On 20 July 1843, he was appointed to the new post of <a href="/wiki/Chief_Justice_of_the_Gambia" title="Chief Justice of the Gambia">Chief Justice of the Gambia</a>. After four years there, amidst long breaks for his health travelling through the United States and Canada, he intended to hand in his resignation to <a href="/wiki/Henry_Grey,_3rd_Earl_Grey" title="Henry Grey, 3rd Earl Grey">Henry Grey, 3rd Earl Grey</a> and resume practice at the English bar.

His expeditions opened up the interior of Africa from the <a href="/wiki/Gambia_River" title="Gambia River">Gambia River</a> to the <a href="/wiki/Senegal_River" title="Senegal River">Senegal River</a>. The military expeditions which he accompanied against native tribes who had long oppressed the traders of the river were a success and extended the limits of British commerce in the region. On one visit to a native king an ambush was laid for him, and he narrowly avoided being assassinated. In return, the British government sent four hundred men to inflict a summary chastisement, with MacDonnell acting as Captain of one of the volunteer companies.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1852, (when he was also gazetted Companion of the <a href="/wiki/Order_of_the_Bath" title="Order of the Bath">Order of the Bath</a>) he was nominated as <a href="/wiki/Lieutenant_Governor" class="mw-redirect" title="Lieutenant Governor">Lieutenant Governor</a> of <a href="/wiki/St._Lucia" class="mw-redirect" title="St. Lucia">St. Lucia</a>, but without taking up the post he was sent, 10 January 1853, to become administrator and <a href="/wiki/Captain_General" class="mw-redirect" title="Captain General">Captain General</a> of the island of <a href="/wiki/Saint_Vincent_(island)" class="mw-redirect" title="Saint Vincent (island)">St. Vincent</a>.

Shortly before leaving for Australia, in 1856 he was made <a href="/wiki/Knight_Commander_of_the_Order_of_St_Michael_and_St_George" class="mw-redirect" title="Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George">Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George</a> by <a href="/wiki/Queen_Victoria" title="Queen Victoria">Queen Victoria</a> at <a href="/wiki/Buckingham_Palace" title="Buckingham Palace">Buckingham Palace</a>. </p><p>Soon after his arrival in Australia, MacDonnell was involved in heated debate over the composition of the legislature; MacDonnell favoured a single chamber while the majority of colonists preferred a two-house system, which brought him the support of the conservatives, but united the liberals and radicals against him. Eventually a two-house system prevailed, although the <a href="/wiki/Upper_House" class="mw-redirect" title="Upper House">Upper House</a> had a property franchise. Difficulties between MacDonnell and his officials led to several changes of government. He extended railway and telegraph communications within the <a href="/wiki/Colony" title="Colony">colony</a> and opened up valuable copper mines on the <a href="/wiki/Yorke_Peninsula" title="Yorke Peninsula">Yorke Peninsula</a>, while increasing the progress in agricultural and pastoral pursuits. </p><p>MacDonnell showed little concern for the Australian working class, holding that charity fostered sloth and pauperism. He was particularly impressed with the settlers from Germany, and he predicted that the colony had a great future for producing wine. In his seven-year term the acreage under wheat doubled in South Australia and he argued that farmers with capital would succeed as long as their methods did not rob the soil. </p><p>MacDonnell's passion for exploration greatly aided in opening up the interior of Australia, in particular the <a href="/wiki/Murray_River" title="Murray River">Murray River</a>, and he developed many of the natural resources of the colony. He travelled widely in the colony and in 1859 led a small party to investigate country around the northern lakes and claypans, riding 1,800 miles (2,900 km) in three months. He maintained that <a href="/wiki/Charles_Sturt" title="Charles Sturt">Charles Sturt</a> and <a href="/wiki/Edward_John_Eyre" title="Edward John Eyre">Edward John Eyre</a> were overrated as explorers as they seemed "generally to have a knack of getting into the most dismal places and finding barrenness from Dan to Beersheba". He instead urged the colonists to support the efforts of <a href="/wiki/John_McDouall_Stuart" title="John McDouall Stuart">John McDouall Stuart</a> to cross the continent. </p><p>MacDonnell was regarded in Australia as both 'powerful and hospitable'. He was an enthusiastic member of local rifle and archery clubs and keenly interested in the volunteer defence movement. He also identified himself with most of the literary, artistic and philanthropic organizations. He saw himself as a leader and innovator, and though genial, at times his bustling energy dismayed <a href="/wiki/Adelaide" title="Adelaide">Adelaide</a> society. As a patron of South Australian culture he encouraged students who could not travel abroad to continue their post-primary schooling, and with his customary dash personally examined candidates and donated prizes, but his plan collapsed after he left the colony. He left South Australia, 4 March 1862, for a holiday in Ireland before taking up his next post. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Governor_of_Nova_Scotia">Governor of Nova Scotia</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Richard_Graves_MacDonnell&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Governor of Nova Scotia"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>On the recommendation of his predecessor, <a href="/wiki/George_Phipps,_2nd_Marquess_of_Normanby" title="George Phipps, 2nd Marquess of Normanby">George Phipps, 2nd Marquess of Normanby</a>, MacDonnell was appointed <a href="/wiki/Lieutenant-Governors_of_Nova_Scotia" class="mw-redirect" title="Lieutenant-Governors of Nova Scotia">Governor of Nova Scotia</a> from 28 May 1864, until October 1865, taking up residence at <a href="/wiki/Government_House_(Nova_Scotia)" title="Government House (Nova Scotia)">Government House (Nova Scotia)</a>.
