DRINK LESS WITH Your MEALS
Many men have relieved themselves
of dyspepsia by not drinking anything,
during their meals. No animal, ex-

with its food. Man ought not to-
Try this, dyspeptics, and you will not
wash down mechanically that which

The CANAL.-A break occurred yesterday
morning at o clock in the Alexandria Canal
over the Culvert, opposite Georgetown. The
BOTTOM Of the canal washed out about 80 feet
below its bed.
There is no truth in the rumor Of break in
the Chesapeake and Ohio canal at the Seneca
Guard Lock. 1t originated in the sinking of
the boat E. Stanhope. This has been removed,
aud will no longer interfere with the passage of
boats, though it has caused some delay.

We hope to see her spring forward in the

attract the rich products Of This country
There is no reason Why Alexandria and Rich

day noon Henry johnson, who shot Thomas
s. Smoot was brought before Justice Morsell,
at the Central Guard house, and through his
counsel, Mr. w. D. Davidge and John Il.
johnson, waived an examination, and was
committed to jail to await the action OF the
Criminal Court in his case.
johnson had on Wednesday an interview, 1T
is stated, with Justice Buckley, of Georgetown,
and told him of his determination, and wished
EIr. Buckley to look after his property in the
event of his meeting with any mishap. The
Justice advised him not to entertain such an
idea az he had expressed, and thought it he
would calmly consider the matter he would
avoid anything that would bring him into
trouble.
Yesterday morning the sons of Mr. johnson
two boys-visited the statIon-house. They
stated that their mother was at home In
Georgetown, and had returned Thursday night.
AS the officers were in readiness to take Mr..
johnson to Jail, they suggested that it might
be more agreeable for the prisoner If they
would hire O hack for this purpose, and there
by avoid meeting any of his acquaintance. =
Mr.. johnson calmly replied that ne should
prefer 20 walk as to his friends, he was not
ashamed OF anything he had ever done, and
certainly had no reason to avoid any one, He
was permitted to walk in custody of the
officers, and proceeded to the jail to await the
result oil the case.
Mrs. johnson is still at her home in George
town. and declines to converse about the hom-
icide, Of which she has been the cause, and an
unwilling witness Whatever blame is to be
attached to the fearful act OF her husband she
believes should rest upon her.-Nat. Int.
The remains Of Mr.. Smoot were escorted to
Ivy Hill Cemetery, this morning, by many of
his former friends and associates, and inferred
there.
