outlay directed to such object. must
interfere with the means of deriving a large imme-
diate return from your invested capital. But your
Directors are convinced: hat in the administration of
affairs of such magnitude as those of the Company,
it would be the most-sighted policy to grasp at
immediate large profit, at the expense of neglecting.
the permanent improvement of your possessions;
and they are happy to state that they have beenthe
able
to give full effect to these views. During In
months under review, whilst emigration to older
Colonies in Australia has been almost entirely
dsus-
pended, that of this Company has been mane on
without interruption, and upon a great scale. The
result of these energetic proceedings has bean most
favourable. The vessels chartered for the cons eyance
of freeemigrants have also carried out a large. pro.
portion of capitalists—the employers of la hour.
The latest accounts from your settlements repr, sent
them as eminently flourishing. Dispatches reek ived
on the 6th inst. from Nelson state that the Ii gads
reserved for the Company in that settlement l ave
already acquired considerable value from the gent anal
prosperity of the colonists. And during the pea iod
under review, an arrangement has been made s%ith
her Majesty's Colonial Department, which will ; aid
no less than 100,000 acres to your possessions.
" Still, as your actual income from the sale of l and
has been but small ; as the general aspect of the tii nes
is not yet materially improved ; and as it is obvior tsly
prudent, under such circumstances, to husband.y our
resources until there shall be a clearer prospect A' a
return of general prosperity ; your Directors aro a
opinion that you will do well to limit the dividend_ for
the half-year ending the Ist of October instant, so
2/1/. per cents. being at the rate of .5/. per cent. per
annum. They are convinced that by taking this
cautious course, you will not only add to their power
of carrying on your affairs with energy and ad van-
tage, but that the public at large, contrasting this
forbearance with the vigour and magnitude of ;Four
measures of emigration, and with the undimini shed.
support extended to the settlements which you have
planted, will be disposed to regard .jour proceedings
with increased favour, and to repose the,greateis con-
fidence in your judgment and integrity."
J. H. LANCE, Esq., moved that the Repbrt be
adopted, and that a dividend of two and a. half per
cent. for the last half year be agreed to. lie thought,
the dividend of ten per cent. which had been pre-
viously granted ought never to have been made, and
he could assure the meeting that he had hesitated long
as to whether or not he should be connected with the
Company in consequence of that exorbitant grant..
He thought the present proposition, vhich have a
dividend of five per cent , quite sufficient, and as much
as the Company could properly grant.
Mr. ARDEN seconded the motion. The large and
handsome dividend of last year, he must confess struck
him with astonishment, because he thought it calcu-
lated rather to damage than benefit the Society. He
thought a dividend of five per cent. for an incorpo-
rated Company like the present was quite sufficient,
The CHAIRMAN having put the question, declare&
the resolution to be carried unanimously.
The CHAIRMAN said that it atrorcled him the
greatest satisfaction to see the Report adopted unani-
mously. The Directors had taken the greatest pos-
sible pains in attending, not only to the interest of
the Proprietors, but the public at large, and he felt
.no doubt that the time was not far distant when they
would be amply repaid for all that they had done.
With respect to the dividend that had been declared,
he would only. say that he fslt convinced that it was
more for the interest of the Company that the public
should be benefited than that the dividends of the
Company should be swelled. At the same time he.
might be permitted to say that his firm belief was,
that the funds of the Company were in so flourishing
a state that they might continue the late dividen6,
but the Directors had thought it better and more far
the interest of the Company and the public to adopt
the course they had now 'imposed, and he had no do abt
that when they met again the Directors would, be
able to lay before the Proprietors the strongest evi-
dence of the propriety of the present proceedinr/s. He
wished to state, before he concluded his observations,
that the Directors had received the most liavourable
accounts from their last established colony, Nelson,
from which they were induced to hone that it would
become as prosperous as its sister colonies, Wellingtola
and New Plymouth.—(Cheers.) It might also be
gratifying to the Proprietors to know that no fewer
than 8,473 emigrants had been conveyed by the Csau-
pany to where he hoped they would find a prosperous
and happy home.—(Cheers.) Another most gr: etifv-
ing fact which he had to announce to the Proprietors
was, that coal of a quality equal to that fauna at
Newcastle, and also lime, had been discovexed near
Nelson. This would be a source of great, vealth to
the colony, and would aid greatly in the. establish-
ment of steam navigation,(Ctseess.)
The CHAIRMAN, in answer to a qucstion from Ms;
Watson, said that the Plymouth Company had znergm
into the present one.
Mr. 'WATSON trusted that the Directors. vAsuld
take into their consideration the expediency of rest-
ing a port at New Plymouth, which wass much
wanted, in order to carry on trade there With 'success.
The CHAIRMAN said that the Directors had
not been unmindful of the subject allue,ed to -by
the Honourable Proprietor. They bad sent out
moorings, wb;_tli had been of great service ; and so
soon as Ow. funds of the Company, arising from the
land ssles, were suffielent,after providing properl v

amounting to about 100 families, ha-ve, during Wed-
nesday and Thursday, been ejected from their dwel-
ling-houses, which are the property of their late em.
ployers. The men have continued to remain ont as
strike, and the proprietor, we believe, has only p
ceeded to e,;ect them after giving full warning. A.
party of the Glasgow police was seat out to prevent.
any disturbance; but so far as we learn, no

and correspondence, published first in a certain paper,

then sent to New York and published, for/ the pur-
pose of deprecating the President and Mr. Webster.
We learn further that the whole transaction will soon.,
be brought to light.—Ameriean Paper.
