CANAL NEws,-Captain Maus, superiaten-
u<nt OF Georgetown level, reports that the canal
rs lcw in better condition tn an 10 has ever been
eetore. The new feeder put in on this level last
winter works admirably, giving a full supply of
wafer; therefore there are no complaints from
miiters and others who were derived OF water a
portion of last summer. Ii the water in the
river does fall lower than il did at its lowest
stage last summer {it being very near that stage
now, the supply can be kept up without incoE-
yenience to either the boat or mills. The largest
number of boats this sc ason we're loaded at Cum
berland on Tuesday last and will arrive here to-
day. The water viii be drawn from the George
town level At a. m. to- morrow and be of all
day, when large force will be put on to remove
large quantity Of rock that has been thrown
water main near the College pond. The company
will also take advantage of the water being off
to repair certain gates on this level which are
found 10 need repairs. Mr.. Davenport, the con-
tractor for laying the 36-inch water main, will
also take advantage OF the drawing OFF to IN axe
the connections of his pipes over the College
pond. He has already sunk his Golfer dams for
that purpose, and with permission of the fire
commissioners has secured the services of the
steamer Henry Addison, No. 5, to assist him in
pumping out the dams.
A NEW FOOT PAVEMENT has been laid on the
north side of Bridge street. bet ween Washington
and Greene streets, conforming to the new
grade.

morning at IS per thousand. About 100 shad sold
at $40 per hundred.
SALE OF GRAIN.-A sale of 400 bushels of
white corn was made last night at so cents.
Thirteen hundred bushels of No. spring wheat

The ELRCTIOT-The result of the contest
yesterday was the election of the entire conser-
vative ticket, with the exception of the MAYOR
and the 4th ward ticket W. n. Berkley the
radical candidate for mayor, was elected by a
majority OF eighty-seven. II Is due to the con-
servatiye party to say that in the election for
mayor there were dissentients from the nomi-
nation for that office, and while the great ma
jority of them voted for the nominee, there were
some who did not. The following are the names
of the successful candidates so far as known =
commemorative attorney, VIM. KiIgour; city
sergeant, James NJ. Stuart; commissioner of
revenue, j. w. Campbell. For the CITY coun-
cil-First ward-Alderman, l.. l.. Loving; coun-
cilmen, George X. Shinn, VIM. W. Rock, W. s.
Moore, Isaac Elchberg. Second ward-Alder-
man, y. 5. French; councilmen, T. Risheill JOS
Hopkins, y. A. Field. j. Green. Third ward

+. Henderson, Chas. Mankin, John s. Beach
X. Portner. Fourth Ward-Alderman, j. A
Il. Is. Pinn, (cOlored,) Paul r. Evans, Edward
Hughes.
The election in the county yesterday resulted
in the success Of the radical tickets in Jefferson
and Arlington townships, where no conserva-
tive candidates were run, and in the success of
the conservative ticket in Washington township
with Mr.. Febrey as supervisor.
