For a number of years I have suffered nntold agony from the effects of blood poison. I had my case treated by several prominent physicians, but received but little, if any, relief. I resorted to all sorts of patent medicines, spending a large amount of money, but vet getting no better. My attention was attracted by the cares said to have (been affected by B. B.

Dropped Two Miles, Jackson, Michigan, April 4.?."It is claimed by the balloonist Baldwin that he has dropped rive thousand feet from his balloon with a parachute. I shall drop at least ten thousand feet, and shall attempt what no other balloonist ever did?I shall drop with the parachute closed, leaving it entirely to the fall to open it." So said Edward D. Hogan to a group of newspaper men who had assembled this morning on a vacant lot northwest of of the town to see him make his foolhardy venture. Hogan lives with his 'amily at No. 421 Van Buren street. He was for fourteen years employed in a planing mill here, and only during the last four years has devoted himself to ballooning as a pro? fession. He has studied the subject thoroughly, however, for many years, having from childhood taken the keenist interest in it. He rigged up a workshop at his home and there he spent every spare moment experimenting in the con* struction of balloons, and during the past twenty years has made frequent short ascensions. During the last lew months he has given his attention to parachutes, and on February 9 last announced that he would ascend to an altitude of 10,000 feet and drop from the car. '?There is no use," he said, "unless I can beat all previous records and fall further than any living man. A few hundred feet more will count nothing for me. I must at least double the distance." He repeated this talk this morning when getting his car ready, and at twen? ty-five minutes to ten the balloon ascend? ed. As it left the earth one of the guy ropes holding the parachute broke. .As soon as possible Hogan descended. "I'll go up again in an hour," he said. The second trial was a success. The .balloon at five minutes past eleven shot np to a distance of fully ten thousand feet. It then settled about three hun? dred feet and hung like a ball in space. The crowd watched the balloon with bated breath. Observers provided with powerful glasses saw Hogan make ready to jump. "He'll weak-en/' said some one. ' No," cried another watcher, "he is getting out." Hogan drew up the para? chute till he reached the guy ropes, to which he lashed himself. He did not expect the parachute to open for the first'two or three hundred feet and he was afraid he might be shaken loose by the rapidity .of the drop unless he took the precaution to fasten himself. When Hogan stepped on the edge of the car to spring into space the watchers grew pale snd sick. Surely this daring man was going to certain death! A shout of horror went up. Hogan had dropped. Down like a cannon ball he fell for five hundred feet. The parachute had not yet opened. Down it came, like a gigantic, elongated bird. Suddenly a shout went np. The parachute had caught the air. It opened like the wings of a monster eagle. Hogan's flight downward was almost stopped with a jerk. Then the parachute settled down to a steady journey earthward with its passenger, and in three minutes from the time the reckless man left the balloon car he landed safely in an open field some little distance from where the ascent was made. The Herald correspondent Was almost the first to grasp the hand of the aero? naut. "I lost my breath," Hogan said, "when I shot down so fast, but I caught it again after a time. It was a great jump, was'nt it? He had never seen a man jump with a parachute, and his was home made, con? taining a hundred yards of stout cloth. He was much disappointed at the slow time made, expecting to come down in ninety seconds. The parachute wsa twenty feet in diameter. Oscilation was guarded against by means of a four inch hole in the apex. Cotton Hills Sown South, The New England cotton mill owners mast keep their weather eye open and watch a new movement in the South? west. ' The people down yonder are beginning to reason among themselves. They say. in snbstance, We grow the cotton ana send it up North to be made into cloth, and after that we have to buy the cloth. Then they put their, thinking caps on and ask, Why can't we build mills of our own and pocket the profits of manufac? ture ourselves? The answer came in the shape of two well equipped establishments in New Orleans. It was an experiment, of course, and the dollars went into the speculation with some timidity. But the spirit of competition was vigorous and the love of an honest penny honestly earned prevail? ed. Then a big building was put up in Wesson, Miss., for the same purpose. Well, the venture was an admirable success in both instances. The Wesson company is going to put up another mill because the demand for its product has greatly increased, and the New Orleans people will very soon follow suit. During the next twenty or thirty years the South will give ns a pretty lively shaking np. Before the war, you know, they never dreamed of stripping for the race, and we had it all our own way. But the times have changed with them. Now, what with their iron mines, and their coal mines, and their new methods of agriculture, and their shrewd.enter? prise, and their commercial daring, we shall have to draw our belts a little tighter and strike a livelier gait, or?well, what of it ? This is a free country; and a big and rieb country, and there is room enough for generous rivalry to get a good deal of exercise and make a good deal of money. Are you ready, gentlemen? Then "Go I"?New York Herald. They Played Cowboy. BtJEGETTSTOWN, Penn., April 7.? Six boys, ranging in age from 10 to 15 years,who have been reading dime liter? ature, went into a barn yesterday after? noon to play "Cowboy." They had two or three pistols and ropes, the latter being used as lassos. During the play one of the lads, after boasting of his ability to throw a rope around the neck of an In? dian and choke him to death, gave his lasso a sling. It chanced to fall over the neck of little James Burton, who started to run. The boy held on, and the rope tightened around Jimmy,s throat. The others thought it was great sport, and laughed at the struggles of the little fel? low to get free. This lasted for some time. Finally the mother of one of the boys appeared upon the scene. She quickly released tbe little sufferer, but too late to save his life. He died within a few minutes after the removel of thr rope. ? Impecunious immigrants are now being stopped daily st Castle Garden and returned home at tbe expense of the steamship companies who bring them. A new schedule of questions has recently been introduced in tbe landing depart? ment, the arriving immigrants being obliged to state on oath who has paid their passage, what is their present finan? cial condition, whether they have ever been convicted of crime, have ever been in a prison or alms house, or have been afflicted with disease or infirmity that hindered them earning a living. It is learned that many poor people are brought out here by the false representa? tions of steamship runners on the other side, tbe runners promising tbem plenty of work on their arrival in New York.

For Bale by Simeon Reid, & Co. Hnng By His Coat. Rawlins, W. T., April 6.?About a month # ago there came to the hunter's camp, in the Elk Head Mountains, a foot-sore, ragged and generally dilapida? ted specimen of tbe disreputable genius tramp. Some more than usually unaccountable vagary of his roving disposition had in? duced this habitual trampest to leave for a time his birthright of a familiar and well-trodden railroad ties and strike out into the plains and the mountains. A blinding snow storm came on, the wander* er lost his road, and when be stumbled on the camp^was half frozen and utterly exhausted. He was kindly cared for, and after resting for several days, was fur? nished by his host with full directions to find the camp he was in search of. One of the articles of attire sported by our tramp was a long-tail coat, and in one of the tail pockets was a quart bottle of .whisky. When he left his former companions the other pocket had been similarly furnished, but had been light? ened of its load by a constant and exhaus? tive process of tramp absorption. Sever? al days passed and the hunter bad almost forgotten his tramp guest, but he was to be recalled to his memory in a startling and a most effectual manner. Returning from the usual daily bunt, the hunter found, one evening, a short distance from his camp, the body of a man suspended from a limb of a large tree. The mere finding of a man hang? ing in these wild mountain solitudes was surely singular enough in itself, but the hanging in manner was more singular still. The than was hung by his coat?a long-tailed coat. Investigation speedily revealed to tbe hunter that the dead, man was his late tramp guest, and also ex plained the manner of his sudden and curious taking off. He had evidently ascended tbe tree (the upper branches being broken and bent as by the swift downward passage of some heavy body) doubtless to look over tbe country, to make sure of his course of travel. While so engaged he had fallen headlong. In his downward course his long coat tails bad wound themselves about the lower limb of the tree (some fifteen feet from the ground) and had, by the weight and action of the bottle of whisky in the pocket, become firmly and fatally knotted there. Tbe coat, fastened at the throat by a stout buckskin string, had been jerked up over the head, hope? lessly entangling the arms and shutting off respiration. Thus singularly doomed, the tramp had quickly died. There was nothing on the person of tbe unfortunate to indicate identity, and at the foot of the fatal tree on the wild mountain side there is now a nameless grave. Will Iron Mines be Abandoned ? "I was talking With Mr. Chamberlain the other day," said Judge Tompkins, "who is a practical man of our coal and iron company. He made a startling suggestion. Said be, "the time may come when all tbe iron mines of this country will be abandoned. Tbe most generally diffused metal on earth is aluminum. It is found almost invariably in clay, especially in red clay. It is now extracted from clay by a very expen? sive and tedious process, at a cost of more than five hundred dollars a ton. Some one will invent a process for get? ting aluminum out of clay by a rapid and cheap process. Then farewell to iron mines.'" "I asked him what was tbe value of aluminum." "He replied that it has thr.e times tbe strength of steel, and only one-third its weight. This makes it, of course, tbe most valuable of metals. It was only ' discovered in 1828. It is bright, and it never tarnishes. Louis Napoleon offered six thousand dollars for a process for extracting it from clay, and two small bars of aluminum were presented to him by a French chemist as the result. It was enormously expensive, but Napoleon had works established for extracting it, and he used it as a substitute for the silver eagles that were borne above the armies of France. It has all the beauty of silver, is more lasting, stainless, and has only one-fourth the weight of silver. The eagles of France are thus made more resplendent, more enduring, and seventy five per cent lighter in weight. Ton look out for aluminum. Some one will yet invent a process for digging up common dirt and extracting therefrom this best of all metal."?Atlanta Constitution. Grow Ball-Frogs for Market, St. Louis, April 7.?There is a town in Arkansas called Atlanta, at least there is a post office by that name, and some houses are scattered . promiscuously through the miry vicinity. Atlanta nes? tles snugly in the midst of a charming Bwamp, where snakes and toads are wont to congregate, and where such a thing as soil bears the same relation to reality that an algebraic equation bears to a known quantity. The inhabitants doubt not but what there is soil under Atlanta, but the trouble is to get beneath the superficial stratum of swamp and reach tbe great depth at which it is supposed soil might be found. The Arkansas agent of the Ealy Mercantile company, was asked to send in a report on Atlanta. He has just sent it, and in it he brings to light a new industry. The swamp being unsuited to the growing of grain, tbe inhabitants have suited themselves to the circumstances, and now grow bull? frogs for the market. They have excel? lent seed, and the growths have .been magnificent until last year, when the whole crop hopped away before.it was ripe. This was very discouraging, but when the time came another crop was put in, and at last reports it was doing well, though there are indications that the precedent set by the last crop may be followed this year, as several of the more mature frogs have begun peregrinating about the swamps already. When the yield does not takjp unto itself legs and hop away it is sold. Ealy's agent is endeavoring to make a contract for one thousand bushel of frogs to be delivered out of the first crop that can he detained until it thoroughly ripens. ? Colonel Higginson says in Harper's Bazar that when he "was planning in the autumn of 1861 to enlist a regiment for the civil war, it occurred to him to invite the celebrated John B. Gough to go as chaplain, Bince his personal magnetism and eloquence, although he was not a clergyman, would be felt through the whole union army. . On inquiry it turned out that Mr. Gough was absolutely fettered by his own large earnings and profuse charities: he could easily,earn $50 or $100 a day the year round by lecturing; but all this large income was mortgaged in advance to young men whom he was educating and poor families whom he was supporting, bo that he absolutely could not afford to stop work for a moment. Had be been poorer, he could have gone." ? For the first time in its history, Africa will figure in an international exposition next year. France intends to set apart a considerable space in the coming World's Fair to the great region in the western Soudan which it has occu? pied. The work of collecting the pro? ducts of the country is already well advanced, and it is proposed to transport an entire African village to tbe grounds of tbe Exposition, where tbe natives will be shown engaged in their usual occupa? tions and industries. It might not be a bad idea for America to send over a village or two, just to show how the original African has been improved by transplanting. ? Dr. Winthrop F.

St. Paul, April 5?A special to the Dispatch from New Hampton, Iowa, says: A terrible accident occurred to? day about four miles WeBt of this town, on the Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad, by which at least a dozen persons lost their lives and from fifteen to twenty were injured. The train, which left Chi? cago at 11,30 yesterday morning and was due here at 2.13 this morning, passed here nearly on time, and when about fonr miles to the West plunged into a creek which was swollen by an immense amount of water which has been running off for the past few days, and in addition a gorge of ice was formed which carried away a portion of the bridge. There was nothing to show that there was any dan? ger ahead, and the train plunged into the swollen stream while running at full speed. The engine and three coaches were immediately submerged. Such of the trainmen and passengers as were uninjured, rescued a number of passen? gers from the submerged cars, dragging them through the windows. Up to 11 o'clock this morning six dead ladies had been taken out from the wreck, and three men are kuown to be under tbe debris, through which tbe water is pouring, It is also stated that the engineer and fire? man were instantly killed or were caught in the cab and drowned before aid could reach tbem; but tbe confusion and excitement is so great that it is difficult to secure any reliable information. In addition to the passengers known to be killed, from fifteen to twenty are more or less seriously injured. A number are so dangerously hurt that it is feared tbey cannot recover. As soon as a trainman, who had escaped injury, could be spared, he was dispatched .to the station, and relief was telegraphed for from* Mason City. Telegrams for relief were also sent to Charles City and other places near by, but it was not until several hours after the accident that a train arrived with physicians to care for tbe injured, and additional helping hands to aid in rescuing those still confined in the wreck. -.- ? c ? ?The infant of Mrs. Thomas G.

George N. Hawes died at Millers burg, Ky., last Thursday. During tbe cholsra scourge of 1849 young Hawes had a violent attack of cholera and to all appearances died.

Had this eminent physician lived in our day, and known tbe merits of Ayer's Pills as an aperient, he would certainly have recommended them, as so many of his distinguished successors are doing. The celebrated Dr. Farnsworth, of Norwich, Conn., recommends Ayer's Pills as the best of all remedies for " Intermittent Fevers." Dr. I. E. Fowler, of Bridgeport, Conn., says: "Ayer's Pills are highly and universally spoken of by the people about here. I make daily use of them in my practice." Dr. Mayhew, of New Bedford, Mass., says : " Having prescribed many thou? sands of Ayer's Pills, in my practice, I can unhesitatingly pronounce them tho best cathartic iu use." The Massachusetts State Assayer, Dr. A. A. Hayes, certifies : " I have made a careful analysis of Ayer's Pills. They contain the active principles of well known drugs, isolated from inert mut? ter, which plan is, chemically speaking, of great importance to their usefulness.

WM is this Disease that I& Coming >. Upon Us? ^*T' lake a thief at night it steals in upon us unawares. The pa? tients have pains about _ the chest and sides, and sometimes in the back. They feel dull and sleepy; the moiith has a bad taste, especially . in the morning. A sort of sticky slime collects about the teeth. The appetite is poor. There is a feeling like a heavy load on the stomach; sometimes a faint, all gone sensation at the pit of the stomach which food does not satisfy. The eyes are sunken, the hands and i'eet become cold and clammy. After a while a cough sets in, at first dry, but after a few months it is attend? ed with a greenish-colored ex pectoration. The patient feels tired all the while, and sleep does not seem. to afford any rest. After a time he becomes nervous, irritable and gloomy, and has evil forebodings. There is a giddiness, a sort of whirl? ing sensation in the head when rising up suddenly. The bow? els become costive; the skin is dry and hot at times; the blood becomes thick and stagnant; the whites of the eyes become tinged with yellow; the urine is scanty and high colored, de? positing a sediment after stand? ing. There is frequently a spitting up of the food, some? times with a sour taste and sometimes with a sweetish, taste; this is frequently at? tended with palpitation of the heart; the vision becomes im? paired, with spots before the eyes; there is a feeling of great prostration and weakness. All of. these symptoms are in turn present. It is thought that nearly one-third of our popu? lation has this disease in seme of its varied forms. It has been found that phy? sicians have mistaken the cause of this disease. Some have treated it for a liver complaint, others for kidney disease, etc., etc., but none 01 these kinds of treatment have been attended with success; for it is really constipation and dyspepsia. It is also found that Snaker Ex? tract of Roots, or Mother Sei gel's Curative , Syrup, when properly prepared will remove this disease in all its stages. Care must be taken, however, to secure the genuine article, IT WILL SELL BETTER THAN" COTTON. Mr. John C. Hemptinstall, of Chulanrmee, Cleburn 'Co., Ala, writes: "My wife has been so much benefited by Shaker Extract of Roots or Seigel's Syrup that she says she would rather be without part of her food than without the medicine. It has done her more good than the doctors and all other medicines put together. I would ride twenty miles to get it into the hands of any suf? ferer if he can get it in no other way.

Those interested in Fruit and Fruitgrow? ing are cordially invitedsto inspect this the largest nursery in the State and one among the largest in the South. The proprietor has for many-years vis? ited the leading Nurseries North and West, and corresponded with those of foreign countries, gathering every fruit that was calculated to suit the South both native and foreign. The reputation of Pomona Hill Nurseries is such that many agents going out from Greensboro representing other nurseries, try to leave the impression that they are representing the*e nurseries. Why do they do it? Let the public answer. I have in stock growing (and can show visitors the same) the largest and best stock of trees, &c., ever shown or seen in any two nurseries in North Carolina, consisting of apple, peach, pear, cherry plum, grape, Japanese persimmon, Japa? nese plum, apricots, nectarine, Eusslan apricot, mulberrv, quinces.
