Book excerpt: Excerpt from The String of Pearls, Vol. 2 India is one of those countries, upon which time seems scarcely able to make any difference in customs, or*religion, under whatever form of government it may happen to be placed. Its inhabitants receive no improvement, and its arts, handed down from father to son, scarcely admit of deterioration.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cruise of the Pearl Round the World: With an Account of the Operations of the Naval Brigade in India The following Narrative is selected from a Journal which was originally written without the slightest intention of committing it to the press; but, on the representation of several friends, I have ventured to publish that portion of it which treats chiefly of the services of the "Pearl's" Naval Brigade in India, and which I thought would be interesting to the public; and trust that the truth of the statements may so far conciliate the opinion of the reader, that he will forgive its other deficiences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pearl of India That many readers evince a growing satisfaction in contemplating foreign lands through the eyes of experienced travelers, the favor shown to previous books by the author of these pages abundantly testifies. Mutual profit is therefore the outcome of such a work; both the author and reader are gratified. It is a pleasure to depict scenes which have afforded so much gratification to the writer, for enjoyment is redoubled by being shared, - "joy was born a twin." The undersigned has often been asked both personally and by letter, "Of all the places you have seen and written about, which do you consider of the most interest, and which do you recommend me to visit?" This is a very difficult question to answer, because individual tastes differ so widely. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Six Weeks' Trip Through India: Being Notes by the Way The following pages contain nothing more than is professed in the title, namely, Notes by the Way, penned, as opportunity offered, for the benefit of the readers of a daily newspaper, and without any thought of publication in a connected form. They have been reproduced in deference to the wishes expressed in several and divers quarters, in some cases by readers in Europe who were good enough to say that seeing India through the eyes of an old tropical resident gave a new interest to much of what was narrated. Therein must be found our apology for this booklet and for any novelty connected with it, namely that the writer, though over forty years resident in Lanka the Pearl-drop on the brow of India of the Hindoos - and, although he had twice travelled round the world in different directions, had never before landed on the Continent of India. It is so often the case that an inspection of what is nearest at hand is put off to the last. Our sincere wish now is that all Who may follow in our footsteps may have as much pleasure and profit from their trip as we did in our six weeks' tour during november-december 1901.

Download or read book The Fresh Water Pearls and Pearl Fisheries of the United States Classic Reprint written by George Frederick Kunz and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-16 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fresh-Water Pearls and Pearl Fisheries of the United States With the great abundance of Unio shells in North America, and their exquisite variety of tints, it seems as though a careful and judicious system of experiments might develop a form of art industry of great beauty and interest. One of the most singular circumstances connected with the New Jersey pearl fever of 1857 was the discovery of several shells which proved that local savants had experimented on the pearl-bearing Unios by dropping mother-of-pearl buttons inside the shell, hoping that the mussel would cover them with its secretion. The specimens found had evidently been experimented on some thirty years previous, at a time when European scientists were greatly interested in shells received from China, which had been treated as above described. As further bearing on this point, although not in relation to fresh-water shells, may be noted some facts brought out in the special report on pearl fisheries and pearl supply, in vol. II, No. 191, of the United States consular reports (august, In this article Mr. W'. J. Weatherill, United States consul at Brisbane, Australia, in describing the pearl fisheries in Torres Strait, alludes to. The local variation in the abundance of pearls in the pearl oysters, and states that the yield is much less where the bottom is muddy or clayey than where it consists of gravel or sharp sand. He also says that experiments are in progress for the production of pearls by artificial introduction of foreign substances, though as yet there has not been time to deter mine how far they may be successful. Mr. A. E. Morland, consul at Belize, British Honduras, speaks of the pink pearls found in the large West India conch shell (strombus gigas), and mentions that these also can be artificially induced though it is not done at that place. He refers to an instance, however, in which a person did succeed in this process, introducing a foreign nucleus through a hole bored in the shell, and thus obtaining conch pearls; but instead of being rewarded for his ingenuity the pearl manufacturer was brought before a West India magistrate and fined for fraud.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Indian Summer 'When the showers of early autumn follow close upon a very sultry summer, it is not unusual to see some trees in the orchards covered with the blossoms of spring - mostly those who have passed through the hot season, apparently barren and parched up, owing to some catastrophe that befell them in the early spring, either perhaps an unusual storm, or a very late frost which blighted their first promising bloom, and left them bare and leafless. Under the influence of the soft warm damp of autumn, however, the sap in their branches, so long checked by the burning heat of the past summer, begins to rise and to swell into new buds and leaves.
