COMMUNICATION WITH WASHINGTON. The
Washington Capital says: Alexandria should
bear the same rclatiou to Washington that
Brooklyn does to New York The social and
material interests of both places would be har-
nonized and advanced if the last train did not
60 down with the suo 10 the afternoon and
come up with it the next morning. If the AL
exaDdrians could get back after the plays and
other entertainments were over, our theatres
would have another city added to their constr
tuency, and if Wasbiugtonians could 60 to Al
exandria and return after paying reasonable
VISIT it would be much more popular place
for residences, as people immigrating from here
would not be cut off entirely from old associa-
tious. This suggestic to the railroad com panies
is made in the interest of many who earnestly
desire an improvement in the facilities of
travel"
