Abstract
This article examines the early trade ventures between the Australian Colonies and China with an emphasis on some attempts at regularisation by colonial Parliaments; the difficulties faced by early mariners and other sea going officials are illustrated by a case drawn from the judgments of the Supreme Court of Tasmania in 1843.
