more, it will be at a premium immediately. In fact,
it is Often remarked by the traders here that the best
rule is to order when the na rket is already well
stocked, because, if you wait till the demand is felt,
so many will order at once that you will lose your
chance of selling at a profit. In‘coming out, how-
ever, the best way—especially if the emigrant has
but little capital—is to bring himself only, and no
articles of merchandise. He may be sure that the
market of men will not be overstocked, if he bring
with him a stout heart, an energetic will, hands
used to work, and a good constitution. The " ne'er-
do-weel" at home will do nothing here, and if the
emigrant be too fond of the bottle, the immigrant
will soon find ruin and the grave to be his doom in
this distant land. There is no doubt about it that
this is at the present time the land of all lands for
the temperate, energetic, and industrious ; it is the
worst of all lands for those who are of the oppo-
site description. _ _

And now that I have told you so much about the
place and its people, you may not be disinclined to
learn a little about myself. Unless I am greatly
mistaken, there must be many who would like to
know how Australia received the Wizard, and
what the Wizard is doing in Australia. The re-
ception was all that the Wizard could wish, and
more than he anticipated ; while the success of the
Wizard at present distances all his previous good
fortune.

I opened at the Theatre Royal on the 21st of
June. The theatre is, in point of size, most mag-
nificent, and will shortly be so in point of decora-
tion. As regards the latter, it will soon outrival
the ornate and elegant Queen's Theatre in
Edinburgh, while, as regards its capacity,
it has no rival in Scotland. On my opening
night, there were more than 4,000 present ; and
the cheering I received when I came on was more
enthusiastic than I remember it to have been on
any previous occasion, no matter where I appeared.
The performance, to judge by the applause of the
house, and the critiques of the jonrnals on the fol-
lowing day—some of white I send you—gave the
highest satisfaction. I believe that half my audience
nightly is composed of Scotsmen, hence the popu-
larity of any one from the north of the Tweed who
tries his fortunes here. There is my friend John
Mungall, for instance (well known to all Scottish
playgoers), walking about like a gentleman, with
his "pile," as it is called,, in his bank, and his
cheque-book in his pocket. Actors don't do that in
Scotland every day. Yet, fortunate though they
may be in this new country, all alike talk of " going;
home." Home in this land has an entirely diffe-
rent signification to that which it has in Britain.
It does not mean the house in which you live, nor
does it mean the residence in which your wife and
family may be dwelling in this country ; but it
means the far land, across the trackless pathway
of the sea, where infancy was nursed, where youth
spent its golden days, where love was first reci-
procated with love, and where the speaker hopes to
be again on some distant day. It will take ano-
ther generation or two before home means any-
thing else in Victoria.
In the first fortnight of my performance here,
the aggregate of my.audiences amounted to 30,000.
Last Saturday morning, when I had the patronage
of Sir Henry Barkly, the Governor, every seat in
the dress- circle was- occupied, and the house
crammed to repletion. So that I have nothing to
complain of, but can fully admit the claim of the
Victorians to recognise their colony as " a great
country that you can't fence in."
I go to Geelong in a week or two, and thence to
Tasmania and to Sydney. You shall hear from me
again from one or other of those places, and I hope
that what I may have to tell will not prove unin-
teresting. Till then, wishing you and all friends
wherever your paper may travel the best wishes I
can wish them, and hoping one day to be in Eng-
land again, believe me, yours faithfully,
J. H. ANDERSON, Wizard of the North.
