that it spoke of his escape. and came to mo
with the paper. Comrade Davis was member

rades of Verlnig X. Hart Post GAR. De-
partment of Colorado, of this place. of which
! have the honor of being Commander. Ho
is worthy man IN every respect, and while
he is n man of splendid physique, he still feels
the result of his imprisonment and the hard
ships consequent. He has lost the sight of one
eye, the result of measles, which he contracted
just before being exchanged from Anderson
willie, and for which he was treated in tie hos
pital at Columbus, o., in 1865. ComTade Davis
has had great difficulty in securing evidence in
regard To his disability. and his claim for pen
sion has been pending for two or three years or
more. This is because no was In prison, and
not with any of his company or regiment when
he was sick We hope to secure special legis-
lation in his behalf If we cannot secure the
matter through the Pension Bureau.
If any of the comrades know anything In
regard to Comrade Davis while he was in prison
or in hospital Mt Columbus, and will let him
know, at this place. it will be kindly appre-
ciated.--JoHN G. WATKINS. Commanding Verl-

prior to the landing of Capt. Smith. Among
these was embraced tho celebrated cow-pea.
Tobacco from the extent to which it is Cul-
tivated, its Importance to commerce, and the
modes of employing it to crafty the senses,
exhibits one of the most remarkable features
in the history of man. From the solace only
of the wild Indians of America, it has become
one of the luxuries of the rich, and gives pleas
ure to the poor, throughout the habitablo globe,
from the burning desert TO the frozen zone.
Sir Richard Granville found il in Virginia in
1856, when the English, for the first time, saw
ii smoked by the natives in pipes made of clay.
1t is believed to have been introduced into
England by Raleigh's colonists on their return
from Virginia. in 1856 Soon after the settle
mont of Jamestown from the increased demand
in Europe, and the peculiar
ADAPTATION OF THE SOIL
to It's culture, considerable quantities were
raised, and numerous individuals, interested in
the Colony, contributed to induce that taste for
it which had already been diflused among all
classes.
In 1911 tobacco was first cultivated in Vir-
gina by the use of the spade previous to which
it had only been raised after the rnde manner
of the Indians In 1916 it was cultivated in
that Colony TO so alarming an extent that even
the streets of jamestown were planted with 1t,
aud various regulations were framed to restrain
its production. but every admonition to the
settlers was disregarded. James | attempted,
by repeated proclamations and publications, to
restrain its use but his efforts had very little
effect and the colonists continued to expert
enco a more rapidly increasing and better do
maud for this staple than any other in the
Province.
In 1917 the prices varied from 81! to IS cents
per pound. In 1921 each person was required
TO cultivate 1000 plants Of eight leaves, weigh
ing in the aggregate 100 pounds. In 1922 there
were made in the Colony 10000 pounds. In
1859 it was enacted by the Grand Assembly
THAT all the tobacco planted this present year
and the two succeeding years in the Colony of
Virginia DO absolutely destroyed and burned,
excepting and reserving SO much, in equal pro-
portion to each planter. as shall make, in the
whole. just tho quantity Of 10000 pounds,

whereof, the creditors of the planters were
compelled to accept and receive 40 pounds Of
tobacco, so stripped aud snoothed. in full sat

Formerly there was much dispute about their
anatomy and general development, but at pres

meet themselves with the Interpretation of well-
ascertained likenesses and dissimilarities in
structure as these bear upon the question Of

DiYesting the subject Of all technicaites,
the results ab which zoologists have arrived
may be stated rs follows: !. Man and tho an

No ape, however, was ever netamorphosed into

opinion. Darwin expressly denies tho posi-
bility of any such transformation. g. The
human traits of the great apes arc not confined
TO n single species, but scattered throughout
anthrop0ids at large.

among other products sent 10 Holland by the
colonists on Manhattan Island that year, as an
evidence Of their prosperous condition.
Hemp and fax were annually cultivated
spun and woven, by Capt. Matthews, of Vir.
giua prior TO l64s. Bounties were offered for
the production Of hemp ia that Colony in 1861,
and fax in 1867; but on the cessation OF
the bounties the culture declined. In 1862
each poll IN Virginia was required to raise per
annum six pounds OF linen thread. The Irish
immigrants who came 10 Londonderry in New

manufacture Of linen cloth aud thread, which
was afterward entered into by others, and large
