The Vile Cigarette.

The following is the result OF an
analysis of cigarette, made recent
ly by a physician: Tie tobacco was
found to be strongly impregnated
with opium, while the wrapper which
was warranted to be pure rice paper,
was proved to be the most common
quality OF paper whitened with ar
senic. The two poisons combined
were present in sufficient quantities
to create in the smoker a habit OF
using opium without being aware oi
it. His cravings can only be satis-
fed by an incessant consumption oi
cigarettes. These facts would be
sufficient to stop the manufacture OF
anything less insidious in its intiu
ence. But the cigarette smoker will
smoke on to death, and won't be
but little missed when he is gone.

ing words concerning the outlook OF
the school. He invited A. e. Vandi-
yer, Senator Mackay, Capt. Wallace
and II. b. Richardson to speak, all
of whom responded and expressed
themselves as being in sympathy
with the education of the colored
people. Much good advice was Civ
en-, which, if followed by the pupi!s.
will be of lasting benefit to them.
Capt. Wallace, who had visited
the school on several former occa-
sions, testified to the capabilities of
Prof. Craddock, not only as to his
being a competent instructor, but q
good disciplinarian. He gave the
teachers assurance that the board
would he found in hearty sympathy
with them in administering proper
discipline, and in everything they
did to promote the good of the
school.
Prof. Craddock followed Capt.
Wallace In q very sensible talk, which
evinced clearly the interest he feels in
the welfare Of bis race. We believe
good results are attending his man
agement of the colored school in
Keytesville.

rOHment, 23I.

Prompted by our own inclination
as well as by a cordial invitation
from Prof. A. +. Willis, We attended
the opening OF the Keytesville public
schools last Monday, and were
pleased to note the favorable
auspices under which the education
al work began.
As early as 8 o'clock the school
children began to assemble at the
school-house and upon the campus,
with pleasure beaming from every
eye.
About 9 O'Clock the pupils as
sembled in their respective rooms
and after a short drill in calesthen-
ics the teachers at the head of their
respective classes marched in regu-
lar order to the shade at the west
side of the school-house, each de-
partment of the school constituting
a separate column. In few well
chosen worts Prof. Willis addressed
the school concerning the work ex-
pected to be accomplished by both
teachers and pupils. He then intro
duced Mr.. j c. Crawley, who led in
an earnest prayer invoking Gods
blessing upon the work about to be
begun. A. c. Vandiver, Senator
Mackay, Judge Smith and Capt.
Wallace were severally introduced
and made short addresses appropri-
ate to the occasion. Mr.. j. L. Craw-
ley excused himself from making
speech, but promised to make them
six speeches for the school, one in
each room, during the year.
Prof. Willis, after thanking the Wis
itors for their presence, directed the
pupils to return to their rooms
for the purpose OF complet-
ing the organization, which they ac-
complfshed by noon, and were dis
missed for the day.
The following number of pupils
were enrolled in the respective
rooms:

coffee. 1t doesn't grow on bushes,
