ALEXANDRIA, May 2, 1855.
Last night the Democracy assembled en-.
masss at the Lycsum Hall, Buckingham,
President Of the association, presiding. Mr.
Skinner, of Augusta, entertained the large
auditory for one hour and half with a bril-
liant and effective address, citing Clay against
Flournoy, and demanding of the Wings which
was the best authority. Col. Hunton, Of
Prince William, next spoke most eloquently,
and after some remarks from a gentleman of
the valley, G. W. Brent, esq of Alexandria,
made brilliant appeal to the Democr attic
party. The meeting closed with three cheers
for the Democratic standard bearers.
The American party also held a public
meeting, which was attended by large mum
bers. Mr.. Mitchell and F. s. Evans spoke at
length and wi h ability in behalf of the prin-
ciples of the Know othing organization.
Messrs Smith d Perkins, who commenced
work only last Saturday, turned out yester-
day another magnificent locomotive, the Fair
view, for the Pennsylvania and Ohio railroad

HonohrVWn, may q, lOoo'
Many of our people especially the Juveniles
seemed disposed yesterday to enter heartily
into the celebration of the advent of mother
of roses, May. At the Ladies Academy, at
the Convent of the Visitation, the festivities
throughout the day were of the most pleasing
character. The fremen's procession was quite
large, and all the external paraphernalia, ap-
paratus, Uniform, music, &c., was really beau
tiful
We are pleased to learn that the canal
packet, Congress, is being literally patronized
On the 9TH inst she will be drawn of the
route for few days, to convey 20 Cumberland
tho officers and directors Of the Canal Com
pauy, and States agents (of Maryland) on
their tour Of inspection. We learn from enc
OF the directors OF the company, that an invi-
tatiOn was extended to the Governor and
Comptroller Of Maryland to accompany them
but declined IN consequence of press Of
State business.
Forrest Hall was we'll filled last evening 10
hear the lecture Of the Indian chief, Maung-
WI daus, and see tie exhibition by him and
his company.
Business upon our canal looks rather dull
this morning. This is owing to the fact th at
most persons residing along the line, and
many engaged upon 1t, are engaged in their
farming operations.
We have been requested to say that the
Rev. Mr. Cummins, of your city, will preach
q sermon TO the young men, of our city, in St
John g Church, on Thursday evening next, at
o'clock.
From every direction We continue to receive
the most cheering accounts Of the growing
wheat crops. If nothing unforeseen should
befall it, the yield, from all We can gather,
promises TO be one Of the largest ever known
IN this section Of country. We also learn that
the young frat never locked more healthy
or promised moro abundant yield
No change in flour or grain market Fish
are quite plenty at our whsrves this morning

THE GREAT LAND SALE Our readers should
not forget that on the / lth inst the great land
sale Of G w. Boteler takes place. The prop
erty advertised for ii in the Star comprises q
collection Of Washington lots, such as was never
before offered at auction in this city. Loca-
tions, 1t will be perceived BY the catalogue
are to be found in all parts of the city, and
the property Is offered by bona fde holders,
with the determination T. sell at whatever
price 1t will bring. In no city in the Union is
property increasing in value upon a moro
solid basis than in this city, and no better it,.
vestment can be made anywhere in real es-
tate than here, during the present tight

prove luxury.
