To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was hinted that Mr. Higinbotham helped him in the composition of many of these, in which the arguments for his actions are expressed with great ability. Later in life it is certain Mr. Higinbotham would not have consented to enter into argu- ment with the Colonial Office; but his regard for the Governor was great, and it is possible that in this as in other matters he tried to help him. Sir Charles Darling held firmly that it was the duty of a governor to govern according to the advice of hi...s ministers. As long as he held to that doctrine he was safe. Unfortunately, instead of standing by that simple axiom he defended his conduct as Governor, that is, the advice of his Ministers, in detail. Defence in detail is entering into a fight ; and in a fight, defence soon becomes attack. In December, 1865, Sir Charles received a petition to the Queen signed by twenty-two Executive Councillors. It may be as well to explain that the Executive Council in Victoria consists of all who have been Cabinet ministers, unless they have resigned their seats on the Executive.
