How to Save Money.
BY THE BARD or OAK HAIL.

The times are hard; you'd like to know
How you may save your dollars;
The way to do Il I will show
II you will read what follows:
A man who lived not far from here,
Who worked hard ut his trade,
But had household to support
That squandered all he made.
met him once; says he, "My friend,
l look threadbare and rough
I've tried to get myself suit,
But can't save up enough
Says I, "My friend, how much have you9
III tell you where to go
To get a suit that's sound and cheap
AT SMITH, BRoTHERs & Co."
He took what little he had saved
And went to SMITH & BROTHERS,
And there he got handsome suit
For half he paid to others.
Now he is home he looks so we'll,
And their respect is such
That when they take their daily meals
They don't eat half 30 much.
And now he nnds on Saturday night
With all their wants supplied,
That he has money left to spend
And some to lay aside.
His good success, with cheerful smile,
He gladly tells to all:
IL you d save money, go and buy

The ALEXANDRIA, GEORGETOWN, AND
WARRINGTON RAILRoAD.-The officers Of the
Alexandria, Washington, and Georgetown Rail-
road Company have caused the following state
ment to be published:
The permanent depot will be erected on Mary :
land avenue, at the place where our temporal ry
depot Is now built, between Ninth and Tenth
streets, All trains will depart from and arrive
at this place.
The trains will pass along through to the BAL i.
tlmore and Ohio depot at such times as will meet
the through Southern travel, or to take those
through who arrive from the south-say twice a
day for travel and twice day for freight The
Idea that we will run there every hour in the
day Is q mistaken one. There will be nothing
requiring It, and we will only run Il train whe n
there Ia business.
The road Is not sold, nor In negotiation Of
being sold to any railroad company. It is
private property, however, and will be handled
accordingly.
The sixth street landing and depots Of our
road are purely for local purposes-that is, for
the business between Washington and Alexan-
dria We propose to put up a nice, genteel pas
seuger and marketing landing for the accommo-
dalton of the people. We will keep market car
standing at Alexandria until and 10 D. M for the
evening aud morning markets, to bring up the
vegetables and produce, and will keep 1t until
noon the next day here, to take down goods aud
wares that the people may purchase here The
people Of Alexandria and vicinity are anxious to
have this arrangement made as soon as possible.
II Is the expectation aud desire OF this com
pany that at no distant day there will be con-
struoted track from a point say about Eighth
street, east Of the Capitol, under ground by tun-
mel to near the intersection Of Virginia avenue
or South ID street, aud thence up to the place
where our depot Is situated, on Maryland avenue
This has reference, too, to the concentration at
this point OF the new road to Richmond, or the
Alexandria and Fredericksburg road-the great
Southern line-or the 0rapse aud Alexandria,
and the travel aud freight from the West by the
extension Of the Loudoun and Hampshire road to
Harper's Ferry, and thence by Winchester to
the Interior or coal fields Of Virginia.
II Is not supposed that these roads will be any
disadvantage to Washington when in full opera
tion. The surveying force is now at work on the
Alexandria and Fredericksburg road, and the
Loudouu and Hampshire only requires some
twenty miles to connect Vt at Harper's Ferry.
These are the general purposes aud policy
governing this company in the present and pros. i.
pective management Of their road.
