Account of an Expedition to the Interior of New Holland (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Account of an Expedition to the Interior of New Holland These were two men of the name of Muller; one a German, settled in England, and the other his nephew, the son of an Englishwoman. The former appears to have been one of those unions of enthusiastic wildness, brilliant genius, and sanguine credulity which periods of great excitement - such as the commencement of the Reformation - are often found to call forth. He possessed great eloquence, and a power of ex ercising an unbounded influence over minds of a certain description His nephew, with much of the uncle's eccentnc1ty, united a much clearer judgment, and seems gradually to have esta blished a complete ascendancy over the mind, first of his uncle, and ultimately of all his followers; and to have used his influence in a manner which indicates most enlarged public spirit, and a great mixture, at least, of political wisdom.
