The Uss ox Tobacco.
Kn. I'litMhii: In the last Issue of yonr
valuable paper 1 notice an article on the
hnbltol using tobacco, but ou did not do
J ustico to the hu bjct ; you d Id not say enough.
I think that the e II ot using tobacco will
uver bo arrested until the press tako hold
of the matter. The use of tobacco is poison
ing our system; noiel wretched without it,
we have got accustomed to the use of the
weed; want our aystem stimulated to sucfh a
pitch that If kept so no man could live but
tor a short time; the blood would clog In the
veius-; the heart will llutter without any reg
ulation, would beat regularly for perhaps
half a dotu strokes, then would jump and
llut'eraudsink away, as though it would
stop entirely. There may ba some who do
not foel as here described, but let me tell you
that you are preparing yourself tor an early
grave. You oannot use tobacco with impu
nity. Why commit sulolde? Secoudlv; the
Use of tobacco makes us poor; no one lists
less lh-n twelve dollars' worth ol tnb-tcco in
a year; tUttputat interest, and the money
used lor the jveed the next year putalinter-
eit, and so on,'there would be more money
iu the little Hah of the land, or, in other
words, money wojld bs where it ought to
be.ong. Too many of tu make money to
spend, that Is, we spend our money too soon
niter nuking it. Thirdly; the use of tobacto
lends to detrude our feelings. (3n to a school-
house, church, hall, or any place where a
le v mini aud boys (shame!) are congregated,
and ym will sea crpat tobacco (iiilds lying
around, to say nothing ubout the mouths of
lho"e thit chow the tllthy Wfed. h. n. si.
