Drainage in England.

Nothing, it seems, has so affected the
English climate as the drainage which the
agricultural population originally found nee
essasy The ''rainy skies'' of which the
ancient chroniclers tell us-the unparall-
eled fogs which were so inexpressibly
dreary to stranger-have disappeared. In
the countrG, November is the only really fog
gy season; and in the cities, the dull obscur-
ing clouds are not attributed entirely to at
mospheric causes. The humidity of the eli
mate throughout England has greatly modi-
fed within two centuries. The increasing
dryness of climate is attributed by many to
the fact that the Gulf Stream has borne
more directly upon English shores during the
last century than before; but the larger class
believe that agricultural energy has done
much more than have any geographic altera-
ations. The over zeal of the farming popu-
lation to get rid of the superhuous water in
former times has resulted in some little detri-
ment to the interests of their owu class. To
such perfection has drainage been carried
that the whole country sheds rain like the
time to sink to its natural reservoirs, but is
hastened away in pipes and drains to the river
channels, overflows them and destroys crops.
A general dryness has been fostered by this
artificial system of channels The rainfall is
not as copious as in former times, on account
