PBEEATOBY NOTE The scope and purpose of the Exhibition, whose contents are described in the following pages, are clearly indicated by its official designation. As distinguished from the display of international exhibits which took place under the same roof in 1880-81, it is not promoted with the view of bringing a monopoly or even a preponderance of advantage to any single colony. While all the leading nations of the world are cordially invited to submit their productions for public competition and inspection, the Exhibition, which covers no less than 35J acres, derives pre-eminently an Australian character from its title, which directly points to the peculiar conditions under which it has been called into existence. It is commemorative of the first permanent British settlement ever established on this continent. That the immi¬ grants who came from Great Britain under Captain Arthur Phillip, a century ago, should have disembarked at one part of Australia rather than at another must be regarded as simply accidental; and so the selection of Melbourne for the honour of celebrating, in a specific form, the centenary of their arrival is equally due to a contingency over which the parent colony of New South Wales—in which the Exhibition would naturally have been held under ordinary circumstances—had no control. We refer to the unfortunate destruction by fire, some years ago, of the spacious Exhibition Building that was erected in Sydney. Deprived, from that cause, of the necessary convenience for carrying out the object contem¬ plated in the neighbouring colony, the New South Wales Government was respectfully approached by the Victorian Premier in November, 1886, with the proposal that the corresponding structure in Melbourne should be utilised for a purpose in which Australia was interested. As might be expected, Sir Patrick Jennings, then head of the administration in the sister colony, accepted the offer of Mr. Gillies in the friendly spirit by which it was prompted. Victoria has cheerfully assumed the financial responsibility connected with the undertaking, and her prominent citizens have esteemed it a privilege to devote time, thought, and energy without stint to its successful consummation; bearing in mind, however, that the present show of the world’s arts, wares, and inventions forms an integral part of the Centennial festivities which opened in Sydney in January last. At the same time, the Exhibition serves as a useful landmark in the march of Australian progress. The exhibits contributed by other sections of the Empire, and by foreign countries, enable us to measure our industrial shortcomings, or, as the case may be, the extent of improve¬ ment which has been attained, both in the quality and quantity of the commodities produced in the country. An opportunity is afforded of comparing our mineral, agricultural, pastoral, manufacturing, and artistic development with that of older and more cultured communities in Europe, Asia, and America. Thus mistakes which may have inadvertently been committed in our educational, aesthetic, economic, and industrial methods may be corrected, while we are incited to aim at still higher standards of excellence. If the result of such a comparison Vol. I. l * IV MELBOURNE CENTENNIAL INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. of products should be that employers and employed in the Australian colonies, who are engaged in pursuits requiring technical skill and experience, are inspired with what Mr. Goschen, in a recent address before the Aberdeen University, describes as a more intense “ intellectual interest” in their respective handicrafts, the care and toil expended on the Exhibition by its promoters will in no small degree be rewarded. In sober truth, during the past century, and especially in the last thirty-seven years, the rate at which the resources of Australia have been developed is marvellous. When the Exhibition of 1851 was held in London, the whole continent was represented only by a few specimens of ores and cereals, a few blocks of timber, and a case or two of wool. When that great pioneer of mammoth international fairs was opened, the only habitation on the site of the present town of Ballarat was a shepherd’s hut, built of slabs of wood and roofed with bark; and, taking that dwelling as a centre with a radius of forty miles round it, the number of inhabitants did not exceed five hundred. At the beginning of the same year Victoria was not as yet erected into an independent colony, or even known by its present name. The white population of the entire country, from the Gulf of Carpentaria to Wilson’s Promontory, and from Perth to Brisbane, did not much exceed 240,000, and the trade only amounted to about £6,000,000 per annum. Now, the six colonies of the group have an estimated population of 3,000,000, with annual exports and imports—exclusive of New Zealand—amounting to £110,000,000, one-half of the business represented by that large sum being done with Great Britain. Their shipping reaches close upon 12,000,000 tons; their aggregate public revenues are over £20,000,000; and the high status of their credit in the London market is shown by the fact that British creditors have trusted their Governments with loans amounting to £123,000,000. Numerous borough loans and private English mortgage and shareholding investments are also to be considered. At the close of 1886 the collective railways of Australia, open and in course of construction, covered 8880 miles. The length of electric telegraph wires in operation throughout the six colonies is about 60,000 miles; and their postal revenues amount to £900,000. The number of acres of Crown land alienated, or in process of alienation, is set down at 92,000,000, against 1,808,724,000 acres neither alienated nor in process of alienation. The approximate number of acres under tillage is 7,000,000 acres. The cereal crops are at present estimated at 900,000 bushels, in addition to 960,000 tons of hay and 340,000 tons of potatoes. The grand total of their live stock includes l,200,000 i horses, 7,000,000 cattle, 70,000,000 sheep, and 880,000 pigs. The wool exported is equal in value to £17,000,000; and their total gold produce from 1851 to the close of last year, inclusive of New Zealand, is about £323,400,000, yet this latter splendid result gives promise of being rivalled by the growing production of silver, tin, copper, and coal, which, with other minerals and metals, have already yielded a further aggregate of £74,000,000. The assets of the leading banks having transactions in Australia amounted in June, 1887 to £117,500,000, and their liabilities to £86,000,000. It is impossible to form a trustworthy estimate of the number of hands employed in the manufacturing industries of the colonies, or PREFATORY NOTE. Y ■fhe amount of capital invested in them. But it is undeniable that a marked impulse has been given to these industries, as well as to commerce generally, by every International Exhibition which has yet been held in these colonies, and there is every reason to believe that the Exhibition of 1888 will be no exception to the rule. Nor can it be overlooked that an infinitesimal fraction of the continent is all that has hitherto been occupied by settlers, much of the richest soil being still left under the undisputed sway of the eucalyptus or the kangaroo in regions untrodden by the foot of man. It is believed by those competent to offer an opinion on the subject that the prospects held out to the patient and well-directed exertions of suitable immigrants are more solid and inviting to-day than in the most brilliant portion of the gold era, which may be compared to the preliminary symphony introducing the performance of an oratorio, as inaugurating the progressive and enduring prosperity of this continent. The bright outlook suggested by the magnificent collection of articles, illustrative of •the varied products of civilised nations, detailed in this Catalogue, is signally enhanced by the spectacle of Australian unity of aim presented by the exhibiting colonies. Their harmonious co-operation to render the occasion a success, and the kindly association of their representa¬ tives in carrying out the objects of the Exhibition, must be taken as a happy augury. Instead of the wine and wool exhibits of the several Australasian colonies, and the art treasures displayed by these colonies and by distant countries, being specially noted in the introductions preceding the descriptions of the contents of their respective courts, these three several categories of exhibits are dealt with in introductions relating exclusively to themselves. A similar remark applies to the educational exhibits, which have an introduction bearing solely on the subjects to which they refer. It may be stated that the Editor was limited by instructions to 75 pages in all of introductory matter, and as this is distributed over a great variety of subjects, it will readily be understood that comparative brevity and condensation were rendered inevitable. The place of honour in this volume is appropriately assigned to the exhibits of New South Wales, as the elder sister and prima inter pares in the group of Australian colonies. At the same time, it is to be regretted that after much delay and many attempts to obtain from the New South Wales Commission an accurate descriptive list of her general exhibits, outside the Art section, the Printer was under the necessity of going to press without receiving so correct a list of them as could be desired. As the contract arranged between the Executive Commissioners and the Printer only admits of three lines free to each exhibitor, in each class, the list of pictures, especially in the British and Victorian Galleries, is unavoidably imperfect; but to remedy this shortcoming, for which the Editor is in no way responsible, a separate Art Catalogue has been issued in which British, Victorian, and other Art exhibits are fully described. It only remains to be stated that particulars of exhibits which failed to arrive in time to appear in their proper places, will be found under the head of “ Addenda ” at the end of the :Second Volume.

JAENECKE & SCHNEEMANN’S FINE A3 BLACK INK. INTRODUCTION TO THE EDUCATIONAL EXHIBITS. It may assist those practically interested in the varied display of Educational Exhibits, to appreciate the leading features in the State-administered systems of Australasia, to have placed before them a summarised comparative statement of the points in which they mainly differ. It may be broadly stated that the educational systems carried on under the control of the respective Governments of the Australasian colonies have two characteristics in common. In every case the State system of education is compulsory and undenominational. In some instances, however, what is called non-sectarian religious instruction is recognised as part of school routine, although it is not made obligatory where parents object to the reception of it by their children. In Victoria, New Zealand, and Tasmania, the teaching provided by the State is wholly secular; but in New South Wales, South Australia, Queensland, and Western Australia, Scripture lessons are taught to scholars whose parents or guardians do not take exception to them, while in the colony last mentioned some assistance is granted from the public funds to private denominational schools. Public instruction is free in Victoria, Queens¬ land, and New Zealand, but fees are charged in the other colonies, or are entirely remitted where the parents are unable to pay them. As regards the school age, it varies in the different colonies; in Victoria it is from 6 to 15 years, in New South Wales from 6 to 14, in Queensland from 6 to 12, in South Australia from 7 to 18, in Tasmania from 7 to 14, and in New Zealand from 7 to 18 years. The following table shows the number of State schools, teachers, and scholars in each Australasian colony during the year 1886 ; also the proportion of scholars in average attendance to population :— Colony. Number of Schools. Number of Teachers. Scholars in Average Attendance. Number. Number per 100 of the Population. New South "Wales 2,170 3,756 105,538 10-77 Victoria 1,870 4,175 123,550 12-52 Queensland 479 1,382 32,250 9-70 South Australia 504 1,081 28,000 8-94 Western Australia 89 150 3,344 8-99 Total .. 5,112 10,544 292,682 11-05 Tasmania 209 390 7,866 5-81 New Zealand .. 1,054 2,721 80,737 13-87 Grand Total 6,375 13,655 381,285 11-32 According to the contents of the above table, the average attendance at State schools is higher in Victoria than in any other of the Australasian colonies except New Zealand, in which colony, however, it may be observed that the proportion is increased by Maori children being included among the scholars, though not included in the population as forming the basis of the calculated average. On the other hand, it will be found that if the percentage of average attendance to enrolment be considered, Western Australia stands at the top of the list with 74-17 per cent., followed by South Australia with 63-05 per cent., New South Wales with 56-70 per cent., New Zealand with 55 - 85, Queensland with 54-75, Victoria with 53 - 58, and Tasmania with only 49-12 per cent. The position of Tasmania at the bottom of the scale is significant, because she not only stands lowest in the percentage of average attendance to enrolment, but also in the proportion of State school scholars to population. The latter fact, however, is accounted for on the ground that in Tasmania the proportion of children to the population is smaller than in the other colonies. If we take the comparative existence of Vol : 2 2 MELBOURNE CENTENNIAL INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. illiteracy as a test of the progress which elementary education has made in the different colonies, New Zealand, Victoria, and South Australia are bracketed as containing only 3 per cent, of adults of fifteen years of age and upwards living who could not read. Next comes Queensland with 5 per cent., New South Wales with 7 per cent., West Australia with 9 per cent., and Tasmania with 11 per cent., at and above the age specified, who could not read. But in compiling the returns on which these results are arrived at, most of the colonies have excluded the aborigines, and several of them have not separated the Chinese, or so distin¬ guished their educational attainments as to admit of their being accurately deducted from the remainder of the population. It would obviously be unfair to set down the Chinese as illiterate because unable to read English, which only a small minority of them are able to do. In comparing the cost of public instruction in the several Australasian colonies for the year ending 31st December, 1886, the most noteworthy point is the large amount paid by New South Wales as compared with other colonies. If we take Victoria, for example, it appears that although the average number of scholars under instruction in New South Wales was fewer by 18,012, or nearly 15 per cent., than the number in Victoria, the cost of instructing them was more by £112,827, or 21 per cent. The following table, from Mr. Hayter’s “ Victorian Year Book, 1886-7,” shows the average cost of instruction per scholar, distinguish¬ ing the proportions defrayed by the State, and by parents or otherwise, in each colony. Colony. Cost of Instruction per Scholar in Average Attendance. Paid by the State. Paid by Parents, &c. Total £ s. d. £ s. d. £ s. d. 1. New South Wales 5 12 1 0 11 11 6 4 0 2.

Western Australia 2 13 4 0 8 6 3 1 10 As regards the net cost to the State of instruction per head of population, New South Wales still heads the list, representing 13s. 4d. per head, Victoria 12s., New Zealand 11s. lid., Queensland 7s. 10d., South Australia 7s. 4d., Western Australia 5s. 7d., and Tasmania 5s. 3d. The cost per scholar in average attendance in Australia is £4 19s. 2d., and the cost per head of population is 11s. In Australia, with Tasmania and New Zealand added, the cost per scholar is £4 16s. 2d., and the cost per head of population is 10s. lid. In Victoria the amount shown as paid by parents is for instruction in subjects not included in the regular course compulsorily enforced. The Education Act of New South Wales specifies the State schools to be (1) Public, in which the main object shall be to afford the best primary education to all children without sectarian or class distinction; (2) Superior Public, in towns and populous districts in which additional lessons in the higher branches of education may be given ; (3) Evening, for the instruction of those whose primary education has been neglected; (4) High, for boys and girls, the former to complete their public school curriculum, or to prepare for the University. It is enacted that the weekly fees in the public schools shall not exceed threepence for each child up to four of one family, and for four or any larger number of the same family the total amount is not to exceed one shilling. New standards of proficiency came into force at the beginning of 1885, according to which the number of subjects taught to the lower classes was reduced. The new arrangement minimises the temptation of teachers to prepare pupils specially for the examinations in the class of subjects which can be got up mechanically, with a view to make up for deficiencies in the higher or more intellectual branches, the result being that much less encouragement than formerly is given to “ cram.” Superior public schools in New South Wales meet a felt want, especially where high schools or superior private scholastic institutions do not exist. The instruction given in them includes, in addition to primary subjects, mathematics, Latin, and French. Formerly an extra fee was charged for these special subjects ; but as the imposition of this charge prevented many children from receiving the full benefits of the State system of education, it was abolished. Superior schools can only be established where twenty children capable of passing the fifth- class standard can be found. High schools for boys and girls are in operation, but do not receive an encouraging amount of support, having regard to the moderate fees charged and the advanced character of the education offered. The crown of the educational edifice of New South Wales is, of course, the University of Sydney, to which the entire State school system INTRODUCTION TO THE EDUCATIONAL EXHIBITS. leads up. Provision is made for the instruction of children in sparsely inhabited districts in the interior by what is known as a “ house-to-house ” system, the teachers travelling from place to place, and meeting groups of children in turn. The waifs and strays neglected or deserted in the large populations are for the most part boarded out, due regard being had to the supply of their educational wants by their foster-parents. A technical college has been •established in Sydney in connection with the Sydney Mechanics’ School of Arts, the management of which has been transferred to the Education Board. The Parliamentary vote for technical education in 1885 amounted to over £17,000. In Victoria one of the most formidable difficulties in the working of the Act is the glaring disparity which exists between the average attendance at the State schools and the number on the rolls, although it is claimed that the average attendance now makes a satisfactory advance. It is also noticeable that children are being continually removed from school at an earlier age than they formerly were, and this circumstance has led to a proposal to reduce the school age, which is exceptionally high compared with other colonies. The work of settling the exact position to be occupied by each school and every member of its staff is entrusted to “ classifiers,” who consist of (1) the Inspector-General, (2) the head teacher of a State school having an attendance of more than 400 pupils, and (3) another person appointed by the Governor in Council. Night-schools are established by the Minister as occasion may require. The system of payment to teachers “by results” prevails, although it is protested against by many of the best of their order, and by many enlightened educationists in Europe and America, as contrary to the true scientific method of developing the mental powers of young people. Up to the present the State has provided no intermediate system of education between the State school and the University, beyond awarding a given number of scholarships annually under certain restricted conditions to scholars from elementary schools. The high schools or colleges in which the scholarships are available are denominational institutions, notwithstanding that it is an essential part of the Victorian State school system that the instruction given in the State schools shall be exclusively secular Thirty-six schools of design have been established at various places in Victoria in connection with a Royal Com¬ mission for promoting technological and industrial instruction. Lands endowed by the Crown have been vested in trustees for promoting colleges to instruct students in scientific and prac¬ tical agriculture. The University is partly supported by a Government grant of £11,000, and partly by the fees of the students attending lectures and entering for matriculation and degrees. In South Australia, under recent Acts, every State school must have an attendance of at least twenty scholars. The fees are fixed at 4d. per week for children under five years of age, and 6d. for those above that age; but in cases of poverty the amounts may be remitted and paid to the teacher by the Government. After seven years of age, the attendance is compulsory for not less than thirty-five days in each quarter. Itinerant teachers may be employed in thinly-populated districts. Scholarships, exhibitions, and bursaries are open to pupils at public schools, rendering accessible to the children of the poor as well as of the rich the highest educational advantages at the University of Adelaide, or at any approved European University. Six exhibitions also entitle the holders to free education at any of the colleges which they may select. The training-school system includes practical work, not merely in the small model school of the institution, but visits also to the six large schools of Adelaide. South Australia has long had her Government Experimental Farm for the reception of students who devote themselves to the study of sciences related to agriculture. The University of Adelaide is subsidised by Parliament, and supported by the munificent bequests of two eminent citizens. Educational affairs in Western Australia are administered by a central board, consisting of five members, all of whom must be laymen, one of whom is appointed by the Governor, and acts as chairman, while of the other four no two must belong to the same religious denomination. The District Board consists of five members chosen by the ratepayers, who have been resident in the colony for at least six months. The provisions for religious education are almost identical with those for Great Britain as expressed in British Acts and • codes. Voluntary schools receive public aid if they are willing to give the necessary information as to their statistics and course of instruction. They are described as “assisted schools,” but no grant is made for their erection. No Government school is supported and no school provided by voluntary efforts is aided by public funds when two such schools are within four miles of each other, unless the combined number of scholars attending the schools shall amount at least to forty. Not long after Queensland obtained separation from New South Wales a board of six gentlemen was appointed to supervise and carry out the establishment of a scheme of national education for that colony. Wherever twenty children of school age— i.e., above five years— could be collected, a school was established, and a teacher provided and paid by the board. At first small fees were demanded of each scholar, according to the class he attended. This tax was abolished in 1864, the teachers subsequently receiving a compensating addition to their salaries. The schools originally established were divided into two classes—vested and non- \Oh I. 2 * 4 MELBOURNE CENTENNIAL INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. vested. The vested schools were unsectarian but not secular, selections of the New Testament being enforced by the teacher, and the books used were those published by the National Commissioners of Ireland. The control of these vested schools was under a Board of Education appointed by the Government, the chairman being a Minister of the Crown for the time being; and this board provided, from money voted by Parliament, for the erection of buildings and the payment of the teachers, whose salaries were supplemented by school fees ranging from 6d. to Is. 6d. per week. Some time afterwards the fees were abolished, and the stipends of the teachers augmented by increased payments from the public revenue. The non-vested schools were placed under the direct control of the Anglican and Roman Catholic Churches, and for these buildings were supplied by the religious bodies to which the schools belonged; but State-aid was given in the form of salaries to the teachers and grants of books, all other expenses being met by the religious denominations. In these schools any religious doctrine could be taught either by the teachers or by the ministers of the church to which the school belonged. But, in common with the vested, the non-vested schools were under Government inspection. In the former, however, this inspection extended to both secular and religious instruction, while in the latter it applied to secular instruction only. In 1875 a fresh measure was passed creating a Department of Public Instruction, controlled by one of the Ministers of the Crown. Under the new Act State-aid to non-vested schools was withdrawn from December, 1880. Except those sustained by the Roman Catholics, such schools have ceased to exist. It is now ordained by law that in primary schools the whole cost of instruc¬ tion is defrayed by the State, and no fees are charged to children in attendance. For instruction in subjects not included in the prescribed State-school list, fees are paid by the pupils, the extra subjects being taught before or after regular school hours. Every year 120 scholarships are open for competition, 90 for boys, and 30 for girls, which entitle the winners of them to free education at any grammar school in the colony for a period of three years. Every year, also, a competitive examination is held for three exhibitions to Universities, for which papers are prepared, and the answers of pupils examined by the professors of the University of Sydney. These latter are open to all students under nineteen years of age, and are available for three years in Sydney, Melbourne, Glasgow, Edinburgh, London, Oxford, Cambridge, and other Universities. The primary schools are of two kinds—State-schools, which are maintained wholly at the Government expense, and provisional schools, which are maintained partly at public expense. Provisional schools are divided into three classes:— (1) Regular provisional schools, where the teacher instructs in one school only, which must have an average of not less than twelve children of school age; (2) part-time provisional schools, where one teacher devotes himself to two or more schools, giving a portion of his time to each, the average attendance at any one of them not being less than six children of school age; (3) special provisional schools for the instruction of neglected children. New State schools are only established (1) where central and suitable sites are secured, not too near any other school already established by the Department; (2) where a permanent daily attendance of not less than thirty children of school age can be obtained;' and (3) where one- fifth of the estimated cost of the school buildings and furniture has accompanied the applica¬ tions for the establishment of the institution. Taking the average cost per head for education of children enrolled, and in average daily attendance in State and provisional schools per annum, it is found to be £5 7s. 8^d. The State Orphanages for the reception and care of neglected children is an interesting feature in the State-school system of Queensland. After the children reach the age of twelve they may be hired out for service, and so excessive is the demand for them that there are six applicants for every child when ready to be dismissed, owing to the good name they generally bear among employers. Two-thirds of the wages of the State Orphanage children are paid quarterly in advance to their credit in the savings banks, the remaining third being allowed for pocket money, the Under-Secretary for Public Instruction being trustee for the fund. The boarding-out system also grows in favour in Queensland. In Tasmania the system of instruction is compulsory from seven to thirteen years of age, and is non-sectarian ; but clergymen and other religious teachers are allowed to impart religious teaching to children of their own persuasion out of school hours. The Council of Education is authorised to hold examinations and to confer annually two Tasmanian scholar¬ ships and the degree of Associate of Arts. Eight scholarships, each of the value of £200 per annum, and tenable for four years at a British University, are founded, of which two are annually competed for by male associates of arts above sixteen and under twenty years of age, and who have resided in the colony for at least the preceding five years. The system of education in New Zealand is secular, entirely free and partly compulsory, and is under a Minister of Education. There are thirteen Education Boards, which have the general management of education in their districts; and for each school district there is a school committee elected annually by householders and parents. The cumulative voting principle is applicable to the election of these committees, and by them the boards are elected. Each board consists of nine members, and three retire annually. The boards have the appointment of the head-masters and assistant-teachers, and the boards usually consult the INTRODUCTION TO THE EDUCATIONAL EXHIBITS. 5 committees before appointments are made. The power of dismissing teachers virtually rests with the boards, and the advantage to the teacher is that his position is more secure than it was before the new Education Act came into force. The Department gives aid to normal schools, which provide for the training of teachers. Every district has a pupil-teacher system, and it has been rightly felt that there should be some training college to which pupil-teachers might go to perfect their studies in teaching. Students in the normal schools in towns having University Colleges have the opportunity of attending University College lectures, including those on science. It is satisfactory to note that the proportion of certificated teachers to the whole number employed in the schools is yearly increasing. The compulsory clauses of the Act, as regards the attendance of the children, can only be enforced in any school by a vote of the majority of the committee of that school. The Bible is not read in the schools, so that no children may be kept away on account of religious or non-religious scruples. So careful is the Act that none shall be barred from receiving elementary education on these grounds, that if a parent objects to his child attending the history lessons, the latter is allowed to absent himself. To encourage merit among the pupils, there were scholarships involving an outlay of £5288 for 104 boys and 61 girls in 188G. The New Zealand University is simply an examining body, like the University of London, and has no fixed abode, the sessions of its Senate being held sometimes in one town and sometimes in another. Degrees in arts, science, law, medicine, and music, are granted to successful competitors; but as the University, like the primary and secondary schools, deals only with secular objects, the degree of Doctor in Divinity is not obtainable. Over 1000 orphans and neglected children are maintained wholly or partly by Government aid in orphanages and industrial schools. A system of boarding- out and apprenticing has recently been introduced with the happiest results. One of the most successful of the educational institutions in New Zealand is the Lincoln Agricultural College, in Canterbury. Students at that institution take part in the work of ploughing, milking, harvesting, and thus gain a practical acquaintance with the whole round of farming operations while receiving instruction in literature and science. Twenty-six secondary schools are incorporated or endorsed by the New Zealand Government. INTRODUCTION TO THE WOOL EXHIBITS. Cunningham, the explorer, asked in 1827, with regard to Australia as being exceptionally adapted for the culture of wool: “ Whatever are we to do with the millions of pastoral acres scattered over our continent but to graze them in some way or other? The climate is proved to increase unassisted the fineness of our wool-staple, a circumstance ascribed by some to native grasses, by others solely to the climate, and by others again to the clay soils, which are said by English sheep-farmers uniformly to improve the quality of the fleece.” The wool exhibits, various though they be, emphasise the conclusion at which Europe and America have arrived, that in fineness of staple Australian fleece continues to hold an unrivalled position throughout the world. New Zealand, however, is distinguished for long rather than fine wool, the result of climatic conditions. It is not uninteresting to observe how in some Australian colonies the pastoral industry has changed under the influence of her circumstances. South Australia began varying sheep course on small freehold farms, and expanded into the squatter system on leasehold held from the State. Victoria, on the other hand, once the genuine squatter-land, with scarcely any freehold farms for the first twenty years or more, has gradually been altering its character. Instead of large areas roamed over by flocks of considerable magnitude, it is fast becoming a colony of small grazing farmers. It is true that such a class of graziers could not, as a rich squatter did lately, give 1100 guineas for a ram, to the advantage of future fleece, nor could they indulge in expensive machinery for the get-up of w t oo1; but they would be able, on limited areas to improve the native grasses, to employ irrigation methods, to obtain a higher percentage of lambs by their extra care, and raise to a higher standard the breeds they found best for marketable purposes. In any case the State thus gains a wider distribution of peaceful and fairly well-to-do citizens, whose children will have a prospect of permanent homes on or near the property of their parents. Another effect is already conspicuous. Demand for larger sheep in the ever-expanding seats of town industries necessitates the production of long wool, which must sooner or later revolutionise this export. Under the system of large squatters only the fine wool of the Merino sheep was raised, and that is still the material in the outlying districts. As these areas are reached, however,. by the farming grazier, under the modern system of pastoral leasehold, with right of purchase, the Merino will probably retire to the warmer and drier interior of Australia, which the selector is not likely to reach for many years. Notwithstanding the fear of over-production which is excited when a good season occurs, there is no ground for supposing that the Australian clip of 1887-8 will have the smallest effect in disturbing the balance of trade. Indeed, there is every probability that our heavy wool crop in this part of the world will hardly avail to counterbalance the diminished supply in the River Plate, to the results of whose competition many look with grave apprehensions. The simple fact is that, however nearly wool-producing countries may have overtaken the demand for inferior qualities, the reduction in price for really first-class clips has not been so very serious during the period of depression. The following table, quoted by Messrs. Goldsbrough and Co., shows the quantities of River Plate wool to have fallen off in each year since 1885:— RIVER PLATE WOOL SUPPLIES. Year. - Increase.

There is a prevailing opinion in some quarters that the wool-growers of South America occupy a more favourable position than those of Australia, in consequence of the much greater cheapness of land, and its superior carrying capacity, in the River Plate country. But the excessive fluctuations which take place in the supplies of South American wool from climatic causes constitute a drawback which operates even more injuriously on the whole than the occasionally protracted droughts which visit Australia. In Monte Video the pasture in its natural state is not considered by experts to be suitable for sheep. After some progress has been made in the culture of flocks, and just when prosperity seems to have been attained, an epidemic not unfrequently sweeps them off. Scab is one of the most prominent diseases with which flocks are attacked in the Republic mentioned. This misfortune is aggravated by the fact that there is no scab law in the State, and despite the most laborious efforts to protect sheep, they are constantly liable to infection from careless neighbouring selectors. The same difficulties, however, are not encountered in Monte Video in rearing cattle, for which the country appears to be well adapted. In the Argentine Confederation the process of “ refining” has to be adopted in order to prepare the grazing lands for depasturing stock. The grass in its original state stands several feet high, is intermingled with scrub, being very rank, and only fit to support low-grade or wild animals. The first step towards adapting the land for superior breeds of sheep and cattle consists of burning off portions of the coarse vegetation. It is then stocked. The burning process is repeated at intervals, and in the course of three years, under this rtgime, the grass becomes as fine as is found in an English meadow, carrying about two sheep to the acre. But skilled travellers in South America have stated that one Australasian sheep yields as much profit as two sheep do in Buenos Ayres. Sheep in that country are shepherded in flocks of about 2000, and must be yarded every night. The dew is so heavy that unless they are on dry ground over night they are almost certain to be attacked with foot-rot, and die in large numbers. Under these circumstances there is no probability of South American wool competing with Australasian fine long combing wool, though it might compare favourably with our second-class descriptions. While these remarks apply to the Argentine provinces generally there are patches of country which produce the finer qualities. But there is no sign at present of the native farmers applying themselves vigorously to improve their breeds of sheep. As regards the mutton sent home from the Plate, it is pronounced a failure, and the meat-freezing company whose works were established near the city of Buenos Ayres are reported to have lost £28,000 over their undertaking. A trial has been made to send home cargoes of lambs and cattle in fast-sailing steamers, which is not unlikely to succeed. The subjoined table, showing the comparative production of wool over the same series of years, as quoted in the previous table, in Australasia, the River Plate, and the United States, demonstrates how groundless are our fears as to the rivalry of these sources of supply.

From this comparison it appears that the United States produce less wool than in 1881 while the supply from the River Plate is subject to fluctuations more severe than any experienced of late years in Australasia. 8 MELBOURNE CENTENNIAL INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. As the United States constitute a market for Australian wool of growing importance, it may not be inopportune to advert briefly to the great Conference of growers, manufacturers, and wool merchants which was held at Washington in January last. At the opening of that assembly growers seemed not only indisposed to accept any proposals for a moderate reduction of the duty on wool, but, on the contrary, inclined to insist on its being decidedly increased. They were under the impression that carpet wools, which are now admitted at a low duty, were being used for purposes never contemplated when Congress imposed a lower rate of duty upon them than upon Merino wool. It was contended by the growers that 40,000,000 lbs. of carpet wool imported at the lower rate of duty was used for making other goods, and demanded that the present rate of duty upon-carpet wools should be doubled. The manufacturers took occasion to point out that the importation of carpet wools during the previous fiscal year ending June 30th, 1887, amounted to 83,000,000 lbs., and that according to the views of the growers themselves the domestic production of carpet wools could not be set down at more than 20,000,000 lbs., giving a gross supply of 103,000,000 lbs. Of this total 95,000,000 lbs. were known to be used in carpet mills. But as this left only 8,000,000 lbs., or 8 per cent., which could be employed for other purposes, including the manufacture of coarse blankets, the fallacy of the argument of the growers was self-evident. The latter also required that the present rate of duty on Merino wools should be altered. Instead of 5d. per lb. on those up to 15d. per lb., and 6d. per lb. on qualities of higher value, they wished the duty to be changed to 6d. per lb. for wools worth over lOd. per lb. This alteration would be equivalent to increasing the duty on Australian wools from 5d. to 6d. per lb. The Conference sat two days without the growers being convinced that their opinions were impracticable, the result being that a sub-committee was appointed to give the question fuller consideration. Finally it was decided to abandon the wool tariff of 1867, with a few slight modifications which are tantamount to increases. The majority favoured the idea that the duties on woollen goods should be raised even higher than those of the ultra-protectionist tariff of 1867. If the wish of the President of the United States that the large surplus income of the country should be applied in abolishing duties on wool and some other raw materials is not to be acceded to by the American Legislature, it is no less obvious that the recommendations of this Conference have not the smallest chance of being adopted by Congress. The American Wool Reporter, although opposed to free wool, commenting on the absurd attitude assumed by the Conference, says: “ At a period when the whole country is demanding a reduction of the surplus revenues of the Government, when very many protectionists admit that a portion of such reduction should be applied to foreign duties, and when at least an influential minority of the woollen manufacturers of the United States are believers in a lower tariff upon wool, this Conference comes forward with a demand that the wool interests of the nation shall be made a conspicuous exception to the general policy of revenue reduction, and that the duties on wool alone shall be increased, while those on other articles are being reduced.” Complicated as the situation above described appears, it is not difficult to comprehend. The United States are great producers of food products and raw materials. Wool is almost the only raw material they require to import, and the duty on wool is the only sop which the protected manufacturers can give the farmers to keep them in good humour. There is some risk that if the manufacturers should openly throw over the farmers on this question the farmers might be tempted to vote straight for free trade. Hence the inconsistency of holding a Conference in which many woollen manufacturers pretended to favour an increase of duty on wool, while at the same time they knew perfectly well that a reduction was inevitable. It is a singular coincidence that, simultaneously with a tendency to reduce, if not abolish, the wool import duties on the part of Americans in order to facilitate the rapid expansion of their woollen manufactures, a retrospect in the woollen industry in France for 1887 marks a decline. The value of the imports of wool into France for the first eleven months of 1887 amounted to £12,840,000, compared with £15,040,000 in the corresponding part of 1886, the falling off being £2,200,000, or 14£ per cent. During the same period of 1887 the exports of wool fabrics amounted to £12,680,000, as against £13,720,000 in 1886, and the export of yarns to £1,120,000, against £1,400,000, the total decrease being £1,120,000, or percent. On the other hand, these decreases have been contemporaneous with a substantial increase in the imports into France from Great Britain. There has also been a great shrinkage in the amount of business transacted at Havre, the chief centre of purely French transactions in Biver Plate wool, and at Bordeaux, where the bulk of the Biver Plate sheepskins business takes place. The importations of Biver Plate wool into Havre have fallen off from 33,676 bales in 1885 to 16,617 bales in 188,7, and the transit business in Dunkirk has decreased from 139,598 bales in 1885 to 127,486 bales in 1887. In Biver Plate sheepskins France was also a great loser, the Bordeaux imports having fallen off from 65,183 bales in 1885 to 46,541 bales in 1887. From the following table the shipments from Australasia from 1st July, 1887, to 3rd May, 1888, will show at a glance the relative positions of the several colonies as exporters of wool.

The fluctuations, though in no instance wide, showed a declining tendency in prices as a whole, but the closing quotations were almost on a level with those ruling in the first series of sales. These sales opened at an advance of ^d. to Id. per lb. on greasy and Id. to ljd. per lb. on scoured descriptions, compared with the previous December rates. The keenest competition was for good gieasy, combing, and lambs, while washed wools were not in demand. The second (March-April) series showed firmness, the variations either way not exceeding |d. per lb. At the opening of the third (June-July) series there was a fall of Id. on greasy and ^d. to Id. on scoured about the middle of the series, ■when a temporary improvement took place. The fourth (September-October) series opened with a decline on all but superior greasy, the fall on the medium and faulty descriptions of ■unwashed being £d. to Id., and on scoured Id. to 2d. In Goldsbrough’s Annual Review of the Wool Trade for last season, it is stated that “ Yorkshire buyers maintained the lead as regards the quantity taken, although a fair proportion of pieces, certain varieties of crossbred, and the bulk of fine Merinos were now being secured by the Continental section of the trade, who, ■while exercising extreme caution, allowed nothing to escape their notice. The Americans were also buying freely, and many of our choicest selections were secured for the United States and Canada.” New South Wales was prevented by shearing troubles from commencing the selling season for a fortnight later than in the previous year. As the season advanced, however, that •difficulty was satisfactorily adjusted, and between the 12th October and the end of November, about 60,000 bales were disposed of in Sydney, a total which beats all previous records. The fleeces of the eastern colony were charged with an excess of yolk, sometimes congealed in the centre of the staple, while the fibre is reported to have lost considerably in fineness. These characteristics of a good season were also noticeable more or less in the wools of Victoria and some other colonies. At the same time, the season’s clip, as a whole, was considerably above the average. Differences of soil and climate continue to make the distinction in quality very pronounced between the wools of one district and those of another. The Eastern Kiverine kinds this year attained a superior position, ovfing to their well-grown, bright, soft, and extremely light condition; and in consequence they had peculiar attractions for American buyers, whose purchases were on a larger scale than previously. The wools of Western Victoria, while noted for excellence as before, were affected by scarcity of feed during the winter months, and were more light than usual. The soft brown wools from the Upper Lachlan and Central New South Wales have in some measure recovered that silky aspect which commends them so highly to French manufacturers. There is a limited area west of the Darling, from which the w T ool obtained cannot fail eventually to be profitable to growers, since it possesses properties which will always make it popular with spinners. INTRODUCTION TO THE WINE EXHIBITS. Until the International Exhibition of 1881, the wine culture of Australia had experienced' discouraging vicissitudes. The incident which seemed to have had the most powerful effect' in that year in turning the tide was a trophy of solid silver, valued at £800, offered by the late Emperor of Germany “ to an exhibitor in one of the Australasian Colonies as an acknowledg¬ ment of the efforts in promoting art and industry, as shown by the high qualities of the goods manufactured by such exhibitor.” From the day when the award was made, after keen competition, to the most successful exhibitor of Australian wine, the prejudice which had previously existed against that product began to yield. It is stated by Mr. Hubert Castella that “ a few months afterwards the growers of Victoria could count the value of their produce— even of their properties—advanced.” A general improvement in the quality of Australian wines dates from the period referred to, and the Australian wine exhibits at the Indian and Colonial Exhibition in 1886 demonstrated a marked advance in viticulture and in the character of wine manufacture. The foreign demand since that special opportunity occurred of introducing the wines of these colonies to Europe has steadily increased ; and if the article is only duly matured, and in all respects rendered marketable, no Australian industry will prove more inviting to capital and enterprise. With the exception of the sub-tropical portion and the higher parts of the mountain ranges of New South Wales, grape vines thrive in that colony and bear abundant crops of succulent fruit, equal in size to the most renowned products of France, the Ehine lands, and Spain. Still vine culture in New South Wales, as elsewhere in Australia, is only in its infancy. The local demand is barely satisfied by the present supply, and when the market being developed for Australian wine in England is taken into account, to say nothing of India, Japan, and the Malay Peninsula, the future of the industry would appear to be fairly assured, provided the phylloxera pest can be effectually resisted. The total area under vines for 1887 in New South Wales was 5840 acres, but the land planted with vines expressly for making wine did not exceed 8131 acres, yielding 601,897 gallons, the average number of gallons being 192-23 per acre. But this, strangely enough, marks a decline as compared with ten years previously. In Victoria, the warm district of the Murray, of which Butherglen is the centre, supplies at present one-third of the wines of that colony. A fertile plain thirty miles in diameter stretches along the river, and the road from Melbourne passes through the middle of it. Owing to the superior class of wine grown in the shire of Butherglen, the area devoted to the culture of that commodity rose from 700 acres in 1881 to about 3500 acres in 1885. The northern slopes of the ranges in the centre of Victoria, from Stawell to Bendigo, are capable of producing fine wines. The shire of Stawell includes seventy-six vineyards, three of these covering an average of sixty acres, the other seventy-three being only an average of eight acres in extent. At Ararat thirty-eight growers cultivate an average of ten acres each, and at Marong an average of three acres each. Strathfieldsaye, on the Emu Creek, has sixty-two growers, three of whom own over thirty acres, the others averaging five each. Castlemaine and the valley through which the Biver Goulburn runs contains many important vineyards, the principal being the Tahbilk with 250 acres. The wines of the Murray may be compared, with those of Spain and Portugal, while those of Bendigo, Stawell, and the Goulburn correspond to those of the Bhone and the Pyrenees. Grapes grown in a cooler latitude near Melbourne produce wines resembling those of the Ehine and Bordeaux. The Yarra vineyards, situated on the slopes of gentle hills, surrounded by broad flats and flooded in winter, occupy about 400 acres. M. Armand Lalande, president of the Chamber of Commerce of Bordeaux, fixed the price of two red wines grown in Victoria, of the 1879 vintage, at 1000 fr. per tonneau, which was the price of the Crus Bourgeois, superior, of Margaux and St. Julien at two years old. It is the opinion of able judges that there is a stretch of land on the southern coast of Victoria, extending from Cape Otway to the Biver Glenelg, 500 miles long by 60 broad, which represents the most temperate climate of all Australia, and perhaps the most fertile, not yet tried for viticulture, but which may prove one of the most valuable parts of the continent for vine culture. But compared with California, which contains as nearly as possible the same number of inhabitants as Victoria, both the state and the colony having received their first great stimulus to progress from gold! INTRODUCTION TO THE WINE EXHIBITS. 11 discoveries within two years of each other, Victoria is immensely behind as a wine-producing country. The quantity of wine returned by Victoria in 1886-7 was 986,041 gallons, or less than in 1885-6 by nearly 18,000 gallons; but the return of California for the same year was close on 20,000,000 gallons. The backwardness of Victoria in this industry is partly accounted for, however, by the ravages in the Geelong district of the vine disease. The vines were destroyed by statute over an area of 281 acres, the last of the diseased vineyards being uprooted in 1882. Still the phylloxera is not extinct, and the proclaimed district being under quarantine, the planting of vines within its limits has been indefinitely postponed. South Australia has already established her reputation as a wine producer. The pioneer winegrower was the late Mr. John Reynell, whose vineyard was planted as far back as the year 1840. Under the stimulus given to the industry by the writings of William Macarthur, of New South Wales, many vineyards were planted, and in 1870 as many as 895,000 gallons were produced from about 7000 acres of vines. The local demand being rapidly overtaken, the price realised for grapes became unremunerative. The result was that many vineyards went out of cultivation. In recent years, however, the favour into which Australian wines are steadily growing in the English market imparts fresh confidence to growers. The manufacture of wine is being treated with more scientific skill, and in a single year no less an area than 1000 acres has been planted in the neighbourhood of Angaston alone. Among the most successful winegrowers in South Australia is Mr. Thomas Hardy, who has some hundreds of acres under vines at Tintara and Bankside, in addition to the large purchases of grapes he makes from small growers. He has also introduced orange and olive culture on a substantial scale, besides the plantation of muscatel grapes for raisins and Zante grapes for currants, all of which branches promise to become a great source of wealth. The Government of South Australia have marked then - sense of the importance they attach to viticulture by appointing a professor of that science in connection with the Agricultural College, whose duty it is to • analyse the soil of proposed vineyards, advise the class of vine to be planted, give instruction in the proper method of planting, pruning, and rearing the vines, pressing the grapes, and affording general advice on the management of the cellar. According to Sir F. Napier Broome, the Governor of Western Australia, the latter colony is destined to become a great wine country. The necessities of France, resulting from the phylloxera visitation, are Australia’s opportunity. The remarkable extent to which the wine crop in the former country has been diminishing for years past may be understood from the fact that in 1875 it reached 840,000,000 gallons, but in 1885 it had fallen to about 628,000,000 gallons. In March last it seemed highly probable that the import duties on wine would have been abolished by the French Government, but the proposal was subsequently overruled by the Legislative Assembly. A good prospect, notwithstanding, of a trade between France and Australia in the article mentioned may be counted on so soon as this country is prepared to enter the French market. In the opinion of reliable experts two conditions are indispensable to Australia taking a high position in wine manufactures, always assuming that her vineyards can be adequately extended. These are (1) that our wines should be kept' sufficiently long to be mellowed by age, and (2) that the manipulation of wine into approved brands whose quality can be uniformly depended on, should, as a rule, be conducted as a branch altogether distinct from the cultivation of vineyards and the working of the wine¬ press. Among the wines in the Exhibition from Europe, as might be expected, some have been received from Portugal. It may be observed in passing that, as in the French vineyards, the phylloxera devastation has caused an extensive uprooting of old vines and replanting of new cuttings, around Oporto, from California and Australia. The Mustang, or native vine of Arizona, and the Shiraz and Carbinet vines from Australia, are among those introduced on the Douro. The manufacture of wine in Oporto is kept quite distinct from vine culture. The prolonged treading of the grapes in the lagar is found in Portugal to be the only way for securing perfect fermentation and more colour than could be obtained by any other method ; but male labour can be obtained there at Is. 3d. and female labour at 6d. per day. As the supply of genuine port is now small in proportion to the demand, matured vintages are necessarily costly, and some still date as far back as 1815. From the neighbourhood of Madrid comes Val de Penas, a claret largely consumed all over Spain, and much inquired for in England and as far north as Russia. From Xeres comes Pedro Ximenes and other sweet wines, Amontillado and various light-coloured sherries. There are sherries at Port St. Mary sold up to £200 a butt, and some of the old “ Solera,” used for blending purposes, is not to be bought at any price. In Malaga there are red and white wines—Rota Tent, Muscatel, and others—from one to two hundred years old. At Alcanzar, San Juan, about ninety miles from Madrid, wines are made from the Bosuno, Pardilio, and “Pinto Gordo” grapes for the French market. Ordinary dry Tarragona is red, under 26 degs., unfortified, deep in colour, and rough on the palate as if the stalk were fermented. It is shipped at £11 per pipe of 125 gallons ; sweet Tarragona, or Spanish port, at £12; and sherry at £12 per butt of 108 gallons. The bulk of the wine shipped from» Tarragona is made in Lerida, some thirty miles distant. 112 MELBOURNE CENTENNIAL INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. In Bordeaux, the great wine centre of France, some of the cellars are one hundred and fifty years old, and under ground. The fine wines of that place are racked every three months the first year, twice the second, and once the year after. In all the best claret vineyards five kinds of grapes are grown and gathered separately, beginning with the Malbec, the sub¬ sequent descriptions in order being the Merlot, Carbinet, Sauvignon, Carmenet, and Verdot. ' The juice from each is fermented in different vats, and, when drawn off, a proportion of each is put into each separate hogshead. It often takes a week or more to complete the filling in this way, and the wine taiies no harm from being kept on ullage during the time of filling. On the Garonne, many of the cellars are above ground, but are mostly arched over, cool and damp, the walls, casks, and bottles being covered with a greenish mould. In one cellar may be seen stacked as many as 300,000 bottles, including Chateaux Margaux, Chateau Yquern, and many others of exquisite bouquet and flavour. There are exliibits of wine from Epernay, and sparkling wines from the Rhine. In the latter district the white wines are usually made from the Reisling grape, and pressed off from the skins as early as possible. Received from the growers in February or March, they are fit to bottle for sparkling wines in June or July following, when they are treated by the same process as champagne. There is a portion of the juice of the Pineau Noir mixed with the Reisling, and thus, it is believed, the wine is helped to clear in the bottle. A certain proportion of syrup is also put into each bottle to help effervescence. As for Rudesheim, Johannesberg, Steinberg, Moselle, and many other brands, visitors to the Wine Court can have opportunities ■ of testing their qualities. INTRODUCTION TO THE NEW SOUTH WALES COURT: Dubing the sixty-three years immediately succeeding the arrival of Governor Phillip in New South Wales in 1788, the two events which exercised most potent influence on the destinies of the colony were the final rejection of convict deportation from England in 1849, and the re-discovery of gold by Hargreaves at Lewis Pond Creek in 1851. The first incident resulted in the foundations of free settlement and untrammelled enterprise, and the second suddenly precipitated so large and active a population in the colony that the old political constitution, under which the early immigrants were ruled, was found not sufficiently elastic to meet the political and social requirements created by the altered circumstances. The Crown, in consequence, felt it expedient to grant responsible government, which was formally inaugurated by Governor Denison a few years subsequently. It is only by estimating aright the operation respectively of these two factors that the striking progress of the colony during the first century of its existence can be fully realised. The estimated population of the colony on the 31st December, 1887, was 1,042,919, the increase for the year being 40,953. There is an exceptional circumstance not to be overlooked, moreover, as contributing very materially to the prosperity of New South Wales. She enjoys the lion’s share of advantage among Australian colonies in the possession of navigable rivers. The Darling is available for navigation 1758 miles, the Murrumbidgee and the Lachlan combined, 900 miles; while the Murray, from one of the goldfields to the point where it enters the territory of South Australia,- has a length of 1120 miles. If to this be added the navigable length of the Wakool and Edward, the total extent of rivers fit for the conveyance of merchandise within the colony approaches nearly 4200 miles in the Western District alone. To a country more than two and a half times larger than the United Kingdom, and containing vast interior tracts of pastoral and agricultural land, this is a natural boon, the value of which cannot be over- estimated. Land undeb Cultivation. —As specimens of the various products of the soil, the foundry, the loom, and the factory meet the eye in the New South Wales Court, it is impossible, in an International Exhibition commemorative of the close of the first hundred years of the development of the colony, to avoid being impressed with the stupendous contrast between the beginning of that period and its termination. In 1788, and for some time afterwards, the hoe was the sole implement in the power of pioneers for sowing wheat. As if at the touch of Aladdin’s lamp, we find a century afterwards 389,390 acres within the limits of the colony laid down in wheat, 171,662 acres in maize, and 19,393 in oats. Potatoes were raised on 20,915 acres; sugar cane, of productive quality, on 13,119 acres; barley on 4402 acres; tobacco on 2371 acres; and grapes, for wine, on 3292 acres. But the expansion of population, from natural increase and immigration, is so great that the bread yield of the colony is still far below what is necessary for self-support, and during last year, in addition to a large quantity of wheat, 1,368,420 cwts. of flour were imported. Feuit.— Goulburn and a large section of country through which the Great Southern Bailway line passes possess conditions both of soil and climate for the cultivation of English fruits and vegetables as well as cereals. The Great Western line runs through a region famous for oranges and vineyards, though the orange groves around Sydney, Parramatta, and on the Lower Hunter Biver are also highly profitable. Taking the colony as a whole, many semi-tropical products, in addition to fruits belonging to temperate zones, including lemons, bananas, figs, and pine-apples, are grown in profusion. Arrowroot, olives, and capers have been raised in the north, but not on any scale to speak of. Orange groves spread from Parramatta to the districts of Byde, Pennant Hills, Lane Cove, Central Cumberland, and the Hawkesbury and Nepean Valleys. The production of oranges has nearly doubled since 1878, and, as the supply considerably exceeds the demand in New South Wales as well as in adjacent colonies, growers are compelled to seek an outlet in London, where the fruit can be delivered after the shipments from orange-bearing countries in the Northern hemisphere have ceased. But the culture of other kinds of fruit than grapes and oranges would seem to be retrograding, since New South Wales is dependent on surrounding colonies to the extent of nearly a quarter of a million sterling per annum for various kinds of fruit and vegetables,, which could be advantageously cultivated in the colony.

On 31st March, 1888—in twelve years— the area cultivated had risen to 1,048,305 acres, which is equal to one acre per head of the population. In 1876 the area of unenclosed land was equal to two-fifths of the whole area of holdings, but in the beginning of 1887 the proportion had fallen to much less than one-tenth, the area unenclosed at the latter period being only 3,397,286 acres out of a total of 36,726,169 , acres occupied. The area absolutely unfit for cultivation is estimated at 5,000,000 acres. The . chief drawback to successful husbandry in the colony is an irregular rainfall, and want of , uniformity in the season; but an extension of irrigation will introduce the needed remedy. Last year’s record showed the number of holdings to be 46,162, representing a freehold area . of 33,176,768 acres, and the leasehold 3,640,723 acres. But the largest proportion of the territory of 206,999,680 acres, belonging to the Crown, was rented by squatters. Of the acreage alienated, 1,048,305 acres were under cultivation, 32,446,900 acres were enclosed (though used only for grazing purposes), and 3,328,197 remained unenclosed. The agricultural statistics for the year ended 31st March last show that the total area under cultivation was 1,048,305 acres, being an increase of 70,641 acres. The wheat crop was over 389,390 acres, and yielded 4,953,125 bushels, or 915,719 less than in the previous year, although the area cropped was larger by 70,641 acres. The yield was 12-72 bushels per . acre. The area under maize was 171,662 acres, being slightly larger than last year. The yield was 4,953,125 bushels, or 28 85 bushels per acre, being considerably below the average of the last ten years. Very small areas were under barley and oats, which averaged 19 and 27 bushels per acre respectively. The hay crops were much smaller than previously, the total yield being 230,000 tons from 170,000 acres. Potatoes yielded 61,455 tons, as compared with 45,803 tons in 1887, when the area cropped was slightly less. Sugar cane was grown on 13,119 acres, as compared with 5915 in the previous year, and it yielded 273,928 tons, as against 167,959. The area devoted to tobacco increased from 1203 to 2371 acres, and the crop from 13,642 cwt. to 23,465 cwt., while the vineyards produced 669,988 gallons of wine, compared with 601,897 in 1887. Timber. —Among indigenous woods of commercial value, the redgum stands high, being almost as durable as the jarrah of Western Australia. The ironbark, noted for its hardness, is used in shipbuilding, and its life is estimated at fifty years. The blue and white gums are also of use for constructive purposes. But the cedar, which is found in the northern parts of the colony, on flats of tributaries of the eastern rivers, is the most valuable timber of all. For decorative wood carvings, cabinet fittings, and most indoor uses, it is in general request. The fronds of the cabbage-tree palm, which is found in the coast districts, are extensively worked up in the hat-making industry. The Mesembryanthetnum is largely found on the plains, and is found to be a valuable grazing food for sheep and cattle. Flocks and Herds.— In Phillip’s day, and for some time afterwards, it seemed as if all . attempts to breed flocks of sheep and herds of cattle would prove abortive. The latest returns show the wonderful change which has passed over the spirit of the scene in this respect:-—390,609 horses, 1,575,487 cattle, 46,965,152 sheep, and 264,111 pigs, are spread over the hills, valleys, and plains of the colony. Diamond drills and water augers, by aiding in the discovery of water supplies in the arid west, have helped much to alleviate the suffering and loss caused by droughts. INTRODUCTION TO THE NEW SOUTH WALES COURT. 15 Mixing.— Those who first landed at Botany Bay did not venture to dream of the existence -if ’mining resources or the establishment of mining industries in a region only deemed fit originally for a penal settlement. The following table will best exhibit the aggregate mineral and metallic wealth dug out of the soil from the foundation of the colony up to the close of 1887:— Minerals. Quantity. Value. Gold .. 9,845,906-77 ozs. £36,470,310 Silver .. . 2,923,037-62 „ 612,886 Silver Lead (Ore ) „ ,, (Metal) 28,825 tons 1,193,463 Iron 33,591 „ 265,465 Tin (Ingots) 7,927,876 ,, (Regulus and Ore) Copper ,, 82,892 „ 5,163,228 Coal 39,942,907 „ 19,699,109 Shale .. 481,252 „ 1,083,174 The gold return for 1887 is better than the return for 1886 by £28,000, the totals being £366,000 and £394,000 respectively, while the export of silver and of silver and lead ore has increased as follows :— 1882 .. .. .. £9,384 1887 .. .. • • £574,410 The mineral output in New [South Wales (including coal) now exceeds £3,000,000 per annum, the figures being £3,165,938; and if the recent investments are at all to be justified, that total ought to be doubled this year. The average winnings per head of the miners appear to be as follows:— Gold Silver Coal Copper Tin if- lue • ', o , 0 , £64 per annum 345 ,, 205 151 160 The total value of minerals and metals produced ’ "he close of 1887 amounted to nearly £73,000,000. With reference to gold, it is noteworthy/^**. although that metal has been the greatest attraction in bringing New South Wales undt- r toe notice of the outside world, gold¬ mining for the moment yields in importance to silver, coal, and tin; while compared with pas¬ toral and agricultural produce, the annual value of gold hitherto obtained is inconsiderable. Of the thousands drawn to the colony in the hope of easily acquiring a fortune on the fields of the Turon, not a few have remained to direct their attention to less precarious and less exciting pursuits. Hydraulic sluicing is only in operation in two or three mines in the Kiandra district, and many rich quartz claims were abandoned in former times for want of suitable appliances for dealing with refractory ores. In 1887 the total yield was returned at 110,286 ozs., valued at £394,579, being an increase of £28,285 on 1886. The value of the machinery employed on alluvial and quartz diggings was £293,977. The number of gold miners was 6767, of whom 3942 were engaged in alluvial, and 2665 in quartz mining, 857 being Chinese. The average yield of gold per ton from washdirt was 8 dwts. 7-64 grs., and from quartz 12 dwts. 9-67 grs. New South Wales has acquired distinction during the past three years in the development of her splendid silver mines along the Barrier Ranges, at Broken Hill, Umberumberka, the Pinnacle, in the Albert district, and Sunny Corner in the Western district, where extensive works are now carried on, and at many other points which bid fair to rival, if not surpass, the celebrated Comstock and Virginia lodes of the United States. The now famous Broken Hill Proprietary Company’s mine was originally held by a small syndicate, but was formed into a limited liability Company in 1885, with 16,000 shares of the nominal value of £19 each paid-up, and these are now quoted at £239. In the Silverton district very satisfactory progress has been made during the period, although most of the mines are but in their infancy, and will require a large amount of capital for their successful development. The distribution of copper in the colony is very extensive, but for some time copper mining has been depressed here, as in all other cupriferous localities, by the low market value of that metal, which has only rallied to a remunerative figure within the last few months. The formations of this character are understood to cover about 6713 square miles, equal to 4,296,320 acres. The ore contains from 9 to 20 per cent, of metal, and during the year the • exports amounted to 94,319 ingots, and ore was valued at £198,827. 16 MELBOURNE CENTENNIAL INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. As may be judged from the exhibits, the colony is rich in tin, large quantities of which have been discovered in recent years. The area of stanniferous country in New South Wales is estimated at 8500 square miles, or 5,440,000 acres. Yet of this total area only a few square miles have been opened, and but a small section exhausted. For the year already mentioned the returns show 4669 tons ingots, and 5833 tons ore and regulus, to have been obtained, at a value of £525,420. The improved price of this metal of late will doubtless have the effect of attracting more attention from capitalists to these deposits. The year’s production in iron was 3686 tons, valued at £19,068. A high authority has stated that “ the most promising iron region in the colony is that traversed by the railway line from the foot of the Zig-Zag to Wallerawang. This district is rich in deposits of coal, iron, copper, and other minerals.” The economic backbone of New South Wales consists of its coal measures, which extend from the 29th to the 36th parallel of south latitude, and branch out to the beach along many miles of coast. The seams are almost equal in quality to the best Welsh coal for steam-generating purposes, while for gas-producing it is superior. Not more than 600 tons were raised in 1823, but for 1887 the output was 2,922,497 tons, valued at £1,346,440, and employment was given to 7998 pitmen and others in raising the mineral. The computed coal area of the colony approaches in extent 23,950 square miles. In the Ulawarra, Bathurst, Berrima, and other districts, immense deposits of kerosene shale have been brought to light, and large factories are being carried on for the raising and manufacture of oil. In some of the diamond claims at Tongha heavy finds of that precious stone have been made, and quantities sufficient have been met with in Bingera and Tingha to encourage the further prosecution of the industry. It is supposed, however, that many diamonds are lost for want of effective appliances to save them. Kailways —Twenty years after railways were commenced only 406 miles of line were opened for traffic, being an average of 20 miles per annum. Within the last ten years, however, 1380 miles have been opened for traffic, making the total mileage in operation on 81st December, 1887, 2036 miles. Besides, Parliament has authorised the construction of an additional 1413 miles, a portion of which is now in progress of being made. To the end of 1887 the total capital expended on this department of public works was £26,554,357, the revenue derived from existing lines being—£1,357,796 derived from goods, and £850,499 from passengers. The effect of the junction of the New South Wales and Victorian lines at Albury in 1883 has been to draw closer th&ofwo colonies in ties of mutual interest by the greatly increased facilities thus offered for spgiily passenger traffic between their respective capitals- It is satisfactory, moreover, to ol vwei that the steady development of the great natural resources of New South Wales is C^gsdent with the extension of railways, as is shown in the improving returns of the latter. gross business for 1887, during which 146 miles were opened, was £2,208,295, and t^^nking expenses £1,457,761, leaving a net balance of £750,534, which, upon the capital ^he date specified above, is equal to 2-96 per cent. The number of persons employed on the railways and tramways was about 10,000. The weight ol goods carried by rail during the year was 3,339,253 tons, comprising mainly cattle, coal, and wool. The number of passengers carried was 14,451,303. The earnings per train per mile in 1885 were 78-61 pence; in 1886, 80-01 pence ; and in 1887, 81-88 pence. The working expenses per mile open for traffic were in 1885, £876 56; in 1886, £834-07; and in 1887,. £753-17. Banking.— The paid-up capital of the fourteen banking companies of Sydney at the end of December, 1887, was returned at £13,150,320, the total assets at £42,874,844, and the liabilities at £31,732,276. The annual dividend to shareholders varied from 6 to 25 per cent., the reserve profits being £7,067,807. The depositors in Government Savings Banks numbered 118,875, the balance to their credit being £3,675,893, an average of £31 to the credit of each depositor. Ccmpared with the year preceding, this shows an increase of £171,089 in the credit balance at the close of the year, a circumstance which would seem to point to less distress among the working- classes, as there has also been an increase of 6931 depositors. Mills and Factories.— The total number of mills and factories of all descriptions was returned at 3508. Of these, 231 were occupied in working on raw materials from pastoral sources, 797 were for the manufacture of food and drink, 36 were in some way associated with or dependent on agriculture, 844 were connected with building industries, 295 were devoted to the working of metals and the manufacture of machines, 60 establishments were described as boot factories, 65 as clothing factories, 202 as coach and waggon factories, and 149 as printing offices. Five woollen factories turned out 348,COO yards of cloth ; 52 soap and candle works produced 190,060 cwt. of soap, and 2,442,960 cwt. of candles; 13 tobacco factories turned out 2,147,418 lbs. of tobacco, 57 sugar mills 450,000 cwt. of sugar and 880,000 gallons of molasses, and one sugar refinery manufactured 562,300 cwt. of refined sugar. During the year 197,016 gallons of rum were distilled from 42,941 cwt. of molasses, 32 boiling-down establishments produced 335,292 cwt. of tallow, 75 breweries manufactured. INTRODUCTION TO THE NEW SOUTH WALES COURT. 17 9,720,000 gallons of ale and beer; the boot factories disposed of 1,881,210 pairs of boots and shoes, and the output of 282 brickyards was 214,198,600 bricks. The total of workpeople employed was 44,360—40,636 males and 3724 females. Shipping. —The shipping tonnage of New South Wales has nearly doubled in the decade ending 1887, in which year 2815 vessels arrived, with a tonnage amounting to 2,142,457 tons; and 2906 vessels departed, with a tonnage of 2,180,301 tons. The addition of the French and German lines of steamers has materially added to the shipping of Sydney, although 88 per cent, of the whole in the twelve months was owned by British proprietors. Trade.— The imports from the United States include timber, breadstuffs, hardware, tobacco and cigars, kerosene, preserved fish, watches and clocks, machinery, leather, and furniture. Exports to the States chiefly embrace gold, coal, tin, skins, and shale. Should the duty be reduced on Australian wool passing into America, a vast expansion of trade in that article is certain. Business with France, Germany, and Belgium has been eminently progressive, especially with the two latter countries; and it has in each case received an obvious impulse from the International Exhibitions of 1879 and 1880-1. With Great Britain 49’81 per cent, of the trade of the colony is carried on. An amended scale of duties came into force in the colony on 1st October, 1887. The list of specific duties has been reduced to 65, and the ad valorem duties have been abolished. But the result of this change will necessarily take some time to declare itself. Between New South Wales and the other colonies the total volume of trade for the same annual period was £15,286,758, without including the figures for Western Australia. Compared with 1877, the increase recorded does not exceed £2,170,000, while the four years 1882-5 show a larger result than in 1886, the fluctuation being principally due to variation in seasons. During the year 1887 the total value of trade between New South Wales and the other colonies was £17,619,985. Exports and Imports. —The imports from foreign countries for the same period were £18,806,236, and the foreign exports £18,496,917; the excess of imports over exports being £309,319. It is noteworthy that the imports from the United Kingdom fell off within the year £2,167,312, compared with the previous twelve months, owing to the diminished purchasing power of the colony; this result being due to pastoral and agricultural depression. The total imports per head of the population amounted to £18 7s. 10Jd., and the exports to £18 Is. lOd. per head; the population at the beginning of 1888 being estimated at 1,042,919, of which 574,012 were males and 468,907 were females. Bevenue.— The revenue for the period was £8,589,001, the rate of taxation being £2 12s. 2d. per head; and the expenditure, inclusive of recoups , was £9,582,593. Public and Private Wealth.— The estimated value of the public and private wealth of the colony on the 1st January, 1887, was £521,000,000, or about £520 per head of the popu¬ lation. The public estate is valued at £175,128,000, or £174 13s. 2d. per head; and the collective private wealth at £346,250,000. Yol. I. 3 General Importers, Paper Merchants, &c.

A published record by a critical observer of the Victorian Collection at the London Exhibition of 1862 states that: “Altogether, for variety and importance, no collection in the Exhibition equalled that of Victoria, which received more prize medals and honourable mentions than any other dependency of England except India.” The ambition to imitate high ideals and culti¬ vate persistent activity in her skilled pursuits, which won for her such distinguished praise on her first appearance at an Exhibition in the Imperial metropolis, has obviously not deserted her on the present occasion. Population and Finance.— The opening of the Centennial Exhibition finds Victoria in a condition of unexampled prosperity as regards her public revenue, the transactions of her financial institutions, the extent of her mercantile, agricultural, and pastoral operations, and the volume of business done on the Stock Exchange. The estimated population on March 31st, 1888, was 1,047,308, which represents an increase for the quarter of 11,189. The amount of revenue collected during the twelve months, 1887-8, was £7,607,753, showing an increase of £873,928 on the total figures of 1886, and £751,047 above the budget estimate. There was an increase of nearly £288,142 in the income from railways, and the Customs Department collected upwards of £220,689 more than in the year preceding. Among the more striking features in the last twelve months is the extraordinary advance in the values of city and suburban property in and around the capital. In some of the principal streets of Melbourne the rise in the price of sites has ranged from 50 to 100 per cent., reaching in some instances £2000 per foot frontage, and up to the present no sign is visible of an adverse movement in values. Banking activity may be accepted as a sure test of the material progress of a state, and in this respect Victoria continues to appear to advantage. Both the liabilities and assets oftheeleven recognised banking establishments expand in a very satisfactory ratio. The liabilities of these institutions at the close of the first half of 1887 was £35,631,420, their assets being £43,623,030. Under each of these heads Victoria takes the first place among the Australian colonies. The total in the care of the Post-office and General Savings Banks in 1886 was £3,589,916 at the credit of 189,359 depositors, and the amount of deposits with building societies at the end of the same year was £2,910,792. These figures speak volumes for the thrift and comfort pre¬ vailing among the working classes of the colony. The progressive wealth of the community has been carefully calculated by the Government Statist. Independently of the value of Crown lands, Government and municipal buildings, hospitals, churches, State-schools, railways, telegraphs, forts, war-vessels, libraries, museums, and the like, the total wealth of the Victorian population has nearly doubled between the quinquennial period, 1872-76, and that of 1882-86. An average of 936,157 persons in that latter period owned property to the value of £285,527,885. Commerce and Shipping.— A general summary of the import, export, transhipment, and shipping returns for the year ending December 31st, 1887, shows the imports for the twelve months to be £19,022,151, inclusive of border trade worth £3,445,067, the total amount of duty collected being £2,264,773. The value of the exports amounted to £11,351,145, of which £8,502,979 represented the produce and manufacture of the colony, and £2,848,166 British, foreign, and colonial (apart from Victorian) produce and manufactures. The decline in the export value in the last two years is mainly due to a heavy diminution in the amount of gold which left the colony, owing to the exceptionally large amount of capital remitted by draft from London to the colony for investment purposes. The imports for 1886 amounted to £18,530,575, and the exports to £11,795,321. A return of the shipping indicates that 2435 vessels of an aggregate tonnage of 1,920,180 tons, and carrying crews numbering 80,918 persons, entered Victorian ports during 1887, while 2418 vessels, of 1,938,063 tons burden, and carrying 79,888 persons as crews, were cleared from Victorian ports during the same period. The tonnage inwards from the United Kingdom, the Australasian colonies, and all other colonies, has continued to expand without a single relapse for a number of years; but the tonnage outwards to all these destinations has for a like period been marked by fluctuations. Agriculture. —It is fifty-three years since the first white immigrant settled on Victorian soil, but until a liberal Land Act was framed, in 1869, agricultural development was slow. After the passing of that measure wheat-growing, especially on the northern plains, sprang into great dimensions. In 1873 the land under cultivation was 964,996 acres, and ten years later it amounted to 2,215,923 acres, in 1886-7 to 2,417,582 acres, and in 1887-8 to 2,576,405 Tourists should Visit Fernshawe. INTRODUCTION TO THE VICTORIAN COURT. 39 acres, showing an increase on the year of 158,823 acres. The total extent under the wheat crop in 1873 was 349,976 acres; in 1883, 1,104,393 acres; in 1888, 1,232,943 acres. The gross yield of that cereal in 1888 was 13,328,375 bushels, exceeding that of 1887 by 1,228,729 bushels. Farmers who bring skill to bear upon their industry obtain from 35 to 45 bushels of wheat, as also of oats and barley, per acre in districts where the general average is not more than 15 to 20 bushels per acre. Oats reached a production in 1887-8 of 4,562,530 bushels; maize, 318,551 bushels; barley, for malting and other purposes, 956,476 bushels; potatoes, 198,225 tons; and hay, 624,122 tons. The extent of fanning operations in the colony may be inferred from the number and power of steam engines used on farms, and the value of fanning plant and im¬ provements. The horse-power in the steam engines returned for 1886-7 was 4059, against 3390 in the previous year. The value of machines and farming implements, which was £2,674,613 in 1885-6, rose to £2,687,671 in 1886-7; and the advance in improvements on farms appears in the fact that these in the former year amounted to £ 16,017,098, and in the latter £16,418,012. Live Stock.— In March, 1887, the estimated number of horses was 30S,553; cattle, 1,303,265; sheep, 10,700,403; and pigs, 240,957. With the exception of the description of animal last named, these figures represent a substantial increase compared with the returns at the date of the International Exhibition held in Victoria in 1881. The trade in horses with India has lately assumed considerable proportions, in consequence of demands for the army and cavalry remounts, over 3000 per annum being now shipped from Melbourne to supply these. Ponies, with buggy and omnibus horses, during the past few years have been in extensive request. The cattle originally bred in the colony consisted mainly of short¬ horns, Herefords, and Devons, but gradually the herds of Herefords and Devons were given up, stud herds of shorthorns being preferred. Animals of the highest lineage were imported from England. This high-bred stock has become so acclimated to their southern home that they are quite equal to those reared in Great Britain. The desire for stock of high pedigree became so absorbing that, only a few years ago, an imported bull of pure “ Duchess” blood realised 4000 guineas in Melbourne. As to sheep, the Merino is invariably the kind bred on the large pastoral properties, but in places where there is a rainfall above the general average, the long-wool is always selected by farmers. Of the long-wool breeds the Lincoln prevails. Leicesters, which were grown for a time, are now being merged in the Lincoln flocks. In a few cold and wet localities the Romney Marsh sheep are reared, but their numbers are small compared with the Merinoes and Lincolns. Among the other breeds only one or two small flocks of Cotswolds and Southdowns are bred in Victoria, as these have never been regarded with favour by Victorian flockmasters. Instead of leaving sheep solely at the mercy of the natural pastures of the colony, experiments are now being made to ascertain how fodder can be provided for them to meet a bad season. Dairy Farming.— The exhibits in this department cannot fail to interest those practically .concerned in dairy products in view of the prospective importance attaching to them as articles of export to Great Britain. The milk, butter, and cheese annually produced in the colony is valued at nearly £3,000,000. In average seasons the production is equal to the local demand, leaving a considerable surplus for exportation to the neighbouring colonies. It is the factory system which has enabled the Americans to send such large quantities of butter and cheese to outside markets, and the introduction of that system here marks a transition stage in the rapid progress of this description of farming. New Zealand and New South Wales have already proved what may be done by other Australian colonies in disposing profitably of their butter in the English market, and what is possible with the aid of refrigeration in the case of butter, fresh beef, and mutton, is practicable with cheese. Dairy produce manufactured during the spring and summer of the colony can reach England in time to supply the winter market in that country. In this respect, as in many others, the southern part of Australia possesses a great advantage over North America, the seasons of the latter being simultaneous with those of Europe. The farmer on the superior grazing lands of the Mississippi valley and on the western prairies is compelled to house and feed his stock in winter, while in Victoria the fine-woolled Merino sheep, horses, fattening cattle, and daily cows often thrive upon natural pastures without shelter. At the same time, in this colony produce can be conveyed to the place of shipment from the remotest of its boundaries at a cost trifling, as compared with that involved in the transportation of produce by rail to the coast from the interior of the United States. Fruit.— The fruit Exhibits tend materially to strengthen the conviction that fruit-growing for export on a large scale to Europe is an element of latent colonial wealth, the possible magnitude of which has as yet scarcely been realised. The requirements for success in this branch are proper selection, picking, and packing. The bulk of Victorian farmers seem wedded to the growth of cereals, as were those of California, where only a few years ago the people of Napa Valley decided to *ry fruit as likely to be much more remunerative. The •success which has attended the experiment is best seen in the published returns of that industry. One man netted last year £1200 from 70 acres of orchard; another gathering 600 Jefferson’s Hotel Beautiful Scenery. Best Accommodation. LENDS MONEY AT LOWEST RATES. The Victorian Permanent Building Society 4U MELBOURNE CENTENNIAL INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. boxes of Bartlett pears from 300 trees—100 to the acre—clearing, after payment of expenses, 6s. per box at the canning factory; another netted £940 from five acres of prunes. Although Napa Valley has only become the centre of these operations comparatively within the last few years, fortunes are made out of grapes, citrous fruits, English walnuts, almonds, and olives. Victorian consumers are paying £20,000 annually for olive oil, which could be produced from their own soil; while the Californians have discovered “ that an olive plantation is a. gold mine—even on the rockiest and most uninviting soil.” But had Australia been colonised by Greek, Italian, or French olive growers, it would probably have produced large quantities of oil and preserved olives long ago. A beginning has been made in the export of apples and pears to England. The Victorian Commissioner at the late Indian and Colonial Exhibition, held in 1886, recently stated that “when he was in London, some of the very large fruit houses were desirous of opening up a trade with the colonies, and one house had given an order to have regular consignments of fruit forwarded. From March to June there was no fruit in season in London, and the clubs would be ready to pay fancy prices for it. There was a large market, providing the fruit was well packed, arrived in good condition, and went direct to the fruit houses and not into the hands of agents.” The culture of the raisin grape, of which specimens are exhibited, has only been systematically commenced as yet by one or two growers in all Australia, while the dimensions attained by this department of the vine industry in California are already very considerable, in spite of less favourable topographical conditions. The successful cultivation of the raisin grape is only possible under uninterrupted sunshine, the absence of fog or rain during the period of ripening, a rich alluvial soil, with moisture sufficient to keep the vine growing till the grapes begin to ripen, and the absence of spring frosts. Only scattered areas,, limited in extent, having these essential requisites, are to be found in California. The whole of the Goulburn Valley, on the other hand, with many thousands of acres in other parts of Victoria, are exceptionally favoured in the possession of these conditions for the prosperous culture of the raisin grape. Ten years ago the Californian raisin was unknown, but in 1887 the production was close on 10,000 tons, and this immense production will have to be six times as large before the demand of the eastern states of the union alone can be met. The price averaged by the Californian producer for this kind of fruit in the dryer is 2Jd. per lb., which gives to the raisin-growers of the state a total of £200,000. The average raisin vine¬ yards of Fresno, San Bernardino, and Los Angeles are not more than twenty acres in extent. From these twenty-acre blocks, with the vines from four years old and upwards, the net annual profit per acre is from £15 to £50. Considering the minimum of capital and labour required, it is the general opinion in California that raisin-growing is more profitable than any other branch of agriculture. Australian farmers suitably circumstanced for deriving practical advantage from that fact can draw the lesson for themselves. The excellent condition in which several cases of Australian oranges recently arrived in London has prominently directed attention to the possibility of this description of Australian fruit regularly supplying the metropolitan market from August to November—the months during which the Spanish supply ceases. The northern portions of Victoria are admirably adapted for orange culture, and only await an adequate amount of capital, enterprise, and labour to be utilised for that purpose. Fruit brokers in England predict a great future for the Australian orange trade, provided the difficulty with which it is at present handicapped in respect to freight, as compared with countries nearer Great Britain, can be removed. The freight from Melbourne is four times as great as it is from Valencia. Cases one-half the size of those received by English importers from Valencia cost in freight Is. 6d. each from Spain, and 3s. to 4s. from Melbourne. This is a serious difference, but the demand for oranges exists and is growing in the parent country, and if Australian growers will be as careful in packing their oranges as the Spaniards, a bright future awaits the industry. If this condition be observed, oranges will keep for a much longer period than is occupied by a steamer in covering the distance between these colonies and Europe. Of course, towards the end of the season, when they are dead ripe, they are more delicate, and will decay sooner, but with ordinary care they will stand the voyage without difficulty. Mining.— Foremost among the exhibits in the mining section is a valuable collection of geological and mineral specimens, illustrative of the mineral resources of Victoria, sent by the Secretary of Mines. As it is to her mining resources that Victoria was indebted for the sudden expansion of her population, wealth, and enterprise thirty-seven years ago and subsequently, mining prospects must remain a question of vital interest to the colony. The yield of gold shows a tendency to increase. The total amount of that metal produced in 1886 was 665,196 ozs., being, without exception, the smallest annual return since 1851. During the nine years dating from 1871 there was a gradual decline, but an improvement took place from 1880 to 1882. The returns from the latter date to the close of 1886 exhibit a renewed shrinkage, from which, however, happily a marked recovery occurred last year, when an increase was noted in the September quarter of 15,899 ozs., and in the December quarter an increase of 6309 ozs. Owing to public attention being specially diverted to silver, however, the gold returns for the first quarter of 1888 mark a decrease of 9594 ozs. According to the 46 Collins Street East. Robert Lormer, Secretary. The Victorian Permanent Building Society INTRODUCTION TO THE VICTORIAN COURT. j Government Statist, the value of the gold raised in Victoria prior to 18S6, and including the output for that year, reached a total of £217,572,728. The estimated value of minerals and metals, other than gold, from 1851 to 1S86, was £849,722. The mining population of the colony for the quarter ended 31st March last was estimated at 25,947. In quartz-mining 12,618 miners were employed, and 13,329 in alluvial mining. Of the total mining population, 4076 were Chinese—a decrease of 100 on the previous quarter. A circumstance eminently favourable to mining progress in Victoria is the interest which, within the past three years, has been excited in Australian mines of a promising or remune¬ rative character on the London Stock Exchange. It is a curious fact that, despite the enormous amount of gold taken from Victorian mines, it was found almost impossible, until lately, to secure the formation of public companies in England for purchasing and working even the best of them. At length, however, the prejudice which deprived Victoria of the co-operation of British capitalists has, to a large extent, given way. In 1886-7 several Victorian mines * were successfully floated in the British market, and if only prudence and honesty uniformly characterise the transactions of vendors of mines here and buyers in England, confidence in our metalliferous resources cannot fail to increase in Europe. Manufactures.— In 1887, as compared with 1886, the wheat operated upon in the flour mills of the colony increased by 426,000 bushels, and the flour made, by 2508 tons; but the other grain dealt with fell off by 103,000 bushels. There were fewer: pairs of stones by 49, but the sets of steel rollers in use increased by 17, and the latter system of grinding flour continues in a marked degree to increase. Distilleries show an advance in the quantity of spirits made, and the number of hands in breweries returned in 1887 increased by 62. The quantities of malt, sugar, and hops used in the manufacture of beer were considerably larger, and the beer made was 16,088,462 gallons, against 14,753,152 gallons in the year preceding. The beer brewed and imported, less that exported, in 1884-6 represented an average of 16 gallons per head. This proportion of annual consumption places Victoria below the United Kingdom, Germany, Holland, and New South Wales as a beer-drinking community. There was an augmented value in the bricks made of £31,980 in 1887 compared with 1886. But the business of tanneries, fellmongeries, wool-washing establishments, and woollen mills, indicates a downward movement, which is doubtless only of a temporary character. The same remark applies to tobacco manufacture. Since the Exhibition of 1880-1 the number of manufacturing establishments in Victoria rose from 2468 to 2770 in 1886-7, the hands employed at the latter date being 45,773, and the approximate value of machinery, plant, lands, and buildings, £11,028,158. The number of establishments increased 11 per cent, between 1881 and 1887, and the number of hands 6 per cent, in that interval, while the value of the machinery rose 37 per cent. Machinery.— Visitors to the Exhibition are furnished with a practical illustration of the arduous worn undertaken in the irrigation of the Mildura settlement. The figures published annually by the Government Statist, apart from the unchallengeable testimony of other countries exposed to the risk of droughts, abundantly prove the efficacy of irrigation in notably increasing the yield of crops sown; and if the success of the Messrs. Chaffey as irrigators in California may be taken as an earnest of what can be achieved by them here, the lessons in their particular branch, which their labours will teach the farmers situated in the dry districts of the colony, are sure to be attended with incalculable profit to agriculture and the public at large. Several exhibits of improved battery processes, and of inventions for the more exhaustive extraction of gold from pyritic ores, bearing the names of Victorian patentees, will be certain to attract the notice of mining experts. Every year brings a fresh crop of new methods for treating refractory ores. The process which of late years appears to have been attended with the most satisfactory results is chlorination, the difficulties connected with which have only been recently overcome. This method is based on the fact that chlorine gas transforms metallic gold into sesqui-chloride of gold, soluble in water, whilst it is without influence on most metallic oxides. Plattner first adopted chlorination in 1850 for the extraction of gold from old tailings in Upper Silesia. But that invention, as originally planned, has undergone numerous modifications, and it is now claimed for the last application of the system, patented by two Australian experts, that the cost of treatment has been reduced from 30s. to 12s. per ton, and the loss of gold greatly minimised. Thus a slow, uncertain, costly, and cumbersome process would appear to be converted into a rapid, economic, and effective one. Concentrators and jiggers, safety cages, crushing machines, mine ventilators, fuel economisers, improved boilers, and explosives are included among mining appliances, in which novel features are introduced. Several firms established in Melbourne exhibit electricity as applied to lighting purposes; and when it is remembered that the system was only in a crude state and but little used ten years ago, its extension in all civilised countries must be considered rapid beyond anticipation. Illumination by electricity cannot yet successfully compete with gas in point of cheapness, but for use in public buildings and dwellings its superior sanitary properties, and freedom from injurious effects to articles of furniture, are becoming speedily recognised; and the number of electric-light installations in 1887 considerably exceeded those of previous years all 46 Collins Street East.

Several new primary batteries have been introduced, and carbons for arc lamps have been rendered much more durable than previously by the Liepmann process of manufacture, with the result of reducing the cost both in arc and incandescent lighting. One of the lighting systems takes a new departure, professing to solve the problem of distri- ; buting an electric current by “transformers” in such a way as to render possible the lighting : of towns from a central station. Using accumulators as a means of distribution, charging | conductors in series, and discharging them in parallel, and still allowing a 10-per cent, loss, i the cost of the secondary batteries and charging conductors is reduced by the new system to , £68 17s. 9d. This is an enormous reduction upon the cost of previous systems compassing the same end, and if the alleged advantages of the new system can be substantiated it cannot )' long escape public attention in Australia. Another form of electric action is propulsion, which, within the last few years, has been carried beyond the experimental stage. A great stride forward in this branch of electric ; enterprise was the system of accumulators, which last nine hours at a stretch. Locomotives, based on the latter principle, are doing work daily in a satisfactory manner on the section of the London Metropolitan Tramways between Stratford Church and Manor Park, the length of which is five miles out and five miles in, which occupies twenty minutes each way, with five minutes allowed for stopping and turning. These locomotives keep perfect time, and have encountered no hitch. The same system is also in operation in propelling a steel yacht of 60-horse power, in England, and the extent of the stupendous revolution which this subtle force is destined to work in our social system no man can foresee. The progress of machinery applicable to various processes of manufacture is shown by interesting illustrations, all pointing at once to the gradual invasion of the province of manual work, and the cheapening of the articles manufactured to the consumer. We are furnished with ocular demonstration that even in the simple matter of dress shirts and collars, hand labour seems to be almost entirely superseded. The cloth is cut and sewn, the button-holes are made, the garments are washed, dried, starched, ironed, polished, and finished by machines adapted for these respective purposes. 13 William Street, Melbourne PFAFF, PINSCHOF & CO.

The Steamers owned by this firm comprise the “ Eling-amite,” “ Burrumbeet,” “Wendouree,” “Lindus,” and “Nemesis,” trading- between Melbourne, Sydney, and Newcastle; the “Courier,” “ Excelsior,” “Alert,” and “Despatch,” trading-between Melbourne, Portarlington, and Geelong- ; also the powerful sluiee-keel Screw Tug Boats, “Eagle” and “Falcon,” the only boats of this class in the Southern Hemisphere. The “Elingamite” and “Burrumbeet” are the largest Passenger Steamships employed on the Australian Coast. They are fitted with the most modern machinery, thereby reducing vibration to the utmost, and are amongst the fastest Boats in the Trade. All the newest improvements have been introduced in their construction, including Social Halls-, Ladies’ Retiring- Rooms, Smoking Rooms, and Spacious Saloons extending the full width of the ships. The Forecabins are on the Main Deck, and are exceedingly lofty, well fitted, and ventilated. The Electric Light is installed throughout these ships, and they are the only vessels owned in Australia that are placed on the Admiralty List for Transports, having been specially built to ensure the safety of Passen¬ gers, and to meet the requirements of the Admiralty. They have spacious Promenade Decks, and by their great size, easy motion, and diminished vibration, the liability of passengers to sea-sickness is reduced to a minimum. The “ Eling’amite ” is also fitted as an Armed Cruiser. The Steamships “Courier,” “Excelsior,” “Alert,” and “Despatch,” were all built specially for trading between Melbourne, Portarlington, and Geelong. The “Courier,” the latest addition to this Fleet, is a vessel unique of her class. She is one of the fastest Passenger Vessels afloat, her Triple Expansion Engines indicating 3000 horse-power, and propelling- her with ease at the rate of 20 miles an hour. This magnificent vessel has luxurious accommodation for Passengers ; her spacious Promenade Deck is protected with a permanent awning, impervious alike to sun and rain ; her splendid Drawing .Saloon has large side-windows, and is so fitted as to combine the comforts of a Boudoir Railway Car with the ease of an. Ocean Steamship. The Dining- Saloon is fitted to seat 120 passengers, and strict attention is paid to the Providoring Department, where the best viands are dispensed at most moderate prices. Her Forecabin is well ventilated, and fitted for passengers of both sexes. The “ Courier ” is as remarkable for her easy sea-going- qualities as for her great speed. This boat leaves Queen’s Wharf Daily at 10 a.m. during the Summer Months. Well-known Manufacturers. BEST QUALITIES OF SOAP. GILHAM & CO. (Established 1855).

WROUGHT-IRON PIPES are 50 per cent. cheaper v more durable, and stronger than Cast-iron Pipes. Being only one- quarter the weight, the cost of carriage, handling, and labour is very considerably reduced. A further saving is effected in lead and J'arn, for Wrought-iron Pipes are three times as long as Cast-iron, therefore having only one-third the number of joints to make. The preparation with which they are coated effectually preserves the Pipes from rust ; and neither breakages or bursts ever occur. The Melbourne Water Supply Department has accepted this firm’s tender for nearly 7000 ton-! of Wrought-iron Pipes from 9 inches to 53 inches in diameter. Contracts have also been successfully carried out for various Water Trusts throughout the Colony. For IRRIGATION, Wrought-iron Pipes are in great demand. The Manufacturer has several miles of piping to complete for Messrs. Chaffey Bros. These pipes are being extensively used or MINING purposes and likewise for GAS. 1323 Harry, J., Knape-st., American Gully.

BEST YORKSHIRE IRON. CAST STEEL. STEEL FORGINGS. 70 MELBOURNE CENTENNIAL INTRNATIONAL EXHIBITION. The Monk Bridge Iron and Steel Co. Limited, Leeds, Yorkshire. Telegraphic Address: “Airedale, London.” Chairman: Sir JAMES KITSON, Bart. Directors: Mr. E. A. JEFFREYS, Mr. F. J. KITSON. THE MONK BRIDGE IRON WORKS were founded in 1851, and shortly after their erection passed into the possession of the late James Kitson, Esq., who was the founder of the eminent Firm of Locomotive Engine Builders, Messrs. Kitson & Co., Airedale Foundry, half a century ago. These works were directed by Mr. Kitson, in partnership with his Sons, for many years. After the decease of Mr. F. W. Kitson, the Engineer, and also of Mr. Kitson, his Father, the management devolved upon Sir James Kitson, by whom, as Chairman, with Mr. E. A. Jeffreys and Mr. F. J. Kitson, as members of the Board of Directors, the business is still actively carried on. The development of the operations of the Firm, and its extension of plant for the production of Steel, led to the reconstruction of the Firm, and its formation into a Limited Company, which was registered on the 1st January, 1886, as THE MONK BRIDGE IRON AND STEEL CO. LIMITED. The constitution of the Company is based on conditions which ensure the initiative, and the responsibility of personal management by the former heads of the old concern, and there has been no change in the technical direction, the heads of departments employed by the old Firm being continued in their positions with the reconstituted Company. The Company manufacture the following articles:— Best Yorkshire Iron. Boiler Plates. Axles, Crank and Straight, for Locomotives, Carriages, and Waggons. Solid Rolled Angle-iron Rings for Locomotive Boilers. Angle and Tee Iron. Bar Iron, Round, Square, and Flat. Rivet Iron. Special Iron for Fire-box Stays. Double-worked Chain Iron, for Engine, Carriage, and Waggon Couplings. Piston Rods, Slide Bars, Outside Cranks, Forgings of all descriptions. Engine Frame Plates. Cast Steel. The manufacture of SPECIAL CAST STEEL has now become the most important branch of industry carried on at these works, and is constantly receiving extensive developments. The best descriptions of Steel for Engine purposes are produced by different processes which are found most suitable for the manufacture of the highest qualities for these uses. It has not been found advantageous for these purposes to establish the Bessemer process at these Works. The Company can now manufacture in Steel all the articles which they have been accustomed to supply in Wrought lion, the greater portion of their production of Steel being specially required in the form of— Boiler Plates. ,, FLANGED FOR LOCOMOTIVE AND MARINE ENGINES. Angles, Tees, Bars, round, square, or flat. Frame Plates. Tyres for Engines, Carriages, and Waggons. Crank Axles for Engines, with round, oval, or flat webs. Straight Axles for Engines, Carriages, and Waggons. Steel Forgings. Marine Engine Screw and Cranked Shafts. Forgings of all descriptions. One of the latest developments of the manufacture of the Company is the production of Cast Steel Wheel Centres, and Steel Castings of large dimensions. Cast Steel Wheel Centres. Locomotive Tender, Carriage, or Waggon up to 8 feet diameter. Steel Castings or Forgings. Piston Rods, Crossiieads, Slide Bars, Horn-blocks. Expansion Stays, and Steel Castings of all descriptions. On the opposite side are sketches showing a few of the Types of Manufactures of this Company. CAST-STEEL WHEEL CENTRES. STEEL CASTINCS OR FORCINCS. BEST YORKSHIRE IRON. CAST STEEL. STEEL FORGINGS.

This system is noted for being, not only the most economical, but also the most successful in ..the world, and the number of companies at present using it testify to its pre-eminent merits. It installed its first plant in 1883, and on the 1st January, 1888, it had in full working order 343 ■Central Stations, aggregating 42,9U7 Arc Lamps, and 110 Stations using its Incandescent System, with 67,500 lamps ; this is exclusive of private plants. The fact of the British Government adopting it for lighting Woolwich Arsenal, and the Great Northern Railway at their London stations, proves that its merits are appreciated in ..England; while the number of other systems it has superseded in America bear testimony to its universal success there. It has never yet been -supplanted by any other system. The Dynamos are perfectly automatic in regula¬ tion, allowing the extinguishing and re-lighting of any number of lamps without attention, while its many systems and combinations of Arc and In¬ candescent lighting facilitate its successful adop¬ tion where no other system would be practical. It is without a rival in the lighting of mines and tunnels. The varied uses to which Electric Motors can be adopted are practically unlimited, as power can be transmitted so easily to great distances ; while the small space occupied by the Motor and its freedom from noise allow of its use in small spaces and buildings where steam power would be impractical and gas engines objectionable. They are manufactured by this Company in sizes varying from 4 to 75 horse power. The Australian agents of this Company are W. H. Masters and Co., 104 Elizabeth-street, Melbourne, who are prepared to give estimates for electric lighting and transmission of power, or undertake the formation of companies for light¬ ing or tramway purposes. The Exhibit of the Western Electric Co. includes Telephones, switchboards, as used in all the Telephone Exchanges in the world; Police Telephone and Signal System, as used in the principal cities of America; Electric Bells, Hotel Annunciators, Fire Alarms, Burglar Alarms, Electric Gas Lighters, and Electric Measuring Instruments, etc. The agents for the above Company are W.

The Austro-Hungarian dominions have an area of 240,942 English square miles, with an. estimated population, at the close of 1886, of 39,640,834. This is exclusive of the Turkish provinces of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which have been under Austro-Hungarian administra¬ tion since 1878, although not as yet incorporated with the Empire. The inhabitants of the fourteen provinces of Austria proper were understood to have numbered, at the date specified, 23,070,688, and those of the kingdom of Hungary, with Transylvania, Croatia and Slavonia, and the town of Fiume, 16,570,146. If the population of Bosnia, Herzegovina, and Noor- Bazar be added, the totalis increased by 1,504,091, 84 per cent, of the adults being farmers and peasants. According to the census taken at the close of 1880, the population was 37,883,226, and at the census preceding the numbers were 35,884,389. The rate of increase for Austria in eleven years cannot be considered great at 3 per cent., while for Hungary it is only 1-24 per cent. The surplus of births over deaths fluctuates considerably. Nevertheless, it does not show any decided decline, as in the case of another of the great countries of Europe. Agriculture 1 and Stock. —The total productive area of Austria proper was 70,726,000 acres in 1885. Of this total, 26,000,000 acres were arable; 7,500,000 were meadow land;. 930,000 were devoted to gardens; 6,600,000 acres to pasture lands; 620,000 acres to vineyards; 4,500,000 acres being Alp pasture; woods and forests covering 24,000,000 acres. The products of the soil cultivated in the largest quantities are rye and spelt, oats, potatoes, wheat, barley, maize, and pulse. As regards wine, the vineyards in 1885 yielded 83,018,700 gallons. The total value of wine in 1886 was 40,691,000 florins. The latter item, with barley, are the articles most largely exported, though in some years the export of wheat is considerable. Of the total amount of land available for cultivation in 1883, 52,800,000 acres were occupied with agriculture, including grass, meadows, and pasture; 1,062,500 being devoted to vineyards, and the remainder to woods and forests. . Minerals, Metals, and General Industries. —The total number of persons engaged in mining and iron work in 1885 was 47,851, and in salt works 1972. In that year the values of leading minerals and furnace products yielded were as follows:—Common salt, 21,628,218 fl.; common coal, 22,652,500 fl.; pig iron, 20,548,400 3.; brown coal, 19,253,080 3.; lead and litharge, 7,735,046 3.; silver ore, 3,193,200 3.; iron, 2,174,140 fl.; lead, 943,705 fl.; quicksilver, 851,009 3.; and graphite, 579,430 fl. An official estimate, issued in 1884, of Austrian manufacturing industries in 1880 gave the value at £100,000,000 sterling. The total value of mining products in Hungary, raw and worked, in 1885 was 22,668,726 fl. At the last census, 2,275,117 of the population of Austria were returned as farming their own lands, 90,036 as tenant farmers, and 3,739,421 as farm labourers. Thus 6,000,000 people were directly engaged in agriculture with their families, forming nearly 60 per cent, of the population of Austria. At the same period there were 1305 mining proprietors and 116,565 workers ; 575,811 manufacturing proprietors and 1,541,287 workers; and 185,405 traders, with 124,688 assistants. In Hungary there were 1,451,707 farm proprietors, 23,393 tenant farmers, and 1,373,768 farm labourers, or over 2,720,000 people directly engaged in agriculture; 173 mining proprietors and 25,732 miners; 380,786 engaged in manufactures, with 385,630 workers; 97,300 engaged in trade, with 79,995 assistants. Exports, Imports, and Shipping.-— The exports for 1886 were larger than in the two preceding years, being 698,632,273 fl. But the most recent import value in our possession is that of 1885, which amounted to 557,948,324 fl., these being the lowest figures for five years. The articles most extensively exported by the dual-monarchy are grain, pulse and flour, timber, sugar, instruments, watches, &c., wool and woollens, living animals, animal products, beverages (including wine), the latter in one year being exported to the value of 17,663,655 fl., and beer amounting to 5,526,000 fl.; there were also fruit, nuts and hops, leather and leather goods, glass and glassware, fuel, flax, hemp and other fibres, wood and bone ware, cotton and cotton goods, minerals, iron and iron goods, and tobacco. The imports consist of goods principally belonging to the same category, but of a different quality, for the most part, compared with those exported. The largest amount of trade, both in exports and imports, done by Austro-Hungary was with Germany. After that country comes Italy, Switzerland, Boumania, and Russia. Transactions with England are insignificant, and chiefly comprise grain, flour, and barley. The principal imports of British produce into Austria are cotton manufactures (including yarn), iron, machinery, oil-seed, coals, and woollen goods. This Catalogue is printed with INTRODUCTION TO THE AUSTRO-HUNGARIAN COURT. 103 Revenue and Expenditure.— The monetary arrangements of the monarchy are of a somewhat complicated nature. There are three distinct budgets:—(1) That of the Delegations, for the whole monarchy; (2) that of the Reichsrath, for Austria; and (3) that of the Hungarian Diet, for the kingdom of Hungary. Austria is liable for 68-6 per cent, and Hungary for 31-4 per cent, towards the “ common expenditure of the monarchy,” irrespective of the interest on the national debt. The expenditure for the united monarchy in 1887, as might be expected in the present uneasy condition of Europe, shows a tendency to increase, having risen in that year to 123,855,414 fl., against 116,078.000 fl. in 1883; and the estimates for 1888 represent a probable expenditure of 134,480,397 fl. The second budget, that for Austria proper, exhibits in five out of the ten years, 1877-87, heavy annual deficits. The revenue for 1886-7 was 507,833,841 fl., and the expenditure 516,625,771 fl. during the ten years referred to. The third budget, that of Hungary, is conspicuous for annual deficits throughout of a serious character, without a single exception; the Hungarian revenue for 1886-7 being 321,743,950 fl., and the expenditure 325,945,490 fl. In the Hungarian estimates for 1888 there appears an anticipated deficit of 18,395,121 fl. The total debt of the country, with Government paper added, on 1st January, 1887, was £178,073,511 3s. 8d. Subsequently to May, 1868, all loans have been contracted separately by Austria and Hungary. The deficits of Hungary began twenty years ago. The large special debt which has been created for the latter during that period has been principally employed in the purchase and construction of railways, the receipts of which, however, are far exceeded by the expenditure. In the beginning of 1886 the separate debt of Hungary amounted to £111,031,698, besides the share of that kingdom in the common debt of the monarchy, and arrears, &c., being in all 248,000,000 fl. The proportion of the debt to the total revenue is 37 per cent. 9 A 9 (D 0 X ID ft tn o v 9 A A 3 9 9 9 V# a 3 A > w td H 9 A X 9 nr Sole Agents for Colonies: Pfaff, Pinschof & Co., Melbourne.
