"Our Paper is the title of beautifully print
ed and admirably edited little paper, published
by the Sunday School Of the First Baptist
Church of this city, and printed at tho Gazette
Job office.
Last Tuesday was the one hundred and TWEEN
ty-ffth anniversary Of the establishment of the
town of Alexandria, the original board of ttus-
teees having organized and sold the first lots on
that Gay, IN the year l749.
Mrs Samuel Markell, Prince street, opposite
the Gazette office has among her fine array OF
flowers newly blown ''lilium aurstum, - a
very rare and beautiful specimen oil the species.
Daniel A. Grimsley, esq, State Senator from

has been the Senate for six years. and has

David Keppell, of Washington, who wss placed

The WITCHERY OF MANNER Almost every
man can recall scores of cases, within his
knowledge, where pleasing manners have made
the fortunes Of lawyers, doctors, divnes, mer
chants. and, 10 short, men in every walk OF
life. Raleigh flung down his laced coat into
the mud for Elizabeth to walk on, and got for
bis reward proud Queens favor. The poll
tician who has this advantage easily distances
all rival candidates, for every voter he speaks
with becomes his friend. The very tones in
which be asks for pinch of snuff are often
more potent that the logic of Webster or a
Clay. Polished manners have often made
scoundrels successful, while the best of men,
by their hardness ard GOODNESS, have doue
themselves iDcaIculable iujury-the shell being
SO round that the world could not believe there
was precious kernel within. Civility is
to man what beauty is to woman
1t creates an instantaneous impression in his
behalf, while the opposite quality excites as
quick prejudice against him. 1t is real
ornament, the most beautiful dress that man
Or woman can wear, and worth mere as a
means of winning favor than the finest clothes
and jewels ever worn. The grufest man loves
to be appreciated, and it is oftener the sweet
smile of woman, which we think intended
for US alone, than pair Of Juno like eyes or
lips that seen on roses fed," bewitches that
our heart and lays US low at the feet of her
whom We afterwards marry. Home Guardian.
