We well remember with what pleasure we accepted it's hospitality one morning a couple of years back after a weary midsummer-night's ride over the road leading to il from the west After leaving Ralston, at which point the two soldiers riding as escort had quit ted us, about a m. we had fallen into a dose from which we were rude ly awakened by the driver calling up- on us to get out and have our arms ready as he believed, from the running of cattle, that the Apaches were in canyon just ahead We, strange to say, acquiesced in the request, but found DO Apaches.

 That upon examination we find ev- erylhing in connection with the office of County Treasurer in a condition that reflects great credit on the Treasurer | MT. Leatherwood. We examined the books, papers, etc, and find them kept in such manner that your Committee was able to see at a glance the exact condition of our county finances. We found on hand in the different funds, all kept separate and distinct, the sum of S3,4s06D Three Thousand Four Hundred and Thirty and G7-1OO Dol lars, which sum was turned over 10 us and fOuhd correct.
 We would suggest suitable safe be furnished the County Treasurer for a proper safe-keeping of Territorial and County funds. as we consider il unjust to expect the County Treasuser to be responsible for funds without proYid- ing some means to assist him in prop erly securing the same.
 In conclusion we desire to express our appreciation of the manner in which Mr. Leatherwood conducts the affairs of his office and congratu ate the people of Pima county Tn having such an officer 10 superintend the ad- ministration of the finances of the county. Very respectfully,

Tobacco and Good Manners.

Courtesy has been defined as "Benevo-
lence in trifes." II is respect for the
rights and feelings Of others 'Tis an Oh.
servance Of courtesies in little things
which gives a charm to social life, while
discourtesies are always annoying.
'Tis one of the incidental evils Of the
use of tobacco that il destroys these
courtesies of life 10 makes men obliv-
ious Of the rights and feelings Of others
Tobacco users are unfrequently blind TO
any rights Of others which they are bound
to respect We can hardly walk along
the street without inhaling the nauseat
ing fumes Of tobacco; for smokers, with
pipes and cigars. have gone before and
will follow. IL matters nothing that
these fumes sichen US. What care the
smokers; 'tis their right to smoke on
the streets.
The authorities would doubtless inter
fere to prevent housekeepers from throw
ing ashes, or slops. or filth from the
kitchen on the sidewalk, but the tobacco
user claims the privilege Of befouling the
walk with tobacco juice, old quids and
cigar stumps, to be swept up by the ladies
who may have occasion to walk behind
them
In public gatherings where only men
ult HtNAAAt anu aAAAAt AiAAfa NNNA ffANAf
ladies are present. men and boys stalk in
putting their cigars, entirely regardless
Of those who are sickened by the fumes.
Why should they stop smOkingg IL 9th
ers do not like the smoke, they may
retire, as some are often compelled TO do.
Young men are sometimes a little con.
siderate OF the tastes OF young ladies and
hide the cigar in their presence but
when the lady becomes a wife, the cour-
tesy ceases. She must then have the
fumes Of tobacco about the house. She
must allow her lord to smoke when they
ride or walk together, and when they are
on the railway car, she must entertain
herself, or care for the children for weary
hours, while be regales himself in the
smoking car.
We would by no means affirm that there
are no gentlemen among tobacco users
There are some who keep their habits to
themselves. They go by themselves for
a smoke, and then change their garments
and sweeten their breath before they 60
into the society Of others. We are sorry
to be obliged TO say that such are the ex-
ception rather than the rule.
The use Of tobacco is one Of the grosser
habits, and its tendency is TO render
men discourteous IT, then, our young
men desire to be gentlemen, they should
avoid a habit which so generally leads to
ungen tlemanly feelings and actions.

JACKSON, OHIO, THURSDAY, MARCH T. 1873

| il will shortly be necessary TO call him
that the momentum Of the average stamp
| OF the Pastors foot would infallibly be
| equivalent TO an increased pressure Of
/ fifteen pounds. As the result showed,
this calculation was correct. and the ar
rangement Of the lever and weight was
made with admirable skill.
Ii was about the middle Of the next
| Sunday mornings sermon Rev. Mr.. Sun
bright was eloquenuy denouncing the
/ corruption Of the Church of Rome, that
he executed one Of his ablest and most
convincing stamps and disappeared from
view with startling celebrity. The au-
dience looked upon his disappearance as
a new rhetorical fgure, and we're filed
with admiration. One young man, who
had visited New York, whispered quite
audibly that he had seen both t. De Witt
Talmage and George l.. Fox. and that
neither Of them had ever executed so
neat and agile a tries. The minutes
came and went. but the Pastor did not
reappear. Doubtless, so thought his peo-
pie, he was waiting to give full effect
to his eloquence; but after time they
became somewhat surprised at the ur-
usual pause in the services. Pres
ently and Elder arose and remarked
that their beloved Pastor evidently in
tended his hearers to spend little sea
son in meditation, whereupon every one
meditated with great assiduity for five
minutes longer. At the expiration Of
this time il was feared that Mr. Sunbright
might have fallen down in fit, and three
gentlemen simultaneously went into the
pulpit and amid general CONSERVATION
reported that be had totally vanished -
The excitement that ensued was tre-
mendous, and the meeting broke. up in
disorder. No one ventured to explain
the mysterious disappearance except an
elderly single lady, who suggested sud
den raid on the pal of envious angels
This theory rapidly gained adherents, IN
the absence Of any opposite theory, and
might have been generally accepted bad
not faint knocking beneath the pulpit
been heard. An examination was insti-
tuted, and Mr.. Sunbright was discovered,
much abraded as to his surface, and in
wardly filed with righteous indignation.
Fortunately, he had sustained no serious
injury, and he was conveyed into the ad-
joining lecture-room and subjected TO
variety Of soothing processes by the local
medical man. There probably never was
a worse small boy than the ingenious
contriver of the trap. To a certain ex-
tent he has since expiated his offcnse.
but Mr.. Sunbright is firmly convinced
that there is no punishment that will do
justice to the culprit. in which opinion
all respectable persons will agree. At
present the small boy studies as well a.
recites on his feet but that circumstan.
ce, with all that IL implies. gives but
transient comfort to the injured minister
The pulpit floor, as well as Mr. Sunbright.
have since been thoroughly repaired. but
the painful incident deserves to be noted,
partly as a warning to Mr.. Talmage and
partly as a melancholy evidence that
Birchville possesses positively the worst
Of all existing small boys.
