The Who observation In that what is said about the number and comparative
good behaviour of the Convicts emigrating to our
East Indian territories after the expiration of their
respective terms, supposing it to have more or less truth
in it . may afford some useful inferences.
That the number of them should be very considerable
— that it should rise for example to any such
number of as a hundred — or even fifty seems
scarcely compatible with the indications afforded by
lap the correct and authentic statements of Captain
Collins. In a situation of such novelty a number
less than 50 would be sufficient I should suppose
to produce a sensation adequate to the statement in
that which taken as it would naturally be from true
and caring observation. Your Lordship may perhaps
be in possession of information of a more precise nature, on
this head as well as on many others.
1. In the first place the greater the number of these
immigrants, the less the of increase in the number
of settlers, and especially of settlers of the thriving
sort: the sole basis of the expectation in regard to future
improvement.
