PRoJEcr FOR Tug CIVILIZATION OF AFRICA.
uondon Daily Ne,cs. A bold project for
The civilization Of Africa Is announced. under
the sanction of Captain Sir John II. Glover.
Mr.. r. n. Fowler, and other wcIl-known
gentlemen. This Is the formation of a canal
for commercial purposes from the mouth OF
the River Bella, on the Atlantic In the neigh
borhood Of Cape JUDY and Cape Bajador,
opposite the Canary islands, to the northern
bend Of the Niger at Timbuctoo, distance
of 740 miles. Such highway would open
up the African continent to the world.
and it is believed that no formidable
obstacle opposes its construction, but
that the conformation of the great
Desert of Sahara ftyors the scheme. For
G30 miles of the distance there is great
hollow, supposed to be $50 feet below
the level of the Atlantic, which was probably
at one time covered by the sea. This low
country Is separated from the coast by a
broken ridge of about thirty miles, through
which the River Bella runs for twenty-five
miles; so that all that would be necessary in
order to reach it Is to deepen the channel OF
the river, cut through the ridge, and let the
Atlantic fall into the vast arid basin. In this
way fine sheet of water would be formed,
the climate would be improved, the country
would become moro fertile fer plsturage, and
agriculture and commerce would be carried
into the heart Of Africa.

to the Emperor OF Austria that the position

WASHINGTON, April 13.-Another fraud in

light, the populations this time relating TO
the manufacture and repair of mail-bIgs.
The evidence shows that parties have been
mutiIating good bags at certain points desig-
mated as depositaries for their repair and
charging for repairing them. By these
means the Government has been unlawfuly
mulcted TO the extent Of about $4,000
annually. There have beer heretofore about
fifty designated depositaries for mail bags,
but since the discovery of the frauds the
Pos:master-General has determined to re-
