They lolsurely walked along on tholr courso until nearly” nightfull, whon it wns proposed thoy should msl. On oponing thoir sncks and spreading thelr blankots on_tho fee, 1t wos discovorod that bub threo of them had any food whatover, and thoso throo Iiad but about four pounds of brond and paund and o Lalf of bolled boef botween them. Howevor thoy divided up their stock nod made n tolorable monl, oxpocting to roach their dostination noxt morning, What waa loft of tho ropnst, consint- ingof aslicc of mont, half an inch thick and about tho sizo of n mon's hand, and two small loaves, wero gathered |l‘p, and the four walked onthoelr journcy, tho night being clear gnd tho wanther calm. ~ Toward marning, howevor, one of thom, Goorgo Fishor, gave out, and thoy concluded to take n rest, and, after conversing awhile, fell asloap. Whon thoy awoke the sun was shining bright- l{", but thore was cousiderable wiyd blowing, nnd tho air was_plercingly cold. TFisher continuing to ovinco sigus of ilinoss, the party resolved to retraco their stops, but on walking northward for somo miles, to thelr uttor nstonishment and dismny, thoy discovered that the ice-cale on which they were wan surrounded by opon water on all sidos; in fact, that they wore on an isiand of ico, somo ton miles in ciroumforotice, ns nonr an thoy could }udgo.

He suggested that, s thero woro four of them in a bad sorape, it would be right and proper that tho bread and ment should bo divided into four oqual parts, ‘aud that then each men should pubdivide his allowancsinto six portions, which, If thoyused but one portion n day, would sustnin lifo for nearly & week. Iliy argumont told on his companioiw in distress, aud thoy noquiescod, The bread and meat were thorefore cut into four parts, and then onch sop- arated lis shere into moioties.. By mutual con- gont, they resolved not to eat anything until noxt morning; and sorrowfully tlmg wpread their blankots on tho cold ico and laid down., Worn out with cold, hunger and fatigue, thoy soon fell into nsound elumbor, from which they wero aroused about daylight by tho thunder-like sound caused by tho cracking of the ico.t About 8 oclook &. m,, this being tho third day thoy woro qut, they ate their * breakfast” in si- lence, tho meal cousisting of about a mouthful of brond and o piceo of boof about the size of & 10 cont pieco and as thin as o wafer. Their feol- ings, as thoy gazed ab each othor, crn bettor bo imogined than described. They obsorved, on closo inopoction, that the mags of ico on which thoy were was being movad northweatardly, and t]\l:fl" hopos rovived. It was likewise gotting coldor, and thoy began o feel mesurcd thie opon apace between them and tho main body of the lco would soon frooze ovor. DBut those Lopes woro of short duration, for, during the appronch of night, tho wind veorcd round and blow thoir island wostword, Thoy wero Btrong-hearted men, though, and Tishor, who lad bocomo rosted, and_whose fever had left him, oheered ihem on and routiod thom uF.
