SR,-To satisfy every enquiry, Ibeg leave to
state, that the small flag displayed at times when
there are many strangers in town, is for the pur-
pose of directing their attention to that part of
the Public Buildings, in which the Museum is To-
cated-the sign on the walls, not being seen, ex-
cept from the west side of the street.
also avail myself ofthis occasion, further to OBJ
serve, that the National Banner, is reserved for
public occasions, such as the 4th of July; Wash
ington's Birth Day. Muster Days; Public Elec-
lions; anniversaries Of Charitable Societies, &c.
and on such glorious day as this--the 18th day
of April--when the Directors of the Bank of
Potomac, and Directors of the Farmers Bank
of Alexandria, have so nobly, so independent
ly, and SO honorably stepped forth, and pledged
their private fortunes to sustain the reputation
oftheir Respective insttutions--and consequent
ly the honor and credit of the City of AleXan-

These counties were last winter represented
by Jackson-V an Buren, Rives- collar men; but
now the tables have turned-the Wings have
triumphed.
Thus does the West present one solid phalanx,
and will nobly breast the storm of Jacksonism,
that is raging over our devoted country. In some
of these counties strong appeals were made to
the party, particularly by DR.. Creel, in Wood,
who putforth long "protest," going the whole,
according to direction, but who met with sig
nal defeat. The West differed from Leigh, in
the Convention but moao that he is the champion
Of the Wings Of 1884, she will die with him, in
the last ditch, in defence of her Liberties and
thee constitution other country.

LIBERIA.
To the Citizens of Alerandria.

10 the Citizens Of Alexandria.
Interesting accounts have lately been receiv.
ed from our Colony in Africa. 1t is gradually
rising-the general health is good-and the
deaths very few.
The Rev. Mr.. Pinney, the present Agent OF
the Colonization Society, in a full and valuable
report to the Society, says, among other things:
" In relation to the moral and religious state OF
the Colony, cannot compare it with former
years, not having had experience. There is as
in all other communities, so here, larger por-
ton Of vice than the good would wish to see: yet
am persuaded that large portion Of the COM
munity is virtnous, and inclined to favor Sc
we're construction of the laws"
I" In relation to the Schools, am not prepar-
ed to make any but the most general remarks.
The teachers at present employed seem very at
tentive, and, as general thing, very success
full Mr.. Edelin's school at New Georgia, sup
ported by the ladies in Philadelphia, is greatly
cramped in it's operations for want of a suitable
room; and all the schools are suffering more or
less from scarcity Of books stationary, &C. &c.
At present more than forty children at Edna
are growing up to the privileges of freemen,
without one school to teach the rudiments of
learning"
81 remarked before, that all the schools need
ed books and stationary. This want is press
ing Do call upon the Christian community in
America to turn portion of their charities into
this channel. Let them knoaO, that, TO ertend
knowledge and promote sound piety, quire Of
paper is, at the present moment, Of more north
than the Bible. Bibles and Tracts have been
sent here, and either used as waste paper, or
made food for worms. Why2 Not because
the people despise either, but because we have
not a reading population" Let them raise
societies for supporting schools, such as those
formed by the ladies of Philadelphia d-Rich-
mond-and not only to support schools, but to
supply teachers. Let the pious spend some of
their aims in supplying us with paper and books
fit for the primary schools; and then we shall
be able benefcially TO receive their donations
of devotional works.
The object of the officers of the Alexandria
Colonization Society, in presenting you the
above extracts will at once be seen. 1t is to
show you the wants of our interesting Colony,
and to give you an opportunity of assisting to
relieve them. We deem it unnecessary to urge
any arguments to a community SO ready to
every good work; and shall say in conclusion,
that if any of you will send school books, whe-
Their old or new, or stationary of any kind, to
the store of Mr.. VIM Gregory; to DR.. Alexan-
der's office, or. TO the dwellings of the Rev
Messrs. Harrison or Cornelius, they will take
care that they be duly forwarded to the Colony

Mr.. SNowDEN-The gratifying intelligence is
atlength announced that the Old Dominion has
renounced Jacksonism, and that the Wings have
hiumphed in Virginia. Hook upon this as one
Ofthe most important political events that has
ever occurred in this country. 1t far exceeds
IN Importance the New York Election, which
mas been so Justly regarded as remarkable
syn ofthe times. You mention that celebra-
TOMS to take place in Richmond. / hope So,
and trust that like celebration will be held IN
every county of the State, and in every State of
NE Union. How gratifying to think that Vir-
gnla has come out, openly and manfully, in this
Jay OF peril, to the rescue of the Constitution!
and what moral weight she will throw on the
noe OF correct principles in the contest.
cannot the Wings Of Alexandria unite with
@elr brethren in their parent State, in some pa
Slohc demonstration on the occasion2 have
heard that the suggestion has been made by an
auent Wing in the private circles? |, for one,

Anen every American citizen ought to stand
