On either side was the land. not in cliffs or in hills, hut in a low table- land. In one place a little cascade, ten or twenty feet high fell into the blue water, with a rainbow hanging over it, and in an- otherwe saw the remains of a rude log-house built out of boat planks. To this epot we steered, and landed on a point of gray sand, 1 up which we two men pulled the boat high and dry above the tide. There we «been- barkcd our young lady. The first: thing to do was to visit the loghonae. The door had fallen from its rude hinges, which had been of leather ; there had been a rough kind of window-shutter, which new lay on the ground ; and the roof, .which could never have been Weather tight, was built up with planks, of which half a dozen had been hlown ofi‘. We looked inside. 0n the floor lay a skeleton. Dressed in rough sailors 6.10m», the hands in glovee, the feel; in great hookâ€"a skeleton.

Then, in fine weather, Ben and I went fishing in the bayâ€"mot fit" from land ynn may be sure, because Helen begged us, with toms in her eyes, net to risk being carried out tn "a, and leaving her alone on the island. When we had luck we would bring home wnngh fish for dinner and breakfast, too. On melt days We were sparing with our stores. Then for dinner begidea the fish, we had sea-hirdu’eggw, ”mag in tmto but not an- wholes-01ml, hailed or fried ; and sometimes, to vary the diet, we knocked down the bird: themselves, and roasted them. For Rie- wond we had our little coppieo to cut and hack at. Our supper was the same as our dinner ; and m the evenings soon grow cold a eggs we tuok for our food. There was a sort of wuod in one place, the trees of which Were 30 l)l0\i'll down and beaten about by the wind that none of them were more than ten fcut high. while the branches were in- terlacud anzl mingled tuguthcr in inextric- alflu confusion.

We founu a‘bag of tools, part of the bequest of our poor Robinson Crusoe, which mile in handy, as you may believe; and on the fourth day we had as neat a house, twulve feet high, and in the inside fifteen by ten, as you could expect to find. There was but one room ; but we made two at. night byaeurtain made out of about sail. And when the house was finished. we sat down and asked ourselves, \Vhat next f" Miss l'llweod, while we were building, ex- plored the whole island. There was not much toexplore. It was, as near as we could make out, a mile long by half a mile broad. There were two springs in it, one of which formed the little steam which poured its water into the bay “lure we ‘ landed.
