Turning the Deserts of sahara and Aus
traIia Into Great Seas.

1850 ]
Few people realize how completely
of late years the surface aspect of this
weakened old globe of ours has been
altered and improved. The world Of
today, in fact, differs from the world
Of our ancestors much as a society
lady, in all the glory of fold and frill
and ~furbelow, differs from her savage
sister running wild in pestilential
woods. AS art has transformed the
one, s> has it the other. Only the
MINI Rachel who has made the
earth, n no exactly beautiful for
ever ct least a pleasant and healthful
place wherein to dwell, is no charlatan
with q drayload of cosmetics and a
glib tongue, but a civil engineer, own
ing nothing more harmful than a few
mysterious looking instruments and a
measuring tape. And the marvel of it
all is this-that what has been done
is but an ininitesimal fraction of that
which may, and doubtless will, be
done. Who can doubt, for instance,
hat the great Sahara desert-that
mole upon the worlds face-will M
day be but q memory? 1t was an n
land sea once. 1t would not be a
very difficult matter to convert it into
one again. A can al 60 miles long,
connecting with the Atlantic the vast
depression which runs close up to the
coast nearly midway between the Goth
and goth parallels of latitude, would
do the business beautifully. The water
would not, Of course, cover the entire
surface of the desert. Here and there
are portions lying above sea level.
These would become the islands of the
new Sahara e What would be the
results that would ensue upon this stu
pendous transformation? Some would
be good, and some bad. Among the
latter may be mentioned the probable
destruction of the vineyards of south
ern Europe, which depend for their ex-
lstence upon the warm, dry winds from
the great African desert. AS some COM
pensation for this, however, the mer-
camille marines of the nations affected
would be enabled to gain immediate
and easy access to vast regions now
given over to barbarism, and a series
Of more or less flourishing seaport
towns would spring up all along the
southern be ders of Morocco and AL
geria, where the western watershed Of
the Nile sinks into tn desert, and on
the northern frontier Of the Congo
Free State. In a simila manner the
greater portion of the central Austria
liam desert, covering an area of fully
10000 square miles, might be flood
ed. The island-continent would then
be converted into a gigantic oval dish,
Of which the depressed central portion
would be covered with water and only
the rim" inhabited.-London Mail.

ClCERO'S WIT.
Exasperating Retort Not Modern Feature
of Jury Trial.

The retort eXasperating is not q
modern feature of a trial by jury. In
the case against Verres-one of the
great trials of antiquity-in which Cic-
ero appeared for the prosecution and
Hortensius for the defense, Cicero
made a typical excursion against his
opponent. Hortensius was known, in
violation of the law, which required
the services of advocates at Rome to
be gratuitous, to have received as a
present from his client a valuable i'm
age of the S"hinx, II Of the spoils Of
his government in Sicily. While Cic-
ero was examining a witness, Horton
sius made a sally. you speak in rid
dies" said he. II cannot understand
you" That is odd" Cicero rejoined,
'for you have a Sphinx at home to
solve them" Cicero's repartees were
seldom without energy. When Clodius
had been acquitted of the charge Of
sacrjlege by jurors who had been
bribed to bring in a favorable verdict,
Cicero, who appeared as the defender
of the republic, left the corrupt jurors
and the favorers and supporters Of that
verdict without a word to say for
themselves. He overwhelmed Clodius
in the senate to his face in a set
speech. Then followed a duel Of words
in which Cicero was all along the VIC
tor. Clodius, among other insinua-
tons, said: you have bought a
house" You would think hat he
said" retorted Cicero, you have
bought a jury" They did not trust
you on their OATH" said Clodius. Yes"
said Cicero, twenty-five Jurors did
trust me. Thirty-one did not trust
you, for they took care to get their
money beforehand" Here there was
a burst of applause, and Clodius broke
down and remained silent. There is
nothing coldly classic in these ex-
amples of Cicero's ready wit; they
might have come from a latter-day
master of thrust and parry.-Youth's
Companion.
