Show Disappearance of a Russian River. The town of Sanitow, in the southeast of Iiu&siit, lms just eufituined a Rorions loss; it has lost a river the River Volga. The water of the river has for Bome time j past been deserting the right arm of the ' stream upon which Saratow is built, and : flowiugexclusively in tho left arm, which is about a mile and a quart er distant from the town. The former bed of the stream is now quite dry, and is used as a road to J convey the passougera and goods which : arrive by the steamer to the town. It ' lias been decided that it is necessary to connect the town with the left arm of the stream by a bridge, the construction of which will cost about 50,000. London Lon-don Graphic. |
