not the cunning of a stockman's hand."

1894. `Melbourne Museum Catalogue--Economic Woods':

"No. 133, Coast tea-tree, <i>Leptospermum laevigatum</i>,
F. v. M. No. 142, Swamp tea-tree, <i>Melaleuca ericifolia</i>,
Smith."

<hw>Teetee</hw>. Same as <i>Ti-Ti</i> (q.v.).

<hw>Telopea</hw>, <i>n</i>. scientific name of the genus
containing the flower called the <i>Waratah</i> (q.v.),
from the Greek <i>taelowpos</i>, `seen from afar,' in allusion
(as the author of the name, Robert Brown, himself says) to
the conspicuous crimson flowers. The name has been corrupted
popularly into <i>Tulip</i>, and the flower is often called
the <i>Native Tulip</i>.

1835. Ross, `Hobart Town Almanack,' p. 110:

"The beautiful crimson flowering shrub, with dark green
rhododendron-like leaves, which grows in the upper region
of Mount Wellington. . . . The generic name is derived from
<i>telopos</i>, seen at a distance. It has been corrupted
into tulip tree, to which it bears not the least resemblance."

<hw>Tena koe</hw>, a Maori salutation used in North Island of
New Zealand. Lit. "That is you," and meaning "How do you do?"

<i>Tena</i> and <i>Tera</i> both mean `<i>that</i>'; but
<i>tena</i> implies the idea of nearness, `that near you,'
<i>tera</i> the idea of distance, `that (or there) away
yonder.' Hence, while Tena koe is a welcome, Tera koe
would be an insult.

<hw>Tench</hw>, <i>n</i>. slang term, used during the days of
transportation, for the Hobart Town Penitentiary, or Prisoners'
Barracks--a corruption of "<i>'tentiary</i>," which is for
<i>Penitentiary</i>. It is now obsolete.

1859. Caroline Leakey, `The Broad Arrow,' vol. ii. p. 32:

"Prisoners' barracks, sir--us calls it Tench."

<hw>Teraglin</hw>, <i>n</i>. a fish of New South Wales,
<i>Otolithus atelodus</i>, Gunth. The name <i>Teraglin</i>
is stated to be aboriginal. Sometimes called <i>Jew-fish</i>
(q.v.).

<hw>Thickhead</hw>, <i>n</i>. the name applied to the
Australian birds of the genus <i>Pachycephala</i> (q.v.).
