A miscellaneous Victorian era column notes varied items from pennies coined yearly to the number of Justices of the Peace gazetted. It mentions daily life details, advertisements, and whimsical society items across Australia and beyond.
A well known Peak Hill resident, famed for enjoying red wine, received a Christmas Box invitation from a Sydney friend. The reply humorously rejects cards and neckties, asking only for something nice and wet. The page also shares a string of light anecdotes, political commentary, and rural observations from New South Wales including land tenure, taxation ideas, and a grazing joke about rabbits.
