kerguslen's Land.

la former years the kerguelen group
OF islands was noted as a favorite breed
ing-place for the sea elephant. On this
account it has been much frequented
by sealers for the last 40 years, and re-
sorted to by whslers as a wintering
place. The elephants have been So reck-
lessly killed, that they are now quite
rare. but are still found in considerable
numbers On Hurd'S Island. Probably
they would long ago have entirely aban-
doned the Kerguelen Island, but for
the single inaccessible stretch Of coast
called Bonfire Beach," where they
still haul up" in the months of Octo.
Der and November, and breed in con-
siderable numbers. This beach is shut
In by precipitOus cliffs, across which it
Is quite impossible to transport oil in
casks, nor can boats land from the sea,
or vessels lie at anchor in the offing, on
account of the heavy western winds
which prevail great part of the time.
On capturing small female some seien-
lists made careful examination of it
with this result: 1t was eight feet and
len inches long, and in girth eight feet
and four inches, being enormously fat.
The layer of fat, beneath the skin. was
four inches thick, and the body seemed
almost formless, and the fat quivered
ike jelly. Another specimen which
they killed, bull elephant, measured
twenty three feet in length. These fel-
lows, which alone are provided with Il
proboscis, each take charge of
large number of females, guarding them
rom the approach of other bulls, aud
prevent them from returning to the sea
before the young are old enough to do
50 with safety. During the breediug the
bulls are very pugnacious, fighting
iercely with each other, and even at
tacking the sealers themselves. AL
though seemingly 50 unwieldly, they
get over the beaches with surprising
speed-advancing both tlippers at a
time and using them like crutches. The
beaches of the Royal Sound are fringed
by iHnumerable wallows OF cradle-sha-
ped pits, in which the animals lie dur
ing the breeding season, recalling the
buffalo wallOws OF our Western prai-
ries.
Besides the sea elephant the sea leop-
ard often visits the island, as do sever
al species of seal. The leopard is hunt
cd for its oil, but is less valuable than
the elephant, being a much more ac-
tive animal, and therefore less heavily
loaded with blubber. The king pen
guin is said to be its favorite food,
which speaks we'll for the sea leopard's
activity in water, the penguin swim.
ming rapidly enough. of course, 10
catch the fish upon which il feeds. The
leopard is described as pursuing and
oyertaking the penguin under water,
rising to the surface aud tossing il into
the air, SO as to catch it more securely,
erosswise, in its jaws. 1t is also said
that many species of whale and por-
poises abound in the neighboring seas.
In the early days Of whaling in the In
dian Ocean, the DeSolation Islands are
said to have literally swarmed with
whales, for which the numerous inlets
md bays Of the archipelago furnished
secure aud sheltered breeding places.
Even now this region is one Of the best
whsle-6shiHg grounds of the Antarctic
Seas.

Arctic Adventure.

Now that 50 much discussion has
been raised on the subject of the alleged
cannIhalism in the Greely Expedition,
some interest may be felt in another
dreadful story of priyatiOn and danger,
where a similar temptation was heIoic-
ally resisted, rs told by James McIn-
tosh sole survivor from one of the boats
of the whaler "Chieftain." On May
26 last the ''Chieftain' sent out four
boats Ill chase VI whale, Two VI which,
one commanded by Alexander Balm,
the harpoOner, lost the ship, and failing
to lind her, shaped their course for Ice
land. Some days later two of Bain's
crew died and Mcintosh then came into
Bain's boat from the other to act as
steerSman. The only other occupants
of the boat then were Balm and sea-
man named McGregor. On the follow
ing day Balm thought he saw land, and
they altered their course to steer to it,
but found it to he only the reflection of
cloud. By SO doing they lost their
cOnsort, which did not follow them.
Next day, McGregDr died. and his body
was committed to the deep. The same
day storm arose, which lasted three
days, during all of which time Mcintosh
remained at his post as steerSman while
Balm lay helpless and deSpairIng in the
bows. AT last the storm abated, and
the undaunted steeTsman addressed
some cheering words to his comrade.
without Tousing him from his lethargy,
which continued SO long that Mcintosh
at last grew anxious and though hardly
able to move, his legs being benumbed
with cold, managed to crawl along on
his hands and knees to the bow of the
boat, and found BaIu quite dead. A
terrible sense of utter loneliness came
over him, mingled with the fear that in
his desperate condition The had not
tasted food of any kind for several days)
he might yield to the temptation of
of nOurishment within his reach. De-
term!ned TO avoid this danger at all
events, he with great effort, weak as
he was. succeeded in heaving his dead
comrades body overheard. On the
fourteenth day he perceived small
schooner and made desperate effort to
wave his cap to attract attention. He
was seen and picked up by the ship. but
1t was found necessary to amputate
both legs, modification having set in,
He finally arrived, at Dundee on Friday
week. This gallant fellow, whe is mar
ried and has one child, Is now in per-
fectly destitute condition, rs the loss of
his legs precludes his returning to his
former seafaring occupation, and he
has never learned any other trade.

Art of Early Rising.

The proper time to rise is when sleep
ends. Doing should not be allowed.
True sleep is the aggregate of sleeps or
is state consisting of the sleeping or
rest of all the several parts of the or
ganism. Sometimes one and at other
times another part of the body, as a
whole, may be the least fatlgued, and
therefore the most difficult to arouse.
The secret of good sleep is, the physio-
logical conditions of rest being estab-
lished, so to worry and weary the sever
al parts of the organism as to give them
proportionally equal need of rest at
the same moment; and to wake early
and feel ready to rise, fair and equal
start of the sleeper should be secured;
and the wise self-manager should not
allow drowsy feeling of the conscious
ness or weary senses, or an exhausted
muscular system, to beguile him into
the folly of going to sleep again when
he has been aroused. After few days
of self-discipline, the man who resolves
not to doze, that is, not to allow some
sleepy part of his body TO keep him in
bed after his brain has once awakened,
will find himself, without knowing why,
an early riser.

Worlds Fair for 1889.

France is beginning seriously to pre-
pare for the Exposition in 1889, and II.
Proust, who held the post of Minister
of Fine Arts in Gambetta's Ministry,
will be appointed Commissioner General
next week. There Is some doubt
whether the intention OF making the
Exposition celebrate the centenary of
the taking of the Bastile will not
operate to anger the Monarchists Of
Europe and thus hurt the chances OF
the show. Germany is said to have
promised cordial support and q large
