Tha nCirnrett. Exe.r

A New York oculist says that the
greatest enemy TO the eyes of young
men is the cigarette. Recently a dis
ease has appeared among smokers
which is dangerous, and after careful
investigation the best authorities, who
for long time were at loss TO under
stand the peculiar malady have trace d
1t to the small paper covered tobacco
sticks. IL is now known as the "cig-
arctic eye" and can be cured only by
long treatment. Its symptoms are
dimness and film-like gathering over
the eye, which appears and disappears
at intervals.

since her birth on Feb. Is, 1871. She
Is OF sound constitution, but has never
outgrown the physical or mental stat
ure OF a sucking. She can utter only
articulate sounds. She has all her
teeth but can not masticate, and eats
only liquid, or at most pulpy food.
She often sleeps two days and two
nights at a time, and having never

An Old Slaves Notable Funeral

The attachment of the master to his
old slaves. and OF tho fidelity OF the lat
ter to their former master. even since
their emancipation. is we'll illustrated
in the case OF an old family colored
servant OF Judge Joseph ii. Lewis Of
Glasgow. Ky.. one of the bravest OF
Confederate Generals. and now one Of
the judges Of the court OF appeals. One
OF his slaves before the war was deaf
and dumb negro called "Black George. :"
but oftener by the simple appellation
Of Dummy" Since his freedom he
has remained servant in Gen. (now
Judge) Lewis family, Ind no induce
ment could have made him leave them.
On the other hand. the family have
been extremely kind to him. and he
manifested his appreciation Of II by the
most faithful devotion TO them. He
could never hear nor speak from his
birth. but all his other senses were
greatly quickened. Scarcely anything
ever happened in town that he did not
in some unknown manner become
aware of II. and IL death occurred he
was one Of the first TO know Of il and

ed person.

pneumonia last week. and notwith-

Yesterday would have doubtless caused
surprise. Three carriages next to the
hearse contained some of the first fami-
lies of the town. those OF Gen. Lewis,
his sisters and sons. which were fol-
lowed by long procession OF colored
people. This respect is often shown
here by the white people to their old
slaves Many of the latter are to-day
subsisting upon the charity of their old
masters or their masters families.
They constantly seek them for advice
and help. which Is given them. and
