True Picture of the Desert.

believe the majority of the English readers
are not only without any idea of the variation
in the characteristics Of different deserts, and
the changes of appearance which each presents
at different seasons of the year, but that their
general impression of ga desert" is somewhat
vague, The word usually conures up level
plain Of sand, extending as far as the eye can
reach, with scarcely blade of grass to relieve
the dreariness of the scene. They then color
up flaming sky overhead, fill in troop of tur-
buent looking Bedoulns, lowering near, imag
inc short supply OF water, and already feel
their tongue cleave to the roof of their mouth
Such ideas came into my head sometimes, and
formed an amusing contrast to my position as
rode merrrly along on an allowance of two doz

facetous driver, Achmet, and trying to learn an
Arab song, which, by the way was such an any

known chorus, Ach aly, laly, why, why,'
The face of the desert around is diversified with
hill and dale, like any other part of the earth's
surface and it presents a continual variety as

Land Water-spouts.

During the late heavy weather, the neighbor-

serious dlnage to property. One which visited

such food there had certainly been a smart
shower, but not at all sufficient to produce it..
After the water had somewhat subsidized, another
body deuged the streets; but at length 1t pas

Jury had been done, and how the phenomenon
was caused. On the road leading to Bristol,
the road stones, sand and rubbish were piled up
knee deep; immense ruts were plowed, and 1t
was with difficulty that horses and vehicles could
pass. In the low lands several lambs were drown
ed, and at the sides of the hills, whole gardens,
with potatoes and ether vegetables, we're washed
away. 1t appears that the overflow was caused
by water-spout, which was seen by some farm
laborers to descend first on PewnhllI and trav-
erse the Mendp district for some miles. The
appearance was dense black cloud, which sud
denly descended and formed circular column

Curious account of the Electric eff.
fects of a Russian Climata.

Mr. Epnus, in letter to DR.. Gutrie relates
the following phenomena, which took place in
Russia, when severe frost had continued for
several weeks:
Mr. Epinus was sent for to the palace to see
an uncommon phenomenon. On going into the
up rtment OF Prince OrIoff, he found him at his
toilet, and that every time his valet drew the
comb through his hair, strong cracking noise
was heard ; and on dlrkenng the room, spark,
were seen following the COMB in great abund.
aHce' While the prince himself was so cumple.e
" electrehed, that strong spalks could be draw,
from the hands and face nay, he was even cleo
'rlhed when he was only powdered with Duff
a lie" days after, he was witness to more
striking effect Of the electric state of Russian
atmosphere. The Grand Duke of Rus.i, sen,
Tor MN one evening in the twilight, and told him
that having brlsky drawn Il flannel cover OH a
green damaslx chair in his bed chamber. he was
| astonisied at The appearances q e,rt'un bright

electrical appearance, he had tried to produce
similar Illumination on different pieces Of fnrnl
ture, and could then show him beautiful anc

self upon his bed, which was covered with
danask quilt laced with gold and rubbing
with his hands in all directions, the young prime
who had then reached his twelfth year, appear
ed swimming in fire, as at every stroke flame
arose all around him, darted to the gold lace

even to the very top.
While he was showing this experiment. Prime
Orloff came into the room, with sable muff i
his hand, and showed US, that only by whirln
