Below we give comparative statement of the
inspections of tobacco for the two lastyears, tor
which We are indebted to Msssrs JOHN JONES d
Co., of this city The aggregate for this year Is
very large and the Inspections 10 this city much
larger than that Of any previous year. The year
inspection In this State ia larger than that of any
previous year, except 1910, when 1t amounted to
So 034 bogsheads; the year 1885, however, exhibit
ed the smallest Inspection of very many years past
1t only amounting to % ,757 hogsheads. 1t Is pro-
bable from this limited inspection that part Of
the crop was held back and thrown into the year
le4O and that the inspections of that year were
thus sweled to an aggregate greater than that o.
the presen, year. In ,his view 1t is very probable
that the crop Of 1854 VII ch comes into this year
inspections was the largest ever produced in the
| State.
The amount of the inspections does not represent
the CROP as large portion OF 1t never undergoes
| Inspection, It being worked into manufactured to-
bacco before it is inspected. Nearly the entire
crop OF Patrick and Henry, large tobacco 'raising
counties and large portion of that of Pittsyvanis,
i, manufactured before being inspected. More
over, there is no tobacco inspection In Danville,
where manufacturing of Tobacco IL extensively
ried on.
Estimating the tobacco that has been inspected
at the average value of tobacco for the present
year, we may set 1t down as yielding Sc 600 Co.,
But large portion of that inspected 10 manufac-
'ured, and this process about doubles the value OF
what Is thus manufactured. When we add to tbis
enhanced value ofihat portion of the crop the vas.
amount of tobacco that Is manufactured without
inspection, we have an immense addition to make
to the $1,000 600. From the best estimate of ex
perienced tobacconists, we would say, that with
these additions. the crop this year brought to mar.
kst will yield to the producers and the manufac
turers together, fully Sl1,OOO,0OO. This Is an i'm
mense amount to be yielded by only one staple
product which Is confined chiefly to the country
lying between the head of tide water and the Blue
RIDGE on the south side of James river tits proper
to add, however, that several counties 10 North
Carolina bordering on Virginia, produce tobacco,
and contribute literally to the inspections In this
State.

~Kossuth has written letter to the
New York Times, in which he expresses the
opinion that the fall of Sebastopol sis but an
insult that does not take away the strength
of Russia, and that, instead of terminating
the war, it will so infame the Russian pride
that the Gear, even were he so inclined, could
not live one week if he should dare to sue
for or accept any conditions of peace.
Kossuth also expresses the opinion that, for
the next winter and the next year, the cam
paign will probably be restricted to the Cri.
mea, but that the naval operations in the
Baltic will be resumed next year with aug.
mented forces, and on more effective scale
The great war, however, he thinks, may yet
be reduced to war by blockade, turn of
events which might have some bearing upon
American commerce.
