town correspondent of the Washington Star
upon the canal continues to
present about the usual amount of activ-
itv. During the week ending this morning,
lU4 boats have arrived; &c Of them from Cum
berland, bringing about 800 tons Of coal;
III from other points with flour and grain;
5 with limestone. and the remainder from
various points with wood, bark, &c. The
receipts for tolls at the Georgetown col
lector's Office for the same period, amounts to
S4,35l AZ, as follows: Ascending trade S4o2,
and descending 81, SS9.45. The whole num-
Der of boats that arrived during the month
of August was Al; the number OF tons OF
coal brought down 44,643; and tile receipts
for tolls at the before mentioned Office for the
same period, SlS,jI0.Gl, rs follows: Ascend
ing trade 81 ,SGl,9S, and descending Sl6,-
1CS, Go. The whole amount of receipts for
tolls at all points for the month, will reach ut
least S25 900. The whole line continues i'll

connected with its operations is moving on
very smoothly.
~
half from town, somewhat unusual spec
tacle presents itself, causing remark from
nearly all who pass. We alludc to the cross
ing of the Alexandria, Loudoun and llamp-
shire Railroad, at the Washington Turnpike.
1t not unlrequently happens that whilst the
train is crossing the bridge, the Washington
cars are passing beneath, and canal boats
are constantly in view at the same time,
while the turnpike is thronged with vehicles
of various kinds. There are, also, two lines
Of telegraph, running parallel with the turn
pike-the whole presenting scene rarely
witnessed, and truly pleasing.
The WATER PIrEs on Washington street
have been extended from Duke to Wolfe
streets.
TIE WEArHER.-We had last week dc
lishtGul fall weather-but more rain is
wanted, especially for the mill streams.
