ALEXANpRlA.-T one who has been absent
from the city for any length OF time, the March
Of improvement is very perceptible: and it would
seem that the long cherished hopes Of our citi-
zens, that the good old town; would become
Il thriving business place, are about to be real
lied to great extent, at least. On every hand
new buildings have been erected and others are
going up, while old houses have been improv-
ed and modernized SO that their former occu-
pants would scarcely recognize them The nat
ura facilities possessed by Alexandria; the lines
OF Internal Improvements terminating here and
those projected, either to terminate Or pass
through the city, are attracting the attention Of
persons from within and without the State and
the population is steadily increasing. The coun-
try round about is rapidly filling up with u
thrifty and We'll to do class of people, who make
this their market u project has been put on
foot to connect, by street railway, the con-
tiguous village Of West End, which is improv-
ing and growing; it is in contemplation to con-
Vert the present Market House building into Il
line Court House, Public Hall, &c; i new Corn
Exchange building is to be erected; places Of
amusement are to be fitted up, and instead Of
the dull and lethargic aspect OF affairs directly
after the war, everything now has an animated
and business aspect. There are more people on
the streets; the stores and places of business
present live appearance, all indicating
growing prosperity. Dwelling houses for small
families comfortable and convenient, are in de-
mand, and better investment could hardly be
made than the erection, in good localities, of Il
class Of houses suited for persons Of moderate
means not to be built i'll blocks, but as in
other cities, separate, with courts or small
yards, where flowers can be cultivated for pleas
ure and adornment Capital and manufacture
es are wanted but they will probably follow in
the wake Of the general improvement as the
advantages are so obvious, that 1t Is not prob
able in this age Of progress they will be over
looked for much longer time. The prospect
at present is brighter for the future of Alexau-
dra than at any time within the past ten years.
and the improvements are Of Il more substan-
tial character and Indicative Of enterprise and
progress
