IS SMOKING INJURIOUS TO HEALTH ?—An interesting
discussion is now going on in the Lancet upon the
effects of smoking. The use of tobacco has during the
last half century greatly increased in England,
and
has now become an almost universal practice. This
question, in which the leading members of the medical
profession are taking part, must not only greatly in-
terest the public, but may very materially affect the
revenue of this country, when it is known that the
,
income derived from the consumption of tobacco was
last year upwards of 32,192 9431.,
the duty on which
was more than 5,220,0001. This return is independent
of cigars, which was about 150,0001. An able article
on the tobacco question appears in the Lancet of the
present week by Mr. Solly, F.R.S., of St. Thomas's
Hospital, which will be read with interest by all inve-
terate smokers.

The English, Scottish, and Australian Chartered
Tank have announced an intended dividend for the past
half-year at the rate of 5 per cent, per annum, free of
income tax, leaving 4,0151, to be carried to the reserved
fund,
