The Very LATEST NorI0x.-Some newspa-
per correspondent asserts that there is project
on foot at Naples to exunguish the fires Of
Vcsuvius by digging canal from the bottom Of
the crater, which is several thousand feet below
the level Of the sea, to drain off the burning lava
into the sea, the into the crater, at an ex-
rcnse Of $4,000. An excellent project in either
event; for if the sea does not put out Vesuvius,
Vesuvius will warm up the sea, and then boiled
fish will be cheap.
