It would, indeed, have been more prudent not to have sailed during the night, in this quite unknown sea; but as the necessity of reaching Kamtschatka as soon as possible, obliged us to hasten, we sailed rapidly forwards, under the protection of God. A sailor was constantly obliged to keep watch at the mast-head, who was relieved every hour, and punished severely if another discovered a dangerous object before him. In the night, the watch was

He then proceeded to relate his story and reply to my questions; but, in so contradictory a manner, and with so much hesitation and prevarication, that I failed in my endeavours to obtain from him the truth.

in such cases, theologians apply the term Conscience, and others, the Moral Sense. The question, then, What is Duty? in reference to its rules or standard, is one of very difficult solution, or rather, is one which unassisted reason cannot resolve. If we take the question in detail, and ask, What will be acceptable to the Supreme ? the Hindoo devotee will say, to fall under the wheels of the moving temple of the god Juggernauth, and be crushed to death, or to drown himself in the Jumnah at its

By the Indians, the Ammonites sacer is considered as a metamorphosis of the god Vishnu, and termed by them salgram or salgraman. It is found among the pebbles pf the
