the wheels properly, slid into the second, doloe

Correspondence Of the Alexandria Gazcttn.
LEEsBUKG, Va, Jan. 1.-THE court open
ed to-day with az unusual attendance Of the
bar from a distance. Judge Thomas, General
Payne, Mr.. Forbes, Mr.. holland, and al the
resident attorneys were here. Gen. Hutton
was absent. | presume because Monday is the
free fight day 10 the House, and having an
efficient psrtoer here it was not necessary to be
on the ground so early in the court.
The chat CRY dock t wa, called and the cases
assigned as far ahead certainly as the second
Thursday, thus indicating that tie court vii,
probably not adjourn before Saturday morning,
January 29,h.
There was a very small attendance IF persons
from the ccuntry, the exceedingly bad roads
and the absence of the criminal trials tending
to keep them away from town.
1t is probable that the sending of the crimi,
uals to the County Court will do away with the
necessity of more circuits, as the dispatch of
business will be much greater, not only because
practically three days are thus added to the
term for civil business, but because the absence
Of the crowd usually attending on criminal
trials will tend 10 the preservation of order
and the facility for trausactlug business.
| am sorry to say that there are more houses
vacant 10 aud about town than | have ever
known. l think the reason is the enormous
rents asked and heretofore paid tor them.
Some persons prefer boarding as cheaper.
Another reason for pretcrring boarding is that
servants are so unccrtaln, and besides so many
of that class keep house that it is expensive to
hire and feed servants.
If anything can be made lower than it is by
the resumption of specie payments it must be
whlskuy, tor ever; thug else, including land, is
much lower than | have known it since 1914.
One comfort we can look forward to is that
ice will be very abundant Dcxt year, and very
good. The TWO ponds of Mr.. Boucher and
Mr.. Vanderbilt have improved the quality of
Ice very much and made its handling much
easier.
Will Chalklcy Giilingham let us know
whether this January is not very similar 10
that Of 1851? My impression is that there was
no rain or suow 10 that mouth Of 1851 to in
tertere with grading on the O. T. a. Il. h. at
Bull Run. | think the men employed by the
company made 26 or 81 days.
The call lor the meeting of those interested
10 the turnpike to the Point Of Rocks Was DOT
responded to, though the opinion is generally
expressed that It ought to be made, aud scve.
raj persons have said they would subscribe
literally. A leader ls wanted. ALloUIs.

From the counties already heard from It
Is certain that the Democrats hold their
own. Il they have not gained. We have
lost four members in Wake. two in Cum

The Democratic supremacy will therefore
be maintained as II has been since 1870,
