that the whaling business in the Nortn racine
is falling off rapidly. The Polnesian gives sta'
tistics in relation to the arrivals of whaling yes
sells at the Hawaiian Islands from 1852 to le6o
inclusive. We give the statistics of 1852 and
1860, to show at glance the immense decrease
in the business. In 1s52-arrivals, 275; sea
sons catch-whales, 237,l24; bone, 5,357,7
In Is6O-arrivals, 1872; seasons cateh-sperm,

ling off is undoubtedly caused in great meas
