Topn Lots.--We understand that
considerable inquiry has been made by
some capitalists Of Baltimore, concern.
lug the sale Of Mr.. Frizell's lots. They
propose to enter largely into the scheme
aud to erect cottages Tor summer resi-.
dences. Wcrare not opposed TO this,
but think, as Mr. Frizell has laid out
his property aud Intends to open several
new streets SO us 10 allow our city to
spread, tina, il would be better il our
own citizens would take greater por-
ton Of the chances, instead of allowing
these spectators to secure the lots, and
hereafter dispose Of them at enormous
advances and that our citizens should
have the benefit Of the increased value.
Do not let this opportunity pass, or per.
haps you will regret it. A large NUN
Ter OF persons have subscribed and as
soon as the numbers are all taken the
lots will be drawn for. These lots sur !.
round the celebrated mineral spring, Of
which analysis was made by Prof. Al
ken, of Baltimore, aud highly recon.
mendod by him. The spring will mol
be included 10 the drawing, but those
who draw lots will have the privilege Of
using the water at the spring whilst in
possession Of the present. Owner.

Street Preaehiag.-Somc little excite
ment was created 10 cur town on the
afternoon Of Good Friday BY street
preacher, calling himself Andrew Jack
son Carney, who held forth 10 front of
the Market House and entertained a
curious audience with rambling and
desultory harrangue, interspersed with
liberal denunciaiions of the Mcthodists
and several cther denominations. - Hun
ocer Spectator.
When here, Carney undertook to
speak at night near the Railroad Depot.
But the freedom with which he used
his tongue in denunciation of other
denominations, caused some persons
near him 10 pelt him with mud. Whe:e-
ut Carney's ire kindlcd, aud to demon
strate that be was literally Of the church
mitifanf, drew revolver aud threatened
to shoot. But wisely concluding that
discretion is the better part OF valor, >
he beat retreat. The collections liz
ted AZ the close Of his harrangues
doubtless prompt them, more than any
religious impulse, for no religious per.
son would behave as he does.

yENT1oN- CALLED.-It will be seen by the ad=
dress of L. B. Taylor, ESQ.,, one of the Execu-
tive Committee for this Congressional District,
that the Conservatives Of this city and county
are requested to meet in Convention on Wed,
nesday night next at Liberty Hall, tor the
purpose Of recognizing the party, nominating
candidates for the House Of Delegates and ap-
pointing delegates to the District Senatorial
Convention. Mr.. Taylor, in earnest terms,
calls upon every man to do his duty, and,
It is hoped, the call will be responded to with
\ heartiness and unaminity that will show
that Alexandria has lost none OF her zeal
in the cause-so vital to the interests OF
Virginia.

The Petersburg Progress has some excellent
suggestions in relation to those counties in the
State where the Radicals have controlling ma
iorities, and where an erroneous impression
seems to have prevailed that all effort must, as
a matter of course, be fruitless, and that there
fore, there is no occasion for party organlza-
ton, and scarcely any for party distinctions. 1t
is just as incumbent upon our political friends
in those counties, to do their duty as earnestly
and faithfully, and to be as active and energetic
as if they were otherwise situated They should
keep up their party organization. They should
strive to reduce the vote against them-these
majorities, being nesrly in every instance, pro-
duced BY the colored vote alone. The cause,
for the success of which we are striving, is one
which deserves the ardent support Of every
true Conservative. If there is but one Con-
servative at any precinct, let that vote be given
The good effects will be seen in time.

contains an able article on Swinburnc's Poems,
now of some notcriety, and which have been
republished in this country. 1t is a Scathlng
condemnation Of the false taste, immortality,
and want Of true poetic feeling, which charac-
terize these poems. They were said, not long
since, coarsely, by a critic, to be like "molasses
mixed with tartar emetic, to any but depraved
literary appetites They will have their day
and then sink into oblivion But it is sorrow
ful to see talents wasted in ministering to evil
