TOBACCO,

Few are aware what tobacco-loving
people we are getting to be in New Eng.
land. We not only smoke it, chew 1t, and
snuff it, but we grow the weed also. Ten
years ago Massachusetts, grew only ttife
over one hundred thousand pounds; now
she grows nearly four millions of pounds.
In 1850 Connecticut raised something ris.
Ing one million pounds, now she sends
six or seven million pounds into the mark
&c. In glanciug at the amount raised
throughout the whole country, one almost
begins to believe Secretary Seward spoke
the truth when, in reply to why the lux.
uries Of life should not be taxed, he re.
marked, tobacco is necessary, not o
luxury of life" For 1860 there were one
hundred and ninety mine Million seven
hundred and fifty two thousand six hun.
dred and fifty-ive pounds, worth twenty
cents pound, or thirty.nine million, two
hundred and ninety thousand, six hun
dred and thirty-one dollars; in 1860,
four hundred and twenty million, three
hundred and ninety thousand, seven hun
dred and seventy-one pounds, worth eighty
five million, eight hundred and seventy
eight thousand, three hundred and fifty
four dollars. In 1860 it cost this nation
as much for tobacco as it did to run tho
national government. These figures are
stupendous, but they are true. We are
a fast people in the tobacco line.-Green.

IMpREaNABILITY OF THE IRoN.cLALs.--
Says a correspondent Of the N. Y. Times {:
The country may accept this assurance
that the impregnability of our iron-clads
has been demonstrated in the preliminary
engagement before Charleston. They
were exposed for hours to the concentra-
ted fire at 500 yards distance, ofthe strong
est batteries that have ever been erected
for harbor defence, armed with the best
English Whitworth and Blakely guns.
They were not damaged to any serious
degree.
The failure of the Keokuk, a vessel of
entirely different construction from the
others, in no way invalidates this state
ment.

WAITING FOR THE MAILS.
j JBFFERsoNvILLE,
Apr. 20, 1868. (


Mr.. EDITOR "A word to you about
mails | went to the Post Office to-day, as
have been many days before, for the
sole purpose of getting the mail and
waited patiently and smpatiently, alter
nately, for several hours, for the aforemen-
toned commodity; but owing to the i'm
passible condition of the roads, neither
stage nor mail came; consequently, | had
nothing better to do than to turn my steps
homeward, feeling myself great many
times over victim, of what is politely
termed Fools Errand." l can imagine
nothing in the united category of PRO
vokable things so provoking, in these
times of war and much news" as a0ait-
ing. aoaiting (ccho fairly says waitimg
as write,) an indefinite length of time,
eager, with open mouth, for news from the
camp and the field and then being
obliged to turn away after hearing sever
all sorrowful hints from the p. NJ, that
in his sanguine opinion, "there will be no
stage to night" disappointed
There are several other little incon-
veniences attending these "mail-waitings."
A man, if he takes any interest at all in
the things that arc transpiring in the
world at large, very naturally wants his
mail and that too, when it becomes due.
So much by the way of argument. Well,
in such time as the present, for instance,
when stages and stagc-drivers alike, are
about as near regular as forty rows Of
apple trees, a man takes an early start
in the morning, especially if he live far
from the seat Of news. all athirst for his
mail; which may have came, after all,
the night before, Notwithstanding the
long list of doubts and fears expressed by
the famous aforesaid P. NJ, to the contra.
ry. But right or not right in his conjec.
turs, like Micawber, he concludes to wait
until night to see if something Won't
" turn up" in the shape Of news. Well,
he does this, seeing himself as others sec
him, probably, spending long day ap.
parently doing nothing but waiting. II
is, however, no easy matter to impres.
upon tho minds of people in general, the
fact that you are really waiting for any
thing in particular, or that you are other.
