Close to the sun in lonely lands
Hinged with the azure world, he stands
The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls
He watches from his mountain walls,
And like thunder-bolt he falls.

A Wonderful Enterptise.

The British Anti Tobacco Association
says the Pail Mall Gazette, will be
terribly affected 10y some painful intelli-
genee which appears in the Virginia
| Territoridt Enterprise. 1t seems that
Professor ManleseI, German gentleman,
who has lately arrived in that city, has
invented a scheme for laying tobacco
smoke on to houses like gas, and is now
engaged in erecting extensive works in
Virginia for that purpose. The tobacco
is to te burned in large retorts, and the
smoke thus produced will pass through
pip's TO large belIshaped receptacle
boiler iron, where it will be cooled, purif
ed, and SO scented that it will have the
favor Of the finest Havana cigar From
the smokeomcter main pipe will lead up
iuto the city, and from this will be small
branch pipes leading to all the principal
houses in the town. In every house
where The smoke is taken there will be a
meter, more delicately constructed than a
gas meter, for measuring and recording
the amount of smoke Consumed. Running
from these meters will be pipes leading
to all the rooms in the house, and con-
nccted with these pipes will be long
! flexible tubes with amber mouth pieces
| tor the convenience Of smokers, who will
only have to turn a small silver thumb
screw, aud the cool delicious perfumed
smoke will glide into his mouth For
smokers in the street the Professor has
Invented india rubber receptacle fitting
to the chest, which, when Inflated with
smoke, greatly improve the appearance
Connected with these bags are infexible
tubes ending iu amber mouth pieces,
which may be tucked into the waistcoa,
pocket. Smoke thus provided will be
freed from nicotine and other injurious
elements, and the expense of smoking will
be considerably reduced There can be
little doubt that Professor Manlesel's plan
is admirably adapted for he new co opera
tive homes we are abou, to establish, and
except the laying down the smoke pipe
involves taking up the roads and impeding
the traffic, there can be no objection to its
adoption in this country.

Dan Rice'S MiSfortunes.

Dan Rice, the old clown, has fallen
under his evil star, and his misfortuues
will excite no little sympathy Alter
quite successful summer tour he reached
Louisville about three weeks ago, rented
the Exposition building and fitted it up
at great expense. The first week turned
out badly, and for the second time the
price Of admission was reduced to fifteen
aud twenty five cents but the show didn'i
draw. As consequence, the whole
concern was attached, and on Saturday
last, horses, canvas, and general parap-
herualia wero sold at auction, the cele
brated blind trick horse bringing only
Sf25. The performers, musicians, and
all the employees were minus their wages,
Dan not having dollar left to pay them.
During the summer, Dan himself. with
his blind horse, etc., was travelling with
another company 10 Canada at $1,000 per
week, and that, too, went up, leaving him
minus $4,000.
