BUSH-LIFE IN AUSTRALIA.

The life of the shepherds at the out-sta- tions in the solitary Bush is a very dismal one. Two men are stationed at each, far removed from neighbors and friends; and

when there they must make the best of it. They are well paid-— at the rate of about forty pounds a year, with i-ations—snd their rations are abundant. But the life is a and one nevertheless, and men only take to it in Australia when every other employment fails. There is an impression among them that sheep-herding is the lowest sort of la- hor—as indeed it is. It has no pastoral de- lights for them, spite of what the poets have sung. Feeding sheep, and seeing nothing but sheep, they become slieepisli, if they do not become worse. ne 0 the two men watches the shoe , the other keeps the hut, cooks the food, chills the folds, and watches the sheep at night in company with the coo- ie 0 s.

The but life of the shepherds is very mis- erable und very comfortlees. They too of- ten become dirty and alovenly in their hit- bits, and, secluded from the society of wo- men, hecome almost savage in their vices- nny thing but entle shep erds. This class is constantly c anging about! no wonder! they cannot regard their but as their home ; and so they move about for novelty, trying to better themselves by shifting to new situations, or returning to their old ones.

The life of the stockman—-he who has charge of the cattle upon a station—is of a superior kind. It requires more energy,

skill and labor ; and there is an excitement and bustle about it which is very attractive to spirited and energetic fellows. The stockman is a real Australian. e rs - sents the genuine character of the country. He must be educated specially for his era , and he must be " up to his work.” Tb cattle which he has to manage are of s for more formidable kind than the passive sheep. under the care of the shepherd and hutman.

The horned cattle of Australia are power- ful animals, and their wild habits render them very difiicult to govern. They graze quite unconfined throughout the year, and thus acquire an agility in leaping a run- ning which renders it sometimes a matter of

difficulty for the fleetost horse to overtake and " turn" them, and the horses of Austra- lia, are of this breed and mettle. Horses have, indeed, become a principle article of export to India, where they are much prised. Every station has a good stock of

orsea attached to it; and from constant

raclice the Australians become first rate

orseiiien. Everything is done on horse- backin Australia ; every man you meet is on horseback. Nobody thinks of walking in the Bush, except it be to catch a rse. Thus as many as a dosen saddle horses are kept at some stations, merely for the adi- nsry work of the place ; and every stock- man who looks after the cattle ex ‘ s two or three horses to be appropriate entirely to his use.

The otockraen’s duty is to drive out the cattle, to see that they do not stray, and if they aleira ,"thoa to hunt then spend bring theta eh to- head-quarters. Bul- lock-driving in the Bush is a work yet]

run, till he manages to turn the brute, when svva he goes after it again, never leavi

it til be has headed it home to the be . Hence, the ' best recommendation of an Australian horse is, that " be can turn upon a cabbage leaf”

The best exemplificstion of this hculty of sudden w_ltceling in the ass of driv g is in the art of " cuttin ou " ‘a single bul- lock from aberd. At starting, the bul- lock trusts wholly to his speed, but finding, afler a trial of two or three hundred yards, that his retreat to the herd is still interrupt- ed, he doubles short round in the rear of ‘his pursues-, who, were he to continue his on- ward career, would thereby lose a I rest deal of ground ; but such is the agility of the stoclt-horse, that be simultaneously wheels round, and still kec s on the inside, without losing an inch. his sort of thing is repeated again and again, till the bullied animal--by this time exhausted with rage and well scored with the whip-is fails to single out, and take any course that his tor- mcntor may direct. '

The muster is also a very exciting scene. This usually takes place once a year, for tbe purpose of ascertaining that all the cat- tle are there, and of branding those which require brandin with the owner's stark. Notice is sent round to all the neighbors, who help each other on such occasions, and perhaps the nearest neighbor lives twenty in’ s of. so assemble at the station the night before with their horses and dogs.
