Morieu_. (Fac-simile of earlyengraving. )] What immense service he has rendered to geography! In his first voyagehe reconnoitred the Society Islands, proved that New Zealand is formedof two islands, explored the strait that separates them, and surveyedits coast, and lastly he visited the entire eastern coast of NewHolland.
In his second voyage he proved the chimerical character of thelong-talked-of Antarctic continent, the dream of stay-at-homegeographers. He discovered New Caledonia, Southern ...Georgia, theSandwich Islands, and penetrated farther into the southern hemispherethan any one had done before him.
In his third expedition he discovered the Hawaian archipelago, andsurveyed the eastern coast of America, to the forty-third degree, thatis to say, an extent of 3500 miles. He passed through Behring Straits, and ventured into the Arctic Sea, which was the horror of navigators, until the icebergs opposed an impenetrable barrier to his progress.
It is needless to praise his qualities as a seaman; his hydrographicalworks remain, but above all his careful treatment of his crewsdeserves to be remembered.
