Datil the end of the year 1819, they continued to be is rte. mend both at Port Dalrymple and Hobart Town. The regu lations respecting their labour and their food, payment of wages aid clothing, are the same as those Hat prevail in New South Wales: but the convicia generally partook more largely of animal rood in Van Dienima's Land, and reteirrd later and more frequent rations of motion, and less of pot k. Their clothing, on the other hand, was neither so good in kind, nor had been so regularly supplied; and the pikes Were considerably higher than those at Sidocy. The curt of a winter and summer suitor clothing for a convict is esti mated at Si. 7(1; his subsistence at 111. 21.• ' and these, with his wages, of IL mate an annual charg e o f 241. 9s. 7J. to a settler for every convict atstned to him. This estimate is framed upon the regulated ration, eon elating of seven pounds of fresh meat, and eight pounds of wheat per week ; but as this quantity Is generally in by the settlers to ten pounds of meat and one perk of wheat per week, the cost of rnainteuance is raised to 171. 17s 8.1 per awe, making, with his wages and tiothieD an annual Watt of 3111.65.
