EFFECT OF RAILROADS ON WEATHER. The
opinion seems to be gaining strength that the
Pacific Railroad is working great change in
the climate of the Plains. Instead of continu
Gus thoughts, all along the railroad raid now
falls in refreshing abundance. THIS result has
been remarked upon in other sections Of the
West. In Central Ohio, for example, 1t is
said, the climate has been completely revo!u
tioni2ed since iron rails have formed net
work all over that region. In>rai Of the do
structive drouehts formerly suffered there, for
some four or five years there has been rain in
abundance-even more than enough to satisfy
all the wants of farmers. This change is thought
to be the result of an equilibrium produced in
the electrical currents, which has brought
about moro uniform dspensation OF the rain
1t is fact wlthln the observation Of all who
remember ante.rallroad times, that We have
now few or no such thunder storms as We Tor
merly bad in New England The iron rails
which touch and cross each other in every di
rection serve as conductors and equazers of
the electric currents, and so prevent the terri
bic explosions which used to territy US in for
mer years. The Geographic wires which nc
company the iron rails everywhere also act an
important part in diffusing electricity equally
through the atmosphere, thus preventing the
occurrence OF severe thunder storms-Boston |!

IsTHMUS OF DARIEN The construction Of
the proposed canal through the lsthmus OF
Darien is attracting mere attention than ever.
In reference TO the construction OF the cana
the engineering difficulties presented are not
greater than those surrounded III the Suez
Canal. A, Suez not only had the canal t" be
cxcavated through Il rainIeSs desert OF sand
aud shifting sandhills tut fresh water cana
was first required to supply The men and AM
mails employed In tho work. At Darlen the
heavy tropical rains and their wa7hingS will b.
among the most serious diff u ties To he over
come 10 digging the canal. His OF solid rcck
are harder to cut through than hlilOckS OF sand,
but once through the rock the canal Is done
and it is endurinc, while at Suez the work OF
dredging will have to be constantly kept up. At
Sucz every stick of timber aud piece of lumber
Of the thousands of shiploads required on the
work they bad to bring by sea from great dis
taaces At Daren the boundess forests OF the
finest trees will be equal to any demand, as
they have been the greatest impeachment to
the explorations Of the iSthmuS. We say
nothing OF the veins of silver and gold which
lubrlcate the backbo of our Continent all the
way thu ough for We hold that the advantages
suggested ought to be sufficient for the imme'
