It is the first great victory of the land league. All other igits, thus far, in behalf of Ireland have been but skirmishes. What I told our or- ganization in my circular last fall was that, if the Irish people could hold out during the winter, victory would surely come. The resig- Rationof Mr. Forster is the confession of the failure of the oid weapons so long used to crush the Irish people. It is the end of coer- ¢ion and the bezinning of freland’s being gov- erned by the Irish. I have no question that all this will end in self: t and the owner- ship of the land by the cultivators, whether this year or next year it matters fittle. It will surely come, and will come very soon.

What the new Policy will be comes to us vasuely, as yet, but it mast be acompiete opposite tothe policy which has been applied in Ireland during the past year. Instead uf coercion there must be conciliation; Instead of zoverning the country by the most odious of the English politicians, the practical government of the country must be as in Scotland, and surrender to the men Who, under republican institations, would be selected by the people themse To this the governinent of Ireland Is surely coming.

And then, when I am free once more, I can tryto please m mother (our acquaintance, as you are weil aware, has never pleased her), and in pleasing her I aar find I am doing a pleasant as well as @ wise thing for myself.” “Are you referring to Brougham Brown?” “T am referrigg to Brougham Brown.” “By heavens!” exclaimed Rick, seizing his — is foo much. Letty, good-by for- ever!” But Letty began humming an alr from “Pa- tience” drumming an accompaniment on the window-pane, and vouchsafed no answer. Rick rushed from’ the room. The humming and drumming ceased instantly, and the whitom per- former listened intently. Five minutes passed, and still the street door did not slam. ‘He is waiting forme to come outinto the hall and beg his partion, I suppose,” she said, with a defiant grimace, “but I won’t,” and she turn nto the window as the door shut with a bal And then she flung herself on the lounge, kicked off her slippers, and cried like a summer shower. Rick gone, and gone “forever”!—Rick whom she had loved so deariy, and who had loved her so dearly, for two long years. And why? Just because that silly, giggling Lena Varian, with her pale blue ‘eyes and straw- colored hair, had chosen to tell fibs about him. And shaking the tears from her lashes, she be- gan scolding herself as hard as she had scolded poor Kick. “The idea, Letty Lounsberry, of your believing that girl before him! What pos- sessed you? He did flirt a littie with her, that is true; but all men flirt a little with girls who persist in admiring them and flattering them. But he never gave her the little gold pig— your Christmas gift to him—never! How she got it [can’t imagine, but he would have ex- plained if you had given him a chance.” And then the absent mother, gone to Aunt Emory’s for a two days’ visit, came in fora share of Te- roach. “If she had only let our engagement e known. instead of insisting upon our wait- ing until Rick was twenty-one, and I had not been obliged to carry my engagement ring in my back hair, the only place where it is safe fromm Baby’s—Goodness gracious! Baby!” And Letty suddenly remembered that ever since Rick came in to make a morning call, knowing Mrs. Lounsberry was absent—poor fellow! he'd have staid ‘away if he could have foreseen his reception—Baby had been sitting alone in the dining-room in the middle of the big dining-table, surrounded by all the pickle and marmaiade jars and fruit cans and catsup bottles and jam pots out of the sto Toom. For it was the monthly house-cleani day. and the store-room fell to Letty’s share. the foreign help being gifted with too great a talent for smashing and breaking, to say noth- ing of an equally great talent for abstracting and devouring both sweets and sours. Letty sprang from the lounge, thrust her feet into “her slippers, and hastened where duty had been calling her for some- time. Baby sat, as good as gold, nursing a bottle of tomato sauce, snugly wrapped in a dish-towel, in the very spot where she had been when Rick’s ring summoned her sister to the door. Only one small flask lay broken on the floor, filling the air with the subtle fragrance of garlic. “That won't be mjssed,” said Letty. ‘Thank fortune, there is ‘no worse mischief done.” But the “thank” was searcely uttered when her eyes fellupon the last jar of the fa- mous peach marmalade, the secret of the ma- king of which died with grandmamma, and which was being carefully kent for Aunt Emory’s (Aunt Emory was an old maid worth thirty thousand dollars) birthday. There it stood directly in front of Baby, with more than half of itsthick paper hat torn off, and a yawning cavity made in its precious contents by little scooping fingers. ‘Oh, Baby, why couldn't you have taken any Jar but that?” asked Letty, reproachfully and dramaticaliy. But Baby evidently had no excuse to offer tor not doing so, for she kept on crooning to her bottle-doll, while her sister hastily fashioned an- other paper hat and tied it securely over what remained of the original covering. Then sald Baby, “Rick tiss I—nice Rick!” Oh, that 1s what he was doing when she fool- ishly imagined he was waiting for her to come and implore his forgiveness—bidding good-by to Baby. She might have known it, for he had always loved dearly. “Yes, Baby; nice Rick, good Rick. dear Rick; but, for all that, the ring he gave me goes back to him to-morrow unless I hear from him to- ae How dare he wish that we had never met?” But she did not hear from him that night, and Teleased the next day the little band of gold was from its hiding-place in her thick brown hair, and a too faithful ms it in Riek’s essenger placed hands as he left his place of business. But, ah! what a silent, sorrowful maiden wandered about the Lounsberry dwelling thereafter! what a list- less, weary voice repeated the nursery rhymes that Baby demanded fifty times a day! “No nice—no more,” said Baby, missing the merry tones and the happly laugh. Bat Mrs. Lounsberry was not atall displeased with the turn affairs had taken. Brougham Brown suited her much better as a prospective son-in-law than Richard pis tate One was a wealthy young brewer, the other apoor clerk In a counting-house. “Letty will soon get over it,” she said to Letty’s father, whose heart ached at thesight of his daughter's sad face. “A first-love disap- pointment is always hard to bear fora while. I thought I should have died when Ford married my cousin; but I didn't. lived to marry you, and I have a seal-skin cloak, and Mrs. Ford hasn’t even a jacket.” And so Brougham Brown, who was really a manly, generous, good-hearted fellow in spite of his beer and wealth, by the ma- ternal head of the house, began devoting him- self in the most ardent fashion to Letty; and she, seeing her mother’s pleasure thereat, and hearing no word from Rick, received his atten- tions in a passive, ive way. Three months ‘went by, and it was Aunt Emory’s birthday, and that eccentrio old lady had decided to divide it among the family, lunching with one portion, dining with another, and supping with a third. The lunch party was given at her sister Letitia’s (Mrs. Lounsberry), and some half & dozen old friends and some — relatives were ae —— feast. Letty, in @ Sea-green gown "a favorite gon, with a spray of pink hyacinths (Rick's favorite spring flower) in her hair, went quietly about welcoming the Brown fol- lowing her like the young man still near her, she raised the cover from and dipped a spoon into the last jar of grandmamma’s famous pesch marmalade (she had had it placed before her, trusting to be able to hide the mischief Baby had done), when somebody said, addressing her mother: -‘Have you heard that Bichard is going abroad for his health? given up his situation, and sails ‘0. They say he has failed fast lately.’ And the very next moment Aunt Emory fixed her poor ace. 4 “And so that is the last of the cel malade, is it?” said Aunt Emory. wantany.

Rick.” Never did any young lady so suddenly break through all the conventionalities of society, never did daughter so quickly forget the wishes of her mother, never did niece so unflinching! brave the displeasure of a thirty-thousand-dol- lar aunt, as did Letty Lounsberry the instant after she had red this note. ham,” she cried, looking at him with beseeching eyes, ‘I must see Rick. I must—I must. You will go and bring him to me, dear?” (It was the first time she had ever called him “dear,” and, alas! he felt that it would be the last.) For a moment he pulled his long mus- tache nervously. ‘We are not very good you know,” at last he sald. “Yes, Tknow. But Iam to blame for that Puree. “Forgive me, ham, but I must see Rick.” And the good fellow, hesitating no longer, turned from that imploring face, and, wit tugging at his heart-strings, went off to seek his rival. He found him, and brought him back to the girl they both loved. And what do you think Aunt Emory did?— Aunt Emory, who had declared over and over again that only as Mrs. Brougham Brown, Letty should inherit any of her money. “Left the house in a ion?” Not a bit of it. She Iaughed and laughed until she could laugh no gh “Now I shall have something new to tell folks,” she sald. ‘They must be tired and sick of my oldyarns. I’m sure I am. Love, gold pigs, jealously, and marmalade all mixed up together. It’s one of the funniest things I ever heard in all my life.” “I’m glad you think so,” sald Mrs. Lounsber- ry. “It don't strike me that way. What are they going to live on?” “Oh, Til look after them,” sald Aunt Emory; and her remark makes a very good ending to this real sweet story. MARGARET EYTINGE. Se eS THE CIGAR TRADE. A Talk with = Old Dealer in New ‘or New York Star interview. “Yes, domestic cigars are getting poorer every year, and the quality of imported ones on the market is likewise inferior to the grades ex- posed for sale a few seasons ago. There ig no perceptible decrease in price, either to dealer or consumer, and one cannot readily understand why the brands now on the market are so poor, Of course the tax is excessive on both home and imported products; but then, in spite of such duties, better cigars should be supplied for the price. Ten years ago, even, a comfortable smoke could be procured in New York for fifteen cents, a far better one than_can now be had for almost double the money. This was not owing to les- sened duties, but to the fact that there were not so many smokers, and that better wrappers and fillers were used in the manufacture, and that a cigar was seldém exposed for sale until it was thoroughly cared. Now, however, all ischanged, and one-half of the domestic cigars are smoked before they have had time to take on a sweat.” ‘The speaker was an old cigar dealer, and the above plain talk was addressed to the Star re- porter, who had invested in a cigar with a for- eign name that draws as hard as a canal boat. As the weed had been purchased over the deal- er’s counter, he felt in duty bound to say some- thing by way ot apology. By degrees the scribe led him to speak about the tricks of the trade. “The majority of cigars,” said the dealer in smokers’ articles, “are flavored nowadays. This expedient is resorted to in order to conceal the inferior quality of tobacco used in the manu- facture. A decoction of opium and rum will impart a delicious scent to the tobacco, and also cause it to burn quickly. They are hurtful, how- ever, as every smoker knows. After smoking a half-dozen such alleged Havanas in a day, the brain and lungs seem disordered ; the tongue is burned and swollen, and tiny blisters appear in the mouth. No matter how poor the tobacco, there would be no such injurious results were it not for the drug used in its manufacture. When a man gets hold of an honest Havana in the present generation, he experiencessomething akin to a foretaste of Paradise.” “Imported cigars were never in greater de- mand,” said a large wholesale dealer in import- ed goods to the reporter. ‘Henry Clays and Reinas are still the favorites, and command all the prices from $75 to $250 thousand. A fair cigar can be furnished for $120 a thousand, but if a person desires a good article he must of ne- cessity pay a higher ilgure. The grades which are most indemand are those that can be sold over the counter at 15 cents singly or two for 25 cents. ‘Straight tens’ and ‘three for a quarter” rades are usually domestic cigars bearing Span- names. Key West, fair article, range from $75 to $125 a thousand. There is no denying the fact that imported brands are inferior to the Importations of ten yearsago. There is 80 great a demand for them that the quality ot tobacco is hot nearly so fine; and then, again, there are more machine-made goods put on_ the market. Many of the manufacturers make their cigars at home from imported tobacco; but if devoid of flavoring the average smoker can discern the fraud, for no matter how fine the tobacco the cigar will not cure so evenly as it does in the tropics.” “While opium fs probably used by some man- ufacturers in the manufacture of cigars, we have never used a grain of it,” was the statement of @ manager of a large factory, in conversation with the reporter. “If a customer orders say 10,000 cigars of a special brand, and wishes them flavored, we put a little Santa Cruz rum in the bottom of the boxes and the flayor is obtained. Last season we manufactured 51,647,460 cigars and 5,158,180 cigarettes, and all without a par- ticle of opium. Iam opposed to the tenement house cigar, and we sell none that are turned out in such places. They are not clean and are com of inferior tobacco.” “We are distributing about 2,000,000 cigars month,” said another mat . “This includes both domestic and impo goods, but mainly the former. We make two great specialties, a five-cent and a ten-cent cigar, and can furnish as good a domestic cigar for $85 a thousand as can be imported for $110 a thousand. The half- dime les, which are sold to the frade at $40 @ thousand, are most in demand. One of our brands, “No. 5,” is selling at the rate of 1,000,000 month. We use no opium In any shape what- ever. The cheapest goods ‘on the market are quoted at $11 a thousand. They are from Penn- sylvania, made by darmers, and in this city by apprentices, from adulterated goods. We very seidom get hold of a good article that has been smuggied. Dealers in such goods usually have distributing ies of their own, and are afraid to offer them fo responsible dealers.” The manufacture of cigars in tenement houses has become a great in in New York. The cost of production is from $1 to $3 less per thou- sand, and the oigar, if made from a fair grade of , will smoke almost as well as those turned out in first-class factories. As a rule, however, the goods used are poor, and nocare is exercised in the wrapping. Opium and poor lquor is freely applied to the leaf before being rolied, and the cigar is thus made to burn freer and is given a stimulating taste. Many of the tenement-house products are reeking with in- fectious disease, and there can be no doubt but what sickness is In many instances disseminated in this manner. Inferior grades of See are also doctored with opium, and work much harm to their consumers. catching fish on the Wicomico. fishermen always procure a couple of poles and tte one to each end of their nets and stick them in the desired place in the evening and let them remain till the next morning.
