For this sec¬ tion fair t( nigbt «n1 Wednesday, light varia¬ ble winds._ ^_ Business ???'? Lkauur..-But few attended tbe meeting of tbe Business Men's League last nigbt, and no busi¬ ness was transacted. Those present indulged in an interchange of opinion in connection with Alexandria's affairs, her prospects and hope-«, and it was de¬ cided to make an eilort to bave another meeting next Monday night to wbich all interested in tbe city's welfare would be invited in order tbat some plan caá be formóla'oi by which or commercial eiowth may be accelerated. Mr. ?. B, Harlow stated tbat should our people erect buildings suitable for manufacturing purposes tbey could readily be rented to manufacturers wbo would bave an incentive» to come to Alexandria by tbe oheap rents prevail¬ ing bere. He cited an instance: A gentleman from a neighboring city was here recently looking for a r-uitable building in wbich to locate a silk fac¬ tory. He would have been satiefieid with one floor of any building where sufficient light could have been ob¬ tained. He neither purposed baying or ereoting a structure, but was anxious to lease one. Tbeie was but one place which met his requirements, and tbat was the Mount Vernon Cotton Factory. He found be could not lease even one II »or of that building, aod bad been compelled to leave the city reluctantly. Mr. Harlow further stated that other cities w°re ready to «met such requirement?; that syndi¬ cates were formed, buildioga erected for manufacturirg purposes and money loaned those wbo were ready to embark io such enterprises. He thou-ht a similar spirit should be manifested in Alexandria. The people of Norfolk, he said, bad offered to pat up in sixty day-'lime a suitable building for tbe gentleman wbo wanted to bring bis Bilk factory to Alexandria. The meet¬ ing adjourned after an hour and a half session. Gyi\3V Camp Sbabchbd .Detectives O'Connell, of New York, and Weedon and Parham, of Washington, were out among tbe gypsy campa in tbe vicinity of this city all day yesterday and outil late last night endeavoring to obtain some information in the Willie McCor- mick case, Tbe detectives came to Alexandria late in tbe afternoon and visited the camp at 8r. Asaph, and one located near Fort Myer. Tbe detectives, it is thought, did not make much bead- way yesterday. Detective O'Connell sent several telegraphic communica¬ tions to New York during tbe day, and two more after be returned from this city late laet night. It is understood tbat the detectives are waiting some in¬ formation from Jersey City in reference to a dispatch, which is said to bave been sent there by one of the gypsies last Friday ui-ht, while the two girls were under arrest.

B, Harlow stated tbat shouldour people erect buildings suitable formanufacturing purposes tbey couldreadily be rented to manufacturers wbowould bave an incentive» to come toAlexandria by tbe oheap rents prevail¬ing bere. He cited an instance: Agentleman from a neighboring city was

here recently looking for a r-uitablebuilding in wbich to locate a silk fac¬tory. He would have been satiefieidwith one floor of any building wheresufficient light could have been ob¬tained. He neither purposed bayingor ereoting a structure, but was anxiousto lease one. Tbeie was but one

place which met his requirements, andtbat was the Mount Vernon CottonFactory. He found be could not leaseeven one II »or of that building, aodbad been compelled to leave the cityreluctantly. Mr. Harlow furtherstated that other cities w°re ready to«met such requirement?; that syndi¬cates were formed, buildioga erected formanufacturirg purposes and moneyloaned those wbo were ready to embarkio such enterprises. He thou-ht a

similar spirit should be manifested inAlexandria. The people of Norfolk,he said, bad offered to pat up in sixtyday-'lime a suitable building for tbegentleman wbo wanted to bring bisBilk factory to Alexandria. The meet¬ing adjourned after an hour and a halfsession.
