MISCELLANY.
DESCRIPTION OF TH E CAPTURE
OF A VVI-[AL E.
Tm: cockswaiii cast a cool glance at
the crests offoam that were breaking o-
vcr the tops of the billows within a few
yards of where their boat was riding, and
called aloud to his incn-—
“Poll :1 stroke or two ; away with her
into dark water.”
The drop of the oars rcsmbled the
movements ofa nice machine, and the
light boat skimmed along the water like
it duck, that approaches to the very brink
of some imminent danger, nnd then a-
voids it at the most critical moment, ap-
parentlywithout an effort. \Vliilc this ne-
cessary movement was making, Barn-
stablo arose, and surveyed the cliffs with
keen eyes, and then, turning once more
in disappointment from his search, he
said—-
“Pull more from the land, and let her
run down,at an easy stroke,to the schoo-
nor. Keep a lookout at the cliffs, boys;
some of the holes in the rocks, for it’s no
day-light business they are on."
The order was promptly obeyed, and
they had glided along for near a mile in
this manner, in the most: profotlnd si-
lonco, when suddenly the‘ stilliicsswas
broken by a heavy rush of air, and a
dash of water, seemingly at no great
distance from them. ,
“Byhcaven ‘. Torn,"cricd Barnstablc,
starting, “there is the blow of a whale.”
“A y, ay, sir," rotiirned the cockswain,
with undisturbed composure; “here is
hisspout, nothalf a mile to seaward ;
the easterly gale has driven um creature
to leeward, and he begins to fmd himself
in shoal water He's been shaping,
while he should have been working to
~...- meat with you 1: fair Y":-'.'I~.'l'.' or
foul 3”
“I never trust the boat from the sol oo-
ner without part of a shot, sir, ” tourn-
ed the the cockswain; “there is seine-
tliing natural in'tlie siglitofa tub to my
old ‘eyes.'l’
Barnstablc looked at his watch, and
again at the cliffs, when he exclaimed in.
joyous tories--- ,
“Give strong way, my hearties ! There
seems nothing better to be done; let US
have a stroke of a harpoon at that impu-
dent rascal.”
The men shouted spontaneously, and
the cockswain suffered his solemn visage
to relax into a small laugh, while the
wliale-boat sprang forward like a courser
for the goal, )During the few mimitcs
they were pulling towards their game,
long '1‘om arose from his croucliingatti-
tndc in the stern sheets, and transferred
his huge frame to the bows of the boat,
arliere he made such preparation to
strike the whale as the occasion required.
'I_‘lic tub containing about halfof a whale
line,was placed at the feet of Barnstnble,
who had been preparing an our to steer
with, in place of the rudder, which was
unsqliipped in order that, if necessary, the
boat might be whirled around when not
advancing.
Their approach was utterly unnoticed
by the monster of the deep, who contin-
ned to amuse himself with throwing the
water in two circular spouts high into the
air, occasionally flourishing the broad
tlukes of,liis tail with graceful but tsrific
force, until the hardy seamen were with-
in a few hundred feet of him, when he
suddenly cast his head downwards, and,
without an apparent effort reared his
immense body for many feet above the
water, waving his tail violently, and pro-
ducing ‘a wliizzing noise, that sounded.
like the rushing of winds. The cockswain
stood erect, poising his harpoon, ready
for the blow ; but, when he beheld the
creature assume this formidible atttitude,
he waved his hand to his commander,
who instantly signed to his men to cease
rowing. In this situation the sportsmen
rested a few moments, while the whale
struck several blows on the water in ra-
pid succession, the noise ofwliich re-cch-
oed along the cliffs, like the hollow re-
ports of so many cannon. After this
wanton exhibition of his terible strength,
the monster sunk again into his native
element, and, slowly disappeared from
the eyes of his pursuers. '
“\Vliicli way did he liead,Tom i" cried
Barnstable, the moment the whale was
out of sight. -' ~
“Pretty much up and down, sir,” re-
turned the cockswain, whose eye was
gradually brightening with the excite-
ment of the sport; “lie’ll soon run his
nose against the bottom, if he stands long
on tlltlt‘COlll‘Se, and will be glad to get
another snuff of pure air; send her ii
few fiithoms to starboard,sir,and I prom
ise we shall not be out of his track.”
The conjecture oftlie experienced old
seaman proved true, for in a few minutes
the water broke near them, and another
spout was cast into the air, when the
animal rushed for halfhis length in the
same direction, and fell on the sea with
a turbulence and foam equal to that-,
which is produced by the launching of a
vessel, for the first time, in its proper el-?
ement. After this evolution, the whale
rolled heavily, and seemed to rest from
furtlicrcfforts. ’
His slightest movements were closely
watched by Barnstable and his cock-
swain, and, when he was in a state of
comparative rest, the former gaveza signal
to his crew to ply their ears once more.
A few long and vigorous strokes sent the
boat directly up to the broadside of the
whale, with its bows pointing towards
one of the fins, which was at times, as
the animal yielded sluggislily to the ac-
tion of the waves, exposed to view.--
The cockswain poised his liarpoon with
much precision, and then darted it from
him with in violence that buried the iron
in the body of their fee. The instant;
the blow was made, long Tom shouted
with singular eariiestness—-
“Starn all l” 0
“Stem all !” echoed Barnstable ;
when the obedient seamen, by united "ef-
forts, forced the boat in a backward di-
‘pan
windward !"
“The fellow takes it coolly, too! lic’s
in no hurry to get an oiling."
"I rather conclude, sir," said the cock-
svvain, rolling over his tobacco in his
mouth vorycomposedly, while his little
sunken eyes began to twinkle with pleas-
ttreal. the sight, “the gentleman has lost
his reckoning, and dont know which
way to liead.to take himself back into
blue water."
“'Tis a fin back l" exclaimed the lien-
tenant ; “he will soon make head-way,
and be off."
“No, sir, ’tis a right whale," answg;-ed
Tom; [saw his spout ; he threw up a
motion, beyond the reach of any blow
from their formidable antagonist. The
alarmed animal, however, meditat_ed_ no
..qm~.li resistance ; ignorant of li{is*'ow_ri

moment of stupid surprise succeeded the

and cut tlirnttgli the billows witli is ter-

to bury the slight fabric in the ocean when
loiigToni beheld his victim throwing his
spouts on higli again,he pointed with ex-
ultation to the jetting fluid, which was
streaked with the deep red of blood, and
cried---
“Ay, I've touched the fellow’s life l--—
It must be more than two feet of bliiblier
that stops my iron from reaching the
life of any wlialo that ever scullcd the 0-

who entered into the sport with all the
chiefly passed in such pursuits ; “feel
your line, .l\Iaster Coflin ; can we haul
along side ofour enemy '! I like not
the course he is steering, as he tows us
from the schooner.” . - .
‘‘'Tis the creat;ur’s way, sir,” said the
cockswain ; “you know they need the air
in their nostrcls when they run the same
as a man ;butlay hold, boys, and let
us haul up to him.” '
The seamen now seized their whale-
line, and slowly drew their boat to with-
in a few feet of the tail of the fish, whose
progress became sensibly less rapid as
he grew weak with the loss of blood.---
In a few minutes he stopped running,
and appeared to roll uneasily on the. wa-
ter, as if suffering the agony of death.
“Shall _we pull in and finish him,
Tom I” cried Barnstable; “a few sets
from your bayonet would do it."
The coclsswain stood examining his
game with cool discretion, and replied
to this interrogator --—
“ No, sir, no---he's goinginto his flur-
ry ; there's no occasion for disgracing
ourselves by using a soldier’s weapon in
taking a whale. Starn off, sir, starn oh’!
the creature's in his flurry !” \
The warning of the prudent cockswaiu
was promptly obeyed, and the boat cau-
tiously drew off to a distance, leaving to
the animal a clear space while under its
dying agonies. From a state of perfect
rest, the terible monster threw his tail on
high as when in sport, bitt its blows were
trebled in rapidity andviolence, till all
was bid from view by a pyramid of foam,
that was deeply dyed with blood. The
roarings of the fish were like the bellow-
ings of a herd of bulls,&,to one who was
ignorant of the fact, "it would have. ap-
peared as if a thousand monsters were
engaged in dreadful combat behind the
bloody mist that obstructed the -view.---
Gradually these effects subsided, mid
when the discolourcd water again settle-
ed down to the long and regular swell of
the ocean, the fish was seen exhausted,
and yielding passively to its fate. As
life departed, the enormous black mass
rolled to one side, and when the white
and glistening skin of the belly became
apparent, the seamen well knew that
their victory was achieved.
RAPIDITY OF TIME.
Swiftly glide our years—tliey follow
each other like the waves of the ocean.-
Memory calls upon the persons we once
knew the scenes in which we once were
actors ; they appear lieforethc mind like
the panthoms ofa night vision. Behold
the boy, rejoiceing in the gaity of soul ;
the: wheels of time cannot move too'rap-
idly for him-‘-the light of hope dances in
his eye-—-the smiles of anticipation play
upon his lip-he looks forward to long
years of joy to come--his spirit burns
within him when he hears of great men
and mighty deeds--he wants to _bc a man
—-lie longs to mount the hill of am-
bition, to tread the paths of honor, to
liearthe» shouts of applause. \
Look at him again. He is now in the
meridan of life—-care has stamped its
wrinklenpon his brow-disappointment
has dimcd the lustre of his eye---sorrow
has thrown its gloom upon his counte-
nance---he looks back upon the winking-
drcams of .hi_s.youth, and sighs for their
futility—each revolving year seems to
diminish from his little stock of happiness
and he discovers that the season of youth
when the pulse of anticipation beats high
is the only season ofcnjoyments. '
VVlio is he of the aged locks 3 His form
is bent and totters—liis footsteps move
more rapidly toward the tomb-—lic looks
back upon the past--his days appear to
have been few, and he confesses that they
were evil---tlie magnificence of the great
is to him vanity-the hilarity ofyouth fol-
ly--considers how soon the gloom of
death must overshadow the one, and dis-
appointment the otlier ;, the‘ world pre-
thesea around him into increased com-
motion, and then disappeared, with the
quickness of lightning, amid a cloud of
foam. ,
“Snub him I” shouted Barnstable;
“hold on, Tom ; he rises already.”
Ay, ay, sir,” replied the composed
cockswain, seizing the line which was
pair of as pretty rainbows as a Christian
would wish to look at. Hc’s a real oil-
butt, that follow !"
Barnstable laughed, turned himself a-
way from the tempting sight, and tried
toylooki _,nt_'t_he clifs; and then uncon-
ciously bsnthis eyes again on the slug-
, gishianimal, who ‘was throwing his huge
. carcass at times for many feet from the
water, "idle gambols. The tcmtation
for sport, and the recollection of his car-
ly‘ habits," at‘ length prevailed over
his anxiotety in behalf of his friends, and

held his ascending path of life an-awed

human life--but such cannot be the uni.
mate destinies of man.
A fewweeks since an old lady on liear-
ing some one retnark that Gen. Jack-
with trcmulons vibrations, it indicated
the direction in which the animal might
be expected to re-appear. Barnstable

doc. In my late visit to Glasgow, Scot-
land, in the city and suburbs, and large
villages, where book clubs existed and
newspapers were read, the mechanics
would talk on history, geography, astron-
omy, chemistry, and politics with consid-
erable intelligenee. In more remote pla-
ces, where no papers were read, they
could talk of nothing but the tenets and
history of the sect, sins of the land
and its punishments, bad trade, price
of cattle and produce, and so forth.
These things seemed to be the limit of
their knowledge. Here I saw a vast dif-

_ DEATH.
The annexed paragraph is an eloquent
delineation of what all can feel, but what
few can so faithfully describe. It is from
the article entitled “Marriagc," a work
written with uncommon power and ability.
“There is perhaps no feeling of our na-
ture so vag‘ue,so complicated, so Misteri-
ous, as that with which we look upon the
cold remains of our fellow mortals. The
dignitics with which death invests even the
meanest of its victims, inspires us with "an
awe no living thing can create. The
monarch on his throne is less awful than
the beggar in his shroud. The marble
featurs---the powerless hand —tlie stifi"cn-
ed limb,---oh ! who can contemplate
these with feelings that can be defined 2
tliesearc the mockery of all our hopes
and fears, our fondest love, our fellest
hate. Can it be, that we now shrink with
horror from the touch of that haiid,wliich
but yesterday was fondly clasped in our
own? Is that toniige whose accents even
now dwell in our ear, forever chained in
the silence of death! These black and
heavy eyelids, are they forever to seal up
in darkness the eyes whose glance no
earthly power could restrain I And the
spirit which animated the clay’, where is
it now? Is it wrappedin bliss, or dissolv-
cd in wool Does it witness our gi'ief,imd
share our sorrows ‘l or is the misterious
type that linked it with mortality forever
broken? And the remembrance of earth-
ly scens, are they indeed tojthe enfran-
chised spirit as the morning dream, or
the dew upon the early flower? Reflec-
tions such as these naturlly arise in eve-
ry breast. Their influence is felt, though
their import connot always be expressed.
The principle is the, same, however it
may differ in its operations.”
