As the Icelandere are attracting some
attention at present from their.unex-
'wend attempt to thaw out into a
nationality, some particulars respecting
that hyberborenn people linty uot ne un-
interesting to our rpaders. Our sources
of information are of course not very
nbunatnt: Their ancestors were an
adventurous colony from Norway, who
settled stil the island in ths end of the
ninth oehtury. Strobe, idle historian,
indeed mentions ond Pythias, a citizen
of Marseilles, who same 340 years before
Christ sailed north pist as Island that
strange kind of rier, neither earth,
air. nor eke. but a ixtrareaf all three,
he callej Thule, tilt was stopped by
forming a thicksithgtance which he could
not pais, probably drift ice; but we may
pass by this story, 'which probably has
some foundation, till about A D. 864,
when an adventurous Norwegian gen-
tleman, named Rahn& Floki, a sort of
ScandinavienColumhus, fell in with the
island in one of bis cruises, and no
doubt gave a glowing &cement of it on
his return, for we find that 'a few you'
later, the Scandinatiati kine, Harold
Baufsger, (or the fair.headed,) having
no Magna Chart& or loyal opposition to
restrain hiin, and hying murdered and
otherwise exterminsted all the other
kings of that happy region. and other-
wis•• ma•le himself _very ffissitrooltbla
neighbor, certain "polite:tau" of those
days, probably having heard of the
grand discoveries of Field of the Ravens.
or having read nf them in the Globe of
that age, started off to push their for-
tunes, and after the' usualadvneturous
incidents, at length landed :mon tho site
of the present capital, Iteykjavick, or in
vernaculaesnock, Town, and plant-
ed a cclony that appears to haveheen
the origin of the preeent population, as
evidenced by language and personal re-
semblances. This was in the reign of Al-
fred of Eneland,or between 871 arid eel.
That•the first "settlers" met with some
diflieultieeran hardlebe denbted,as there
wore no . immigrant "gents to look after
their emilforts, but poeseasirig the pluek
wiiitld make their descendauts
velueble in Cauaila at the present day,
they. persevered, and IO! they are to-
dayeefter the lapse ` f a demoted years,

at home in the water than on land. He

which consists chiefly of laming poplar,
birch (they prefer silver birch), and a
large root railed "man.root." Across
the creek they throw a dam, or number
of dams as the case may require.
These dams are wonderful stroctures,
and are made With great engineering
skill ; they are frequently seven or eight
feet high, measuring Been:tithe bottom of
the creek or lake in which it is formed ;
about six or eight feet thick from the
hese, and, if necessary, as much as three
hundred feet long. The dam is made of
sticks -from which they have first eaten
the bark -stones, and mud, which they

it, as only one family resides in a lake,
unless it be a very large and natural one,
Although each family has a dam, a lake
and a house (they frequently build a new
house every siinuner) to itself, yet they
are bio often found very close together,

into a lake belonging toanother family.

In venturing a few remarks on the
"roaring game,' it ie not our intention
to make any elAborate inquiry either
into ita origin or antiquity as a purely
Scottish sport. We think that those of
our readers who are curlers have suffi-
cient interest in the game to have made
them before now prosecute their inqui-
rieeiti that direction. We shall, there-
fore, confine ourselves to a general
eiscurnion of the game, and what it leads
te.
The first notice which we can light
upon orsspeetiug this pastime, occurs in
"Cambden's Britannia, published in
1607. where the writer says, in speaking
of Orkney, -"To the east of the main-
land lies Copinsha, a littleisle, in which
and in several other places of this coun-
try, are te be be found in great plenty,
excellent stones for the game called
towhee." This shows that a knowledge,
ee the . sport must have been pretty'
general at that lime, and perhaps is is
on aemonnt of its popularity thane more
particalaenntice was *keno( it . In 1,638'
mention was wide of the gante in the
Acta of the General Assembly, and from
tqese and other dote we may suppose

imposaible to find' ony mention of its

We have bee.a c;lj. -4 to taek for the
employment of th term "chareer-sel-
as the name of a pelitical party.
We regret its use ourselves, but it is un-
avoidable under the eircutestances, un-
less we would insult true Conservatives.
The Conservative party is split in Oro
on the great question beforethe conntry,
and has been so sinew the publication, of
the Allan correspondence.; and more
especielly since the thieteenth of August.
In every part of the Dominion the more
respactable Consorvatives have refused
to coutinue their alleeiance to Sir John
Macdonald since his guilt was proved,
and have cut themselves loose from
those who are still mad enough to con-
done that great crime. The teal Con-
servatives are.hostile to the restoration
of Macdonald to power, and rag -tag and
bobtail Tories who still cling to the cor-
rupt and condemned Mtnistry are fairly
entitled te no other Hanle than that of
"Charter -Sellers," seeing that their ap-
proval of the Bele of the Pacific chatter
for bribery-mouey is the ono point ie
which they differ from the honest Con-
servatives. They oiled not really to be
ashamed of the name, "twine they were
not ashamed of the. act eit; which it is
fotilided. On the other Mold, to call
the charter -sellers by their own name of
Ccovicrvatives, would be to ina'ke it soo
