ALEXANDRIA.

Every year makes it more evident that the
accident which cut OF from the municipal
ity of Alexandria portion OF the land iy-
ing between the city and Hunting creek
should be remedied. When the city was in
corporated in 1779 Hunting creek was its
south boundary, but with the cession to the
United States in 1871. the District line which
runs in a northwest direction from the
light house to very near the intersection of
Wolfe and West streets. was laid out, ex-
Guiding from the town parts of jefferson,
Green and Church streets and the whole of
South and Penny Hill streets with the
southern ends of every street in the city
except Lee street. This land was laid out
as part of the city of Alexandria and would
be benefited by being restored to it's original
municipal relations. 1t is, as rule, well
adapted for building. and except at its east
ern end, where there is a small marshy
portion. it is a cultivated plain. having a fine
view of the Potomac and OF Hunting creek
easily graded into streets and admirably
adapted to buildings of all kinds. 1t cannot
be long before the interests of all concerned
will extend Alexandria to the creek shore
