LAUNCESTON, VAN DIEMEN'S LAND.

We learn from Mr. P. Oakden, who has just returned fr°s!
Launceston in the Alexander Johnston, that the trade betwee:
that place and London has increased so much of late that the
exports from thence exceed those from Hobart Town. Fr°°
the Custom-house returns for the season of 1835, it aPPeaar,
~
that, besides other articles, the followinz were' exported '-
London:—

Wool, 4,391 bales, estimated there at .£88,2C,9
Whale oil, 65H., tuns, „
11,853
Whalebone, 56 tons, „
P/ 4,773
Bark, 2,503 „ ,• 10,772

-•
In the present season, up to the 12th of March, five veseeis
had sailed for London, (the Westmoreland, Mary, John Der
niston, Ann, and Isabella,) and four others (the Frotect°e'
Crusader, Elizabeth Taylorson, and Francis Charlotte) were
loading for the same port ; another (the Chili) was expected t;
be laid in, and the Norval was taking in bark at Weston ref
prior to completing her loading at Launceston.
In the statement of exports for last season given above, the
cargo of the Westmoreland is included, that vessel having sailed
just before the cloie of the year.
It seems rather remarkable that, with all the facilities for this
trade in Liverpool, so large a proportion of it should be carried
on to London, the Alexander Johnston, which arrived her',,
last week, being the first vessel which has ever come frell:
thence direct to this port; and up to this period no vessel Pa'
sailed from this port direct to Launceston.
