White Island derives Its name from the clouds of white steam in which It appears to be continually, enve'oped. Its area is only 600 acrei,' and Its height .about S0 feet above the Boa level. In form and color it Is like a re posing camel, while Its Interior with its gray, weather-beaten, almost per pendicular cliffs, recalls the Coliseum at Rome. Overhanging the southern landing place standx a column of rock closely resembling a sentinel, which has been dedicated to the memory of Captain Cook. The water of the inland Is of a pale green hue. ajid anything dipped Into it becomes of a red brick color. The fumes of sulphur are al ways plainly perceptible. On a fine moonlight night a wonder ful sight is afforded to any one who will sit in an open bnat'ln one of the lakes of the island. Covering an area of fifty acres is an immense caldron, hissing and snorting and sending forth volumes of polsunoun steam, while all chances of egress appear to ihe denied by the steep, silent and gloomy cliffs.
