Florida Tobacco for Cigars.

The Fernandina Mirror saws 1.-THE
Florida soil is considered very favorable
for the fine leaf wrapper used in the best
Havana cigars. The Havana leaf COM
mands 35 cents per pound, when the
broad leaf raised generally in the United
States is worth but IL to II cents. The
demand has increased beyond any other
product. In 1868 the number OF cigars
manufactured was about 200, 900 ,OOO-in
1883 the number was 1867 ,645 900, or
nineteen times as many. The produc-
ton of tobacco in 1863 was 23,S52. 3S7
pounds--in lSS3it was | 20 1861 ,55S pounds
an increase of seven and half times.
So it will be seen that the use of cigars
grows much more rapidly than that of
tobacco. 1t is said not to exhaust the
soil more than other products and al
was commands ready sale for cash.
Gadsden and Marion counties once
produced considerable quantities of the
light Havana leaf raised from Havana
seed. II the farmers of Ohio, Indiana,
and Missouri, can proftably raise tobae-
co, we see no reason why the farmers of
Middle Florida can not do so with profit.
Florida, in 1881 manufactured 49,
$50, 625 cigars, but New York manufac-
tured over one billion.

llA Egypt. fIxlr

TOY
The acquisition of Egypt by England
is one of the most notable acts of the
age. Having now got possession, it is
not likely that England will ever give it
up, for with it she will not only be indie
pendent of other countries for her food
supply but also of the long staple cot
ton that is used in her manufactures.
England is lending Egypt $40, 100000 to
pay off her debt, and going to great ex-
pense in erecting apparatus for irrigation
on vast scale. The land is very rich,
but as rain never falls it has to depend
on the rise OF the Nile river for water to
make it productive. We may look to see
the crops increased amazingly within the
next few years all that is wantedis inn
proved culture, and it will produce al
y most anything. With the possession OF
Cyprus and Egypt the English Indian
possessions are safe, and, SO, Eng
land could risk fighting all Europe
to keep possession of that country, ant
no doubt she will do so.

The Women of Capri.

D. The Capri women are almost inyari-
bly, handsome and healthy looking. In
the course of half an hours walk YOU
may meet pure specimens of Phpnician,
Roman, Saracen, Spanish and Greek
types, survivals the successive conquer
ors OF the island. But what strikes one
mostly is the statuesque gracefulness of
these girls in all their movements. How
ever mean their occupaticn, whether it be
carrying, building stone or climbing a
Ladder with a bucket of morter on her
head, the Capriote girl will always be
graceful, and the, lines of her body in
motion viii. always call up "reminiscences
of Greek art. This fact, together with
the scenery of the. island, the delicious
climate and the cheapness, of living, has
made Capri a fayorite resort ofartists of
all nations. 49,.
ID Several artists have wived with women
OF the country-their former models
and settled down in a strange half-wild
and half-civiliZed existence. Other res
ldents. who, for various reasons have
settled ile0apri slIave likewise taken UNI
to themselves spouses from among the
women OF the country, and as these
residents belong tor all = nationalities,
with 8lerhaps a majority OF Anglo5sax-
ons, you may imagine what curious,
heterogeneous and thoroughlvun
tional affair Capriote Society is. A
man who has had the force Of character
to cutshimself off from the life of cities,
ind to come and live, wear in and year
out, in beautiful, calm and sleepy Capri,
is a widely different creature from the
mortal. for whom it is supreme bliss to
take an excursion train to Herne Bay,
where he sits upon the beach, binds
green bandana round his head and
reads the Post. All the foreign residents
in Capri are characters hoIwould repay
study, and theirtideas and manner Of
living would not prove an ungrateful
subject for the novelist.-Er.
