THE SLOSS PROPERTY.
Birmingham, November 21..—Business
and industrial eireles were thrown into a
flutter of exhilarating excitement this
afternoon by the uews that$2,0(10,U00 in new
money was coining here to take the mac-
niflcont fllpss property, aud expedite the
development of its almost boundless coal
and iron and steel possibilities, u traae to
this eifeot having been consummated yes
terday, mainly by the efforts 6f Mai. John
W. Johnston, president of the Pacitlc rail
way. The bulk of the purchase money will
be supplied by Richmond, Va.,
•capitalists whom Muj. Johnston has
already interested iu both Birmingham
-and Coalburg projects. Oue hundred
thousand dollars is coming from New
York. The present owners get $2,000,(WO.
■The capital stock wilt bo increased to
000,000, aud two more furnaces, and proba
bly an extensive steel olaut built. The
name will be changed to the Sloss Steel
and Iron Company. Col. Sloss, president
of the Sloss Company, says its property
• can supply material to ten furnaces for a
hundred years. It embraces besides two
furnaces of a daily capacity of 225 tons and
250 coke ovens, forty-rive miles of red iron
veins of Red mountain, 15,000 acres of
brown ore lands, 20,000 of coal lands, aud
two extensive lime rock quarries.
This event somewhat overshadows in
public view another transaction of great
importance to the iron interests aud to
Birmingham, of which reports have been
in circulation to-day. This is that two,
and possibly more, new furnaces will be
built of eastern money. These items of
news have given an impetus to the real es
tate boom which was already far ahead of
-anything ever seen here before
BEATS TEN ACRES AND A MULE.
St. Louis, November 21.—Rev. J. Milton
'Turner, the well known colored politician,
in an interview, says he has become con
vinced that the time has come for the col
ored people to seek some other means
than politics for the betterment of their
-condition. He believes that the negroes
must be redistricted throughout the coun
try, and has a plan for the formation of a
-colony in Missouri, in Butler county. In
that county Charles P. Chouteau has set
aside 35,000 acres of fertile, heavily
wooded lauds. Located in the vicinity
are saw mills representing invest
ments of $100,000. Purchasers of homes
will be paid 65 cents per thousand
for cutting logs on their own lands; lj
■cents per foot for cutting and peeling piles
and 10 cents each for making railroad ties.
■The lands are to be sold for from $3 to $6
per acre, all timber except what is needed
for fencing and building reserved; one-
third of the purchase money to be paid in
-cash; when the deed will be given, and the
purchaser to give notes bearing 8 per cent,
interest for the balance. Where the pur-
•chaser cannotjpay one-third down, he may
pay what he likes and immediately occupy
the land; but no deed will be given until
the third is paid. Carpenters will at once
begin the erection ot ten or fifteen houses,
but after settlers begin to arrive in num
bers they will build their own. Already
there are several actual settlers, and Mr.
Turner is confident the scheme will prove
a great blessing to the colored race.
Why We Have Vertigo.
"Youth’s Companion.
Vertigo is from a Latin word that means
bo turn. It denotes an ailment character
ized by a sudden feeling of dizziness, and
-at times by actual falling. Sometimes sur
rounding objects seem to the person at
tacked to whirl round, or the floor, or
ground, to rise" up. The fact that vertigo
is often one of the earlier symptoms of
apoplexy frequently fills the person with
terror, lest the deadly disease may be im
pending. But in the majority of cases, it
has no such significance, not even as indi
cating a tendency.
To most persons, standing or walking
seems a very simple thing. Du the con
trary, it is a very complicated one, and re
quires the concurrent action of different
nervous centers. A disturbance of their
harmonious co-operation at once throws
us off our balance, producing the sensa
tions above indicated.
One form of vertigo—a very persistent
form—is due to irritation of certain nerves
within the inmost chamber of the ear. the
•so-called labyrinth. This was what Dean
Swift suffered from so long, and, to the
physicians of his day, so unaccountably.
■One of its symptoms is temporary deaf
ness. This distinguishes it from all other
forms.
Another form connects itself mainly
"with the eye. Of this kind is the feeling
•of giddiness, which some people have
when, being on a train at rest, another
train slowly passing deceives them into
the idea that it is their own train wnich
has begun to move. The giddiness occurs
•at the moment when the false and true
•sensations become confused together.
In the case oi the near-sighted, the inter
nal muscles of the eye often unduly strain-
•ed in their effort to converge the eye suffi
ciently for the sight of near objects, sud
denly give way, when the eye balls turn
out and the letters run into each other.
This is accompanied by a feeling of giddi
ness, earache, headache and sometimes
nausea.
A third form connects itself with some
slight disorder of the stomach, and occurs
most often when the stomach is empty.
There is a sudden swimming in the head,
objects seem to revolve, and the person
totters and perhaps falls.
The fourth form is purely a nervous ori
gin, and is due to nervous exhaustion. It
may be caused by intellectual overstrain,
long-continued anxiety, physical excesses,
or the immoderate use of tobacco, alcohol,
or tea. Elevated positions may bring on
an attack. It rarely results in actual fall
ing, but oftener in the feeling of being
about to fall. ^
A llritish Strainer ill Trouble.
Savannah, November 22.—The British
steamer Benevolent, Captain Thompson,
hence for Amsterdam, sprung a leak while
going to sea and made water so fast that
she had to be beached opposite Fort Ogle

be discharged to allow of further examina
tion and repairs. She has fifteen feet oi
water in her forward compartment.

and went to smoke. On his return she
was gone, and t he win'ow of her state
room was open upon t he deck within ten
test of the rail. She was not on the ship,

' A Prize.
Another lottery wave passed over New
Orleans last Tuesday, and in its course
struck Mr. Adolph L. Beltran, son of our
well known fellow-citizen, R. Beltran,
Esq., commission merchant on Decatur
street.
The blow was a severe one, and it struck
Adolph so unexpectedly that he has not
entirely recovered his senses, though in
possession of more cents than he ever had
in the course of his check-ered career.
On Wednesday, with a dollarous ex
pression in his eye, he visited the office of
The Louisiana State Lottery Company,
and inquired for the root doctor. The
singular inquiry excited the curiosity of
the office, aud he was invited to a seat in
the left-hand ward.
His pulse being felt, an extraordinary
contraction of the muscles of the digits of
his right hand was discerned. On re
ducing Mie same a lottery ticket was re
vealed,bearing the number 94,552. A
quick diagnosis of his case was made. The
lottery wave had given him, in the draw
ing on November 9, for a one-doliar invest
ment, the sum of fifteen thousand dollars.
The “root of all evil,” in the form of
very hard cash, was at once administered,
ami Mr. Beltran’s singular inquiry was ex
plained.

were very sore and tender; a friend toltl

the painful places; they gave me almost
immediate relief. I continued the use ot
them, in collection with tonic medicines,
until I was cured. I have used hundreds
of them for myself and family. My hus

with a terrible pain in the right side; he
