"I m, yum, I smell burnt cotton,” said a cotton buyer in front of Toole. MeGarrah S: Tondee s warehouse several days ago. "Here it is, said another buyer, picking up a handful of scorched cotton which was lying on the ground. -There is no fire in it,” he added, carelessly. -How fast will cotton burn?” ask ed a Recorder man, who was stand ing by. "It will burn luster than anything I know ot. said the buyer, as he turned the staple around in his band and examined it. ‘‘Just to show you —here, and he picked up a handful of clean cotton and handed it to the reporter. ‘‘Now wad that tip tight and put your cigar to it. Then fold it up and put your hands over it.” Ine reporter did so. The moment too cigar was applied the cotton caught and the tire began to sink down like a drill into the handful, lie closed his hands over it. and in a short time it became so hot that he was unable to hold it. Picking up another handful he wrapped it around tin tire, and, holding it tight ly in both hands succeeding in crushing out the tire, as he thought. V* hen it was again opened, however, it began to burn as hard as ever. "It rs almost impossible to put the tire out when it once catches cotton. The closer a bale is packed the fast er it will burn. It doesn't spread out. like anything else, but burns directly to the centre, and consumes the inside of the bale first. I remem ber once in Savannah on the wharf, when I was billing some compressed bales, that all at once a boy veiled at me, and lookingaround sa%v a bale I had just passed fall to pi • and flames begin to come from it IBy good luck the fire got no f njfrp.p "1 hat bale, probably, had been t am ing a couple of days. Gin liases are often burned up hv the y .inters smoking in tire field and letdvg a spark drop into a cotton basket It is dumped into the wagon andxlien into the gin house, and does nit get fairly started before night, anil be fore any one knows it, the gin louse is on tire and burnt.” “Big fires in warehouses,” hejeon tinued. “are often caused by caipless drivers, who smoke a they drive the cotton into town. Ti e tiniest kind of a spark will sink do a baleTand if not discovered will burn thousands of dollars worth of -otton. That is why buyers always carry as much iiiMiruiiee as (Lev T ici'o is no telling when t , ; ti '• ■“. s * > I irdor* 1 KNOCKING EVOLUTION OUT. Talmage Stands upto it for Fourßounds. The Rev. T. Do Witt 'Falmage, in the Baptist ministers’ weekly meet ing of Murray street, yesterday, answered the question : “Is there such a thing as evolution?” m a lec ture an hour long. The lecturer and the ministers’ applause made so much noise that business men in that neighborhood come to the doors and windows to listen and enjoy. Pound I.—All the best instru ments used by scientific men. Mr. 'falmage said, belong to Christian institutions. Morse, inventor of the telegraph, was a. Christian ; Cyrus W. Field, who swung a cable under the Atlantic, was a Christian: James Y. Simpson, of Edinburg, discoverer of anasthesis, was a Christian. Pound 2. —Mr. falmage set side by side the BibU account and the scientific hypotheses of the origin of the human race, and derived -so much amusement from the contrast that the walls almost shook with laughter and applause. How would it sound, he asked, if, instead of the genealogy of man in the Bible, we should read that a mushroom begat a tadpole, a tadpole begat a polly wog. a pollywog begat a fish, a fish, begat -a reptile, a reptile begat a quadruped, a quadruped begat a baboon, and a baboon begat a man ? Herbert Spencer, however, was not present at the creation, and as the Lord was present the Rev. l)r. Tal "mage preferred the Lord’s account of it. [Great applause.] Round 3.—-As for the widely ac cepted theory of the survival of the fittest, it was not true. Garfield died in September and Guiteau survived him until the next June ! Pound 4. —Finally, there lias been no natural progress. Whtve e-nde fine such horses now-a-days as Job describes? Men once grew 10 feet high ; now they reac h to 64 feeL Once they lived to be from 200 to 900 years old, now 30 years. The truth is natural evolution is down ward in tendency. The Tombs of New York, Moyamensing prison in Philadelphia, Seven Dials in Lon don, and the Cowgate in Edinburgh are festering carbuncles on the face and neck of evolution. When you can evolve an oratorio out of a buzz saw you can evolve something good out of the natural tendencies in hu man life. Evolution is an old heathen corpse set up in a morgue, and Spencer and Huxley are trying to galvanize it. FIRST QUALITY OF MANHOOD. You want to know, Tom, what is the first quality of manhood? Well, listen, iam going to tell you ill one word of five letters. And I am going to write that word in very* loud letters, as though you were deaf, so that y'ou may never forget it. That word is “TRUTH.” Now, then, remember, truth is the only sure foundation on which manhood can be erected, for other wise, no matter how beautiful the upper stories may tie, and no matter of how good material they may be built, the edifice, the character, the manhood, will be but a sham which offers no sure refuge and protection to those who seek it. for it will tumble down when the trial comes. Alas, my boy, the world i3 very full of such shams of manhood in every profession and occupation. There are lawyers in this town who know they have never had any training to fit them for their work, who yet impose upon the people, and take their money for giving them advice which they know they are unfitted to give. I heard of one lately who advised his partner “never to have anything to do with law-books, for they would confuse his mind.” There are ignorant physicians, who can and do impose upon peo ple more ignorant than themselves. Therp are preachers without num ber pretending to know what thev have never learned. Don't you see that their manhood is at best but a beautiful deceit? Now, I want you to be a man. and that you may be that, I want you first to he thoroughly true.. 1 hope you would scorn to tell a lie. but that is only the beginning of truthfulness. I want you to despise ail sham, all pretense, hi 1 efforts to seem to be otherwise than you are. —Bishop Dudley. President Arthur has invited Mr. ( Lveiand to make his home in the M bite House whenever he comes to V\ ashington. The President wiii tender the President-elect a dinner the night before his inaugural. —The fellow, who by mistake, sent his auburn-haired sweetheart instead of a bottle of Dr. Ball's Cough Syrup a bottle of hair-dye, wants to know the best way to com mit suicide. SILK RAISING IN GEORGIA. Some thirty or forty years ago there was much enthusiasm in Geor gia over raising the morns multicau lis for the feeding of the silk worm. This peculiar species of the mulberry tree was cultivated in nearly every garden spot about Macon and many silk worms were nurtured in their luxuriant foliage. So numerous were the cocoons that they were used as playthings by children. The rich, glossy threads of the cocoons were never utilized to any extent, probably because our people were to much e: - grossed in the vast acres of the cotton plant. We are glad to notice that the raising of the silk worm is, after the lapse of many .years, again re vive'!, and that manufacture of silkis a success. Through Captain Edwards of Dodge county, we are presented with a handsome silk handkerchief ■ a piece twenty yards in length, made by .Mrs. * of the same county; and further to her credit she raised the trees, attended the worms and wove the silk into cloth. What is it that Georgia soil, with proper industry, cannot pro duce ?—Maeon Telegraph. Well and Truly Said. “Wc do not intend at this time,” says the New York Advertiser, a staunch republican paper, “to < r uss the details or figures uiarstn lby Mr. Blaine. There is much ' ' say about them, but the disci* m i.s foreign to our present purpo. - That purpose is to point out with emphasis and with regret that Mr. Blaine’s spirit is not the spirit of General Grant at Appomatox; that if the evils he complains of exist, they have existed during a score of years of republican rule; that patriotic democrats, and especially patriotic southern democrats, have assured us with the utmost solemnity that how ever hard it might be to cope with some existing evils in the south in previous circumstances, they Mould and should melt like mist before the rising sun after a democratic suc cess in a presidential election. For this reason, while waiving the minor questions of grace and delicacy in a defeated candidate's taking such an attitude, at such a moment, those citizens will agree with us, we take it. when wo express our hearty sor row that M r. Blaine spoke the words lie did speak at Augusta.” A LITTLE NONSENSE. The shoemaker's is a healing art. A tie vote-—a matrimonial engage ment. Love is blind, especially if the girl is rich. Red is a fast color when it is used in painting towns. When a candidate hasn’t a ghost of a show, there is not much spirit in his canvass. When a couple are making love by moonlight their feelings is one of in-fine-night bliss. Oscar Wilde says he writes all his poems on an empty stomach. Queer bind of a writing desk. A man who. saw an apparition of his deceased wife, said he was not scared, but sort of surprised because be didn’t ex-spectre. The reason thegovernment doesn’t employ women letter carriers is be cause that business belongs exclu sively to the mail service. When a subscriber goes into a country newspaper office to renew his subscription, the editor puts on a sanetum-money-us look. Belva Lockwood, it seems, was a presidential candidate “for revenue 01113-.” She made §135 out of her canvass by lecturing and she says she is satisfied. The young girl who wanted a remedy for a “a ticklish feeling about the face and mouth,” could probably accomplish her object by having her fellow shave off his moustache. The Duty of the South. The democratic party ha grand opportunity in the election u-dem ocratic President to prov to the people of the whole count 17 titwili be governed by wisdom. .ice and moderation in the administration of the Government. With the people of the south the spoils of office are of the least consideration. What the country needs and milst have under President Cleveland is a national, honest and efficient administration of the Government. There will he no unseemly scramble for office. As the south, in a great measure, repre sents the democratic party, so will it be held responsible for the conduct of the Government. We will be on trial, so to speak for the four years commencing on fourth of March. Our people should lift themselves to the highest plane of an exalted pa triotism, the faitful observation ot which will so commend itself to the intelligence and virtue of the coun try that good men. irrespective of party, will endorse the administra tion of President Cleveland as just, wise and patriotic. —Augusta Chron icle.

PERHAPS there has never occur red in the medical history of Geor gia, two more remarkable cases of recovery from apparently hopeless illness, than the facts given below disclose. The medical profession generally, scout the proposition that consumption can be cured, and in controverting this of- opeated asser tion of theirs, we beg leave to pre sent the following true statements, from some of the best citizens of this state, and among the number that of U pil YSlClo T 1 WllD lino o ■ jdvo'l o practice in Georgia, for the last twenty-six years, is a graduate of medicine and whose skill is beyond dispute. The following is Dr. J. 0. Holloway's Statement. “The first ease in which I pre scribed Brewer's Lung Restorer, was that of Mr. John Pearson, who had been troubled with a dreadful cough for many months. lie was finally taken to his bed with what appeared to be consumption in its worst form, and his early death seemed inevit able. Asa last resort. I sent for a bottle of the Lung Restorer and after he had a taken a few doses be seem ed to revive. lie continued to use it for some time and was finally re stored to perfect health. So far as 1 could discover, lie had consumption, and the Lung Restorer saved his life. All of his family that I knew, died of pulmonary disease, except his half brother. 1 was afterwards called in consultation to see Mrs. B. F. llearndon. She seemed to be rapidly sinking from pulmonary affection, her lungs were rapidly de caying and 1 thought she could not possibly live over a month. The at tending physician satisfied the fam ily that nothing more could be done for Mrs. llearndon. I then sugges ted a trial of the Lung Restorer. A bottle was procured and the patient commenced taking it. I learn that slift began to improve immediately. I saw her two months afterwards and she seemed in very good health. I behove the Lung Restorer saved her life. I have since used several dozen of the medicine in my prac tice, and a few bottles in mv family, always with the most satisfactory results. The Lung Restorer is the only patent medicine that I have ever prescribed in my practice, al though i have no prejudice against them.” l)r. Holloway resides at Barnesviiie, Ga. The gentleman who outlined his ease below is a man considerably ad vanced in life, and is noted for his sterling integrity. Tlis post office is Yatcsville, Upson Cos., Ga. The fol lowing is Mr. John Pearson s Statement. * In the spring of 1882 J was attack ed with a very bad cough which continued to grow worse until fall, when 1 got so weak that J could not get about. I tried a great many kinds of medicine but continued to grow worse. I was notified that J had the consumption and would probably die. Dr. Holloway finally told me to try Brewer’s Lung Re storer. They sent to Ward’s store and got a bottle and I commenced taking it right away. After taking two or three doses, I bogan to im prove, and by the time I had used up one bottle, I was able to get on my feet again. lam now in excel lent health. lam confident that the Lung Restorer saved my life and my neighbors are of the same opin ion. It is the best lung remedy ever made, in my opinion. Dr. 11. promised me that he would write to the manufacturers and tell them of the wonderful cure it made in my caf-e. Early in November, 1881, while sewing on the machine, my wife was taken with a severe pain in her side, which was soon followed by hemorrhages from her lungs and a severe cough. Fever commenced, she could neither eat or sleep, and in a few weeks she was reduced to a living skeleton. Ihe attending phy sician told me that he thought one of her lungs was entirely gone. She could not retain the most deli cate nourishment on her stom ach. I then agreed with Or. Sullivan, my familj- physician, to call Dr. Molioway in consul tation. They made a final exami nation of the patient and pronounc ed the case hopeless. Dr. Holloway then suggested the Brewer’s Lung .Restorer as a last resort. I sent for a bottle and gave her a dose. I found that she could retain it on her stomach and after about the third dose, 1 began to notice some im provement in her condition. I con tinued the medicine regularly, and by the time she had taken two bot tles, she was able to walk about the house. She is now in better health than she has enjoyed for several years. I believe the Lung Restorer saved her life. We have a family of six children, some of them grown. Mr. Hearndon’s post office is Yatesvilie, Upson Cos., Ga.
