ENCOURAGING.-ltw was stated in yes
terday's GAZETTE that Col. Anderson,
chief counsel in Washington for the Mt.
Vernon electric railway, said he would
present the bill to Congress for an eX-
tension of the road to Washington, via
a bridge over a Potomac as soon as pos
sible. In an interview last night Col.
Anderson, who is one Of the vice presi
dents of the National Board Of Trade,
said: ION the south, the Washington,
Alexandria and Mount Vernon Elec-
trio Railway Company, composed of
capitalists from Philadelphia and New
York, will soon prolong its existing
line from Alexandria to Arlington. and
bridge the Potomac at its own expense,
bringing the cars from Observatory
Hill along B and Fifteenth streets to
the south front of the Treasury Depart
ment. In addition to this New Alex.
andria, owned by the same syndicate,
will soon be transformed into large
manufacturing city, in other words, the
manufacturing district of the national
capital. Already one big plant has
been established there by western cap
italists, and, as announced in the Alex
andria papers on Saturday last, a Penn
sylvania syndicate has just purchased
eighty acres for locomotive and plow
establishment, the products to go large.

ger; A. B. Andrews, general agent;

Speciality in the Cracker line, of George B,
Hill Co., SODA TOAST
It works its way into popular favor, for the
following reasons:
1st 1t has something of the flavor, and of
the qualities of these higher priced sponged
fakes such as Sea Foam, Snow Drift, &c, but
sells at about 4 cents per pound less. It's
small size and greater substance makes it a
prime favorite with all classes.

AMONG The BELLIES.
Upon Whom Shall the Mantle
Fall 4?
What One Of the Lovely ASplrantS Has
to Say.
The Women Will be lnterested--But
Won't the Men!

Since the day the lovely Miss Willing left
Philadelphia TO become the bride OF John
Jacob Astor. her mantle Of belle has been
variously bestowed among the beautiful
young ladies OF the City Of Brotberly Love.
But among the candidates for this honor there
are certainly few more beautiful than Miss
Anna King, who resides at l36 Diamond
Street. Philadelphia.
Our portrait Is very far from doing the
young lady justice, but IL will serve 10 call
the attention Of her many friends and ad-
mirers TO the fact that she is again in excel
lent health. For il must be known that Miss
King has been most seriously ill-so seriously
in fact, that her physicians gave her up say
