TERMS OF ADVERTISING

For our own and the convenience of regular
advertisers, and to prevent any misunderstsnd-
ing, we have carefully prepared and scaled the
rates of advertising in the GAZETTE, for the year
1863, and present the following table OF space
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1869-09-14

EnrroRs ARE "BoRN, NOT MADE. The
Cincinnati Enquirer takes the following view
of the policy of the proposed establishment OF a
chair for the especial education OF editors, at
the Washington College. We would like to
see the course of study which would adopt n
man for such life:
I'VE see it stated that a class IN journalism
is to be introduced into Washington College,
Va. The idea is to educate young men Tor the
editorial profession-which will prove one OF
the largest of the many humbugs with which
collegiate lite is being 'doctored these days
The only graduating class Tor Journalist IS
newspaper office, and whatever OF perfectlolilty
is attsinabe must come through hard work and
dear experience. A college may turn out
q herd of esSayists every year. but there won
be q single journalist among them. And who
is to be the Professor Of Journalism? Here
is one great difficulty. Nobody but irst-class
journalist would be competent; and We doubt
il irstclass journalist could be persuaded into
the business. II man wants to be lournai,
ist let him serve sn apprenticeship OF ABOUT
ten wears in the Office OF first class newspaper.
TUE DESTITUTE Poor OF THE DIsTRIT.--
Some few weeks ago the nervous sysem OF citl-
zens here and in Washington was agltated oy
an Official announcement to the effect that 9oo
families in the capital were IN great want Oh
food" This fearful alarm was sounded oy the
National Freedmen's Association IN an otnGiaI
report authorized by the signature OF MRS,
Josephine s. Grifing, agent OF the Bureau 10
which an appeal was made "to the charitable
tor more help"-more help in addition to sou,
600, appropriated by Congress last February TO
the National Freedmen's Reliet Association.
Now was this report bearing the signature OF
Mrs. Josephine S. Grifing false report or
were there, month ago, l,l00 persons in the
capital OF the United States in state of des-
titution aud in great want of tood?" 1t
would be satisfactory to know that the report
was bogus, and that destltution was not pres.
ami and it would be also satisfactory to know
ali about the $50, O00arpropriated by Congress.

IrLOVERs' TRIUMPH IN COURT

A short time since, Miss Maria DOlO.
res Auglada, young lady lacking just
one year OF her legal majority, formed an
attachment to young man named James
Milton DeCOursey, and engaged herself
to marry him. But on applying to her
guardian, Mr.. j. j. Font, for his permis-
sion, he unhesitatingly refused it, stating
that the young mans character was bad.
The young lady instituted suit against
the tutor, summoning him before Judge
Duyignaud, of the Second District Court,
to show cause why he should not eman~
cipate her. The case was tried on Fri
day and Saturday, and was quite an in
teresting one. The young lady and her
betrothed were both in court, as well as
the mother and sister of Mr.. DeConrsey.
The evidence elected the fact that Mr..
DeCoursey bears an excellent character.
Several persons testifying to being we'll
acquainted with him, and having never
seen him smoke, drink, gamble or chew.
The decision of the court was rendered
yesterday, and was that the guardian
should give his consent to the girls mar
rage, and if he refused it, that any juss
tice of the peace should issue license to
the young couple. DeCoursey immedi>
ately took copy Ofthe decision, and with
his betrOthed left the court room in tri-
umph. Mr.. F. MARQUEE, attorney for
the guardian, stated that it was the ins
tention to apply on Monday to the Su.
preme Court for prohibition of the mar"
riage; but it isjust possible that before he
can do so, the twain may have become
one flesh. 1t is two days from Saturday
to Monday, and the young folks were
evidently determined to be married.-N

CLIMATIC INFLUENCES ON ARMIEs.

From the health reports of the British
troops in india it appears that in ten
months seventy eight out of the thou
sand throughout the whole Indian con-
tipgent either died or were rendered
permanently unfit for duty. Nearly one
half of this extraordinary mortality pro-
ceeded from cholera, the ra7ages Of which
are said TO grow yearly more fatal in the
region around its birthplace. An Indian
medical journal says: Forty years ago
the victims were one in five Of those at
tackled, and now these are multiplied to
threefold' This is an extraordinary fact
in regard to cholera, if it be correct. 1t
possibly comes from the increasing bad
habits of the troops. 1t is certain that
great reliance is placed by the Cuba3s
upon the effect OF the tropical climate
upon the Spanish troops at a more adj
vancsd stage of the season, but with re-
gard to yellow fever it does not follow
that these expectations will be realized,
Considerations of this sort were relied
upon during our late war in the South as
against the Northern troops, but, either
from more than usually favorable seasons
or proper sanitary measures, no great dis
advantage resulted from climatic causes
to the armies.

LAND SALES AT THE SoUTH.-There
is quite an active business in real estate
at the South this spring, Farms in Virs
ginia are changing hands constantly, the
purchasers generally being men who pro-
pose TO cultivate themselves. The same
is true in South Carolina and other States
at the South, and very good prices are
realized by the settlers. Alta recent auc>
ton sale in the Kershav district, South
district, South Caroline, a tract of ten
thousand acres was divided up into small
lots and sold on liberal terms, and
good many freedmen were among the
bidders and purchasers. The prices
were fully as high as would
have been obtained before the war. In
North Carolina a tract of twenty thou>
sand acres, which vas in the market at
fifty cents per acre before the war, was
lately sold to German colony at 81 so
per acre. The small farm system will
soon be very generally introduced in the
Southern States, and it will be great
improvement over the old plan Of planta-
tons with hundreds and thousands of
acres Of unimprovsd lands.
