THE CANAL.-No definite information has
been received in relation to the injury at dam
No 5. A boatmau received a note from Will
Transport yesterday, informing him that the
aqueduct over Conococheage Creek, a. Will
liams port, had fallen. This work " as injured
by the rebels In their raid to Washington, ana
had been repaired. 1t Is possible that soma
portion of the repaired work has given away.
This morning there was an attempt made 70
draw the water Oft from the lower section OF
the canal, but at noon the gates were closed
again. This was probably to allow boats IN
Government service ts pass mp tbe canal. Sew
eral are now fitting out and loading for depar.
ture from this terminus.
THR New MARKET.-Workmen are busily
engaged in completing the new market build
ing. The front, which was so much damaged.
has been very thoroughly repaired. The vim
dows are all glazed, and the carpenters and
plasterers are actively engaged In finishing ths
Interior.
FLOUR AND GRAIN MARKBr.-Ths prices
continue unchanged; the demand active for
flour to supply the local trade. No receipts or
sales OF eI am were reported this morning.
THE FISH WHARF.-The renting OF the Cor
porstion fish wharf was consummated this
morning, Hillary Hutchins being the highest
