AMONG THE NEWFOUNDLAND SEAL tIUNTERS, r.Y FTIMFNE OLI.INS. t The Newfoundland sailing llaet, eon sitting of a number of ptbcl-plated steam ers and immeroira heavy huilt sailing vta- nels have recently taken their depiiit'iTc from the leading island ports for the northern ire-n >( s. As the opcralions of the hunters vary little from year to year, I shall trauscribe from my note book a record of an expedition made by mj'self to the cold and ghostly Hoes. The (-aplain of the— invited me to accompany him, and I at once proceeded t,r ((piip myself with the usual seal hunt er’s outfit. This consisted of heavy woolen clothes, seal-skin top boots, the legs be ing hairy and the feet dressed. These are called “ skin” bats by the sealers, and you wear in them two or three pairs of heavy stockings. I got a gaff, the chief weapon of the hunter ; this is a short 5vooden pole with a steel spike in one end. My belt and long sheath kaife, called “ sculping knife” by the hunters, and a large sealing gun completed my outfit. Besides the regular ship’s company the sealing crew consisted of over three hun dred men, all strapping fellows who .'-ing in the bitter cold, and pause before no danger if duty calls them. Under the colonial laws no vessel is allowed to de part for “ the ice” till after mid-March, because early in the month the ice is cov ered with “ cats,” or young seals, and the hunters cannot be restrained from killing them. Oar passage northward past the bare, grim cliffs ivas without adventure, and during the day the hunters told “ yarns” or sang chorus songs till the sides of the ship rang again. The forecastle conld hold only a few besides the regular ship’s crew ana the hunters congregated in the hold where they ate and slept. About the middle of the fourth day out we had got well north of the island and the -wind fell. Up to this point we had seen no ice, but now the lookout at the cross trees reported a large floe bounding the view from east to west. The captain rubbed his hands and said that he had ex- lected this. Shortly after this the wind and veered round to the south. It will be a dirty night,” the captain said, and the wind, as he had predicted, rose with great suddenness. About sunset the sea ran very high and one wave swept the deck carrying two of the hunters over board. How manfully, but bow vainly, they struck out for the ship ! One became lost in the gloom, but the other went down with his arm raised appealingly. The dark came almost at a stride after sunset, and half a mile before us lay the dim white stretch of Arctic ice. Many pairs of trained eyes -were in the cross-trees looking for the best place to enter. As we drew near we could distinguish several bergs near the edge of the floe and they reeled like tipsy giants. The cubes ex posed to the sea were tossed like reeds. The thunder of the sea and the rumbling and grinding of the ice were awful sounds. Steam was slacked, several swift, sure di rections were given through the speaking- trumpet and the great steel-wedged prow was at the edge of the ice. Then the ship shuddered at every plank and limber ; paused, reeled from a blow dealt on her beam by an enormous ice-cube, then lunged ahead and again paused. “ The danger is over,” the captain said to some of us, ‘ * It was risky though!” Slowly but surely the steel prow felt its way through every joint and drift, and after an hour the tumult of struggling sea and ice was well behind us and the gale went shrieking harmlessly through the ice-sheathed spars and rigging. Oar railing was smashed, but that was a small penalty. I went asleep that night as content as if I were upon the firm land. And while \we slept the ship was mak ing her way toward the heart of the floe. I was awakened in the eirly dawn by much bustle and shouting on deck, and when I put my head up I heard such ex pressions as these ; “ There’s more swiles (sealf) there !” “ There’s another bunch yonder !” “ The ice be crawlin’ with ’em !” Mounting into the cross-trees I got a good view with my field glass. And it was just as the hunters bad said. A1 most everywhere I looked I saw a covey of white coat seals, some of them lying about, others dragging themselves from pan to pan. They were disposed mostly in family groups and some of them were engaged in the harmless occupation, ap parently, of sucking little spurs of ice. Where the enormous <• mgregation of ani mals got breakfast upon this compact 11 )e was a puzzle that I could not solve. When the hunters began to pour out on the ice the sun was just rising. For my self, I had first to gaze upon the wonder ful siilendor produced by the level rays the floe. From the ship to the hori zon there was a great path ot quivering fire through which shimmered long lances of scarlet lUme. The summits of the neighboring bergs fairly flamed in golden fire, and innumerable wings hovered about the gleaming lops. The huatere took with them only their gaffs, I took my gaff and set out, accom panied by a hunter who kindly volun teered to break me in. R< und about me everywhere I saw gaffs uplifted and tlt- ecending, and tlien a red spot on the blue- white ice. “ Over here,” the hunter said, pointing to a pan, or ice-cake, where half a dozen white coats lay basking in the light. As we drew near the old ones be gan to squirm away, but the young ones turned upon their backs like puppies, their flippers pointing upward. There is a common belief among the hunters that the young seals literally weep when the I unter, with his murderous weapon, slanils among them ; and I can say that the great, sofi, liiraini ms eyes of the pretty cr(*ati,res were moist as they looke 1 at in I had not Ih- In art to strike, but the limitt r’s gulT c jinc do.vu with diadly foil (• upon the head of each in turn. He first despatchftl those who were trying to escape, then Hllcil the young ones. Hav ing d.ir.i' this he unsb-athed his knife, bidding me note his method. Then he optned the animal down the belly, cutting through the heavy coaling of “ blu'ober,” or fat, till he reached the lean ; cut it round at the throat and at Ihc tail, and then he stripped off the entire pelt. This he did to each in a space almost as brief as it takes to relate it in. I lost my tend er-heartedness pretty soon, and when we went away, looking for another covey, I was keen to kill a .d “ skulp” for myself. The three hundred and odd men had soon scattered everywhere around the ship within a radius of a mile, and by noon there was not a live seal witbia that space. The glare from the ice was very painful to the unprotected eye, but some of us had smoked glasses. My companion remained with me and we came upon several other groups of seals. Before I returned to the ship my gaff was as merciless and as sure as any, and I killed and “ skulped” for my first day no less than fifteen seals. At two o’clock I was “ foundered,” owing to the peculiar step one has to adopt walking over the slippery ice. The laborous part of a seal hunter’s work is not the slaughter, but collecting the pelts. If the ice is not too close, the steamer pushes her way from heap to neap ; but this fl5e was so compact about three miles in from the open sea that the hunters had to drag the pelts even on the first day a distance of nearly two miles. In the evening there was scarcely a man whose shoulder was not bleeding from the strain of the tow-rope. We discovered the next day that there were other vessels in the floe, and this made it necessary to put a miniature flag w ith our ship’s colors over each of our heaps of pelts that were not dragged to the ship. I think we were about a week in the floe when the captain announced that if we had all our pelts on board we should be loaded. He had taken a tale and found that about twenty-eight thous and seals had been killed by our gaffs. During the next week the hunters were employed entirely in dragging the pelts to the ship. Meanwhile I would sally abroad with my gun, shooting the guillemot and cor morants that rousted on the bergs. One day I came to a lake in the ice and found it literally full of seals. They all went down at my approach, but soon bobbed up again. I know that it was cruelty, bu ll loaded and fired till I saw about a score of fine seals lying dead in the lake. What interested me as much as any thing were the ice foxes, creatures white as snow and very fl-et of foot, which went about the ice feasting on the car cases of the seals. I shot two of them and found the fur to be very fine and thick. When at last our ship was loaded every heart was glad, but there was grievous labor in sawing and chopping before the ship could make a move. Neverthelees, at the expiry of the three iveeks after our entry into the tlae we were again in the open sea. The men were obliged to sleep on the pelts in the hold, their clothing and blankets soaked with^sesl oil. To add to the inconvenience, we had to lake on board fifty men whose schooner had been crushed in the ice a few miles away. About a third of the value of a cargo of seals goes to the hunters, the owners of the ship getting the remainder. Our cargo of pelts would fetch about $120,000 Numbers of men around the coast depend upon the spring seal catch for much of their year’s earnings.—W. T, IndeiiemUnt LITTLE PIERRE. In a humble room, in one of the poorest streets of London, Pierre, a fatherless Frei ch boy, sat humming by the bedside of his sick mother. There was no bread in the closet, and for the whole day he had not tasted food. Yet he sat humming to keep up his spirits. Still, at times, he thought of his loneliness and hunger, and he con’d scarcely keep the tears from bis eyes ; for he knew nothing would be so grateful to his poor, invalid mother as a good, sweet orange, and yet he had not a penny in the world. The little song he was singing was his own, one he had composed with air and words ; for the child was a genius. He went to the window, and, looking out, saw a man putting up a great bill ■with yellow letters, announcing that Madame Malibran would sing that night in public. “ Oh, it I could only go !” thought lit tle Pierre ; and then, pausing a moment, he clasped his hands, his eyes lighted with a new hope. Running to the little Stand he smoothed down his yellow curls, and, taking from a little box some old Stained paper, gave one eager glance at his mother, who slept, and ran speedily from the house. “ Who did you say is waiting for me ?” said madame to her servant. ” I am al ready worn out -with comp my.” “ It is only a very pretty little boy with yellow curls, who says if he can just sec you, he is sure you will not be sorry, and he will not keip you a moment.” “ Oh, well, let him come !” said the beautiful singer, with a smile. “ I can never refuse children.” Lillie Pierre c.ame in, his hat under his vmg and make a r arm, and in his hand a little roll o f paper. W ith manliness unusual for a child, hr w a lked straight to the lady, and, bnwirg. Slid : “ I came to see you, becfiuse my mother is very Mck. .and we are ton pom to pet food and medicine. I thought that, perhaps, i f you would only sing m y little song at some of your grand concerts, maybe some publisher would buy it for a sm,all sum ; and so I could get fond and medicine for m y m other.” The beautiful woman rose from her seat. Very tall and stately she was. She took the roll from his hand, and lightly hummed the air. “ Did you co.xpose it? ' she asked, “ you a little child! And the words? would you like to come to my concert ?” she asked. • “ Oh, yes!\ and the b)y’s eyes grew bright with happiness ; “ but I couldn’t leave my mother.” “ I will send somebody to take care of vour mother for the evening. And here is a crown, with which you may go and get food and medicine. Here is, also, one of my tickets. Come to-night ; that will admit you to a seat near me.” Almost beside himself with joy, Pierre bought some oranges, and many a littk- luxury besides, and carried them home to the poor invalid, telling her, not without tears, of his good fortune. When evening came, and Pierre was admitted to the concert hall, he felt that never in his life had he been in so grand a place. The'music, the myriad, lights, the beauty, the flashing of diamonds and rustling of silk, bewildered his eyes and At last she came, and the child sat with his glance riveted on her glorious face. Could he believe that the grand lady, all blazing with jewels, and whom everybody seemed to worship, would really sing his little song ? Breathless, he waited. The band, the whole band, struck up a little plaintive melody. He knew it, and clapped his hands for joy. And, oh how she sang i t ! It was so simple, so mournful. Many bright eye dimmed with tears ; and naught could be heard but the touching words of that little song—oh, so touching ! Pierre walked home as if he were walk ing on the air. What cared he for money now ? The greatest singer in all Europe had sung his little song, and thousands had wept at his grief. The next day he was surprised by a visit from Madame Malibran, She laid her hand on his yellow curls, and, turning to the sick woman, said : “ Your little boy, madame, has brought you a fortune. I was offered this morning, by the best publisher in London, £300 for Ms little song ! and, after he has realized a certain amount from the sale, little Pierre here is to share the profits, Madame, thank God that your son has a gift from Heaven !” The noble-hearted singer and the woman wept together. As to Pierre, always mindful of Him who watches over the tried and tempted, he knelt down by his mother’s bedside, and uttered a simple but eloquent prayer, asking God’s blessing on the kind lady who had deigned to notice their ailliction. The memory of that prayer made the singer even more tender-hearted, and she who was the idol of England’s nobility went about doing good. And, m her early, happy death, he who stood by her bed and smoothed her pillow, and light ened her last moments by his undying affection, was little Pierre 6f former days —now rich, accomplished, and one of the most talented composers of the day.
