occasionally, as Sir Leopold McClintock found
in 1860, great quantities of ice accumulate, on
the coasts of Greenland, afterwards to be dis
lodged and precipitated toward the mid.Atlan-
tic. In that year the accumulation of ice eX-
ceeded anything like it in the past t~hirty-six
winters. The unusual mildness of February, it
would seem, has been potential, even in these
high attitudes, in unloosing the glacial masses
aud l~aunching. them on the swift Polar cur
rents, which, sweeping through Davis Strait
and along the Labrador coasts, commingle with
or underrun the northern margin of the warm
Gulf Stream.
The early and apparently excessive precipi-
tation of these ice islands into the vapor-laden
region Of the warm Atlantic current may proba-
bly, afford a clew to the mystery of the terrible
gale Of the 9th Of February, in which so many
steamships were disabled. The Antarctic ice
bergs which penetrate the warm-water belt east
of Cape Horn are said to cause the violent hur-
ricanes of the high southern ATTITUDES. The in
fusion of immense ice masses, with their wide
spreading boreal influence, to the southeast Of
Newfoundland, would undoubtedly cause rapid
and excessive condensation Of vapor, and hence
a rapid fall of the barometer and the invariable
consequent cyclonic tempest. The same chill
ling agency would also explain the furious snow
storms which were reported by several of the
disabled vessels.
McClintock describes one of these frozen
monsters two hundred and fifty feet high,
which was aground in five hundred feet of
water in Baf1in's Bay, and ships, we know, have
passed hundreds of smaller ones on the trans
Atlantic voyage. To melt a single one of
them an incoDceivable amount of heat must be
drawn from the surrounding air and ocean and
4bair mnorotur he pOOGnOunnfIu rndnoo1
AS the Indications favor the movement of
unusually large numbers of these ice mountains
into the North Atlantic double skill and vigil
lance are demanded Of the steamship captains.
No doubt the equinoctial gales that have now
set in, and the early approach of spring, will
occasion great disIodgements of the glaciers on
the Arctic coasts, and render unwearied eau
ton on the Atlantic necessary, not only by
reason of collision with ice, but also by reason
of the tempestuous weather the ice serves to
breed.

ENGLAND AND HER COLONIES.
(From the West Indian.)

THAT the Colonies of England are a main
source other wealth and greatness, we take
it, is beyond dispute. But from Captain
Co1oMB's pamphlet, it would seem, it has
not been sufficiently recognised in the Co.
lonial policy of the late administration.
It is not our intention to discuss this ques-
ton. What we seek to show is, the va
lue of the connection between England and
her possessions in the West Indies, consi-
dered relatively with her connection with
India and other British Colonies. In the
first place the connection with the West
Indies dates from an earlier period, and the
names of many of the naval heroes of Eng
land, are associated with their history.
But what is of much more importance is
their geographical position. In early times
a voyage to the Plantations meant a
visit to the West Indies, even in the case of
vessels with settlers bound for the New
England States. The outward voyage was
made across the Bay Of Biscay to the Span
ish coast, and thence to Madeira and
Barbados, from which ports a fresh de-
parture was taken via Bermuda for the
New England States. Steam commune
cation has put an end to this round about
course, but in the meantime the
of England has extended beyond the Cape
of Good Hope and Cape Horn into the
great Southern Ocean, and the track of
the ships outward or homeward bound lies
Just outside of the chain of the Windward
and Leeward Islands. These islands have
become so many stepping stones, from
North America to South America, afford
ing convenient stations for the Telegraph
Wires, which stretch from Demerara to
the Havana, and from there to Washing
ton and New York. A Light House is be-
ing put up OF the East Coast Of Barbados
at the Joint expense of the Island Legisla-
ture and the Imperial Government, for the
benefit of vessels passing to Windward, as
we'll as those boundofor Carlisle Bay, or
any other West Indian port. The trade
between the West Indies and the. United
States and British North America is only
secondary to thatowith The Mother. Coun-
