J. Ross recorded that in 1831 the population of Hobart Tmm was ab out six thousand, and that there were seven hundred and ighty-five houses , six corn mills, four breweries, two timber mills, a soap manufactory, about ight tanneries , a hat factory, a parchment making business and a ship buildi.ng yard ,1 In On the outskirts were many handsome villas enclosed by well kept gardens and orchar-ds. William Russ Pugh , who later became a well-known Launceston doctor , exclaimed on his arrival in Hobart Town: A strnger cannot feel otherwise than astonished when he observes the number of dwelling houses and thinks that it is little more than thirty years si'nce the spot on which he stands was known only to the savage. The fruit trees are perfect pictures. I never saw apples· in such numbers on one tree as I have seen since I arrived here.2 Arthur , reportng to the Secretary of State for the Colonies, Edward G. Stanley, a few months earlier , on May 14, 1834, confirmed P.ugh 1 s opinion: A taste for expensive houses and rich furniture is very prevalent and is daily gaining ground , and but for the alternation of costly nouses of recent construction with such of the primeval huts as are still permitted to stand as memorials of the infancy of the colony - I do not knQW that there is anything in the appearance of Hobart Town or in the manner of living of the inhabitants that would suggest to the mind of the newly arrived emigrant that where Hobart 'riow stands there was thirty years since noṫhing but a · wilderness . 3 On August 18, 1833, Arthur estimated the total population of Van Diemen 's Land as approximately 26,694, of whom about 10,000 lived in Hobart nd 4,446 in Launces ton . 4 He judged the increase of population in the towns at this time to be due to the existing r.egulations which made 1 2 3 J.
