SOMETHING NEW AGAIN.-The talent OF
the Staunton ladies for getting UP entertain
ments as novel as attractive, is something WON
derful. Invariably we find them Introducing
something entirely unprecedented in the line
of amusements, which eclipses all of their
former successes, and sets the staid Staunto-
mans to wondering what will come next. For
have been trying to get up circulating library
i'm connection with the Young Mems Christi,n
Association, which should be supplied with the
works Of all the renowned authors, and should
secure each publication of worth, as it is issued
FROM the press. For the sum of three dollars
per annunl, anyone might have the privilege of
reading the books SO collected, and in that way
the most healtlflll literature would be afforded
to all at very triaing cost. Various efforts in
different directions were made, but nothing
definite was accomplished until the ladies, with
their usual vigor, took the matter iuto
their own hands, and after forming q board
with Mrs. D. A. Kavser as President, and Col.
(the only gentleman admitted into the manage
ment Of the affair, set to work to furnish an
entirely new depository for the peoples loose
change. After severa! plans had been sug
gested and abandoned, it was determined to
hold grand Bazaar at the Grange Hall OH the
lst and End of February, at which the differ
ent Booths should represent the different ma
tions, and thus make the exhibition interna-
tional and the precursor of the Centennial
At these Booths the different presiding mana
gers will be dressed in appropriate costumes
with suitable flags, emblems, etc., and offer for
sale the various wares. chattcls, fruits and
yiands OF their respective cimes.
The following ladies, each with several lady
assistants, will be in charge Of the Booths

How To Make Money.

We will state that the surest, best and
speediest way to ''multiply and increase"
is to call at No. IL Wall street. New York,
and consult with Alex rockingham II Co.
These gentlemen, who have long been
identified with the history and affairs of
Wall street are unusually skilled in mone-
tary affairs, and in everything appertsning
to speculation, are uneXcelled for ability
and proficiency. 1t may also be said that
OF the many Brokers in that city they are
not only the most popular, but also the
most successful, best patronized, and most
widely known in or near the vicinity Of
Wall Street.
Among the customers OF the house of
Alex rockingham n Co, are some OF our
leading and representative citizens. who
are mainly indebted to the labors OF this
firm for much Of the wealth they now enjoy.
During the long and successful eXper-
fence OF Messrs. Alex. rockingham a Co.,
in this city they have earned for themselves
an enviable reputation for honesty, integ-
rity and faith, and enjoy a business almost
colossal in its proportions. In fact, the
amount OF business done by this house in
the course of year Is something wonder
full, and often forms the subject Of COM
ment. 1t needs but visit TO their spacious
offices in Wall street to prove the truth of
the above statement.
How they manage to convert 80 to so,
$50 10 $40, $40 into $50, and SO on, is
secret which they alone can explain but
that they succeed in doing SO is n fact too
we'll known TO admit of doubt. Ii you
would safely sud probably invest Your
money, do not hesitate to favor this firm
with your cash and confidence. That by so
doing you will reap an abundant reward,
the experience OF thousands OF our best
citizens attest. The necessity of taking
such course in these times of tottering
banks and financial stringency must be APP
parent to the most Indifferent and careless
observer.
Messrs' Alex. rockingham n Co., are
prepared to invest money 10 any amount in
the best securities, aud in every transac-
ton in which they may be engaged guar.
