JAMES SMITH, of Wcstwood, River Forth, Tasmania, was h. at Georgetown, Tasmania, 1st July, 1827, in the neighbourhood of which town his father was a proprietor of a small fai'm. At an early age, Mr. James Smith was engaged in the milling business, but in 1861, resigned his situation with the intention of leaving the colony. Just at this time the discovery of gold in Victoria attracted attention, and Mr. Smith went to Mount Alexander, where he worked for some time as a miner. In 18.53 he returned to Tasmania and settled as a pioneer farmer at the River Forth on the north-west coast, but in 1859 he became an ardent searcher for minerals. Accompanied by two others he discovered gold in the Rivers Wilmot and Forth in the latter year, and he discovered silver bearing copper, and silver lead on the beach at the Penguin in 1861, and continued liis search for minerals, till he discovered at Mount Bisclioff on the 4th December, 1871, the enormus tin deposit since become so famous. Mr. Smith was induced to allow himself to be elected a member of the Legislative Council on the IStli July, 1886, but he retired from the Legislature at the end of the term for which he was elected. He has long been more generally known as Philosopher Smith. Residence — Westwood, River Forth, Tasmania.
