Americans are proverbial for the avidity
and commendablc zeal with which they
participate in enterprises having for their
object the development Of our national re-
sources. At one time Railroads at
another "Coal then Cooper" or
"Iron," and more recently "On" have
been the all llabsorbing topics.
In all these several enterprises, as will
be recollected, those who first took hold Of

I prices Of lodges, will necessarily be less de-
| sirable than that now TO be had--thereby

occasion now presented, Of securing " ori-
ginal interests" On opportunity Of then
disposing of the large amount of stock each
holder receives, at O handsome advance.

lowing PROSPEROUS is respectfully presen
