Excerpt from Two Voyages to New South Wales and Van Diemen's Land: With a Description of the Present Condition of That Interesting Colony The same benevolence which shed a ray of celestial light over the poor African's horizon, has also held up the Gospel beacon to the benighted sinner of its own climes, and forbidden despair.

But that wakeful care which ever attends the proceedings of the truly good, sought out with anxiety a further means of relieving their miserable condition; and thus that useful em ployment on board the Hulks, and, latterly, a better regulated management in the Houses of Correction, have originated and tended to produce the present vi sible beneficial effects.
