! should like to place before your
readers a few brief facts, respecting
cheap and desirable roof:
Eighteen years ago ! made a fiat
roof over the central portion Of my
dwelling, in the following manner:
/ first laid jointcd flooring boards
upon the joists, and covered this sur
face with roofing paper; then poured
upon u section Of the roof small
quantity OF raw coal tar, spreading 1t
evenly with single, to the depth,
perhaps, OF q sixteenth Of an inch.
Upon this siftcd common road dust,
putting it on evenly, to the depth Of
half or threc.fourths of an inch; that
is, as long as the dust continued tobe
wet through the top by the tar. 1t
took me but an hour or two to go
over the whole roof, ID by Is, in this
manner. My first application was
made in May; and about six weeks
later l went over the whole surface
again In like manner; finishing up
with the fourth application in Sep
TENDER. Since the first application
Of the tar and dust, the roof has not
leaked drop, and appearsgood for a
century to come. Since the first year
1t has been like firm sheet Of stone,
about half an inch thick, upon which
the family can sit, walk, run, or
dance, without injury to the roof.
Let me also tell you how l made 1t
water-tight around my brick CHM
neys, extending through theshingled
portion Of the roof: / thoroughly
mixed a quantity of the tar and dust
into thick paste, and with trowel
applied it as collar around the chim-
neys, extending it about four inches
out on the roof, and as high up the
side of the brick-work, and compact
ly filling this space with mortar.
This collar clung, as firsS placed, q
perfect defence against leakage till
the roof required renewal, and the
ends of the shingles beneath itwerc
then perfectly sound, and the tar and
dust mortar itself resembled a species
Of soft stone, that could be easily and
smoothly whitfield with knife. II
any Of your readers are acquainted
with q better method of making a
cheap, good roof, hope they willlet
it be known to the public.--D. b.

g1l.e farm@fg There being forced tosell
on account Of the scarcity OF old corn
and the prospective failure of the
new. Their fears were not ground
less, as the corn in these States is
pocr in quality, scarce in quantity,
and too high in price for stock-feed-
ing. Their loss has been to the gain
of our farmers, in. furnishing, as it
has, the most profitable market for
the disposal Of our abundance. 91F
We notice that the report Of the
Departmental Agriculture for Sep
estimates that the decrease Of
the corn crop in Iowa willamount to
twenty if not thirty per cent. This
estimate was probably made up from
reports received by the Department
early in September, when the rain
was coming down every day and
was blue with fear that
This year was to be an exception to
The assured promise that harvest
shall never fail. The September sun
and summer continued late into
The fall have dissipated all such fears
and brought the crops out full and
fair; and, as we say above, in total
quantity exceeding by several mill
ions of bushels that of last year.
The Iowa farmer, despite the dam
age to his wheat crop, will find this
a profitable year, provided he has
had the good judgment to raise
plenty Of corn and the foresight to
provide hogs enough to eat it up.
Corn in the bushel will not be un-
as the prospect is that the
foreign demand will make the price
high; while, if it is made into pork,
The profit will be still greater. The
cash balance of Iowa agriculture, on
New Years. next will be such as to
make the State and the farmer richer

The Great sahara.

A story is going the rounds of the
papers to the effect that NJ. Lessepa,
the engiaseeef the Ssez Canal, has
proposed ~ dig canal fSom the Red
ISea to the Desert Of Sahara, and thus
|transforrn tls.t greatwaste into a nav
iigablc ocsan; the Iessi of aahara, ac-
cording q This story, being several
hundred feet below that ofthe sea.
| The ridiculous project seems to be
an English invention, started out Of
spite against the great French en-
gineer, or perhap ~ sfIoat pTly asa
joke. 1t has been seriously accepted
! IN this country; and several papers
are already discussing the effect Of
the new ocean on the climate Of
Northern Africaand Central Europe.
But In the first place the river Nile
is between the Red Sea and the Sa-
hara, and il would be something of a
task to carry a canal across great
stream with sufficient water to make
the desert Manageable. And secondly
and lastly, as NJ. Lsseps and all
well-informed engineers very well
know, the Sahara Is not valley, and
its surface Is much higher than the |
level of the ocean. al
Neither is it a sandy desert; but
much OF it is Inhabited, especially by
the Tauricks, a white race who have
lived there from the remOtest time,
and who have cities, towns and com
agricultural cultivation in
what passes for the desert. The new
Cyclopedia, in its article
on Sahara, says: until the recent
Of Barth, Overweg, Vo-
gel and Richardson, very erroneous
notions prevailed as to the true char
acter Of the great African Desert.
The travellers describe the Sahara as
a region Of elevated plateaus, rising
to mountains from 1900 to 5000 feet
high. Ascending from the Mediter-
anean, the summit of the Gharian
plateau is reached at the height of
1000 feet. This plateau slopes away
to 800 feet above the sea level. Be-
yond rises the stony table-land called
the Hamadah, from 300 to 800 feet
above the sea, which, ut Sockna,
passes into the so-called Black Noun
tains. The great surface Of the Saba
ra, excepting the mountains and the
few small sratlys referred to, varies
from ] 900 to 1900 feet above the sea.
Vogel estimated the average eleva-
ton to be from 1900 to 1900 feet.
Some Of the mountains are so high
that their inhabitants go clad i'm furs
and woolens at certain seasons.--E.r.

Palestine ExploratiOn-Roman Tanks.

Palestine Expl0ratiOn-Roman Tanks.
In a recent letter to the London Times on
the subject of the explorations in Palestine,
Lieutenant Warren describes an underground
cistern which he ha 9 discovered beneath the
II arsm inclosure at Jerusalem, measuring
fifty-seven feet by sixty three feet, covered by
a groin:vaulted roof, supported by columns,
the vault having transverse ribs OF cut stone,
with the spandrils between filed in with
ooursed rubble, and he adds that she cannot
believe that such structure as this was built
merely for q tank"
Mr.. Henry Conybeare writes to the Times
that the design of this tank exactly CORES
ponds with that Of many subterranean-vaulted
reservoirs that were constructed in Roman
times unquestionably as tanks only, and
adds
"Of these the best known are the Piscena
of the Villa Cardito, near Naples, and the
Piscena Mirabile, near Baia; in the latter the
vault has traverse ribs of cut stone, with the
spandrils between filed in with rubble exactly
as in the example discovered by Lieutenant
Warren, the only difference being that in the
latter case the vault is pointed instead of
semi circular.
"But the most splendid examples extant
(out of India) of such subterranean reser-
voirs are the cistern Of Bin-birde rell (or of
the thousand and enc columns') and that Of
the Yere- batan-seraI (or 'Subterranesn Pa
lace') at Constsntinople. OF these the first
is now dry and used as silk factory. 1t oeou-
pies an area of twenty thousand square feet,
and is capable of containing one million two
hundred and thirty-seven thousand cubic feet
of water, a quantity sufficient to supply the
population of Constantinople for fifteen days.
The Yere batan-serai still remains cistern of
watey its vaulted roof is supported by three
hundred and thirty.six marble columns, all
with exquisitely sculptured Corinthian CAPT
tails and some of them with soulptured shafts
In 10th the construction of the roof is the
same as in Lieutenant Warren's tank-viz., a
grOined vault, with rectangular transverse ribs,
and though unquestionably built as cisterns
only, they greatly exceed the Jerusalem ex-
ample in scale and magnifcence."

Book Smuggling by English Publishers

bOOk OmuggnHB W EngllSn PuDItSner5.
The following from the Publishers Circular
explains ITSELF
f1o the Editor of the Publishers Circular-
Sir:-In your last number you alluded to, aud
quoted from, an article which lately appeared
in the New York Times on the seizure OF
English books; the undersigned therefore beg
permission to state in your columns the
inference to be drawn from the article in
question, that the English publishers were
cognizant that the purchases made last autumn
by Mr. II. j. Shaw, of Montreal were to be
smuggled into the United States, is utterly
false; and they being, they believe, the largest
sufferers by the attempt, emphatically repu-
date the slightest knowledge of such inten-
tion, and indignantly repel the unwarrantable
insinuation.
"This disclaimer is not uttered through a
fear that the English trade or their CORES
pOndents in the United States or Canada be-
lieve them capable of being parties to such a
dishonorable transaction, but because, II not
adverted to, their motive for silence might, by
the American press, be misconstrued.
'They conceive it unnecessary to intlude
upon your valuable space to explain why they
were induced to believe in the bona JideS of
Mr.. Shaw, but will simply say further they
unfortunately are obliged to concur in your
belief that they have been miserably N isled
and deceived, and eventually will cruelty
suffer in the matter

Strahan & Co., Charles Griffin g. Co.,
Reeves q Turner, William Collins, Sons &
Co., Glasgow; A. Fullarton Il Co., Eiin-
burgh; James Duffy, Dublin Charles Jefs-
ries, Jr., Bristol"
By the New York Times just to hand, we
learn that Messrs. Bell and Daddy, having
satisfied Solicitor Jordan that they were not
cognizant of Mr.. Shaw's intention to pass the
contents of the cases of books consigned by
them to him (under certain oonditions) into
the United States in an irregular way, and
moreover that Mr.. Shaw not having COM
pleted the conditions upon which the goods
were invoiced to him, he having evaded the
conditions and obtained possession wrong
fully from the banker at Montreal to whose
care they were entrusted, the goods could not
be held to be Mr.. Shaw's property, the books,
as still belonging to Messrs. Bell and Daddy,
have consequently been delivered up to Mr..
Daddy by Mr.. Jordan's authority.
