The captain says the crew took to the boats. 'His boat capsized, but four men, himself among them, held to the keel. Gradu- ally the others dropped off exhausted. He was rescued, after being seventeen hours in the water in a heavy gale. There has, been no sign of the other boat - Marble Ponds of Persia. That beautiful transparent stone called Tabriz marble, much used in the burial places of Persia and in their grandest edifices, consists of petrified water of ponds in certain parts of the country. This petrifaction may be traced from its commencement to its termination; in one pal‘tthe water is clear, in a second it appears thicker and stagnant, in a third quite black. and in its last stage it is white like frost. When the operation is complete a stone thrown on its surface makes no impression, and one may walk over it without wetting one’s shoes. The substance thus produced is brittle and transparent, and sometimes richly striped with red, green and copper c01- or. So much is this marble, which may be cut into large slabs, lookfed' king, his (sons and persons especially privileged‘ are permitted'to take it.
