The aged general will probably not long survive the loss of the one whose companionship has been to him a help and cheer during all the years of his struggles from obscurity to fame. Dcni.VG the last fiscal year the tobacco tax yielded over $:50r000,000 of revenue. A th! tax is a direct burden upon the producer, why not begin the work of re ducing the revenue by miking tobacco growing and manufacturing free, like the growing and manufacturing of wheat, for instance? Certificathm have been given to Stockbridge, in Maryland, and Coleman, in Louisiana, who were republican candi dates for congress in their respective dis tricts. There was no reasonable doubt of their election, but the democratic man agers demanded that certificates be with held from them. A part of the Bourbon conspiracy to steal the House from the republicans has thus been defeated. Dikfekino from every other state in the union, Nevada is falling off in her population. Admitted to the union in iyJ4, four years before Nebraska was admitted, she has now less than one twentieth part of the present population of this state. With the failure of its mines there is nothing in that mountain ous country to support a population. At the present rate of decrease it will soon be uuable to sustain a state government and the proposition is made to unite it with Utah.

Senate forth vitliafter the second .Monday in January, on which the electors shall give their votes. Herttion 2. That Section 141 of the Revised Statutes of the United States is hereby so amended ns to rtad as follows: "Section 141. Whenever a certificate of votes from any State has not been re ceived at the seat of Government on the fouilh Monday of the month of January in which their meeting shall have been held, the Secretary of State shall send a special messonger.to the district judge m whose custody one certificate of the votes from that State lias been lodged, and such Judge shall forthwith transmit that list to the scat of Government." Approved, October 10, 1888. The electors in all the States now have, therefore, for their instruction and authority a precise and consistent statute of the United States, superseding all State laws, directing that they shall meet and cast their votes on the second Mon day in January, and transmit the ccrtifi cates and lists forthwith thereafter to the President of the Senate.

Smoking in a Ktub of a pipe is particu larly injurious, for the reason tliat in it the oil is stored in a condensed form, and tho smoke is thereforo hirhly charged with the oil. Sucking or chew ing the stub of a cigar that ono is smok ing is a serious mistake, because tho nicotine in tho unburned tobacco dis solves freely in tho saliva, and is ab sorbed. Chewing" is on tliia account the most injurious form of tho tobacco habit, and tho use of a cigar holder is an improvement on tho custom of holding the cigar between the teeth. MISCUIEF OF CIGARETTES. Cigarettes are responsible for a great amount of mischief, not because tho smoke from tho paper has any particu larly evii effect, but because smokers and they aro often boys or very young & . . . , men mo apt io use uiein continuously or at trequent uitervais, believing tluit their iKjwer lor evil is msigmhcant. Thus the r.orves aro under the constant influence of the drug, and much injury to the system results. Moreover, the cigarette smoker uses a very considerable amount of tobacco during the course of a day.

Iowa's prohibitory liquor law went into effect in July 1884. In that year her total vote was 373,877, a gain o SS.SOl votes over the total poll of 1880. This year her total vote was 401,1)44; showing a gain since 1884 of 23,757 Toters. Prohibition may perhaps have tended to decrease Iowa's groth in popu lation, but it cei tainly has not brought about the disastrous results predicted by its opponents. A gain of 130,000 people in four years in a state of kss than 2,000,000 Is doing well. Pawnee Republican. TnE Philadelphia Record says " it would be a good rule to admit no Ter ritory into the Union as a State with out sufficient population to entitle it to two members of the House of Represen tatives." But how about the number of votes which a Territory casts? This ought to eouut ior something in de termining its right to admission. Dakota casts far more vot?s for its Dele gate to the House cf Representatives than Georgia docs for its entire delega tion in that body. Georgia sends ten members to the House. If Dakota be not entitled to aduiiiiiuii as two states, then political fairness and decency de mands that some legal means be adopted whereby Fuch States as Georgia can be placed for awhile in the Territorial stage.

The United States law of February 1S37, provided that the electors of each State should lueeL sad cast their vots on the second 3fonday in January, but thi provision made it impossible for them to comply cither with the law of New York ("and presumably of other States) or with tho Revised Statute, which had previous ly been in harmony, and which provided that the certificates and lists of votes for President and Vice-President should be delivered to the President of the Senate before the firr Wednesday in January.

Thomas, Agt cussed. ISot much tiiect is obtained from tho use of tho drug in these vari eties of tho habit. Nkotino is one pf tho most powerful of the "nerve poisons" known. Its viru lence is compared to that of prussic acid. If birds be made to iulialo its vapor in amounts too small to be measured, they are almost instantly killed. It seems to destroy life, not by attacking a few, but all of the functions essential to It, begin ning at tne center, tho heart. A signifi cant indication of this is that there is no 6ubst.mco known which can counteract its effects: tho system either 6iiccumbs or survives. Its depressing action on the heart is by far tho most noticeable and noteworthy symptom of nicotine poisonifg. The frequent existence of what is Known as "smoker s heart in men whoso health is in no other respect disturbed is duo fo this fjict. AN EXPERIMENTAL OBSERVATION. In an experimental observation of thirty-eight boys of all classes of society and of average health, who had been using tobacco fMr periods ranging from two months to two years, twenty seven showed severe injury to the con stitution and insuflicicnt growth; thirty two showed the existence of irregular; of tho heart's action, disordered 6t: . aclis. cough, and a craving for tdcol.; ! thirteen liad intermittency of the puL' and one had consumption. After thr. had abandoned tho use of tobacco, wit1 six months' time one-half were free fi w.i their former symptoms, and the remain der had recovered by the end of the year A great majority of men go far be yond what may be called the temperate use of tobacco, and evidences of mjury are easily found. It is only necessary to navo some record ex wnat tho general health was previous to tho takjng up of tho habit, and to have observation cover a long enough tune. The history of to bacco ui tho island ot iew Zealand fur nisljcs a quite suggestive illustration for our purpose, ana oaa on a large scale, When Luropeans first visited New- Zealand they found in the native Maoris the most hneJv developed and jowerful men of any of the trioes inhabiting the islands of the Pacmc. Since tho intro duction of tobacco, for which tho Maoris developed a passionate liking, they have from this cause alone, it is said, become decimated in numbers, and at the same time reduced in stature end in physical well being so as to be an altogether infe rior typo of men.
