"Gerrnan Syrup"

No other medicine in the world was
ever given such Il test of its curative
qualities at Bosehee's German Syrup.
In three years two million four hun
dred thousand small bottles of this
medicine were distributed free of
charge by Druggists in this country
to those afflicted with Consumption,
Asthma, Group, severe Coughs, pneu-
m0nia aud other diseases of the
Throat and Lungs, giving the Amer
lean people undeniable proof that
German Syrup willcure them. The re-
suit has been that Druggists in every
town and village in the United States
are recommending it to their Gus
toners. Go to your Druggist, and
ask what he knows about it. Sam
pie Bottles 10 cents. Regular size Is
cents. Three doses will relieve any
case.

The Sugar Crop.
GSt. Charles Herald

Notwithstanding the brilliant an
ticipations of our planters a few
months ago concerning the sugar crop
of this year, truth compels us to ad-
nit that the culture of sugar in Lou
isiana in 1877 has proved sad fail
ure. The late spring, the long dry
summer, the suddenness of the severe
frOsts before the cane was matured,
and other causes, have combined to
produce this unfortunate result. Some
planters, on being questioned, deny
their losses and boast of making good
crops, but this is wrong, for all prac-
teal men know that no planter has
realized according to his expectations.
In every case the calculations of
planters and overseers have fallen
short. This is a most deplorable con
dition of things. Many interested in
this flv0rite culture of southern Lou
isiana, led astray by calculations
based on the two previous years, had
incurred heavy expenses for improve
ments, etc, and gone in debt, who
now find that they come ont short.
This is q serious loss to them and their
New Orleans factors, and is calculated
to discourage the enterprise of our
people. The truth is, and it might
just as well be told, that the short
ness of our sugar season, the uncer-
tainty of our weather, the rate of
wages and manner of running our su-
gar estates, the removal of duties on
sugar into San Francisco, and the
chances that the great West will short
ly demand u material reduction of the
duty on this article, if not the entire
abolition of the dnty, makes the pros
pect of the sugar planter blue indeed.
Many of them this winter will fail
and carry with them their city factors.
In this melancholy state of affairs it
belOoves our people to seriously con-
slider their situation and begin to study
what products are suited to rich agri-
cultural lands; and to lose no time in
adapting them to what nature and
climate clearly demonstrate to be
profitable. Our genial climate and
rich soil are certainly fitted for many
products which are advantageous and
paying, and such products should be
studied and cultivated without un-
necessary delay, however strong may
have been our attachment for the rails
ing of sugar. The price of sugar and
molasses mt present in the large cities
of the Union would not justify per-
sistence in this branch of industry,
even if weather and climate suited.
Let us take time by the forelock,
cease to be foolish, study our true in
terests, and cultivate what nature in
tended.
