» OPENING OF THE NEW TOBAC
CO YEAR.
Wo are fairly entering upon the new
tobacco year. In somo parts of the
• bright belt" the markets ase already
crowded with new stool 7 , aud daily sales
, aro heavy. Oxfoid, Durham anl Hen
derson arc having unusually heavy
( breaks, while other markets in the Dan
ville section will open up the eouiing
week. The opening of this uew tobac
co year i« watched with something of
r unusual interest.
I'rioes have started off very high. In
" most sections tho Icef is of very fine
quality, for which there is a strong de
, maud. Suuiepartiee have oried out
again a* the opouing as a bad omen, and
prodioted another last year's dileuiuia
bcfi re the season close*. Suoh prediolions
are generally used for effsot, but usually
fail in the end. There are alwayß some
persons in the trade who havo axes to
grind, aud try to do their grinding by
incessaut talk. They are always on the
alert to Ukc advantage of any favora
ble or unfavorable turns in the tobacco
market, but never speak hopefully of its
futuro.
Just ot this juncture, when the mar
ket for the new year opens brightly, we
heat the croaking of these all-knowing
prophets. 'I hoy say that a brisk open
ing always presages a Bad year, without
ever stopping to study the real honltli of
the market. We hope that the majori
ty of our readers aie too wise to listen
to such croaking. The new tobacco
year has opened briskly, and has douc
so on a solid basis. It has been many
years since a more favorable October
was known. The old crop, ncaording
to the best judgment, has been practi
cally sold, while last year at this time,
at lrast a third of the previous year's
I was in the hands of the farmers. We
! have before us 60 per cent of an aver
age crop of bright tobacco of the finest
quality. Tho West has 38 per cent, of
au average crop of pour quality. The
demaud for leaf is strong in all sections,
and yet we have these sujull crops to sup
ply this demand with fur the next twelve
months. Is it unreasonable that, the
new year kliculd open bright ? Is theie
any reason fur it to open otherwise ?
With all the facts before us can prices
rango otherwise than high for the com
iug year. The oa»e is so plain that he
who runs may read.— Southern Tobaoo
Journal.
TRUTH STRANGER THAN FIC
TION.
The Rev. Dr. Harcba, of Omaha, nar
ra'es the lollowing incidents as told to
biui by John l'ixon, of Dixon City, Illi
nois:
"General W infield Soott, then a
young man, was stationed at Fort Smel
ling, at thai day perhaps the remotest -
outpost of tho Uuited States. Whoa the
Indian outbreak known as the Ulaek
Hawk War was inaugurated, the militia
from Illinois prolfured their services to
aid tn ooLqqering the savages; aod, with a
a view lo mustering them into the ser- .
Tioes of the United Statet, two lieuten- I
ants were sent by Scott to the tbon vil- f
l.go of Dixon. One of these wa* a -ery t
cinating. good-looking, easy-manner- I
ed affable and fluent youag gentleman; 
the other, «n equally pleasant looking >
but exceedingly modest young man. On
tho morning when the mustering in wan
to take pluco a tall, gawky, slab-sided,
homely young mun, dressed in a home
made suit of blue joaus, presented him
self to the two lieutenants as the cap
tain of the recruns and was duly swoin
in. Tuis w»o he who a'terwards l#c nuc
the President of the United Stoles—the
lamented Lincoln One of the lieuten
ants, the modest one, was he who fired
the first gun from Sumter, Mnj. Andir
son. The other, and',who adminis
tered tho oath, was years the
President of the Southern Confederal,
Jefferson Dlvis."
Dr. 11. was in the book rooms of Car
lin Brothors, New York
ced to repeat these coincidences^tT a
friend. An eldorly geutlcman, who
was sitting near by, and was an auditor
arose and remarked that he was happy
to be able to confirm '.lie as given
by Mr. Dixon, as he was tho chaplain at
Kort Smelling at the time, and was fully
able to corroborate each statement. A
bystander then gave this additional tes
timony: That slr. Lincoln had often
been heard to sav that the time he
had ever taken the oath of allegiance to
tho Unitod States it wa? administered co
him by Jeff Davis.
WILL WE QUIT CHEWING TO
UACCO.
Then the cigarette has done a great
deal to put an end to the habit of chew
ing tobacco. The growth of tho cigar
ette practice in this country is, as they
ssy of western towus, "phenomenal."
The oonsumption of cigarettes has doub
led many times otor in the last fifteen
years. Aboat sere* cut of every ten
boys who are growing up now smoke cig
arettes. And after a boy has smoked
cigarettes a few years he not only has
no taste for tobaeoo ia any form, but lie
lias no constitution left to stand chew
ing tobaceo. It is curious bow boys
will take to cigarettes. I believe it is
very largely because fuss that is
made about them. It has got to be the
nomuion opinion that oigarctte smoking
is tho most injurious practice known
That is just why boys adopt it. It
makes them an object of awful interest
to other boys and girls. It is soothing
to a boy's foolish pride to know that poo
pie have marked him out as one who is
rushing with frightful temerity to early
destruction. Whether that is the cause
of it or not, it is perfectly certain that
more and more cigarettos are being sold
every year and less chewing tobacco.—
Southern Tobacco Journal.
THE SECRET OF BOOMS.
A booui always originates with a
few persons. They have to fight with
discouragements, but if they tiersjvere
they will always succeed. It is not
often that they are assisted at first by
older men thai have capital. But if
they persevere these will ooiuo iu good
time. The secret of booms is combina
tion. If but few inon attend public
meetings held in interost of the material
progress of a place, there will be no
boom until thiugs arc changed in this
rogard. If men leave their own busi
ness to atteud suoh meetings, the boom
is verp near. Aud when tho town
prosper s. the individuals prosper. So
when new enterprises are started. If
men generally say that they need all the
money they oan get for their own pri
vate bus.ncts, no cuitftiftiatiou is possi
ble. But if they arc willing to risk
money to help practicable.enterprise*) of
tho joint stock order, they will s«e
prosperity brought to their own
doors.
In a town not more than a thousand
miles away, they bad lest money ai d
mora public spirit than in any other
town that oould be found. All the
oitnens, however poor, attended all
public msctings and talked when tbey
eould do nothiog else. Every ouo
made saenfioos in his private busines to
help publie enterprises. The result is
suoh a wave of prosperity to-day as as
tonishes people both North aud South.

A FROG STORY.
Speyiag of traveling on Sunday. (
am reminded of a good thing 1 hoard on
J odge Colquit, father of Senator Colquit.
He was a Methodist preacher, and a
good one, too. He used to go to courts
on Sunday, and to ease bis conscience
he always stopped il he came across a
church on his way, aud sometimes preaoh
od. Ou one occasion ho stopped at a
i { Hardshell Baptist Church. When lie
■ ! went in the preacher was belaboring the
, different denominations other than his
■ | own. He at length got tho Methodist
■ , (of course I..4*didn't know Judge Col
q'lii). He «aid tlioy reminded liiui of u
i ; tree frog. They get on ona limb and
■ they said higher, and thon get ou anotli
'| er limb above and they say higher, uud
. thui. they go on till they get to the top,
I und down they couic kcr-flop, and bretb
. rcn, that's what they call tailing from
grace. When ho was done he said if
i there was anybody present that wanted
, to spenk he'd be glad to bear from them.
Judge Colquit arose aud thanked him for
the privilege of speaking; said the broth
er's illustration of the tree frog reminded
hint of anothei sort of frog in Southern
Georgia. You may wald along the
creek and .shake a bush, and you'd hear
something go ker-dip as It struck the
water, and seemed to say, as it went
under, safe. Then after awhile you'd
sec the same frog ciawling out on a rock
in the middle of the stream, and chang
ing his voice, be would sat, "Gim-m«
the jug—giiu-me the jug."
The Baptist brother admitted that he
got him)on the frog story.— Lift recol
lections in Wcsleyan Advocate.
WHEN THE MOON CHANGES.
During a long storm persons who
are well versed in weather lore are of
ten heard to console themselves with
the prediction that there will be a
change of weather when the moon
changes. Nasmyth and Carpenter
characterize as a popular error in its
most absurd form this belief that a
gradual turning of the moon's fice to
ward and away from the sun could, at
oortain points, upset the existing con
dition of our atmosphere, generate
clouds and pour down rain. In Eng
land (and the same may be said of
America) the weather changes about
every three days, and there is a chango
of the moon every seven days, no that
•uauy coiuoidunts must occur. Those
who believe that "the moon rules tne
weather" always credit such coinci
dences to lunar influences. But the
theory is untenable unless it applies to
every oase, and unless the same effect is
always produced by the same cause.
To suppose that a chango of the moon
will turn dry weather to we', or wet to
dry, indiscriminately, is the merest
childishness, and contrary to all ineteor
ologiual —Philadelphia In
quirer.
CULTIVATING COFFEE.
l>r. W, K. Huti'lilii.iin in the American Mag- 1
Ixina,
There is needed a rich soil, plenty of
water and perfect shade; for tho coffee
plan' cannot staud direct suurays any
more than coll. Just before the rainy I
season, seeds arc planted in peculiar
diagonal 1 lies, so as to give about
ninety trees to the acre, and given over
to a farmer's oaro for five years. He
at once plants banaua trees beside them
which answer a double purp.ise of sha
ding, the tonder growth and of producing
quick returns. Meanwhile, the slower I
growing bucarc, is planted, and by
the time the coffee is large enough to
bear, is reudy to shild it for life. ' The
owner now takes posession of his estate
and it begins to yield, continuing for
thirty years or more, with an overage 1
annual product ol ten pounds to a tree
About the middle of March it is in full i
blosioui, bearing a pretty, daisy-shaped
flower, with half a dozen lanceolate
leaves and a delicate vanilla perfumo.
The fruit or berry, containing two cof
fee oeoui lying face to faco like ohes
nuts in a burr, ' ripens early in autum,
when it is picked husked, washed, sort
ed according to size and quality and
sent off to market in sacks of from 126
to 130 pounds.

POISONED BY CIGARETT. S.
Walter Pierce, a young man of sev
enteen, whose home is at Gloversville,
had a close call tho other day. He ii
addicted to smokiug cigarettes, and
•ook advantage of his visit to this city
to enjoy himself to his fullest capacity
amoking several packages a day. Of
late he has oomplained at times of feel
ing drowsy, and tho'lgbt the cigarettes j
did not agree with him. Tne scqusl |
shows that they did. Yesterday after 1
breakfast he smoked about fifteen, and '
then went into the parlor of his aunt's
bouse sn Central avenue to lie down. ;
When called for dionor he was found |
in an unconoious state, with his body ,
perfectly rigid. The fiightened family |
called in Dr. Sobiill, who recognized bis
i symptoms, and after working over tho

PLUCK AND LUCK.
Pluck and luck are wonderfally dif
ferent affairs. Luck is a delusioa. We
cannot learn by luck; we oannot aequire
anything worth knowing by it; it ia alt
imagination. l'luck is a quality «f
character worth possessing.
The boy or girl who waits on laak for
success will wait long. On tbe atber
hand, all who have pluck will either suc
ceed or make a dignified or etcuaable
failure. It is not pleaaant to fail of
success in anything that we attempt,
but better far something good attempt
ed even if it be not obtained, than tbe
idle, aimless waiting for a shower of
good fortune that may never fall. Lite
is not a lottery wheeel dispensing fkv
ors without any regard to the deaerta of
the winuers. Life's beat priaea are
worked for, struggled far, toiled
for and all tbe sweeter when se
cured by reason of the toil and
struggle that have won thaw JCesy
won, little worth, might well be a prov
erb. We do not generally appreciate
wbat it has eeat us nothing to sec are.
Let as rot be afraid ot effo/i and puab,
but jheerfully put our shoulders well te
our load m life. Having sat eoue goad
aim bofore us, let us work with pluck
and pcrseveranoe, with push and pa,
tiunoc, for the object wo desire, We
shall be the better for tbe effort, even
