A Shrewd Austrian Professor Crows Thorn Artificially. Ia the Tunisian waters of tho coast of Africa the pone fidicry is cartied o most actively and profitably during th moaths of l);cember, Jaouiry and Feb ruary., Tuo lato autumnal atorm hav by that lirr.o cleared tha sponges of thv seaweed and other plants which coa Crtlsd them. It is considered, calm weather and a transparent sea bein io dispensable, thit not more than forty five dayt caa bo counted uKa each sea- aon. Tho men employed ia tha Tunis- in sponge -fidicry are almost exclusively Greeks or Bici iino, and tho former are found lho more tki'.fu'. Thero are sev eral modes of collecting sponges. They are plucked with tho hand by help of a diving bell, they aro harpooned, or they ero dragged up with an instrument which resembles tho sort of drag mcd whero there is a hard bottom, and the harpoon it tho instrument mainly ere- ployed by apoagc-fi.hcrs. 1 lift Aral., Aiil in nurlloa nf il v..

Oco man holds the strident and watches tho bottem of the 'sea, striking where ho sees a sponge: lut tin Arabs arc rarely successful ia a depth of more than ei ht or li mofrM Th method of the Sicilians is almost tha same ai that of tho Arabs, except that their boats take only two men, ono to "row and the other to strike. Tin Sicidant fhh in deeper water than tho Arabs and secure moro sponges than thsy, and of a better quality. The Greeks who for the most part come from Ktiimno and Syria arc the chief employers ot tho drag. But tho great majority of these also hold to the trident which they use with extraordinary cleverness. Tho island of Kilimno, on tho south western coast of Ait Jliaor, between Cos and Loro, contains a population of about 12,009, all tho adult males being engaged ia tho sponge-fidicry. They leavo the island in JIy, and return ia September a the latest.
