Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Account of a Voyage to New South Wales A return of all occurrences during the night was to be made to the judge-advocate; and the military were required to fur nish. The watch with any assistance they might be in need of, be yond what the civil power could give them, They were provided each with a short staff, to distinguish them during the night, and to denote their office in the colony; and were instructed not to receive any stipulated encouragement or reward from any individual for the conviction of offenders, but to expect that negligence or misconduct in the execution of their trust would be punished with the utmost rigour. These watchmen, it seems, were of necessity chosen from among ethe' convicts; and as it was hoped some of them would feel a pride in being distinguished from their fellows, which might give birth to 9a returning principle of honesty, notwithstanding the jeers and scorn of some of their abandoned associates; Mr. Barrington's con duct justified this reasonable presumption.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of New South Wales But in the present Edition the reader will find the still more im portant extracts from the recent voyages of m. Labillardiere, who was sent in search of the unfortunate La Perouse; and that of M. Peron, who visited Sydney between 1800 and 1804, while upon a voyage of discovery made by order of the First Consul of France in the Southern Hemisphere. This enlightened naturalist's remarks, so creditable to the genius and exertions of the British nation, are suffi cient to shew how astonishingly the colony has improved since Barrington published his History, Voyage, &c. &c. Almost every subsequent navigator, it will appear, has either found out some new islands, or something new in the manners of those already known.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Historical and Statistical Account of New South Wales, Vol. 1 of 2: From the Founding of the Colony in 1788 to the Present Day Almost the whole of the following work was written at sea, on the author's repeated voyages from Sydney to London; the materials having been previously collected for the purpose on these occasions in the Colony. For having, unfortunately, had to spend a large portion of his life at sea, the author has found it expedient and necessary, independently altogether of other and higher objects, to carve out beforehand sufficient literary labour for each successive voyage, to redeem that portion of his life from the mere blank which it might otherwise pre sent, as well as to escape the listlessness and languor into which any person without an absorbing employment is, in such circumstances, likely to all.
