THE ALDINE while issued with all the

periodicals. It is an elegant miscellany
Of pure. light, and graceful literature;
and " collection Of pictures, the rarest
specimens of artistic skill. in black and
white. Although each succeeding num-
Der affords 4 fresh pleasure to its friends,
the real value and beauty of THE AL-
DINE will be most appreciated after it
has been bound up at the close Of the
year. While other publications may
claim superior cheapness, as compared
with rivals Of q similar class, THE AL
DINE is u unique aud original conception

without competition in price or character.
The possessor Of a complete volume can
not duplicate the quantity Of fine paper
and engravings in any other, shape or
number Of volumes for ten times its cost;
and then, there are the Chromos, be-
sides!

success, and greatest general interest;
avoiding such as have become familiar,
through photographs, or copies Of any

The quarterly tinted plates, for 1879,
will reproduce fur Of John S. Davir' inim-
table child-skeches, appropriate to the

GRAND MASS MEETING.

There will be grand mass meeting of the
citizens of Alexandria held at Sarepta Hall, on
Monday evening, the Sd of June, 1872, at eight
clock, looking to the encouragement of the
present Military Company known as the Alex
andria Grays, as organized under the act of AS
sembly of last session. 1t is proposed at THIS
meeting not only to present to our citizens the
necessity for such an organization, but to give
to the gentlemen composing the new company
such practical evidence of our appreciation of
their zeal and patriotism as will place the COM
pany upon q solid basis, and among the best Or
ganizations of its kind in the State. If any as
sistance is to be given them, now is the accepted
time, for when thoroughly organized and equip
ped, the fines and dues will be amply sufficient
to meet all their expenses. Volunteer military
companies are in existence in nearly all the
cities of the State, and Alexandria should take
pride in having at least one such organization
as nucleus around which others may in the
future congregate All are invited therefore to
come to the meeting, and to come prepared to
contribute according to their ability to the sue
cess of the movement.

OFFICE ALEXANDRIA, WATER Att co.
The unprecedented early commencement of q
general and severe drought has excited the APP
prchension of short supply Of water, and calls
for preventive measures on the part of its OFF,
GERS to provide against all unnecessary waste by
consumers. ~
1t is the earnest request of the President and
Directors to heads of families that no unneces-
sary waste shall be permitted, and that servants
and children shall shut off hydrants as soon as
possible when used. ...
Especial attention is called to the use Of wash
pans and bath-tubs, both fruitful sources waste.
The rules and regulations of the Company,
under it's charter, provide fines and penalties for
any and all unn necessary Uaste, and it becomes
the imperative duty of the officers, especially
under the condition of q scamt supply, to enforce
these wholesome regulations upon all offenders.
A deficiency of this indispensable article to
housekeepers induces US to hope that we shall
be sustained in our efforts to prevent all ,casts,
while furnishing all parties with necessary
supply for domestic purposes. ,
