masses of glacial drift-ice are reported
to have been seen off the northern
shores of the island slowly, but surely,
drifting southwark across the track Of
vessels plying between Europe and
America. The first berg sighted off
st. John was estimated to be not less
than quarter of mile in length and
three hundred feet in height above

water for every one above, the total
height Of this huge mass must have
been nine hundred feet. Its form was
that OF vast plateau rising not more
than few feet from the surface OF the

feet from the southern side, with high
range of ice peaks suddenly rising out
OF the plain. The rate at which this

at two and three-fourth miles per hour.
Commanders OF vessels crossing the

Tho B0ar,s Head.

It was in the olden time when Baron
Rowdedow held possession OF all the
German provinces that a grand Christmas
dinner was prepared for all his retain
ers, and the great event Of the day was
to be the bringing in of the boar's head,
which dainty dish was to grace the
center Of the table. But it so happened
that the chief cook fell ill, and his place
was filed by young Milesian, and he
1t was that stood by the chief door when
baron Rowdedow called forth in q
stentorian voice
Silence, knave, and bringst unto us
the boar's head"
And he of Ireland wot not what was
meant, because in his isle pig was q
pig. Yet he bethought himself, and
went forth, and returning, sat before
Baron Rowdedow the head Of book
agent who had devasted the baron's
domains with book sold only ON SUBJ
scription, Of which there were 900 parts
and an index.
And the Milesian said, "Here, sur, is
yer bore's head" And the baron and
his retainers did laugh laugh Of great
JOY, and such q Christmas was there
never before held in those parts.-Der-

The "Round Up.o

The roundup" is the gathering Of
the cattle which have run wild all win
ter and spring and separating them
from other focks. They are known, OF
course, by their brand, which has been
put on them the previous year. Having
been allowed to go free for many months
tho cattle are rs wild rs wolves, and 1t
is death to man to be standing on the
ground in their vicinity, as they will
horn him viciously. The only security
is to keep on the horse, and even he is
n depraved object except from his dis
cipline 10 drive up, divide and help
lasso the cattle. The COWS fear the
horses. Then there is the danger OF
being shot, as all tho herders carry re.
volyers and when words have passed
between two persons the man who does
not want to be shot goes back to the
camp and gets an order for his time on
the agent or banker at Cheyenne, who
cashds it, and he quits the country; or
he makes haste to ''get the drop" on
his opponent, and have blood on his
forehead for life. A little Indian ex-
posure mingles with this romance.
When the white man meets the Indian
the one runs away or they both shoot.
The whole ground. up as it is called,
takes up about six weeks, but requires
riding night and day and when one
gets off his horse he is not quite certain
that he is going to get on sgain, as the
animal makes desperate effort to run,
and he is as wild as the cattle. Going
at an awful gallop on the plains, there
are gopher holes into which the steer
puts his foot, and perhaps executing
three or four som ersaults, breaking his
riders ribs. Mr.. Emmett SAWS tho sys

II We have made arrangement for
continuing for the present year the
publication of the sales of registered
sheep In the Vermont Sheep Breeders
Association. A large number of West
ern sheep breeders already on our sub
scription list, and the fact. that new
names are added to it every week,
prove that an outlay for the prepare
ton Of the copy for publication is ap'
preciated. Q intend soon to give
greater prominence to this industry,
which has given Addison county and
Vermont reputation throughout the
world, and shall make our paper oi
especial value to every merino sheep
breeder. Our Western and Eastern
subscribers can greatly aid us in this by
extending onr circulation among theil
neighbors, and by sending us items o.
news concerning the fine wool sheep
business and movements in their vicin'
ity.
It will be proper to state that the
Register is the only paper which has
made arrangements for the publica
ton of these sales and transfers. Moi'
of our exchanges which have in the
past appropriated these sales from oui
columns have apparently abandoned
the business on learning the terms on
which we obtained them, and only the
Journal of this place still continues itf
Q ,ntemptible thieving, of course being
however, a week late In Its publication.
We do not know as we have any reme-
dy aginst this kind Of stealing, but the
recent addition to our subscription list

had been subscribers of the Journal
