Power of the Whale.

If the whale knew its own power
Il could easily destroy all the ma
chinery which the art Of man could
devise for catching him. 1t would
only be necessary for him to swim
on the surface in straight line in
order to break the thickest rope,
but instead, on being struck by the
harpoon, he obeys a natural in
stinct, which, in this instance, be-
trays him to his death. Not having
an air bladder, he can sink to the
lowest depths Of the ocean, and,
mistaking the harpoon for the teeth
of a swordfsh or a shark, he in
stantly descends, this being the
manner of freeing himself from
these enemies, who cannot bear the
pressure of deep ocean, and from
descending and ascending in small
space he thus puts himself in the
power of the whaler.
