incurable by physicians of acknowledged ability.
Schenck's lulmonic Syrup alone has cured many, rs

A QUESTION OF IDENTITY.-The Orkney
Herald gives an amusing account of an incident
which occurred in the parish church of Birsay
some time ago. During the singing of the first
psalm goose entered the church, ADD quietly
"waddled" up the passage towards the pulpit.
just as the percentor bad got out of the tune
and almost come 10 standstill-s not very un-
usual occurrence. The minister, observing the
goose, leaned over the side of the pulpit, and ad.
dressing the church officer, said:
"R-, put out the goose.
That fuuctionary, not observing the presence
of the feathered parisboner, and supposing
that the minister's direction had reference to
the precentor, marched up to that individual,
and, to the no small amusement of the meagre
congregation, coarad him, saying at the same
time:

THE ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE AND
VIRGINIA ADVERTISER has already en-
tered upon the last quarter Of a century OF
its existence. Few newspapers in the coun-
try are its seniors. During all this period
its prominent object has been to advance
the interests of the people of whose life it
is the daily chronicle. Its fortunes have been
their fortunes; it has shared their prosper
ity and suffered in their disasters. Its in
spirstion has been the desire to forward the
best interests of the community in which 1t ID
located, and its own prosperity is, as it has been
purposely made, inseparable from that OF the
community that it aims to represent when
they grow rich it hopes for reward common
surste with its labors. While they are poor, it
expects to work with them and for them, ex-
pecting to make their success the measure of its
own.
The past of the Gazette is offered as an index
of it's future. 1t has never failed to avail Itself
promptly of all the improvements which come
with the greater growth and more extended
experience of journalism.
The Gazette means to be the newspaper Of
Virginia.
It will furnish daily complete account, with
superfuities only Topped away, of all the current
news of the world.
AS the interests of the people mainly centre at
home no pains will be spared to chronicle all
matters occurring in the city and neghborhood,
carefully excluding unseemly expressions or
gross narrative as unfit for journal that is
treasured at many thousand hearthstones of
Virginia.
Especial attention will be devoted to present.
ing, IS we'll from original sources of information
as from its exchanges, the news of Virginia.
It's contiguity to Washington gives the Ga
zette an early precedence over all the journals
of the State in intelligence of the operations of
the General Government, now of such vital i'm
portance to the people of the South. The pro-
ceedings of Congress will be regularly reported
in succinct form for its columns, but all matters
of especial interest in Virginia will be given in
detail.
From the State Capital it will receive early
and accurate accounts of the proceedings of the
General Assembly and of all the operations Of
the State government likely to interest the
people
In its commercial columns the especial feature
will be promptness and accuracy. The farmers,
drovers and commercial people of the State
know they may depend upon the Gazette.
Early and reliable reports of the Grain, Cattle,
Grocery and other Markets will be furnished,
and the prices and position of the stocks, which
are the subjects of business transactions in this
section of the country, carefully quoted.
The continual favors of those who have once
used the Gazette as an advertising medium is
warrant for saying that it pays to advertise in
its columns.

result showed her to be unfamiliar with
the subtle cruelty of her fairer-skinned
but not w~hite-hearted Christian sisters.
Several Irish women of the locality, to
whom the smell Of the. burning integu-
ments was offensive and the heather rite.
sacrilegious, gathered round, bowling
like a lot of ancient bacchanals, and,
ssizing hold Of the poor bereaved, seated
her on the blazing pyre, with the'evident
intention of having a regular Hindoo
suttee. The widow had no such extreme
theories of wife sacrifice. Her clothes
began to burn, and she rent the air with
a piercing wall of suffering. Her tor
mei tors persevered in their efforts to
make a bonfire Of her, and would, per-
haps, have accomplished this purpose, il
some humane male Barbary coasters had
not rushed in, tore her from their grasp,
aud permitted her TO escape.
