" Mount Hecla. on the island of locland is sligmly under a mile in height. l1 has lhree peaks a little elevated above its body, and alongjls sides are numerous cra- ters, the seats of former eruptions. The crater of lhe principal peak is about a hundred feet in depth. 11 "is composed chiefly of basalt and lava, but slag-sand and loose ashes cover a great part oi ils surface, and obsidian 131 among Ms most rev markable products. There have been forlv-three eru- ptions of Mount Hecle recorded wixhin the last lhousand years, five pf whipb have been ,sir'nuhaneous will) Vesuvius,'fum 0!

Mr, Carl Slinman visited Hecla iusl previous to this lérrific eruption and had one oflhe narrowest es- capes lroma horrible death lhal ever hefel adventurous man. \Ve give his narrative in almost his mvn words : ‘On the next morning after my arrival at the small village at the footol'the volcano, I engaged a gmdu, a faithful. honest fellow, and set out for a visit to the noted crater. ‘ From the very first it seemed as if I had passed the confines and was eniering a new world, so en. tirely different was the scenery. ‘ For six mortal hoursâ€"three on horseback and lhree on foot ~had I been clambering upward lrom the ‘ lower world, and now, among the ‘clouds and mists thalvrolled around me, I stood in a world of lava mountains, ice, and snow, the lava :as black as ink, .lhe snow at its dazzling whitenessâ€"and not in all the region lhc slightest brush, shrub, plant, or living creature ex- cept the guide and myself.‘ ‘ As you press upward towardl the focus oi'all this horror of burn- ing stufi. \ou find the peril, drearia: ness-, and desolation increase, un- til its awfulncss becomes sublime , and. at length, when you stand on the IODmosl point ol this burning world of chaos, you instinctively raise. your heart to God, with a shudder oi terror to restore you to the great living world that you have left behind you. ‘ As far as the eye could discarnl l when the sweeping clouds afforded a view, was a succession of dark hills, glistening glaciers. snow- capped peaks, and frozen streams 'â€"â€"-u world devoid ol lile the awful solitude of solitude itscllâ€"filled with gaping caverns, terrific abyss- les, and Slygian caves. which echo- 1ed only lhe sullen reverberations ol‘ lthunder or lhe groanings of the (troubled earlh beneath, Three wprds of Strength: ‘ So imnressive was the scenel that I lelt a strange chill creepingl through me, and [ shouted again to break the horrible stillness, which was more aye-inspiring tqanthe thunders of a thousand Niagaras.

' Occasionally l struckffragments of lava that rolled down behind me but'as yet discovered no signs of the crater, which eightv years be fore had vomited forth its tremend- ous volume 01 melted black sand. At length, however. I reached the summit, and looked 'down into a sort of basin, open at the lmver side, and having several deep scams or chasms in its centre. into which the melting snow and ice on its sides were running in small streams, A repulsive odor, in the shape of a thin, smoky Vapor, came up, and l fancied I heard a distant rumbl- lng noise that sounded far down in the earth. ‘I turned to my guide. and was about to speak, when I observed that he was trembling. and was as pale a; dealh. ' ‘ What's the matter ?’ I asked; ‘ you seem trightened.’ ‘ Oh, my God !' he gasped ‘ there's going to be another erup- tion.’ ‘ How do you know that! Have you ever been hergtbefore ?’ 'Yes; but! never saw it look like this. When] was here last there was no hollow there, but on- ly a levei piece of snow and ice. ‘lndeed!’ chclaimed, with im- :ense interest. and you judge that faclto be decisive as legards an eruption.” fi ‘ Oh, my master,’ said he. in the in the grealest agony, ‘ what else Could have cauded this change ?

You had better leave.’ 'I recalled that the last eruption of Hecla occurred eighty years be- fore, long previous to the birth at my guide, and consequently, he could know as little as l did. This foolish thought prevented me putt- ing the faith in his words that I ought to have done. ‘There is no hurry,’ [ replied; “ I have heat so long finding my way to the top, that I am hardly disposed to leave until I have segn l more of the volcano.’ ‘1 observed his paleness and trembling Increase, if possible, but stilll fell a reluctance to retreat so ignominiously, 'afler toiling so hard to make the summit. ‘ He stood a moment in siience, and then ventured again : ‘ Let us go while there is time [am afraid to remain here. We may be overwhelmed at any mo- ment.’ ‘ Hold on I’ said I, sensible of a curious fascination, such as some times comes over one when on the brink of the most appalling peril. ' It is true the ice has melted, but it has done so very gradually. gradually. l have spent a great deal of time lu reach Iceland, and when I started it was with the resolve to see Hecla.’ ‘ Heaven knows I haVe seen too much already.’ he replied; ' more than ever has been seen Before by living man.’ ' How do you know that 1’ I de- manded, somewhat annoyed at the dogmatical manner 0| the guide. ‘ At ieast, I think so.’ ‘ And [think 3ou are mistaken.

' I first fill the lava, and lound it quite hot, but not unp‘leasantly sc, and, using my stick with great precaution, begun the descent, I observed thetemperature of the lava beneath my feet constantly to in- crease. but 1 had thick shoes, and kuew they would be unharmed. ‘ I noticed, also a thick sulphur- ous odor, bnt considered this noâ€" lhing unusual. although it left a thick, disagreeable ‘aste on my mouth and gave an unpleasant lwinge to my olfactories. ‘ The rill of water made by the melting ice flowed hissing, down and was lost to view in the dark. chasm, from which came puffs at hot air, accompanied by e rumbl- ing and trembling of the ground. ‘ The place. the scene, aml wlth ‘ al the sense of danger connected‘ w1th, it, neldme there by a ‘ sort ‘ of magnetic fascination, and I‘ soon lonnd myself strongly tempt-7 ed tormake al'atal plunge into thtfi awful abyss. Conscious that rea&' son l'repuently loses her power at lsuch time I forced myself back a ‘few feet still remained fem-loll near the opening, needless of the frengied‘ lentreaties of my guide; ' ‘ Giving no heed, therefore; to' his earnest solicitations, I now resolv- ed to sound, '11 possibie, the depIh of the chasm belore me. and - then proceed to examine the other. ‘ For {his purpose I pulled off a small piece of lava, and, stopping to the very edge of the chasm, dropped it down and listened to the hollow rcverberalions, as it Went bounding from side to side, long after it was lost to the eye; ‘ The depth was so immense that I heard it for fully a minute, and then the sound seemed rather to die out from dIstance than to cease because of the block having reached its destination. it was a terrific depth, and as I drew back with a shudder a gust of hot, sul- phun as air puffed upward, follow- ed immediately by a steam-like vapor, and a heavy hollow boom, as if a piece oi ordnance had been discharged fa r down in the bowels of the mountain. ‘ By this time I harl regained my common sense. and become im- pressed wilh the danger lha‘ hung over me.
