‎PARLIAMENT OF GREAT BRITAIN‎

‎Cap. XXXIX. An Act for granting certain Powers and Authorities to a Company to be incorporated by Charter to be called "The Van Diemen's Land Company".‎

‎London: George Eyre and Andrew Strahan 1825. Foolscap pp. 381-392 fine. The Van Diemen's Land Company was founded along similar lines to the Australian Agricultural Company - vast areas and surplus convict labour could be brought to profitable advantage with a Company to attract investors into the fold. The Company was offered vast tracts of land beyond existing settled areas and opened up lands previously unseen by European eyes. This Act follows the decision of April 1825 by the Colonial Office to offer the Company some 250000 acres in the remote northwest of Tasmania for a peppercorn rent. It details the organisation of the company share offers transfers and the like and comprises an important document in the early economic history of the colony. The Van Diemen's Land Company was plagued by poor management practices and charges of favouritism from the Colonial Office. Settlers resented expectation that convict labour be granted to the Company so denying them of much needed labour. Investors lost considerably in the Company until the Victorian gold-rush of the mid 1850's created a market for potatoes grain and timber and revitalised the fortunes of the venture.

‎PARLIAMENT OF NEW ZEALAND‎

‎Collection of 17 reports concerning the Maori Wars Land Settlements and the Administration of Sir George Grey‎

‎Auckland: Government printer 1861 1865. Very good condition. Foolscap folio some tables and a coloured folding map occasional foxing and browning occasional contemporary notes and marginalia in ink; bound in later quarter polished calf with labels. An engaging collection of 17 official reports and papers dating from Sir George Grey's second term as Governor of New Zealand a formative period for European-Maori relations in New Zealand's history. Grey had been recalled after a controversial tenure as governor of the Cape Colony and High Commissioner of South Africa. An able self-promoter Grey had offered to return in the hope that his rapport with the Maori would enable him to quell the emerging troubles and took little time in maligning the efforts of his predecessor Thomas Gore Brown. Grey was an able negotiator but his intentions were suspected both by the Maori and the British commander Lieutenant-General Duncan Cameron who acted with great caution following his efforts to defeat the Maori in southern Taranaki. Cameron whose report On the Native Insurrection is included here suspected Grey and the government of trying to use the British Army to acquire Maori land. On one occasion at Weraroa Grey took to the field himself and with a small force of colonial troops and 'friendly' Maori captured a native supply depot which the Maori promptly evacuated. This was hailed not least by Grey as a famous victory. The papers collected here begin with the Auckland printed Native Addresses of Welcome continuing with Reports on the state of Maori relations and finish with Wellington published Papers on The supply of ammunition to rebel natives and Murder of the Rev. Carl Sylvius Volkner by the Hau Hau Fanatics with page references of the Maori-translated passages in an early hand. Of special interest is the folding coloured map showing the proposed system of roads and settlements for military defence of the North Island included as an integral part of the report titled Memorandum on Roads and Military Settlements in the Northern Island 1863. A full listing of contents in order of binding in this volume: Native Addresses of Welcome to Sir George Grey. Ngatiraukawa and Ngatitoa Tribes. Published Auckland 1861; 14pp. BALNEAVIS Adj.-Gen.
