Southern Pork Raising. The Commissioner: of Agriculture oi Georgia in his excellent Manual on the Hog, discusses the question or. Southern Pork in an able manner. While his re* marks are designed more particularly foe the^pteteM C^oma, still they may apply' more or less to ail the Southern States. * The bog is a native of the warm or more temperate regions of the earth. All the animals of the order to which the hog belongs are natives of warm cli raates, 'arid none are found in modern times as far North as the hog. The elephant, rhinoceros, and- hippopotamus belong to this order. The hog therefore . finds a eongenial honte at the South. ^ In every instance of decided improve* . ment which has resulted in the establish? ment of a valuable breed, it has been the result of a cross of the small, early maturing, Southern breeds upon the coarse breeds of more Northern climates;. The . Berkshire, . -Essex and Poland t China-rthe Ufi?eg~staridaid breeds of the presentdayj-3alloriginated in this W8y. ?nyT?f tfiew Breeds, introduced Tnto'the South, and properly cared for, will im? prove rather thahr-deteriorate. Apart from all 'theoretical^ considera? tions, the fact of the entire adaptability, of our climate to the hog has been dem? onstrated. In 1860, one fifteenth of ail the bogs in the United States were in Georgia* and during the late war, she not only feu Bex.population, but furnished millions of pounds of bacon to theaxnjy; of the Confederacy. In the rriuch larger -portion of the South the ground seldom freezes, and when it doe8^|?f??ds only ??^tt?h.?r two in- ^derpth,- -aid rarely con tiou es so during the day. The hog is furnished by the Creator with a snout formed for the purpose. of- corning up the soil in v search of food, both animal and vegeta? ble. There,,are few days in the. year when the ground is riot in a condition to be penetrated by this snout in search of ?^?i^ojBiiJ?pj??jtj^;ap, mild. that, the rye or barley, sown early in the fall, furnish, during the winter months, , the green food so necessary for health and thj?ftf^ WKiJ? fheTtmner fbf the' frozen or ;8^^op.ffw| gT?th?;? ;feedirjg;h? hogs in costly houses," from his garnered stores of grain, for six months. oi the year, ours?require only ^simple, shelters well supplied with piuo straw or leaves from the woods-^aiways" accessible, arid* ; costing bat the bauling-^as a bed for tire: ;'night, while they luxuriate, in green paa-t tores of tye or -barley, ? of in-gathering1 rich nuts from the fragrant, upturned, soil during the day.. Notwithstanding' 5 the fact that Georgia was, in I860; so largely a planting State, she ranked x seventh -in- tha-'nambo of hogs'-owned,* and even in 1870, after: the loss of the -war, she ranked ninth, notwithstanding the most flagrant neglect on the part of ; the farmers, under the . paralyzing influ? ence of their losses occasioned by, the resnria ^ the war, - arid the complete tfiacHg^izalfcn of oatefttirailar^rsysteau With, the same care and attention bestowed now that was -given -to .raising - hogs in 1860, Georgia need^ot purchase a pound of pork frorrr- other States. < Indeed, it can be clearly demonstrated that pork. can be raised as cheaply in. Georgia as any State" in the. Xjpipn though at the present time it is' estima? ted that about ten million dollars are annually expended principally by the farmers and farm laborers for pork, lard and bacon imported from the West. .. ;yTt has been shown already. that Geor? gia is in the isothermal belt which passes through the; natural habitat of the hog; that previous tb, and daring the late war, an abundant supply for home con? sumption was raised in the State. It was not only raised, but cared arid preserved on the farm.during the year without dif? ficulty. Hams, unsurpassed in quality that were two years old, raised and cured in Georgia, were of no uncommon occur? rence. As far as climate is concerned, the , there is no difficulty either in rais? ing, curing, or keeping bacon. .... . Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Tennessee and Kentucky are the largest producers of pork, according to the last census. - Clover and Indian corn are almost ex? clusively relied upon for the support arid fattening of hogs in these States, aided only by the gleanings of small grain, harvest fields. We have in Georgia all ; these resources, besides a number of other cheaper crops which furnish excellent food}; I which ihe hogs gather from the "fields. The sweet potato, Sold pea, ground pea, chufa, etc., produce large ;' crops per acre, at very small cost. A variety of fruits, also, such as plums, 'blackberries and mulberries, which grow spontaneously, besides thei peach and apple are valuable auxiliaries.: A very small quantity of corn is needed daring the growth of the hog, and while fatten? ing, only enough just before butchering to harden the'flesh. In order to secure proper attention to -the production of any commodity, there most be-a-reosonabie demand for it when produced/ That there is such a demand in-Gerirgra isshowrf^y thV^ast'^qaanti-^ tfes annually imported from -other. States:- -Pork^or bacon is almost the exclusive animal food of'"the negro population, and constitutes the principal source of supply for the tables of the whites, especially in the rural, districts of ;^*8tafe.f^M$i\^\\WX >'?'?" ". As far as the country is concerned, therefore, Georgia possesses every neceo : sary requisite for the cheap, production of > pork Of thbvery best quality, the only difficulties resting with the people, who tick neither the energy nor intelligence required for utilizing the natural advan? tages of climate and soil, with which they are surrounded. The great difficulty lies in the adoption of a mistaken policy, .under the influence of the high price which cotton commanded after the late war, and the disorganized, migratory character of free negro labor. The idea that it was economy to 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 a 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 laborers, the latter boarded themselves, and consequently the landlord did not feel the necessity of pro? 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 to very low figures, it can no longer be relied open to pur? chase supplies, and hence farmers are endeavoring to shake off their habits of speculative; farming, and, as rapidly as possible, preparing to make tbeir farms self-supporting. ? Living in North Beaver township, this County, is a man named Wilson, who has a little daughter aged two years aud which was born without ears. On one side of the face there was no sign of an outward ear, the side being perfectly smooth, while on the other side there was a little cartilege, but it had grown over the canal. The other organs of the child were perfect, with the exception of the jaw, which was badly shaped. On Sun? day the physicians performed the difficult operation of making an opening, and found a perfect inner ear by* cutting through the integument to the bony opening into the inner ear. Tbey then formed as perfect an outer ear as possible from the.flesh and the little one is able to hear perfectly,?iVewccwtfe (Pa.) Newa. A Bemarkable War Belle. Philadelphia, October 17.?That hair grows upon the human body after death has been a theory held by many S-ominent physicians, but discredited by I e profession generally. Experts who follow: theonelanchory pursuit of laying, oat and'dressing the dead hold in some contempt this professional opinion, and declare that cases of hair growth after death are frequent, and even so palpable that even a novice would hot fail to -de? tect them. A very curious relic is in the posession of a Pottsville book-keeper, a veteran of the late war, was examined by several' Philadelphia doctors recently, and ap? pears to furnish conclusive proof that death does not always put an end to the, growth of hair upon portions of'the human body, even after the lapse of many years. ' Henry Matthews was a good boI dier during the war, and was at the front in some of the, hottest engagements of that great struggle. As a member of Company H, of the F?rfy-eighth~Tennr jylvania Volunteers, he was in the fight .MhEJoW Harbor; -OnyMay 26,1864, he Prfas^struck down- byNarbullet, which en [ Lered.-- the . back" .part of the- head. The ball passed through a portion if the brain, and: was. taken out above the forehead. The operation was performed by Dr. W. B. D. Blackwood, then Sur i;eon General of the division, who now lives at No. 246 North Twentieth street, [ i U-.tbia city. During the progress of the operation a mass of the brain, weighing about an ounce and a half and as large lb au egg, escaped. The bullet, to which tome of-the-brain matter and a portion of the scalp adhered, was preserved, and upon bis departure from the hospital was given to the wounded mao, who, to the i^tODishment of the; surgeorj, recovered. ] Je has suffered no mental inconvenience and now occupies a responsible clerical po?ition in the Beading Railway o:5ce at 3?ottsvlUei When;the'-bullet was'pre sented to him twenty . years ago. at the hospital door the brain, matter and the little patch of scalp h'ad'dried .up,:but a fsw short hairs could bo seen sticking out from- the latter. The bullet had been considerably- flattened,- and some what resembled in shape a miniature clam shell? & ; As time elapsed Mr. Matthews, who g reatly2-'prized & tufa relic, noticed !* ah astonishing' fact. ' The-hairs, which: at f r?t were scarcely prominent enough to t $if'oticedj were j growing. - 'Otbelr nairs grew out also until a thick - black bunch appeared at the back end of the bullet. ?At first his Mends refused to credit the story /although he showed the precious r 3iic io proof. ' Once or twice- he cut off | tie ends df thegrowing hair. It contin? ued to grow. 'About a year ago. Mr. Matthews came -to -Philadelphia and ;iwghP'-^^Br^BricTcwo^jrto whom he e thibiled the . bullet with its bunch of apparently healthy hair. The surgeon, iu;tfce,jjresence of, .professional witnesses, cat- off an inch of the:hair/ measured that which remained, boxed, and, sealed up the bullet, and placed it in trusty hands for safe keeping. Recently the package was opened. A careful meas? urement showed that the hair had grown orer an inch since the ball had been last !.<:en, and Dr. JBrackwood said yesterday: -The fact is beyond dispute. Apparent y without nutrition, upou the dried up p irticle, of .scalp and brain, this hair 'hi id 6een-and5s bow^ growing as surely, if not so luxuriantly, as it grew upon W.atthewa' head'when he was shot. I ?collect the wound,* the operation and tie .presentation of the relic -to the in? jured man after his remarkable recovery. It seems to me to settle beyond; doubt that hair can and does grow upon dead bodies. The fact has' steadily been de? nied by medical journals.and medical men generally, but the men who' have charge of the medical college - 'subjects,' tbose mysterious felldws who have every opportunity to know, nearly all declare that they continually. witness the proof of it." - That hair can be transplanted arid will contract organic adhesion is a recognized [iast, and the American Cyclopedia.says: "Hairs will grow after death and live for centuries^'But no such remarkable' in? stance as the hair growing on Mr. Mat thaws bullet is on record. A Smokeless Locomotive. ? - ' - A short time ago it' was stated that a new locomotive, invented by Mr. Cbas. B. Coventry, was on trial on the Chicago and Northwestern JRailway, whieb--it.=was chimed, was destined to solve the problem of preventing the emission of dense smoke and cinders from locomotive a tacks. The locomotive was tried in freight ser? vice of the Chicago and Northwestern /or three weeks,;and has given the great? est satisfaction." fs During- the iasr 'two weeks it has been on trial on the suburban trains of the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific. The poorest quality of bituminous coal was used, and yet, at no time, although at one point it ran fifty miles an hour, did any bls.ck smoke come out of the stack. Not a particle of cinders and dust was thrown out. The Bm jkeT.that wasAemitted was. thirT and white-looking ?much like escaping steim. 'There, was r>o badodor from escaping gas, as is the case on ordinary engines. Mr. Coventry explained that the gassea on ordinary engines are usually thrown out of the stack, which is the caise of the density of. the,smoke. On hia engine the -gassea are all burned, and thin was. what caused the saving of fuel. .. r"'-?' ' j ? ?

Humiliation baa come to the family of Prof. Gansing, the celebrated physiolo? gist. Several days ago, John Gansing, a young man of promise, married a Chinese woman. When the Professor heard of the disgraceful affair, he swore that, never again should the worthless fellow find shelter under the paternal roof. Several days afterwards the son came home, bringing his wife with him. Un? observed, they entered the parlor. When the old gentleman entered, not suspect? ing his son's return, be was shocked by an avalanche of indignation. ?3 T?rjcfw ^date you bring"' this woman to my-honse?" he exclaimed." ~~ 'i The young man was astonished. "Father, I do not understand you," said he. "I thought that you would welcome my wife.

The Professor's face brightened. "She has considerable "money on hand. I have,none. In this respect, too, we are opposites.*' The Professor laughed. "She has generously consented to pay off the mortgage on our place." The Professor threw his arms around the young wife and kissed her muskmelon countenance. Releasing her, he turned to his son and said: "I am pleased at your choice. The Chinese are not nearly so yellow as they have been painted. . I should have mar? ried this sort of a girl?not too opposite but just opposite enough for all practical purposes. .Your Another, my son, is my opposite.

In August, 1881, nearly three years ago, my sod, who was at that time living at Clinton, Ga.. came over to see me with the sad intelligence that his wife was in the last stages of consumption and that he r physician had pronounced her case hope' less. I went immediately over, and I felt that nothing; could be done. She was coughing and spitting: incessantly, and at times would discharge from her lungs a large quantity of pus or matter ?could not sleep or retain anything on her stom? ach, ami was, in fact, In tho last stages of the dis? ease. This was about the time you began to ad? vertise Brewer's Lung Bestorer, and as my son' expressed a desire to give it to his wife, two or three bottles were procured and with scarcely a vestige of hope we commenced giving it to her in small doses, gradually increasing the quantity un? til the p rescribed dost? was reached. She began tc improvo after a few doses and continued to do so daily, until uhe was finally restored to life and health, and is to-day perhaps in better health than ever bet?re. She is subject to colds, but a few sw .1 lows of Brewer's Lung Bestorer (which she is never without) relieves her immediately. I con? sider her restoration to perfect health a mlraclo, for which she is indebted to Brewer's Lung Re? storer. My iion is almost a monomaniac on the subject of Brewer's Lung Bestorer and never lets an opportunity pass where he thinks such a medi? cine would be required, that he does not speak of it iu most glowing terms. Not long sirce a North? ern gentleman on his way to Florida heard of this cure anc. was induced by my son to give it to his invalid wife, and she was cured as if by magic."
