Attas. “Notwithstanding the danger which I incur red from my former expedition to the Northern Ocean, I was perslladed to take th£ command of a whaler about td proceed to thebe latitudes: we'sailed from Marseilles early in the year that we might arrive at the northward iu good time, and be able to r)ult the Ftozen Ocean before the wiuter had aal in. We weffc serf fortunate on nUr arrival at Baffin’s Bay, arid very soon iiutl eighteeri fish on board. The autumn wst hardly commenced before I proposed to return and We were steering in a southerly direction, when we encountered (trio or three large ice. bergs, upou the edges df Bhich the walruses or sea-horses were lyiug in herds. As #e had koine casks still enirity, I determined to fill ihrim with tho oil to be obtained from these aftimals, and hoisted out my boat to attack them. We killed u large number^ which we sent on board, aud continued our fishery with grerii sticceri, having only lost one boet, the bottom plank of which had been bitten out b; the mike of one of these uriwieldly unimula. Of ri tuddhii the wind changed to the southward, arid the small iceboigs which wore then td windkrard rapidly closed with the large oue updh Which we werd fishing. The hurpooners Observed it, Olid te- conimetided mti to reibrh to the ship, blit l was so amused with the tport that I did obi heed their advice. A sea-horse was lying ih a small cave accidentally fortiicd oti tl>. upright edge of the iceberg, aud wishing to attack him, I. direc ted my boat to pull towaids it. At this time there was not more than twenty vnirda of water between tho two icebergi; arid H sudden squall coming on they cldied Wllii git-tit sapidity. The men iii the oilier boats immediately pulled away and; ax I afterwarlls learnt, when I arrived nt Marseilles, they escaped, tthtl returned bdlhe in the shipt but those in miue, who were intent upon watching ma, as 1 stood In the bow of the boat with tho harpoop to strike the animal, did not perceive the danger until the stern of the boat was touched by the other iceberg. The two now coming within the attraction of cobs* sinit of floatihg bodies, were dashed like light ningonc against the other; JantHiIng the nieb, il well ax the boat, iuto atoms. Being iii jhe bow of the boat, aHd hearing the crash) I had just time, in a momebi of despera. tion, to thlow myself intti the take dpon the back of tho sea horse, when thH two ehdrtnous bodies of ice came in contact—the oolse I have no doubt Was tremendoui; but I did hot hear it, as I was immediately encldSed in the Ice. Al though at firkt there werd interaiici, yet; ea the southerly gale blew the iceberg* before it into up Ih an apartment but eight feet square; in company With a sea-horsfei.- I shall not detain your Highness by descri bing my sensations: my idoui were; yiat I was to exist a certain iiine; and then die for want pf fresh air; but t was incdrrect. At flrit, indeed, the cave was intolerably hot from the accumu lation of breath, and 1 tnollght 1 should todn be suffocated. I recollected all thy pjUl sins, I implored for mercy, nod lay down to die; but I found thut the Ice melted eway with the beak, and that, in Sd doing, • cooildelable pOitiod Of tho air Was liberated; so that iu • ftw miridtec my reSlli/ation became more fired.
