A Romantic.—Fifty years ago a
, young English ofiloor named Hen
dricks was traveling with his Bister in
Italy, where ho uiot, wooed, won and
ran utT with tho charming duughttr
of a rich and proud uobleumti. Even
as the father of Desdeinona disowned
her, so tlm Italian Count sworo never
again to acknowledge his recreant
daughter. Nothingihulurbod thereat,
she accompanied her husband to thu
British dominions in North America,
thence to Now York, where, aftor giv
ing birth to a daughter, she died.
Hendrix, having thus lost his wife,
gave himself up to dissipation, but was
so far mindful of hist motherh as infai t
us to marry a Gorurnn woman who
had taken a fancy to tho child. Tlm
: girl grow to maidenhood, receiving
little education, for tlm family was
poor and whou still young was mar
ried at Vincennes, Indiana, to uuOliio
river mute named Hiram Titus. They
! lived happily onough until Titus lied,
when she rumovoa to Louisville, where
hIiu led if not a desolate still not a
virtuous life. Now tlm Count, her
grand-father, has yielded to lleaveu
ms \ital trust, and ns sole lineal heir
she has gone to Italy to eluiiu his title
aud Ins wealth. Tho fortuuo which
! thu# fulls to hor is estimated from
$200,000 to 800,000.

A certain doctor, struck with the
largo number of boys under fifteen
years of ago who ho observed smoking
was led to enquire into tho effect tlm
habit had upon tho gouornl health.—
Uo took far his purposo thirty-eight
boys, aged from nine to fifteen, and
' carefully examined them.
]u twenty-seven of them ho dis
covered injurious truces of tho hubi..
In twenty-two there were disorders ol
the circulation and digestion, palpita
tion of tho heart, amt a more or less
marked tasto for drink. In twelve
there was frequent bleeding at the
nose ; they hud disturbed sleep ; and
twelve bad slight ulceration of tho
mucous membrane of tho mouth,
which disappear* d on ceasing from
the use of tubacco for u few days.—
'Hie doctor treated them all for weak
ness, but with but little effect until
smoking was discontinued, when
health aud strength were soon restat
ed. Now this is no ‘old vromnu’s tale,’
as those mv g»veu on anthoriay of the
‘ British Medical Journal.“

llio report of tho commiiwioneni of

production of mannfaturod tobacco
during the last fiscal year was 118,548
GIB pounds. Tho collectidrin of tax
on tobatxxi was $5)32,428 75. Total
quantitymannfucttired during tho year

duction of manufuctured tobaooo ex
ceeded that of the previous year by
oyer 2,000,000 pounds t aud the for

previous year hy near 700,000 pounds.
The eominiasionur urges the contin
uation of tho leaf tobacco clausoa in i
tho not of June G, 1872, without nn i
amendment or alteration. Tuo results
of this great irado, so far os its rela
tion to the government aro concerned,
have been exceedingly satisfactory.
During the hist fiscal year 2,880 fruit
distilleries were registered and. 2,841
operated; 700 distileries other than
fruit were registered aud GG5 operated,
and there has l>eeu an increased activ
ity in all operations relating to boud-
od d inti I led spirits. The quantity pro
duced during tho year 1874, ns com
pared with that of 1878, is ruin lively
greater than tho quantiU withdrawn

A CurloiM Contest.
, Early mi Sunday tin •ruing n gontlo-
‘ man walked out, probably for tue pur
i pose of calling his sheep. After a few
; vigorous calls, the llock collected
i around him nnd clamored ns usual
; for their allowance. One old black
raiu, however, seemed to h ive soino-
j thing on his mind, nnd stood aloof.
I The owner, seeking to conciliate him,
| approached and laid Lis hand upon
| his head. This the rum resented with
a furious churge, which was repeated
until tho owner took to flight, lint
he was too far from the fence, and
the enemy literally hung u|K>u his
i rear with per*ovoriug obstanacy. A
I change of front was resolved upon
ami immediately »ff-otud, hut still
| tho buttery was played with undiiuio-
ibhed fervor. Soon tho parties diuoh-
! od, and after a vigorous scuflie, they
! c inro to the grouud. The rum could
| now do nothiiig, but Iris fleece protect-
! od his ribs from tho furious blows of
: Ins advoisuiy. Both seemed now
j pretty nuutly i xlmustod. The man
; was ou top, and seizing a stouo which
: lay near, oommeuced pounding tho
head of the sheep. Of course the
| ruck was soon roduced to frnginenta ;
i but the muri, having formerly driven
hogs, thought of the expedient of
throwing dust in tho eyes of the recu-
: sant ram, and incontinently filled his
' optics with clay, rubbing It iu. Uo
! then arose to enjoy thu sucockn of his
ruse ; but tho rum " tix “ too, paused
• a single inouiont, applied a km** to
; either eye, and runewtsl tho combat.
And now the fight was more desper
ate than before, and victory seemed
to porch above the shoep. Uut. us he
put all his power into one tiual blow,
; his almost tainting ant gonist succeed
od in avoiding the shock aud catch
ing tho rum by the tail ; and now the
tide of victory turned. A succession
of furious kicks, administered u
| riori, decided thu oontost. Thu ram
cried foul play, bui the adversary
fought for oonquest. At lung'll the
“tail-hold slipped," and both [mrtios
| tied in opposite directions. They will
probably “ fight another day.’’
