IBy telegraph to the Dlspatcn.I
WASHINGTON, January Ex-senator Aid
rich returned to Washington from Rhode
Island this morning. During the morning
hour he was busily engaged consulting a
number of his Republican colleagues upon
the condition Of the business of the Senate
and the prospects of successful outcome
of further attempt TO secure the passage
of the closure rule and the elections bill.
As already indicated in these dispatches,
il was found that there was pronounced
indlsposition on the part of number of
Republican senators again TO enter upon
what they regarded as hopeless struggle,
in view Of the fact that the Republican
boilers are still presumably OF the same
mind as they were when they voted TO lay
the closure rule aside. Consequently, it
may be stated with positiyeness that the
managers of the elections bill have finally
decided to abandon the measure in the in
terest of the important public business re-
naming TO be acted upon. As a result of
this decision, II Is conceded on both sides
Of the chamber that the necessity for an
extra session of Congress disappears. The
decision has been communicated to the
Democratic senator's.

THE SALE OF LIQUOR ON SUNDAY.
The City Fathers of Alexandria Want to
Adopt the State Law.


correspondence OF the Richmond Dispstchl
ALEXANDRIA, Va, January 31.-The city
fathers have under discussion the advlsa-
bility of incorporating the State ordinance
which forbids the sale of liquor on Sun
day into the local ordinances of the city.
The measure was brought up in the last
meeting of the City Council and the lower
board of Common Council agreed to it, but
it was tabled by the Aldermen, who seemed
to think that the measure reflected on
Judge Norton, of the Corporation Court, in
his enforcement Of the State law, and that
the making of it city ordinance would
take the trials of such cases out of the
hands of the State Court. 1t was explain
cd that the object of the measure was only
to throw the fines received from such cases
into the treasury of Alexandria city, and
that the State would have concurrent
jurisdiction with the city in all such cases
as it has in others. 1t is thought that the
bill will become law at the next meeting
Of the Council.
A TALK ON PENMANsHlP.
The public-school teachers of this city
hold teachers institute" nearly every
Saturday morning, at which, some one
prominent in educational circles in this
city or Washington will lecture or talk on
some matter appertaining to classroom
work. This morning Professor IL. @. Spen-
Ger. one of the authors of the Spencerian
system of penmanship, gave them most
interesting talk on penmanship, illustrating
his lecture by means of the blackboard.
He showed the teachers the latest methods
of teaching writing in the various grades,
and told them of the shortest ways OF
reaching the best results.
FOLLOW THIS EXAMPLE.
The Alexandria County Commissioners
have awarded contracts for the repairs and
overhauling Of large number of the roads
in the county, and when these are fixed Alex.
andria county will have as good roads as
any in the State. Over $4,000 will be
spent on about twenty-five miles of road.

Blocks of Buildings In Danger.

CHARLOTTE. n. c., January 91.-At this
moment, 1880 o'clock, the Wilson Drug
Company's large wholesale drug house is
on fire. The fire originated in the base
ment, and so far the efforts of the firemen

fire Is gaining Roadway. Dense clouds Of
smoke issue from the building. This store
is under the Belmont annex of the Central
Hotel, and is in the very heart of the town.
Unless the firemen succeed in putting the
fire out one of the best blocks of buildings
will be laid in ashes. Every effort is being
made to subdue the flames. The streets
are thronged with people.
