From Dr. Hayes. Land of Desolation, ...,
1t would be impossible, with mere
words alone, to convey any adequate
idea OF the action of this newborn child
OF the Arctic frosts. Think of q solid
lump OF ice a third of mile deep, and
more than half a mile in lateral diame-
ter, hurled, like q mere toy, away into
the water, and set to rolling to and fro
by the impetus of the act as if it were
Natures merest football; now down
one side, until the huge bulk was nearly
capsized; then back again; then down
the other side once more with the same
unresisting force; and so on. up and
down, and down and up, smashing to
and fro for hours before it comes
finally to rest. Picture this, and you
will have an image of power not to be
seen by the action of any other force
upon the earth. The disturbance of
the water was inconceivably fine.
Waves OF enormous magnitude were
rolled up with great violence against
the glacier, covering it with spray /;
pillows came tearing down the ford,
their progress marked by the cracking
and crumbling ice, which was every
where in condition of widest agita-
ton for the space of several miles.
Over the smaller icebergs the water
broke completely, as if storm
were piling up the seas and
heaving them fercely against
the shore. Then to add still
further to the commotion thus occa.
stoned, the great, wallowing iceberg,
which was the cause of it all, was
dropping fragments from its sides with
each oscillation, the reports of the rup-
ture reaching the ear above the general
din and clamor. Other bergs were set
in motion by the waves; and these and
dropped pieces from their sides; and
at last, as if it were the grand finale of
the piece-the clash of cymbals, and
the big bass drum of Natures grand
orchestral monstrous berg near the
middle OF the ford split in two; and,
above the sound of breaking waters and
falling ice, this last disruption filled
the air with a peal that rang among
the bergs and cregs, and, echoing from
hill to hill. died away only in the void
beyond the mountain tops; while, to
the noisy tune, the icebergs of the ford
danced their wild, ungainly dance upon
the waters. 1t was many hours before
this state of wild unrest was succeeded
by the calm which had preceded the
commencement of it; and when, at
length, the iceberg that had been born
came quietly to rest, and the other
icebergs had ceased their dance upon
the troubled sea, and the waves had
ceased their flashing, it seemed to me
that, in beholding this birth of an ice
berg, had beheld one of the most
sublime exhibitions of the great forces
of Nature. 1t was, in truth, con-
| yulsion.

TORTURE in THE EAST.

How the Boy of Tunis Furnishes Dis.
honest Revenue CollectOrs-A Terrible
Scene on the Site of Ancient Car.
tha2e. ~
Theodorus of Abyssinia has been
considered the most cruel and blood.
thirsty ruler of modern times, but he
has rival sovereign who lives nearer
the confines of civilization, and whose
atrocious conduct should arouse the
indignation of. human people through
out the world. That sovereign is the
present Dey of Tunis, whose whole
career since he became ruler of his
country has been marked by arbitrary
oppression and cruelties. A few of the
aged sheiks of his country, who had
known his character before he succeed
ed his father-a mild and amiable
prince-urged his mother to let her
younger son ascend the throne of
Tunis. The heir apparent heard of
this, and with the help of few of his
boon companions he seized the reins
of Government.
No sooner was he in power than he
vented his spite upon the above.men-
toned men. Not only were nine of
his victims bastinadoed in the most
merciless manner, but the eyes and
tongues of them were torn out, and
they were thrown in this terrible and
utterly helpless condition, in the mid
die OF July, into desert spot, where
they persisted miserably, prey to the
pitiless rays of scorchlng African sun,
and to the equally pitiless beaks Of
vultures and buzzards. From that
time the reign of the Bey of Tunis has
been marked by deeds of cruelty, which,
if they have not become generally
known, because perpetrated upon
persons of humber conditions in life
than the iliustrious victims mentioned
above, have been none the less heinous.
The Bey of Tunis is the Supreme
Judge in his country. He tries GRIM
inals, and orders their immediate ex-
ecution after hearing the case or he
annuls the DEGREES of the Kadis il they
do not suit him, and Furnishes the
unfortunate prisoners according to his
pleasure.
On the 9Th of November last the Bey
was in more towering passion than
ever before. He is an extravagant liver,
and spends more money than the taxes
OF Tunis yield to him. During the Sec
ond empire lie negotiated heavy loan
in France, and some greedy Italian
bankers have likewise advanced him
large sums at exhorbitant interest.
Being afraid Of France, the Bey Of Tunis
pays his creditors for that country
punctuaIly, but has little respect for
