We hjMieve tiiat, tested by ibese staudards, the prices .fixed are fair and just. * ' The Goverrvment does, not seiz» or im press produce offered for sale at the prices thus assessed. It is only that offered for sale j»t higher prices that is seised, and’ this brings the policy of the, Government in direct conflict with the selfish interests of speculators and'extortionists. We be lieve that all the practical evils of the sys tem &re due to. their factious.opposition to it for selfish and unworthy purposes. The articles of which most -complaint is made in this connection are bacon and i,wheat or flour. Are not the prices at which these articles.are assessed sufficiently re munerative ? Bear, it in mind that no man. is compdhd'to sell at these prices.; hels'on Wells In the Deserts. - The French are acquiring great influ ence among the desert tribes of Algeria,' by the useful European-arts, especially that of boring for water. -Beneath certain sec tions of the Great Desert there is eitlier.a subterranean lake or river ; and this-has been long known to the native Arabs, among whom there are professiqnal well- sinkers, who form a. numerous body en- joying much Consideration; their work being of a very dangeraui character. They excavate in the ground, and when t hey reach a certain depth they know by the cob r of the soil if water is below. A thin crust covers the' subterranean sureum, and when it is brokeu the water in it rush es up with the velocity of pretoleuin in American *oiI wells. In the—south of Algeria, the well sinkers, endeavor to find a subterranean stream, which is sometimes tapped at the depth, of about 550 # feet. Colonel Dumas, of tho French army, thus describes the modo o: excavating them : “ The section is in a square form. One workman alone works at it; add as he advances, ho supports the 8ides with four plamks of paimtree. By certain infallible signs—for instance, when tho soil becomes black and moist—he knows that he it?near the spring. He then fills bis ears and nostrils with wax, that he may not be suf focated by the uprising deluge ot vjater, and fastens a rope under his arms, hiving previously arranged to be drawn up on a given signal At the last stroke of the pick, the water often rises so rapidly that tho unhappy well-sinker is drawn up in sensible. These inexhaustible springs are the common property of the village’ which has discovered them, and are conveyed to the gardens in conduits of hollowed palm- tree trunks. It is these springs which are the foundation of the greater number of oases of Sahara.” Iu 1858, when French, conquests had extended to the .vast and mysterious sblitudo called the Great Desert, well-boring and einking appara tus were introduced, and astonished the Arabs by tJjeir.simpUcityand effective ness. In five j-ears ending 1859—’60, fifty wells have been opened ; o0,000 palms and 1,000 fru jt trees have been planted; many jaser have Revived from the ruia caused by a failure of springs,; and two villages have been created in. the Desert; the total* ex pense. not having been much, more than £20,000 sterling, which has boom repaid by taxes and voluntary contributions from.tho Arabs. Col. Dumas observe^: “Such works give us ten limes more influence than our military victories. The. waters bubbling up from theso borings aro generally charg ed with sulphate of soda, magnesia, and lime, either as a chloride or a sulphate, which makes -them bitter and salt ; but the A rabs are only too glad to have any kind of water, and the palms and other vegeta ble products of the Doaert thrive on’it.” The borings of SidlSinmn andK'Sour pre sent the curious phenomenon of live fish.
