OYSTERS. In former days Alexandria was
one Of best oyster markets in the whole
country The keepers of oyster houses-there
were no restaurants in those times In
Washington, came down here to obtain their
supplies-and gentlemen from the country
would spend night in town, frequently, to
have an oyster supper-of which roasted oys-
ters--the best way Of cooking the bi7alvcs-'
were the principal dish. We see nc reason
Why the ancient celebrity of our town, IN this
respect, should mot be revived, by proper ar
rangement and proper management. We
should like to see the oyster Gaming business
carried on here extensively. The railroads Of
fer every facility iordaily transportation to the
villages and towns in the adjacent counties -
This trade would be of great advantage. and
would give occupation to many hands during
the winter months It brings great deal of
money toaBaltimorc- not to Alexandra ?
We hope some enterprising men may take
hold OF these suggestions, and act accordingly.
