The rainless districts of the New -World
comprise a tract of country along the coast of
Peru, and a part of CentralAmerlat, Lower
California and to Table-land of MoxiCo..On
the Eastern Continent they consist ofan enor-
Moue tract: conntry, 1200 kites wide, corn
ihencing in "Africa near : the Atlantic coast ,
and exp e nding in a north-ftsterly direeticin
acroasnbarly to the . river Indus; and another
tractnearly asflarge, 'north of the Himalaya
mountains, [nein ng eTable-land of Thibet,
the Desert of Cobl, ands part of Mongolia.,
The *tikes di4riet of Peru is situated in
the region of; the South-east trade winds=
These mwindsbearlabundant moisture across
the plains of South America to the foot of the
Andes; but in crossing this chain of high ,
mountains, their meisture is all precipitated
ori the eastern decdivity; caused by the prox
imity of the clench LS their snowy tops, by
which thit vapor in the clouds is condensed
:into drops and falls In the tenni of rani, snow
'Or hail. ,To understand this subject fully, it
must be remembeted thitt a decrease - ot, tem
4ierature is alwaysitecessary to a fall- of rain.
.Therefore, as soon / as the clangs cross these
:inotunains and begin to 'recede from them, the
influence of their cold tieing no longer felt the
;temperature will rise, which will prevent the
fall of rain' byincreasing their capacity for
retaining more moisture! consequently no rain
'falls on the coast of Peru.
1 . The rainloss district of Northern Africa is
a desert region, the intense. heat of which dis
perses the clouds that the moist winds from
the Atlantic and Mediteranelan cause to blow
'over it—lf high mountains with their snow
clad tops, were placed upon this desert by
which a fall of temperature .would be produc
ed, then it would not be rainless. .
The rainleis districts of Central Asia lie to
the north,ol the Hinialuyamountains. This
lofty range arrests the moist sonth-west winds

MT VOCATION.
I have been hunting my vocation eversinco
I was eleven years of age, I started on the
theory that every person has a vocation Raley
would only study their adaptation to certain
pursuits before engsgi ig In them; but some
how I cannot succeed la finding out mine.
In the4l3 rat place, I, as a school girl *as
rather obtuse, what little I ever mastered came
not to me without much exertion.'

poor I had to apply myselfdUigentiy or class
recitations paid dearly for it. •
How snipe .of the girls ever made even a
'third rate recitation, was more than my hum
ble mind could comprehend; for 'even : l-wih
attentive care I could not begin 'to' Compete
with. hem, when I knew they only resiitheir
lessons over barely once.
To advance my stupidity I was afflicted with
Wilfulness, when even the Telicher who was
a, yroung" gentleman would ask" me queitions,
iffy blushing face would look likes pipin ap

Wotild frantically strive to catch the idea cal
led Mit but would only Succeed in -getting
hold of the tall end of it.
I could think of everything not connected
with the lesson, and . recall with remarkable
brilliancy every unnecessary idea.
Thenl was "tall ada flag staff," and com
pleted my growth very early—so early that
while I was the youngest.pnpil in school, I
was the only one dignified by the title of miss.
I sympathize with those who get an early
growth especially if they are largo—they are
to bgpitied. I' never could keep control of
all my person at once. My feet were always
i n an ni e bedy , e wily ; treading on their'a or
kicking their shins, end diverti and sundry
other performances not noted for elegance or
style; then 'I was an adept hi falling down,

wards music. Oh ! yes music, divine music.
I would become a musician. I ran the scales
up and I ran the - Scales down. I Lad found
my vocation. I tortured the keys in every
imaginable style. I was going to conquer the
world in a short time; but on being asked to
play for company I discovered I - had not. for

of trembling. Oh Ioh! it was no better than
reading—aloud, the lump was there in my

was obliged to' ive it up in despair.
Then next came along a handsome stran

found it at last, I wdhder why I never thought
of that before. It Ise wife, that's my vocation.
I got all the sermons on matrimony 1 could,
read "lesions to young people," and resolved

FOR ISOS=TKE DAILY AND
WEEKLY TELEGRAPH.
The conventions, to norifinate candidates
for President and Vice President of the United
States, and also to. place in nomination the
candidate for Auditor General and Surveyor
General of this State,'have been called, and
in the course of lesi than three months both
political parties will persent their respective
candidates to the suppyrt of the American
people. A country still in imminent peril is
to be saved by the success of the Republicans
in 1668. The grand question is to be settled
tor free government or for anarchy; for last
ing peace or for another war, as to , whether
Union men or ex-rebels shall dictate the recon
struction: The battle of the war is continued
in the, political arena. Our enemies have
consolidated under a treacherous President to
wield every energy that desperation can sum
mon, to dominate the land to the ideas ofthe
ex-c.onfederacy. These men are using the
main engines of popular power; and. are put
ting forth unprecedented exertions to circu
late newspapers that misrepresent the doing
of the-Republican party.
In order to dd our part of the work, the
proprietor of the DULY AND WEEKLY TELE.
GRAM has concluded to make proposals that
will enable our friends to extend the circula
tion everywhere. The position and influence
of the TELEGRAPII is well known. As a paper

height of forty-five feet. It contains 2,200,
pipes, two banks of keys; ,and thirty-five
