TOBACCO.

The habit Of using this poisonous, filthy
and expensive weed, prevails so universal
ly among the young men of the present, |
cannot allow the subject to pass this occa-
sion without remark. 1t is a prominent
negative habit of success, both as to health
and economy. this morning met a
young man, tarrying few moments at
the entrance below, to take few more de-
licious pufs at cigar before breaking its
eTceJJeat companionship to enter the study
room. Says l, friend, 10 cents gone. Is
says he, Indignantly. Think I'd smoke
10 cent cigar? But that's nothing, l
only smoke two per day. Let us consider
this "0nJy tooo cigars per day." as an item
OF economy. In one year it amounts to
the snug little sum of S109.5O. This
little amount saved annually and put at
compound interest at the rate of or per
cent, would in fifty years amount to the
respectable sum Of S20,575. Add to
this the expense Of chewing, tipping, and
the more eXtravagant cigar smoking which
consumes five or ten per day, and you
have an item that would look very we'll on
the debit side of your cash book. Espe-
clally to you, young man who have smoked
chewed or drank yourselves short when
the board bills come around. All that
saved by cutting off from few unnatural
and injurious habits thus you have more
money, better health, and longer life
Who will not try it.

C GAMBLING

Is another name for stealing, only the
meanest of the two, because under the
guise of gambling man really steals, and
in the eyes of many is respectable he es-
capes large share of popular odium that
inevitably attaches to the genuine thief
In gambling you are robbed, or rob your
competitors, without giving an equivalent;
when yeu steel you do no worse. Were
the games of the gambler confined to fell
low gamblers the practice might be less
odlous, but when we consider that it is
always the innocent, unsuspecting that are
victimized, robbed and ruined, this foster
mother of crime looms up before us fairly
reaking with the souls of young men ru-
med. Young man never stake the first
penny on games of chance, and beware of
those who do, for ultimately they lEill

1t is necessary to save. No salary is
so liberal or income so great, that it may
not be squandered. Whatever is your
income, live within ii. Remember that
duty to yourselves in old age, and those
who are dependant upon you for support,
demand that you should lay by a part of
the earning of manhood Disease or dis
ability may overtake you, when if econo-
my has put nothing aside, cold charity
must be appealed to for aid. At least
lay aside that which is paid for the cigar,
intoxicating drink and games of chance.
With many, this alone would give a COM
petence fog old age.

TEMPER ENCE.
Be temperate in all things.

de temperate III all lnlD8S.
Intemperance is the great malstrom up
on the broad field of fortune, engul6ng
innumerable yoyagers. The great and
small, wise, unwise, founder her alike
1t is the most dangerous of all ruinous
habits, from the fact that its victims are
never concious of their danger until they
are taken entirely captive, bound hand
and foot, and hurled to the bottomless pitt
of human woe and degradation.
Who Of you young men, who are in the
habit of taking glass of "ager," are
concious of even the remotest danger. So
all have thought who have filled the mill
ions of Drunkards graves, leaving more
of widows and orphans to mourn in dis
grace and want, their untimely end.
The young man tiplng, is like car
jdst starting down an inclined plain. Each
space over which it moves, accelerates the
motion, and increases the momentum, until
it moves with Lightning speed and restless
force to inevitable obstruction at the end.
Each glass moves the tipler on. The ap-
petite is strengthened, and powers of re-
sistance weakened by every indulgence.
With a craving appetite strengthened and
resistance weakened, he is as powerless to
arrest his accelerating speed down to COM
plete drunkenness, as the car is its course
down the inclined plain. You who are
INDUCING in this fearful habit, take this
warning before it is too late. If YOU do
not, bid adieu to all those bright hopes of
success, and substitute the curse of a
drunkard. Resolve now, that henceforth
you will taste not, touch not, that foul
curse Of humanity,

mistake. No doubt il often increases i'm
mediate profit. The shrude horse jockey
by falsehoods and misrepresentation, re-
Allies $40 more from a bargain than he
would if the truth had been told but the
truth is soon known, when he is branded
as dishonest man and Stunned by him
be has once sharped. Hence his chances
for fair bargain in the future are de-
stroyed,
SO the gentee and fippant clerk by his
misrepresentation receives a sixpence a.
bove fair price, which is soon discovered
by the customer, when he trades else
where. Thus he really sells customer
with years of profitable trade, for six
pence, cash down. And | believe this to
be fair representation Of unfair deal a
sixpence now, for hundred dollar pro-
speCtive.
The honor of any position gained by
fraud, is poisoned by sense of shame,
added to fear of exposure, until exposed
when ruin follows.
The true happy and prosperous thief,
gambler or robber, would be as much OF
an anomoly in moral philosophy, as a
midnight at monday would be in natural
philosophy,
Honesty, under all circumstances is the
best policy, and every departure from it is
dangerous if not fatal to true success in
life.
INDUSTRY AND IDLENESS.
Under these heads, are presented the
greatest positive and negative elements of
success. Industry is the parent of good,
the shield of virtue, Idleness the mother
Ct crime-"the DEVILS workshop" The
one gives content, wealth and happiness
the other, discomfort, poverty and wretch
edness. Ifyou would be virtuous, re-
move temptation, by being Industrious
If you would have poverty in purse and
mind court idleness.

& A HEAVY SToRM.-About o'clock yes
terday evening, heavy storm of wind and
rain passed over the city, doing considera-
BILE damage to gardens and shubbery, as
well as tearing the shingles from roofs OF
houses, upsetting chimneys, and in one in
stance taking the roof entirely off. The
storm OF wind came from the Southwest
and for about three minutes blew fearful
hurricane. Striking the root of the new
Courtwright Block on Long street just
west of High. it rolled up the tin roof as il
it was paper. Before the force of the gale
was spent, the sheeting, ratters, cornice
and portion of the wall on the east side
were gone.
The storm made sad havoc in the City
Park, tearing down and uprooting many Of
the finest trees in the grove.
The store of D. T. Woodbury. 6 Co., No
246 South High street, had its roof lifted
up entire as high as Headley 6 Co.'s build
ing, next door. One who saw it tells us
that the roof was lifted up four or five
times during the storm, but was too heavy
to be taken off into the street. 1t was lett
in nearly its original place. a,
In the Eastern part of the city the shade
trees and chimneys suffered severely.
Thanks to the rain the people were driv-
en- under cover from the streets, and we
are gratified that we have no loss OF life
or broken limbs to make record of. 1t was
terrible storm, and it is source of gratu-
latIon that things are no worse.
Since the above was written we learn
that lady, living on High street near Gay
was somewhat injured about the head by
the plastering of her room being shaken
off by the storm. -rr .E

WONDER IF IRIS TRUE.-A distinguished
German professor recently announced that
if drop OF human blood was placed un-
der microscope capable of magnifying it
twenty million times larger, it would show
all the kinds of animals that ever have
existed, or now exist on the earth. In the
blood of healthy person the animals are
quiet; in that of a sick person they fight.
Fron this he draws the conclusion that
man has within him all the elements
from which the universe was created. He
further says that if dead cat was flung in
a pond of water and left to decompose, the
drops of water would show, when under
microscope, all the animals belonging to
the cat species.

A generalization of reports at head

registered in Louisiana there have been
only 7,428 whites against "a, 116 blacks.
From few sub-districts no reports have

The MAGUIRE JAPANESE TRoUPR.-A
splendid audience greeted the initial per-
formance of this great troupe of perform
ers, at the Opera House last night. There
seems to have been doubts in the minds of
our citizens as to these being the pure
quill, the original Jacobs, highly polished
Japanese. We think, after seeing them
last night, no one will doubt their nation
ality, or question the assertion that they
give the most wonderful performance ever
seen in Columbus. Talk of your Hanlons,
or Buisley Family, they can no more COM
pare to the Japs than dray mule to Dan
Rice's Excelsior. ~
Everything on the stage is conducted
precisely as in their own country. On the
stage are grouped a great display of arti-
cles made in Japan and used in the exhibit
tion, and the performance is explained as
it progresses, in the purest Japan. We
think it would be big thing for the Radi-
cal managers to hire the old fellow who
makes the chin music and hammers the
two sticks, to canvass the State for them.
He'd make such healthy talker. But bad
image aside, the balancing, the conjuring,
the wonderful performance of little GAIL
Right" must create such furore in town
as was never known before. 1t is more
than wonderful, it almost passes belief that
such things as were presented in the Opera
House last night, can be executed.
Tonight, Mr.. Wilder. informs US, feats
will be presented in comparison with
which last nights exhibition was mere
child's play. We advise every lover of the
wonderful to see these Japanese at least
once, while they remain with US. They
will be as thoroughly astounded as we
have been. L.
