The Telegraph in the African Deserts.

A correspondent writing from Berba.
in tropical Africa. says: lit was singu-
lar to meet with the telegraph in the
heart of the desert between Aryab and
Berba; not tue telegraph put up An
working order as we see il in Europe,
but all the appurtenaneeso of that insrru
ment of civilization carried on the backs
of hundreds of camels, which laden with
coils of wire and hollow iron posts, trod
their toilsome path through the burning
sand. Every now and then we met one
of these poor beasts, which hoverweighted
and broken down by the weight of his
load, had fallen Oh the ground and been
abandoned a victim to the vultures. All
this relegraphio gear was marked ''Se-
mems Brothers, London, and was en-
route TO khartoum, from which town it
will be forwarded on to span the desert
between KOrdOfan and Darfour. A good
many lives will probably be sacrificed
before the line can be considered open,
as the Arabs, who eagerly steal every
piece of iron they can meet with for
their spear points, have to be very Sc
yerely punished before they leave off
cutting down the poles. However, this
difficulty once got over, the telegraph
will be as easily worker as one between
khartoum and Cairo, which when it
was first laid down was continually be-
ing interrupted.-London Times.
