Reported for THE EVENING Stan. AN Important AsseMBLy.—A business mens’ meeting for the purpose of organizing a board of trade is called to take place next Monday morning at the rooms of the corn exchange, on King and Union streets. It is thought that the organization of a board of trade will tend to advance the business interests of the city and ‘ive 1ts business men an organization that will ave the public confidence, and enable com- bined movements to be made to secure favor- able rates of transportation of goods to and from this city; full facilities for shipment and the deliveries of merchandise at the country towns and depots within the compass of Alex- andria trade. This trade has recently been considerably extended and now embraces some of the towns of North Carolina. It is believed that Monday's meeting will be one ot great im- portance to Alexandria, Prospects FoR MANUFACTURES.—The prospect for an increase of manufactories in this city is favorable. A Washington manufacturer made a visit here a few days ago with a view to ascer- tain what help he could obtain in establishing a mill here, e old Buckingham cigar mam- factory, at the corner of Prince and Union streets, has been rented for a broom factory. and it is understood that a number of hands will be employed there. The Alexandria can- nery will renew its season wit increased facili- ties and will do this year a much more exten- sive business than last year. There are pro- sals to increase the manufacture of staves ere and to open a new canning establish- ment. Notes.—The services of “Purification” took place at St. Mary’s church here this morning, and candles were blessed for use in the church services during the year.— An effort will be made to secure a partial rehearing in the sav- as the “mantle” and envelopes the entire body. It is the oyster's pallium, and at the same time is instrumental in procuring the food upon which it is to be nourished, These membranous mantles are fringed at the edges with rows of tiny cilia, or soft fleshy hairs of extreme delicacy with a sense of touch ex- quisitely acute. “The incessant motion of these cilia keep up a constant agitation of the water around, when feeding, and bring to it the spores and animalcule upon which the animal lives. These are carried back to the mouth, which is located at the hinge of the shells. The gills are the respiratory organs, as with the fish. The heart, like that of any other ani- mal, has its auricles and ventricles, and beats with regular pulsations. It has complete circulating apparatus, arteries and veins to perfection. The color of the oys- ter’s blood is a pale, bluish white—it might be called opaline—and the cardiac pulsations are plainly visible. The sex is as decided and cognizable as in any other animal. It has a nervous and muscular system complete. All animals endowed with powers of locomotion have @ propelling fanslion or center. does not appear in the anatomy of the oyster, and for this reason it is incapable of moving about. They are eyeless and consequently blind, but this optical absence is compensated for by its exquisite sensitiveness to impres- sions. ITS CREATION AND GROWTH. ‘The spawn, or **spat” as it is called, of the oyster, at first appears to belong to the vegeta ble kingdom, but as it develops it exhibits a more vigorous and decided character. In a few weeks it is ca dent motion which gradually increases the shells are perfectly formed, when it attains the power of opening and closing them at will. This ; ble of a feeble, indepen- | until | river oyster similar to those taken about and below Cedar Point. The best grades, such as the Annapison, are commanding about 55 cents a bushel. A bushel of small ones will “shuck® out about three quarts, good grades about one WHERE THEY ARE GATHERED, An empty vessel upon starting out for a load heads for the grounds offering the best oppor- tunities for the grade desired, and upon reach- ing destination a basket is run up to the topmast, indicating what it is there for. The gatherers, dredgers, and tongers swarm around it like ee inves: bg canoes, which hold from thirty to fifty bi ‘is each. The load is bought in- discriminately, at prices governed by the de- mer eet ge ay ge assorted as they are put into the hold. If acaptain of a vessel wants a special order filled. or is in a hurry to load and return, and is willing to pay a better price than the ruling quotations, a second et is run up and he is soon overwhelmed with the pedlars. But should another iu want them 5 cents a bushel worse than he up goes his third basket, and every mother's sou of them will stop short off with No. 2 and sell the balance to the other man.
