AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The 'Flaneur' muses on Sydney's recent political and social occurrences. He directs his attention to changes in the composition of the New South Wales legislature, the minting of coins in Sydney, and residual animosity towards the Irish regarding the March 1868 assassination attempt on H. R. H. Prince Alfred. In relation to the latter, the 'Flaneur' quotes the full text of Gerald Griffin's poem 'The Orange and the Green'.
