N otwithstanding the number of works which have been written on New South Wales, it has appeared to me that none of them has given that kind of information which is most useful to the intending emi grant, and most interesting to those at home, who have relatives unfortunate enough to live in the lone and far bush, - such a distinct account of the actual experiences of a settler, as would enable the stranger arriving in the colony to form a due estimate of what he has to bear, and what he ought to avoid.
