FLOODING THE GREAT DESERT.

The great undertaking of a ship canal
across the Isthntus Of Darien seems paled
into insignifcance beside another gi-
gantic project which is now assuming
definite proportions in the Old World
1t is likewise watcry in its nature, being
nothing less than the flooding Of the
rreat African desert from the Atlantic
Long ago French engineers proposed to
their Government to turn in the waters
of the Mediterranean upon the low -Iy ng
lagoons and salt marshes in the southern
portion Of Algeria, an irredeemable viii
derness. The district was thoroughly
surveyed, and the plan pronounced en-
tirely feasible, and if carried out would
result in a saltwater lake of sufficient
size and depth to be Of material benefit
to the surrounding country. Hence
originated the more splendid scheme
mentioned above.
The Sahara, commonly so called, COM
prises an enormous extent of country. 1t
is computed to contain over three mill
ion square miles, being larger than the
entire United States. But this very ex-
tensive tract is not as a whole sterile and
uninhabitable. The central portion alone
or about onc-ffth of its entire limits
is the real desert. The surface of this
desolate sandy wilderness has by recent
exploration been found to be in fact 4
deep and continuous depression having
an average depth below the sea level Of
more than two hundred feet. The pro
posal to fill this vast basin of perhaps
six hundred thousand square mile
with water from the Atlantic ha
met with ready support in leading com
mercial and scientific circles of Franc
and England. That it was once ages ag'
the bed of a sea or arm of the Atlantic i
proved conclusively by the remains o
marine life with which its sands ar
mixed
An English engineer, Mr.. Donald Mac
kenzie, commissioned by the Londo
Board of Trade, has just completed
survey Of the desert coast. His expIors
tions offer abundant testimony to sus
tain the above theory. Adry channel, til
bottom of which is two hundred feet b.
low, and with its sides rising five hundre
feet above the surface of the sea, VIZ
discovered leading into the basin-wh'
was once undoubtedly the entrance frol
the ocean into this channels spoken
by Mr. Mackenzie as miniature Gil
raltar." Between two rocky promo
tories several hundred feet in height an
distant apart about two and a La
miles, a sand bank has been throw
up by some unknown natural cause
probably by the action of the ocean Gu
rent which sets in directly upon Il
shore. This bank is only three hundr
feet in width, and from ten to thir
feet in depth above high water. 1t forl
the sole impediment to the readmisai
of the Atlantic waters into this Nigh
basin. The astonishing facility wi
which the Sahara can thus be flood
and transformed into great inland S
taking these reports to be accurate, c
be readily perceived. All that is
quired is to cut ship canal Of tn
hundred feet in length through tn
sand dunes that close this supposed I
ner mouth of the channel.
There is a peculiar kind of grand'
and audacity in connection with
scheme that strikes the mind with s
