Text Appearing Before Image:
I urged him strongly to culivate his great literary gifts as shown
by his juvenile production—"Letters from High Latitudes."
I wanted him to write an adequate life of Sir Walter Raleigh,
but the misfortunes of his latter days had broken his high spirit.
When the Governor is a very able man his influence is all
powerful. Responsible Government was introduced into this
Colony by Sir Charles Darling. The way he held absolute
sway over his Ministers, and ruled the Colony, was something
very remarkable. Later in life he became Governor of Victoria,

without the Magistrate's sanction or report. I paid off their

every case where they had released prisoners without consulting
me as the convicting Magistrate.
