4 COSTLY CIGARETTE.

He turned his head 20 ligh! cigarette.
and while so doing the bag was snatched
from the table by somebody unknown.
Thus the reporters relate the story Of
the calamity which befell Mr.. Schwar-
bachers young man who had been set to
watch bag of specie on board the
schooner Mary Eyelinc. That cigarette
cost the young mans employer siao. and
himself his reputation for care and vigil
lance. 1t may even be the means Of his
losing his situation. though we doubt
whether Mr.. Schwarbacher can find a
clerk out Of employment who does not
smoke cigarettes. Nearly all our young
men are addicted to the enervat;ng and
etfeminate habit. ! cigarette requires
strict attention. 1t is a jealous toy. and
will admit OF no divided attention. It
takes all the mind of the average youth 20
engineer it successfully through its proper
stages. There is the tissue paper to tear
Off and curl up So as to hold the tobacco,
which has to be taken from little bag.
Then comes the careful rolling, the clos
ing Of the ends, the lighting and constant
att entior. 1t is evident from this that no
mind is equal to the task Of en-
cheering cigarette and watching bag
Of dollars at the same time. One interest
or the other will be neglected and suffer.
We sympathize with the unfortunate
losers in tits affair. and hope the expert |
7nce will serve as varnin: to all con.
,erned.

In Texas, with a view to making
the punishment of criminals q
source of revenue, the authorities
have instituted q system OF leasing
the labor of penitentiary prisoners
to contractors, who are empowered
to remove the convicts TO any part
of the State where their work can
be made most remunerative, upon
giving satisfactory assurances that
suitable precautions will be taken to
prevent escapes. The lessees of the
State Penitentiary, Ward, Dewey &
Co., have hundreds of convicts EN-.
ployed in railroad building, and
they also work large gangs in the
cultivation of sugar plantations.
Such a system is liable to great
abuses, and according to all ac-
counts its operation in Texas is
most unsatisfactory, both in regard
TO the abuse of the convicts, and by
their escaping aid committing out
