Birmingham. Alabama. the Magic City" as it
is called, was first conceived by a convention or
business men in 1854. A railroad was projected
to open a way 10 the great wealth of coal and
iron in which the country surrounding abounds.
Work was begun on the road but was abandoned
until after the civil war, when work was resumed
and norfh-and-south road WAS also projected

The "Elyton Land Company" proceeded TO lay
off the city into streets. parks, ETC., which was
incorporated in Dec ,er of 1871. II was called
Birmingham, and now has a population of over
10000. The most remarkable feature of the city
is the rapid appreciation in value of real estate

and Promotes Digestion.
Westminster Rsview.
There is a widespread superstition cher.
ished by the great majority of the peo-
pie that to sleep Immediately after they
have taken food is to endanger health, to
favor the onset of apOplexy. etc.-a SUPER
stition based on the assumption that
during sleep the brain is normally con-
gested. There is, no doubt such thing
as cOngestiye sleep, but during normal
sleep the brain is anamic. When person
has taken fairly abundant lunch or din
ner the stomach demands special influx
of blood wherewith TO accomplish its work
of digestion: no organ can more easily COM
ply. with that demand than the brain,
which, when i'm full activity, is suffused
with maximum amount of the vital fluid.
But a derivation OF blood from
the brain to the stomach can only
ally full-blooded and vigorous per-
sons. on the condition that the cerebral
functions be meanwhile partially or wholly
suspended. Hence many people. after TAX
ing dinner, feel Indisposed for mental ac-
ton, and not a few long for sleep. The al
ready partially an9mic brain would fam
yield mp TO the stomach n still further sup
ply OF blood and yield itself M 10 refresh
ing sleep. Doing so it gains new strength;
meapwhile digestion proceeds energetic
ally; and soon body and mind are again
of Lie.
Out SUPERSTITION, t0e tlllu Oh lguOidQce,
intervenes declares that sleep during diges-
ton is dangerous. admonishes the would
be sleepers TO struggle against their peril
Gus inclination. and though telling them
that after dinner they must sit a while,
reminds them of the adage '.after supper
walk mile" The millions of its victims
continue therefore, the strife To which it
condemns them, and ignore the suggestions

has fallen through because the Southern
branch, while it is perfectly willing to go
to heaven or the communion table with col

healed and peace restored; but prejudice
against color is sin SO deep and rests on a
pride so ingrained that even grace needs
time in which to overcome its influence.
