THE TOBACCO QUESTION.

NJ. Buley is at the head of French
association whose object is to decry the
use Of tobacco, and the title of the or
SANITATION is LA Societe Contre rAht,us
de Tabac," The weed is inveighed
against il It's economic and hygienic as
poets. France spends every year in
tobacco $50, SIS, 000f., or about $50, 000,-
O00. Before 1880 French people were
only moderate smokers, though great
shutters, but since that period, though
shutting has sensibly diminished, smok-
ing has enormously increased. Chewing
is rare in France, being considered as a
coarse habit, carriers and sailors only be-
ing masticators of the weed. In France
the government, recognizing how uni
versal is the habit of smoking, gives
every one of her soldiers, for his 10
days Of consumption, 100 gram mes OF
smoking tobacco, ta6Gc de c09lti9ae, for
which he is charged only 3 cents. To
provide the soldier with tobacco is con-
sidered by some French military authori-
ties as almost necessity. In Gen.
Brack's "Traite des Avant Postes" he
insists that the cavalry soldier should
cultivate the use of tobacco, as it makes
him more alert and indifferent to hun
ger or thirst. In opposition to this DR..
Blanchet, an army surgeon, insists that.

the ranks, the illness Of many men could

tongue, and nose, necrosis, gastralgia,
gastritis, and enteritis, with vertigo,
mental debility, and even transient at
tacks Of mania. It should be noticed
that the French surgeon cites al
these ills as arising from the abuse
of tobacco. Sir Benjamin Brodie
thought that tobacco in moderation
acted as sedative on the nervous sys

excitement, worry, or physical fatigue

terrible diseases. Experiences In orl

Stern Justice.

The awful midnight murder of the Joyce
family in Connemara Ireland, a region in
famous for the many deeds of atrocity there
perpetrated, on the 18th of last August, will be
punished in manner scarcely less thrilling
than the crime itself. Three of the leaders of
the band of assassns have had their trial at
Dublin, and have received the sentence of
death, and on the Dist inst. four accomplices
pleaded guilty and threw themselves upon the
mercy of the crown. The appeals of their
counsel, and the acquiescence therein of the
attorney general, were, however, of no avail,
and they were sentenced to die on the scaffold
December Is. In passing sentence Judge
Barry remarked that 1t was not improbable that
some of the men had been terrorized into par
ticlpation in the massacre, and perhaps had
taken no actual manual part in the deed, and
he should therefore be glad if in their case the
appeal for mercy were needed by those with
whom the decision rested

A Necklace with Romantic History.

q. 7. Correspondence Washington KepubheJ
While in large jewelry establishment
on Broadway I was shown a necklace
whose history is quite romantic. 1t is
composed of about thirty oriental pearls
of the largest and most valuable descrip-
ton, held with black Jet clasp, set with
two dazzling solitaire diamonds. i is
valued at $40, 900, and is said to be IN
matched either in this country or abroad.
1t was the property of the family of the
Duchess de Kaufraumont, and was pre-
sented by Napoleon Bonaparte. Its last
owner was the Countess Petrovosky, a
Russian lady and near relative to the
Kaufraumonts, who was living in st.
Petersburg until misfortune compelled
her to part with the precious pearls.

A New Maritime Intere5t.

The following article is clipped from the San
Francisco Bulletin of November 7th, in which
many sound reasons are given for inducing the
whaling feet to give up Honolulu as a place
of rendezvous:
some years ago. and more than one since,
this journal has called attention to the impOr-
lance of building up a large whaling interest at
this port. There were some difficulties to en-
counter. For u time the masters of whaling
ships preferred to make Honolulu a port for re-
fitting and supplies. There was less trouble
about crews. But later, whaling ships began to
rendezvous at this port, until now nearly the
whole Arctic fleet comes down here for winter
principally owned at New Bedford, which has for
many years been the centre OF the whaling in
terest in the United States. But the attention of
capitalists in San Francisco has more recently
been turned to this business. There seems to be
no good reason why a port so favorably situated
as this, which Tor the whale fishery is the COM
mercial kew of the Arctic by way Of Behring
Straits, should not have a large home whaling
interest We have now this interesting fact, that
the steam whaler Bowhead; built and owned at
this port, has just returned from the Arctic.
literally full of oil and bone. The value Of the
cargo cannot be here stated, but 1t is probably
worth at the present prices not less than S75,-
900, or. say, two-thirds o. the cost of this new
steamship. The old whaling bark Sea Breeze,
owned at this port, recently returned full of oil
and bone. The profits on that cargo were equal
to the value of FIVE or six such old ships.
Now, here is q demonstration Of what can be
done. 1t is not the whole case, but it serves to
illustrate the fact that this is a good place to build
