APPENDIX VI. DESPATCH from His Grace the Dukiof Newcastle, acknowledging the receipt of an Address to

the Queen from the Aborigines of the Colony. Victoria, No. 22. LCOPY.]

SI% Downing street, 18th September, 1863. I have to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch of the 9th June, No. 38, forwarding

an Address to the Queen from some of the aboriginal inhabitants of Victoria, on hearing of the marriage of their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales.

The Address has been laid before the Queen, by whom it was very paciously received, and 1 am to request that you will cause the Aborigines by whom it is signed to be informed that Her Majesty takes great interest in their welfare, and has derived much pleasure from learning that it is their wish and intention to live peaceably for the future.

The presents which you inform me are on their way to England, and which the natives are anxious should be sent to the Queen and their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales, and His Royal Highness Prince Alfred, shall be forwarded as wished when they are received.

I have, &c., NEWCASTLE. -

MINUTE of His Excellency the Governor in reference to the above. Transmitted to the Honorable R. Heales, as Chairman of the Board appointed to watch

over the interests of the Aborigines, with a request that he will take steps for causing Her Majesty's gracious sentiments to be made known to her aboriginal subjects from whom the Address proceeded.

C. H. D, Nov. 17 163.

DESPATCH from His Grace the Duke of Newcastle, acknowledging the receipt of the presents sent to the Queen and their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales, and His Royal Highness Prince AWred, by the Aborigines of the Colony.

Victnria, KO. 30. [COPY.]

m% Downing street, 24th October, 1863. With reference to my Despatch, No. 22, of the 18th September, I have the honor to

inform you that the presents forwarded by the natives for the Queen and the Prince and Princess of Wales have duly arrived, and have been forwarded to Her Majesty and their Royal Highnesses.

The Queen has commanded me to request that you will express to these natives the satisfaction with which Her Majesty has received such assurances of their attachment and loyalty, and the Queen would be glad that the girl Ellen should be assured that Her Majesty has had much pleasure in accepting the collar which she has worked. The Queen trusts that the advan- tage of education may be thus shown to this poor girl, and that she may be encouraged not only to seek her own improvement, but to acquaint the other aboriginal inhabitants of the interest that their Queen, however distant from her, will always feel in their advancement and welfare.

I have also the satisfaction to convey to you an expression of the lively sense entertained by their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales of the kind feeling which prompted the Aborigines to make them an offering of so much interest.

I am desired to add that their Royal Highnesses have received many tokens of good will and affection from the subjects of Her Majesty the Queen, but conspicuous in their estimation are those which show, as in the present instance, that these sentiments animate the native population of so distant and loyal dependencies.

Governor Sir Charles Darling, K.C.B., &C., &C., &C.

I have, &c., NEWCASTLE.

- MINUTE of His Excellency the Governor in reference to the above.

Transmitted to the Honorable R. Heales, as Chairman of the Board appointed to watch over the interests of the Aborigines, in order that the gracious sentiments of Her Majesty and of their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales may be duly communicated to the natives from whom the presents alluded to proceeded.

C. H. D. Jan. 22 I 64.

Transmitted accordingly. H. L. Warde, P. S.
