bush lay the shortest path, and knowing,
how did he pick his way through the
tangled undergrowth, fallen trees, brush,
ravines and pitfalls? A horse is generally
accorded superior intelligence, and diff
cult as the feat appears, it looks easier
than that of flock of ducks which was
published few weeks ago: In tight
fy-closed crate they were carried from
one farm on Long Island to another
twenty miles away. They could not
possibly see the landmarks along the
route taken. But they found their way
home again, and, as their wings were
clipped, they had evidently walked the
entire distance. Judge if the farmer did
not feed and care for his returned feeble
quacking friends.
How animals get home becomes more
difficult to answer when one reads about
kitten six days old, taken from one
part of London to another, which got
home safely, escaping the countless
dangers of crowded streets, or of another
youthful cat carried in flour bag across
the bush in Australia, and that turned
up at its birth place the next morning,
or of similar instances which might be
multiplied ad in6ritum. 1t is a puzzle
that theories do not elucidate, and that
every fresh illustration deepens.-Inter'

A FEW WORDS FROM
CAPT. R. W. BONNER,
A WELL-KNOWN
CITIZEN OF MACON, GA.

In August, 1884, nearly three years ago, my son.
who was ut that time living at Clinton, Ga. came
over 10 see me with the sad intelligence that his
wife was in the last stages of consumption and
that her physician had pronounced her case hopc-
less. / went Immediately over, and l felt that
nothing could be done. She was coughing and
splitting incessantly, and at times would discharge
from her lungs large quantity of pus or matter
could not sleep or retain anything on her stom-
ach, and was, in fact in the last stages Of the dis
ease. This was about the time you began TO sd-
yertise Brewers Lung Rcstorer, and my son
expressed n desire to give it to his wife, two or
three bottles were procured and with scarcely
vestige of hope We commenced giving 1t TO her in
small doses, gradually increasing the quantity un-
til the prescribed dose was reached She began to
improve after few doses and continued to do so
daily, until she was finally restored to life and
health and is to-day perhaps in better health than
ever before. She Is subject to colds, but few
swallows Of Brewers Lung Restorer (Which she is
never without) relieves her Immediately. ! con-
for which she is indebted to Brewers Lung Re-
storer My son Is almost mOnonianiac on the
subject OF Brewers Lung Restorer and never let's
an opportunity pass where he thinks such mcdi-
cine would be required, that he does not speak of
it in most glowing terms. Not long sir &C North
ern gentleman on his way TO Florida heard of this
cure and was induced by my son t. give it to his
invalid wife, and she was cured Us If by magic"

DRIFT Of THE CAMPAIGN.
Ben Butler the Central Figure of Queer
Scheme.
Special to the Philadelphia Times.

Special to the Philadelphia Times.
WASHINGTON, July 26.-Ever since
Cleveland's nomination Gen: Butler has
been the central figure of a scheme of
some sort which has given its projectors
extraordinary expectations concerning
him, Apart from the knowledge that
persons may possess of what is intended
and. how it is expected to. be accomplish
ed, certain things are obvious to all who
have paid attention to Butler at Chicago,
studied his revised platform and speech
published since, and specially the many
able, subtle and confusing editorials from
day to day on Cleveland, Blaine and
Butler in the New York Sun.. The par.
ticulars given and hinted az in the New
York dispatch printed in the Times on
Friday morning have been more or less
understood here for some time. The ex-
istence of an understanding, either for
mally entered iuto or implied, between
Butler, Arthur, Kelly, Dana and Blaine,
or Steve Elkins or Chandler representing
Blaine, well.informed and observing
persons have had little doubt about. The
confusing part is, how Butler can run
and not make Cleveland's election sure
if there was any doubt about it before,
unless these able and ardent politicians
are able to pool the votes cast for Blaine
and Butler respectively 30 as to make
them count surely against Cleveland and
for either Butler OF Blaine, according to
agreement, at tie counting: This, IN
deed, is the idea foreshadowed. The ex-
,ecution of it will teach politicians in gen.
eral something they did not before know

thought they might at any time drop out.
He has been taking Swift's Specific about
three months, and its effect has been Won

THE BOOM NOT BOOMING.


Passing from the mysterious to the real,
Blaine's cause is not advancing. His
supporters 90 about wondering why the
waters do not move, and expressing a
fear that they are not going to move
Six weeks after the nomination sees little
but disappointed expectations concern
ing Blaine's alleged popularity. dis
letter of acceptance with the masses
proved disappointing. If there was Lit.
Tie Jingoism in it the production had less
ring of battle about it. No keynote was
struck.> It contained no battle cry. NO
impulse was given. In word, the
Blaine canvass is defensive one ra!oer
than one of boldness and aggression,
which was promised. Some leaders by
their natural qualities and experience
cause things to move at their very touch J;
compel action an cooperation, and if
success be possible they will command 1t:
It is evident that this is not the kind OF
men who are managing Blaine's cam.
paign. Instead of rising in the face OF
difficulties they sink under them or
wander in dazed state, destroy the con.
fidence which otherwise would exist and
create a state of gloom instead Of the
hopefnlness essential to success. so tar
there is the evidence neither of magnet
ism nor special ability. Mr.. Chairman
Jones'. of the Blaine committee, is un-
ouestionably an able manager Of an iron
factory, Mr.. Steve Elkins is doubtless ex-
pert at planting mining stock of proble'
matte value, and their associates may
have ability for certain things, but none
of these gentlemen have as yet manifest
ed the ability to run Presidential cam
paign. If they really possess it sur
prise is in store for the desponding friends
of Mr., Blaine.

WHAT is TO BE DoNE7

Blaine Republicans have heard with
alarm that he has settled down at Bar
Harbor for the season, content to let the
canvass take care of itself so far as he IS
concerned, either satisfied that from
causes of which he alone has a knowl.
edge he will win or from causes which
are becoming obvious to all that his case
is hopeless. In the belief that it will be
better for Blaine to come forth and show
bimself an effort will be made to call
him out from his retreat.
In 1880, although the Garfield cam
paign at corresponding stage was pecu.
liar, it possessed certain interest and
had a life not seen now. There was
something redeeming to point to and to
expect. There was the Old Guard, head.
ed by Grant, with Conkling, the Gamer.
ons and their like for marshals. Would
they come forth and win the day :?
Everybody believed that if they did the
day would be won. The state of abey-
ance was one of life. And when the
question was answered by the Old Guard
itself taking the field in Ohio to keep it
to the close of the battle, retiring only
when the victory vas won, the canvass
was from that moment one of hope and
confidence.
What is there now or what is there
that is likely to be at all the parallel of
then to animate Blaine's canvass { That
there are number of things of an op'
posite tendency every one can see for
himself.
THE UNKNOWN QUANTITIES.
The unknown quantities are numerous,
the principal being the laboripg men,
whom Butler claims fer himself; the
Irish vote, which Blaine, as a twister of
the British lions tail, thinks ought to
belong to him, and which Butler lays
claim to by virtue of his being the cham.
pion of the anti-British policy as to the
tariff; the Prohibitionists, who arc large.
" Republicans, ard whose support OF ST..
John may take from Blaine voters 70 a
dangerous extent in Ohio, Indiana, Wis.
consin and even Iowa and Kansas aud
some other States. And there is the
question of the "morality of the candi-
dates" which the Sun continually argues
must be taken into the account. 1t ls q
new one in the sense it is brought up,
and what it may yet amount to it is hard
to say. 1t certainly is right TO take into
consideration the moral character of can
didates. The Sun says that Blaine will
not stand the test. There are indica'
tions of disposition to extend the ques-
ton farther. An increasing interest in
this direction is to be noted.
