Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Fisher´s Colonial Magazine and Commercial Maritime Journal, Vol. 4: September-December, 1843 Having buffeted the waves and outlived the storms of colonial distress, we spread all our canvass for a new voyage of discovery: and with the zealous co-operation of our spirited publishers, we have no apprehension of missing the haven to which the honourable ambition of doing good in our vocation, like the unerring polar star, directs our prow. Many connected with our colonies are aware, that since the granting of systems of self-government to several of our possessions, politics have become an object, nay a profession, with some of the most talented of our colonists; this consequence, easily foreseen, has had a most injurious influence upon the colonial press, from which much valuable information has hitherto been always gleaned. There is now little more to be found in the columns of the most leading of our colonist journals, than parliamentary debates, accounts of approaching and contested elections, and in some instances biographical sketches of candidates, whose regenerated lives were their only recommendation to the confidence of one country to which the offended laws of another had limited their future labours. This regretted change, in the character of our very best and most valuable colonial papers, we have endeavoured to provide against, by the arrangement already alluded to - an arrangement calculated to insure the most authentic reports of trade, commerce, and banking, in each of our numerous dependencies.
