Death from Smoking.

The New York correspondent Of the

case in my own intimate acquaintance has
this very week appalled, large circle OF
friends in this city. The victim was eX.
aCily Of my own years, and companion
from carly boyhoOd. For thirty years at
least he has been daily smoker OF the
choicest cigars, but in all his other habits
temperate and regular, and Of an excel
lent Consltution-one who OF 6ll mon
would have laughed at the suggestion
that tobacco was injuring him. A week
ago last Sunday night he was stricken
with the progressive paralysis character
lstic OF nicotine, and on Sunday night be
died. His death was most pitiIul. First,
sight was lost, then speech, then motion OF
tho neck then mOtiOTOf the arms, and so
on throughout the body, and he lay for u
fortnight unable 10 move or make a sign,
save o pitiful, tonguelGss, inarticulate
sound, which sometimes rose 10 almost
frantic effort, all in vain, TO make known
what he wished 10 say 10 his family or
friends-ior his consciousness and mental
faculties were left unimpared till within
two hours Of the last, 10 aggravate 10 the
uttermost the horror ol his situation-a
living soul 10 dead body. The sense OF
hearing was left unimpaired, so that lie
was conscious Of all around him, while as
incapable Of communication with them
as if dead, save by slight sign Of assent
or dissent to question. The doctors
were fully agreed that tobacco was the
cause Of this stroke"

Character Determined by Door.Shut-
tIugssCuTIous Test,

A correspondent Of the Scientific ArIsr.
lean gives the following novel manner
for measuring mems characters: During
the last Ten years in the winter season,
according TO our daily record, we have
noticed the manner In which 1000 per-
sons who called for work have opened,
shut, or not shut our store doors. This
you may say, is futile and useless under.
taking, but We Gntelt4in very different
opinion. What are the facts and tho
deduCtionsg /. Out Of 1000 persons
recorded, 1856 opened the door and shut
1t carefully when they came In and
when they went out without much
noise. 3. Two hundred and twenty
six opened II in hurry, and made
an attempt TO shut 1t, but did not
and merely pulled it to when they
went out. 8. Three hundred and two did
not attempt 10 shut II at all, either on
coming in or going out. 4. Ninety.slx
left 1t open when they came in, but when
reminded of the fact, made ample apology
and shut it when they went out. 3. One
hundred and two opened 1t in great
hurry aud slammed 1t violently, but left
it open when they wentvout. Q. Twenty
came in with allow do you do, sir" or,
Good morning." or "GOOd evening,
sir T. and all OF these went through the

but did not shut the door when the went

Remarks-WO have employed men out
Of all these classes. and during that time
have had an opportunity ofjudiDg oftheir
merits, &c. The first class-oC S35-were
those who knew their trade and COM
menced and finished their work In a
methodical manner; were quiet and had
little to say in their working hours, and
we're well approved by those for whom
they did their work. They were pune.
tual to time, and lett nothing undone
which they were ordered to do. They
did not complain about trlass, and In all
respects they were reliable men, and were
kind and obliging in their general conduct.
