'The Trustees of the Public Library, Museums, and National Gallery of Victoria have the honor to report for the year 1876 :- At a meeting of the Trustees held 7th April 1876,' His Honor Mr. Justice ,Barry was re-elected President, and David Charteris McArthur, Esq., J.P., was re­ elected Vice-President; the, Honorable Edward Langton was elected Treasurer; the Sectional Committees were elected. The Sectional Committees were composed of the Trustees whose names appear at the head of each Report. ' The Reports of these Committees and of the respective administrative officers are annexed, from which full particul~rs of the general pl'oceedings and the internal economy of each section of the institution may be learned. In December the Honorable Sir Francis Murphy, upon leaving the colony for Europe, resigned his position as Trustee. At a special meeting of Trustees called to consider- 1. vVhether the number of Trustees should b.e 'fixed i 2. Wll€ther any, and if any, what provision should be made for the disquali­ fication of Trustees: it was resolved- 1. That, in the opinion of the Trustees, the number ,of Trustees should not exceed twenty-one. 2. The Trustees propose to make a regulatiop. for their attendance, which they will submit for the approval of the Governor in Council. The attention of the Trustees has been' directed by the Building Committee (see Report) to the defective ventilation of the Reading-room of the Public Library, and they recommend that, in view of the urgent necessity for increased accommodation for the Library, application be made to the Government for a grant sufficient for the completion of tl;le Great Hall, and for raising the r60f of the present Reading-room in accordance with the original design. With these recommendations the Trustees entirely concur: The accommodation required for the purposes of the National Museum at 'the University is wholly inadequate. A vote of £2,000 was included in the Estimates of last year for additional buildings; but after careful consideration, and in defer~nce to the opinion expressed in Parlfument in 1865, the Trustees have determined to re~om­ mend that suif;able buildings should be erected on the land vested. in them? \lnd the collection removed thither as 'soon as possible. For this purpose the Trustees have applied to the Government for a vote on the next Estimates. (Signed), D. C. McARTHUR, Vice-President.

The Fourth and.Fifth Schedll1es show the number of books received as donations and under' the Copyright J\ct, with the flill particulars respecting them. The Sixth Schedule gives the circulation of volu.mes ftom the Lending I,ibrary, the towns to which the books have been forwarded, and the number of persons within whose reac~ the books have been brouO'ht.'" . 1>' - , -The. more important donations, as shown in Schedule IV., are those contributed ,by the departments of the EngJish Government, by the Master of the ·Rolls, the Commissioners of () Patents, the :qritish lVIuseum, the Governor-Gener:alof India, the Lieutenant-Governors of the Provinces, the departments of the Government of Canad(1 and other Colonial Possessions of the Crown, from the Government of the United states, particularly that of Rhode Island, several , Libraries of San Francisco, Boston, and New York, the· Smithsonian Institute, the Governments of Germany, Belgium,. and Holland, and, the Universities of Giessen and Heidelberg, by the .Athenreum and CObden Clubs, and the Corporation' of lVIelbourne.· ' The donation made. by the Government of the United States is unusually large.· Many contributions also are due to the liberality of the Commissioners for the Philadelpliia Exhibition. The Government of California has also hugely contributed. The interest thus shown in the institution is attributable to the exertions of Sir Redinond Barry, who h:;ts brought the Library under' the notice of all kindred institutions in America visited by him. .' . The donation of the Athenreum Cluh and of the Melbourne Corporation claims also especial notice; the latter consists. of 20,.and the former of 351 volumes and pamphlets. The Unitarian Association of America also pre~ented 34 volumes. Among the gifts made by private donors may be mentioned that by Colonel Champ, of .41 MSS. and vocabularies relating to the Aboriginal tribes Of the Australian Continent. The enum:eration now finished,;1s compa~ed with that of 1876, gives the following com­ parative returns :':'-', Yolumc9 of Books. l'al-t., Pamphlet., &c. , 1876 , .. 73,202 1876' 14,378 1877 ..... 76,044 1877 13,775, Showing an increase of 2,239. This increase is mainly due to the liberality of the donations as referred t9 above. The Co~urriittee :have decided to purchase from local hou,ses for six nionths as an experi­ ment, and an o~der for 687 ~olumes is now in course of Epxecution by 'Messrs. George Robertson, Mullen, and Bailliere. , . , . -' _ '. The catalogue or the Library referred to in the last Report is still unprinted. The Committee again recommend the Trustees to ask the Chief Secreta.ryto place on the Estimates a snI? sufficient for the publication of this work, which is often asked for and much. needed by the public. The present enumcrH,tion gives 28 ai:\ the number of missing; and 14 as the number of· mutilated- works. - - The Committee again have to call attention to the want of proper ventilation in the galleries. An experiment of placing a ventilator in the ceiling has been made, and though the atmo.sphere in the immediate vicinity was somewhat cooled by this means, bnt little perceptible difference in the general temperature was made.

  • A Time Bomb Lies Buried: Fiji's Road to Independence
    1. Introduction In his Christmas message to the people of Fiji, Governor Sir Kenneth Maddocks described 1961 as a year of `peaceful progress'.1 The memory of industrial disturbance and a brief period of rioting and looting in Suva in 1959 was fading rapidly.2 The nascent trade union movement, multi-ethnic in character, which had precipitated the strike, was beginning to fracture along racial lines. The leading Fijian chiefs, stunned by the unexpectedly unruly behaviour of their people, warned them against associating with people of other races, emphasising the importance of loyalty to the Crown and respect for law and order.3 The strike in the sugar industry, too, was over. Though not violent in character, the strike had caused much damage to an economy dependent on sugar, it bitterly split the Indo-Fijian community and polarised the political atmosphere.4 A commission of inquiry headed by Sir Malcolm Trustram Eve (later Lord Silsoe) was appointed to investigate the causes of the dispute and to recommend a new contract between the growers, predominantly Indo-Fijians, and the monopoly miller, the Australian Colonial Sugar Refining Company (CSR). The recommendations of the Burns Commission Ð as it came to be known, after its chairman, the former governor of the Gold Coast (Ghana), Sir Alan Burns Ð into the natural resources and population of Fiji were being scrutinised by the government.5 The construction of roads, bridges, wharves, schools, hospital buildings and water supply schemes was moving apace. The governor had good reason to hope for `peaceful progress'. Rather more difficult was the issue of political reform, but the governor's message announced that constitutional changes would be introduced.

  • THE STUDY of SATURN's RINGS 1 Thesis Presented for the Degree Of
    1 THE STUDY OF SATURN'S RINGS 1610-1675, Thesis presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Field of History of Science by Albert Van Haden Department of History of Science and Technology Imperial College of Science and Teohnology University of London May, 1970 2 ABSTRACT Shortly after the publication of his Starry Messenger, Galileo observed the planet Saturn for the first time through a telescope. To his surprise he discovered that the planet does.not exhibit a single disc, as all other planets do, but rather a central disc flanked by two smaller ones. In the following years, Galileo found that Sa- turn sometimes also appears without these lateral discs, and at other times with handle-like appendages istead of round discs. These ap- pearances posed a great problem to scientists, and this problem was not solved until 1656, while the solution was not fully accepted until about 1670. This thesis traces the problem of Saturn, from its initial form- ulation, through the period of gathering information, to the final stage in which theories were proposed, ending with the acceptance of one of these theories: the ring-theory of Christiaan Huygens. Although the improvement of the telescope had great bearing on the problem of Saturn, and is dealt with to some extent, many other factors were in- volved in the solution of the problem. It was as much a perceptual problem as a technical problem of telescopes, and the mental processes that led Huygens to its solution were symptomatic of the state of science in the 1650's and would have been out of place and perhaps impossible before Descartes.

Photocopying and general reproduction for teaching purposes is permitted. Reproduction of this material in part or whole for commercial purposes is forbidden unless written consent has been obtained from Queensland University of Technology. Requests can be made through the acknowldgements section of this pdf file. A Note for Teachers This series of National History Posters has been designed for individual and group Classroom use and Library display in secondary schools. The main aim is to promote in children an interest in their national history. By comparing their nation's history with what is presented on other Posters, students will appreciate the similarities and differences between their own history and that of their Pacific Island neighbours. The student activities are designed to stimulate comparison and further inquiry into aspects of their own and other's past. The National History Posters will serve a further purpose when used as a permanent display in a designated “History” classroom, public space or foyer in the school or for special Parent- Teacher nights, History Days and Education Days. The National History Posters do not offer a complete survey of each nation's history. They are only a profile. They are a short-cut to key people, key events and the broad sweep of history from original settlement to the present. There are many gaps. The posters therefore serve as a stimulus for students to add, delete, correct and argue about what should or should not be included in their Nation's History Profile.
