Why did the government offer a reward in 1851?
Originally in Australia, the government did not offer reward for finding gold, as it was thought the early discoveries would cause unrest among the convicts. The government only offered a reward after transportation of convicts to Australia ceased. Following the end of transportation, the Australian government offered incentives to find gold in order to stem the tide of Australians leaving for the Californian goldrushes. Valuable manpower was being lost from Australia. Therefore, despite early gold discoveries being suppressed, the New South Wales government decided to offer a substantial reward to the first person to find gold. Only the first person needed a reward in order for people to stay in Australia. Once the goldrush began, Australian would-be prospectors concentrated their efforts at finding their "fortune in gold" on Australian soil.

Why did the government want to give Edward Hargraves a reward for his discovery?
The New South Wales government offered a reward for whoever found the first payable gold because too many people were leaving Australia for the Californian goldfields. The colony faced a huge loss of labour, and the government wanted to stem the tide of people leaving the country. Edward Hargraves was lucky enough to be the one who found the first payable gold so the government had to follow through with its promise.
