A BREAK IN THE CANAL.-Information
has been received that the BERN side OF
Sideing Hill aqueduct on the Chesapeake
and Ohio Canal, forty-eight miles from Cum
berand, gave way Saturday night and all
the masonry on that side was washed out.
About one hundred and twenty-five feet OF
stone work is gone and the loss will be
heavy Repairs will probably occupy sew
era weeks and the opening of navigation
will be delayed for that time. No special
cause is known for the accident, but it is
supposed that the masonry, weakened by
age, could not stand the pressure Of water.
The aqueduct was built when the canal was
made.
