A MARROW ESCAPE.
The EmIta Run Into by a Schooner In
the Fog.

The steamer Emita left Portland on her
610 O'Clock trip Thursday night for Little
Diamond and Long Islands with about 30
passengers, both ladies and gentlemen,
aboard. just after the steamer started the
fog shut down quite heavily and it was diff
cult to see boats length ahead. The
steamer proceeded cautiously, blowing her
whistle constantly. As she passed the
breakwater a schooner under full sail, going
rapidly, so we are informed by passengers
on the Emita, doomed out of the fog and
struck the steamer glancing blow ON the
port bow. carrying away all the railing as
far aft as the house. The shock was severe
and the passengers were naturally very
much frightened but they all behaved ad-
mirably. The officers of the boat were cool,
quickly discovered that no damage had been
done to the hull and the steamer proceeded
on her trip and landed her passengers at
their destinations safely. She made her re-
turn trip to the city shortly after o'clock.
The schooner, we are told, continued right
along without stopping to ascertain what in
jury had been done, she evidently escaping
unhurt. None Of the passengers of the
Emita were injured.

Why Yne Elder Used Tobacco.

s'rosc he used it for the good looks of
it; | s'pose that is what folks use tobacco
for. But good land! | can't see a single
pretty look to il, nor never could, from
the time a man takes in ahalfa plug or so,
and wads it up in one side of his mouth,
shown his weller, nasty lookin' teeth, and
lettin' the black, filthy lookin' juice run
down his mouth and whiskers, to the time
he splits it all ont again onto carpets,
stair-ways, church-pews, concert-halls,
car-iloors, wimmin's dresses, and ct
cetcry.
| can't see a mite of pretty looks about
it. But | am reasonable and always was.
And there probably may be some beauty
in it that | hayn't never seen, or there
wouldn't be 50 many follow ii up.
For it must be for The looks of it that
they use it, for it don't taste good. That
| know, for | got some into my mouth
once by mistake, over to Miss Babbet's,
and 50 what | know, | know; | can take
my oath on 1t. No, they don't use it for
that.
1t can't be for the profit of it. for it
hain't profitable; quito the reverse. Why,
there is about thirty million dollars
worth raised in the United States a year,
and somebody has got to pay for it..
Why / s'pose some poor men chew
enough of this stutf-ohew it just to spit
it out again-and smoke it-draw the
smoke into their mouth just to blow
it out again-why | s'pose this proceedin'
costs 'em enough in ten or fifteen years to
buy EN- a good little house. And there
they are willin' to live and die homeless,
themselves and them they love, just for
looks, justt to try to look pretty.
For it must be for that. 1t can't be for
health, for the doctors say it hurts the
health awfally, makes folks weak and
nervous, aud sometimes lead to blindness
and fits.
1t hain't for morals, for folks say, and
