correspondence Of the Alexandria Gazette
MARCH 2Ist, 1867. Notwithstanding that
over the head Of cirI Virginia hangs the sword
of military ruler, and every right citizen Of
The sold Domidion' once boasted Of is at the
mercy Of his will, aud our only consolation is in
the fact that he who holds that sword is high
minded gentleman as we'll as soldier, Court
Of Civil Jurisdiction actually has been sitting
here for three days, and Grand Jury has pre-
sumed to discharge its functions
1t is hardly worth while to detail to you their
proceedings Several indictments were found
for assault and petit larceny, and two negroes
we're tried and foed SO each tor committing
The former misdemeanor, Buta few civil cases
we're tried, the weather being so bad as to pre-
ven. parties from attending Court. In fact,
the year seems to have gone back and taken
fresh start.
The would be- Mayor Of Alexandria and CUR
socaled Commonwealth $ Attorney, has found
food to batten on in some OF the verdlcts hat
have been ren1ered, and has report saysj gone
in hot haste to Richmond to lay his distorted
statement before Gen Schofeld. This is not
surprising Such persons can only exist on the
garbage which is stirred up and thrown to the
surface Of society by commissions such as we
have seen for the last five years, and it is TO
the interest Of these to keepup the commoti0n.
in order to prevent them from settling down to
tie depths to which they belong.
It would be improper to say anything till Mr.
fuckers hand is shown, but promise you, if
aught is done by him to injure and oppress hat
people whose protector kis Office requires him
t, lie, but whom will give the
public true account Of these Verdicts, &C.,
which will show him thing or two he ought
10 be told about.
The Poll at Leyyinayille has been changed to
Langley by order OF Court. We m7ay have use
for an election precinct yet, and can bear this
in mind. PEQUOD.

The Water Fall Horror.
From the New York World.

From the New York World.
The publication by the World Of the 'Chig-
non Horror, % revealed by scientific writer in
the London Lancet, showing thst in every
waterfall not composed Of the natural hair OF
the wearer, land possibly in cases even where
the hair is natural, there are millions Of para
site gregarines, has called out numerous COM
municationz on the subject, all lively and
prolific in suggestions, from which We select
the following:
Sir: You and the scientific writer in the
London Lancet are both in error in speaking
of the parasites in the& tchignons' as pediculi
or burlakes or gregarines. They are merely
animalcule, thousands oi which may be seen
in single drop Of water, and ofcourse millions
would be manifest in waterfall.
Yours respectfully, II.
Sir: AS one Of the preservers Of the public
peace, deem it my duty to allay the excite.
ment growing out of the "chignon horror, By
detailing faithful account of vivissection of
frstclass waterfall, made By myself on the
night of the 10th ult. My duties call me to
the doorway Of some one of the theatres at the
close of the evening performances. After the
last carriage had driven away from Wallack S
on the night in question. [ turned to 90 home,

asleep Upon examination (afier striking it
with my baton, I found that it was large
sized waterfall. / took it home and found it
to be composed of the following materials -
Item, piece of an old buffalo robe; item, a
hair pillow; itsm, the lost books of Livy item
a 2ouave uniform jacket; the whole enclosed in
an old copy Of the Tritune, containing that
article on Kansas" and covered with hair; =
Not even tie 'gregarines' could stand this
collection Of chignon compounds, tor there
we're none visible either to microscopic examl-
nation or to the eaked eye.
-, Policeman, No.
Sir: have worn a waterfall night and day
without ouce removing it till read your article
on the ''chignon horror. l then took OF my
waterfall, gave look at it, and-swooned. |
have abandoned my chignon, and have forbid
den the wearing Of them by my asug ghtera.

distracted househould, Those who wish fol
similar happiness must leave of their water.

SIR: There must be some mistake about nc
degree Of heat destroying the g!egarines. -

close the door about two minutes, then openl It.
