September 1792. p.235. Very few of the Convicts at Norfolk Island
whose terms of transportation had expired, were found desirous
of becoming permanent settlers; the sole object of the major
part appearing to be, that of taking ground for the purpose
of raising by the sale of the produce a sum sufficient

might assume a less military appearance, and the trial
by jury, ever dear and most congenial to Englishmen, be
seen in New South Wales" Such is the dilemma: — the prosperity of of the settlement depends upon a limited government: — but the very existence of it depends upon an absolute one of this the founders of it were sensible: I am no less so.

the return of principle in some .... but it has oftener been his
task to shew the predilection for immorality, perseverance in
