ALEXANDRIA "REMINISCENCES In looking
over some back numbers CT he Gazette, I find
the following editorial remarks I'VE are al.
ways pleased to receive and publish reninis-
cences of old Alexandria, il its better and
brighter days" As I must be ore ofthe Oldest
individuals who have any recollection of Ask
andria in those days, I have concluded to COM
muncate, for publicatio in tie Gazette, few
"reminiscences Of an octogenarian, who first saw
the light not far from that good old town, and
who was partly raised in it-and therefore as
ISOLATED with it are my earliest aud tenderest
recollections
Alexandria has been as much celebrated for
it's eminent physicians as Tor its beautiful wo-
men-I we'll remember the great medical men
of the olden times. There was the venerable
Craik, the favorlte phsician of Washington,
with his tall stately figure, and dignifed man
ners dressed IN the costume and style Of the
old Scotch doctors. There was the gifted
Dick in the splendor Of his talents, and in his
prime, remarkably handsome, an elegant fig
ure, and in dress and manners perfect gran
dee. Both these distinguished men were Ed
nburg graduates.
D Or. Dick was long thought to be proud and
I anghsy by the cowmonalty, but for a good
amanys.Eears before his death no gentleman
o0asbe rlainer and moro humble having
that most worthy society of christians,
the Quakers There was also the elegant and
accomplished Black, who came to Alexandria
very early in the present century, and although
quite a young Philadelphia graduate, rose rap
idly ty the force Of his skill and popular man
ncrs, to distinctionsand professional celebrity,
ard indeed such was the briiliancy Of his career
that at one time he seemed to bid fair to DEFY
all riyalry-But alas yielding as he did to the
temptations Of intemperence and gallantry, he
sacrificed all his fair and luminous prospects
and brought himself TO- Asn ,untimely end III
I will Fur the pressnrodB advert to one more
of the old;tine Alas3andrIa physiciahs,f that is,
a doetSl an eman, who
settled in that! town about the year 1901, who
was perhaps more remarkable for his polished
and elegant person and manners, than for his
skill in medicine, and twas. a notorious fact,
that he and, his wife, whoswas an English lady,
were as handsome couple as ever prominaded
the streets-of Alexandria, indeed, as to the lady

FORGERY AND EMBEzzLEMENT

There was arrested Rochester, on Wednesday
last by Detective Timothy Go,den from thus cIty a
man VINO gave his name as John q. Beck, but whose
real name is stated to be E. X. Howe. ne has il is
believed, passed under halt dozen aliases This in
dlvidual is charged with having been concerned in
which mercantile men in Wall street have ueen
swnded out of $500 000
In this transaction several persons are imp icated
and it supposed by those who know the details of
the case thet Howe was used as agent by others
Tor the accomplishment OF their plans, and that in
ord'r to screen him IRON arrest they have been
moving him from place TO place IN the country. The
One of the parties charged with the forgeries was
found in a lunatIc asylum in France, and brought
back TO New York. He spent 500 900 OF the OOO
which he took to Euro pc with him.
The arrest of Howe in Rochester appears to have
beeu effected IN this manner:-Police Officer Nc Lean
was authorized by Chef Sherman to render assist.
ance to Golden IN looking out for the person he
living in the Twelfth Ward with his family Mclean,
who was dressed IN uniform, went to the rear of
Howe's hOuse while Detective Rogers entered it,
found the owner at home, and arrested him. While
being taken to the police office Howe met Golden,
who called him by his name.
This Disconnected the prisoner very much. Golden
Informed HIM that he an officer in New York
charge OF having been concerned with others in the
torgerie' above alluded to. Howe was brought to
this CITY by Golden on the 80 train half an hour
after the arrest had been effected. The prisoner was
known in Rochester under the name of Beck. de
was regarded there as man OF inoffensive, peace
able habits. lie seemed always to be well Off and his
family lived comfortably He stared that he had
been engaged as a pi OF in the harbor OF New YORK
from which he had only very recently returned to
Rochester
