On last Tuesday the ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE
reached the S9th year OF its existence. Quite
venerable, to be sure for newspaper in State
that passed the trying ordcals the Old Dominion
did during the war. Barring few slight mper.

ZETTE is one of the best newspapers in Virginia.

Tho ALEXANDRA GAZETTE celebrated its SSth
! birthday on tho I'd instant. 1t does not suffer
from its advanced age, but remains vigorous and
brave as ever attacking the wrong in friend and
foe alike, encouraging the good, and being ever
the champion of liberty and right whether on
the popular or unpopular side We wish it many
happy returns of the day, which will, We trust,

On the 2i instant tho ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE
| entered upon its S9th year. For nearly century
tho GAZETTE has been known. esteemed and
quoted as one Of the leading newspapers of tho
State and to-day il shows vitality and enter
prise in keeping with the progressive spirit Of the
times. We cannot always endorse the GAZETTE
course and frequently wish it would pursue
different one, not Only for the good Of the party,
but because we hate to see so good paper on the
wrong side of any question. But this is free
country, and the GAZETTE has right 10 It's own
views which it never hesitates to express. wheth-
er they be popular or otherNis,. But apart from
this, the GAzETTE's many good qualities ontitle
1t to the continued support Of the public. Whist
would Alexandria be without the GAZETTE, and
what would the people Of Northern Virginia do
without the old familiar journal which has for so
many years been welcome visitor to their fro
sides? Tho Herald extends its congratulations,
and wishes its esteemed contemporary many more
such anniversaries with increased prosperity. -
