This book was released on 2017-01-18 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Australia and New Zealand, Vol. 1 of 2 The loyalty of the colonies is very strong. In England, to speak the truth, we do not know much about loyalty. We believe in our form Of govern ment; we believe in the Crown and in Parliament; and we believe in the practical sense Of the people at large. We are satisfied that we are doing well, and we think that should we make any material change, - such as would be the substitution Of a democratic republic for the monarchy we possess, - we should improve ourselves not at all, and might injure our selves very much. We value trial by jury, primo geniture, and an hereditary House Of Parliament, because they have helped to make us what we are; and we are generally contented with our position. This may be better than loyalty, but it is not loyalty. Now and again some spring may be touched, as when the Queen's household was attacked, or when the Prince was lying ill but the feeling thus induced is not the normal condition Of the British mind. England's greatness is too near to us at home to create senti ment - but in the far Antipodes loyalty is the con dition Of the colonist's mind. He is proud Of Eng land, though very generally angry with England because England will not do exactly what he wants. He reconciles this to his mind by telling himself that it is the England Of the past of which he is proud, and the England Of the present with which he is angry. But his hopes are as bright as his memories, - or, at any rate, less dim than his insight into the evils Of the day, - and he still clings to the prospects Of Eng land in the future. He does not like to be told that he is to be divided from her. He is in xmmm'ya. He always speaks Of England as home. He remem bers the Queen's birthday, and knows the names Of the Queen's grandchildren. He is jealous Of the fame of Nelson and Wellington; and tells you in praise Of this or that favourite colonial orator, that - he would be listened to in the House Of Commons. All this is true loyalty, - which I take to be an adherence to cer tain persons or things from sentiment rather than from reason.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of New Zealand, Vol. 1 At one time it was hoped that several persons of great ability and high character, who had amassed much recorded information and had lived long in New Zealand, would combine the results and give them to the world. But that hope has vanished. I learned from one of them, who went to New Zealand in 1839, and lives there now, that on the occasion of a visit to Europe he abandoned the idea of publication, and destroyed his manuscripts. The failure of that project, and encouragement from those concerned in it, embolden me to present the following narrative compiled with a diligent endeavour to test every statement by reference to the most authentic sources of information.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Australasia, Vol. 1: Australia and New Zealand All place names beginning with Mac or M' have been spelt in full as Mac, beginning the second syllable with a small letter. This system has been adopted after reference to Dr. J. Scott Keltie, with whose approval I feel safe. It is often now impossible to determine how the stockman who first surveyed a country from Mac 's Look-out, or first watered his flock at Mac 's Water-hole, preferred to spell his name. When we find two brothers spelling their name, one Macallister and the other m'allister, geographers may be excused for adopting a uniform spelling of this prefix.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Zealand and Its Colonization, Vol. 1 Missionary but the pioneer of the destruction of its heathen people? Is a problem still waiting its solution in New Zealand. On what principle, with reference to native rights, have these Islands been erected into a British Colony? And what are the obligations contracted by the Crown of England in subjecting them to British rule? To what extent have the native race adopted the habits and usages of civilized life? And what pro gress has been made by them in industrial pur suits? What is the prospect of their permanent preservation? And what means have been taken for saving them from that process of exter mination under which uncivilized tribes have too commonly disappeared when brought into contact with civilized men? To these, and questions such as these, the following pages will be found to contain a faithful answer. Contemporary events, however, are seldom rightly discerned or fully appreciated, even' by their principal actors; but when the subject shall have become a matter of History, the Colonization of these Islands and the commingling of the Races will be read with all the interest of romance.
