The announcement of the annual meeting
of the stockholders of the Orange and Alex
andria Railroad, at Charlottesville, to-day,
makes US realize very severely the difference
between Alexandria now and Alexandria
year ago. This time twelve months since,
our streets were thronged with our friends
from the country, and presented very live
ly, business like appearance. In our own
Office, a fall complement of printers, men
and boys, stood with OVERLOOKING cases before
them, putting in type, for the next days
Gazette, the reports and proceedings OF the
railroad meeting-the Hotels were all filed
the merchants were actively engaged in
selling their goods, the mechanics in dispos-
ing of their work or receiving orders. Now,
all is changed! But still, we must not be
altogether dispirited or depressed. We must
yet hope for better days, for peace, for re-
turning prosperity.

ter of whom responded, and returned thanks
for the gift.
The President announced that business
meeting of the Association would be held to-
night, at the Lyceum Hall, and desired a
full attendance, as business which had been
on hand for some time was to be disposed Of.
Two bouquets from the Union ladies were
then presented to the leader of the band: in
response, the baud performed beautiful
piece.
Lewis Mckenzie then addressed the meet
ing, complimenting the Band, and insisting
that such fine music would certainly put an
end to many of the secessionists in the town
who now looked SO sour that it was painful
to behold them. He said that one good
effect at least Of the present unfortunate war
would be to put an end to what he consider
ed the greatest nonsense and humbug of the
age, the term sacred soil" applied to Vir-
ginia. He had visited Massachusetts, Ken
lucky, Alabama, Louisiana, and other
States, and examined their soil, and saw no
reason why the soil of Virginia was more
sacred than in any Of the other States
This war would obliterate the cry Of sacred
sofia cry which had had its influence in
causing the State to secede. To the preach
ers and women, especially to the former. he
attached much blame for the dissolution of
the Union. He next alluded to the flag, and
said, he never expected that the time would
come when the Stars and Stripes would be
looked upon with scorn, as that flag was now
by many. He then reverted to the sacred
SOIL" and repeated that it was the veriest
humbug and nonsense. After again COM
plimenting the band, which be pronounced
the finest be had ever heard-he concluded
and upon the suggestion Of the President, a
motion to adjourn was put and carried, and
the meeting adjourned.

Russell, in one of his late letters, gives a
graphic picture of the scenes as Washington
is approached at this time. He says: The
approach to Washington by rail just now
presents a very picturesque, but. To patri-
Ut, a mournful sight All through Mary land
the bridges on the railways are guarded by
little camps. And as the noise OF the train
is heard, the men rush out of the tents to the
line awaiting their shower Of newspapers
which is let fall by the passengers, and eve
scramble. As the train draws nearer to the
capital Il ese camps increase in number and
in size, till the white canvas frosts every
knoll, and CLEANS through every woodland
and glade now coloring with the glorious
tint Of the autumnal foliage. Monster trains
are passed, and the soldiers inside rend the
air with yells and shrll cheers. The fields
are filled with dark lines of infantry at drill;
heavy trucks, laden with guns and munitions
Of war, block up the sldings, and look sulki-
ly out of their secluded shunting places. On
the undulating ground, from which all ira
ces of forest aud grove are fast vanishing,
are visible immense packs of horses COM
missariat camps, long lines of white tilted
wagons, cities of mules, and columns of dust
seam the sky, and mark the march or evolu-
tons of armed men. Strains of music are
heard as the unfinished dome of the Capitol
aud the spires of the city rise in view, and
long stretching lines of tents wind in and
OUT as ii encompassing the place in their
arms till they fade away in the distance. The
air pulsates with the flash of arms in the
sunlight, and now and then the booming of
guns"

Monday. the case Of the Petrol privateers
was called up, but postponed till next Mon
day. While the District Attorney was urg-
ing the trial, Judge Grier said he could not
consent to have the regular business of the
court interrupted. 1t seemed like a farce to
try them at this time, when the country
played civil war. The dictates of humanity
would counsel the government to treat cap
tves ON the sea the same as those taken on
the land, and he could not understand the
policy of hanging the first and holding the
latter as prisoners OF releasing them.
