And yet, when we had left all land far astem, and found ourselves alone of the mighty Atlantic, I thought what a speck we ‘were upon that mighty expanse 0f water, So as I dwelled,upon those 1 T matters, 8 bells .was struck (meaning l ‘1 the change of watch at 8'o’clocks) and I from out of the foreoastl-e cam-e some of the, seamen, who were to be on duty till 12 o’clock, midnight.

As the Wa- ter is swirled over the deck, a sea- man draws the stone back and for- ward till every part of the deck has been gone over. When it dries, the cplanks have a decided white appear- ance. It is a yery important part of of the water over the decks, while every little while the hoarse shriek I l from the steamer’s whistle was heard ‘ all around, To crown all, everybody had the feeling that this was only the FIRST NIGHT OF THE VOYAGE - and the thought of, what would hap- pen Uefore port was reached. I must have been asleep for quite a long {spent as when} woke, the early sun- :light was glittering in the port hole above my head. The time by my ' watch was 5.30, and as I jumped out ' of the bunk‘ I found that the ship: . had a rather lively motion, which to ‘ the average landsman is kind of un~ pleasant, both as regards walking, and afiecting the appetite. Putting on my boots, I gota towel, and a: made my way on deck, where the r nipping cold air made me feel invig- a orated and sp;ry, as they say, and 8 also gave me a keen appetite for 3 o W“ breakfast, which would be served in the saloon at 6.30. I stood looking out over this is BROAD EXPANSE 0F WATERS, _- that seemed so cold and wintry n looking in the early morning light, 3‘ and noticed that the wind which had ' so far been blowing lightly upon the ship’s work, and is very neces- sary as regards all passenger ships, where cleanliness in all partsis of the utmost importance.

The fun is about to commence, I thought, as after washing I made my way below again, and finished dressing. Just then the bell was rung for breakfast, and there was a rush for the saloon. I found quite a number of passengers seated at the table, and they all apparently eager for the meal to commence. I made . ;my way to a vacant seat, -just as 3the stewards brought in the various dishes.- The keen morning air had somewhat sharpened our appetites, and-for some time full justice was done to the good things laid on the table.
