"AyreSt Of a Hotel 1hiJ.-On Satur-

q robbery had been committed at his
house, and suspecting the thieves TO have
gone north. The case was given 10 MeSsrs.
Clarvoe and McDeyitt, and these officers
kept vigilant eye upon the arrivals by
the Orange and Alexandria and Potomac
aud Fredericksburg routes. Mr.. Gill,
agent of the latter company, was informed
of the matter, and yesterday morning,
when the boat arrived at Seventh. street
wharf, he sent word to Mr.. McDeyitt of a
suspicious individual who took the city
cars, and who was passing through toward
the Baltimore depot. Ere Mr.. McDevitt ar
rived to get on the cars, the suspected
party had jumped oil, evidently not liking
the look of matters. Mr.. Gill called the
attention of officer Skinner, OF the seventh
ward, to him, who took him under arrest
aud turned him over to the detectives. A
hearing was had by Justice Tucker yester.

The CANAL INsPECTIoy.-Thc party, con-
sisting of Colonel G. S. Darlington, prcsi-
dent OF the James River and kanawha
Canal Company, and Mcssrs. Franklin
Stcarns, Ii. g. Cabell, and J. D. Harvey,
directors, who started for Maden's Advcn-
ture Dam, in GOochland county, on Satur-
day morning on tour of inspection, re-
turned the same evening, after most
satisfactory trip. They stopped on their
way up the canal at the Wcstham Iron
Works, where they found everything in
successful operation. These works will
be very valuable to the city. They have
lately been sold at great sacrifice, 52j,-
600 onc-ffth Of what they cost before the
war. The party next visited the works of
the Dover Coal Mining Company.
This company has five hundred hands ut
work, aud sends to the city one hundred
and fifty tons of good coal per day.
The works OF the National Coal Mining
Company were visited. This company,
composed of energetic business men, some
of the North, are at work, developing some
very rich seams Of coal. They are work
ing five slopes and two shafts, in which
they find bituminous and soft and hard
coke. Operations were CollmChccu III
November, 1865. The company has pur-
chased several tracts of land at Bellona
and beyond. The tourists also visited, on
their way, a mine which is being worked
by General Burnside, formerly command
ing the Army of the Potomac, and General
II. IIeth, formerly of the Army of Northern
Virginia. These gentlemen have struck Il
very fine seam OF coal, which they expect
to yield largely.
The gentlemen on the trip found the
canal as a general thing, in good order,
and ample arrangements are being made
to make all necessary repairs.
