THE WHALE.-The whale. having no
air blubber, can sink TO the lowest depts of
the ocean, and, installing the harpoon for
the tooth of a sword fish or shark, he in
stantly descends, this being the manner Of
freeing himself from these enemies, who can
not bear the pressure of deep ocean; and
from ascending and descending in small
space, he puts himself in the power of wha.
Ter; whereas, if he knew his force, and
were to swim ON the surface in straight
