The depression in Australasia during
the last year operated to retard the
growth of the population of the col
ouies in a remarkable degree. There
was far less immigration in 1893 than
in any former year in the history OF
the colonies, and a smaller total in
crease than in any year since 1873.
The total gain of the combined col
onies of Australia, New Zealand and
Tasmania was S3,044. OF this number
T4,S21 was due to the natural increase,
the excess of births over deaths, ant
only s,223 to immigration. No colony
suffered an actual decline in popula
ton, but because of the great number
of people who emigrated a large pro
portion of the acknowledgements was los
in both Victoria and Tasmania. In Vic
toria there were 10000 more birth,
than deaths, but the actual gain il
population was but 6,649, because 13,41l
persons emigrated from the colony
The total population of Australasia
at the end of 1898 was 4,06s,3 17.
