has been destined to rear in Australia an animal much more productive of the article of clothing than either the sea-otter or the bear. Already the wool of Australia can be carried round the world, and worked into a poncho by the British manufacturer, to undersell even that of the South American in his own market. Australia, still almost a blank sheet on the map, is in a position to provide for many other wants of the human race. "Where the Roman conquers he inhabits," says Seneca.* Where the Briton inhabits he conquers-and that is a purer praise. He seizes on the wilds of nature and adds them to his empire, by planting there the industry that will fertilize the soil, and the laws that will civilize the people. His invasions are made with the pruning hook and the plough-his levies and contributions are an interchange that is to enrich-his encampments are fairs and warehouses-the corn springs along his path, the city climbs beside his resting place. * Annual Review.
