There are always on a galley ain little pests, which are the tormeric cf the lubabitants; Fiiss ecercise their empire by day, bigs by night, fleas and lice by day end night, Whatever pre- cantion may bo taken, one can not suc- cocd in getiing free from these apnoy- ances. The frightful varmin do not re- spect even Cardinals, ambassidors or crowned keads. With respect to the size of the ga'leye, the largest of those in the elxt:cnth and eoventeenth centuries had a length of about forty-reven to fifty-five metres in width. They were of very lght draught, and consequently shalluw; were moved by fifty oars of twelvs meters in length, and cairied a crew in all of about 400 men in that circam- scribed space. Here is the testimony of Jean Mar- seille de Bergerac, who in 1701 was con- dembed to serve in the French galleys for the crime of being a Protestant, and therefore speaks from a bitter cxpertencs of many years: “All’the convicts are chained to bench- es, six to each. Theie are four feat from each other, and are covered with a sack stoffed with wool, over which is thrown a theepskia thai descends to the footrest, Thc comite, that is the master of the chain-ginz, s'asds at the stera, near the captain, to receive hls crders, There are tso sout-comites— one in the mildle, the other at the prow.

Oa such ccoaslons the comite would thrast a plece cf braad soaked in wine into the mouthas of the poor oarsmen to prevent thefr fainting. Then the captsin wou'd command the comite to redcuble his blows, 1f one of the pcor wretchen foll cxhaasted over his car, which frequently happened, he was flogged until he was supposed to be dead, and 1lien ceet Into the eea without cere mony.” What an ides of human miecry snd suffering does the foregoiny pictare con- vey!
