4.9/5 (12923 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from The Aborigines of Australia: Being an Account of the Institution for Their Education at Poonindie, in South Australia I propose in the following pages to give some account of the first formation of the Natives Institution of Poonindie in South Australia. It was established in the year 1850 for training and Christianizing some members of the aboriginal race, and it is now (in 1889) still carrying on its beneficent work. But it seems right that I should, in the first instance, explain how it came about that I, having gone to Australia in the same ship with the Bishop of Adelaide when he first went out, to be his Archdeacon, should afterwards have devoted myself specially to work amongst the natives, allowing the work properly pertaining to me as Archdeacon to fall almost into abeyance. My explanation must carry me back to the time of the emancipation of the slaves in the West Indies. At that time I thought much and deeply upon the great responsibility which rested upon us, as a nation, with reference to those heathen races, which, in various parts of the world, had become subject to British rule. As regards the slaves just alluded to, I had very great doubts whether the measures which were being adopted for the amelioration of their condition would be really beneficial to them if those measures should be terminated by the mere Act of Emancipation.
