Half a Century of Australasian Progress, a Personal Retrospect: Part I, Itinerary of the Tour of a Revisit; Part II, a Series of Articles on General Questions of Australasia, the Colonies, and the Empire Generally (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Half a Century of Australasian Progress, a Personal Retrospect: Part I, Itinerary of the Tour of a Revisit; Part II, a Series of Articles on General Questions of Australasia, the Colonies, and the Empire Generally
One of the latest as well as pleasantest anticipa tions of an United Empire, as well as the lesser question of an Australasian inter-colonial Federa tion, has been the invitation from the Dominion to her sister Australia for a meeting on behalf of their mutual commerce. Such approaches from one section of the Empire to another are so proper in themselves, and of so enlivening a character they are in variably so cordially received, as far at least as a very limited experience yet goes - that the surprise is that they should not be oftener suggested. The Empire girdles the earth in the common bond of English race, and in the common spectacle of a vigorous progress. The various parts have a natural gravitation towards each other. It is surely worth while to have now and again a special conference to consider how still further to extend these natural relations, and to diminish obstacles and distance.
