COMMUNICATED
Railroad Meeting in Leesburg."

It's pity that this meeting was not held
in the ''dog days, as the GOODNESS Of its
proceedings would have been refreshing at
that season. Coming so late as it does, and
after hard frost, its proceedings are calculat-
ed TO give Alerandruns cold shudder .
The part borne by our friends Of George
town, was particularly "cool, coming so close
upon the heel of their late proceedings to de-
prive Alexandria of her Aqueduct, and OF all
participation in the trade of the Chesapeake
and Ohio Canal works which have cost Alex
andria, and the State of Virginia, millions of
money.
Mr.. Cox: Of Georgetown, it is true, was ex-
cecdingly generous. He magnanimou>y de-
cared that he did not want Alexandria dis
eliminated against, in the rates Of freight OF
road which has already cost the State and
people of Virginia, nearly S2,OOO,0O0, and
Georgetown not one dollar.
Mr. Merrick, of Washington, was not quite
so generous He contended that whilst the
District cities of Washington and Georgetown
should have u controlling voice in the man
aeement of the latter branches, - lone of which
it seems is to be extended to ''Aldie or beyond
it," probably to tap the Manassas Railroad,
and draw off its trade and travel, these branch
cs SHOULD be strictly guarded against the
liabilities of the main stem. - In other words,
they are to reap the fruits of all the cxpendl-
lures upon this main stem, but to bear none
OF the burdens
It is not surprising that after this speech,
Mr. Tenney, of Washington, should have made
some remarks in Humorous vein, and caused
much merrimcnt, nor that the meeting should
have stricken out the 2nd resolution offered by
Mr.. Tucker which guarded the interests OF
Alexandria, by providing that the proposed
branch to Georgetown, should dverge from
the main stem at point equi distant from Al
exandria and Georgetown.
The whole proceedings were, 1t seems sppro-
priately wound up by some remarks from Judge
Underwood, about the probability OF Gov
Sprague and Judge Chase and others (names
not givcn-possibIy Hunnicut) investing their
money in propertv" -where? in Alexandria ?
On no in the District Of Crtumbtu. Very
likely the shrewd "Northern Capitalists, will
invest their money there, if we are TO be fooled
out of the advantage of Our expenditures and
position but certainly they mot even Hunn-
CUT will invest any here
We have called attention TO the proceedings
of this meeting, because the whole scheme is
calculated to deprive Alexandria of the benefit
of her large expenditures, and of her POSITION
as a Tiruiuiu city--to sell our birth right Tor
miserable mess of potage. We hope that
Mr.. Mckenzie will abandon it, alter the pro
cecdngs Of this meeting. "A NATIVE.

For the first time, since his exploits" in
the Valley of Virginia during the war, the
once famous Gen. Milroy is brought to public
notice. At the request Of the Radicals of
Winchester he actually appeared in that town
on the day before the election and made a
speech-or rather attempted to make one It
required an amount Of cheek" for such man
to speak in such place, that We did not think
was possessed by any other human being. He
was cheered by his friends, but hooted and
Missed by his opponents One Of the Radicals
threatened to call on the military. The most
remarkable calls were made from the crowd, to
the speaker, for curious information as,
"How about John Arnold's COW where
Ewell?' Pillow about Mrs LogaD's furni-
ture?'-lSc &c But Gen. Milroy went on,
and blundered through what he had 10 say
and then departed. 1t would have been better
to have let him alone, and not gone to hear
him.
q sMUHLBAcK's NovELs.-We have from the
book and periodical store of Mr. George E.
French, No. e5, King street, Napoleon and

COMMUNICATED.


Alexandria has, think, been, very properly
and prudently, silent on the matter Of the pro-
posed Branch Railroad to Washington and
Georgetown, because she is powerless, and her
opposition would be of no avail, as the town is
now situated: nay it would only tend to excite
the two cities on the other side of the Poto-
mac, to renewed efforts to draw to themselves
trade, which would otherwise come here But
when the National lntelligenccr talks Of "short
sighted people in Alexandria who may sug-
gcst that this branch may be to the prejudice
Of Alexandria, since that its market may be
shorn Of that overplus of domestic supply which
cOnstitut cs it a resort, to some extent, OF Wash
lngtonianS to purchase in large way for their
markets and that the return trade in groce-
ries, NC, by Georgetown merchants may also
be alleged as injuries, to some eXtcnt, to Alex
andria," the thing falls from the sublime
to the ridiculous" If "short sighted people"
say and think this, what will long and far
sighted people think? There have been
changes enough rung upon the unity Of inter
csts" of Washington, Georgetown and Alex
andria, to nanseate every citizen Of Alexandria.
There is no such-and in the nature OF things
cannot be any SUCH unity" as Is proved by
every day IS experience, and by common sense,
What unity" is there where Georgetown is
endeavo1ing to deprive Alexandria of the coal
trade; and when Washington traders are seek
ing to turn the river trade to that city, to the
exclusion Of Alexandria and 10 many other
cases? In cities as with individuals in trade,
each seeks for itself the greatest amount Of
trade and business. ALEXANDRIA TRADE.
