sNUFF-DIPPINGIN NEW YORK

C -
A New York journal thus speaks of
the ladies who are cup to snuff" in
Gotham
A graphic account was published by
one of our contemporaries, few years
aho, of the disgusting practice of snuff
dipping" SO extensively in vogue among
women Of all classes in the Southern
States. People from the North, travel
ing through Virginia, the Carolinas.
Georgia and Alabama, have been as
tonished at beholding the open and
matter-offact method of indulging in
it-at seeing pretty young gills, lovely
ladies, married women and single, sitting
IN circles formed expressly for this pur-
pose. Each suuf-dipper has her bot
tie and swab stick, or box and mop,
from and by which she conveys the
filthy dust.to her lips, and then, with
drawing the mop, perhaps passes it
along to her neighbor as an act of deli
cate attention. Without doubt, this
habit of snuf-dipping would be far
more unseemly than that Of tobacco
chewing, if practiced by men, and
when tits considered that women only
have adopted it, one can hardly represa
a shudder of disgust.
Many ofour readers WILDE surprised
to learn that great mistake is made
! in supposiug that this foul and pernic
ious habit is confined tothe females 0
the South. We have to record tht
| fact, based upon careful investigation
that it is more or less secretely in prae
tice among the womenof our own city
and to quite considerable extent. Th
article used for this purpose is the old
fashioned yellow Scotch snuff, of whic
four times as much is consumed in thi
: way by the women of New York as fc
the Utilization of the olfactory organ B
f al the snuf-takers Of both sexes. CeI
! tain tobacconists on Broadway and tI
