Where ? AT The Washington Gazette re cently made a most wonderful historical discovery. That said discovery was that Washington. both in being and in name, long antedated the birth and career of the Father of his Country alter, or lor, wnom i; was named. As the discovery was obtained from a city of the dead, we conjecture that some recent spring like day lured our brother into donning that im mortal robe of flannel white, and into making a naturnal visit among the tombs, lighted onlv vj by a lover's moon, where he Held sweet converse with de parted or familiar, spirits, who whispered in his ear a tale of fancv. Be it as it may, it will not do to base history upon iuscrip tions on tombs. The iact, that . such inscriptions bear ancient dates, is not proof of the facts of that day. Epitaphs are made to order and transforms the sinner into saint on marble. But history goes on forever. The beginning of Washing ton was in 1770. It was a piece of land laid off in lots and known as "The Forks of Tar river." In 1782, it had several houses and was established as a rown by the Legislature which met at Hillsboro, by the name of Washington. The following from the records of that session explains itself: "VI Year of Independence. 13th of April 17S2 First Session. "buap. AAA II.
