In excavating the large cistern on Clinch

bottom found a very large bank Of exceedingly
fine sand, which adhered so loosely that pick

The sand was surrounded by dry, hard and
solid clay mixed with finty gravel and no sign
of water was to be seen, aa.. =
1t was found necessary to eNcavate deeper
than was intended in order to get solid bottom

BUTLER'S DUTCH GAP CANAL.-The
Richmond ERruirer, of recent date, says:
Dutch Gap Canal is now an object not
only of historical, but also of practical in
terest, to every traveller down the James
River. Until quite recently the work was
supposed to have been a failure. Butler
made the necessary excavation, but was
unable to turn the current of the river suf
ficiently to render the canal useful. The
surging flood of last October removed the
difficulty, and now steamers and ships of
the larger kind may pass safely through it,
Workmen are now engaged in widening
and Yariously improving the opening, SO
as to secure benefits permanently. 1t may
surprise many of our readers who have not
looked into the matter closely, to know
that the canal seems only forty or fifty
yards long, and wheRit is fully completed
vessels Will pass this {hort distance instead
of being compelledato make a curve of
seven miles, us formerly.

SALT WATER MosQUrroEs.-Old Captain
Jones, of Stonington, Connecticut, re-
lates the following remarkable incident
that occurred on the passage from New
York some years ago: He observed, one
summer afternoon, q heavy cloud arise
from the land, and to his great surprise,
approach the vessel. Suddenly it broke
near him, and millions of mosquitoes
covered the deck of the vessel, to the
depth Of several inches, while part of the
flock went through the mainsails, leaving
nothing but the bolt-ropes hanging idly
to the spars Corroborative evidence to
this astonishing tale was found in the
person of a "down East skipper" who
heard the story, and who, on comparing
dates with the narrator, declared that two
days afterward he was boarded by the
same flock, and they all wore canvas
breeches.
