Oh, That I Knew!
by ben bloomeb.
' Oh, that I knew" the false from true,
In phyr-ics and in morals ?
Could demon tr?te, beyond debate,
Where truth divinely corrals!
Oh, coald I soiz; the theories
That so perplex the many :
From these extract- substantial fact
To fix the faith of any !
I'd take the field and constant wield
The tor true and pen and muscle.
To lead the race a righteou? chase,
And make Old Error huttle.'
But ah. alas! "all flesh i3 grass,"
With limit:d decision :
We canuot judge 'twixt feet and "fudge "
Beyond a tense provision.
Where'er we roam, all tilings that come
Within the range of sentC3;
We see and know tuch things are so? -
Confronting evidences.
But oh, beyond !?the spirit monde?
Beyond the mystic river?
Nought meets the gaze, all spectral bsz?,
And mystery forever!
To Beat the Eiffel Tower ? Charier

The Gazette, chronologically,
is in the ninetieth year of its ex?
istence, and is not only the oldest
paper in ihe State, but, with fev
exceptions, in the country.
Notwithstanding the fulness o!
its years, it has kept, and will con
j tinue to keep, abreast of the timep
tali that pertains to a news paper,
i furnishing its readers dailv with a
perfect mirror of passing evei -
domestic and foreign,
j Its facilities for obtaining newa
j as they increase are taken advai.
tage of and used for the benefit ol
its readers, who are thus kepi
thoroughly posted as to all tiiat i.?.
of interest politically, socially, li
nancially or commercially.
Special attention is given to mat?
ters concerning the Slate and its
welfare, while its local columns
contain all that is of the slightest
interest to Alexandrians.
Its regular correspondence froin
Washington and Richmond are fea?
tures of peculiar interest, as attest?
ed by the eagerness with which
they are read and copied by othei
papers, while its editorial depart?
ment, conducted with reference to
the best interests of the city, State
and country, will continue to ad?
vocate what is believed to be right,
just, honest and patriotic.
With a view to the interest of
merchants, farmers and all inter?
ested, its commercial columns are
carefully edited and its market re?
ports are acknowledged by all to
be faithful and accurate.
Through all this section of the
State, and in all parts of the coun?
try where Virginians have located,
there will the Gazette generally
be fouud, and thus as an advertis?
ing medium it has few equals out?
side the large cities.
In the household, counting room
and workshop it is an ever-welcome
visitor, acceptable alike to old and
young, the grave and the gay.
