The design of this work is to supply a brief sketch of the official and political history of New South Wales from the earliest date. Without attempting to indicate the successive steps by which the Colony has attained its present high degree of social and commercial advancement, a great deal of matter is necessarily introduced that will be of assistance hereafter in tracing out the rapid progress of the Colony from the con dition of a rude settlement to that of an enlightened and prosperous community, in which labour and enterprise, wealth and refinement, find a congenial home.
