Government Howe, Sydney, May 31, 1819.
Ills Excellency the Governor having received and perused
the Journal of a Tour lately made by Charles Throsby, Esq. by
the way of the Cow Pastures to Ilathurt.t, in the newly disco-
vered country Westward of the Blue Mountains, takes this early
opportunity publicly to announce the happy result cf an enter-
prise which promises to conduce in a very eminent degree to the
future interest and prosperity of the Colony.
The communication with the Western Country having been
heretofore over a lung and difficult range of mountains, alike us-
' genial to man and cattle, from their parched and barren state, it
became an object of great importance to discover another route,
whereby those almost insurmountable barriers would be avoided,
and a more practicable, and consequently less hazardous, access
effected to the rich and extensive plains of Bathurst.
Ills Excellency adverts with pleasure to Mr. Throsby's ge-
neral report of the capabilities, qualities, and features, of the
country intervening between the Cow l'astures and Bathurst ;
which he represents to be, with few exceptions, rich, fertile, and
luxuriant ; abounding with flue runs of water, and all the happy
varieties of soil hill, and valley, to render it nut only delightful
to the view, but highly suitable to all the purposes of pasturage
and agt iculture.

The importance of these discoveries is enhanced by the consi-
deration that a continuous range of valuable country, extending
from the Cow Pastures to the remote plains of Bathurst, is now
fully ascertained, connecting those countries with present settle-
ments on this side the Nepean.
His Excellency the Governor, highly appreciating Mr. Thros-
by's services on this occasion, offers him this public tribute of
acknowledgment for tke zeal and perseverance by which he was
actuated throughout that arduous undertaking; and desires his
acceptance of one thousand acres of land in any part of the coun-
try discovered by himself that he may choose to select.
By command of his Excellency,
(Signed) J. T. CAMPBELL, Secretary.
By the Shipley, that had sailed on the Ist of April,
but has not yet arrived, between two and three hun-
dred troops were sent home, which has left the co-
lony with a force of only five hundred men for its
protection. All the benevolent institutions, espe•
cially the Orphan School, founded by the excellent
Lady of their forgoer Governor, Captaia KING, are
producing the best effects on the rising generation.

ALL SAL/MS.—Holiday at the Beak.

Flemish and Hamburgh Mails arrived last night ;
and this morning a Dutch Mail.
In consequence, as it appears, of the Resolutions
passed by the German Diet of 20th September, an
Ordinance has been issued at Hanover, enforcing an
old Edict of GEorics I. and afterwards renewed by
GEORGE 11. subjecting every Publication throughout
the Dominions of Hanover, and if the Publisher be
an Hanoverian subject, every work to be published
beyord those dominions, to a preliminary Censorship.
There are further restraints imposed on republicatiuns
of works printed in other parts of Germany, and on
Newspapers and Periodical Journals, for which we
refer to the article itself.

On the 28th October, in the Second Chamber of
the States-General, a Statement and Plans relative to
the Finances was submitted by the Minister. The
ordinary disbursement (calculated for ten years) is
estimated at 65,876,000 florins per annum : the ordi-
nary Revenue at 65,916,000 florins. The extraordi-
nary Expenses for the year 1820, is estimated at
10,629,000, and the means to cover them at 10,673,000
florins. A Sinking Fund is to be created, from the sale
of National Domains, to meet former deficiencies.

The roads between Rome and 'Naples are still
much infested with robbers ; who take their victims
with them, and keep them till ransomed.
The shameful outrages against the Jews have
extended themselves to Dantzic, where the garrison
was compelled to remain during three whole days
under arms.

The Paris Pagers to the 30th ult. have arrived
since our last.

Mr. BROUGHAM is said to have arrived at Paris.
According to general rumour, he is cn his way to
Lyons, to give the Princess of WAtzs the benefit of
his counsel.

It is affirmed, that in the list of seated letters from
the KING to the newly-elected Deputies, inviting
them to take their seats in the Chamber, there is not
one addressed to the Abbe GREGOIRE. The Abbe,
if another report may I* believed, has, in conse-
quence, resolved to anticipate the opposition to his
admission, by a timely resignation.
According to the latest news received in Paris,
from Spain, there had been a heavy fall of rain at
Cadiz, which was expected to have a beneficial effect
in allaying the virulence of the contagion.

PRIVATE LETTER.

~ PARIS, OCTOBER in.

4. We cannot precisely trace the Politico-electrical
Conductor that extends from Paris to London; but
there is such a sympathy between the acts of the two
Governments, that such a conduct clearly exists.--
Your wiseacres remove Lord Furzwittlam from his
Lieutenantcy, and wish to act over again the system
of vigour by which you lost America. The fact of
his Lordship's dismissal for seconding and promoting
the right of the People to petition, has been the
signal for a similar act here. A Society has existed
for these two or three years, of the Friends of the Li-
berty of the Press ; its object was known and avowed ;
Peers, Deputies, and the most distinguished Persons
in Literature and Science, were Members of it ; the
meetings were held at the Members' houses : the
object of the Society was to procure, by legal means,
the legal Rights of the People, promised by the
Charter, and no more.
4, On the 23d, M. GETANDAtT, who is at the head
of the mail and stage-coach establishment, was sum-
moned to appear before the Judge of Instruction,
for having held the Meeting at his house; he is a
rich and highly respectable man, whom even the
Government can only reproach with one crime, that
of having lent Bonaparte 522,000, on his return from
Elba, and which, we believe is still owing to him.
The prosecution has created a strong sensation, and
several persons solicit to be prosecuted with him, as
Members of the same Society!! In my next I shall
be able to apprise you of the resolutions taken by the
Society, which met yesterday (and will continue to
meet) on the subject."

Prince LEOPOLD visited Oxford on Thursday.
The University conferred on him the degree of LL.D.
and the Corporation presented him with the honorary
freedom of the city.

Mr. LITTLEWOOD, the Kings Messenger, attired
at the Foreign Otfice on Saturday, with dispatches
from Fetersburgh ; notwithstanding the fall of snow
so generally experienced in this country on last
Thursday week, the messenger saw none on his way
home, even in the more northern latitudes.
Foreigners in Paris have of late been much
surprised at the absence of that disgusting smell, so
much complained of formerly, in their houses. This
agreeable change is the result of an invention as ef-
fective as it js important, and which has received the
most unqualified and universal approbation. The Go-
vernment of France, and several Learned Societies of
that kingdomhave examined the apparatus,and investi-
gated its consequences ; the scrutiny has not been in a
single instance, to the detriment, but rather to the
higher credit of the inventor. Several experienced Eng-
' lisp Chymists and Agricidturids have joined in the
general praise; and we are happy to find that its
introduction into this country, under the most encou-
raging auspices, has bop aecured by a pawn; ro-
(end), obtained.
