Durin;:,§' my abode on Beering’s island, savs
Steller, I liad frequent‘opportunities tostudy the
"nature of‘I.hes'e aiiiinals.” 'l‘hc-narrative ofthe in-
tiumerable tricks they played us, might vie with
Albcr_tus~Julius’s History of the Apes on theis-
land ‘of Saxenburgh. Thiey forced themselves
into.our. habitations by night -as well as by day;
s.teali:ng all that they could carry oil‘, even things
:liat—wei'e ofno use to them, as knivcs. sticks,.and
They were so inconceivably ingenious
as to roll down our casks ofprovisions, each weigh-
ingseveral-/zoods, [a pood is equal to foriy'Rus-
sian pounds, each somewhat less than the Eng-
I/lSl‘l pound] and then steal the mezit out of them
soably, that, at first, we could not porsu-ado our-
selves to ascribe the theft to them, As we strip-
ped any animal of its skin, it often liappened thafi
we could not avoid stabbing two or (lll‘C€~f0K-ES,
on account of their rap-acity in tearing the flesh
out of our hands. If we buried it ever so care-
fully, and even added stones to the weight that
wasiuipon it, they not only found it out, but with
their shoulder shoved away the stones. lying un-
der them, and helping one another with all their
might. If, in orderto secure it, we fixed an an-
imal-on the top of a high post, they either dug
tip the eaith at the bottom, andthus tumbled the
whole down, or one of them clamhered up, and
with incredible al‘IlliC.‘-: and dexterity, threw down
what was upon it.
They watched all our motions, and accompan-
ied us, whatever wcwere about to do. Ifthc sea
threw; up an animal 'of any "kind, they devoured
it, before we could arrive to rescue it from them.
If they sawany one‘ coming at a distance, the
‘Whole troop would join, and begin digging all to-
getlierin the sand, till a beaver or a sea-bcar
would be so completely buried under the £i|Il'iitCC,
that not a tract ofit could be seen. In the night
time when we were asleep, they came and pulled
off our Illgllt caps, and szole our gloves from un-
der our heads, with the beaver covt-i'iiigs, and the
skins that ave lay upon. In consequence ofiliis,
we always slept with sticks by our sides, that if
they awoke us," we might drive ‘them away, or
knock them on the head.
V VVhen we made a halt to rest by the way, they
gathered round us, and played a thousand tricks
in our sight, and when we sat still, they approach-
ed so near as to gnaw the thongs ofour shoes. If
we lay down, as if intending to sleep, they came
and smelt at our noses, to discover whether we
were dead or alive ; if we held our breath, they
gave us such a tug by the nose, as if they would
have bitten it off. On our first arrival they actu-
ally devoured the noses, the fingers, and the toes
ofthe dead, while we were preparing the grave,
and thronged in such a manner about the sick and
infirm, that it was with difficulty we could keep
them off. , y _ I
Every‘ morning we saw ,these audacious ani-
mals patrolling about among the sea-lions and sea-
bears lying on the str;~.n.'l smelling at such as were
asleep, to discover whether some one of them
might not be dead ; if that happened to be the
case, they proceeded to dissect him immediately,
and soon afterwards all‘ fell to work to drag the
parts away. As the sea-lions sometimes in their
sleep overlay their young, the foxes, as if con-.
scious of this circumstance, every morning ex-
amined the ivhole herd one by one, and immedi-
ately draggedaivay the dead cub from their dams.
As. tti'ey,’iv,ould not suffer us to be at rest either
by niglitor day, we“ became so exasperated at
them, that we killed them young and old, and
destroyed by everyiheans we could devise. VVhe_n
we awoke in the -inorning, there always lay two
or three that hadbeen knocked on the head dur-
ing the night ; and I can safely affirm that during
my stay upon the island, I killed above two hon-
djifed of these animals with my own handsf On
the third day after my arrival, Iknocked down
with a club, within the space of three hours, up-
Wards of seventy of them, and made a covering
10 my but with their skins. They were so raven-
ous, that with one hand we could hold tothem a
’ piece of flesh, and with a stick or an axe in the
other, could knock them on the head. _
They have nine or ten cubs at a litter, whicli
they drop in holes and clefts of the rocks. They
are so fond of their young, that to drive us rrsrii
them, they barked and yelled like dogs, - by which
the)fbctt'ayed their retreat ; but no sooner do they
17:-rce'i‘ve.tliat it is discovered, than, unless they be
1
‘prevented, tliey drag away tile-your‘; in

theinselves in the snow, where they lie as long as
it lasts. They swim across rivers with great dex-
terity. Besides‘ what is cast up by the sea, or
destroyed by other beasts, they sicze the sea-fowl
by night on the clefts where they have settled to
sleep ; but they on the contrary are themselves
frequently victims tothe birds of prey. From all
the circumstances that occurred during our stay,
it was evident that these animalscoiild never be-
fore-have been acquainted with mankind, and that
the dread of man is not innate in brutes, but must
be grounded on long experience.

i'c/tort of the state cf ]\’c:'ig."07z in the Congrega-
tional C/zurc/res of Connecticut, 182 I.
The ,committe’appointed to compile an abstract
from the reports of the several district associa-
tions on the state of religion within the limits of
the General Association of Connecticut, and the
several ecclesiastical bodies connected with it,
respeiztfully submit the following Report.
There are in this state ‘207 Congregational
churches and societies; a very large propottitm
ofwhich are atpreseot supplied with regular pas-
tors. Upon 84 ofthese, God has, during the past
_vear, poured out his spirit, and hopefully trans-
l'-itéd '-ibmlt 5000 souls out of darkness into his
marvellous light. This abundant shower oldi-
vine grace bcgaii to descend nearly a year ago.
Some of_the first drops of which, fell upon the
favoured city of New-Haven. The cloud which
was at liratno bigger than a man's hand, shading
and refreshing the souls of a few christians mour-
ning their own barrenness, and the wide spread
waste around them, soon expanded over the whole
town. reaching the neighbouring villages, over-
shadowed counties, and is now making its pro-
gress to the utmost borders, resting over us in
niajesty and mercy.
In attempting to discover the immediate causes
of this remarkable awakening, in the special ef-
forts of uiinislers and clti‘istia1‘.5,"we are Stopped
and bafiled. The members of the last general
Association returned to their respective charges
dislieartened and fe:ti'ftil.-—W'liilst- we ponder on
the forsaken and drooping state ofZion, anitl at a
loss what should be done to regain the presence
of otir grieved and injured Lord, suddenly he was
in the midst of us. VVC are therefore to recount
with adoring gratitude, the fruits of his sovereign
and gracious presence, rather than to boast ofthe
effoi'ts of human action.‘
Among the characteristics of this revival we
deem it important to notice in the
First place‘, its unity. It is the same in the
country as in the city--in the district school as in
the college, and among the aged and the young.
the moral and amiable, the vicious and violent,
the speculative believer, the formal professor, and
the infidel. A description of one copt'ei'tioti or
of one parish, is, with a fe':.' i_iniii’:portaiit valia-
tions, a desc ription of all. So entire is the unity
and sameness of the operations of the S;-"Pit in
this aivakéiiing, that ministers ftom distant towns
entered immediately into the the work in places
where they were strangers, without embarrass-
ment to themselves or detriment to the awakened.
There is therefore a retnarkablc oneness among
the new converts. Their hearts answer each to
the other, as in water, face answereth to face.
dence and love, and has led to that harmony and
facility of planning and executing which has giv-
en stability and continuance to the revivals where
they have begun, and is spreading them where
they are not. '
‘secondly its power and rapidity. So powerful
and overawing is the presence of God in this
work, that no combined, and but little intlivitl-.i'.il
opposition has appeared. Those who have no_t
been directly influenced, have looked on with
astonishment and awe. Many have beheld their
nearest and dearest relations, their iicighbois and
companions pass’ from death to life with a pecul-
iarly touching expression ofsadness in their coun-
tenances because they were passed by. Among
the most remarkable cases of conversion, were a
very small number who at the first with singular
hardiliood and impiety, either furiously opposed
or scornfully ridiculed the aivakeiiiiig. Their
C011VlCt‘-OD WES sharp, and their distress terrible.
In the great majority ofthe converts conviction
ofsin rapidly increased in intenseness. The most
of them continued but a short time under that
awful distress which accompanies complete cou-
viction. So powerful and rapid were the‘opera-
tions of the Spirit, that in- very many instances
the naked statement of divine truth, without ar-
gument to enforce, or illustration to explain it,
took immediate effect. The doct_rines of the gos-
pel came to them in the demonstration of the
spirit and with power.
Thil‘dl)'a 115 purity. VVc have not heard of
disorder or violence. Notwithstanding the great
diversity of age, natural temperament and educa-
tion ofthe awakened, anti the frequent and crowd-
ed meetings, no tumult or outcry has occurred.
Though the streets and highways were lined with
the multitudes going to the house of prayer, or
to the rooms of the anxious meeting, the convic-
ted" were silent, and the converted serene. They
have been universally docile to their ministers and
submitted to their guidance as the sheep to tlieir
shepherd. Intelligence has given wisdom to zeal
and temperance to strong emotion. The awaken-
ed and convicted have been exempt from ground-
less terrors, and the converted from fanciful joys.
Gotlwas terrible to the former because he is holy,
not because he is vengeful, and God was love-
ly to the latter, because" he is holy, not
merely because he is conceived to be recon-
ciled to them. The more deeply their hearts
have been affected either by distress or. joy, the
more vigorously they have searched the scrip-
tures, and the acquisitions‘ of divine knowledge
rather preceded than followed the tnovements of
el-hell‘ alfections. 5
. Fourthly, its continuance. The subjectsofthe
.work do not as yet appear to decline from that
warmth of gracious affection and energy of de-
sire for larger measures of knowledge and grace
which they exhibited at the time of their hopeful
.conversion. Although new conversions are by
theirl no means so fl-equeiit in those places where the
In storms and heavy falls of ' snow, they bury, .
Such perfect sympathy produces strong confi- _
awakening is of some months duration, yet in;
most of them, ifnot all, new instances of'con_vic"._-'-:-
tion continue to occur. Almost everyday is alsd
bringing to us joyful tidings that one after anoth-
er of our parishes is beginning to partake of this
copious effusion of the Holy Spirit.‘ - '
Fiftlily, its influence in elevating the christian
I-character both of ministers and churches. Min-
'istei;§. have preached plainly and boldly. Their
faithfulness however, has been without asperity,'~
and their courage has been joined with meekness.
They have spoken the truth in love. Anxious
sinners have repaired to their pastors with a free-
dom and opened to them their hearts with a con-
fidence hitherto unknown amongst us. \=‘V'e feel
ourselves authorized to declare not for the pur-
pose of exalting our brethren, but to honor the
power and grace of our Lord and Master, that ne-
ver have we beheld such an unction from the,Ho-
l_v-one in the prayers, sermons. temper and de-
portment of our ministers. They have labored
abundantly, and have been uncommonly_strength-
cried and supported to endure extraordinary exer-
tions. The ministers of the state at the present
time, are united in sentiment, and their hearts
re knit together in love. .
Private christians also have been excited to
more openness and decision. They have prompt-
ly and heartily seconded the efforts of their pas-
tors. "Ibex have possessed a remarkable spirit
of pra'yer. Feeling the absolute dependence of
both saints -and sinners, on the sovreign agency
with the simplicity of little children. A sense of
the eflicacy of prayer has existed in a special de-
gree, and it isjstillincreasinfr. They are inves-
tigating this subject with an artlor which we have
never hitherto known. Churches have also felt
asolicitudc for their sister churches; not content
with barren wishes for their welfare, they have
visited each other, to go together to pray before
the Lord. and to talk of the things of his king-
dom. Tlicy have. spoken often to one another,
and the Lord has harkeiied and board.
This awakening has given anew impulse to all
the 0pera'.ions of christian benevolence in our
state. New hopes are prompting new undertak-
ings, and expectation is awake.
Yale College has also partaken of the special
presence and mercy ofthe great Redeemer. Of
the youth there, about 40 have recently been hope-
fully converted, and 20 of these have been receiv-
ed into the church; making the whole number of
the members ofthe church, between 90 and 100.
This institution may be regarded as in a high-
ly floiirishing state ; its numbers exceed those of
any former period, and the patrons of the Educa-
tion Society must be gratified to learn that while
they are preparing the means oftlilfusiiig the gos-
pel, they are also, through their beneficiaries,
exerting a most benign influence on the state of
religion, in so important a seat of learning.
The foreign mission school at Cornwall con-
'tinues to flourish, and several of the licathtn
youth there have recently given evidence of their
hopeful conversion.
, Finally, Brethren the days of l7-1.0 have return»-
ed with brighter ltistrc. There iemain amongst
us here and there, a Simeon and an Anna of that
glorious day, who have waited from that time to
this for the consolation of Israel. The hour has
come. They are giving a rapid and exulting
glance at the flying clouds and hastening away to
carry the glad titliiigs to the upper world. Breth-
ren! where are your harps ? Shout Oh I inhabi-
tant of Zion. Sing a new song. The lord hath
triumphed gloriously. ’ _
The General Assembly of the Presbyterian
Church, after mentioning as sources of lamenta-
tion, errors in doctrine and morals, the neglect
of family and social prayer, coldness and indiffer-
ence on the part of some professing christians,
and the want of labourers in the gospel vineyard,
proceed to say, ‘ \-Vhile on these accounts the As-
sembly have causes for lamentation, and call _up-
on their churches to sympathize, and pray lor
those among whom the abovcmentioned evils ex-
ist: they also call upon their churches to unite
with them in sentiments and expressions ofgrati-
tude and praise to God for his great, his unuierit-
ted, and his continuedgoodness. \Ve have pro-
bably, say they, never heard so much, nor had
so mucl‘. to tell of the wonderful works ofGod as
inidst the churches under our care.’
They state that ‘ additions have been made dur-
ing the last year to their churches, from \\ hich re-
ports have been received, of H86 souls.’
‘\Vhile many of these have been the fruits of
the Spirit, descending like the small and silent
dews, many others have been the fruits" of the
same bpiiit falling in copious showers which a-
bundantly water the parched field. Within 18
presbyteries more than 90 congregations have
been visited with special seasons of i'efreshing
from the presence of the Lord.-
From the General Association of Massachu-
setts wc learn that the line between those who
build their hopes of salvation on the atonement of
the God incarnate and those who deny the Lord
that bought them, is more distinctly draign, that
this fact may account for the apparent increase of
the numbers, and efforts ofthe abettors of a most
dangerous erioi.
From the report of this body it appears that
members of churches in their communion have
been blessed with special revivals of religion and
that. the churches in general with their ministers
are more closely united in the bonds of Christian
fellowship.
The benevolent ellorts ofthis body ofchi-istians
tlese.-.rvetlly distinguished for their liberality, ap-
pear to have suffered no diminution, but rather
have been augmented. -
From the General Assembly of New Hamp-
shire, we receive the pleasing intelligence that
the cause of evangelical truth is gaining ground,
that there is an increased attention to religious
institutions, that the waste places are rebuilding,
and that a number of their congregations have
been favored with the effusions of the Spirit.
VVhile the churches in Vermont are rejoicing
in the happy effects of former revivals and the
more recent visitation of divine grace upon a- few
oftheir members they are mourningthe absence
of the Spiritin his convicting and converting in‘-
lluence from most oftlieir congregations. -
From Rhode-Island we learn that all the eastern
part of the State has been visited with a gracious
revival of religion in the course of the year 1820.
Most of their churches have been enlarged with
K‘
