IRRIGA TON IN ANCIENT EGYPT.

fHh4fFA LION IN dNLIENT EG
NJ. Linant has lately explored lake
Maris in central Egypt, which was used
for irrigation in ancient times and was
probably constructed by one or. more of
the Pharaohs. This reservoir was capa-
BILE of irrigating twelve hundred square
miles of lahd-an agricultural achieve
ment well worth studying by farmers
in our day of remarkable engineering
skill. According to NJ. Linant, the lake
covered one hundred and fifty square
miles, and. held its water by an earth
dam thirteen miles in length, sixty
yards wide and ten high. The basin
filed with water was about thirty miles
in length and six miles wide in its widest
place. This is believed to be the largest
artificial reservoir for watering crops
ever constructed. Five thousand years
ago the Egyptians were far advanced in
agriculture, land surveying, engineering
and architecture. Neither the temple
of Thebes, nor the pyramids, nor the
canals and lakes for irrigation and COM
merce could have been made without
considerable knsrwledge.p OF several
sciences reduced to practkae, Herodotus
the father of history, saysyfhe cereals of
that granary of the ancient world re-
turned from one hundred and fifty to
two hundred and fifty fold on the seed
planted. We know very little of what
the human family has done or suffered.
1t has been active from necessity, fight
ing its way from age to age, often falling
back, from some internal defect, as is
witnessed in the nations of Egypt,
Rome, Syria, Greece and India. When
a nation is rising and improving it fat
tens its soil by irrigation; if going down
hill it consumes the earth's natural fer
tility and glories in shedding innocent
blood.

there do not care a straw about him.
People feel that he is, in some respects,
social failure, and they feel, further
that it is his own fault. They laugh at
him because he is vain and selfish and
continues to banker after admiration;
they hold his little foibles up to ridicule;
they use him when it suits them, and
forsake him when it suits them. Per

THE GREET SrHMAE9 r. MEL
Operations preliminary e the project
ed tunnel between England and France
render it probable that the feasibility OF
the great project will be admitted by the
highest engineering authorities IN Eu-
rope. The scope of these operations has
been, mainly, to obtain the requisite
knowledge and material for framing ac-
curate geological charts both OF the Varl-
Gus strata through which the inclined
planes must pass whichsre 10 lead from
the surface of the soil to the level OF the
tunnel itself, and also of those at the bot
tom OF the sea, through which the tun-
mel is to be pierced, if the complete result
of the investigations shall favor the I'M
dertaking.
The attainment of the first Of the OBJ
iects named have presented no particular
/ difficulties, and consisted simply inwork-
1 ing an artesidn shaft nesr Calais, to the
depth of about three hundred feet, and
then proceeding to ascertain, by sound

channel fromfshore to shore, whether the
strata, as ascertined by the land shaft
came ont and responded to the same un

could be. that hey lay in regular success

were to be a,prehended, in boring the

The grand object has been to ascer
