Mr. Osborne sailed from Portsmouth on the 15th June 1832 in the ship Planter of 368 tons, with 200 convicts for Sydney NSW. The first subject to which he refers is, naturally the treatment and behaviour of the convicts on board. On this subject we make the following extracts - 'On embarkation, the prisoners were surprised to find good biscuit, beef, port, pease, flour, raisins, lemonade, wine etc issued to them, in lieu of the coarse brown bread and indifferent beef sometimes supplied by contractors for the hulks. The convicts have hitherto behaved tolerable well, and are now beginning to enjoy themselves after the first brush of sea sickness. Having gone out with Irish convicts on a former occasion, I find a sad difference between the English and them. The one polished, artful, and vicious, poor Pat simple, innocent, and as tractable as a child, with a civil word you can do any thing with Paddy. In one of my voyages from Cork, there happened to be among the rest a father and two sons for sheep stealing. Old Murtagh was advanced in life, the sons fine athletic young men. Two days after embarkation, I observed Rory, the eldest, eyeing me very wilfully, but apparently unwilling to trespass. I beckened him aft and desired to know what was the matter, hoped the old man kept up his spirits, etc. Emboldened by the manner, he simple begged 'if your honor would be pleased to divide the bolts between me and Dennis for the ould man's getting tender, God help him, and Im afear'd he wont get to the end of the journey any way'. I felt ashamed at having overlooked the poor old man so long (he was four score but I did not know he was so old). and instantly removed the old mans irons amidst the prayers and benedictions of the whole party. - Printed in the Colonial Times
