The Use Of Tobacco.

1t is rather singular that Americans
are the only civilized people who habit
ually chew tobacco, although sailors OF
nearly every nation are addicted to its
mastication. 1t is singular, too, that
we, probably, employ tobacco III other
ways less than other countries. Snuff
fling is rather rare here, common as it is
in Europe, especially on the continent.
We do not smoke any more than, If as
much as, the English and the French,
Italians, notably the Germans, Dutch
and Spaniards exceed us in smoking.
But, as tobacco-e eaters, we occupy the
field alone, having, it is to be regretted,
q monopoly of one of the most unwhole-
some and obnoxious OF practices. The
national mastication and expectoration
are known over the world, and do am
pie service in all conceptions and carl.
catures of Brother Jonathan. To see 8
landsman chewing tobacco anywhere
abroad 10 to know him for an American,
native or adopted. Perhaps we stick to
the worst of the three customs because
tobacco is to so large an extent an Amer
lean plant. Europe knew nothing of il
until the discovery by Columbus of the
Western world. The sailors he semi
ashore at Cuba found the natives smok-
ing, and, seeing them emit smoke from
their mouths and nostrils, imagined
them to be on fire. All the natives from
the northwest coast to Patagonia used
tobacco, and to chew it is one of our
inalienable ard aboriginal rights.

Clear the Way

For the escape from the system of its
waste and debris, which, if retained, would
yitiate the bodily fluids and overthrow health.
That important channel Of exit, the bowels,
may be kept permanently free from cbstruc-
tons by using the non-gripiDg, gently acting
and agreeable cathartic Hostetter's Stomach
Bttere, which not only hberates impurities, but
invigorates the lining Of the intestinal canal
when weakened by constipation or the unwise
use Of violent purgatives. The stomach, liver
and urinary organs are likewise reinforced and
aroused to healthful action by this benefcent
tonic and corrective, and every organ, fiber,
muscle and nerve experiences a share Of its
invigorating influence. Unobjectionable in fla
vor, most genial and wholesome medicinal
stimulant, and, owing its efficacy to botanic
sources exclusively, it is the remedy best adapt
ed to household use ON account Of its safety,
wide scope and speedy action.

An Immense Emnire.

When we consider how big the State
of Texas really is, we will cease to won
der at the action of the late Democratic
State Convention. Think of l 500 dele
gates being called to order by one pre-
siding officer, and the roll being called
seven times in one day by the same clerk.
1t is not strange that they were turbu-
lent and noisy, and took days and days to
do their business, because it is on the
principle that great bodies move slowly.
Texas is six times greater than the State
of New York, and considerably larger
than the republic of France, which con-
tains population nearly as large as that
of the United States. Two hundred
such States as Rhode leland could be
carved out of Texas, and then there
would be scraps enough left to make
another New England.

Texas COWBOYS.

Parties just in from the West bring the
news of desperate ARRAY among the
cowboys in Jack county. A party of
nine were gathering stock for certain
stock men, and they drove in a steer be-
longing to other parties. An old gentle
man, in company with younger man,
came up and claimed the steer, and re-
quested the cowboys to cut it out of
their herd, which they refused to do.
The old gentleman then attempted to
cut out the steer himself, whereupon
the herders shot him to death. The
young man ran away and gathered par
ty who overlook the crows that had Just
killed the old man, and killed seven out
OF the nine. The two others got away,
supposed to be wounded, as they were
trailed ten miles by the blood. Jack

If my name could aid il 1 was bound to

most due to me-if may use the phrase
because of the bitterness of political

was a great qualification, because 1T

senting the influences that would have

that un,,er no circumstances would be-
come andidate. Even if anomination

be after q struggle, and before it had

and the result would be Ear different
from what it was before. If / succeeded
and tried to do my best, my very best, l
should still have crippled administra-
ton. This was the public view. Per-
sonally I was weary OF Office. l never
wanted to get out of a place as much as
l did to get out of the Presidency. For
sixteen years, from the opening OF the
war, it had been constant strain upon
me. SO when the third term was seri-
ously presented to me I peremptorily
declined it."

Ingenious COunterfeiting.

An ingenious case of counterfeiting
coin was recently discovered at Hol :
hungabad, in India. Natives, when
testing mohurs, or other gold coin, gen.
orally take them to a ieweler to have a
hole drilled half way through them, for
the purpose of seeing that they are of
genuine metal. The coiner, a jeweler
by trade, manufactured silver limitations
of gold mohurs. and, having drilled two
or three holes half way through them,
to make it appear that they had been as
often tested, thickly gilded them over.
BY these means he. for some time, i'm
posed even on members of his own craft,
till one, more willy than the others, pro-
ceeded to test some OF the counterfeit
coins for himself.

Retiring of Three-Cent Pieces.

1t is said that there is prospect that
the Scent pieces will disappear from
public view within short time, as Post
masters have been ordered TO send all
money of that description which they
may receive at their offices to Washing
ton, in order that its circulation may be
stopped. If this means the silver g.
cent piece, it takes out of circulation a
little dodger which has been before the
public since 1851, having been author
lied by law passed on the Sd of March
of that year. 1t is composed of three
fourths silver and one-fOurth copper,
weighs twelve grains, and is legal tender
for 30 cents. The other and less con-
venient little nuisance of the same de-
nomination, so often mistaken for a
silver dime, is later creation, having
been brought into existence by the law
of March 3, 1865. 1t is composed of
about three-fourths copper and one
fourth nickel, and is legal tender for 60
cents. When it was created by law
there were no silver dimes in circulation
with which to confound it, and it was a
very neat coin, infinitely better than the
Scent shinplasters which it displaced,
but it's bother now to balance ones
cash after paying out q dozen or two a
day for dimes-or, which is worse, re-
ceiving them in the same way.-Nea0
