Tobacco and Liberty.
From the London Chronicle

rom the Londen Chronicle.
England. like Roumania. may be said
to owe its liberty. in part, to the smoking

expenses of the revolution Of 1888. Tba
states of Holland advanced William of
Orange 100000 for his expedition ia
England In return for an approprfation
or the duty on all the tobacco imported
into this country in 1889. That year the
tobacco imports amounted to il.OOoOOO
pounds. which paid duty at the rate Of Is
per pound. and per cent poundage in ad-
dftion. So the Dutch realized q hand.

few Alexandrians who are not willing to
serve Uncle. Sam. Hourly the candidates
increase. That there will be considerable
wire pulling for this plum there is but
little doubt. All of the candidates are
making claims of success.
Another job many are also seeking is that
of collector of port for this city. Alex

jobs, and there will be merry chase
among the officeholders for the patron

One of the big jobs for this section is

now a patient in the Western State Hos
pital for the Insane, Staunton, Va, is i'm
proving. while his mental condition is
said to be but slightly better. This is the

j. S. De Jarnette. superintendent of the
asylum, by n. S. Greenaway, clerk of the
corporation court, in response to a re-
quest as to his condition made by Judge
c. l.. c. Barley of the court.
This request was made on the asylum
authorities in order to ascertain just
when Rixey will be able to appear in
court and stand trial on the indictments
pending against him in connection with
the collapse of the concern.
According to the letter received Rixey
does carpenters work about the place
daily, but he is not able to think rapidly.
There are number Of indictments

the collapse of the concern. Until his
mental condition improves he will still be
kept a patient at the asylum.
