SPANISH CIaARs.-The correspondent of the
NewOr|eans Delta gives some interesting III
formation in relation to cigars, the main part
of which is rs follows ]:
The number of cigars stated in the Belanza
to have been exported from the whole island in
1854 is 25l $4,000, which are valued at
$l,l4o,573 81 u.
/ have q pretty intimate personal knowledge
of the cigar trade, and substantially state my
belief that the lowest average value that
can be put upon the cigars exported
from this city is $l5 per NJ, while the price
current for 1854 IA very reliable authority
places the number Of cigars exported from this
city alone in the year at nearly 264,O0O,0 900,
and l believe the same rule would apply to
almost every article exported Then there are
millions of cigars of which no entry is made at
the Custom House, to avoid the Is cents per
thousand, export duty.
1t will scarcely answer for me to let the
public into ul the little secrets of our trade in
cigars, but l positively affirm that one tenth
of the things sold in the United States, as
Havana cigar, have been manufactured in this

ANnRE >: AI.EN.-The Boston Ledger
relates the following amusing anecdote of the
late Andrew J. Allen, the celebrated costumer
and actor:
In a piece called THE Battle of the Lakes.n
or some such name, Allen was once performing
q prominent part, and in q scene in which the
American and British fleet were represented in
hostile action. The finale of the naval strug.

The CosT OF THE WAR IN BLoop AND
IREAsuRE.-Since the commencement of the
Eastern war England has lost 1854 gallant
men by death in action, wounds and disease /:
and 1878 have besides been discharged from
the services on account of the two latter causes.
Or the gallant soldiers sent out 1898 fell brave
" in action; about 1921 sunk under their
wounds; 1919 died of cholera, and ll,45l of
other diseases. England has lost in all 22,457,
The losses Of the French, so far as they have
been ascertained, amount to 10000. Count
Orlott has admitted in Paris that the Russian
loss has not been less than 100000. The loss
sustained by the Sardinians has not been, and
the loss sustained by the Turks never will be
ascertained.
The London Times says GAIL things con-
sldered, We doubt whether the cost of the war
from first to last, will be much under elOO.
ooo,O0o-an immense sum, but evidently not
an intolerable one, when it is considered thai
1t falls very much under the expenditure 81

1t appears that the expenses of the war to
France amount to upwards of 1900 millions Of
francs ($24O, OOO, 900.

Evening News Of the oath says:
On the last trip of the Alvin Adams from
this city to Louisville, a cabin passenger named
Mcbride, a pilot, vas robbed Of $40. lie had
been drinking freely during the day, and VI )
under the influence of liquor, a fellow passenger
pretended great friendship for him, and took

Mcbride found himself minus $40. lie at
once suspected his Friend" and search WAC
made for him Gu the boat, and he was finally
found by one of the cabin boys between his

precisely with that stolen from Mcbride, was
found in one Of his boots. At the first wot !

AS the gentleman had only incurred a debt
for one barrow, he was surprised to find him
self apparently debited in a bill for four, and
his puzzle was rather increased than diminished
on finding the total amount only equal to q
single item. Upon inquiry, however, it tGrned
out that the account was n kind of specimen
Of rustic photography which translated, meant
that the writer had made a wooden barrow
that wouldn't do, and q second which did do,
and which alone he had been charged for.
