A minute more, and above the din of blocks and cordage, and the stamping of men's feet, there arose a wild cry that echoed farn'nd wide over the lurrounding ice fields, and through every cranny of the neighboring ice-castle "The ship is sink inpl" It was an appalling announcement ;ond unfortunately it was a true one. The ice had struck us heavier than we thought, and its hard, sharp edge, keen ' find re sistless as that ot a knife, pressing against the bow of our vessel undefended as she was by the double timbers needed for ice encounters had cut thenf completely through, so that the water rushed in with the force and rapidity of a cascade.
