 Saw the same gull that we noticed yesterday. Trawled in the afternoon on the 

 fiue Alice Hank 9 in 350 fathom*. Tin- nature of the bottom i> evidently very 

 nx-ky. a?* the dynomometer showed considerable jerkiness, especially while the trawl 

 was being hauled up, when we had frequently to delay hauling in order to ease the 

 strain. Very poor catch indeed : about four pieces of sponge like Hyalonenia, a few 

 pieces of coral and a medusoid, the latter evidently from the surface. 



A school of very white porpoises was seen. A few jelly-fish and swimming-bells 

 were noticed passing tin- ship.
