THE NEW TARIFF ON CIGARS

4 good deal of noise has been heard lately about the increased duty on i'm imported cigars. The following para graph from democratic paper shows what it all amounts to. Out of, say l3oO0,0O0 smokers in the United States about 66.9OO smoke imported cigars, They are the rich men as rule, who should be willing to contribute to the expenses of government, by paying a Small duty on their luXuries which helps to relieve the poor man to that extent from duties on their necessaries of life. This Is one of the most commendable features of the new law, and an honest examination of the tariff of 1880 will disclose many such.
 The effect of the tobacco duty will be to extend the cultivation of tobacco in this country and increase he manufacture of cigars:
 At the outside, we take from Cuba lI0.OO0,OO0 cigars a year. That is all the demand calls for. Consequently We some Tn round numbers o0O,OVO ol them every day.
 I thlnk it is fair to give five cigars as each smokers daily average. So we see by easy figuring that just o6,O00 per sons are all that are required to get away with all the imported cigars that the United States consumes annually. | Astonishing isn't it? Out of an army of 100000 people in this country who smoke, only G6.OOO indulge in the luxury of imported cigars, but only 66,OOO pay not less than an average of Sl apiece every day for the privelege which makes the snug little sum of S22,OO00O0 which goes up in the fragrant smoke of the Havana in this great and glorious land.

THE Board of Supervisors acquitted themselves with credit in their declsion concerning the Arivaca vote. The peo- pie of Arivaca are not spring chickens at the voting business.

A SOMEWHAT curious decision has heen made by St. Louis court in the c;.se where the eXecu tors CT an estate were sued for S600, the prics of girl sold in slavery days, The court gave judgment h favor of the plaintiff, upon the ground that the contract of the sale had been made before slavery had been proclaimed Illegal, hence emancipation did not in validate the debt. It is doubtful if any other court will have occasion to decide upon this point. But this case is sug- gestive reminder of the times when the traffic of humanity was leeaiized by a treat republic.

THIRTY YEARS PRACTICE.
A Letter from an Eminent Physician

MR. EDITOR: At the risk of indorsing 6 pro prietsry preparation, I have e few words in favor of new laxative principle. But first, how I came to discover it. A patient asked s3out taking Joys Vegetable sarsapsrilla. AZ sarssparillss usually contain mercury or iodides I objected, and asked for the formula, which finding purely vegetable, snd SO mild ss to be to my mind almost inert, consented. Imagine my sstonishment when perfect laxative action was reported. It has two great points. Frsf, being purely vegetable, it is (unlike mercury) Tot cumulative in the system, being easily car ried of by the digestive processes; and second, it is effective with less quantity of the cathar- tic principle than has hitherto been sttaineble. It in this respect ranks as 6 discovery, and ap- breaches the ideal, viz: the least medicine con- sistent with the greatest good. As people teke laxatives indiscriminetely, it is important for them to know at least one that is safe for con- dnuous use; hence this communication. The natural laxative effects of this preparation must, for the reasons above, interest both the public and the profession.

But this Madge did not much mind.
She had lived amid the mountain fast

She did not know what fear was.
When she was but twelve years old her
