OFFICE ALEXANDRIA WATER CO.,
" May 18th, 1872.
The unprecedented early commencement of Il
general and severe drought has excited the APP
prehension 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 rs soon a
possible when used.
Especial attention is called to the use of wash
pans and bath-tubs, both fruitful sources ofwaste.
The rules and regulations Of the Company,
under its charter, provide fines and penalties for
any and all unnecessary maste, and it becomes
the imperative duty Of the officers especially
under the condition of a scant supply, to enforce
these wholesome regulations upon aIl offenders.
a deficiency of this Indispensable article to
housekeepers induces US to hope that we shall
be sustained in our efforts to prevent au wnsts.

| SERMON TO YOUNG MEN-On last Sunday
night in the Baptist Church of this place, Rev.
Geo. B. Taylor. Pastor of that Church, deliver
ed an interesting sermon, specially addressed to
young men. His text was portion of the 38th
verse of the 41st chapter of Genesis -
"Cdn zoe find such one as this u.s. a man in
aohom the spirit of God as?"
He prefaced his remarks by stating that no
more interesting and profitable stories are to be
found anywhere than in portions of the Old Tes-
tament-that the story of Joseph is specially so.
After speaking briefly of Joseph, he entered
upon the sermon proper. The first point was.
that there was demand for a naan-such as q
man ought to be. There were plenty of men,
but comparatively few Of the character con-
templated in the text
The second point was, the kind of man that
was in demand. He should be reliable man
one upon whom implicit reliance could be placed.
He should be man of capacity-having capac-
ity to discharge faithfully and we'll the duties of
his position, whatever that might be.
He should be an honest man, faithful in the
discharge of all his obligations.
He should be man of chastity and purity of
character.
He should be diligent and attentive to his du-
and evils. The devil tempted other men. but
the idle man tempted the devil
That many men possess some of the qualities
specified, but few possess them ALL
The source of the virtues mentioned, was true
piety. The pious man is superior to another who
is his equal in all other respects, but is wanting
in piety. He should be 'son of the living
God" and his conduct sh ould be conformed to
the will of his Heavenly Father.
He exhorted the young men to beware of
thoughtlessness, and in that connection quoted
the language of Ruskin who said, in substance,
that there was no apology for thOughtlessness on
the part Of young men, who had their fortunes
to make and their destinies to mould-that there
might be for old men whose lives were wel-nigh
SPENT and whose destinies had been fixed, or for
| dying men, but not for young men who had
their characters to establish and their fortunes
to make.
In the above we have not, as is apparent, at
tempted to report the sermon, but merely to
mention the points which were elaborated We
give them wholly from an imperfect memory
having taken no notes--and are aware that in SO
doing we fall far short of doing justice to the
minister or his sermon.
