A letter' from Hobart Town, dared May 10, says:—
" I am much better pleased with Hobart Town than I
eipected to be ;it contai, s many excellent boa-es, almost
all the necessaries, and many of the luxuries of life, and
the climate appears a fiery line one.-It isAot more than
20 years since the first settlers, some poor people from
Norfolk Island, arrived here. Among the proofs of its
parentage we have a free press. The Haar* Tana
Gosetie is the Government Paper, and the Colonial Tinier
the Oeposition Piker. It is tar from being a luxurious
country, but capable, I believe, of great things, if pro-
perly cultivated. In a few years it will become another
England. The first ,view of the coast is barren, the
mountains thinly covered with reluctant herbage, and
4$ ihinly clothed with stunted trees, chiefly pine. Some
of the mountains are bare rock to the very summit. 1
have as yet seen no large trees, nor can I hear of any.
Our wheat, vegetables, and butcher's meat are of the
first deseViption ; many of our fruits are very fine. I
hkve not been able to ascertain the population of this
town, but should guess it at 4 000 to 5,00) persons.—
The people are, as usual, divided into two parties, the
Radicals make the most noise. The bush rangers are
now all taken: they have been the scourge 44 the coaa-
try for two or three years."
