after all thai has been said and done in the

MILITARY VISITERS.

The DAUrHIN GUARDS, Of Harrisburg, Pa,
arrived in this city at II o'clock on Wednes
day last. They were received at The railroad
depot by the National Blues, Captain Tucker,
and Mechanical Ridemen, Capt. McCleland,
and escorted through the principal streets OF
our city. In passing the residence Of the
Mayor Colonel SEAroN) The military compl.
menled him with a salute, and then proceeded
to the Presidents square, and passed ia review
Of his excelency. The Guards were then con-
Quoted TO their quarters at Fuler's Hotel, and
after divesting themselves Of their knrpsacks,
&c , the visiters and escort proceeded TO Alex
andria. They were received by the Mount
Vernon Guards, Capt. Snyder, and conducted
to The armory of the latter corps, where they
partook Of sumptuous dinner prepared for
the occasion.
About o'clock the military embarked on
board the 10 Johnson steamer, chartered for
the occasion by the National Blues and Me
chancal Rif"men,) and proceeded down the
river, passing in view ofFort Washington and
Mount Vernon; III passing the latter place
the military were drawn up in line, with heads
uncovered, and a solemn dirge was played by
the band. The party returned to the city
about 8 o'clock in the evening, and the Guards
were escorted to their quarters, highly pleased,
as far as we could learn, with the proceedings
Of the day.
On Thursday morning the Guards, escorted
by the National Blues, visited the Capitol,
Navy Yard, &c On yesterday morning they
inspected the Patent Office, and visited the
President at his mansion. They were received
BY his excelency in his usual frank and cour-
teous manner. In the evening they departed
for Baltimore in the o'clock train. We are
pleased to learn that large portion Of the
Guards are pledged men, and that the Captain

MEssRs. Eo1ToRs: Having been invited by
The United Brothers Of Temperance TO accom-
pany them to Alexandria, last Sabbath, and Ia
be present at their Temperance meeting, ac.
cordingly took advantage of the invitation, and
stepped on board of the j. Johnson, with a
procession of the Order, numerating some
where about eighty members. The breezes
inhaled from the waters of the beautiful Poto-
mac. and the delightful temperance songs sang
Turing the passage, rendered the time extreme
ly pleasant.
On our arrival we were met by deputa-
ion of Cold a,er men Of the nnrien, city, and
escorted TO the Market square. During our
progress through the streets, the Brothers were
greeted by the smiles Of the farer portion of
creation, and The approving and welcome nods
+ fathers; but still, how much more crafty
ing it was to see the balcony around the Mar,
ket square crowded with the beauty and fash
ion of Alexandria, and then, too, to see the
space below filled with eager expec,an,s, il
appeared TO be stimulus 10 the strangers from
ashington, and you might infer from their
pleasing countenances that their hopes and
expectations would no, be disappointed.
The meeting having been called to order,
Vr. G "rge Sa~ge, the great apostle of tenI-
perance, was introduced TO the vast assem-
b'age. His remarks were principally confined
to explanations Of The Constitution, and objects
of the Order of the United Brothers of Tenn
perance.
Mr.. Wilson, a resident, believe, of George
town, next took the rostrum, and for the space
Of half an hour enchanted the multitude with
an address replete with argument eloquence
sublime, and bursts of passionate pictorial IL
Iustrations, al once convincing all within hear
ing Of the dangers attendant on The use of in
toxicating drinks.
lhe Rev MIR. Arard was next presented to
the eager listeners; and he, in an easy and
chrs,iau-like style, pointed out the happiness
resulting from abstaning from all that would
intoxicale. His address was listened 10 with
marked attention, and appeared TO have grea,
effect.
And last came on the stand ''e renowned
lFhippie. " no that has ever heard of lem.
perance doings, have not heard of the name
of Wh'pph3 | need but say, he well sustain.
ed his established repu alton.
After the conclusion of his address, the
meeting adjourned; and understand about
twenty signers were obtained on ard the
boat, which, being added TO those who signed
in ;hr city, would make "inay tdi-a glorious
days work for the Brothers of temperance.

Rail Road.-We are happy to learn that our citi-
zens are making a strong and determined move for
arailroad from Worcester through this place, Pc
tersbam, and Athol, Greenfield Brattleboro, or
the latter place, by way of the former as future
surveys may determine TO be the most judcious.
A petition, headed by the Hon. David Henshaw,
and signed by numerous Of our most wealthy and
enterprising citizens along the line of the proposed
route has been presented TO the Legislature for its
action upon the subject. When we consider the
immense importance of Railroad communication
between this section Of our county and Worcester
and Boston, in connection with the certainty that
such communication is demanded by the great ag-
ricultural and manufacturing interest of Northern
Worcester, and that its construction would be JUS
titled by the business of the region to be benefited
by it, we can not doubt of the ultimate success Of
the enterprise Barre Patriot.

A New MEETING HousE--The Methodist Soci-
ETY. Of this place are about erecting new Meeting
House on Elliot street, not far from Main street.
The funds, understand, are to be principally
raised by a sale of pews The society itself is not
very rich in this worlds goods, but we trust the
iberaty of citizens, and others in the vicinity,
will ensure them ample funds for building. We
must express our regret that they have no: chosen
more eligible site for their new house. Elliot
street is too narrow for the location of a Meeting
House, but this is matter about which they to
Judge, and their judgment may be far better than
our own. We cordially wish them success.
