Supposed Discovery of The Tower Of
Babel.

\ correspondent Of the Boston Troreiier,
writing from Beirut, announces that Mr.. Place,
the French Consul at Mosul has discovered the
ruins of the Tower of Babel.
E.Six OF its eight stories have fallen aud crum-
hled into dust but the two which remain are
50 high that they may be seen for fifty or Sirty
miles around. The base Of the tower is quad
ranguar, and each side about six hundred feet
long. TIE tower is made OF bricks OF the purest
clay and ofa white color, which is ! little sha-
ded with yellow tint.
Under clear sun, as a whole, this ancient
monument Of human skill and daring presents
tine blending OF coors, which SETS the painters
pallet at defiance. Before being baked, the
bricks had been covered with characters traced
with the accuracy Of the hand Of a writing
master. Near the top Of the letters, ih, straight
strokes were adorned with hourishes resembling
the heads Of nails. A Il was neat, regular and
severe and, indeed, hose who saw th-se spe-
cimens of ancient caligraphy affirm that the
fathers of the human race WEote a better hand
than their children.
Among the interesting discoveries OF NJ.
Place, were certain Inscriptions on Glets Of
gold, silver and copper, and aiS1 upon metal
now unknown, and which has somewhat the
appearance OF ivory. II has been submitted to
the experiments of an metallurgist. and IFS quail
ities viii soon be ascertaned. Some very Gu
rious photographs, taken by The expedition,
completed their labors, one OF which was of the
RUNS Of the palace o! the famous Queen Semi
ramls. This ancient monument, situated on
the height of a mountain raised by the hands Of
men, overlooks the awful solitudes which sur
round Lake Van-a body of water sis or seven
times larger than lake Geneva.
NEw TowNs IN kANSAs.-The Kansas Her
aid says that two towns now being laid out
IN that Terriiory-one at the mouth OF the Kan
sas river, to be called Wyandott, and the other

Chinese Sugar Cane.

We were shown on Friday a sample of
molasses made from the sirup of the Sugar
Cane, raised by L. l.. Moore, of Mount
joy. He states that he planted about four
thousand canes on quarter of an acre OF
ground, and from each cane he got one half
pint of sirup. Taking l6 900 canes, on
an acre, there would be one thousand
gallon of molasses therefore, from one
acre of cane, one hundred and twenty five
gallons of molasses can be made. 1t will
easily be seen from the above estimate
that, that it is far more remunerative for
farmers to raise the cane and from It make
1nolasses, than to raise corn or wheat.
Besides, the stalks, after they have been
used, can be fed to the cattle, which relish
them much more than corn besides these
are much more nutritious. The sirup
shown US has a fine favor and is equal to
the best molasses. As this has been the
first attempt that Mr.. Moore has made, it
is not as clear as the best molasses. Seye.
raj farmers around Mr.. Moore have plant
ed the cane with the same result, and some
have been more successful than he has.

ExTRAvAaANoE.- There are two things
which, financial crisis, like this, would
strike an European economist, as anomalous:
the first is the waste of provisions in our
cities, and the second the neglect Of agricul-
ture out of them. An Englishman of the
middle class, accustomed to dine off JOINT
and can of ale, Frepchman, who makes
an adequate meal of ragout and soup, and
pockets his surplus Jumps of sugar at the
cafe, and an Italian, who kills his appetite
with heaping dish of Macaroni, hears peo-
pie at the st. Nicholas or Astor, complaining
of hard times and scarcity of money, and
sees food enough to nourlsh regiment, daily
thrown to beggars or carted away as offal,
and twenty times the quantity served that Is
required; he goes to the West and finds enor-
nous tracts of fertile soil lying fallow, and
the inhabitants of an adjacent town paying
high prices forIvegetables. Able bodied men
there prefer to stand at the corner and talk
about ''rairoads" and "lots'' without a dollar
in their pockets, Ito accepting farmers
moderate gains, healthful occupation and
certain livelihood and this state of things,
to European optics, is absolutely inconsistent.
In the old world it is deemed very plea
SAINT thing to live with prudence and econo-
my, upon a small income, and thus be free to
engage in liberal study,-literary, scientific,
antiquarian, and artistic; and it is also deem
ed no unhappy lot by moderate work, to OBJ
tain moderate subsistence; whereas, here, a
man content with competency and unambit-
ious of show, is an object of pity or derision,
and he who tolls for regular but only limited
gains is thought ''slow" and an ''old fogy"
and yet every three years, on an average,
those who pursue contrary course become
kny,lr ALc-1 Nh
who fail as matter of course, -compromise,
and begin again; and the process makes no
obvious difference either in their way of liv-
ing or the consideration they enjoy. Indeed,
the fippant talk about "stopping payment"
here might lead the novice to think it joke ;
'ilittle Jacobs gone" was phrase, the other
day, and always communicated with grin !;
and parodied, TOO, by ragged newsboy who,
when asked for certain paper he used to
vend, exelaimed-"hayn't got none, sir !;
'oe'Ue busted up. Tribune.

Dudley Mann's great scheme of asouthern
line Of steamers to Europe, has been patron.
lied by President Buchanan to the extent OF
one share of the stock, one hundred dollars.
The Richmond Enquirer is much gratifed
with this evidence of Mr.. Buchanans inter-
est in southern institutions. Another share
has been taken by New York merchant,
This makes two shares, two hundred dollars,
taken since the Old Point convention, or
within six weeks, as the capital stock is
only seven millions, the prospect for a mod
crate and careful filling of Mr.. Mann's treas
ury, is certainly encouraging, May Mr..
Mann live thousand years, and see the first
steamboat of his line launched.
