The First White Man to Set Foot on the Icebound Land. C. E. Borchgrevink, the Norwe- gian explorer, writes a graphic ac- count of ‘‘The First Landing on the Antarctic Continent’ for The Cen- tury. The writer says: We landed at Cape Adare that night (Jan. 23, 1895), being the first human creatures to put foot on the mainland. A peculiar feeling of fas- cination crept over each of us, even to the most prosaic natures in our boat, as we gradually drew near to the beach of this unknown land. Some few cakes of ice were floating about, and looking over the side of the boat Ieven discovered a jelly- fish, apparently of the common light blue, transparent kind. I do act know whether it was to catch the jellyfish or from a strong desire to be the first man to put foot on this terra incognita, but as soon as the order was given to stop pulling the oars I jumped over the side of the boat. I thus killed two birds with one stone, being the first man on shore, and relieving the boat of my weight, thus enabling her to ap. proach land near enough to let the captain jump ashore dryshod. I had painted a Norwegian flag on a large box, which we fastened on a strong pole near the place where we landed, and leaving the rest of the crew to be entertained by the pen- guins I proceeded alone to investi- gate the peninsula and to make col- lections. I found seaweed on the beach, but whether it bad grown on the shores of Victoria Land remains to be ascertained in the future. I believe that Cape Adare is the very place where a future scientifio expedition might stop safely even during the winter months. From the spot where we were several ac- cessible spurs lead up to the top of the cape, and from there a gentle slope runs on to the great plateau of Victoria Land. The presence of the penguin colony, their undisturbed old nests, the appearance of dead‘ seals (which were preserved like Egyptian mumniies, and must have lain there for years), the vegetation to the rocks and lastly the flat table of the cape above, all indicated that here is a place where the powers of the antarctic circle do not display the whole severity of their forces. Neither ice nor volcanoes seemed to have raged on tho peninsula at Capo Adare, and I strongly recommend a future scientific expedition to choose that place as a center of operations, On this particular spot there is am- ple space for house, tents and pro. visions. I myself am willing to be the leader of a party to be landed either on the pack or on the mainland near Colman island. From there it is my scheme to work toward the south magnetic pole, calculated to be in latitude 75 degrees 5 minutes, longi- tude 150 degrees east. Should the party succeed in penetrating so far into the continent, the course should, if possible, be laid for Cape Adare, there to join the main body of the expedition. As to the zoological re. sults of future researches, I expect great discoveries, It would indeed be remarkable if on the unexplored Victoria continent, which probably extends over an area of 4,000,000 square miles, there should not be round animal life hitherto unknown in the southern hemisphere, It is, of course, a possibility that the un- known land around the axis of rota- tion might be found to consist of is. lands joined only by perpetual ice and snow, but the appearance of the land, the color of. the water, with its soundings, in addition to the movements of the antarctic ice, point to the existence of a mass of iand much ‘more extensive than a mere group of islands. The slanderer inflicts wrong by calumniating the absent, and he who gives credit to the calumny before he knows its truth is = guilty. : — Herodotus, Wickedneaa,. when pro ity do ished, is diagwanstal a to "the offender.
