will forget the hideous face which en-.

shrine ofa transcient shadow. beautiful

which endureth forever! But thus it
has ever been, and will be until the end
of time. The glittering bauble, set in
gold, though it be but piece of trans
parent glass, will attract more admirers
than the valuable diamond in its native
state. Few can detect the spurious
from the real and still fewer care Ia
look beyond the encrustation that en-
shrines the jewel, so dazzled is their
vision by the tinsel that attracts them!

LOCAL NEWS.

We referred, in Yesterdays Gazette, to the
report that a petition had been prepared, ask
op for retrocesson Of Alexandria, to the
District Of Columbia. The following is.a copy
Of tbe aforesaid petition, which, however, we
have not been able to learn is very numsrously
signed Its object is, as we stated yesterday,
nlischievous, and we hope will be encouraged
As will be seen, political feeling is at the
bottom Of the project, and i IS be to
hoped that Congress will pay no attention what
ever to the petition, as it is misrepre-
sentation Of the sentiment Of this community
IF necessary, the Legislature should take ac-
ton in the premises. Here is the petition:
4The undersigned, loyal citizeDs,of Alexan-
dria, Va, believing our prosperity would be
greatly increased by beiLg restored to the Dis
trict Of Columbia, and by being relieved from
the taxation and oppression, of the disloyal
Legislature at Richmond Va, respectfully
ask Congress to do whatever may be necessary,
to restore the County of Alexandria to it's con-
dition previous to the year 1916.
