In the Reign of Law.
I love a system of policy that in-
spires such confidence as to give a
value to land and that renders men so
comfortable on their estates as to
make the sale of lliem the least of
their ideas.—Arthur Young, “Travels
In France, 1789.”
Ambergris and Amber.
There is some popular’ confusion of
ambergris with amber; in fact, how-
ever, there Is no relation between
them. But for a long time the nature
of ambergris was hidden in mystery.
In ancient days it was commonly be-
lieved that it flowed up from the bot-
tom of the sea. Sinbad the Sailor
tells of a spring of arabergfis that he
found; but it was in a crude slaie.
The fish swallowed it and then dis-
guigt-u it in cuiiRDtiicu form and i" .
this condition it floated on the surface |
of the sea. This story harmonizes i
perfectly with the old Arabian belief.
