The surrounding country, too, duly empties into Fishtown nearly all its noto- rious rowdies of both sexes. It has often struck us as being wonderful, how Alexandria can man- age such a population thus emptied in upon her in an hour, as well as her authorities do manage tocontrol it, and with as much patience and good humor as she manifests under the infliction. The necessities of the protitable business of Fishtown often require those engaged in saving the stapte, day and night ; so the wages earned by the operatives are very high when at work—whis- ky stimulating them in many instances to intense exertions. Few of them leave the wharf at the end of the season with a “red”? in Pocket nearly all of them do carry off a red or black eye, i ‘Gras (he nance nbrpeltaptane ne 8 as sailors returned from a long cruise are so prone Gis spend theirs. “ High, low, Set ae ase oe | ble rigger, the patent-safe we man, er, ch ag oe ply dome pn Se and the retailer of victuals and drink, to say specially that both points of the pen press | = <- other oes coorecete hanging equally upon the ie. { y ‘ i "The marchanisut of the sounds of our language | ,, THe {lonsitsof recesses, Uke tg loneases, ate of was spoken of. as pe rly the business of the | ‘sales of the Washington elty workhouse, laned frst teacher; the enunciation of the pupil was to | forthe nonce te Alecondria ae wee ateue: be made clear and sonorous; rapid utterance of |! i i i friends of that burgh eaty words was to be checked; care must be | '"% Bape sat tis ares er! ts < ore ed taken by the teacher not to run away from the | Some of the most noted specimens of metropolitan mental vision of his class; and only one thin: ‘. was to be taught ata time.

The gentleman who gave the historical account of each view, as it appeared in the frame, acquitted himself well, if we except one or two uncalled for, and I would say, offensive, if not vulgar al- lusions to the Italians of Naples and the Irish of thet telle, New York.

GREE iting it, the assertion itself carries on its face a gross exaggeration ; for it is not hazardous to say that that number of strangers form the maximum of visitors from other countries, and it would re- quire every one of them to lose a pocket handker- cheif to verify the Munchansenism of the histori- cal gentleman alluded to above. His remarks about the emigrant ship discharg- ing a “fresh load of voters’’ at the wharf in New York, and the figure of an Irishman (on canvas) with his ‘linen’ out of his unmentionables, were to my mind in very bad taste, and 1 was proud to see that the large audience present gave the gen- tleman no encouragement by laughing at his ill- timed attempt at wit. Had such ships and such cargoes not came to this country in times past, there would be no Jacksons, Calhouns, Buch- anans, and no, not even the gentleman himself, for I should consider him a descendant of a rag- icker from his delivery and expression ; the man i certainly no American.
