If I narrate in extenso my experiences during the native insurrection in the French colony, it is that the incidents set forth show thoroughly the manner in which the authorities of France in the South Seas have treated the natives with whom they have been brought into contact; and it shows how the natives of the New Hebrides will be treated if those island's should be annexed by France.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Cannibals Convicts: Notes of Personal Experiences in the Western Pacific For many years of my life I have travelled to and fro in the Pacific Ocean, first as a vagabond globe-trotter, and afterwards as a journalist. It has been my privilege to make acquaintance with many dusky monarchs and chieftains, from King Kalakaua, of Hawaii, to Boe Vagi, of New Guinea. In a recently-published volume of travel, the author sneers at the ignorance displayed by some of the Australian papers with regard to the Islands of the Western Pacific, and he is rather severe upon newspaper correspondents generally. On behalf of the Australian press and English journalism I join issue. In our own day, in the sphere of travel, the best work has been done by journalists. Henry M. Stanley solved the question of the Dark Continent; and ill-fated O'Donovan enlightened us about Merv. We make the history of the future; that of Our Own Time was written by a journalist. There is hardly a part of the civilised or uncivilised globe which has not been described, and its secrets laid bare, by some member of that noble army of Special Correspondents who, taking their lives in their hands, amidst battle, murder, and sudden death, provide not only news, but solid information, for the breakfast-tables of the world. I have had the good fortune to be the only journalist who has visited New Caledonia, the Isle of Pines, and the New Hebrides. If I narrate in extenso my experiences during the native insurrection in the French colony, it is that the incidents set forth show thoroughly the manner in which the authorities of France in the South Seas have treated the natives with whom they have been brought into contact; and it shows how the natives of the New Hebrides will be treated if those islands should be annexed by France.
