Correspondence Of The Stsr.

GHoRsKIowN, Feb. 4, 1859.
Ever since Baltimore became a commercial
city of any moment, Alexsndria and Georgetown
have been among her very best customers for
very large amount of the heaviest and mott costly
articles Of merchandise, such as sugars, cofes,
teas, bacon, &c. Indeed, we suppose we would
be safe In saying that for years past At least
one half TO twothirds Of all the groceries, to say
nothing Of dry goods and other articles, retailed
bv the merchants Of these two cities has been
purchased Of the wholesale dealers Of Baltimore
We may, therefore, assert that in some sense the
interest OF Alexandria and Georgetown IL the
interest Of Baltimore. II the trade Of our retail
erchants Is cut of or injured, In the same ratio
must the Baltimore merchants feel the effect.
And still we almost constantly End some Of the
leading men OF Baltimore waginQ the most I'M
necessary and unjustidable species Of warfare
against rs. Why this suicidal course Is pursued
by the Baltimoreans the most shrewd among us
are unable to determine, unless IL be q DISPOSE
ton to play the dog In the manger, or q species
OF petty jealousy towards the Chesapeake and
Ohio Canal. We would here remind them that
| there Is point beyond which forbearance ceases
to be virtue. Many Of those who have all their
lives purchased nowhere else than In Baltimore
are already beginning TO turn their attention to-
wards New York; and unless the opposition is
speedily terminated, both by the leading men OF
Baltimore and some Of her journals, In New York
they will be driven to make their purchases In
the future We have already been requested by
one OF our leading merchants, who deals largely
In Baltimore, to suggest the propriety Of holding
public meeting to take some steps in regard &c
the matter
Whatever else the Old Dominion may be def
cient in so far the raising of good L-ef is
cerned she has never been excelled, IL eQualled
Mr.. Briggs brought to our market Yesterday,
from Clark county, one which, in point Of supe-
riority of quality, eHceis anything we have s-Pn
for several years. IL weighs some ., 800 pounds
and was purchased by our young friends, MrssEs
jacob kengla & Brother, aud will he posed in
the Centre market OF your city, aud tue George
town market to- morrow morning.
The ladies Of Trinity Church had a stirring
| time at their Fair, last night, Notwithstanding
the gloomy appearance Of the weather They
were visited by large concourse Of persons
numbering many OF the Faculty aud the stu
dents OF the Georgetown College Thus far Il
has been one of the most popular entertainment,
| Of the kind, given In our city for some time.
We hear Of no change in tue markets, But
little doing. The weather has laid a sort OF en-
barge on al out door business. Small Quanti.
ties OF pork continue to come in in wagons, and

SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS


The Union, speaking Of the sold fashioned
test" adopted by Jefferson of inquiring whether
an applicant for Office was Ca friend to the
Constitution" asks whether the rule ought to
be relaxed. 1t attributes the present pros
perity of our country to the Constitution under
which We live, and regards fidelity to that
Constitution on the part Of the administration
and federal officers as the greatest safeguard
Of future stability and prosperity.
The same paper speaking Of our Army and
Navy in Europe, is confident that officers can
be found in the American Army and Navy who
have not their equals in the military establish
ments Of all the nations Of Europe in the art
and science Of war, but that in point of msg-
nitude and power our two arms of service as
compared with the armies and navies of Europe
are but as pigmies to giants
The same paper has a long article from the
Albany atlas aud Argws upon the manage
ment Of financial affairs in the Empire State,
and gives brief history of Mr.. Hatch's sue
cessful efforts in the Legislature of that State,
in 1851, in oyerthrowing the nine million scheme
Of canal lettings in the hands of jobbers and
plunderers, and the result of those efforts in an
amendment by the people of their Constitu-
ton, and the incorporation in it of this anomsl-
Gus clause in their organic law that ''all the
contracts for work or materials on any canal
shall be made with the person who shall offer
to do or provide the same at the lowest price,
with adequate security for their performance.
