Turning Suliarn into a Lake. It seems that the conversion of the Desert of Sahara into au inland soa might not alter all be so much of a blessing to the continent oi All ien as was claimed when the pioj'ect was first broached. At a recent meeting ol the French Geographical Society at l'aris, Dr. (,'osson, a member ot the Institute, combated the scheme with many arguments. He did not believe the climalf o! the interior of Afiica would be changed by the arti ficial sea. Its shores would bo as arid asjthose ol the Medilerraneiau in Tripoli; but if the climate should change, lhe date crop, which is the piiucipal support of the natives, w -iild be ruined. Tho routes of tlie caravans lrora Tun'i and Algiers lo the interior would also be destroyed and the whole inland trade beranged. Dr. Cosson also predicted that the ,1R. , lhe ma88 0f walt.r W0U!d . . . . . produce perturdatiens in the subter ranean currents which leed llio artes ian wells in the Oases, and might cause them to (ail, aim thus entail the liths ol htfn lied of palm trees. His views a lo the climatic influence of a Siiliaiuii Sea were opposed by other member f the Society. A Jludcil Conductor. (Virginia City Chronicle.)

The dredging process is going on slowly, but will fix tho channel so there will be no more trouble in getting oyer the bar. Mr. Uobert Tarter, if Lewisville, Polk comity, has invented a novel idea tor putting stacked grain to the thresher. With the assiMance of oue horse, two men will be able lo keep the largest machine in grain with less labor than six men can do with forks. Dallas Itemizer: Mr. Gold Hub bard, w ho lives about five miles north east ot Dallas, this week brought to our oflico several stalks of wheal which had been affected, and upon exami ation from one to three worms were found in every one of them. They are of a yeilow color, about an eight ot au inch long, and are to be found in the joints of the stalk. Mr. Hubbard gives it a hi opinion that the wire w rm first commences the work ot destruction by depositing eggs in the roots of the wheal and that the worms thai aeeiid the stalk are the result. "Uncle Jimmy" Charleton, who lives in the Sunt urn precinct of Linn county, oppntole Lebanon, reports thai the tarmets nf his section are badly hurl by the win at rust, lie thinks many ot the spring sown field will hardly par tor cutting, and that the crop in his neighborhood can't possibly reach more than half of what it promised to be b.f,re tbe rust struek it.

The reporter was to fall 6,000 feet, float for half a day, and come baek to the city with six columns of matter all ready for the beys up stairs.
