edge of the wilderness" But they
cam to a line of frontier defences
and "they turned again unto Pi-hahi-
roth and went southwards to where
the tide ran high in those days be-
tween the Bitter Lakes and Suez,
and passed through the midst of the
sea into the Wilderness" Soon we
found ourselves between low embank-
ments again in Lake Baleah, and
next came to III Guisr, che thresh-
DID, a hill running from east to west
which rises 20 feet above the desert
and formed the hardest bit of excava-
ton at the making of the canal.
TWENTY-FIVE thousand fellaheen work
ed at this mound, but it required ma
chimes before it was conquered. We
were now approaching Lake Timsah
and encountered an awkward double
curve which was one of the few engi-
n~eeripg plumbers Of the great work.
The slow speed makes steering very
difficult to many ships in a winding
passage, and this is u common stick
ing point. The canal will not be per-
feet until this and other crooked plac-
es are made straight. Lake Timsah
is a fine sheet of water about the size
OF Grasmere in Westmoreland, and
the fresh water canal from the Nile
has covered its western shore with
trees and yerdure. 1t was here that
in 1869 all the flags of Europe were
represented in an international fleet
that Ismall Pasha had gathered to-
gether to inaugurate the completion
of Nj. de Lesseps' great WORK. Is
MALTA, the little town on the slope,
was then intended to become an en-
porium and a port for all the produce
of Egypt. But the hope has not
been realized. The fresh-Water canal
has no been maintained as a trust
worthy nayigable channel, and the
town IS so fcyer-stricken that the
houses are empty and its streets are
silent and srass-groWn. Again we
are near a great biblical site, the
land OF G0schen and the treasure
cities Of PitlIom ard Ramses. The
fresh-Water canal hns renewed the
fertility OF Goschen, but mud built
villages have replaced the state
ly towns. From Lake Timsah we
pushed on, through the desert, by
the Serapeum, where a few big
stones are still TO be found, by the
Chapel of our Lady of the Desert,
where the Holy Family passed in
their fight into Egypt, until we cane
into the Greater Bitter Lake. AS the
sun went down we passed into the
open water and steamed at full speed,
no longer confined 10 one narrow strip
OF deep water. We came close 10 the
other side, where our pilot brought
us up and then [ wrote this present
letter, which | finish at Suez.
Between the Greater and Lesser
Bitter Lakes is a care where again
we felt the insuficiency of the canal
accommodation. Our captain tdgett-
ed about the deck while a dozen
ships from the south went by. We
were a mail ship and our mail flag
foated at the masthead, but no ia
YOUR was shown and we had to
wait the pleasure of the second fleet,

tlOn, l TOOK steamer from Alexandra
to Suez in order to Judge for myself.
Here | am now, % miles from Suez
and SO from Port Slid, anchored in
what was a salt marsh Il years ago,
and is now a spacious inland sea, with
the yellow rays of the rising sun strik-
ing owe the yellow desert Of Asia,
and lighting up the dark clitf-moun-
tain Of Ataka beyond SueZ. A cloud
less sky, and an exhilarating air, a
pleasant captain, and a friendly com
pany have made my s~oiourn on board
the good ship Bokhara very enjoyable.
But | must take my journey in proper
order.
I arrived at Port Said on Sunday
morning. Its western breakwater, con
structed to ward off the silt which a
coast current sweeps down from the
mouths of the Nile, has grown longer
than ever, and looks like a veritable
sea-serpent. This deposit of Nile
mud and sand at Port Said entrance
is the greatest danger which threa-
tens the future Of the canal, but
the huge steam dred4es Of the
company do good work, and have re-
Gently maintained with ease a depth
in the channel of 2Sft. This is more
than sufficient, as vessels drawing
over 255ft. are obliged to Tighten their
cargoes before entrance Of the canal,
the regulation depth Of which in the
fair waterway is 26tt, 1t has been
before mentioned in The Times that
the only permanent way Of getting
rid of this deposit would be to erect
small breakWaters to the west near
Damietta, which would drive tie
sand-laden current out to sea. But
as long as the undertaking is in the
hands of a private company anxiety
for a good annual dividend will stand
in the way. | found Port Said in more
than its usual canal fever. Every
steamer that had touched at Bombay
or Alden, which means practically
every westward bound vessel, was
forced to pass in quarantine. Even
the pilots were not allowed on
board. So the whole population Of
coal merchants and ship chambers
and steam line agents were divided
between Indignation at the folly Of
such quarantine arrangements and
eagernesS to make money by the
ownership of a steam launch. Thirty,
40, and even so francs an hour
were being paid for these little vessels,
which were necessary for the pilots
who had to direct the quarantined
ships, Lucky men were pointed out
to me who had made several thousa d
pounds by this lucrative trade, and
unfortunate ships were mentioned that
had paid as much as $500 for a launch
over and above the heavy canal dues.
Even the Freshly Water Canal question,
all important as it is to Port said,
was forgotten in the excitement, and
a Canon of the Church Of England
called people in vain to a Sunday SER

the big room of the hotel. AS we
came from the west, we could take
our pilot in the ordinary way. After

Nile. But the streams we're allowed
to be blocked by sand, the sea broke
in in many places, and it has now
become a vast marsh, the home of fish
and wildfowI. But close below the
surface soil lies rich mould, and the
stones of ancient towns testify to form
er cultivation and suggest a return to
it in an enterprising future. Were
the Dutch ever to come to Egypt the
series of salt marshes, which lin its
shore from Alexandria to Port Said
would be converted into wealth-pro-
ducing p0lIers in a very few years.
But to come back to the canal. |
was clad to see how much Of the
banks are now cased with stone,
Trees grow with difficulty in the sand
and their roots suffer from the salt
water. A sandy bank is carried by
the wash Of the steamers into the
deep water channel. But this stone
casing re>ists the wash, and when it
is complete, the company will be able
to increase without danger their res
ulation speed. We met with no OBJ
stacle for two hours. In this great
highway of nations we saw no lite
save the wild marsh birds and the
waste of water stretching away to the
yellow desert. There are cares or
passing places every few miles, where
the deep waterway is widened from
81 to so yards and sometimes more,
and a signalman with a telegraph sys-
TEN stops or allows to pass the ships
according as the next run is free or
occupied. We passed the fir / gare
successfully, but at the second the
ball was hoisted above the flag, which
in canal language means "go into the
siding" Nothing came by before
sunset, when all traffic ceases, and
we lay in the quiet moonlight with
every intention to proceed at sunrise.
But when | came up next morning to
see the start / found a fleet of great
ships, each with its noisy little tug
and yellow FLAG at the masthead, slip
ping along in single file. 1t was a
grand way Of realizing the work Of
the canal. Nineteen vessels went by,
averaging, our captain told me, 1900
tons burthen. All save two carried
the British flag. Three were crammed
with pilgrims. ~forecastle, m%aindeck,

Even the boats were full Of them,
and from under a canvas awning
peeped the yelled faces Of women.
One lot were Russian pilgrims from
the Caucasus, savage looking fellows
in fur caps ana black cloaks, theothers
were Algerilns aud Moors in turban
and burnous. The rest of the ships
were cargo laden, % and % feet IN the
water. All went by safely till The
18th, the "Scotch Greys," came. She
went Il yard or two out Of her course
and at once was aground. She had
passed US, but others had still to come,
and there was nothing for it but to
wait till the "Scotch Greys' got free.
Hawsers were made fast to stern and
bow on either bank, and afteran hours
shouting and steaming and winching,
the big ship swung into place again,

waste places of our land, and Gods
blessings will be upon us, in the
early and latter rain, and the fruit
full season.
Our purposes and principles will
bear the criticisms of all litera-
ture, with the experience of all ages.
and stand approved in the light of
inspiration. Our cause is the cause
of God and humanity, and when
they shall have fully triumPhed,
then will be consumated the prom.
ised blessing of the Son of God, in
the millennial reign, and God shall
dwell among his people and own
them as his children.
To Patrons everywhere, let me
say to you, we have all to gain and
nothing to lose in the propagation
of our principles.
Our Order is educational and
practical. Let each one make the
small ncsseSary sacrifice in the
good work, and glory will crown
the whole to us, in the blessing to
be heaped upon us by coming gen
erations.
Above, | use the word millen-

when we shall enjoy the practical
results of our principles, in the bet
terment of our fellows, in all things
pertaining to their temporal wei
fare, and spiritual too.
Look not upon your leaders as
fanatics, but as philanthropists of
the first order, for they contemplate
the greatest good to the greatest
number, and may | not say for all
time and eternity, too?
The heart is elate with JOY that
understands our principles when
it feels how firmly they are being
planted in the hearts of the people
of the United States. The gent

industry of thousands of sincere
advocates, the tree will grow and
produce abundant fruit
go for thousand tongues in
spired with the truth of our princi-
piles, to talk to the masses and ed
ucate them up to sense of their
rights, duties, and privileges, and
that every one be made to feel the
responsibilities of a free American
citizen.

FROM TEXAS,
Red River County.

Editor Patron. | find there is
great cause for encouragement to
farmers. The Order of Patrons OF
Husbandry, by their untiring exer-
tons, are beginning to move up the
tardy members of our National
Legislature to sense of weighty
responsibilities and imperative du-
ties. They begin to feel that the
masses are no longer to put off by
specious pretentions, consequently
they begin to indicate a disposition
to divide the burdens, and Law upon
others part of the unjust burdens
borne heretofore by the farmers.
The thunderings of the political
elements are falling upon disquieted
nerves of demagogues and tricks
tiers; the people are becoming alive
to their rights, and are beginning to
act upon our great principles of
Cooperation, all conspiring to make
things move, and continue to move
until there shall be a purifying of
the body polite.
We are into the great fight, and
thoroughly committed to our noble
cause, let there be no retrograde
movements, but let us go on until
every wrong be removed, and JUS
tice is done to and for all classes of
our people.
Away with high tariffs that
discriminate in favor of few to
the detriment and injury of the
many. Let the ball move, till rail
roads shall be creatures, subserv-
ing the purpose of their creation.
Let the National banking system
be done away with, and no longer
be curse heaping burdens upon
our industries.
Let political corruption be ex-
posed wherever it may be found.
Let the government be supported
by direct tax. Let us curtail.
thousand fold, the patronage of
government.
As these reforms are taking place

there are signs of weakness that

Resolved, That the National
Grange recognizes in the publica-

pecially in the papers published IN
