ALEXANDRIA.

THE COMING RUBY REJOICING.
The democratic city committee met last night
to prepare the red paint which will be used next
Tuesday night to give Alexandria the color OF
the rose Of York. The line Of torches
will be the largest that has ever ap-
peared on the Alexandria streets, and
as the line moves along the illuminated
streets the music Of several bands will send
sonorous airs to an atmosphere full of pyro-
techny. BOnfres will be alight at street cor
ners and a mass meeting, with orators in the
ardor OF fervtd rejoicing, will take place at the
opera house. After that will come the tug Of
war as to who shall have the offices at the post
Office, custom house, U. 8. court and internal
revenue here.
THE NEXT COUNCIL MEETING.
The city council meeting next Tuesday night,
If not postponed, viii be the first meeting which
has been held for q month, the last regular
meeting having been interm,tted because Its
date fell on the night when the votes Of the
presidential election were being counted. The
meeting, whenever held, will be one Of con-
siderable Importance, as 1t il probable
that some Of the plans for street and sewer i'm
provements will have their preliminaries pre-
sented, and other city matters Of interest will
also engage the attention of that body As the
democratic rejoicings take place on the same
night with the meeting Of the council the want
of quorum will probably occasion an adjourn
ment until next Wednesday.
