Understanding the Reasons Behind the Failure of Wakefield's Systematic Colonization in South
When Colonization Goes South: Understanding the Reasons Behind the Failure of Wakefield’s Systematic Colonization in South Australia Edwyna Harris Monash University Sumner La Croix* University of Hawai‘i 3 December 2018 Abstract Britain after the Napoleonic wars saw the rise of colonial reformers, such as Edward Wakefield, who had extensive influence on British colonial policy. A version of Wakefield’s “System of Colonization” became the basis for an 1834 Act of Parliament establishing the South Australia colony. We use extended versions of Robert Lucas’s 1990 model of a colonial economy to illustrate how Wakefield’s institutions were designed to work. Actual practice followed some of Wakefield’s principles to the letter, with revenues from SA land sales used to subsidize passage for more than 15,000 emigrants over the 1836-1840 period. Other principles, such as surveying land in advance of settlement and maintaining a sufficient price of land, were ignored. Initial problems stemming from delays in surveying and a dysfunctional division of executive authority slowed the economy’s development over its first three years and led to a financial crisis. These difficulties aside, we show that actual SA land institutions were more aligned with geographic and political conditions in SA than the ideal Wakefield institutions and that the SA colony thrived after it took measures to speed surveying and reform its system of divided executive authority.

Hazelwood School – a Catalyst for Reformatory Education?
HAZELWOOD SCHOOL – A CATALYST FOR REFORMATORY EDUCATION? Daniel Wale Abstract Hazelwood School was established at the beginning of the nineteenth century, in Birmingham, by the Hill family. This paper argues that the ethos and unique practices adopted at the school by the Hills, together with their individual activities, which were influenced by a series of socially-minded individuals with whom they came into contact, can be seen as contributing to the choice of Birmingham as the location for the first national conference on the reform of juvenile criminals, held in 1851, and to the development of the reformatory and industrial schools that were later established to accommodate criminal children. Additionally, the efforts of successive generations of the Hill family, who continued to work to improve the treatment of neglected and criminal children, were so progressive that their influence extended beyond Victorian Britain. In 1851 Birmingham hosted the first national conference on the reform of juvenile criminals (Barnard, 1857, p.307). Later legislative changes eventually abolished the jailing of children but why did Birmingham host this first conference? My research into juvenile crime in Victorian Birmingham has led me to examine Hazelwood School as being a potential catalyst for both this and the subsequent development of reformatory education. Historians and educationalists have examined the school before, though only for its influence on mainstream education. The practical application of many of the subjects offered was noteworthy when compared to traditional teaching methods. Michael Sadler (1923, p.5) highlighted this and John Adamson (1930, pp.272-273) underlined the unusual diversity of its curriculum.

Sir Rowland Hill
а л А г Л, / & 3 / / f j J/- ÿ SIR ROWLAND HILL i ' | / ANÜ vi "JAMES CHALMERS, THE INVENTOR OF THE ADHESIVE STAMP. A REPLY TO MR. PEARSON HILL. PATRICK CHALMERS, AU TH O R OF "THE POSITION OF SIR ROWLAND HILL MADE PLAIN.1' LONDON : KFFINGHAM WILSON, ROYAL EXCHANGE. 1S83. PRICE SIXPENCE. SIR ROWLAND HILL. Is a pamphlet lately published by me, entitled “ The Position of Sir Rowland Mill Made Plain.” I showed that hitherto there has been a misapprehension with respect to the position of Sir Rowland Hill, so far as “ invention ” enters into his proposals— that the principles and figures of the Penny Postage scheme of 1837, hitherto understood to have been, in the main, of his own con- leption, and so handed down by him to us, were, from beginning to end, merely a copy from a pre-existing document, to the pro visions of which in his writings he avoided reference, and by this means obtained the credit of having invented principles of the highest value— of having improvised a system which he only copied and applied, but to which credit he had no rightful claim. My present publication is now with the object of showing that ■ he “ Adhesive Stamp,” the adoption of which, at a critical moment, saved the Penny Postage scheme, by which the scheme has been carried out, and the value and indispensable nature of which are universally acknowledged, is equally an “ adoption” from second ând of the invention of another man, and to the merit of which Sir Rowland Hill is no more entitled than he is to the merit of having Rented the principles of the Penny Postage scheme itself.

The Classical Economic Stage
© Copyright, Princeton University Press. No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. CHAPTER ONE The Classical Economic Stage I. The Period of Classical Economics In any detailed discussion of a particular body of ideas, it is perhaps helpful to begin by indicating to the reader the period during which those ideas were of importance. There can be little doubt that the heyday of Classical economics was during the years 1800–1850. Delineation of the period during which Classical economics developed as a body of thought, came to be the ruling approach to economics, ultimately experienced a measure of stag- nation and decay, and was ﬁnally supplanted by the young and vigorous development of neo-Classical economics in the “Marginal Revolution,” is however a good deal less easy. At one end it is usual to date the era of Classical economics as begin- ning in 1776, with the publication of Adam Smith’s mighty Wealth of Nations. Such an approach has a strong prima facie appeal, but closer ex- amination raises doubts about it. On the one hand Classical economics owed a great deal to David Hume in certain critical areas, especially that of monetary theory. The relevant part of Hume’s Essays was published in 1752; and it is therefore doubtful if too much weight can be placed on the year 1776. Indeed the inﬂuence of Hume upon Smith cannot be ignored; they were close friends, and Hume was appointed by Smith to be his lit- erary executor.1 In addition the work of Adam Smith himself did not sud- denly spring from nothing in 1776.

A Penny All the Way
6 d . N e t A PENNY ALL THE WAY THE STORY OF PENNY POSTAGE BY FRED. J MELVILLE PRESIDENT OF THE JUNIOR PHILATELIC SOCIETY LON DON : Î 4 , S u d b o u r n e R o a d . B r i x t o n . S W ______ • !______________________________________________________________________ P/ioto] I Passano. THE RIGHT HON. SYDNEY BUXTON, M.V. A P enny all the W ay. INTRODUCTORY. n preparing this short story of penny postage at a time when popular interest in the subject is aroused by the inauguration of penny postage between Great Britain and the United States, the writer has given his chief attention to the more obscure phases of the develop ment of the idea of penny postage. Rowland Hill and his great struggle to impress both the Post Office and the Treasury officials with the main arguments in favour of Uniform Penny Postage are matters which are dealt with in our histories. But of his namesake, John Hill, who tried hard to induce the Council of State to look favourably upon a similar plan nearly two hundred years earlier, nothing is known. The name of William Dockwra is known only to students of postal history and to philatelists. Yet he established and conducted what was in many senses a better system of local postage in London in 1680, at the rate of one penny per letter, than was in existence in 1840. After Rowland Hill came one Elihu Burritt, “ the learned blacksmith,” whose memory is cherished in the United States, and who, long before his own country had adopted Uniform Penny Postage, urged Great Britain to give the world what he termed “ Ocean Penny Postage,” which was different to, yet anticipatory of, Imperial Penny Postage and Universal Penny Postage, which became the questions of later years.
