You can hire, and little to pay ;
But a woman's heart and a woman's life
Are not to be won that way.
Notes on Whales and Whaling.
History indicates the Basques or Bisca-,
yans as the first civilized race that equipped
vessels for whaling expeditions. At first
they contented themselves with decking .
whales in the adjacent seas, but as the per;
scouted animals grew scarcer, the boldest of
them sailed north and sought them in' their
own icy homes. ,' :
Gradually the Biscayans abandoned the
pursuit. In 1785 they only sent out ten or
twelve vessels, and nine years later, in 1744,
abandoned altogether this branch of com'. .
merce, which Iheyhad been first to open.
nurtoraax wanna was. .
In 1705 the Hamburg Greenland fleet
consisted of sixty~five sails. ' '~
In 1708, Frederick the Great ordered
whaling ships to be equipped at Sweden.
In 1774. the Sweedish government gave a
company at Gothenburg an exclusive privi-
ege for twenty years.
In 1770, Denmark decided on appropri—
ating to itself a portion of the profits which
other nations had been so long acquiring on
the coast of the Danish possessions in this
pursuit. ’
In 1788,, two hundred and twenty-two
English vessels were engaged in the N orth-
ern whaling trade.
For six hundred years the whale fishery
was carried on by the—Basques, Biscayans,
Icelanders and Norwegians, for the food
yielded by the tongue and the oil obtained
from the fat of the animal. It was not un-
til the seventeenth century that the whale
. fishery engaged the maritime nations of
Europe as an important branch of com-
merce. - _ -.
wuarmaomr
entered into the commerce of the fifteenth
century, and commanded the enormous
‘ price of £700 sterling a ton, exceeding a
money value of the present time of $10,000.
With an ignorance of science which now is
laughable even to our children, who know
, that the material for stays and hoops is
taken from the mouth, the law in the ftime
of Charles H appropriated the tail of every
whale caught by an English subject to the
use of the queen, for . the supply of the
royal wardrobe. .
EARLY venous. , ;
In 1480 the Portuguese reached the “Cape
of Storms," “the Lyon of the Sea,” and the
“Head of Africa"—as sometimes called—
but which in happy augury of an ultimate
passage to India was at last giventhe' less
omened name of "Cape of Good Hope" by
King John II. Immediately 'thereafler‘ the
northern states of Europe, and particularly
England and Holland, began that series of
voyages not yet ended in search of angeast-
ern passage through the floating fieldd and
rolling mountains of ice in the Arctic Ocean.
Their unsuccessful search disclosed the,
haunts .of the whales in the bays, and
créeks of Spitsbergen. In 1575 a Ldndon
merchant wrote to a foreign correspondent
for “advice and direction as to killing the
whale," and received instructions how to
build and equip a vessel of two hundred
‘ tons, and to man it exclusively with efxper-
. - ienced whale hunters of Biscay. The} Eng-
lish now claimed Spitsbergen and all its sur~
rounding ice and waters as having been dis
covered in 1583 by Sir Hugh Willoughby
who, it will be remembered, was unfortu-
nately entangled in the ice .and froze to
’ death 'on the coast of Lapland. He named
it' Greenland, supposing it ‘11 part of the
Western continent. Under that supposi-,
tion the Danes claimed the whole region,
while the Dutch alleged an earlier explor-
ation, and each of these nations sent armed
forces upon the fishing ground; moraio es-
tablish exclusive rights there than for the
protection of their low fishermen. In 1018
a general engagement took place, in which
the English were worsted. It took- some
fifty years to discover that it was absurd to
claim jurisdiction where no permanent pos-
session could be established by reason of
the rigor of the climate, and that there
were whales enough and room enough for
all competitors. Thenceforward the Aortic
whale fishery has been open to all nations.
In 1598 Hull, England, equipped the first
vessel from that port for the Greenland
whale fishery. .
In 1011 a society was formed at Amster-
dam to commence whaling on the cofasta of
Nova‘Zembla and Spitsbergen. In 1001 the
Dutch sent out one hundred and thirty-
three whalers, and between 1070 and 1782
five thousand eight hundred and eighty-six
, vessels left their ports, which captured dur-
ing that time 82,907 whales, whose value
may be estimated, at least, at $100,000,000.
The Dutch perfected the barpoon, the
reel, the line, and the spear, as well as the
art of using them; and with them origins.
ted the system of rewarding the officers and
crews employed in the pursuit, not with di-
rect' wages, but with shares and lays, as
they are technically termed in the spoils of
the game, proportioned to skill and .expcri.
ence. They turned the fishery to good ac-
count, aud in 1680 had 260 ships and 40,000
sailors engaged in it. They even founded a
fishing settlement called Smecrenburg, 0n
the coast of Spitzbergen, within eleven de-
grees of the North Pole, and took whales
in such abundance in its vicinity that ships
were sent out in ballast to bring home the
surplus oil and bone above the capacity of
the whaling vessels. The whales, thus vig.
‘ orously attacked, again changed their lurk.
- ing place, and Spitsbergen was abandoned
by the fishermen, so that the very siteof
. The plain harpoonemployed-by-the early
whalers'is still, in use. There have been
various modifications of its. form, such . as
harpoons with one fluke, those with joints,
having had their day, have given way to the
plain, primitive Dutch weapon. There have
been curious machines constructed for shoot-
ing whales, and contrivances to blow the
animal up, and recently attempts have been
made to conquer him with an electric
shock ; but nothing yet has been fabricated
that is at all comparable to a pair of ner-
vous and dexterous arms, more especially
if united to a stout heart. The difficulty
seems to be in constructing a torpedo of
suficient force that will not incumber the
.boat by its size and weight. -

In 1490 Sebastian Cabot, seeking a north-
western passage to the Indies, discovered
Newfoundland, and immediately thIwaters
surrounding it were enlivened by the pres-
ence of thc Basques, Biscayans, Dutch and
English, in chase of the whale. In New
England this animal was first sought by
Captain John Smith of Pocahontas mem-
ory, on thc coast of Maine. As early as
1014, or sixteen years before the settlement
of Boston, an expedition was fitted out un-
der his command “to take whales." He did
not, however, meet with the success his en-
terprise deserved, for he says, “We found
this whale fishing a costly conclusion. We
saw many and spent much time in chasing
of them, but could not kill any, they being
a kind of Invanates and not the whale that
yields the fins and oils as expected.” Leav-
ing his vessel, Smith with eight men ranged
the coast from Penobscot to Cape God in a
boat, and after his return published a chart
and gave to the country thus explored the
name of New England. _ The Inv tes he
could not catch were probably the -back,
which is often seen on our coast,'but film
its little value and because of its great speed,
is never sought and seldom captured. We
judge from his remark touching the fins,
that be supposed that they and not the
mouth yielded the prized whalebone.
Scarcely had the colonists of Massachusetts
planted themselves at Plymouth before its
bleak and rigorous climate and rough and
sterile soil forced them to resort to the sea
to .eke out their subsistence. The first per-
son that is recorded to have killed a whale
among the people of New England is one
Wm. Hamilton, somewhere between 1600
and 1070.
' ' NANTUCKET.
In 1702, as it appears on the town records
of Nantucket, an agreement was entered
into between James Loper and the settlers
there, "to carry on a design of whale fish-
ery." The municipality and Loper became
a joint monopoly for the pursuit of whale
fishery. The agreement insured Loper one-
third of the profits, ten acres of land, and a
commonage for two cows, twenty sheep and
one horse, with necessary wood and water.
A fine of five shillings for each whale killed
was imposed upon all persons infringing
the monopély. Such an assumption and
grant by a small village was certainly a con-
tradiction of the character of the colony of
Rhode Island, if not of Massachusetts.
Holland had at this time about 200 whaling
ships, England 100. The latter paid six shil-
lings a ton bounty on oil taken by her. own
fishermen, and was favorable to the pursuit
in her own colonies, oil being in much de~
mud—Boston Transcript.

“nuts” vs. Temperance.
“I am a temperance man; but they make
too muchado about liquor.”
The effort should be in proportion to the
evil inflicted on the country. The figures
and facts from the Treasury department for
the year ending June 301b, 1871, present the
following facts :, Liquors imported, value,
$70,005,498; domestic distilled, $360,119,-
082; fermented, $168,000,000; total value
$010,814,490. There is besides about as
much smuggled, probably, as is used for
lawful and laudable purposes in the arts.
Isthere too much ado to abolish this im-
mense traffic, with all its terrible conse-
quences. which are simply incalculahle.
“I am a temperance man, but—there are
some imprudent men connected 'ith the
reformation. "
Do you keep clear of civil institutions be-
cause there are imprudent persons connect-
ed with them? Do you forsake the
church because there are imprudent mem-
bers ?
“I am a temperance man,but-—do not op-
pose wine and beer." A
One of these makes a “moeker’-’ out of
men and women of some standing, and pre-
pares them and their children to love strong
drink. The other is avery prevailing cause
of intoxication among the lower German-‘15
and leads to the use of stronger drinks; yet
you profess to be a temperance man and
sustain their use. Paul would not drink
wine if thereby he made his brother stum-
ble or give ofi'ence. g:
“I am a 'temperancc man, but—I like to
sell my grain and rent my house whercI
can get the best prices."
Your temperance is neither benevolent,
noa genuine, nor Christian, Selfisbuess is
at the bottom, and you withhold your in-
fluence to remove “the curse of the coun-
‘ry'lf
“I am a temperance man, but—l wish the
Opportunity .to take a little occasionally.” ,
Temperance and abstinence are words of
the same import when applied to objects
that are not neCessary for nourishment.
Intoxication drinks are declared by the
highest medical authority to be poisonous,
and yet, like other poisons, may be occa-
sionally medical; and only as medicine
should they be used—Presbyterian Banner.
A FEARFCL Vinson—The Paris Soir re-
lates the following-story :—-“A Madam Bon-
iieau, liviugiu the Rue Descartes, was sit-
'ting_in her parlor a. few days since, await-
ing her husband’s return to dinner, when a
man of wild and haggard appearance-enter-
ed, and, setting down opposite to her, ad-
dressed her in the following terms :—“I am
a’great doctor. I can effectually cure all
headaches. I have heard that you suffer
from that cause and .I am come to cure you.”
with amadman, prudently seemed to fall
into his humor, and asked what was his
method of treatment. “Simple enough,
madam," he drawing a razor from his
pocket. _ “I cut off the head, and then, after
well cleaning it, I replace it upon the
shoulders." Upon this he prepared to suit
the action to his words. Madam .Bouneau,
with great coolness, professed her readiness
to submit to the operation, but suggested
that she should fetch a towel from the next
room to prevent her dress being stained.
Her visitor assented to the reasonableness
of this suggestion, and she left the room,
locking the door behind her. Upon bar‘re-
turn with some police-ofiicers they found
that the unfortunate maniac had cut his
ownthroat, but not fatally. It was ascer-
tained that he had escaped hum a lunatic
assylum at Clermont les Pres, and had been
vainly sought for during a whole month.’
To keep warm on a cold day the women

Many of the churches in Philadelphia are
being visited with unusual awakeniugs and
ingathcrings. '
It is reported that a son of Brigham
Young is going to marry a newly-establish-
ed female seminary.
Last week a ti er, who had just been ini-
portcd to New ’ork, escaped as he was
being lauded from the ship. He sprang
upon adray horse and began a course of
"hippophagy," which was interrupted by a
bullet from a policeman’s pistol. That put
an end to the tiger and to the tragedy.

A'ronons'ro, jun.» ’
Last Saturday a gentleman living near
Madison station, on the Memphis and Little
Rock road, left his home to go to the village.
He had not proceeded more than two hun-
dred yards, mounted on Miami descendant
of Balan‘nt’e ass, when he encountered a
great, greasy, black hear. The hetir was
astonished, and ' without taking tim! to
think, hurried up a scaly-bark hickory, and
seated himself very comfortably on a limb
thirty or forty feet from the ground. The
former was completely puzzled. If he rode
back to his house to get hisgun the bear
would surely escape. He therefore tied the
mple, a long-cared, melancholy mule, forty
or fifty years of age, to the body of the tree.
The male was bridlcwise, but no bridle
would hold, so-a strong leathern cable was
kept coiled about his neck. With this he
was fastened to a tree. The farmer started
to the house, and Bruin, diviping his plans,
decmedit proper to get away. He doubt-
less suspected that a gun was coming. He
came slowly down, tearing the bark from
'the body of the tree. It rattled about the
sleepy mule’s head, who had 'not yet seen
the bear, and dreamed not of the proximity
of the ugly beast. The bear descended
slowly, till he was within five feet of the
mule’s great, ugly head. 'Then it was that
the 'stupid, innocent, unsuspecting mule
looked up. He had never seen a hear be-
fore. His knees smote one another. He
grew pale in the face. His eyes were pro-
jected from his head—the farmer said—half
a foot. His tail was slowly lifted, the hairs
all turned awry, till it stood at an angle of
forty-five degrees above his spinal column,
and then it was that the mule “heaved a
sigh and smole a smile." It was an up
earthly sound ; the farmer, fifty yards away,
says it shook the ground where he stood,
watching the progress of events. The bear
suddenly twisted itself about and reasccnded
to its perch. The mule swooningly 'fell at
the base ofthe tree. He lay still and ap-
parently lifeless for a time, when Bruiu
again attempted the descent; but the terrifi-
ed mule howled and roared'eve'n more ter-
ribly and piteously when the bark began to
fall,aud he dashed and danced about the
tree so frantically that Bruin hesitated, ' and
finally in stupefied amazement sat upon the
limb upon which he first rested. The far-
mer came with his rifle, and a bullet soon
stopped the pulse beats of the bear. It fell
heavily beside the mule, and strange to tell, .
as told to us, the mule and bear died side
by side—the one of a mortal wound, the
other of mortal terror. The hear was still
black as Erebus, the mule’s face was al-
ready white with an indescribable agony of
mortal fear. ——Memphi‘s Appeal.
A Mouser MAN Conusan.-—The New
York correspondent of the Chicago Tribune
tells a capital story upon the poet Whittier,
who is as modest as he is gifted. He was
in the city not long since, and went to hear
the Rev. E. H. Chapin speak a lecture some-
where uptown. The clergyman was clo-
qucnt as usual; his discourse, interlarded
with highly wrought passages of rhetoric,
clooiug with a stirring poetical quotation,
so well delivered that the Quaker bard ap-
plauded with the rest. . '
Some one sitting next to him inquired,
“Do you know Mr. Whittier, who is the au-
thor of that extract i", ‘ ‘
“N o; I do not. It sounds familiar, and I
like the sentiment." ' '
“Why, the lines are yours, Mr. Whittier.
'You must remember them. They are from
your famous anti-slavery odes.”
“So they are,” said Whittier, after a little
4 reflection, and blushing like a school girl
caught reading her first love-letter. “I really
did not recall them. Indeed, they sound so
much better than they ever sounded before,
that it is not strange I failed 'to recognize
them.” I
The poet, though thoroughly sincere, did
not recover for some time from the embar-
rassment of outwardly acclaiming his own
composition; but now has come to regard
it as so good a joke that he hells it of him
self. . A
Alcohol in Medical Practice.
It is time that plain words were spoken
on the reckless useeof alcohol by many
physicians. It begins to be one of the
great evils under which humanity sufi‘ers.
The soothing of a patient is so large a puff
ofmedical practice that doctors are under
strong temptation to prescribe whatever is
availzible for the production of anesthesia.
Of late, alcohol has become a trusted agent
for this purpose. It effects a brief respite
from the depression which is an accompani-
ment of disease, and gives to the patient a
delusive sensation of improvement. We do
not doubt that in some diseases, alcoholic
stimulants can be made useful—especially
when tailing nature .needs a brief 'yet
powerful support. But the reckless pre-
scription of the strongest, spirits, for ailments
ofalmost every kind it is to be feared, is
breeding intemperance at a very rapid rate.
Alcohol does not prevent the waste, of
tissue; what, therefore, can be its use in
consumption, we have always been at a
loss to perceive. The experience of intcm-
peratc men has proved that it promotes the
degeneration of tissue, and consequent
bodily decay. It would seem, therefore, to
our unprofessional judgment to be the very
remedy not to be given‘ to a consumptive
patient. In low fevers it may render a
certain service. But the habit of plying
convalescents with alcohol as a tonic is, in
many cases, attended with ruinous effects
upon the whole Of the after-life.
The tonics which nature is unfailingly
supplying from her laboratory are always
.the best. There is no champagne so ex-
hilcrating as pure air, and no medication
so effective as the thorough oxygenation of
the blood. For this purpose, we are im- I
mcrsed in an ocean of oxygen, that Its
quickeuing power may perpetually renew
life in us. Physicians would in many in-
stances, deal more honestly with patients if
they were to prescribe an exact regimen
instead of alcoholic stimulants. The lead-
ing of so many members of society into in-
tcmpcrate habits will, in time, react upon
the profession, and discredit it before the
world —-—1T[cfltodzst.
Tim. RETURN OF THE ARMY THROUGH
Wumcrox—As in the tragedies after the
fall of the hero came the flourish of trump-
ets and the entry of the forces, so after Lin-
coln had gone from Washington came in
the victorious soldiers. It seems to me no
such touching pageant was ever seen. There
was not aregiment with half its comple-
ment of men. There was scarcely an oili-
ccr or a soldier with a full uniform. There
was scarcely a banner but what was black-
ened with smoke and riddled with the fiery
hail of the fight. Yet, as it marched past.
the reviewing Generals-past Grant and
Sherman, and Stanton, and the representa-
tives of the Old World in gala dress—no
one doubted any more that this was the
greatest army that ever went to war. In
that colossal and inspiring picture of Kaul-
bach, which shows the legendary fight of
Attillathe Hun, or two fields and two con-
ests, the one between the soldiers striving
n a deadly combat on the turf, and the
other a shadowy battle set in the upper air,
among the ghosts of the heroes slain below,
so all hearts that day were divided in re-
verence and gratitude between our two
armies, the one on its way homeward
crowned with love and laurels, preparing
its now unselfish disarmament and its re-
turn to the peaceful interests of the country
it had saved, and the men of the other in-
visible forcq were in_ those wasted columns
who had gained their promotion on the
battle-field to a higher and wider sphere of
dut , fulfilling now the scheme of the Lord
of [Tests in some activity about the clouds.
Thus they passed on, the victors and the
martyrs, out of the army into peace, out of
sorrow into holy memories. And with the
sweet and thrilling sounds of the buglesi
and the rising dust of the columns smitten
into golden glory by 'the sun rising over
Georgetown nights, passed away_ihe heroic
ace {from Washingtonrommre by John
as. ’
