Ouee when the was stove in by a sweep of the awful flukes in the death-flurry, one of the boys was crushed by the blow and driven senseless under the water. When Chips came to the surface he counted the heads and misled one, and down i« the bloody lwtne he wont among the sltsrks and fished tip the sinking body. He was a mighty swimmer, and, with only an oar to cling to, he held the senseless man out of water from noun till sunset. But, to the story; The Gazelle had been cruising for three months a few hundred miles off the coast of Western Australia—the great penal colony of Eng¬ land.....and during that time had not fallen in with a single sperm whale. One raw afternoon, with a harsh breeze and a rising sen, at. last we heard the lor ig sing-song cry, from the mast head, " He blows! thcr re -blo-o-wn"’ Four times, at regular intervals of about then forty seconds, the cry w repeated; and he knew it was a sperm whale. It was about, 5 o'clock in th* evening when the first cry was heard, and the sun went down at 6:30, with scarcely five minutes of twilight. As a rule, on board of American whalers, when whales are Keen late in tho evening, t he boats are not sent down, unless circumstances, stick as weather, moonlight, and so on, art very favorable. In most cases the course of the whales and tho speed of their travel are carefnllv noted. When r.n s course „ a school v . of . sperm whales ,, will move at the rate of about six miles m. hour; when "feeding they keep on Inc same ‘ground not moving than a few miles a day When semi ate 1,1 fl ‘f ‘ ,v t n }“*• the ship » steered dur ug the night according to the observe tions, and rften finds the school m sight u» the morning, when the boats are at oneo sent down. i.his course was not followed on the evening in question. It was nota school we sm, but a " lone whale,” and one of extraordinatr size. The night promWd to be a rough one, and the whale’s mo fi..ns haa lost were himself strangely in unknown irregular, as if he an sea.

A “heave, oh:” at, d a tdraleiug sound, and in one min utc tho four boots struck the water, and .the men were settled on foe thwarts with tlio long oars out. The sun was low and large and red, and the whole western sea and sky were maguifioent- in crimson and gold and block. The picture was one at the finest I ever saw. The rising sea was jet black, except wliere if was' blood?; a broad road of crimson shfoamm-.d from the ship to the sun; the long IxkIv of tlie whale, even blacker than the sen, was plainly seen in the ruddy glare; and life was added to the iiuiuenae wcone by the four white sjH-cks—tho whaleboats— motiofoesa doting to a point os they J drew near the monster.
