The importance of the advantages lo bo gained by the accomplishment of this vast enterprise can hardly bo overestimated. Soudan has a popu- lation of about 33,000.000 of tho most intellectual and energetic of all the African races. They have successive- ly been brought under the influence of Carthaginian, Roman, Kgyptian, and Mohammedan civilization. They have formed themselves into inde- pendent states, ami possess numerous walled towns of commercial imp or- lance* They have established laws and education, and stamped out many of the worst forms of pagan supersti- tion. They cultivato tho soiL and carry on several branches of jnanu- facture with remarkable suocesl Tho people of Soudan receive their fjupply of Kttropean merchandise acnis tho Sahara from the ports of Mojrocco, Algeria, Tunis, and Trip- li-ja sys- tem of communication with thi outer world which has existed for (thous- ands of years. <'aravAns proceeding by any of these routes can onljf make one journey a year, traversing about 2,000 miles of mountainous an(l dilli- I cult country before the nearest mar- •relief kot of Soudan is reached, j These j paths, formerly used by thtj mer- chants of antiquity, now seijve the Arab caravans. \ot withstanding all these ditlleultics, tlie annual vhluo of the tratio between the northern ports and Soudan amounts to about lu,000,- ooo. An easier mode of transit! would evidently had to a large development of this trade. The distance from Cape 'Jliby to Tinibnct.oo, on the t'pper Niger, is about f<00 miles of almost level coun- try, thus being 1,200 miles shorter than the present routes. On Uio line proposed by Mr. Mackenzie there are no lesfl than forty-two stations, with plenty of water. He thinks that car- avans eouhl make three journeys a year by it with greater ease than ono by the present roads. Therefore, without any outlay whatever for roads, an annual trade of J?12,(M)(T,000 would soon bo established.

From the beginning It has increased to a^n annual production of 14,500,000 barrels of crude oil* The first export was in 1*61, of $27,000 barrels, valued at $1,000,000, ami the export Of petro- Icurrf in the year 1877 was, in round numbers, *G2,000,000. Tho annual product of petroleum to-day*—crude and refined—is greater in valoe than the entire production of iron, and Is more than double that of the anthra- cite coal of tho -^tatc of Pennsylvania, and exceeds the gold and silver pro- duct of the whole country. As an article of export it is fourth, and con* tests closely for the third rank. Oitr leading exports are relatively as fol- lows : Cotton annually 4 from $17. r ii- 000,000 to $227,000,000 ; flour from $09,000,000 to $130,000,000 ; pork and its products (bacon, ham and lard) from $:>7,000,000 to $*2,000,000 ; and petrolouin from $48,000,000 to $C2 r 000,000. Tho total export of petro- leum from 18C1 to and including 1877 ! (10 years) has been $442,098,968, cus- tom house valuation. From the beiK sources oi information there are at this time 10,000 oil wells, producing arid drilling, which, at a cost of $5,000 par well, would make an investment of **0,000,000 in this branch of the busi- ness. Tankage now existing of a ca- pacity of 6,000,000 barrels cot^l $2,000,000, and $7,000,000 bas been invested in about 2,000 miles of pipe lines connected with the wells. TbJo -^entiro investment for tho existing oil production, including purchase money of territory, is something ovar $100,000,000, whicli cannot be lessen- ed much, if any, for as wells cease bo produce now ones have been con** stantly drilled to take their place, i *— <*«.-** | A Qiestion of Damages. ] pome lawyers take very practical vibtvs of casou in which they- arc re- tained.
