Between Goidonsville and this city, is a
very splendid farming reglon-capable Of
being made to produce as much grass,
grain and fruit, with proper culture, as any
other equal number OF acres. And Of most
OF the section between Tins and Alexan-
dria the same may be said. The surface IS
undertaking, though on nearly level,
somewhat resembling the broad prairles of
Illinois in plains and slopes.
This city now shows considerable EVIL
dences ot lie and Improvement new
buildings are gong up; streets are being
graded and paved grounds and yards are
being ornamented F; and the new courthouse
nearly completed. There IS considerable
activity at the stores and shops, and mills.
Another favorable thing IS that line
new hotel mas recently been opened here
in commodlons building, at the corner OF
Name and cameron streets, by Mr.. >. Il.
Ashby, formerly oil Warrenton. The
house and furnishings are new and clean,
and the place Is kept IN excellent style;
while the landlord and his sons are courte-
GUS aud attentive. It is pleasant place
for families to spend the warm season.

A correspondent of the New York Post,
writing from Arenberg, where Eugene
and her son have taken refuge, gives this
description of the pair:
TO those who had not seen Eugene since
she ruled by her beauty as much as by her
crown in the magnificent halls of the
Tuiieries, the change in face and form was
almost painful. The bright complexion,
the naughty eye, the winning smile and the
supple, 1.-THE movement of the graceful fig
ure were no longer there. Nevertheless,
no one would have given the fair lady, who
looked with eager eyes on the bright scene
before her, the thirty-six years which she
will soon have completed. Though care
sits on her brow, and the once rosy lips
speak of many a bitter disappointment
and newly-learned contempt for the tickle
world, the face is still beautiful and even
youthful; the sloping shoulders still come
down from the full, white neck in match
less undulatiDg lines, and as the Empress
sprang lightly from the low phaeton her
step was as elastic and her carriage as
erect as in the days when she was still but
the Countess of montijo.
Those who haveever seen her need not
to be told that her toilet was one Of won-
drous simplicity and exquisite taste, al
though, in defiance Of the prevailing fash.
ion, she wore, not the reigning color of
blue, but her own favorite green from
ed with the silent beauty of the scene
before her, and enchanted with the hope
of being allowed to do as she pleased, un-
encumbered by the strict regime of En-
glish etiquette, and unrestrained by the
caution which the argus eyes OF countless
daily visitors had exacted in her distant
exile.
THE HOPE OF THE BoNRpARTIsTs.
Perhaps the beautiful widow gained
additional charms, in the eyes of the few
friends who received her in the grounds,
by the contrast with her son, on whom she
is apparently by no means disposed to
dote. Lulu, as the Germans call him
contemptuously, is an. unpromising lad,
resembling his mother only in womanly
weakness. and his father is uncouthness of
feature and sleepiness of eye. Although
seventeen years old, he has but little man
liness about him, and while the loose gait
and ill-jointed figure might be excused on
the score of his tender year, there is want
of decision in his face, and even in his
walk, which are far from prepossessing.
In fact, he looks like spoiltmother's son,
in urgent need il not of the baptism of fire,
to which his unlucky father pompously
proposed to subject him. at least of a
good, sound drubbing by friend, which
might make him aware that he is also
made of flesh and blood like other mortals,
and rouse in him a more manly spirit
His adherants, however, hope great things
of his military career; he will be sent in
few days to the town of Thun, there to
enter regiment Of infantry, and after q
short period Of trial to be commissioned a
sub-lieutenant. At later time he will
probably, after his fathers example, ask
to be transferred to the artillery, the crack
corps Of the Swiss army, in which the
Emperor also served for time, and earned
no small distinction.
