In 1860-61, Robert O'Hara Burke and William John Wills led an expedition of 19 men with the intention of crossing Australia from Melbourne in the south to the Gulf of Carpentaria in the north, a distance of around 1,650 miles (≈2,650 km). At that time, most of the inland of Australia had not been explored and was completely unknown to the European settlers.

The south-north leg was successfully completed (except for the fact that they only reached swampland near the northern coast, not the actual coast itself) but, owing to poor leadership and bad luck, both of the expedition's leaders died on the return journey. All together, seven men lost their lives, and only one man, John King, travelled the entire expedition and returned alive to Melbourne. Free Birthday Supplies.

Beginning

Gold was discovered in Victoria in 1851 and the subsequent gold rush led to a huge influx of migrants. Melbourne became Australia's largest city and the colony became fantastically wealthy. The boom lasted forty years and ushered in the era known as "marvellous Melbourne". The influx of educated gold seekers from England led to rapid growth of schools, churches, learned societies, libraries and art galleries. 400+ TROPICAL LUAU party favors, pinata game set lot 101PC~ TROPICAL LUAU PARTY SUPPLIES~leis,decor,hibiscus, ends Aug-10 12:06 pm PDT.
