Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lectures on Gold for the Instruction of Emigrants About to Proceed to Australia
I appear before you to-night, ladies and gentlemen, as the representative of Professor Ramsay, who is absent from London on the duties of the geological survey. In his absence Sir H. De la Beche has requested me to give the following Lecture, because, having some years ago visited Australia, and seen something of all its colonies, and parts of the coast not yet settled, I could speak with a little more confidence than one who was an entire stranger to it.
