THE INLAND SEA IN ALGERIA.

At the last sitting OF The Academy OF Sciences
in Paris, N. de Lesseps stated that Captain
Roudaire, who had lately sent In q COM
munication to the Academy OF Sciences on the
formation OF an inland sea in Algeria had returned
to Paris in consequence OF mission intrusted to
him In the provinces, and that he thanked the
Academy for the interest 1t had evinced IN the
matter. Nj. de Lesseps added that on the war
budget being presented sum Of $4,000 francs
would be applied Tor 70 cover the expenses of the

with the operation OF cutting through the Isthmus

not only OF the Governor General OF Algeria
but also OF the Bey OF Tunis, equally interested
IN the success OF the enterprise, and to whom
moreover, belongs the ground through which the
canal is 10 be cut. The Prime Minister Of the Bey
OF Tunis General Kerredne, Is strongly in favor OF
the plan, which Will be equally profitable to Tunis
as ~ Is TO Algeria, both countries having an equal
snare OF coast OF the new sea-
SO far M de Lessep's statement; but at the very
same sitting paper was received from NJ Ch.
Houvvet which, at the first blush at least, seems
very likely to dash the hopes OF the enterprlsng
projectors. The writer cOolly observes that the
Mediterranean may OF course be tapped as they
propose, and immense inland sea formed, but
that vast surface OF evaporation Will thus be ex
posed to the SUMS rays, and that as the loss OF
water by this action can only be replaced by the
sea through the canal the end OF the whole opera
tion will be the formation OF thick crust OF salt
AZ the bottom, whereby all navigation will be
been spent TO create gigantic salt pit and moth

ACCIDENT ON THE FLUSHING AND NORTH
SIDE RAILROAD.

As the I'VE minutes to five p. M. train, on the
Flushing ana Northside Railroad, was passing the
crossing at Woodside it struck a coach containing
party returning from a funeral at Calvary,
killing the driver and fatally njuring others Of the
party The facts OF the case are substantially
these Mrs. Curby, OF Harlem with her husband
and TWO children, buried one OF their children at
Calvary yesterday. After the burial some mis-
understanding arose concerning the deeds OF
burial, when Mr.. Curby notified his wife that
he would remain and settle the difficulty He
placed his wife and children IN the carriage
OF friend and sent them to their home. As the
driver was about to cross the crossing at Wood
side a gentleman on the opposite side OF the track
warned him OF the danger. at the same time the
engineer blew his whistle for danger. He needed
neither, but drove madly on. AS the two iront
legs Of the horse crossed the track the engine
struck the horse, Killing 1t instantly and hurting
the occupants of the coach to different parts OF
the road. The driver terribly mangled and
lived but short time alter. Mrs. Curby received
a severe cut and internal INJURIES which Will
prove fatal. The scalp of one OF the chidren's
head was almost completely torn or All the par
ties reside in 109th street, Harlem. The driver
was employed by p. slavin, of Thirteenth street
between Second and Third avenues. They were
all kindly cared for by the officials Of the road.
