[Lithographic views of Hobart, by Atkinson, printed by Melville, published by Wood & Deane].

We have Seen the first of a series of Lithographic views, now publishing by Messrs. Wood and Deane. It is drawn by Mr. Atkinson, and printed at Mr. Melville's press, and is, by for, the best specimen of Lithography we have yet seen in the colony, It represents a part of Campbell-street, opposite the ‘Union Tavern,’ presenting a view of the houses of Mr. Gellibrand, Mr. Lowe, Captain Wilson, &c. The drawing is executed with great fidelity, and in a bold, masterly style. We may now certainly affirm, that our Lithographic press is in excellent working order.
