Prof. Causing, the celebrated physiolo.
gist. Several days ago, John Causing, q
young man of promise, married Chinese
woman: When the Professor heard OF

never again: should the worthless fellow
find shelter under the paternal roof.
Several days afterwards the son came
lshome, bringing hisswGfe with him. Un-
Observed, they entered Che parlor. When
the old gentleman entered, not suspect
ing his sons return, he was shocked BY
az avalanche of Indignation.

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

In August. 1881, nearly three years ago, my son,
who was at that time living at Clinton, Ca. came
over to me with the sad intelligence that his
wife was In the last stages Of consumption and
that her physician had pronounced her case hope
less. I went Immediately over, and 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 orretain anything on her stom-
ach, and was in fact in tho last stages Of the dis
ease. This was about the time you began TO ad--
vertise Brewers Lung Restorer, and as my som
expressed desire to give 1t to his wife, two or
three bottles were procured and with scarcely q.
yestige of hope we commenced giving 1t to her In
small doses, gradually increasing the quantity
til the prescribed dose was reached. She began tc
improve after few doses and continued to do 50
daily. until she was finally restored to life and
ever before. She Is subject to colds, but few
sw lllows of Brewers Lung Restorer (Which she is
never without) relieves her Immediately. con-
slider her restoration to perfect health niracls,
for which shs Is indebted to Brewers Lung Ee-
storer My son is almost mononlaniac on the
subject Of Brewers Lung Restorer and never lets
an opportunity pass where he thinks such medi-
cine would be required, that he does not speak Of
1t In most glowing terms. Not long sirce North
ern gentleman on his way to Florida heard Of this
cure and. was induced by my son to give 1t to his
invalid wife, and she was cured as If by magic"
Brewers Lung Restorer contains no opiates.

AS far as the country is concerned,

difficulties resting with the people, who
Mek neither the energy nor intelligence
required for utilizing the natural advan-
sta9es of climats and soil, with which they
are surrounded. The great difficulty
lies IN the adoption; Of la mistaken policy,
nndst the influence of the high price
which cotton commanded after the late
War, and the disorga aDized, migratory
character of free negro labor. The idea
thRt Sc was economy 70 produce cotton
almost to the exclusion of other farm pro.
ducts, relying Upon. the former to pur-.
chase supplies, took possession of the
people ten years ago, while high prices
prevailed, and 9 system of cropping on
shares and renting was adopted, which
has been difficult to discard. Under this
system, rotation of crops, in separate in.
closures, became almost IMPOSSIBLE, and
consequently the utilization of pastures
by stock impracticable., Again, in the
usual contracts with 9laborers, the latter
boarded themselves, and consequently the
Landlord did not feel the necessity of pro-
4 ducing more pork than enough to supply
his own family. These circumstances,
combined with others, have tended to
diminish the production of pork in Geor-
gia. for the last ten years, but the price Of
cotton having fallen toiVery low figures,
it can no longer be relied upon to pur.
chase supplies, and hence farmers are
endeayoring to shake of their habits of
speculative farming, and, as rapidly as
possible, preparing to make their farms
selfsupporting.
