Es-we have read with considerable attention
the very long and somewhat tedious Statement, Of
Gov. Hamilton. in defence Of himself aud Of his
party. which appeared in the Baltimore papers on
Monday last. The paper is really nothing more
than rei,era,ion or s,irring.up of old arguments
and di'Pu,ations familiar to his party aud his
political friends for long time. I, shows very
conelusivey that the Democratic brethren have
not been and are no, likely to be 10 harmony for
some time ye, to come. We are willing. however,
that they should quarrel among themselves as
much and as long as they desire. All we ask Is
that our Republican friends take warning and
avoid falling into the same difheulte, tina, now
beset Gov. Hamilton and his party.

Adding 10 Arabic Soil.

The welcome news has been publish
ed that an artesian well, not far from
Denver, has succeeded in reaching wa
ter. Should this news be true, it is OF
immense moment to the people Of the
United States. For it renders it pos
sible to make arabic land of milliona
and millions of acres Of soil which is
now waterless, or which has but a small
downfall of rain in a short period of the
year. It's the peculiarly Of our west
ern deserts that a very little water,
makes them amazingly fruitful. IT
now seems as if the time iscoming when
all the deserts Of the earth will be ren-s
dered useful to man. The French En-.
gineers have for years past been steadi-
" at work reclaiming the Desert of
Sahara by means of artesian wells. A
great number of these have been sunk
along the western border, $50 of which
are in the province Of Constantine, and
they are progressing steadily towards
the interior Of the desert. M. Jus, who
has for twenty years superintendent
these magnificent works, has recently
reported on this interesting topic, and
among the curious phenomena he no..
tees, is the finding Of fishes and crabs
in these waters atyery great depths.
He says the crabs, when cooked, have
a delicious flavor. It is clear the world
will not have to pay heed to the dread
full forebodings Of Nautilus for many
years to come, for the, retaining Of
deserts by artesian wells would furnish
soil to supply food for hundreds Of mill
ions Of people. Some day no doubt
human ingenuity and industry will find
some means OF utilizing rocky soils.
Perhaps stones and boulders may be
crushed, and proper chemicals added to
make new soil in stony places. And SO
in time it may come to pass thata mold
may cover the granite hills Of New Eng
land which will be as fertile as the rich
river bottoms Of the West The earth
is capable Of supporting twenty times
the number Of its present inhabitants.
It is said if Ireland were as populous
relatively as the Island Of Guernsey, it.
would contain 4O,OOO,OOO Of people.
That it is not equally fruitful and pros,
porous is because Of perverse human in.
situations in the way Of wicked land
laws. - Deaaorest,s Monthly for March.
