Gagged competent instructors and tho curriculum

O'Clock P. NJ. on Sunday when they were fright

TIE GEORGIA LoTTERY.-Broads street has always
been the financial centre of Charleston, where the
moneyed men most did congregate. Though
somewhat shorn of its past glories, i. still pre-
serves this reputation, and is yet known as the re-
sort of the bankers and brokers'. Recently quite
addition has been made to this locality, and the
lower story of the Elmore Insurance is now occu-
pied by the George State Lottery. 1t was per-
haps wise choice of location, as it was but
natural that men who were desirous of obtaining
money should apply to those parties that offered
tie greatest inducements. The Georgia Lottery
is managed on fair and equitable terms, and the
parties investing run but little risk as the chances
are nearly all in their favor
