,F'Eae Esth anllas of Suez.

We find, in "a recent French newspaper the
following interesting description of this neck of
land in Africa The English government are
even now anxious to control it, knowing that it is
destined, before many years, to be the thorough
fare of Europe to China and the East Indies:
From Cairo to Suez there is about thirty hours
of travel; camels take from two to three days to
travel it; merchandise wagons one day, and the
horse post lit tie less. Cairo and Suez commu-
ncate by high road kept IN good order The
India mail take this route; sixteen station have
been established for it to change horses. These
stations are all square buildings of single story,
with court yard in the center. They much re-
semble the chalets of Switzerland. The traveller,
dying with thirst and oppressed by fatigue, per-
ceives them with real joy for he is always sure of
finding there good stock of water drawn from
the Nile. They are always provided with neces-
sary comforts. The desert begins att the gates of
Cairo. After once entering it, no verdure is met,
except miserable herb, which serves pasture
to the camels as they pass, and two or three sol-
tary trees. One of the latter-an old and large
sycamore, about midway-in the object OF great
veneration among the Bedouins.4 ALI the pill
grims of Mecca suspend there some portions Of
their wardrobe to obtain n prosperous voyage. In
Egypt number of these trees. is met, to which
the people attribute marvellous virtue. 1t is the
tree under whose shade it is said Joseph and Ma
ry reposed it is the same as that Of the Island of
Rhodes, not far from Cairo, which has the prop
erty of removing barrenness from women. The
soil on the entire route, after leaving Cairo is
hard and stony, so that, fit be designed to build
railroad here, there will be nothing to be apPre-
hended from the. moving sands. 1t would be an
error to suppose that the desert.in one eternal
plain The route is traversed by a range OF
small hills, which offer to the eye new points of

4 a caravan passes; the camels advance with equal
step one after another, loaded with the treasures
of India-Mocha coffee, mother of pearl from the
Red Sea- gum from Arabia and African IVORY
The caravans saluted with ''Salamaleikam, =
! and everything becomes still again. You are
once more master of the, solitude, for no one is
there to dispute it with you, save the sanguinary
hyena which watches in the gloom the tired cam

Splitting Hairs.

Some years ago, Roger M. Sherman and Perry
Smith, of Connecticut, were opposed to each 9TH
er, as advocates, in an important case before a
court of Justice. Smith opened the case with a
violent and foolish TRADE against Sherman's po-
litical character. Sherman rose in composed
manner and remarked.
81 shall not discuss politics with Mr.. Smith be-
fore this court, but am perfectly willing to argue
questions of law, to chop logic, or even to split
hairs with him.
esplit that then,'' said Smith, at the same time
pulling short, rough looking hair from his own
head, and handing it over towards Sherman.
'sMay it please the honorable court" retortee
Sherman, II didn't say 6ristzes -.,xi.,,.s
