		Whyte and the colonial treasurer, Charles Meredith (q.v.) were the first to go on ministerial tours, and as a result vigorous efforts were made to open up the country by constructing roads and bridges.
		The colonial office was unable to understand that convict labour could not be made to pay its way, and Wilmot was made responsible for the faults of a system he had no power to amend.
		He was also in the forefront of the struggle with Gipps concerning generally the powers of the council and the governor on the land question, and in 1846 moved and carried an address to the governor acquainting him that the council could not entertain a bill he had originated.

		Looking backwards and forwards from this point, the French colonial Empire went through two major phases, the original expansion of the 17th and 18th centuries, and the conquests of the 19th century.
		While French colonialism may have had less of the racism and racial separateness that now seem characteristic of British practice, it nevertheless was rather more intent on imposing French "civilization" and less tolerant of taking "no" for an answer -- while the British condescended to allow quaint native customs and institutions to survive, within limits.
		A curious survival of French colonialism is the French Foreign Legion, the Légion Etrangère.

	Armoria patriæ - Natal Colony
		What Paterson had produced was an illustration of a colonial seal on a standard pattern first used in the 1839 Great Seal of Newfoundland, a design which, Brownell points out, was “ideally suited for engraving, but certainly not for the use to which it was also put, namely as the distinguishing device on flags”.
		Unlike the Cape Colony, where Dutch was given a limited recognition, the language had (from 1843 onwards) no status whatever in Natal, where English was the only official language.
		In September 1845 Natal was incorporated as a separate district of the Cape Colony and ruled by a handful of officials under a lieutenant-governor who answered to the Governor of the Cape.

		In the colonies, this conflict was known as King George's War (1744-1748), because it involved the family connection of German born and German bred George I. To a large extent, it was fought in Europe, but in the New World, it took place in Canada.
		With assistance from the northern colonies, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and an army of civilians, led by William Pepperrell, aided by the British, fleet, the impossible was accomplished.
		Governor Shirley now turned to plans for the invasion of Canada by a colonial militia, but the British military were not about to allow such an independent venture for their colonial subjects.

		Newport was one of the five most important settlements in the 13 colonies, sharing that distinction with Boston, New York, Philadelphia and Charlestown.

	My Kinsman, Major Molineux - by Nathaniel Hawthorne
		AFTER THE KINGS of Great Britain had assumed the right of appointing the colonial governors, the measures of the latter seldom met with the ready and general approbation which had been paid to those of their predecessors, under the original charters.
		It was near nine o'clock of a moonlight evening, when a boat crossed the ferry with a single passenger, who had obtained his conveyance, at that unusual hour, by the promise of an extra fare.
		The youth, one of whose names was Robin, finally drew from his pocket the half of a little province-bill of five shillings, which, in the depreciation of that sort of currency, did but satisfy the ferryman's demand, with the surplus of a sexangular piece of parchment, valued at three pence.

	The Muster
		The Governors Island Ferry departs from Slip 7 of the Battery Maritime Building located adjacent to the Staten Island Ferry in Lower Manhattan.
		She creates colonial handcrafts, Civil War memorabilia, and 19th-century weapons, often arranged to transform the exhibition space into that of a historic home or period room.
		Emerging from that experience, the Muster on Governors Island is the most complex project she has undertaken thus far, broadening the Civil War metaphor to reflect on current events, and involving potentially hundreds of participants.

	Alexander Hamilton
		Hamilton's natural inclinations were then, as always, toward the side of order and established government, but a visit to Boston in the spring of 1774, and a close examination of the questions in dispute, convinced him of the justice of the cause of the colonies.
		A great meeting was held in the fields, 6 July, 1774, to force the lagging Tory assembly of New York into line.
