SYDNEY, SUNDAY, APRIL z 7, 1103.

It muff afford peculiar pleafure to every contem-
plative mind, to trace fcience, and the arts, gradually
opening upon Civil fociety, and polilhing and improv-
ing chafe remote parts of the habitable world, which
but for the bold and adventurous genius of difcovery.
might, to the end of time, have remained a wild and
ruthlefs walk. Here. anticipating Fancy dwells with
delight upon the fcene which (hall one day be occu-
pied with bufy commerce, and her lifter arts, whilft
there the beholds edifices and warehoufes *rife, to in-
vite the Eons of merchandise and traffic from the
further corners of the Globe. May this apply to
New South Wales. and Sydney be the mart to ma-
, lize the flattering image !
1 On Sunday left St. John's Church, at Parramatta,
was opened, and Divine Service performed by the
Rev. Mr. MAIIIDIIII ; who delivered an excellent (a-

many folid advantages that mull be necefarily de-
rived to this Colony, from a proper obfervaace of
the duties of Chrillianity, and a Religious Winfbip.
The conconrfe of perfons that attended from all
parts of the Colony, and the becoming filence that
prevailed, added much to the folemnity of. the fer-
vice. Many Ladies of the fill refpellability were
prefent, fome of whom went purpofely from Sydney;

On Tnefday latt a fete was given on board his
Majefly'b thip B•rr•co, by Captain Karr. at which
were prefent his Excellency the Governor and Mrs.
KING ;--Licutcsant, Coloscl.asd Mrs. Ecrassoh

\vitt feveral other Officer!, Civil, Military and Natral•
and the wives of thofe who are married. The La
dies were received by Mrs. KENT, who did the ho-
nours of the table. At four o'clock the company fat
down to a hofpitable and plentiful dinner. In the,
evening the band *of the New South Wales Corps
was introduced, dancing took place, and at a late
hour after (upper, the company withdrew, highly gra-
tified and amufed with their entertainment. •

The inhabitants of Hawkelbury feelingly obferve,
that although they generally have to lament a rife in
the Sydney markets, yet they never experience much
change from their fall.

A RUM EFFECT.
" My wife's fo •ery bad," cry'd
4 I fear (he'll never hold it,"
" She curs her bed."—" Mine's worfe," rays Wits,
" The jade this morning sou) It."

A very cut ions tlruggle for rani or precedence took
place fome few days ago in Sydney :—Tuna Ladies in
their carriages (Mrs. WHITTLE and Mr. SION A WAY)
met in a narrow parfage or alley, when k was abfo-
lutely neceffary that one of them should give way.
They both contended, however, with much obainacy.
A wag very pertinently exclaimed—" Ladies, I (hall
loon put an end to your difpute, if you (top till I ex-
amine the Nrtvgate Calendar."
A Correfpondent Pays, " Upon peruling a para.
grapn in one,of your papers, which fuggefted the pro-
priety of converting the Rocks into an academy for
Tumblers, I rather conceived that you might, with an
equal promile of fuccefs, recommend fume parts of
the BO for an improvement in the talent of Sowing,
as there much inftralioo might be expedled from the
*alliance of the accompliated Kangaroo. This extra-
ordinary idea infinuated itfelf upon my Repping into
a houfe of Harmon" a few nights ago, in which an
illegitimate defcendant of Apollo fat moving his elbow
to a group of carpenters, whole motion rendered it dif-
ficult to determine whether he fcraped to their danc-
ing, or they hopped to his fiddling. I/Id/eve they were
all human beings;—yet am perfuaded, that if they
aaually were fo, they were indebted for their (till in
the art to the teachers I have herein taken the liberty
to recommend."
At ten o'clock this morning the New South Wales
Corps and Inhabitants attended at the place of exe-
cution, and Robert fillet, the criminal under fentence
of death, and James Haney, left the gaol; Jillet ap-
peared at fir n little affeaed at his fituation ; but
when the cart reached the Provifion Store, for rob.
bing of which he had been convi(led, he burn into
tears, as he alto did at the upper end of Pitt's-row,
when pains by the avenue which led to his former
habitation. Here the recolleaion of hi's family over.
whelmed him with an anguifh, which, if poffible.
heightened as he approached the intended place of
execution. Hailey had read feveral paffages of
fcripture to him on the way, to which the criminal
paid much attention, but afterwards upbraided him
in harfh terms. declaring that be bad not affilled in
concealing the calk found in the cooperage (the
cir-
cumnances of which are Rated in the trial of the pri.
Toner in our lag week's paper). When arrived at
the awful fpot, the prifoner got eat of the cart, and
was received by the Rev. Mr. Mamma, 'who had,
attended him while under fentence, and who now
emphatically performed the duties of his &sake.
Jillet again afcended the cart, and, after betted been
delivered over to the executioner, his reprieve was
received and publilked by the Provo& MarfbalL—
Convulfed with unfpeakable joy and gratitude, for fo
nue:peeled an extenlion of mercy, be fell motionlefs,
and for fame moments continued in a nate of infenfi.
bility ; when he recovered, he was taken back to his
late confinement.

James. Hailey, late cooper at his Majeßy's Rorer,
now heard his fentence read, in purfualce of which
he received aoo lathes under the gallows t an exam-
ple by which we trufl others may be deterred from
the consisitEon of Each offences.
The Rine attendants at Sydney, Paramatta, Cattle-
hill, and Hawkeibnry, were indifcrin;inattly ordered
to attend on the occafion, to be fpedators of the pa-
nithment.
