CAPE
By the Eliza Smith, C.G. WATTS Master, which left Algoa Bay on the 1st October and arrived at the Mauritius on the 16th ultimo, we learn that the ship Neptune had anchored at the Cape on the 19th September. The Neptune had 282 Convicts on board. 7 had died of the scurvey.
As soon as the news of the Neptune having anchored and became known at the Cape, the “Anti Convict Committee” met at midnight to concert measures to prevent the landing of the Convicts. On the following day the Bells were rung and the gongs sounded to spread alarm. At 11 o’clock a memorial was presented to the Governor praying that he would not permit the Convicts to land, or to stop in any part of the Colony. The answer of the Governor was not long delayed; at half past 11 o’clock the Governor replied that the Neptune should remain at anchor in Simon’s Bay until fresh orders were received from the Home Government.
The contractor has refused to furnish provisions to the Castor, and the Neptune was in want of meat and water. The Colonists appeared resolved to force the Neptune to quit their shores.

The reader will find below various opinions from the press of India and England respecting their late defensive operations in the case of the Neptune. The adverse opinions are now harmless. Success has broken their point. The friends of the Colony, however, are respectfully requested to drop the words “revolt” and “rebellion” and the like, though they are not meant by them to convey censure, or to be taken in their legal sense. There was no revolt or rebellion at the Cape. The inhabitants simply declined to be accessory to their own ruin; and neither their allegiance, nor any existing law required of them to sell their goods to the agents of Lord Grey. If the Cape is to be imitated by other Colonies, or other Countries, let them see that their cause is equally good, and their conduct equally peaceable, loyal and legal.
