German ocean on the east, and guards the
rivers Elbe, Weser and Jade on the south.
about twenty-three miles from Germany.
As we approach it we see frowning. precip-
itous rock Of red stone, and enter by the
north passage. where there is a landslip from
the mainland, called the Hoof rock. The
island is pointed and narrow, but gradually
it widens out until we see the lighthouse aRd
a few email houses on the rock; and, enter
ing the roadstead, we notice the lower town,
and Immediately facing it, at distance of
nearly mile, is Sandy island, rightly go
called, with small burial ground for the in
terment of those drowned at see, a hotel
and about seventy bathing machines for Wis
itors to Heligoland, who are taken across in
small, strangely shaped boats. The normal
population of the town is two Thousand, but
in the season the island is full of German
visitors, and excursions sre run from Cuxha-
