AMODERN CRUSOE.

An officer of the East India army on sick leave.
furnishes rather interesting account of a visit
to the "Cocoas,'' group of unfrequented islands
between seven and eight hundred miles south
ward and westward of Java Head. A Captain
Ross, formerly of the Indian army, is here
'monarch of all he surveys" being, with his
family sole occupants, saving some Malays in his
pay. Some particulars of his visit are thus sup
piled
"About the sixth day from Java Head, we
sighted the Islands which are very low, covered
to the waters edge with trees. There are about
twenty four of them, the largest less than mile
broad; they are in circle, reefs joining them
and forming a magnificent lagoon to which there
is only one entrance. went on shore carly in
the morning after we anchored and pulled about
three miles up the lagoon 10 the settlement
Their chief amusement appears to be sailing
boats; of which there are immense nun bers,
aud managed beautifully. l counted nearly thr
ty as pulled up, sailing away to the different
islands to pick up nuts.
captain Ross is strange, gaunt looking
man; he and his sons resemble Robinson Cru
soes. They live in wooden houses, raised about
ten feet, on piles from the ground, and are as
rough as you may imagine. They have books,
and the quantity Captain Ross reads is wonder
full He has been twenty six years on the islands
The alalays are n lazy set of fellows. He paws
them 81 much a day, and 50 we'll. that they went
work mare than two or three DAYS week. The
grentest punishment he inficts Is to Danish ,bosa
from the islands"
