"REMINISCENCES. Among the ablest OF tt
occasional writings of the late Philip R. Fen
dali, were a series of papers, published in the
Gazette years ago, in favor of the Retrocession
Of Alexandria to Virginia, of which he was al
ways warm advocate. In these papers the
expediency, policy, and constitutionality OF the
retrocession, which was finally effected, we're
deliberately argued. Mr.. E. wrote also eriti-
cal review of Fourth CT July Grafton deiv-
cred by Mr.. John Quincy Adams, when he
was Secretary of State, lin several numbers
which was much admired The numbers were
signed we think, Servius Sulpitius. We re-
member, in the cold times, : to have seen let
ters from distinguished literary and political
men, in different portions Of the country, re
questing copies of the Gazette containing these
papers, to be sent to them The very able dis
cussion on the rules Of order in the Senate,
at the time when Mr.. Calhoun, the presiding
officer, was much cepsured for not checking the
irregularities in debate of Mr.. John Randolph,
was conducted in the National Intelligcncer by
Mr.. Fendall on the one side, and it was said,
by Mr.. Calhoun himself, or gentleman under
his immediate dictation, on the other. This
discussion was very able one.

HARD TINES IN WASHINGTON ough
in the higher circles of society in Washington
the amount of gayety and dissipation is unlim-
tied, and money is profusely abundant, among
the working classes there is great complaint of
hard times and scarcity Of work. Those who
are out of employment find it difficult, and in
many cases impossible to obtain work at any
price. This is to large extent the case also,
with clerks, numbers Of which class would glad
ly avail themselves Of situations which would
pay their board alone. We frequently hear Of
young men who are making arrangements to
come to town to get situations. 1t is hoped
that they will be content with the farm at
home. They certainly will be if they arc wise.
It is doubtful if one in four Of the men under
thirty years Of age, residing here, have made
both ends meet during the past year. What
is true Of Washington is true to a much greater
extent in this city. Hard times arc prevalent
here without much admixture Of anything bet
ter among any class. Every indication points
to the country as the true field of enterprise,
almost the only one where energy brings Ger
tain reward.

THE MARKET. The market has, for some
time past, except on Saturdays, shown "a beg
carly account of empty benches" with moth
ing to sell, and scarcely any body to buy. If it
were not for the butchers stalls, the market
house would be very quiet, not to say a de-
serted place. The hucksters in Washington
are SAID to come down here and buy up the
country products, before they are carried to the
market IF this is 50, they ought to be flank
ed, and overcome Butw are consoled with
the hope, that as the spring will soon be here,
We shall see a change. Fish from the Poto-
mac landings will shortly be brought up, the
roads will be better, vegetables will be more
abundant, and the country people will be ena,
bled to bring their truck to town.

erected, not for the purpose OF forming the con-
Meeting link between the chesapeake ana ONO
and tba Alexandria Canals, but in turtherance
~. come occultgraiIread scheme upon the sue
.oo,ssfnl termination Of which the Aqueduct and
9th It the Alexandria coal trade can go to the
doos.sor any where else, so far as the lessees
of4ha canal are concerned. To confirm or dis
mol this impression, one of the reporters OF the
Gezette was sent to Georgetown yesterday, and
the result Of his observations there is as toll
lows The new Canal Aqueduct is an accom-
nlished tangible fact which presents itself In no
Questionable, but in beautiful and symmetrical
shape, spanning the Potomac from the foot OF
Bridge street, in Georgetown, to the opposite
Virginia shore, enc thousand and ninety-slx
feet long, 9and thirty two feet above high water
m,rk. The bridge is constructed upon the
Howe truss plan, is twenty-four feet high, and
tventy-four feet wide, and consists OF nine
spans, each one hundred feet clear. The trunk
ofthe Aqueduct is seventeen feet wide, with
iow path Of five feet. The contractors for the
work were A. B. Burton & Co., Of Phladel
phia, and the bridge was erected under the SUI
narvision of Mr.. j. Fl. Cofrode. A large num-
Der of stone masons, carpenters and caulkers,
are now busily engaged in preparing the Aque-
duct for the reception Of water, and by the first
day Of March the whole structure will have
been completed; and if the water in the Chesa-
peake and Ohiy Canal has not been drawn off
previous to that time, its gate will then be opened
and its strength tested. The wagon way will
be laid directly over the Aqueduct, and will be
on level with the top Of Bridge street. Space
sufficient for the construction of railroad
bridge has been left on the western or upper
side of the massive stone piers Whatever
may be the Interior designs of the lessees of the
Alexandria Canal, respecting the new Aque-
duct, is of course known only to themselves,
but the assertion that they have at great ex-
pense erected an entirely new and apparently
strong and substantial bridge and water way
across the Potomac admits of no dispute and
if Alexandria should once more become the
shipping port for the treasures Of the Cumber-
land coal fields, such desirable consummation
with be due in no small degree to the energy,
perseverance and pecuuiary means of these
lessees. ..~-a;.

WAsHIN GT0N AND ALEXANDRIA RAILROAD.
In the Washington City Common Council, on
Monday night last, Mr.. 0. S. Baker presented
the following
Whereas brutal outrage was recently COM
mitted by the employees employed by the pre-.
sent disloyal and unreconstructed managers OF
the Washington and Alex andria Railroad Com
pany, on the person Of an accomplished and
most excellent lady of our city, by beating,
tearing, and dragging her out of the cars of
that road while on her way from Alexandria to
Washington; therefore.
y Resolved By the Board of Common Council,
That the brutal act hereia complained of, as
we'll as the managers Of the road, for not con-
demning the same, as the cowardIy employees
who committed the act deserves the explicit
condemnation of all respectable citizens in our
midst
Resolved further, That we, as members OF
one branch of our municipal government, Will
withhold any assistance toward building a rail
road in the State until sufficient guaranty can
be given that all citizens, without regard to
class or condition, shall have the right to tray
Of theron without molestation or fear of inter-
ference
He said that doubtless members had heard
OF this most brutal outrage committed by the
employees, in question. He was we'll a.
quainted with that lady, and had recently
visited her, when he found her in a most
eDaciated condition, her head bruised, eyes
black and swollen, arms and wrists nangled by
the treatment she had received from the hands
Of two brutal men who dragged her from the
cars and beat her for eleven minutes. CID The
common feelings of humanity shouldinduce the
Council to condemn this act.
MI. Croker said that he had seen letter Of
the secretary Of the road, from which it appears
that the officers and proprietors of the road are
not responsible for the outrage, for it was now
in the hands Of receivers appointed by the
courts, one appointed by Judge Thomas, who
is somewhat notorious. In his opinion the
Board should put its seal of condemnation on
the act. He thought the civil rights bill had
secured personal rights throughout the. land,
but this outrage was committed in sight OF the
capitol. "
The resolution was postponed.
We give this as specimen! The road is
NORM the hands of Receiver appointed by
Judge Thomas-the Receiver resides in Wash
ingtoD, and is MIR. J. H. Lathrop, who, if pol
itics and seccs are to be brought in, it is proper
to add, has been and is q Union, Loyal Radical
man-but be had nothing to do with, and knew
nothing of, the affair, which is thus misrepre
sented and exaggerated.

RIVER NEws-A few more days Of such
weather as we have been favored with to-day
and the Potomac will throw off the covering it
has worn so long. An open track already ex.

row boat ferry line. 1t is thought that the
AQUA Creek line will be reopened tomorrow.

Potomac fisheries. We learn that about the
same number Of them will be worked the com
Ing season, as was done last year possibly a
few more. The proprietors are hiring hands,
and getting their seines and boats in order In
the mean time, the winter fisheries, at several
ct the lower landings, are carried on (not, how
ever, on large scale) and fine perch, &C., are
caught even this early. AS soon as the navi-
CATION Of the river resumed, we shall begin
to receive fine fresh fish.
