Some Experiments ON the Smoke OF To.

Some Experiments ON the smoke OIL IO-
baccO. "
In Frorleps Journal of recent date, an inter-
esting article has been published on the habit of
tobacco smoking, and on poisoning by nicotine.
Among the facts there mentioned arc experiments
Instituted by Mr.. Malapert, pharmacien, of Polo.
tiers His intention to ascertain the exact
quantity of nicotine absorbed by smokers, in pro-
portion to the weight of tobacco consumed. The
apparatus uaed consisted of stone Jar, in which
the tobacco was made to burn, connected with a
series of bottles communicating by tubes The
bottles were either empty contained some water,
mixed or not with little snlphuric acid. From
few experiments il was found that, In the smoke
of tobacco extracted by inspiration, there is ten
per cent nicotine Thus man who smokes q
cigar of the weight Of seventy grains, receives in
his mouth seven grains Of nicotine, mixed with .
little watery vapor, tar, empyreumatic oil, &c
Although large portion Of this nicotine is re-
acted, both by the smoke pulled from the mouth
and by the saliva, portion OF 1t is, nevertheless
tsken up by the vessels of the bucoal and laryn-
geal-mucous membrane, circulated with the blood,
and act upon the brain.
With those unaccustomcd to the use Of tobacco
the nicotine, when in contact with the latter organ
produces vertigo, nausea, headache and somno-
lence, while habitual smokers are merely thrown
into state of excitement similar to that produced
by moderate quaint es Of wine or tea. From further
inyese alton it was found that the drier the tobac
co the less nicotine reaches the mouth. "A very
dry cigar, while burning yields very small amount
of watery rapor; the smoke cools rapidly and al
lows the condensation Of the nicotine before II
reaches the mouth. Hence it comes that the first
half of cgnr smokes more mildly than the Sec
old in which d certain amount Of condensed wa
terry vapor and nicotine, freed by the first half are
deposited The same remark implies to smoking
tobacco in pipes, and if smokers were prudent
they would never consume but half cigar or pipe
and throw away the other Smoking through wa
ter, or with long tubes and small bowls is also a
prccaution whichshould not be neglected.

Mile Maria Susanna, white lady, in her -39th
year. and creole, has instituted a suit in the
Fourth District Court claiming heavy damages oil
one Matthew Rcheto, tor depriving her or her pro-
Der position in society, by industrousy circuiatlng
reports that she is OF colored extraction. lt ap-
pears that the lady, until she arrived at her ma
iority. believed she actually was of African ex-
traction inasmuch as she had been reared and
treated with all possible tenderness by Martha Den
Andre a mulatto woman, now 75 years OF age,
and who resides at the corner of Orleans and
Bourbon Streets and who pretended to be her
mother; belief which prevailed in the neigh
borhood from the fact that Martha took her to
nurse shortly after losing an actual child OF her
own. 4s gs. R{
When Mile Maria became of age, then Martha
told her how, in the year 1878, she had been
brought to her a newly-born infant, by a certain
Nine Picot with a request that she would nurse
and rear her with all possible tenderness for which
she would receive a monthly stipend, and q par
ticular Injunction was made to keep secret the fact
that she was the illicit offspring of young Lady OF
high family, who had " loved not wisely, bat too
we'll" Shortly afterward, the mother, beautiful
lady of twenty, called at the house, and after OBJ
tanning the most solemn promises OF secrecy, d.
vulged her name and the unhappy circumstances
connected with the birth Of her child. Martha,
the NURSE was then living with white man named
Gibbs consequently, Maria grew up in the belief
that Gibbs was her father, and that Gibbs was her
name On reaching her majority, however, and
being let into the secret of her history, she dis
earded that name, and assumed the status of a
free white person. Since then she has been him
