<hw>Jimmy Low</hw>, <i>n</i>. one of the many names of a
Timber-tree, <i>Eucalyptus resinifera</i>, Smith,
<i>N.O. Myrtaceae</i>.

1889. J. H. Maiden, `Useful Native Plants,' p. 208:

"The `Red,' or `Forest Mahogany,' of the neighbourhood of
Sydney. These are bad names, as the wood bears no real
resemblance to the true mahogany. Because the product of this
tree first brought Australian kino into medical notice, it is
often in old books called `Botany Bay Gum-tree.' Other names
for it are Red gum, Grey gum, Hickory, and it perpetuates the
memory of an individual by being called `Jimmy Low.'"

<hw>Jingle</hw>, <i>n</i>. a two-wheeled vehicle, like an Irish
car, once common in Melbourne, still used in Brisbane and some
other towns: so called from the rattle made by it when in
motion. The word is not Australian, as is generally supposed;
the `Century' gives "a covered two-wheeled car used in the
south of Ireland."

1862. Clara Aspinall, `Three Years in Melbourne,' p. 122:

"An omnibus may be chartered at much less cost (gentlemen who
have lived in India <i>will</i> persist in calling this vehicle
a <i>jingle</i>, which perhaps sounds better); it is a kind of
dos-a-dos conveyance, holding three in front and three behind:
it has a waterproof top to it supported by four iron rods, and
oilskin curtains to draw all round as a protection from the
rain and dust."

1863. B. A. Heywood, `Vacation Tour at the Antipodes,'
p. 44:

"During my stay in Melbourne I took a jingle, or car, and drove
to St. Kilda."

1865. Lady Barker, writing from Melbourne, `Station Life in
New Zealand,' p. 12:

"A vehicle which was quite new to me--a sort of light car with a
canopy and curtains, holding four, two on each seat, dos-a-dos,
and called a jingle--of American parentage, I fancy. One drive
in this carriage was quite enough, however."

1869. Marcus Clarke, `Peripatetic Philosopher,' p. 14:

"Some folks prefer to travel
Over stones and rocks and gravel;
And smile at dust and jolting fit to dislocate each bone.
To see 'em driving in a jingle,
It would make your senses tingle,
For you couldn't put a sixpence 'twixt the wheel and the
kerb-stone."

1887. Cassell's 'Picturesque Australasia,' vol. i. p. 64:

"In former days the Melbourne cab was a kind of Irish car,
popularly known as a jingle. . . . The jingle has been ousted
by the one-horse waggonette."
