LOCAL NEWS.

We are informed that some few of the. bona
fde citizens of Alexandria have refused to sign
the remonstrance againstthe annexation Of this
county to the District of Columbia, to be pre-
sented by committee appointed by the Mayor
and City Council, to the Congress of the United
States. The gentlemen SO refusing have GER
tainly not devoted that serious consideration to
the subject which the Importance OF its results
demands. The bill proposed to the Senate by
Mr.. Wade for the annexation of Alexandra to
the District of Columbia-utterly ignoring the
desires and inclinations Of the inhabitants OF
the unfortunate territory will be found, when
carefully examined, to be based upon two ideas,
and two only, but for the realization of which,
the proposer- and it is feared a majority OF
those at present occupying seats in the halls OF
the Capitol-would cheerfully "Polandize' the
mother of States, and diSfranchise an entire
community These two ideas are, first, gen
e1Gl and political one-the enforcement OF ne
gro suffrage upon soil legally belonging to Fir-
.,inia, All extension OF the area OF freedom, y
III eheAl Idusua3e inu, sScoculy, d locai a"o
personal one-the ejectment from their posi-
tiols of Jew State officials, whose salaries at
iord theit families the means of subsistence, -
Upon these two points the bill is hung, and,
surely, TO. the attainment of such objects 60
Virginian, o4 one imbued with the principles,
for the possession of which Virgipia's sons are
distinguished aud honored, can be willing to
lend his assistance. Tie bill in full WIS plb-
lisEeGi in the Gazette of Wednesday last, aud
7:e are certain that after its attentive perusa,
TO Ole, having the honor and interests Of our
lo5ne ut heart, will refuse to append his sign
ranuel to the remonstrance in circulation.
