lands in the world. 1t is called White
island, and consists mainly of sulphur
mixed with gypsum and q few other
minerals. Over the island, which is
about three miles in circumference.
and which rises between 500 and 900
feet above the sea, floats continually
an immense cloud of vapor. attaining
an elevation of 10000 feet. In the GEN.
ter is boiling lake of acid-charged
water, covering so acres, and sur
rounded with blow holes, from which
steam and sulphurous fumes are emit
ted with great force and noise. With

light what appears to be the tomb of
UgoGno della Gherardesca, more IA
miliar to readers Of Dante's Inferno
as Count Ogolino. He was Neapolitan
who in the thirteenth century endeav-
ored to usurp the government of Pisa.
and for a time succeeded, exercising his
power with great severity. In 1888 =
conspiracy was set on foot for his over
throw. The count was taken prisoneE
and with three Of his sons and one of
his grandsons wss left to die of hunger.
The present discovery Of a rectangular
tomb with five skulls and some bones
in the place Of burial assigned TO the
count by tradition seems to confirm
