Van Dieman's Land Castles For ten voyages to Hobart and Sydney
The Castle Forbes arrived in the Thames from Leith after a long voyage of about eighteen months. Letters from Hobart town and Sydney report good health and prosperity among settlers with sufficient capital, though markets in the colony are poor and prices in Britain low.

Also a correction denies reports of a clerical departure and confirms plans for a consecration in Cashel.
