We carried the four calves to the station, whrte they were tenderly cared for, Sergeants Long and Frederick being the self- elected nurses. Ti\e calves were fed on condensed milk, oatmeal, soaked crackers, etc., and seemed to tinive very well at iirst; but as no vessel came in 1882, the cold winter months set in thev died, one after the other. The iirst one to die was Frederick's pet, which he liad named '"John Henry," although it was a female. One of our brute dogs had chased and bitten it, injuring its shoul- der, which caused it to die shortly after. The other calves seemed to pine away after that, and on ()ctol)ei' 7th the last one died, and our hope of enriching the menagerie of the Smithsonian Insiitutiou with a live Musk-ox died with it. ,.
