what is the black soil along the Nile River

Indians puke.

Since this is not my area of expertise, I searched Google under the key words "Nile 'black soil'" to get these possible sources:

http://www.prntrkmt.org/geography/nile.html

However, looking for just "black soil" I found:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_soil
http://www.indiaagronet.com/indiaagronet/soil_management/CONTENTS/Management%20of%20black.htm
http://columbia.thefreedictionary.com/Black+Soil

Although these latter sources are from different areas, the makeup of the soils might be similar.

I hope this helps a little more. Thanks for asking.
