Alexandria Gazette

At a large and enthusiastic meeting of the Whigs of Alexandria, held at the Mechanics' Hall, on Monday the 11th instant, upon the occasion of the election of General WM. H. HARRISON, of Ohio, as President, and JOHN TYLER of Virginia, as Vice President of the United States, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted, amidst the most hearty and enthusiastic cheering:

THE WHIGS OF ALEXANDRIA having with unspeakable joy and satisfaction heard of the glorious result of the Presidential election, by which General WM. H. Harrison has been elected President and John Tyler Vice President of the United States, and having borne an active part in the great struggle, which has ended in the triumph of the People, and in the utter prostration of doctrines diametrically opposed to the best interests of our Country, and feeling themselves entitled to a day of JUBILEE upon the occasion, do, therefore, in general meeting, unanimously resolve,

1st. That Wednesday, the 25th day of this month, be set apart in Alexandria, as a DAY OF GENERAL REJOICING.

2d. That on the night of that day the citizens of this Town be invited to ILLUMINATE their houses.

3d. That the different trades, occupations, and professions be requested to form a PROCESSION with appropriate emblems, on the 25th inst.

4th. That G. W. Curtis, Esq., be invited to deliver an address on the occasion, and that other friends of the cause, also, be requested to address the people.

5th. That the people of Washington and Georgetown, and the surrounding Counties in Virginia and Maryland, and all others, are invited to visit our town, and partake of our hospitality.

6th. That in the procession, the Sovereign States of the Union, and the Territories and District of Columbia, be appropriately represented and duly honored.

7th. That Committees be appointed to superintend and prepare the arrangements for the Jubilee, and that separate Committees be appointed for each separate object, and that these Committees, when united, shall form a General Committee.

8th. That the Whigs of Alexandria will, each and all, on that occasion, have WELCOME on their doors, and "the latch string outside," and that they will spend the day in the most free interchange of congratulations, and that they expect their friends from every city, town, county, and State in the Country, who may honor them with their presence, to be AT HOME.
