Washinoton.s Ffoure.

/ have spent much time this week in the
grassgrown streets Of Alexandria Va,
chatting with the old citizens about George
Washington and gathering together such ira
ditions Of him as have come down TO them
from their fathers. The traditions Of Alex
andria represent him as q very proper young
fellow, six feet tall, rather stately In carriage
and exceedingly fond Of horses. He liked
20 try new horses, and IL Is said that during
n single day he rode ten different horses in
Alexandria. Every one tells me that he
made fne-loOking figure on horseback. lie
sat straight and had thorough command OF
his steed. This straightness he kept until
the last. He Is said TO have danced great
deal as young man, and to have been very
fond Of balls. have no doubt that he danced
somewhat, but / do not think that he ever
unbent himself 10 any extent The dance
Of ante-Revolution days was FAR different
from the yoluptuous waltz and the fantastic
german Of the present. The tninuet, for in
stance, is more like a funeral tread than a
ballroom skip, and Washington could easily
move through this without appearing any
thing but eminently espectable.-l carp
