PRUSSIA.

The semi-official North German Gazette of this
evening, referring to Prince von Hohenlohe's de-
claration in the Bavarian Chamber of Deputies, on
the 19th inst., says :

" The division of Germany by the line of the
Maine, alleged by Prince von liohenlohe to be re-
cognised by Prussia, is a pure fiction.

"If the South German States are willing to
voluntarily renounce a portion of their sovereignty
in favour of a closer union with North Germany,
Article 4 of the Treaty of Prague does not prevent
them from so doing."

CIGAR-MAKING IN —AVA--The re may .be
small manufacturers of Havana who own but two
or threo slaves, or employ but two or throe work-women,
and they may do their work in a brutish and uncleanly
manner; but so far as my own experience at the Hija de
Cabanas y Carvajal's renders me a trustworthy witness, I
may vouch for the scrupulous cleanliness and delicacy with
which every single stage in the process of cigar-making is
conducted. I have seen barley-sugar made, and I have
seen broad made, and I certainly consider the manufacture
of cigars to be a nicer transaction than either bread or
sweet-stuff making. Nothing can be orderly, more sym-
metrical, than the appearance of the cutting and shaping-
room. The operators sit to their work, and make the
cigars with tkeir fingers, but do not roll them into the
shape by attrition on their sartorius muscles as is popu-
larly supposed. Every operator has his counter or desk,
his sharp cuttLog tools, and a pot of gum for fastening the
tips, with his stock of assorted tobacco-leaf in baskets by
his side. It is a competitive vocation. The best work-
men are the best off. Payment is by results. Many of
the hands pmployed are negro slaves, or were so when I
was in Havana three years ago ; but the finer cigars, the
prime Cabanas, the Napoleones, the Espaniales and Reg-a-
lias, aro made exclusively by white Creole Spaniards, who
are paid according to the number they can turn out a day,
and many of whom realise very handsome wages. Good
cigars are very dear in Havana.—Dicken44 "All

THE LATE JULES GERARD, THE LION KILLER.
—Some particulars have at last come to hand,
tardily enough, of the death, two years ago, of Jules
Gerard, the Lion-killer. Thos© particulars have been ob-
tained by the French Consular agent at Sierra Leone, who
communicated them to his Government. According to in-
formation
luisidheesd
ainactihreroSthecutboorrso. Shuboro, aHuidshbya.Al-gbeenallithomed,
. given by M. Huchard, Ffench merchant esta-
interpreter, the hardy explorer fell a victim to the cupidity
Gerard's
and ferocity of the negroes whom ho had engaged as his
at first pillaged repeatedly diiri'u, his jouniroo;ifsrio7ns Sera-
boowere to Mania by the chief of the' conner village. Being
thus deprived of all that was absolutely necessary for him
to continue his route, Gerard sent back his interpreter to
Sierra Leone fur a fresh supply. Tho latter, on his way
back to rejoin his master, learnt at the village of Nio-
Japan, that he had been drowned by the Kosos, who had
conducted him from Woola, to Makalay, and that his body
was found:in the river Jong, which flows on the territory
of Shuboro. According to Ali's account the body when
found was quite naked—the arms tied behind his back, and
a piece of wood with a largo stone attached was fastouod to
his waist. Ali tried to recover his instruments, but could
nut do so. The provisions he had wore takan from him by
the negroes, and he himself was beaten, bound, and kept as
a slave. Gerard had formed the project of traversing
Africa from Sierra Leone to Algiers, passing through Tim-
buctoo.

CIGAR-MAKING IN HAVANA.--There may be
small manufacturers of Havana who own but two
or three slaves, or employ but two or three work-women,
and they may do their work in a brutish and uncleanly
manner; but so far as my own experience at the Hija de
Cabanas y Carvajal's renders me a trustworthy witness, I
may vouch for the scrupulous cleanliness and delicacy with
which every single stage in the process of cigar-making is
conducted. I have seen barley-sugar made, and I have
seen bread made, and I certainly consider the manufacture
of cigars to be a nicer transaction than either bread or
sweet-stuff making. Nothing can be orderly, more sym-
metrical, than the appearance of the cutting and shaping-
room. The operators sit to their work, and make the
cigars with tkoir fingers, but do not roll them into the
shape by attrition on their sartorius muscles as is popu-
larly supposed. Every operator has his counter or desk,
his sharp cuttlzg tools, and a pot of gum for fastening the
tips, with h:s stock of assorted tobacco-leaf in baskets by
his side. It is a competitive vocation. The best work-
men a:e the best off. Payment is by results. Many of
the hands employed aro negro slaves, or were so when I
was in Havana three years ago ; but the finer cigars, the
prime Cabanas, the Napoloones, the Espaniales and Itega-
lies, ar3 made exclusively by white Creole Spaniards, who
are paid according to the number they can turn out a day,
and many of whom realise very handsome wages. -Good
cigars are very dear iu Ilayana.—Dickens's "Ali the Year
Round.

BERLIN, Jan. 23.

The semi-official North German Gazette of this
evening, referring to Prince von Hohenlohe's de-
claration in the Bavarian Chamber of Deputies, on
the 19th inst., says :
" The division of Germany by the line of the
Maine, alleged by Prince von Hohenlohe to be re-
cognised by Prussia, is a pure fiction.
"If the South German States are willing to
voluntarily renounce a portion of their sovereignty
in favour of a closer union with North Germany,
Article 4 of the Treaty of Prague does not prevent
them from so doing."
