SHECUT, Ag?nt at Atlanta, Ga. EVEMM;. BT JAMES B.U?HON HOl'H. See the crimson clouds of evening Lattico-bare across tho blue Where the moon in pallid beauty. Like an angel gazes through ! Over all the winding river. By the fading sunset kist, Slowly rises up the vapor, In a cloud of ghostly mist While the Eve is slowly turning Its last grains of golden sand, What a holy quiot hovers Over all the drowsy land? There is now the spell of silence Of a silence culm and deep Over all tho placid water Where the blue mist seems asleep. And the vessels slowly gliding Down the river to the bay, Show on sheets of spreading canvass Tints which change from red to grey. AU is quiet save the murmur Of tue tide upon the bar ; See each little breaker playing With the image of a star ! And 'tis thus that human creatures 'Bowed with agc, or fresh in youth. Give back brokenly the image Of eaUi grand, celestial truth. Now the bro?Bing silence deepens, And the scene is one of rest, While the wreckeu day drifts down gradually To be stranded in the West? on yon rugged coast of cloud-land High above tile village spire Ou its mighty purple headlands Audits crags all tipped with fire. All About Segara. The Havana correspondent of the Journal of Commerce, writing under date March 6th, gives the following interesting particulars about thc manu&oture and prices of Havana segars. He says: It has been a special object with me to try the various segars here manufactured, and to leam something about the business. I drove out, the other day, to the manufacturing estaolishmcnt ot Pnrtagas, the largest, and probably the finest, manufactory of segars in the world. Their repu? tation is co-extensivo with the use of Cuba segars. It is, of course unnecessary to de? scribe the method of making them. Every boy has seen this done in every town. But the great care shown in the selection of tobac? co, the larger portion being raised on their own ?lactations, and the exceeding skill of the manipu i fcion and the rolling, which gives such beauty to ti e cigar, entitle them to their high rank among the manufacturera of the world. The tobacco is placed in large rooms where it remains until it has undergone a thorough process of fermentation. " The wrappers are divided into three classes, accord? ing, to fineness, and give the number to the several grades of segars known as ni's ts, seconds and thirds. The beauty of the leaf selected for wrappers of the firsts, especially for the highest priced segars, in bsyond praise. The price hst of the Par tigas segars is a curiosity. The highest price marked ia for Celestiales at $500 per thousand; ?ext aro tbe Salomones, at $400; next the Napo? leones, at $300, $150 and $140. The Imperiales, Embajadores, Cazadores and Rothschilds range from $110 to $180. The lowest priced segar on their list is the Londres third, at $33. The very ' 1 ugh priced segars are all large, weighing from - Lwenty to twenty-two pounds per thousand. They ure made with great care, and rolled slowly and - cautiously. The best Londres segar of the P?rta? las cost ip58 per thousand, and their best Brevas cost $50. The Regalia Brit?nica, first, second and uhird, $100, $90 and $30. The Londres weigh near? ly fourteen pounds, the Regalia Britannica nearly nineteen, and the Brevas eighteen pounds per thousand. Segars can of course he bought at cheaper rates in Havana than those which I have given. But tho certainty of a good segar enables the established houses to demand high prices. The best tobacco or Cuba is grown in the western part of the island, and it is remarkable that the ?ame fact is true of the plant as of the vino in Prance, that tue soil seems to vary without any visible indication of the reasens. Plants growing on one line of soil produce tho most ohoico ami valuable tobacco, while those on the ground ton feet distant arr of common and inferior quality. The transfer of seed makes no difference. Of . . ?ourse, soil producing the finest leaf is of very a ..high value. It is nature's laboratory fitted for its " work, and no scientific agriculture can imitate it ? or produce tho same results. lam unable to procure the statistics of the ex? port of segars from Cuba. The amount is enor? mous, but the amount consumed here is also (mormons. Every one smokes, and smoking is al? lowed everywhere. They say that when a firo breaks out m Havana the engine companies rush io Ute spot, and begin work by forming a line and lighting their segars. True or not, I can affirm from a dozen examples that in stores and shops of ill kinds, when you ask for an article tho clerk will deliberately take out his cigarette case and ask Jon for a fight, if you happen to be smoking, be? are he answers your question. I have found very tine segars hore selling nt {dices as low as $15 a thousand. In few instances, owever, can these be obtained uniformly in any. luge quantities, or from year to year. The Escii Lipios manufactory tarns out very fine tobacco, fully equal to any other in quality if not in elegance of workmanship. The old Cabanas house main? tains its ancient reputation. There are hundreds cf factories, large and small, and it is not at all tmcommon to find segars at ten for a dime which are as good as those for which you pay a dime . 2 each. But it will not do to depend on such pur? chases. All the segars for sale here are fresh, and it is difficult for even an experienced smoker from tho fiUtes to ^select here. It would be impossible to find segars in Havana which are old and dry. And ' here permit me to remark that smokers would do . : : better, always to uso fresh segars. Thoy ore better in flavor, and produce less effect on the nerves oven when they are stronger sogars. A dry segar . baa lost much of its distinctive character, and it is only poor segars which improve by age, by grow? ing mild and flavorless. After a tolerably thorough search in Havana, and a filial of all kinds of segars, I am convinced that the best advice which can be given to Americans, desir mgto purchase first-rate segars for their own use, its to recommend them to send for Partagas segars. If they wish a small segar let them send for Ope? ras, at $50, and for a large and heavy after-dinner segar, Drivas, at the same price. Tho Londres, at $53 for the firsts, $43 for tho seconds, and $33 for the thirds, are all good, and a medium-sized r segar. They are very sure to have good segars who make up their mind to pay the oxpense and take these. lhave thus far said nothing of the Cigarette, or Cigarillo, which is smoked universally hero by male and female natives, arid which is beginning . to be us edin New York more than formerly. I he - Honradez manufactory is the largest here, and in the world. I visited it the other day, and was amused tc find that they do everything there ex? cept make cigarettes. They make their own boxes ana barrels, cut the paper, print the labels, litho? graph the ornaments for packages, cut and pro eire the tobacco, and then send it out to be rolled to cigarettes by any one and every one. Thousands i of persons are thus employed. You will scarcely see a porter at the door of a house in Havana who is not busy making a httle money by roll?r^ ciga~ ettes. The paper and tobacco are furnisln.l by the factory, and eui returning the work the rr an', woman -or child is paid ab the window ofter tho work is inspected and approved. But I am very c .n fident that there is better tobacco in the world for cigarettes than is grown in Cuba. There is no to? bacco here flt to smoke in a pipe, and the best to? bacco for the pipe is generally the best for cigar? ettes. A mixture of Louisiana Penique with the best James River or Lynchburg smoking tobacco makes a better cigarette than anything in Cuba. "Latakir tobacco makes by far the finest. The sup Ply^from here is enormous, in Europe and in the I We frequently heard it Btated that Connect i cut wrappers are exported to Cuba for use hero. Many beueve it. lt is not true, and for the very good reason that no such importation is allowed here. It is not at all probable that a segar ever left Cuba which was rolled in anything but a Cuba wrapper or made of anything but Cuba tobacco. _ RICH PEOPLE.-Some time since I saw a printed list of Borne people in New York whose incomes seemed enormous. As wealth is a subject so in? teresting to Americans, I will refer to a few rich people who have lived or aro now living in Europe. ?Tis said that the revenue of the Marquis of West? minster, England, is ?10,000 a day. His proportv ia valued at ?105,000,000. The late James Morri? son, of London, left to his widow an annuitv of ?10,000 a year, a legacy of ?5000, tho residence in Upper Harley street and Basildon; to his son Charles, ?1,000,000, including the estates of Bcrks boro'? Middlesex, London, Goring, as well as Islav; to his son Alfred, ?750,000, including estates in Wellsboro'. Hampshire, Glenmorganshire, and all articles of virtu and art at Forthill; to his son Frank, ?300,000, including estates in Ker Surrey and Sussex; to his son Walter, ?300,000, including four estates in the West Riding, Yorkshire; to his son George, ?300,000, including estates in Buck? inghamshire md Oxfordshire; to his son Allan, ?800,000, ?icluding estates in Suffolk and Essex; to his three daughters, ?50,000. His business in Force Btreet was transferred to Mr. Charles Mor? rison for ?350,000. The word 'including" seems obscure. I think it should have been written "ex? clusive of the money." The whole estate was valu? ed at ?20,000,000 sterling, nigh $100,000,000. A young Count Solytikof, attached to tho Rus? sian Embassy (London), married ir August last the daughter of a citizen of flloscow, possessing gold and copper mines in Russia. His fortune ia valued at four hundred millions of fiancs, or say eighty millions of dollars, calling five francs a dol? lar. This ladv is the only daughter of Mr. Jacolitf, and will inherit that immense fortuno. Mr. J., who resides in Paris (it is said), desires that his son-in-law should live away from Paris. Mr. J. has purchased for Mr. S. a princely residence m London and St. Petersburg. The Count will havo twenty or twenty-five millions of fiancs annual revenue.] COMMERCIAL. Exports.
