THE WALRUS ON LAND.
He Is just as Helpless as Canalboat
Would Ee.

Would BE.
As might be expected, q walrus is
about as helpless on land as q canalboat.
It is with no little difficulty and much
hitching and fioundering that he drags
his huge bulk upon q sandy shore even
with the boosting he gets from behind
by the breakers as they roll i'll and dash
against him. His hind fippers are Of
little use on land, and Oh sand or peb-
bles, where his front fippers do not
hold well, the labor OF laundering for
ward is so great that he never stirs be-
yond the edge of the water and usual
ly lies with his body half awash, with
the salt spray dashing over him like
torrents of rain. On solid rock or ice he
gets along much better, and often y
herd will spread several rods back from
the waters edge
The females and younger walruses
have far less development of neck to
cucumber them and therefore enjoy
more freedom Of motion than the old
males, who actually seem a great bur-
den to themselves. These creatures are
strictly social in their habits and always
go in herds, whether travelling, feeding,
fighting OF resting ashore In the days
before the slaughter of all living crea-
lures became ruling passion in tho
breast of man the Pacific species i'll
habited the whole of Boring sea and
straits in herds which often contained
thousands and even tens Of thousands OF
individuals st. Nicholas,

Themistooles, the hero Of Sala,nis,
was sent into Punishment by the pri:c-
tice Of ostracism. This was a purely
Athenian device to prevent any citizen
becoming too great. When any man ac-
CURED such prominence as to be unsafe
to the state, number OF citizens de-
manded a vote, which was taken by
writing on shells the name of the too
prominent citizen. If a majority voted
against him, he was sent into exile, not
because he had done anything, but for
fear he might do something. He staid
away from five to ten years, then re-
turned and resumed his standing as
citizen without loss of property OF rep
utation. Themistoc]es was ostracized
and went into exile. where he was soon
accused of treasonable correspondence
with the Persians He was about to be
arrested, but fled to Persia. He gained
great influence at the Persian court and
projected. an invasion of Greece, but
died, it is supposed by poison, before
his plans could be realized EXCHANGE
