The Queensland Government has been written to respecting the terms and extent of selection of land, and a Sly is / shortly expected. The idea is to e some European as carpenter and feneial man, and. to obtain a native of few Guinea in Queensland who would act as interpreter. One of the chief articles of export is expected, to be sandal-wood ; and a good deal of the information they have at present has been derived from Oaptain Moresby’s * Discoveries in New Hebrides and New Guinea.’ The party propose to leave Victoria about: the end of August or the beginning of September, to make the necessary purchases in Sydney, and then to go on to Brisbane and Cooktown, from which latter place they will start for Port Moresby, in New Guinea.
