sAmRAR1vER IMPROVEMENT.
eome Interesting Facts About the
beginning of the work.

The history of this very interesting
work extends far back into time and but
few readers OF the Dispatch are aware
that the subject has been under discus
sion since 1879. In that year the Hall,
as the City Council was then called,
passed resolutions to the effect that re-
spectful application be addressed to the
President OF the United States requesting
that engineers be sent to examine and
survey the river from Newport Neuce
Point to Richmond and prepare estimates
of the cost of the proposed improvements.
The Hall also resolved that the Congress
OF the United States be petitioned to
make an appropriation for this purpose.
Eighteen names, among them the anees-
tors OF many of our present most noted
citizens, are given in the records as the
oues to whom was intrusted the practical
carrying out of this programme. Nothing
seems to have come of this effort.
In 1886 the Council passed some more
resolutions petitioning Congress to make
an appropriation. 1t now appears that
I" Mr.. Stansbury, an engineer III the
service of the United States, was APP
pointed to make surveys and estimates
of the cost of the improvement. proba-
bly, as the results OF this petitioning /;
and Mr.. Stanbury's maps and reports are
among the first official records now ex-
isting concerning the river. His maps
are on file in the Office of the present
engineers OF the James-River Improve
ment, and they form q most valuable
standard of comparison.
From his maps there appears to have
been in those days bars at Goose-Hill
flats, Swan Point, Harr;sop's bar, and Of
course at Warwick bar, Randolph flats,
and Richmond bar. Notwithstanding
the present croakers to the contrary, the
river in those days was very much worse
than it is now. For instance. there was
only about from five to six feet of water
at low tide over Richmond bar, which,
were it the case now, would seriously III
terfere with the daily running of the
msil-steamer Ariel, or the gondola of the
Warwick-Park Company, and would ut
terly prevent the Clyde-Line steamers
or the steamers Of the Old Dominion
Steamship Company. as they are now
built, from coming up to Richmond ut
