‎BURKE & WILLS VICTORIAN PARLIAMENT‎

‎1861-2. Victoria. Burke and Wills Commission. Report of the Commissioners appointed to enquire into and report upon the circumstances connected with The Sufferings and Death of Robert O'Hara Burke and William John Wills the Victorian Explorers. Presented to Both Houses of Parliament by His Excellency's Command‎

‎Melbourne: John Ferres Government Printer 1862. Title-page a little stained otherwise a good uncut example. Foolscap folio 104 pp. printed on light blue paper edges uncut; half calf. Official report of the Royal Commission appointed to investigate the Burke and Wills disaster: 'now very scarce and of high interest' Australian Rare Books. When news of the tragedy reached Melbourne public interest in the affair reached near hysterical proportions and a Royal Commission had been set up even before King returned to Melbourne. The commissioners apportioned blame for the debacle three ways: the expedition's over-enthusiastic some would say incompetent leader Robert O'Hara Burke; the careless overseer William Wright; and the indecisive Exploration Committee of the Royal Society of Victoria. Although it concluded that Wright appeared 'to have been reprehensible in the highest degree' Burke was also chastised for displaying 'a far greater amount of zeal than prudence.overtaxing the powers of his party' and also for his failure to keep a regular journal. The appendices of this report totalling some 28 pages are of great historical interest as they print Burke's instructions from the Exploration Committee numerous despatches from Wright and Burke a good part of the journals of Wright and Wills the narrative of John King and William Brahe's report of June 1861.

‎LONGITUDE PARLIAMENT OF GREAT BRITAIN‎

‎An Act for rendering more effectual an Act made in the Twelfth Year of the Reign of Her late Majesty Queen Anne . with regard to the making Experiments of Proposals made for discovering the Longitude‎

‎London: Mark Baskett 1762. Folio title pp. 675-678; disbound yet fine. This Act empowers the Commissioners of Longitude power to expend sums up to £2000 on experimental projects. As such it significantly expands the scope of the Board to rigorously test plausible proposals from a wide range of applicants. This large experimental budget accommodated the Jamaica trial of Harrison's chronometer while providing widespread impetus to other contenders. The language of the Act reflects contemporary confidence in the capacity of science to overcome the age-old riddle: 'there is great reason to expect that by continuing to encourage ingenious Persons to invent and make further improvements and experiments in order to discover the said Longitude such discoveries may at length be produced and as will effectively answer that end and thereby contribute very much to the advantage of the Trade and Honour of this Kingdom.'.

‎WHITBY GREAT BRITAIN Parliament‎

‎An Act for the more effectual repairing and preserving the Piers and Harbours of Whitby in the County of York‎

‎London: Thomas Baskett 1750. Very good. Folio pp. 661-672 pp. including armorial title; stitch-sewn evidence of having been disbound at some time. An interesting 1750 Act of Parliament relating to the port of Whitby just as it was on the cusp of becoming one of the great shipbuilding ports where famous Australian and Pacific vessels including Cook's Endeavour and First Fleet ships the Golden Grove and the Fishburn were constructed. This Act was instrumental in the repairing of the harbour at Whitby and instituted a series of works which were paid for by the bustling coal trade. The harbour's central importance to Cook's career in particular is well known as it was while working out of Whitby that the great mariner established his credentials and also became enamoured of the sea-going properties of Whitby colliers.

‎Parliament of Great Britain‎

‎Papers relative to the Separation of the Moreton Bay District from New South Wales and the Establishment of a Separate Government‎

‎London: Eyre and Spottiswoode 1858. Tall quarto vi 66pp. last blank with a folding handcoloured map measuring 550 x 405 mm. very good condition. Important collection of parliamentary papers detailing the separation of the Moreton Bay district from New South Wales the precursor to the declaration of Queensland as a discrete colony in December 1859. The papers include a significant Arrowsmith map of the region proposing new border divisions coloured by hand. In 1851 the first Moreton Bay representative was appointed New South Wales parliament; by 1858 nine members represented districts north of the Clarence River. The isolation of the settlement from Sydney brought a sense of neglect alongside serious administration problems motivating squatters and free settlers towards political self-determination. The large folding map bound into this report was printed by renowned London cartographer John Arrowsmith. It is dated January 1858 and titled Map shewing the proposed boundary between News South Wales and the Moreton Bay Colony and the proposed division of that Colony into Electoral Districts. The new border between the two colonies is handcoloured red and yellow and runs along the 29th parallel until following the course of the Barwon and Dumaresq rivers. Electoral districts north of the border are coloured in green while those in New South Wales are yellow. The map details the entire coastline from the mouth of the Clarence River at Shoal Bay to Cape Gloucester near present day Bowen above the 20th parallel. The report presents a rich and varied collection of documents illustrating both sides of a contentious debate. Petitions for and against separation from all the northern districts are included some of which shed valuable light on local aspirations for political self-determination. The issue of debt features prominently given the colony of New South Wales carried the considerable burden of £2234700; accordingly several of the submissions included in this report discuss how this is to be shared with the nascent Moreton Bay Colony. Likewise the resumption of transportation is openly broached in the report - an important issue given the history of Moreton Bay as a destination for violent recidivists until abandoned for this purpose in 1839 in favour of Port Arthur. Although the township at Moreton Bay had existed as a free settlement for some years squatters desired a return of transportation to solve the shortage of labour. Ultimately the colony of Queensland was formed without a resumption of transportation to the eastern seaboard of Australia. Eyre and Spottiswoode unknown‎
