TASMANIA.
The DereIopment Of the Country.

The Island of Tasmania, or Van Diemen's
Land, as it was formerly called, lies to the ex-
treme south of Australia, between 400 Is and
43o 45' south latitude, and between 144' 45
and 1882 80 east longitude. 1t is separated
from Australia by Bass Strait, 120 miles wide; ;
but 1t Is IN telegraphiC communication with
the Australian continent, and therefore with
Europe, the Tasmanian and Victoria submarine
telegraph being worked by the Eastern Exten-
sion Telegraph Co. upon a guarantee from the
Iasmanian Government. The greatest length
OF the island is 230 miles, and its greatest width
100 miles It's surface is estimated at 26,2l5
square miles, or almost the size Of South Caro-
lima. The total area, exclusive of islands and
lakes, IS lj,57l,J0 acres, or inclusive of these
l6,T7S,O00 acres. The population at the last
census in 1881 was 115, ,705, and it is estimated
to be now close on 100000 persons. Tasmania
is mountainous country, having hills rang
ing from 1000 feet to 5000 feet in hight. 1t
has several extensive lakes on the high central
table land, and these form the sources of the
chief rivers of which there are several. The
climate Of Tasmania is very salubriOus, and
the island is recommended as q sanatarium
for invalids, the hot north winds Of Australia
being tempered by the 40 miles Of sea at Bass
Strait. The chief products are tin and gold,
wool, wheat, oats, barley, potatoes, timber,
hops, fruit, jam, aud whale OIL The Govern
ment Of Tasmania, with view TO encourage
special manufacturing industries, has offered
bonuses from time 10 time, of which the follow
ing are yet unclaimed:
Sugar from beet or other products grown in
the Colony, bonus $4,000, 200 tons to be manu-
factered in one year.
Salon 300 tons being manufactured in one
year, bonus Of $3.50 per ton for the first 100
tons, and 3I.25 per ton for the second and third
100.
Corn Sacks or Woolpacbs.- s., 1000. The
quantity of sacking suitable for working up
into those articles turned out in one year to be
10000 yards.
Up to about four years ago Tasmania was
considered a sleepy colony, aud was dependent
upon Australia aud England for the supply OF
most articles of general consumption. Now the
country has awakened, trade is developing and
railways are extending iu various directions.
The National tribune. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1877-1917, 1888-04-26

this sum by an appropriation of 100000, max
ing the total fund 1921 600, and providing for
the appointment Of Board of Commissioners.
The design for the monument was adopted
by the Commissioners Jan. 27, 1883, and was
executed by Bruno Schmitz, Of Berlin, who
is experimenting its erection. It's dimen-
siOns are: Diameter of circle, including ap-
proaches and fountains, 1872 feet; diameter Of
foundation and terrace 110 feet; diameter of
pedestal, 43 feet, whence it ascends at an angle,
bringing it to a diameter OF 81 feet diameter
of base of shaft, % feet, whence il decreases as
you ascend to I6 and I3 feet. The stylobate
above the platform is nine feet in diameter.
Above it rises a bronze statue of Victory, 80
feet high, bearing an electric light 265 feet
above the earth. At the hight Of 2l9 feet is
platform, to be reached by spiral stairway or
elevator, from which the city can be seen. Just
below is q bronze astragal, bearing the dates
1861, 1862, 1863 1864, on the several sides of
the monument, and these will be lighted at
night by electricity. Midway of the structure
is second bronze astragal emblematic of the
navy. Further down on the south side is
bronze badge of the Grand Army of the Repub-
lie, while on the north side is the badge of the
WOman's Relief Corps, the two being united by
a wreath composed of the arms of the service.
also in bronze. On the east and west sides are
battle pieces Of sculpture in stone, while upon
the pylons, or subordinate pedestals, are groups
a.
resenting the infantry, artillery, cavalry and
navy. On the east and west sides Of the foun-
dation are cascade fountains. On the north
and south sides are wide steps Of stone, 20 feet
in length, leading to the terrace surrounding
the monument, and from which the interior is
reached by bronze doors above which arc large
tablets, to bear the inscriptions of counties,
regiments and batteries which make appropria-
tions for that purpose.
The design has been copyrighted, and pic
lures of it are On sale throughout the country,
the entire proceeds to go to the Monument

The annual meeting of the Cincinnati, (O.)
Association of Union Ex-Pr5OnerS of War was
held in that city on the oath of March, and Of
fcers elected as follows: President, John v
Hunt; V.-P,, Harry Watson; Sec, John A.
Zeigler; Treas, S. H. Strunk. A committee
was appointed to draft and circulate memo
rial to be forwarded to the Members of Con-
gress from that State, fsvoring legislation in
behalf of ex-prisoners
Comrade Samuel Gfrverer, of Louisville KY
writes for the necessary blanks to enable ex-
prisoners to form a local association for that
city. AS there is no Ex-Prisoners' Association
in that part of the State, it is believed that a
hourishng organization can be established
there If comrades make an earnest effort in
that direction.
The Toledo (O.) Association is earnestly at
work to promote the interests of ex-prisoners
in every way practical, and manifests much en-
thusiasm IN their cause At a recent enter
tainment given by the Association over $l40
was cleared from which banner has been pur-
chased, costing more than $I00, and under
which they propose to march in body, uni
formed, and wearing badges. at the GAR. En-
campment. Others should follow the good ex-
ample of this energetic Association and leave
nothing undone to make their organizations
equally prosperous.
The Montgomery County On. " Association
recently held its regular meeting. Comrades
there are much in earnest, and take lively
interest in pension legislation.
At meeting of the Allegheny County Union
Ex-Prisoners Association held at Pittsburg on
the I'd of April, 1885, a resolution was passed
favOring q change of the time and place of
holding the next annual meeting of the Ma
tional Association from indianapolis to Colum-
bus, at the time Of the National Encampment,
GAR, and if this was not practical, that an
adjourned meeting of the National Association
be held at Columbus during the Encampment,
and that the Union Ex-P Prisoners of War form q
division in the parade.
AS heretofore announced in THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE, Headquarters of the National Asso-
citation will be opened at Columbus during the
week OF the National Encampment, where ex-
prisoners can meet and have continuous Re-
unioa during the entire time. AS soon as ar
rangements can be perfected circular will be
issued from these Headquarters giving full par
cuars
