Pumping n Lake Dry.

DR.. J. " c. Smith, the editor of the Boston Medi-
cal Surgical Journal, who is now on visit to Eu-
rope, gives interesting description in his edtori
oil correspondence from Holland, of the manner in
which the Lake of HARLEM is being drained by
steam engines and its waters sent to the sea.
Six miles from Amsterdam is the inland lake of
HARLEM 81 miles long by IL in width, which, three
hundred years ago, found to be perceptibly in
creasing by shooting its waters further and further
and covering up the land, threatening the first COM
mercial port of the realm with destruction by flow
ing in upon its bank. Various schemes at that re-
mote epoch devised by able councillors to stay
the threatening danger. Three Dutch engineers, Of
acknowledged ability, proposed draining off the wa
ter first raising it by wind mills. They entitled
to remembrance, from having suggested the plan a.
dopted in 1S49 for averting impending calamity
Seven years since, delay being no longer safe, a
canal was dug around the whole circumference of
the lake, averaging 200 feet in width by ten deep,
Three monster engines housed the sides of the
lake, some six or eight miles apart each moving
eight monstrous pumps. All the pistons raised
at once at every revolution of the machinery raising
$4,000 gallons of water, which is emptied into the
canal, whence it is fastened on by fourth engine
faster than it would otherwise move to the Zuyder
Zee and thus it reaches the sea- fifteen miles distant
In April, l849, the pumps, worked by three of the
mightiest steam engines perhaps constructed
were set in notion and up to this date July 25th,
have lowered the contents of the lake feet
By next April it is anticipated that the bottom will
be fairly exposed, and all the water conveyed away
from this ancient BASIN All this is executed at the
expense of government"

correspondent writing from New York, refers to
the fact that certain class there who assume to be
superior to the rest have not yet attended the
certs of the Swedish Nightingale. He says:
The aristocratic and exclusive portion have not,
as a class, yet heard Jenny Lind. few of this ex-
treme end of upper-ten-dom," were seen at the
first concert at Castle Garden, but since then the
low price of tickets rendering the attendance of the

PEELED to forego the glory of being the first in this
country to "patronise" merit and goodness, it is
obliged to sequestcr itself uptown cages to escape
contamination by contact with common people, who
have thus far appreciated and admired the gentle
vocalist. What commentary is this on the -osten-
taous musical taste which has heretofore supported
the Opera House at Astor Place. Nobody doubts
that these deluded people would attend Jenny's
certs, if they were really possessed of the Wanted
admiration and appreciation Of artistes and music
and their absence proves the truth of the popular
belief in that respect"
