While spending a few weeks shoot ing in Labrador early in ft ret cnl autumn, 1 had mi adventure, which Wits so singular llnit I am suit the like of il hn in ver eoiuo within the exper ionec of any one else. I was living at the house of a liher mnn w ho had a little, hut among tin' rock :H the fool of a great dill. From lliis place I could pa, at low tide, to I In- oat or west of Hie culture for a considerable dililieo along the crusl. The roai was a series of bights or fovea, all open to the ocean, lint nearly every one shellrrel at the side by a Iop reef of rocks which ran far out into I ho sea. The point always protected the cave, and inailc i' smooth when the winil blew up or eluw n the roast. Muring siicli a gale myriad of sen binls seek the sheltered sido of the leef ami iliee for small univalves which eliny; to the ruck4. die morning I took in y dog to n cove which I knew woulil contain many sra li Is. Il was unrounded, nave for tin- front, by high t lift's mol nt one t-itlf a high ridge of rock ran out i in o Ihi! H'j. It was blowing a pale, niul t liri u-r s of ilucks flouted un der I ho Ice shle of Ihi point , a the Wilier there wa Mllooth. I lay en one of the thrive i f tiiis reef. I noli, i ll licit a coii-lanl Mioam of foam passed across from the xvindw aid side of the point, w lu re the ea was rhnliiig mid burning f i y n i 1 1 -1 the rocks, In the lilllo nip shaped cave beyond. lil'cut masses of this foam, lighter than thistledown, hail already gath tied in ihi- shi' 1 1 r ; n ml as a Haw from the pale loin Ih iI il, the ina-s iuiveinl from f ml to eiiil. What a mass il was! I could hard ly believe my eyes as I stood among the lock- ami looked access at il. Il wii- probably about an acre and a half in urea, and how deep I could not h il, though I iv;i sure that it must have been forty feet deep weil back in the rove, and not less than ten feet any where. The mas was not white, but yel lowish, though whenever the sun biir-l through the si-iidding clouds the bubble- all along the lop glrainod in rainbow i oh rs. Siill more foam mine drilling across the reef, settling on tiie top urn) lolling iilonu to timl a level. 1'ieat m.i-ses of foam like ihi' are vciy common in tho far north. J In y disappear in a f w Imui s alter I In storm w hich causes them, h living nothing but BvSoft, greasy paste on tie" rocks. It was pretty generally ho lievcd at one time that iii 'itm haum or na foam pipes were made from Ihi inalli r. This preat, unstable, iUiverinc; iiuiss bad an unaccountable la-.e iiiation for me. 1 was seied w ith a stronp de. sire to go down and into it; and that whs just what I did, leaving my dofj beside my gnu on a small patch of sand. Now as I have said, the eovo into which this froth was heaped was rinsed round w iih straiphl clill except for a lilllti opening in front through which tktt sea ran gurgling i i a narrow ehan Del. I had to jump arrosslhU chan nel; and then I found eight or leu square feet of bare beat Ii, from which the foam ran slantingly backward. The bubbhs w ere of ail sie, some of them being no larger that a grain of (hot, some of them imue than an inch in diameter. Tim dog jumped acro-s to w here I stood and looked into my face, won dering what I was about. I ordered him back, and lie tinned away very unwillingly. 1 first tin iit my bands mid arms into the heap, and it became nothing in my grasp, (ifrouisoall the bub bles had air in thrm, and I was sure that I ran no ri-k of sutl'icalion in plunging into the mass. linking my head I went in, under a mass fully 10 feet, high, mh inn ing carefully lest there should be holes or locks in the way. It seemed to me as if I was moving tho whole mas in the rove, and very likelv 1 was. I put the bubbles aw.iv front m face, ami opened my eyes; before the foam closed dow n again I no iced a faint light Hut my attempt at bitath- : iv. .:..! haled a number of buhl les went into my mouth and br 'ke there, but lie) air Ihey contained was pure, and wout into my lungs. 1 then found it best to hold my hand across my in mill, straining the air Iti tween my lingers. As 1 drew in my breath many bubbles pressed agains1 my hand, and I could feel the tiny, soft i!oiou. I had walked thirty or forty pare w hen I shouted again and again. My vo'n e seemed very low, but I could hear a million bubbles ipiivei ing round me ami above me. Whenever J was sure the ground wa level I walkid on rapidly, dinging my anus about me. liul in spite of the air in the bub ble-, the Seii-ations I cvpel ienced weie j not agreeable, and a dull pain value into lay head. The light 1 had noticed j on op 'iiing my cscs was dimmer, mid , I supposed I w.h near the elill at the back of the cove. S I turned about logo bai k, having ha I my verv novel experience, ami taking, as near a I could judge, the w ay by which I had c mie. Walking as rapidly as po.ible for three or four minutes, 1 suppi-ed that I must he clo-e to ,hi: spot where I had entered. Hut evidently I was not, for the hard face! of the clill' slopped me. T'ie.11 I turned and walked along the edge of the cliir tow ard the opening ; hut presently a great rock rose in iny way. In iny coiifuioii and groping to feel for the t lit! I inhaled uiiiuerous bubbles, so that a salt, slim paste be gan I j f i m in my inoii:!i. It did not lake me long to icalii: thai I hail lo-! my w,n, and licit mv predicament u ,i one not to be envied. So, with my h ft hand over my mouth and my light baud extended, I crossed ami nn ed in every direction that I thong! lil.eiy to bring me out. Several limes I fell by Mumbling again! large ioins. ami my knees ami arm w en- badly brui-ed. The pain in my head, in" inlime, grew mils', and there was a strange buz zing in iny ears. Alter I had been in the place about fifteen iiiiuiilcs, the weariness grew so great that I w as obliged to sit upon a stone. I now thra-hed tin: picking bubbles from my face with both my Inn d- and found some relief in the larger cpianlity of air that I was able to inhale. Hut how was I to gel out of ii Ii was niily too lei laiu that il 1 found the pin e of egre-s il nil I only be by no Mi nt. What were they saying, .ill those tluui-ands of bubbles, thil pressed around and above me, so soli, so eva sive, but so per.iistenl and -o iiuiuer uih? l orlheie i aim' into my cars the sliaimest din of small .sounds that the car of mortal i m i heard. Sometime it wa- liios the cr ing 1 1 1 1 1 -1 1 ' that you hear in a sea shell; again, it teemed as il a inyii.nl voices wile whispering mm hcrii in n -ent-mil. of my int i ii-ioti upon their iloiuaiii.

Though my srne wero In coining dull and beniiuibcd. and it was very clear to me that my situation was serious.

The most e.xpen-ive iiisiruuu nt of the early miner was the locker, whirh, though Mtnple in eoiistrurt ion, co-ts in the mines from lifty loom: hundred dollars. In general appearance it was not unlike a babv 's cradle a wed by our grandmothers and still seen on the frontier. It consisted of a tl.it bottom with two sides that lined out ward, niul an c ud hoard at the head, w iiih: the foot was open save a ritlle aboi.t an inch an I a half highal I'm bottom to call h tin' gold that might pass another r.tll" across the bottom near the middle. At the head of the cradle vni a hopper ah ul eighteen inches square, w ith a perforated sln-i t iron bottom or wire screen. I mlei Ihi was an apron, or board, sloping downward lowaids li.c head. 'I wo substantial rocker under the whole completed the -imp e machine which gave to the woild million of dollars.

When ihe earth wa thorough ly washed, he rose, lif ed the boppri from it place, threw mil lh'' stones and gravel, re pi a ed it. and thu the work went on.
