NAVY YARD AFFAIRS.

The steamer Harvest Noon, Vol Lieut., J. ID.
Warren, which had her bow steve in and
sprung aleak in the Chesapeake while on the
way up from Fortress Monroe, has been re-
pairing on the ways, was launched this morn
ing successfully. The flag Of Admiral Dahl
gren has been hoisted on the Harvest Moon,
and it is expected that he will lea We in her to.
morrow for Fortress Monroe, to make one more
effort to recover the body OF his son.
The Com. Read, Acting Master Smith, left
the yard yesterday for her station in the river.
The Resolute arrived up this morning with
dispatches.
Acting Ensign J. J. Brice has been detached
from the Wyandank, under going repairs, and
ordered to the command Of the Primrose
Yesterday afternoon the President, accom-
panied by Lieut.. Gen. Grant, Maj. Gen. Hal
leck, and Secretary OF War Stanton, paid a
short visit to the yard.
On Saturday the delegation OF Indians from
tie Northwest now here, paid visit to the
yard and after they had been introduced to
terests about the yard were visited.
The new coal depot which Is being built in
the stream, is rapidly approaching completion
and in about four weeks it will be finished
This depot or wharf il built on piles. and is 800
feet long by so feet wide, calculated for between
three and four thousand tons of coal. The
flooring has about nine inches spring of vault,
and is thereby much strengthened. When this
is completed the unsightly mountains OF coal
now between the Offices aud wharf will be re.
moved, and the appearance Of the yard will
be much improved thereby.
The wOrkmen in the various departments
are anxiously awaiting the result Of their ap-
piicatien for an increase OF wages, and mean
while many are leaving the yard, some sixty
or more having taken their discharse during
the past month and enlist ted in the army; the
large bounties paid by some Of the States being
an incentive which they are unable to resist
The report OF the commission on the wages, il
is stated, is favorable to the claims OF the met
