Details: Reminiscences of Christopher Hodgson......On the 1st of October, 1844, a party of ten men under the direction of Dr. Leichhardt left Jimbour, the last inhabited station of the Darling Downs district, for the purpose of exploring a route to connect that part of Australia with the most S. W. point called Port Essington. The party consisted of Dr. Ludwig Leichhardt, leader and naturalist; Mr. Roper, Mr. Calvert, Mr. Gilbert, an ornithologist connected with Mr. Gould; Master J. Murphy, Philips, Caleb, an American Black; Charlie a Bathurst native; Midge Brown a Newcastle ditto, and myself. After a series of losses, delays and difficulties the scantiness of our supply and the want of animal food necessitated the Doctor to reduce the number of his party; as all of course were still anxious to proceed, there was a difficulty in fixing upon any individually; in the end however it was resolved by mutual consent that I should return accompanied by the American blackfellow Caleb. After an absence of five weeks I reached Jimbour on the 5th of November having performed in two days a distance which with the expedition we had made five weeks of. I left the party all well. They were in excellent spirits and during all their trials had behaved with exemplary patience and perseverance.

Details: SIR, It may be interesting to some of your readers to learn, that the woman who escaped from the wreck of the Trial brig on this coast, to-the Northward of Port Macquarie, is still, or very recently in being, sojourning with a tribe of Aboriginal natives, together with her daughter now about 12 or 13 years old. She was married (possessed) by one of the tribe, by whom she has had two children, one of either sex, the male child according to * custom, was put to death, the female lives, she acts as "corrar-gee," or midwife, 'to the matrons of the tribe, and is respected by them accordingly; they are however so jealous lest she should see a white man, and be thereby induced to leave them, that they have madi boori (or kill'd) three white men, supposed to be in search of her. Her daughter, (the one wrecked with her,) adds my informant, will be " wienna"(or marriageable) next spring. The native from whom I received the above account, belongs to a tribe that " sit down" near Liverpool Plains, says he had seen the white woman often with her daughter and younger "picaninna;" is very circumstantial in his story, and adds, that he has a brother married in the same tribe, and would shew white people to them, provided they would not shoot his brother. Yours, &c. A Bushranger
