They
were
the
instructions
of
the
naval
minister
to
Commander
La
Perouse
,
annotated
in
the
margin
in
Louis
XVI
's
handwriting
.
"
Ah
!
it
is
a
fine
death
for
a
sailor
!
"
said
Captain
Nemo
,
at
last
.
"
A
coral
tomb
makes
a
quiet
grave
;
and
I
trust
that
I
and
my
comrades
will
find
no
other
.
"
During
the
night
of
the
27th
or
28th
of
December
,
the
Nautilus
left
the
shores
of
Vanikoro
with
great
speed
.
Her
course
was
south-westerly
,
and
in
three
days
she
had
gone
over
the
750
leagues
that
separated
it
from
La
Perouse
's
group
and
the
south-east
point
of
Papua
.
Early
on
the
1st
of
January
,
1863
,
Conseil
joined
me
on
the
platform
.
"
Master
,
will
you
permit
me
to
wish
you
a
happy
New
Year
?
"
"
What
!
Conseil
;
exactly
as
if
I
was
at
Paris
in
my
study
at
the
Jardin
des
Plantes
?
Well
,
I
accept
your
good
wishes
,
and
thank
you
for
them
.
Only
,
I
will
ask
you
what
you
mean
by
a
`
Happy
New
Year
'
under
our
circumstances
?
Do
you
mean
the
year
that
will
bring
us
to
the
end
of
our
imprisonment
,
or
the
year
that
sees
us
continue
this
strange
voyage
?
"
"
Really
,
I
do
not
know
how
to
answer
,
master
.
We
are
sure
to
see
curious
things
,
and
for
the
last
two
months
we
have
not
had
time
for
dullness
.
The
last
marvel
is
always
the
most
astonishing
;
and
,
if
we
continue
this
progression
,
I
do
not
know
how
it
will
end
.
It
is
my
opinion
that
we
shall
never
again
see
the
like
.
I
think
then
,
with
no
offence
to
master
,
that
a
happy
year
would
be
one
in
which
we
could
see
everything
.
"
On
2nd
January
we
had
made
11,340
miles
,
or
5,250
French
leagues
,
since
our
starting-point
in
the
Japan
Seas
.
Before
the
ship
's
head
stretched
the
dangerous
shores
of
the
coral
sea
,
on
the
north-east
coast
of
Australia
.
Our
boat
lay
along
some
miles
from
the
redoubtable
bank
on
which
Cook
's
vessel
was
lost
,
10th
June
,
1770
.
The
boat
in
which
Cook
was
struck
on
a
rock
,
and
,
if
it
did
not
sink
,
it
was
owing
to
a
piece
of
coral
that
was
broken
by
the
shock
,
and
fixed
itself
in
the
broken
keel
.
I
had
wished
to
visit
the
reef
,
360
leagues
long
,
against
which
the
sea
,
always
rough
,
broke
with
great
violence
,
with
a
noise
like
thunder
.
But
just
then
the
inclined
planes
drew
the
Nautilus
down
to
a
great
depth
,
and
I
could
see
nothing
of
the
high
coral
walls
.
I
had
to
content
myself
with
the
different
specimens
of
fish
brought
up
by
the
nets
.
I
remarked
,
among
others
,
some
germons
,
a
species
of
mackerel
as
large
as
a
tunny
,
with
bluish
sides
,
and
striped
with
transverse
bands
,
that
disappear
with
the
animal
's
life
.
These
fish
followed
us
in
shoals
,
and
furnished
us
with
very
delicate
food
.
We
took
also
a
large
number
of
giltheads
,
about
one
and
a
half
inches
long
,
tasting
like
dorys
;
and
flying
fire-fish
like
submarine
swallows
,
which
,
in
dark
nights
,
light
alternately
the
air
and
water
with
their
phosphorescent
light
.
Two
days
after
crossing
the
coral
sea
,
4th
January
,
we
sighted
the
Papuan
coasts
.
On
this
occasion
,
Captain
Nemo
informed
me
that
his
intention
was
to
get
into
the
Indian
Ocean
by
the
Strait
of
Torres
.
His
communication
ended
there
.
