Vogan, Arthur James, resides in New Zealand, and is the author of a work entitled "The Black Police: a Story of Modern Australia," published in 1891 by Messrs. Hutchinson & Co., of London. Its main purpose is to pourtray the treatment of the blacks by the whites in the early squatting days of Queensland; and its revelations are asserted to be mainly the outcome of the author's personal observation and experiences in that colony. There are numerous observations from Mr. Vogan's pencil.
