Longer than in Southern skies;

Frown o'er watery solitudes."

ADVERTISEMENT.

THE following irregular sketches of wild expeditions, now loosely thrown together, were begun in the year 1841. They were penned just as they occurred, often at long intervals. Those which were thought likely to be of more general interest have been selected from among many others.

The Author has also derived pleasure from noting down any incidents in natural history which engaged his attention, and recommends the practice to all those who may enjoy the same opportunities for observing them.
