ALEXANDRIA, VA.
Tuesday, January IL, 1871.

It seems that thousands of colored people
have settled in Washington, where they arc
not only without employment but actually fire.
quently destitute Of the neccessaries OF lite.
They depend upon catching job once or
twice a week and upon begging for a living
for themselves and their families. A writer In
the National Standard gives pitiable account
of the squalid poverty prevailing among many
of the blacks of Washington. Although Con
gress appropriates some twenty-five or thirty
thousand dollars year to the support OF the
DOOR of that city, and other charitable societies
supplement this bounty by appropriations 1or
the same object, the writer in question says
that it would require million Of dollars annu-
ally to meet the wants of the INDECENT colorcd
people of Washington!

The Washington Patriot says: The amiable
enthusiasts who, in the interests of science, are
wintering it out up there on the top of Mount
Washington. are laying in stock of rheuma-
tism, if not worse, dreadful to contemplate.
Take the case of Mr.. Smith, (who is one of the
party,) for example On January 18th the
thermometer stood % degrees below zero; the
wind was rushing at the rate of ffty-seven
miles an hour, and the mountain was enveloped
in clouds of unusual density, filling the air with
drifting masses of frozen mist. Notwithstand-
ing this desolatc and disheartening condition of
affairs, MIR. Smith determined to 60 out on the
mountain and sec for himself how swiftly the
wind was blowing Most people would have
been content to form some idea of the hurrl-
canes speed from the windows of the house,
and by a mental calculation drawn from COM
temptation of the movements Of the clouds;
but not so Mr.. Smith He issued forth with
his scientific instruments, and returned, after
an absence of five minutes, an ice-clad man, or
to quote the language of the dispatch from
Mount Washington announcing the clrcum-
stances, completely covered with frost nearly
two inches in thickness" presenting a specta-
Gle not unlike that of the fly in amber of whom
the ancient poet tells.

10Th, lS7l.-Reuben Bryant and-Mason,
two Of the four prisoners arrested about two
weeks ago upon the charge of robbing the store
of Mr.. Donahau at fuckers Hill near the
Hague, in this county, and of assaulting with
intent to kill Mr.. D., made their escape from
the Jail of Richmond county about 4 o'clock
yesterday morning They were chained to the
floor Of the prison, and the Jail was guarded ut
the timc-how they escaped under these cir
cumstanccS is mystery as yet unexplained.
Bryant is an old offender, being the same who
broke into and robbed the store of the Mcssrs.
Blackjack Of your city several years ago For
that offence he was sent to the Penitentia, J
and had lust served out his term there and
been released, when he made this.rude and
unwelcome call upon Mr. Donahau. His wife
resides in the neighborhood of Tucker Hill,
and it was while he was on his way to visit her
for the first time after his release that this
crime was committed. His accompllccs are
from Norfolk city.
White and Wooodhouse, the other two of the
party arc in Jail at this place. They will be
tried at our next County Court, on the Odd
instant.
The Radicals of our county, so victorious at
the late election of county officers, have failed
to reap the fruits Of their victory. Porter,
who was elected Clerk, and c. W. HUT, the

in the security of their bonds and have forfeit
