SAFE AND SoUND.-The many friends
of Mr.. George Aud, of Fairfax, were
much concerned this morning when 1t
was reported that he was uneccount-
ably missing from his home, about four
miles from this city. Mr.. Aud last
night attended political meeting at
Liucoluis, at which he presided and in
PRODUCED the speakers, Messrs. Moore,
Moucure and Willard. After the meet
ing he lighted his lantern and started
home but as he did not reach there his
friends became alarmed and thought
some misfortune had overtaken him.
1t appears, however, that while on the
road Mr.. Aud was overtaken by q
friend living in another direction, who
insisted on his going home with him
and spending the night. This Mr.: Aud
did and was greatly surprised on learn.
ing that his short absence from home
had caused so much concern.

ALEXANDRIA WINs.-The delegation
OF Ale1andrians appointed few days
since by Mr.. NJ. B. Harlow, president
of the Business Mems League, to wait on
Commissioner of Internal Revenue For
man and urge him to grant the quest of
Collector Agnew to be allowed TO re-
move his Office from Lynchburg to this
city, this morning waited upon Com
missioner Forum at the Treasury De-
partment in Washington and were sue.
cessful in their mission. Congressman
Otey, of the Lynchburg district, was
present and asked a postponament of
the consideration of the matter of the
removal of the Office till after the cleo.
ton, when he said Senator Daniel could
be present and oppose the removal.
Mr.. Forman said it was not the rule of
the department to have such matters
discussed orally, but as Mr.. O.ey
had made such request he would
hear both sides. Congressman Rixey
who headed the Alexandria dele
cation, Mr.. Harlow and others op.
posed postponement and asked that
the matter be determined at that time.
Mr.. Otey then presented map show
ing the location of the various distil-
leries, &c., in the district and insisted
that Lynchburg was the most convent
ent point for the location of the revenue
Office. Mr.. Rixey and the Alexandrians
then made statements which Offset what
Mr. Otey had said, showing thatAlexan.
dria was as conveniently located as
Lynchburg for the collectors Office;
that the largest breweries and disti-
eries were located in this section of
the State, and that large number of
smaller brandy distilleries, &c, were
also located all through this section.
After listening to the arguments pre-
sented by both sides Commissioner For.
man said he would grant Mr.. Agnew's
request for the removal of his Office 10
this city and this will be done Monday
morning next. The Office will be
located in the Custom House building,
where it was several years ago and
the work of fitting up the offices there
will be commenced at once. The re.
moyal will bring about dozen clerks
to this city and probably several of
them will bring their families. The
news that the office vii be removed
back to Alexandria, where it properly
belongs, will be learned with pleasure
by every one in this city.

litical meetings, one by the democrats
and one by the republicans, but the
latter expect to hold another on Mon

ments for the election on Tuesday
have all been made, but light vote is
expected.
