foreign nations with whom We DEAL is matter OF
some curiosity The London Morning Chronicle
saws that tobacco Is one OF the necessdries Of life In
England--it is no longer mere luxury, but enters
into consumption among the masses, who are taxed
severely for it, Great Britain levies a duty Of
ca 500 900, or three shillings sterling per pound,
on tobacco, making tax Of nearly seventy Ave
cents on each man, woman, and child, In that
kingdom.
Twenty-eight millions of pounds are annually
consumed in Great Britain. Formanufactured to-
bacco, we find that Canada Is our best customer,
England the next, British American colonies the
third, Australia the fourth.
