Depth, 1570 fathoms; deposit, Globigerina Ooze, containing 92'34 per cent, of 
carbonate of lime (see Murray and Renard, Deep-Sea Deposits Chall. Exp,). 
At 9.30 a.m. shortened and furled sails. At 9.45 a.m. proceeded under steam and 
sounded in 1570 fathoms. Obtained serial temperatures at intervals of 100 fathoms 
down to 1400 fathoms. At 2 p.m. completed temperatures, and at 2.20 p.m. made all 
plain sail. A few albatrosses, terns, petrels, one penguin, Mother Carey’s chickens, 
and Cape hens were seen. 
Distance at noon from Prince Edward Island, 121 miles. Made good 155 miles. 
Amount of current 13 miles, direction N.E. 
Foraminifera (Brady, Zool. pt. 22). — The following species of Foraminifera were
