IN THE SOUTH SEAS.

By Frank 7. Bullen, in THE Cruise
OF the Cachalot": When between Co.'S
moledos and Astove. the next island to
the northward. we sighted SOLITARY
cachalot one morning Just as the day
dawned. 1t was the first for some time
nearly three weeks-and being we'll
seasoned to the work now. we obeyed
the call to arms with great alacrity.
Our friend was making a passage. turn
Ing neither to the right hand nor the
left as he went. His rising and num-
ber Of spouts while up, as we'll as the
time he remained below, were as reg
ular as the progress OF a clock. and
could be counted upon with quite as
much certainty.
Bearing in mind. suppose. the gen
eral character of the whales we had
recently met with. only two boats were
lowered to attack the newcomer, who.
all unconscious Of our coming. pursued
his leisurely course unheeding.
We got good weathergage of him.
and came flying on as usual, getting
two irons planted in fine style. But a
surprise awaited us. AS we sheered up
into the wind away from him, Louis
shouted: "Fightin' whale. sir; look
out for de rush." Look out. indeed!
Small use in looking out when, ham
pered as we always were at first with
the unshipping of the mast. we could
do next to nothing to avoid him. With
out any OF the desperate fiounderings
generally INDUCED in on first feeling
tho iron, he turned upon us, and had
1t not been that he caught sight OF the
second mates boat, which had just ar
rived, and turned his attention to her,
there would have been but scant
chance Of any escape for US. Leaping
half out of the water. he made direct
for our comrades with vigor and fe-
easy matter for them to avoid his tre-
mendous rush. Our actions. at no time
slow, were considerably hastened by
his display OF valor, SO that before
he could turn his attention in our di-
rection we were ready for him. Then
ensued a really big fight, the first, in
fac. of my experience, for none of the
other whales had shown any serious
determination to do US an injury. but
had devoted all their energies to at
tempts at escape. So quick were the
evolu..ons. and so savage the appear
ance Of this fellow. that even our vet
eran mate looked anxious as to the
possible result. Without attempting 10
sound the furious monster kept mostly
below the surface; but whenever he
rose, It was either to deliver fearful
blow with his tail. or. with jaws wide
spread, to try and bite one OF our boats
