To the tobacco-loying reader it will be
interesting to learn how the weed was
smoked in the New World before it was
i.srtroduced into taeO I'D BY the immor-
tai Jean Moot, whose name be forever
blessed. The habit Of smoking did not
possess among the Nahuss the peculiar
character attached to it by the North
Amearican natives, as an indispensable
accessory to treaties, the cementing OF
friendship, and SO forth, but was indul-
ged in chiefly by the sick. as pastime
and for its stimulating effect. The orr
gin of the cuatom among the Nahuas
may be traced to the use Of reed grass,
filled with aromatic herbs. which were
lighted and given to guests that they nigh
diffuse the perfume about them; gradu
ally they came to puff the reeds and
swallow the smoke, pretending to find
therein a remedy against headache. fati-
que, phlegm. slseplcssness. etc. Three
kinds of tobacco were used. the yeti,
signifying tobacco in general, obtained
from q large leave plant. the picyetl.
from . small but stronger species and
quauystl, q less esteemed kind known
later on as Wild tobacco. Clavigero as
serts that the picyeil and quauyetl were
the only species known among the Next
cans. 1t was generally smoked after
dinner in the form of paper reed or maize
leaf cigarettes. called pocystl, smoking
tobacco, or acayetl, 'tobacco-reed.' the
leaf being mixed in paste, says Veytia,
with 1ochiocotzotl, liquid amber.
aromatic herbs. and pulverized charcoal.
so as to keep smouldering when once
lighted. and shed a perfume. The picyetl
tobacco was smoked later in the day.
without admi1ture, and somewhat 10 the
shape of cigars. The smoke was inhaled
and the nose closed. in order that none
of the grateful vualities should DO lost.
Wooden, metal, or bamboo tubes were
sometimes used instead Of cigarettes.
the pulvevized leaf is an ancient
custom which We owe to them. From

In THE BeKcHER TRIAL three weeks
have already been consumed, with little
more accomplished than taking the testi-
mony Of Noulton. The Legislature of
New York has passed, and the Governor
has signed. bill empowering the City
Court of Brooklyn to continue its terms.
The witnesses to follow Mr.. Noulton are
very numerous. Mr.. Tilton may go on
the stand, Mr.. Beecher certainly will.
and besides these are Carpenter. Wilkin-
son, johnson. Woodruff, Mrs. Morse.
Bessie Turner and probably scores Of
others. No expenditure Of time, pa
tience or money is considered too great
if the truth can be discovered and the
scandal put forever at rest.

In An account Of the proceedings Of
the fourteenth day Of the trial of the
Beecher-Tilton case, the New York
Herald says: &C.,. -...- a
Nobody presumes that this trial will
be determinative. 1t is not so regarded
BY any household in Brooklyn. II by
any powerful evidence the reliability Of
Moulton could be completely broken,
and Tilton's private life proved grossly
immoral, still there are the documents
which have puzzled the world.
Probably no case ever occurred since
the trial Of Alexander, alias the Earl OF
Stirling. for forgery. related in :" War

many plausible sides. all contrary. This
is evident from the general fact that

that he stood by the nation its firm
friend in the hours o: danger. Bat if he

with profound regret that this man of
infinite humor and Of kindly heart has
been stricken down, and that the gloomy
reaper stands, scythe in hand. to gather
him with the innumerabls caravan that
is pressing onward to the grave" A few
months since Senator Nys was attacked
