what the Dickey Birds Say.

AhA thAS @>~S<ANt
The Presidents acceptation of that Western lnvi-
tation
Is the smartest thing that Growers done of late;
He has doubtless mad tip about the bearing OF
his trip
On the democratic vote this 's9.
Tho.e oft.repeated gags about Fairchild and the
flags
Had bad effect upon the Western jay;
So Cleveland thought it best to take trip out
West
At least, so the dickey birds say.
If Grover hadn't taken along his wife
He'd made the greatest error OF his life.
The President is clever in his way;
he can talk little bit,
But frankie makes the hit,
And that's what the dickey birds say.
If Comstock isn't stayed in his anti-nude crusade,
There is no knowing where his censorship WIZ
cease o--..d
By and by the law will screen US from each c&F'eu
or painted Venus,
And bald heads will be suppressed by the ponce
The gamin on the street cannot gsnlooi III Dare
And horses must wear listers made of hay,
While the men in public places
Must wear boards on their faces,
And thst's what the dickey birds say.
Well have to hide piano legs in boots,
And open up a tailor shop for brutes,
While natures laws will moulder and decay;
And children be suppressed
For being born undressed.
And that's what the dickey birds say

ORDERS WITHOUT THE CITY.
1883 ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE. 1888

The GAZETTE, chronologicaIIy, is in the
eighty-ninth year of its existence and is not
only the oldest paper in the State, but, with
very few exceptions, in the country. Not.
withstanding the fullness of its years, it has
kept, and will continue to keep abreast of the
times in all that pertains to neus paper
furnishing its readers daily with perfect
mirror of passing events, domestic and for
eign. Its facilities for obtaining news as
they increase are taken advantage of and
used for the benefit of its readers, who are
thus kept thoroughly posted as to all that is
of interest politically, socially, financially
and commercially. Special attention is
given to matters concerning the State and
its welfare, while its local columns contain
all that is o! the slightest interest to Alex
andria. Its regular correspondence from
Washington and Richmond are features Of
peculiar interest, as attested By the eager.
ness with which they are read and copied
by other papers, while its editorial depart
ment, conducted with reference to the best
interests of the city, State and country, will
continue to advocate what is believed to be
right, just. honest and patriotic. With
view to the interests of merchants, farm
ers, and all interested, it's commercial col
umns are carefully edited and it's market
reports are acknowledged by all TO be faith
fu and accurate. Through all this section
of the State and in all parts of the country
where Virginians have located, there will
the GAZETTE generally be found, and thus
as an advertising medium it has few equals
outside the large cities. In the household,
room and workshop, it is an eyer
welcome visitor, acceptable alike to old and
young, the grave and thegsy.

You may rail overland, you may sail
over sens,
In search of enjoyment, of comfort, of
health;
You may feel the sweet pleasures of
living at ease,
And know all the joys to be pur-
chased with wealth.
You may travel the east, you may go
through the west
And fare on the choicest in both
helnispheres;
But OF ul the worlds pleasures, you'll
taste not the hest,
Until you tuste Hyuschmun's, the
best OF all Beers.
You mny drink the rich wines of Opor-
to, or Spain,
The praised Usquebaugh, or Hiber-
uiu' & potheen;
The luscious Tokuy, the enchanting
champagne,
Or the famed Mountain Dew, as dis
titled for the Queen.
You may drink OF the vintage produced
on the Rhine;
AS bright as the sunshine, and mel
lowed by years,
But Sou'il know not the flavor of nectar
divine,
Unless you drink Hybschmun g
apotheosis of Beers.
Take tho rare old Madeira. the spark
ling Moselle,
Keptucky's sour-mash, Penusylva-
MAS Old RYeo;
Or those wondrous decoUtions, whose
typo few can tell,
The bitters, by cranks lauded up to
the skies.
You may try the whole list of the wines
of Old Game;
The Medoc, st. Julien, Burgundy
and Hook;
Take the drinks of the world, when
you've sampled them all,
You'll agree there's no ,qual for
Hybschmau GRAND "Bock."

Chinese exclusion than to make politi-
cal use of it.
Mr.. Buyard hos ably labored for a
settlement. His critics forget that there
are two parties to treaty, and they for
get that the effect of the treaty is recip-
rocal and is felt by Americans in China.
Suppose that Mr.. Bayard should make
q treaty denying to an American domi-
ciled in China and owning realty the
right to return to that countryl What
n yelp would rise from these politicians.
Yet they attack the treaty because it
guards against that very thing which
they would denounce. us. F. Alta.
