PROCLAMATION

BY HIS F.XCELLFNCI LACIILAN NIACQUARRIE, ESQ. CAP-
TAIN-GENERAL. AND GOVERNOR IN CHIEF OF HIS MA-
AInTY'S TERRITORY OF NEW SOUTH W4LES AND ITS
DEPE‘DINCIESI &C. ACC. &C.

41 His Majesty having felt the utmost regret and
dispeasure, on account of the late tumultuous pro-
reediugs in this his colony, and the mutinous con-
duct of certain persons therein towards his late repre-
sentative, William Bligh, Esq. then Captain General
ant Commander in chief in the said Colony, in order
to mark such his disapprobation of the said proceed-
ings, has been graciously pleased to appoint me his
representative in the said territory at New South
Vales and its dependencies, commanding and re-
qniring me, previous to the opening of his royal corn-
Mission for that purpose, to reinstate the said William
IPA. Esq. in the office and situation of Captain Ge-
neral And Governor in Chief of this his colony, in case
he should be resident in the same at the time of my ar-
rival. His Majesty, through his graci•nts ans'ety for
we)fare and happiness of his loyal subjects of New
Wales, for the complete restoration of quiet
and harmony, and to remove every motive for fut.lire
disturbances, has also been graciously pleased to di-
rect me in signify to the 'aid William Bligh, Esq.
his Majesty's pleasim., that he, the said Wm. Bligh,
Esq. alunild, at the expiration of 44 hours after being
reinstate d. receive me as his successor in the oilice of
Captain General a:id Governor in Chief of the terri-
frry of New South Wales and its dependencies, and
administer to me the oaths usually administered on
such occasion.

of Excellency the Governor laments extremely
that the absence of the late representative of his Ma-
jesty in this colony, and the necessity of his immedi-
ately taking upon himself the command of the same,
in obedience to his Majesty's ccmmands, has render-
ed it impossible for him to carry his Majesty's orders
into literal execution, as his Excellency was most
anxiously desirous to do. But in order to fulfil his
Majesty's intentions as completely as present circum-
stances will permit, his Excellency the Governor has
thought proper, by this his proclamation, publicly
to make known, that nothing but the reasons above-
mentioned have prevented him from reinstating
William Bligh, Esquire, in the effice of Captain!
General and Governor in Chief of this territory and
its dependencies, and from acting in all respects con-
formably to his Majesty's commands. And he feels
it a painful duty to be thus impelled publicly to an-
trainee hii Majesty's high displeasure and disappro-
li item of the mutinous and outrageous conduct dis.
-played in the forcible and unwarrantable removal of
h;• 1 ite representative William Bligh, Esq. and of the
ttimultii. its pro:eedings connected therewith.
" His Excellency the Governor avails himself of
t 1,1% pportaiity of expressing his earnest hope that
'harmony union will now be restored to the Co-
lony ; that all party spirit which has unfortunately
resultt d from the lite unhappy disturbances will end,
and that the higher cl..sses will set an example of
sub. rdination, morality, and decorum; and that those.
in an inferior station mill endeavour to distingnish
themselves only by their loyalty, their soht iet,x,and
their industry, by which means alone the wilare
happiness of die community can be effectually pro-
!rioted.
Given under my hand, at Government House,
Sydney, this Ist day of January, 1810.

We are happy to observe the increase of commerce in this city.
There are now in the river opposite the city, and what Is called
the cr,ss or tomr port, upwards of 41 sill of ships, barques, and
.htigs ; without ore new ship of n-0 tons, and tyo
or ihri,e brigs launched and beginning to rig,ar an4o d above '2O sail of
I schooners and sloops, emplord in the coasting nr river tcatle.—
The increase of the boats front Lake Ontario, with pot and pearl
ashes, junk, flour, &e. is far beyond our most smiguine expecta-
tion!. Only two years ago the first bear cf this kind came to thee
city. They carry in general about ten tons. On Friday last there
were six of these boats discharging their loading at one time. It
is an undeniable tact, that th,i trade and comm• rte of these pro-
jvieeces have increased as mpitlly within two years, as ever they,
did in any part of the United States in the sante time and propor-
don of population.
