The Whale--Page 160. The loss of the Essex is a striking proof of the power
of the whale. This vessel was fishing in the Great South Sea, between the main
continent of America and the Marquesas. A boat was out, and had succeeded
in striking a large sperm whale; but in its agony, the animal struck the
boat, and the crew, at once, were obliged to cut away their prize, and to make
all haste for their ship to repair damages. This they succeeded in ; but their
safety was short-lived : for a large whale, probably the same, rose near the
ship, as if challenging her, and with tremendous power, came with its full
force against her. Tlie ship trembled at the concussion ! The whale rose, swam
some distance a-head, and then wheeled round, and came with steady and
determined power, lashing the sea with great violence, and struck the ship
a second time. This was enough ; his victory was complete; and the ship
foundered in a very short time ; and the crew, twenty in number, took to their
boats. The subsequent history is too full of horrors to relate. A few nights
after the wreck, a large fish attacked the boat the captain was in, and well
nigli destroyed it; and, eventually, but five of the twenty men survived. This
is but a specimen of what the whale could do ; but it is an exception to the
general rule, and well calculated to fill the heart with thanksgiving, that it is
but a solitary case; for the whale fishery still goes on, and the fear of man,
and the dread of man, as God promised to Noah, is upon every beast of the
earth, and upon every fowl of the air ; upon all that moveth on the earth,
and upon every fish of the sea ; into his hands are they given. (Gen. ix. 2. )
The Nautilus--Page 192. The navies of the world, here and there, are
all built on the fish model; and the ancients, moreover, supposed mankind
learnt the art of sailing from the beautiful little Nautilus. Pope, in his
" Essay on Man," thus alludes to it:--
" The art of building, from the bee receive ;
Learn of the mole to plough; the worm, to weave :
Learn of the liTTle nauTilus to sail.
Spread the thin oar ; and catch the driving gale. "

The Pigeon--Page 234. It has been justly said that the whole creation is
filled with life, and yet one finds it impossible to realize the amount, though
we may attempt to do so. Wilson, the great ornithologist, or historian of
birds, speaks of a flight of pigeons in Kentucky, that occupied a mile in
breadth, and 240 miles in length, which he thus numbers :--supposing that
each square yard of this body comprehended three pigeons, the square yards
multiplied by three, would give 2,230,272,000 birds. Again, Captain Flinden
states, in his voyage, that he met a flock of stormy petrels that could not be
less than 151,000,000. And an oflicer who visited South Shetland, in the
Antarctic regions, states that the ground in some parts was covered with
penguins, to the amount of some millions. And that nothing in the vast
creation should be without use, the very dwellings of these, and other birds,
are strewed with a rich manure of exceeding value. Who would have ever
calculated that two English merchantmen should have gone out this very
year, and that their destination should be an island far away on the coast of
Africa, from whence they are to import into this country, hundreds of tons of
this valuable manure. It will be an interesting inquiry some day to enume-
rate the thousands of tons of English shipping that are annually employed in
this and similar service. The consumption of ouano (which is the name of
this article) in this country is very great.
Vivisection--Page 259. The late Sir C. Bell has been referred to as
opposed to this wicked science. To some this may appear strange, as he once
practised it; but he could not go on. In a letter to his brother, he says, in
words never to be forgotten,--" I cannot proceed without experiments, which
are so unpleasant that I defer them. I cannot convince myself that I am
authorized in nature or religion to do those cruelties. "
The Buffalo--Page 319. " The great variety of uses to which the
Indians convert the body, and other parts of the Buffalo, are almost incredible
to the person who has not actually dwelt amongst these people, and closely studied
their modes and customs. Every part of their flesh is converted into food, in one
shape or another ; and on this they entirely subsist. The robes of the animal
are worn by the Indians instead of blankets ; their skins, when tanned, are used
as coverings for their houses, and for their beds ; undressed, they are used for

constructing canoes ; for saddles, bridles, varrets, lassos, and thongs ; the horns
are shaped into ladles and spoons ; the brains are used for dressing the skins,
and the bones for saddle-trees, war-clubs, and scrapers for graining their robes ;
others are taken for their marrow ; their sinews are used for strings, and backs for
their bows, and for thread to string their beads, and sew their dresses ; the feet,
when boiled, make glue, by which they fasten the heads of their arrows, &c. ;
and the hair from the head and shoulders is twisted and made into halters ;
and the tail itself is used for a fly-brush. "--Catlins Letters on the North Ame-
rican Indians, vol. i. p. 262.
Insecta--Page 338. The study of insects is called Entomology. This
name is derived from the Greek word entomos, an insect, and logos, the word
or doctrine; and this word logos you will find as the formative word in all
the other classes : thus, Icthyology means the study of fishes; Ornithology, of
birds ; Conchology, of shells ; and Zoology, of animals ; this last, indeed, takes
in the whole animal kingdom. Logos is also used in other sciences : thus we
have Geology, Mineralogy, and many others.

O what a bright and blessed world
This groaning earth of ours will be,
When from its throne the tempter hurl'd,
Shall leave it all, O Lord, to Thee!
But brighter far that world above,
Where we, as we are known, shall know
And, in the sweet embrace of love,
Reign o'er this ransom'd earth below.
O blessed Lord! with weeping eyes,
That blissful hour we wait to see;
While every worm or leaf that dies
Tells of the curse, and calls for Thee.
Come, Saviour, then, o'er all below
Shine brightly from Thy throne above;
Bid heaven and earth Thy glory know
And all Creation feel Thy love.
