NEW TRICK BY TRAvELERs.-On Saturday even
ing, an apparent stranger having something the ap-
pearance Of countryman, called at one OF our promi-
nent hotels, carpet bag in hand, and inquired for
lodging. room was granted for his use, and in the
morning the price for lodging promptly paid, AMI the
traveller vamosed A Wei. after by the cham
beImaid to the rocm exposed bed stripped Of its
coverings and lArge-sized paving-stone ip their
place. The propretors Of the hotel found themselves
minus two pairs Of sheets, couOerpane, two pairs
Of piowc ,ses, one comforter; for which they only
hold in return the small payment in cash before a.
luded TO, and the more weighty but less valuable
payer, which they would be happy TO have the owner
call for and take away This is case Of Absence OF
mind which certainly calls for the nterposton of the
police. Hotel keepers must be their guard for like
impostons. This, we believe, is entirely new
dodge. We are often called upon to expose tricks
upon travellers. but tits is putting the boot the
other leg. There car be no doubt 10 this person
being q trareler, from the sudden manner n which he
left and, as hotels generally construe matters nowl
deys, under the stringent, enforcement of the lcene
law by MAY or Wood. II is said that even the evil
dence of carpetbag is not required at home of the
hotels TO get entertainment at the bar There are
ceptions; among them, we are happy to say, is the
hotel where the above occurrence took place.

ALEXANDRIA, Aug. 13, 1856.
The Young Bachelors Association, with
their friends, spent yesterday at Arlington
most pleasantly, dancing, swinging, singing,
and strolling. The whole party enjoyed them
selves to the utmost. For awhile the rain
operated as q damper upon the fsstivity, but
soon the sun smiled out again and the tempo
rary discontinue was forgotten.
The police authorities and some of our PEG.
pie seem to be at loggerheads about the man
agement of town affairs, and the morning pa
pers TEEN with suggestions and replies. The
DIRECTORS think-in the papers-that there is
neglect, and the officials set out through the
same organ, that the neglecpis on the part of
those who do not inform the authorities of such
matters rs they desire TO see attended to.
The lncendiary attempts, on Saturday night
last, which were unsuccessful, have created
considerable excitement here. MeGOnnegal's
restaurant, on Cameron street; the carpenter
shop Of Mankins Fadely, on Fairfax street,
and dwelling on Cameron street, were all
fired; but by the vigilance of our night watch
every attempt was foiled. This shows the fine
working of our new district system.
The camp-meeting of the Methodist E
Ohurch, at Union camp-ground, commences
next Thursday. -
A large number of river craft came up yes.

lively engaged supplying their extensive four

wheels have been substituted by new ones on
larger scale, and many other portions Of the
Old machinery has been removed to make way
Tor new OF the most approved order. About
the hrst OF the ensuing week, they expect to
commence operations again.
Our election. which comes OF on Thursday,
for one member of the Board of Aldermen,
begins to attract considerable attention. From
the present state of feeling. we think that the
vote pOlled will be quite large It is sufR
ciently settled that G.. W. Beall will be the
anti, and Judson Mitchell the Know Nothing
candidates. f6ee Mr.. Mitchell's card contra
dictory of this statement.
From notice In the Georgetown Advocate
we discover that Mr.. Edward D. Tippett lee

A SIas.-The New York Courier and En-.
quirer says: We learn that one Of the most
PROMINENT shipbuilders of this city was en-
gagged, about two weeks ago, in looking about
for timber to use in building man-of-war for
the Russian Government. Since that time he
has suspended operations, and declines pur-
chasing timber that is offered to him. The
contract under which the frigate was to be
built required that she should be delivered at
Russian port. We are not informed whether
the design has been abandoned by direction Of
the Russian Government, or whether the con-
tractor, despairing of his ability to perform
the clause in the contract above mentioned,
has adopted this course to save himself from
the loss resulting from having thess ship lying
idle; but in either case, the fast that the work
has been suspended, and perhaps altogether
abandoned, Is significant.
