A PHILOSOPHER AT FAULT . —Tho late Dr . Darwin ' s conclusions as to the future of the Colony , after crossing the Blue Mountains and going as far as Bathurst , aro worth recording , as those of a keen observer who visited tho Colony nearly half a century ago . He says : — " The rapid prosperity and future prospects of this Colony avo to mo , not understanding theso subjects , very puzzling . Tho two main
exports are wool and whalo oil , and to both of these productions there is a limit . Tho country is totally unfit for cauals , therefore there is not a very distant point beyond which tho land carriage of wool will not repay the espouse of shearing and tending sheep . Pasture everywhere is so thin that settlers have already pushed far into the interior . Moreover , the country further inland becomes
extremely poor ; agriculture , on account of tho droaghta , can never succeed on an oxtonded scale ; therefore , so far as I can see , Australia must ultimately depend upon boing the centre of commerce for tho southern hemisphere , and porhaps on her future manufactories . Possessing coal , she always has tho moving power at hand . From the habitable country extending along tho coast , and from her English extraction , she is sure to be a maritime nation . I formorly
imagined that Australia wonld rise to bo as grand and powerful a country a 3 North America , but now it appears to me that such fnture grandeur is rather problematical . " Before his lamented death , no doubt , Darwin had seen cause to modify his early impressions , and to recognise tho gigantic strides made by Australia towards the achievement of a national greatness second only to the North American Republic to which he referred .
