The last convict ship from England discharged her cargo at Hobart in 1851, since which year the system has gradually disappeared. The city is supplied with all the necessary charitable and educational institutions, including a public library and art gallery. The street scenes have the usual local color, embracing the typical miner, with his rude kit upon his shoulder, consisting of a huge canvas bag, a shovel, and pick. The professional chimney-sweep, with blackened face and hands begrimed, — h...e whom we lost sight of in Boston years ago, — is here seen pursuing his antiquated vocation. Market-men have the same peculiar mode of delivering purchases to their customers that we have no- ticed elsewhere in this country, and are seen galloping about upon wiry little horses, bearing upon their arms large well-filled baskets. Women, with small handcarts full of slaughtered rabbits, cry them for sale at twelve JOURNEYINGS IN MANY LANDS. 79 cents a pair, besides which they receive a bounty for killing these pests.
