The Desert Of Sahara.

Among all the great undertakings of lhe world it seems as fl ere long the Des- c-t of Sahara will De taken in hand by some bold projectors, SO as to try to turn it to some useful purpose. South Of the desert Is Sondan, with population of SJgCg coo of semi barbarous but not sav- ars peor!e. They produce palm oil, cocoa uu's. dates, fgs, wheat, corn, vans, beans, toaA-co, cotton, indigo, etc.; ana there is a trade with Algiers, by horses and camels .f go 090 600 annually, consisting Of gold dust, altar of roses, gum arabic, ivory, in- 6,go and ostrich feathers, in exchange for cotton goods, cutlery and weapons. In the whole region. however, surrounding :,l. Sahara there is an estimated popula- i,ou Of I5O,0O0 GOO, and there are various nroi.cts on foot to open up this country by railway communication, advantage being taken of water transportation by the lakes and rivers to reduce the expens. es of continuous communication. The British, French and Germans are anxious 10 open up commercial relations w'ts these vast populations.
 The desert of Sahara is 5000 miles lonE and 1000 miles wide, and though called deser.. there is much of it that Is cultlvate' here and there, and there are occasions high ridges, some of them with groWt c,tiuber. When the sea breezes, ID pass inr into the interior, loose their moisture ths air becomes very dry though by n means unhealthy, and the soil become sterile. Ii is seriously contemplated | flood inc Sahara from the Mediterraneai and thus bring an inland lake into tn dry region. which would promote moistur and probably in time alter the whole cI
 natic conditions of the country and brln Into cultivation large tracts of fertile so that ooly need water to be tr2ittll. It
 estimated by French engineer that u building of railroad across the Saha would be q much less formidable unde taking than the Pacific Railroad was, ar there are sigRs that capitalists are lool Ing in that direction for new enterpris

Surgery Extraordinary |.

Instrument Gf ResuscitatIon

A Frenchman has the credit of invent. ing an apparatus for eiding in the resus. citation of persons apparently drowned, or who from any other cause have been temporarily deprived of animation. It consists of cylinder of sheet Iron large enough to contain the body of an adult person. It is closed at one end, and the inanimate individual is inserted, feet foremost, in the receptacle as far as the neck, round which there is placed pad oed diaphragm, fastened to the cylinder so as to De airGght. An air pump, at- tached To an opening in the tube, creates ] a partial vacuum, and teen the outer at- mosphere, by its own pressure, forces it's
 way into the lungs oy the mouth and nos l lrils, which are left eXposed By re- yersed actiol of he pump the air is al. 1 lowed to re-enter the cylinder, and respi.
 ration Is thereby re-established A glass
 plate inserted Tn the iron casing enables
 the operator to watch the movements o the chest, which rises and falls IS in life
 wi,h the working of the pump. The ac tion may be repeated, it's stated, eignteei
 tineh in Il minute, an exact imitation o
 natural breathing being thus produced.

NEW YORK.
The Sun Comedies the State to the Re-
publicans.
NEW York. Nov 12-The official canvass of
the returns of the late election in New York
county, which was to have begun to-day, has
been prevented until legal advice can be OBJ
tanned by an alleged technical illegality in the
returns.
The New York Telegram seys that informa-
ton from all sources goes to show that the Re
publican State ticket has carried the State eX-
cept for State engineer. The returns now be-
ing canvassed in Albany seem to add to the
nlaiorities of all the candidates. Wendall, for
State treasurer leads the ticket, excepting, OF
course, Cornell.
When the Board of County Canvassers were
about to begin canvassing returns OF the late
election today, one of their number objected to
the counting of the vote on the ground OF pos.
sible illegalty of the return, inasmuch as 1T
did not appear from the return proposed to be
canvassed that the officers voted for were on
SCRATCHED or Irregular" tickets, no ballots
appearing upon the return, as required by law:
The ballot, he maintained, should be pasted
on the return and the number of votes cast for
that ballot should be written partly on that
ballot and continued on the RETURN as decided
by Judge Davis's charge yesterday IN the case
of the indicted Election Inspectors. The
Board, he contended, would render itself Ia
BILE to indictment if they proceeded to canvass
such returns, as they were not in conformity
with the election law. a recess was taken to
get the opinion of the corporation counsel in
regard to the matter.
A Defeat Conceded.
NEW YORK, Nov. 12-The News says Clark
son n Potter stated that he thought at one
time he was elected Lieut.. Governor, but judg-
ing from the late returns he fears the whole
Republican State ticket except Soule is
elected.

Boy Drowned in Biddeford.
BIDDEFoRD, Nov. 12.-This morning about
eight O'Clock two French boys named Frank
Lapointe and Biddo Laforme, the latter about
fifteen years old, started in boat, the tide be-
ing high, to go up the river between the York
and Laconia mills. The two boys had gone
above the first race way on the Laconia side
and were turning, when By some means La
forme fell overheard. He was pretty good
swimmer and struck out for the east side, the
men on that side throwing him boards, etc.
He had nearly reached the shore, when from
some unexplained cause he turned about and
commenced to swim back, when he sank. His
body had not been recovered up to noon today
