STRENGTHENING the Lower Jane,

The Board of Public Interests met at
the City Hall last evening to consider
this subject. Messrs. l.. d. CrenShaw,
chairman of the James River Improve
ment Committee; C.. p. E. Burgwyn,
engineer in charge ofthe river improve
ments: and Colonel Frank 6. RuiIin
were present by invitation.
BY request, Colonel Ruflin explained
the project, which is to petition the
Legislature to appropriate a certain
number of the conyicts in the peniten-
tiary to be uled in making cut-ofS in
some Of the bends Of the river, by
which it is stated that the distance be-
tween this city and NewpOrt's News
will be shortened about twenty miles.
Mr.. Burgwyn exhibited maps, show
ing the location Of the proposed change.
Before explaining them, however, he
remarked that, in regard to the proprie-
ty Of employing convict, in work Of
this character, North Carolina and
Georgia owe their present material
prosperity TO their use on w0r hs oil IN
ternal Improvements.
When a cutoff has become a water
course, then the Government can take
hold Of it.
The proposition is that if the Legis-
lature shall pass an act giving this
labor, then the city shall agree TO
pay the land-damages, which, it was
stated, would be comparatively light in
comparison with the good to be at
tanned.
After full discussion Of the subject
the following resolution was adopted
Resolred, That it be recommended
to the Council Of the city Of Richmond
to make arrangements to pay the dam
age that may result from cutting
through the tract Of land on James
river known as @oxendale, so as to give
straight approach into Dutch Gap in
case the Legislature provides the neces-
sary labor to make said cut.

BADLY EANGLED.
A Youth MunIated br Explosion OF fiask
OF Powder.

About | o'clock yesterday afternoon
A youth named Theodore Spott' son OF
Mr.. j. @. E. Spott, jeweller, residing at
9ls Broad street, was so badly wounded
by the explosion of flask of powder
that his right hand and wrist and the
left thumb and part OF the lore
finger had to be amputated. The un-
fortunate boy was in a neighbor's lot
PLAYING with a companion. They had a
small cannon and had either been firing
it or were preparing to fire it, when by
some unascertained means fire was COM
municated to flask which Spott held
in his hands, and an explosion followed,
with most terrible results for him and
some slight injuries for his companions.
Dr.. Holmes, Upshur, and Wexford
were at once called in. The extent of
the bows injuries made amputation in
dispensable, and his condition is still very
serious. as he suffered severe shock
and his system seems greatly pros
trated.
