"The latter country is no longer in want of a staple
"commodity; the article of coal, of an excellent kind, being
"formed in abundance in Hunter's River, together with plenty
"of wood, well qualified for the masting of shipping.
"Governor King had formed a small settlement
"at Hunter's River for the purpose of working the coal
"which is of the same nature with that of Newcastle."
Commodities for which by reason of the extra distance there
could not no effectual be any demand could arise either here or elsewhere, were are+
the commodities which it is the nature of this Colony to
furnish. To establish a Colony for the sake of the trade
in such articles I stated as an anti-economical system
as anti-economical as could well be wished. But this
is an improvement upon that anti-economical system.
Even in Newcastle itself where the demand for coal is so
great enormous—for exportation as well as for human consumption, it
is but here and there a mine that is worth worth will pay
for working—at least that would pay for working without
an indulgence from the principles of the those which
are the best conditioned.+ In New South Wales, if
New South Wales in which the great natural grievance and
obstacle to cultivation of succulent vegetables is the superabundance
of wild wood, fuel may be had for next to nothing, the labour employ'd in the cutting it down
for the clearance of the land, being thereby applied at the
same time to this ulterior purpose. In New South Wales,
if the spots for cultivation are chosen with tolerable judgment
there never can can not be any demand for coals for ages: at Newcastle
there is a constant and unceasing demand for coals. If Coals must
be got at New South Wales, a better way of disposing of them
than as in America, and
as in all other uncultivated
coun tolerably
well and
countries.
+ in this country highly
cultivated country
where wood is
so scarce and de
at a continually
encreasing price.
+ Report of the Common
Coal trade Committee.
