_South Esk_--a considerable river which rises in the eastern part of the
county of Dorset, and after a circuitous course, in which it passes the
towns of Fingal, Avoca, Evandale, Perth, and Longford, falls into the
Tamar at Launceston. About half a mile from the place where it joins the
Tamar, the river forms a considerable basin, surrounded by lofty hills,
and having a water-fall at the upper part. A few yards lower down, there
is another cataract--one of the most magnificent in the island--and the
river continues its course to the Tamar between two high and almost
perpendicular hills. Along one of these hills a wooden aqueduct is
carried, which conveys water to turn a mill and supply the town. The
river is crossed here by a ferry, which leads to the road down the
western side of the Tamar. The view up the Esk at this place is one of
the most picturesque in the colony.

from twelve to fourteen feet. On the banks of the river are some good
farms, and the scenery is generally picturesque.
