Berryman, of the United States Navy, in the North Atlantic, between Newfoundland and the Azores. Observations which confirm those of Ehrenberg in all essential respects have been made by Professor Bailey, myself, Dr. Wallich, Dr.
"You come to the question of-ah-subjects," the voice of Trimmer genially buzzed he had gathered his garments tight across his back "my dear fellow, Art, properly applied, justifies all subjects." "For Art," squeaked Berryman, putting back his second volume and taking down a third, "you have Homer, Cervantes, Shakespeare, Ossian; for garbage, a number of unwashed gentlemen."
In this report Lieutenant Maury demonstrated the entire practicability of such an enterprise, and sustained his conclusions by a statement of the recent discoveries concerning the bed of the ocean, made by Lieutenant Berryman. Professor Morse came in person to visit Mr.
Lieutenant Berryman, U.S.N., in the Arctic, and Lieutenant Dayman, R.N., in the Cyclops, made a careful survey. Their soundings revealed a ridge near the Irish coast, but the slope was gradual and the general conditions seemed especially favorable. The preliminary work had been done by an American company with Field at the head and Morse as electrician.
"Madame Bovary!" he said quizzically, reading the title of the book on the little fat man's bookrest; and, holding it closer to his boiled-looking eyes, he repeated, as though it were a joke, "Madame Bovary!" "Do you mean to say, Turl, that you can stand that stuff?" said Berryman.
Fortunately Berryman broke in: "Law courts or not, when a man runs away with a wife of mine, I shall punch his head!" "Come, come!" said Turner, spasmodically grasping his two wings.

It was evidently one of a suite. On the door was a brass plate bearing the name. "Henry Berryman." The Rev. Andrew Rowbottom knocked on his door a meek, appealing summons. He received no reply. Confident that he had heard a movement in the room Andrew knocked again. Still on answer.
John's was now connected with New York by a thousand miles of land and submarine telegraph. Mr. Field then directed his efforts to the completion of the trans-oceanic section. He induced the American Government to despatch Lieutenant Berryman, in the Arctic, and the British Admiralty to send Lieutenant: Dayman, in the Cyclops, to make a special survey along the proposed route of the cable.
The door was opened, and a tall creature, whose eyes were large and brown, whose face was rosy and ironical, entered with a manly stride. "Oh!" he said, looking round him with his chin a little in the air, "am I intruding, Turl?" The little host, blinking more than ever, murmured, "Not at all, Berryman take a pew!" The visitor called Berryman sat down, and gazed up at the wall with his fine eyes.
A feeling of hostility instantly sprang up in Shelton; he looked at his little host, who, however, merely blinked. "Berryman only means," explains Washer, a certain malice in his smile, "that the author is n't one of his particular pets." "For God's sake, you know, don't get Berryman on his horse!" growled the little fat man suddenly.
