referring to the monument, he said
"They will not consent to let us have

Correspondence, Daily Market Re.
ports, Local News and matters of
interest to Virginia, but more es.
pecially to this city and section of
the State.
The GAZETTE is now the Oldest
paper in the State, and with few
exceptions the Oldest in the coun-
try, and its usefulness has been de.
monstrated and appreciated during
the NINETY-oNE YEARS Of its exist
ence. In its columns has always
been found a mirror Of passing
events and the CAREFUL chronicling
of the history CT what ia going on
in the world has ever been its aim.
1t is always welcomed in the house
hold, while in the counting room
and work shop it has become III
valuable.
The GAZETTE, situated as it is SO
close to Washington, the great Gen.
tire of news, enjoys daily the bene-
fit Of the ASSOCIATED PRESS DIS.
PATCHES from every part Of the
world hence its patrons can read
from its columns in the evening
what has TRANSFERRED that day in ey.
cry portion Of the United States as
we'll as from every part of the hab,
table globe. Consequently it is
an everyday occurrence for the
GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals about
twelve or fifteen hours earlier than
the morning papers.
Correspondence from Washing
ton, Richmond and every sactlon Of
the State is published regularly,
and all events of interest occurring
within the bounds of the Common
wealth are to be found in the COL
umns of the GAZETTE.
The local department furnishes o
full and complete history of every
thing that occurs in and near the
city, and this feature wall, as ever,
receive careful attention.
Another feature that serves to
make the GAZETTE great desider-
alum with merchants is its after
noon market reports from all the
great centres of the country.
The GAzETTE's circulation in this
city is now larger than at any time
in its history and is steadily increas-
ing, especially among those who
consult its advertising columns be-
fore purchasing.
The COUNTRY EDITION is
nearly ss large as that of the daily.
This edition is sent out three times
a week.
The advantages of advertising
in this paper are apparent.

4 phalanx in the military affairs of
Greece was a square battalion or body
Of soldiers formed in ranks and files
compact and deep with their shields
joined and pixies crossing each other SO
as to render it almost impossible to
break it, At first the phalanx consisted
Of I 1000 men, but this number was after
ward doubled by Philip Of Macedon.
and the double phalanx is hence often
called the Macedonian phalanx. Poly
bius describes it thus:
1T was square Of pikemen, consist
ing Of sixteen in flank and 800 in front
The soldiers stood SO close together that
the pixies Of the fifth rank extended
three feet beyond the front The rest,
whose pixies We're not serviceable owing
to their distance from the front, couchetl
them upon the shoulders Of those who
stood before them, and so locking them
together Ill file pressed forward to sup
port and push on the former rank, by
which means the assault was rendered
more violent and irresistible" The
spears Of those behind also stopped the
missiles Of the enemy. Each mans pike
was twenty-three feet long The word
phalanx is also used for any combina.
ton of people distinguished for solidity
and firmness. A grand phalanx consist
ed of 1884 men.-Brooklyn Eagle.

A Machine for Sitting Ashes.

A machine has been invented which
senar;.tes ashes from boiler fires into
three portions Unburned fuel. called
breeze or cinders, which can be mixed
with coal and burned over again. or for
blacksmiths' fires, being the finest ma
terial procurable; fine dust, useful for
builders in place Of sand; clinkers, use
full for roadlnaking. paths, etc.
The machine consists Of Il tank OF COM
partlnent kept full of water. The ashes
or breeze TO be cleansed rest on a graf
ing, which is covered by fine perforated
copper plate. a free passage of water
is allowed, and at the same time the
breeze or fuel is prevented from falling.
The separation is effected by an agi-
tator worked by crank shaft. At each
downward plunge of the agitator the
water is forced upward through the per-
forated copper bottom, causing the ma
terial to rise. The rubbish, owing to it's
greater specific gravity, is precipitated
to the bottom on the return stroke; at
the same time the breeze, or unburned
fuel, being lighter, works to the surface.
AL eacn SIrOke OIL the crank DOOy or
water and quantity of clean breeze is
carried to plate, which is also per-
forated, so as to allow the water to fall
into the machine and thence through q
valve to be used over again, and the
clean breeze is swept by revolving
brush over a ledge. The clinker &C
cumulates on the perforated copper
plate, and from time to time is allowed
to escape by valve in the body of the
machine, whence it is raised by an ele-
vator and discharged Pittsburg Dis

Odd Stamps with High Values.

Many stamps attain fictitious value
on account of some accident in their
printing or publication. The story is
told that on one occasion a number of
stamps were sent into Wales without the
customary perforation. They were of
the penny brick variety, common enough
in all conscience, but it is said because the
$40 of them which composed the priced
pounds worth were the only specimens
ever sent out in such manner they are
now worth two pounds each, and the
same queer enthusiasm exists in France,
where the stamps used in connection
with the balloon post of the great war
Of 1870 are considered worth their weight
in gold.-Million.

Dogs That Battle Regularly.

It is only the petted and pampered ca
mines who have such dread of the surf.
The democratic ours Of the town and the
sensible old house dogs who have lived
here long enough to feel thoroughly at
home and who feel equal to the task of
looking out for themselves under any
and all circumstances are of an en-
tirely different frame of mind, so far as
that is concerned. Plenty of them go in
for their daily swim as regularly and as
unconcernedly as the most enthusiastic
and inveterate bathers the town con-
tains, and plenty more wait only for the
barest invitation to go plunging in after
a stick or ball, to bring it out on the
strand, triumphant at the victory over
the watery element. - Philadelphia

What the Death Mask Shows.

The value of a plaster cast as por-
trait of the dead or living face cannot
for moment be ques, Toned. 1t must
of necessity be absolutely true to nature.
It cannot flatter; it cannot caricature.
It shows the subject as he was or is,
not only as others saw him i'll the actual
flesh, but as he saw himself. And ii
the case of the death mask particularly
it shows the subject often as he permit

He does not pose; he does not "try to
look pleasant" In his mask he is seen,
