Overview

Excerpt from On the Economic Progress of New Zealand: A Paper Read Before the Section for Economic Science and Statistics of the British Association, at Exeter, 24th August, 1869 It will be seen that I have dealt mainly with the economic aspect of the question as the occasion required; indeed my limits admitted only of the briefest allusions to higher and more imperial considerations. In the discussion of our colonial policy which must shortly ensue, these considerations will doubtless be urged by others more competent than myself. We seem to be entering upon an important crisis in our rela tions with the Australasian colonies. If we are to lose these colonies, I trust it may be after a full and fair discussion, so that the separation may take place with our eyes open, and not blind folded as we now are. It appears to me that nothing can be more serious than the indifference which has of late prevailed on ques tions affecting our Colonial Empire.
