Each machine has a duty to per | form. First, there is a large cylinder in which all the nuts are placed, in order bat the dust and dirt may be shaken off of them. They pass from this cylinder inta the brushes, where every nut re. cetves fifteen feet of n brushing before it becomes free. Then they pass through n slnice-way to the floor Po where tiey are dropped on an endless belt, about two and a half feet in width, and passing along at the rate of four miles an hour, On each side of the belt stand ght colored girls, and as the nuts fa)! from the sluice on the belt the girls, with a quick motion of the hand, pick out ail the poor looking nuts, and by the time the belt reaches the end two-thirds of the nuts are picked off, allowing only the finest tO puss the crucible. Those that do pass drop throagh another sinice and empty into the bags on the floor be OW away by hand, sewed up and branded as “vooks," with the figure of a rooster prominent on its sides. The peas caught up by the girls are thrown to one side, placed in bags and carried into another room, where they are again picked over, the hest singled out, bagged and branded AS “ships,” These are as fine a nut as the frst for eating, but in shape and color do not compare with the * cocks,” Having gone over them twice. we now come to a third grade. whieh are called and brand»? & enaw8.” These are Pieked out of the cullings of the “cocks” and “ships,” but now and then vou will find & respectableJooking nut among them: though the eyes of the colored damsels are as keen as a hawk, and a bad nut is rarely allowed to pass their hands.

Young women take more exercise than they formerly did. They ride and walk more and are more in the open air. They have not the insane dread of the sun's rays which they once had.

In such homes the greatest of all blessings that could be hoped! for would be the health of the mistress re- stored ; but too often it is the one bless. ing which never COMES. American homes, more than any other, perhaps in the world, have been saddened by sickly women. If this shall be so no longer, it will be a great blessing to the nation. And the remedy issimple. American men are as strong and healthy as those of other nations: there is no good reason why American women should not be. All that is needed is proper attention to dress and exer- cise. let women dress, as men do, so that their bodies shall not be squeezed and pressed together, but have free room. for motion, and let them go out into the air and sunshine, 28 men do, and exer- cise their bodies, and the race of Ameri- can women will not become extinet, as it once threatened to On the contrary, it will be improved, built up and beautitied, and a time will shortly come when a healthy man will not have to hunt a whole country over w find a healthy wife.

TOBACCO DRUNKARDS, | | | | A Npecialist's Ntatement, '* Some of your statements made in | your address before the Woman's Tem. perance League, elicited considerable discussion,” said a Wilness reporter who was present at that meeting, to the lecturer of the evening, Mr. Garnsey, in an interview, “You refer I suppose among other RELIGIOUS NEWS AND NOTES, Presbyterians gained 49,000 members in 1879, The wevised New There are 4,350 United tdrethren of tobacco as * drunkards,’ was not a slip of the tongue starting fact that a tobacoo-user drunkard, the smoker * Many excellent men, leaders of the people, are smokers, who would reject a glass of liquor with moral aversion.” Users : in an Especially is this true of can discern the brother's eye, notwithstanding the cloud of tobacco smoke in his own. | would, however, say to such an one * Cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou clearly to onast out the mote out of thy brother's eve n * Lot me explain the statement that an habitual tobacco-user is a drunk ard,” continued Mr, Garnsey. * Medi cal men look upon any by ain that is ex cited into unusual or bevond natural activity by a narcotic, a8 being in an intoxicated condition. The brain, falsely and unfairly acted upon, is in an intoxicated state, whether the acting agent 1s opium or tobacco, These three poisons each act in a differ. ent manner. Alcohol excites its vio- tim; opium puts him to sleep, and he ies like a dead man: tobacco takes a middle ground —-produces inactivity, stupor, energy, A thoughtless and indifferent tone of mind resuits, wher net under influence of the weed. I'he brain has been trained to act only when intoxicated by the narcotic, to- bacco, When the mind must be active, users chew twice the quantity of the weed. If their supply is exhausted be- fore the task is accomplished, how they sigh! The workman throws down his implements. ‘It is no use! I must have a chew of tobacco, or I cannot do the job,'—or discipher the problem, or whatever itmay be! Now, I ask, in all candor, is such an one a sober man, or is he an intoxicated man when, the chew being orthcoming, his nerves be. come quiet, his brain rebounds with new power and he accomplishes his task?’ * He would argue that the result was good, that the stimulant helped him,” suggested the reporter. * Because he had trained himself to work only in an intexicated state. It affects the stomach as a deadly poison In course of time it utterly destroys di- gestive functions. If tobacco does not affect the mind, what has the number of pounds sold to do with the number of suicides in any part of the country! There are men who if you will give them the number of the population in a certain district and the number of pounds of tobacco shipped to that dis- trict for immediate consumption there, will tell you aimost to a man the num- ber of suicides that occur annually among them. This is atact. Habitual tobacco users are men who seldom draw a sober breath, The smell of their breath is almost equal to the gas of a SOWEer pipe, ; ** Public sentiment has a great deal of tolerance for the tohaceo-user.” “The public is not intelligent on the subject and does not eare for informa. tion. The agency of tobacco is masked. A strong, well-looking and hearty man who has sapped all the vitality from his system, and has spat it out under his feet, meets with some little accident, perhaps has some sudden sickness and is gone. * What caused hisdeath?'

It was no. always so.” “ What reiation has the use of to- bacco to the appetite for alcohol?” ** A craving for alcohol is aroused by the physical conditions produced by the use of tobacco. General debility, weariness, and a marked prostration of the whole system are just the states that aloeholic medicines have been pre scribed for, for centuries. The sudden stimulus of alcohol produses such an exuberant feeling, the victim drinks deeper and deeper till all self-control is Delirium tremens, and death re soe alcohol, JOINS Of of is is a lost. “i sults: and 1 believe the self-murderer from this course will be eailed in judg- ment as any other suicide. It is a sin- gular, vet nevertheless true, statement, that the use of alcohol alone never pro- duces delirium tremens, but it is a dis- ease natural to tobacco, and is hastened by the use of aleohol. “Dr. Blanchard of this city,” pur- sued Mr. Garnsey, “asserts that in fifs teen years’ practice he Lins never seen or heard eof delirum tremens except where tobacco had heen used for years; and he says that though s man should drink all his days and not use tobacco he might die from the drink. but the delirium tremens would never show jt- seif; and that it is produced directly through the ageney of tohacco, whieh completely shatters and wrecks the nervous system, so that it cannot stand the sudden hard shocks of alcoholic stimulants, and the delirium tremens is a natural result of such a condition. ** From tobacco, four distinet and sure poisons can be extracted. We have no other mineral or vegetable substance on the globe of which this may be said, Two of the feur poisons can be procured from other sources, while two are only known to tobacco and are peculiar to itself. These two are the most deadly, pamely, nicotianni, a concrete or solid oil; the other, nicotine, which is a limpid. colorless liquid. Dr Virgil Blanchara tells that he took 4a piece of a broken stem ol 2 meerschaum pipe and scraped with a knife on the inside: gave one- eighth of the serapings to a Scoteh wiastiff weighing sixty-five pounds, and it killed him in ten seconds. “The use of tobucco was carried to such excess in the Sandwich Islands many years ago, that many would fal. down senseless and suddenly die. “Two drops of oil ot tobacco placed on the tongue of a cat will kill it in four minutes amid horrid convulsions. “Dr. Clay, of M chester, England, states that a little boy, eight years oid, was afflicted with scald-head. His father steeped some tobacco and bathed the parts affected at five minutes before two in the alternoor. The child almost instantly complained of giddiness, vom- ited, his limbs tottered, grew pale. He was covered with a cold sweat and at half-past five o'clock, three hours and a half from the time of application, he died of convulsions.” Mr. Garnsey gave a number of inci- dents, some occurring in this city, show- { ing the poisonous character of the weed. “Why,” said he, '* from one pound of ordinary tobneeo, forty or sixty grains cf nicotianni and nicotine can be pro- duced, which would kill one hufdred | human creatures in fifteen minutes. | Yet, men roll the dangerous stuff as a We have stores entirely devoted to the sale | of it, and small boys buy and use it with | perfect liberty!

A Savosota (Fila) correspondent of the Louisville Courier-Journal writes About a mile below where we first came upon the ereek, and two milés from where it empties into the bay, we reached tide water, and Jack told us to look cut now for ‘gators. Sure enough, we saw two monster old saurians lying out on the bank sunning themselves Fhey took the alarm, however, while we were vet a long way off, and plunged into the water. As we neared the spot we saw several others swimming in dif. ferent directions in the same hole, They all disappeared when they saw us, so we laid down our luggage and sat in the shade of a tree to await In a few minuteg onestuck his bead out of the water not more than thirty yards away whereupon Capt. 8S. gave him a charg of buckshot in the vicinity of the eye and ear. lle lashed the water into a foam in his gyrations and sank out of sight, probably mortally wounded Presently another one put his eye out of the water to look at us. He was near the opposite shore, perhaps fifty yards from where we sat. [1 let at him, and although 1 scored a palpable hit, did not kill him. A ‘gator always tells you, unerringly, whether you have killed or only wounded him. [i wounded. he plunges and thrashes around at a lively rate for a few seconds and sinks out of sight, but if killed dead. he performs about the same series of evolutions, turns on his back and dies, remaining on the top of the water. This is the time to go for him if youn wish te capture him, for he only lies on the top of the water fifteen to thirty minutes, when the air escapes from the lungs, and he sinks. It is very difficult, indeed, to kill them on dry land, nowadays, tor they are shot at so much that they are exceedingly wild. But whenever you flush one from the bank and he goes into the water, sit down and rest, and you may depend upon it you wiil have to wait but a few minutes before he will put his large black eyes out of the water and look sround to see if you are still there; then you have = Ene target for your rifle. The smoke had scarcely cleared away after my last shot, when athird "gator looked up near us and in- stantly caught a right-fielder in his optic that turned him over. We then supposed we had made it so warm fer them that no others would show them- selves for awhile. and started on down the stream. The captain and | resus, 20 had not yet started, called to us and said, ** Here's another 'gator!” I went back, and there, sure enough, was an old fellow, swimming along down th creek as unconcernedly as though he had never heard the report of a gun in his life. I waited until he came within about fifty feet of me, and then gave him one in the leeward eye. He turned two or three sommersauits, and stopped on his back with one forefoot sticking out of the water. We left him there as a warning to his kind not to tempt the deadly accuracy of a Stevens rifle. As we were now thoroughly sated with this class of sport, we returned home, How the Count Joannes Was Bouneed. The death of the Count .Joannes re- aalls an incident in the editorial room of the Boston Transcript some years ago, before the Count left Boston, and when the genial Dan. Haskell was editor of the paper. The Counts frequent visits had become a source of annoyance to Haskell and his associates in the editor. ial room, and but little respect was en. tertained by them for the numerous titles claimed by the Count, while his consequeniial airs and lofty style had become a positive bore. Rushing in late one forenoon, where Haskell, Fox, Dix and Whipple were scratching away for dear life at their respective desks, the Count slapped down a small slip upon Haskell's desk and asked in a loud and indignant tone: “Why was that item about me pub- lished in yesterday's Transcript 2" Haskell laid down his pen, and, rising to his feet, confronted the Count, who stood in a dramatic attitude with folded arms, and said, in his decided, matter of fact way : “Mr. Jcneg, leave this room (point. ing to the door), do not enter it again as long as you live; we are tired of you, and you may rest assured that as long ws I am editor of the Transcript your name shall never again appear in its columns except under the head of '‘Obit- Go!" The Count was so taken aback that he eyebrows, fixed kis hat more firmly upon his head, and strode majestically to the door toward which Haskell still pointed and van’shed behind it.
