TmE CHESAPEAKE AND ONO CANAL
The President of the canal board, Mr..
Maulsby, has secured, by application TO
the War Department, the valuable SER
vices of Capt. NJ. G. Meigs, who will
probably proceed forthwith to dam No
5, to advise with Mr. Patterson, the
regular canal engineer, as to the best
means of dealing with the difficulties
presented at that spot: The National
Intelligenccr says:
eve think this is a iudicious move
ment ON the part of the president of the
board, and augur it will result prosper
ously. We also hear that the party
from Baltimore, on whose plan and I'M
der whose advice the president and board
have been acting at dam No. 5, has left
the work altogether, and will have no
more connection with it. In the present
swollen state of the Potomac river we
apprehcnd little can be practically done,
yet measures may be taken for action at
the first available moment In respect
to pecuniary means. we learn that salts
factory arrangements to procure it have
been made"
The Alexandria Gazette issued an ex-
ira on Monday morning last containing a
letter dated Williamsport, June 10Th,
saying that the work on dam No. 5 com
mcnced to-day, and the canal will be
open for the passage of boats in three
weeks.
