NEW SOUTHERN TOWNS.
Within ten years the town of An
niston, in Alabama, has grown from
nothing to be a place of over five
thousand inhabitants, full of thriv
ing industries and growing every
day. It was started by two men who
bought several thousand acres of
land, including some iron property
and started a furnace, from which
this thriving town has grown.
About sixty miles beyond Anniston
lies Birmingham, where a company
of capitalists some twelve years years
ago invested in land and started iron
mills. There are to day between 12,
000 and 15,000 people in Birmingham,
and the city is growing right along.
About five years ago some capital
ists invested in property, in the She
nandoah Valley at the intersection of
the Shenandoah Valley railroad and
the Norfolk and Great Western
and started the town of Roanoke. It
has now about 8,000 inhabitants, with
numerous industries and is making
rapid progress.
Now another company has pur
chased property on the banks of the
Tennessee river in Alabama, at the
head of navigation, where they pro
pose to establish a town and large
iron industries. The place is to be
called Sheffield. Success is predicted
for it.
These instances of the rapid growth
of new Southern towns are but fur
ther evidence of progress, and go to
show how rapidly manufactories judi
ciously located and managed develop
our resources and add to our wealth.
In addition to these new towns nearly
all the Southern towns and cities have
made more or less progress, some of
them having grown astonishingly
within the past ten years.
NORTH CAROLINA AND THE
SPEAKERSHIP.
There are now three recognized can

and Carlisle, and the position of rep
resentatives from North Carolina is
of some interest to The Observer
readers. Of the seven recognized
Democrats from this State we feel
authorized to say :
Bennett and Skinner will vote for
Carlisle, of Kentucky.
Dowd, Greene and Cox, will vote
for Cox, of New York.
Vance, (R. B.) and Scales will vote
for Randall.
York, Liberal, who has always
claimed to be a Democrat, will pro
bably vote for Carlisle, and O'Hara,
Republican, will enter the Republican
caucus and vote for the regular nomi
nee of that party.

Continued Snider
Payment ol Bonds
Authorized.
Washington, Nov. 22. It has been
decided t Discontinue Ship Island quar
antine station in existence during the
winter as a refuge station in case any
of the boards of health should be un
der the necessity of isolating vessels
having contagious diseases on board.
A Dispatch was published this
morning from Allentown, Pa., an
nouncing that Mr. Snider, assistant
attorney general, engaged in the pro
secution of election cases in South
Carolina, had tendered his resigna
tion for the alleged reason that the
government did not give - its officers
proper assistance and encouragement.
In reply to inquiries at the Depart
ment of Justice to-day, it was stated
that Snider 's services as an assistant
to the special counsel prosecuting the
South Carolina cases were dispensed
with on the 30th of April last, and
that he has not been connected with
the cases in any way since that date.
The Secretary of the Treasury has
this day authorized the payment of
the 3 per cent, bonds embraced in the
122d call which will mature Decem
ber 1st. 1883, without rebate of inter
est, from and after this date, ijj the!
order of their presentation forthat
purpose. The call was for bonds
amounting to $15,000,000, about $225,
000 of which have been presented for
redemption.
The Secretary of the Treasury also
authorized to-day, the payment of 3
per cent, bonds embraced in the 124th
call whenever presented for redemp
tion prior to the date of their ma
turity, February 1st, 1884, with in
terest to date of presentation.
THE FALSE PROPHET.
How his Conglomerate Army t.ot
Away with Hicks Pasha.
London, Nov. 22. Further advices
from '.he defeat of Hicks Pasha say
that the forces of El Mahdi comprised
it is estimated 30,000 men and in
cluded Dervishes.Bedouins, mulattoes
and regulars. The battle was fought
near El Elboed. El Mahdi first sent
forward the Dervishes declaring they
would vanquish the enemy by divine
aid. Subsequently the regulars join
ed in the attack and the engagement
became general. The army of Hicks
Pasha which early in battle wa3 divi
ded into two bodies was subsequently
reunited and formed into a square,
which the forces of the false prophet
broke aftai a day's desperate fight
ing. A council of ministers has Iqieen
held and it has been decided to 6oii
centrate at Khartoum what Egyptian
troops remain at Duem Goba and
other places in Soudan. The forces
under Hicks Pasha comprised 25,000
men. He had with him ten British
officers. Mr. O'Donovan of the Lon
don Daily News, and an artist con
nected with a German illustrated
paper also accompanied his army. It
is understood Sir Evelyn Baring has
advised the Egyptian government to
abandon Soudan and establish a
strong frontier line frem Khartoum
in north Seunara, a province to
Suakim on the Red Sea. It is report
ed that recent orders for the evacu
ation of Egypt by the British troops
have been countermanded.

PE.NSIO.N SWINDLERS.
A Number ol Agents to bj Indicted for
Fraudulent Practices.
Washington, Nov. 22. The com
missioner of pensions has sent the
names of nine pension claim agents to
District Attorney C'orkhill for pre
sentation to the grand jury for in
ducing ex confederate soldiers to file
claims for pensions and taking fees
from them. The papers in these
cases make it evident that circulars
have been sent through the South de
signed to create the belief that ex
confederate soldiers can obtain pen
sions in some casts It is believed
that agents of some of the firms have
visited some sections of the South to
procure such applications. The whole
affair is a fraud, as no such applica
tions can be entertained, and the sole
purpose of the agents is to prevail
upon those they dupe to pay a fee.
Witnesses have been summoned in
these cases. If ex-confederate soldiers
or their friends in the South will send
any circulars they may have re
ceived, or any information within
their knowledge showing the pay
ment of fees in such cases, to District
Attorney Corkhill, 6teps will be taken
to punish these agents who have de
frauded them.

hended.
Milwaukee, Nov. 22. A dispatch
from Iron Mountain says there has
been no violence as yet attempted by
the striking miners at the Chaspin
and Lumington mines of the-Menominee
company, but the officers have
secretly sent for more police and it is
stated that Gov. F. Begole has been
asked to forward a company of milil
tary as soon as possible. The strikers
have forced all employees to join
their ranks and stopped the pumps
Tuesday night, which will cause the
mines to filr with water. The fires
are now out ana the water is eaminei
rapiuiy . r iajii u men are guaru-
ing the machinery. Several shots
were fired Tuesday night by unknown
parties which threw women into hys
terics and caused general alarm..
The strikers number 1500 and they
have posted notices warning others
: j i t: 1 1 i 5
to keep away from the mines. They;
nave aemanaea iuil pay without de
duction of board bills on store ac

accede to their demands.

IF malaria were colored, so that
cessfully resist its approaches.
; Tii o Meanest Tliincr
If malaria were flavored with seme distinct odor, we might be on our
guard when we perceived its presence
If malaria made a noise in its coming, we might be ready to - i . c it
battle and drive it out.
BUT malaria is invisible. ' Malaria has no odor. - Malaria makes no
r . ,1 a. 1 m. 1 11 " . , -
noise. JViaiaria is ine meanpsi 4114 musi bK.uiK.ing enemy in tne world. It
captures us' beforewef 'can make resistance. It holds us in its grasp and
cripples or kills us before we realize that it has designs on us. Silently it
does its malevolent work and we are its victims.
There is no reason why malaria should get the better 0 us.
If we fight malaria with Brown's Iron Bitters we shall have the
victory.
Malaria attacks bad blood, weak
achs, and enfeebled constitutions. Brown's Iron Bitters enriches the
blood and makes it healthy. It imparts new life to the lungs, and helps
them throw off that whicn would otherwise ruin them. ' Ir'braces up the
liver and helps it to secrete exactly enough bile, and to dispose of it in a'
legitimate way. It tones the stomach and helps it to "dfgest three good
meals a day, thus invigorating the constitution and budding., up the whole
system anew. Thus it defeats malaria and casts out its effects.
-: Brown's Iron Bitters is not an intoxicating. drink,; but a skillfully
prepared tonic, both gentle and powerful in its operation, As a family
medicine it has no superior. Buy of the nearest druggist. 3

Mercury has produced more misery
and made more cripples than war, pes
tilence and famine combined. If you
have any blood diseases or skin humor
it is your duty to yourself and posterity
to take the only vegetable cure, which
is Swift's Specific.
Swift's Specific has relieved me of
malarial blood poison after I had been
confined to the house for five moutlis
and had been dosed with blue mass ami
calomel and other poisonous drugs un
til I was in despair. Swift's Specigc is
the remedy for this kind of blood
poison. C. M. Clark, Agent Southern
Life Insurance Co., Atlanta. Ga.
FOR LADIES.
I have been using for a montli or nvo
in my household, Swift'6 Specific (S. S
S.), the greater portion of it kaigt
been consumed by the female portion of
my family, and with the happiest re
sults. It acted like a charm on my
wife, who had been in bad health for a
longtime, and for whom I have paid
hundreds of dollars for doctors and
medicines; It began to build her up
from the first dose. Another female
member of my family took it with
equally satisfactory results. It is cer
tainly the best tonic for delicate ladie-
that I have ever used, and I have tried
them all. I have no doubt that want of
exercise, close confinement in poorly
ventilated houses, sewer gas poison ami
malarial poison often produce sickness
among our wives, daughters and sisters,
and I believe Swift 8 Specific is the rem
edy for all this sort of blood poisoning.

TREATMENT OF CANCER.
If
For twenty : years I have suffered
from a cancer on the side of my back
near the shoulder and exhausted the
whole catalogue of remedies without
any relief. The cancer growing worse
all the time, the wholeupper part of my
body became stiff' and full of pain. I
had. virtually lost the use of both arms,
my general health had broken down,
andl saw it was only a question of time
whan life itself would be destroyed. In
this condition I commenced the use of
Swift's Specific. The first bottle re
lieved me of the stiffness in the neck,
the second gave me perfect use of my
arms, and I feel strong and well in every
way. I am a poor man but I would not
take $5,000 for the good I have expe
rienced with Swift's Specific. I believe
it will force out all the poison and cure
me. W. R. Robisox, Davisboro, Ga.
