Wise, in his address night before last, mentioned the meny hard marches and the heavy fighting done by the comgesy in North- Western Virginia and at Reanoke Island. He told them that he could always rely on them; that he never knew them to falter; Lat, he said, they were + most incorrigible blockade run- ners.” They always knew where good things were to be had, and they would always have them. He said they seta very bad example in this respect. He mentioned the services done by the brigade in the Army of Northern Vir- ginis, and said that—when at Appomattox the army was drawn up to receive the last order from the commander-in-chief—the division to which the brigade belonged was the only one Mentioned by name, and the only two brigades in the division were Ransom’s and Wise’s. He said he had surrendered in good taith, and ‘was a paroled prisoner of war; but that, being above the rank of colonel, he could not apply for pardon without taking a test oath, and that he could not do. He advised the young men who beard him to let their surrender be like- Wise in good faith. Their duty was toendeavor to reinstate our beloved Commonwealth in her former grandeurand glory. Talk not of leaving her, she is still the most delightful and degr- est portian of all the earth. e warned them net to epconrage any thought of establishing a separate government. They were citizens of the Union, and must remain so; and the idea if the Government got into war with a foreign power an opportunity would be afforded to re- new the rebellion, was a chimera. If they tought arain they must fight under the “stars and stripes.” It wae bis flag; it was their flag. iie had never seen the day, not even when or- dering bis men to charge those who carried it, that he did not love it better than any of them could do. He said that when more than four thousand miles from home that flag waa the sheltering @gis that protected him. It was still the symbol of liberty to the a of the whole world, for it was only this country that afforded an asylum from despotism. He urged his hearers to go to work; not tobe idle, nor to foal about the streets. He said that he would issue bis lastorder to them as their General. it was, that none of them should be drones. If they could not get the work to do that they had been accustomed to, then do whatever came to hand. Dosometbing. If they could not get money for their work, then work for their victual and clothes. If they could not gettheir clothes, then work for their food: if they could not get meat, then work for bread. 1t was the duty ofevery manto do something for him- self, his family, and his country. AexanpEra Arvains.— We understand that the President and Directors of the Alexan- dria Canal, have applied to the Legislature, now in session, for a grant of the State’s inter- est in that, to our city, vitally important work, and that a bill has prepared in further- ance of that object, which is now receiving the consideration of the House. We are not in- formed as to the provisions of the bill.—Gaeette. Mr. Underwood, the U.S. Marshal, and Mr. Dunean, his deputy, it is said, are serving writs upon Mr. John S.

The Alexandria Journal says that three rob- bers were detected last night making an attempt to enter the premises of Mr. William H. Muir, on Columbus street, near Odd Fellows’ Hall. ‘Watebmen Penn and Berry were in the vicin- ity, and pounced — the party, two of whom succeeded in making their escape. The third was knocked down while attempting to scale a fence, and subsequently conveyed to the watch house. This morning the thief was brought before the Mayor, when it was diseovered that the rogne had a false moustache, made with burnt cork, and his face was otherwise dis- figured. He gave his name as John Clancy, and bis residence as New York city. He was committed to jail to await a trial at court. From the Journal we learn that the bodies of the Union soldiers who fell in the skirmishes near Falls’ Church, in 1861, are being disin- terred for re-burial im the soldiers’ cemetery at Arlington ASnREWD WayTo Get A Dinner.—The Omnibus, of Naples, relates a story of a man who found means to turn to account the popu- iar apprehensions of poisoners which have prevailed there since the appearance of the cholera.
