Uyiteries of Tobacco.
Thoasand of Ream of Paper Puffed into
Mnoke
One of the mysteries of 2"ew York,
of hich vie have never seen in type an
ittcmpttd explanation, is: "What under
tne sun becomes of the enormous qnan
tity of this coarse brown wrapping piper
hich u-e everywhere see piled up to
the ceding in warehouses, or shying
across the tidewalk from truck to st re.
like Parthian arrows darkening the sun,
or perchanc; coming to the city from
miils in the surrounding country, loaa
ing whole trains of freight cars?" This,
surely, is a profound puzzle, which few
even arkong old residents can unravel.
But her is the answer: ( "Tell it not hi
Gath; pcblfeii it not in the streets ol
A keion.)" In brief, -ve have at this
port an enormo is export trade in straw
paper Detween New York and Havana,
here it enters in'o the manufacture of
tobacco. The trade can be reckoned
by thousands of ton?. Nv,t a steamer
leaves tl id port that dees not take out
trom 2.000 to 5,000 reams, or in occa
;ioul instances as high as 30,000 reams.
Bit very iew days have elapsed since a
-learner sailed with the quantity last
named. It was long since evident that
this heavy cxj.cn of paper, that, too.
all of a single dcicription, the coarsest
snd cheapest, could not be for or dinar
consumption. .No market could" posai
bly demand puch quantities, unless peo
ple were inordinate shoi pera, find did
nothing except run to the grocery for
smal packages. Tfce paper reierred to
sells at 2G cetts per ream ot 8 or 9
pounds, and when packed for export is
usually pressed into bales of 100 reams
each, it is taid that the exports are so
large that our entire domestic consump
tioa is scarcely equal to one-sixteenth
of the total shipped to "Cuba alone,
while additional quantities are in ce
mand fcr Brazil, Bermuda, etc., very
much of it, doubles, going into the
manufacture of cheroota ana cigarettes.
For this purpose, we are told, it tervc
admirably, the paper, under combustion,
leaving no residuum other than a pure
white ah. There is but one conclusion,
as remarked bj a leading dealer in the
trade, that the great bulk of this paper
:s converted into a gar a of the lower
grade, and when returned ucdercostoa
house brands, neatly boxed and fragrant
with illusive odors, readily commands a
sale. The peculiar manipulation which
straw paper uadergoes in process cf
conversion is ot course known only to
the iniuatcu. Bat it is well understood
that when saturated in the juice of to
bacco stems, and, perbapt, almost di
solved, the once desp'sed yellow reams
make a "filling" almost equal, if not
superior, to the genuine leaf. In fact
it is sometimes possible to detect, as we
are informed, the delicate film of paper
interlspped with leaves in the finished
cigir. or neatly folding the exterior. To
such a refinement of art hss this busi
ness been carried, that by the use of
machines rolled over the sheet of paper,
an almost perfect impress of the tobacco
leal is obtained, the peculiar "spots1
being pritted as on cahco. The waste
and refuse of factories in like manner
is carefully gathered, and, by inter
mingling with paper, once more acquires
body and consistency, so that in subse
quent use the votary of tobacco inhalea
it in his pipe, securing comfort and
solace, or takes it pulverized into mcS,
through the nostrils, imagining himself
transported in dreamy lassitude beyond
the cares and worriments ot this lower
life on a wisp of paper. Kmt Tork

Honest on the Sly.
I was talking the other day with a
man cf high character and position, but
ot a nature gentle and unasiuminc,
rather than sturdy or trenchant. He
was tilling me, with great ardor, the
best news that a man can communicate
with regard to his children, namely,.tbat
he was sure that his boys, who had
grown old enough for the test, had
proved themselves thoroughly honeit.
He did not use the term in any common
place or quibbling sense, :t had a full
and vital meaning. Tle talk turned
upon this matter of honesty, and its
extraoruinary scarcity. It has been im
pressed upon my mind by the circum
stance that eince our casual meeting, I
was startled one morning by the an
nouncement, in the newspapers, of his
death. I remember tht my fr.end told
me that in his younger days, lon be
fore he had become a clergyman ot the
Episcopal Church, e was engaged in
a mercantile business in anotner city.
It was hi? place to attend to the paying
of certain charges or dutiej upon g ods,
and sometimes it was necessary for him
to correct mistakes that had been made
in the interests of the firm. This he
did as an incident to his orU, bat he
told me that he knew at the time that if
his honesty had been discovered by the
reputable house which employed him,
he would have loat his placer. I cannot
say that his own conscientiousness
shosld have carried him farther and madf
him face the issue with his employers,
because I do not know all the circum
stances. But the story is valuable a
illustrating a certain tone whlci is felt
by young persons employe! in inaay
business houses that show an unspotted
record to the w.r!d. Tht O.d Cabinet;

Froebel's Kindergarten Theories.
His whole method founded itself upon
the child's nature. A child is social,
therefore he must have corny mioni ani
not be left to the sc kuie of hishm;.
He is active and fond of miking -'seep
Lim busy, and help Lim to produce
things. He loves the erth give hini a
garden pi'ch. He is an artist give
him musi. , imitative action, and otuer
appropriate means of expression. He
is curious teach him to think and dis
cover. He is religious lead him to
trust m God. On this last he said:
"God trust, rock-firm God-trmt, ha
died out of the world. Tne K.uiergir
ten shall brins; it back so that the next
generation shall be G)ds children."
Here is work for a child, not against
the grain, but with it; not In violation
of God's law in the child's nature, bjt
in loving obedience to it. Instead ot
punishing the lad who makes pictures
upon his slate, the loving Kindergarten
master puts him to making pictures, and
gently shows him how to produce with
his fingers the pictures that rloit in his
brains. Instead of rsbuking his curi
osity and constructivene's, the Keilbiu
schoolmaster yokes them to his purpose.
Instead of checking the child's sweetest
impulse the impulse to play he conse
crates it. Jean Paul hu sua: "Piay
is the child's first poetry." It was a
wise and poetic saying of a post. Bat
Froebel was not a post, but a school -muter
and philosopher. He went
deeper, and said the Euprerne word
about play when he calle 1 it "ths rirst
work of childhood.' It is the child's
chitf business. Use play to serve the
ends of education you m-iy, hu: to d o
away with it is the unpardonable sinof

Henry Clay in the Supreme Court.
Reverdy Johnson had a rich fund ot
anecdotes and reminiscences of his
time. One of them was about Henry
Clay, when he made one of his power
ful arguments on a Constitutional ques
tion before the Supreme Court. The
Chief Justice and the Associate Justices
sat robed in their official black sur
plices, sedate and attentive. Alter hav
ing spoken about an hour, Mr. Ciay
paused, and Justice Washington (a
nephew of General Washington) availed
himself of the opportunity to indulge
in a pinch of snuff, which be rs;d im
moderately. Mr. Clay, observing this,
instead of proceeding, advanced grace
fully to the bench, -with bis thumb and
index finger extended, and helped him
self from Washington's box. As he
applied the titillating powder, he ob
ervtd, "I perceive that your Honor
sticks to the Scotch, and, stepping
back to his original position, he re
sumed his argument without the least
embarrassment. Such a step over the
barrier which separated the Court and
the bar in thoee days of decorum and
knee breeches created quite a senation,
and Xr. Johnson used to aay that when,
some years afterwards, Mr. Justice
Story told him the story, he added: "I
don't belieTe there is a man in the
United States who could have done that
but Henry Clay.' Wa&ingto Cvr.

Dr. Tynda-11 on Spontaneous Generation.
On Thursday last Dr. Tysdail read a
paper before the Royal SocietT "On the
Optical Deportment of the Atmosphere
with reference to the Phenomena ! Pu
treraction and Infection,' and surprised
and cratined his hearers by cimmuni
cat.ng much more than was conveyed by
hi j title. For he showed, by brilliant
experiments, that spontaneous genera

that if Eolations open to the air soon
swarm with Jiie, it is because they hav
been impregnated by living particles

was given Ly Dr. Tynd all's researcbe';

f&cts that filtering through cotton-wool
clears the air as tfTrCtually as fixe; and
that air thus pur.uVj will cot transmit
light. The :riasi chimber filled with
'ie punhVd air remain; dark, even when
p'.jced in the trJCK of a concentrated
beam of light. There is nothing to rt
fleet or scatter the light; and it may
now be accep'eJ as an axiom that sir
which has lost its power of scattering

ducing life.

time aware of the fact that air which

Defects in Works of Genius.
I have thought an interesting and In
structive cjsay miht be written on ;he
defeers in t ie celebrated works of geni
us. Not for the mere purpose of point
ing them out, Heavun forbid! but to
show of how little consequence they are.

trite and unnecessary ; but every once in

or Milton or Jl.chaei Angelo, or Raph

but whose artistic personality tae world

fact is, that there are few or no perfect
wvrks of art; and tne granJer the work
in physical and spiritual dimensions, and
in its impression upon mankind, the
more apt are defects to show themselves.
In a sense, surely, the mighiies: creation
we know anything about the thing that
we call Creation itself is full of and
loaded down with defects. Minds that
dwell unddly upon the defects, great or

Originality.
It is only the shallow critic who mis
takes the meaning of the phrase origi
nal, and is forever detecting quotation
or plagiarism. There are more parallel
passages, and there is less plagiarism, in
the worll than mest persons dream of.
Tne -simple fact is, that ail truth is one;
whoever has the genius to break through
the shells of things and make his way
into their Terv center and heart, brings
back the same report as his deep-seeing
neighbor. Tne character of the report
varies with the individual: but some
times it happens to rarj little or not at

the party who accompanied him have

would doubtk-u tend to threw new liht
on the origin of tcese paople. Tb
bouaes were quite snail, from 8 to 12
iet m diameter, and located about 10
feet apart. Tney existed in regular rows,
with streets and avenue running through
tie city at right angle and at prop.
distaneoa apart. The foundations cf the
dwiiiioga, if not ths entire structure,
were made of a kind fcf adobe brick, of
a r&d cyler like medera br.ok, but o.
co&rwr material. The brick, specimen
of whish were brought up here by Capi
Whitely, have traaaverse holes passics

tilators to the dwellings, aa, the brick
beitg laid flatwiie ia the wall, the sides
of the housi would be thereby pierced
with a multitude of holes for tne admis

Another aad more probable theory is,
that the bricks in a malleable state were
pieroed with rouad sucks for the more
readily h&ndliag and burning, and the
ticks having burned oat, leave the im
picdaion of their form, in the shape of a
hole. The sites ot these accisut habita

lake or marsh, whish at teas remote
period may have oer lowed its baaka

this time by the indefatigable antiquar

of a goure-ahapc. There are also rud
trowels and tools used for fashioning
ir.d ornamenting the pottery, aad whet
stones for bbarpeaicg the stone axe, and
other instrcmeata in use. But the faa
tastic character of the ornamentation c:
