The best Plan.

The most profitable plan for operating in
stocks is that of uniting capital of various
sums by combining or pooling the orders of
thousands of customers and using them as
one mighty whole, which has been done so
successfully by Messrs. Lawrence & Co.,
Bankers, 81 Exchange Place. New York City.
BY this cooperative system each investor
is placed on an equal footing with the larg-
est operator, and profits are divided pro
rata among shareholders every thirty days.
An investment of $40 would pay $50 max
ing 5 per cent. on the stock during the
month. $25 would return $3.50, or per
cent; 800 would make $1,000, or 10 per
cent, and so on according to the market.
Frank Leslie's illustrated Newspaper, June
29jh, says: THE Combination Method of
operating in stocks is the most successful
ever adopted" New York Independent,
September 18th, says: The Combination
System is founded upon correct business
principles and no person need be without
an income while it is kept working by
Messrs. Lawrence q Co." The firms new

biggest German institutions in this city,
was organized by nineteen of our citizens,
under the venerable Mr.. jain, who recent
ly celebrated his one hundred birthday.
At first the members of the Society were
bitterly hated and hooted at by the Eng
disappearing portion of this community.
So far did the latter's hatred of the Society
go as to culminate in bloody riot on Pen
tecost Monday, 1856. This day had been
chosen by the Society to attend banner
dedication and picnic of the Covington
Turner'S, The picnic was disturbed several
times during the day, but the Turner's, who
were armed with guns, repelled every at
tack. On their return to the city they es-
corted the Covington Turner'S home, when
Marshal Clinton Butts attempted to arrest
one of the members for firing at citizen.
A riot ensued, but the Turner'S remained
victorious.
While taking the Newport Turner's home
the popuace arose in mass and prevented
the body from getting on the Newport ferry.
The feeling became SO hot that severa
rounds were fired at the Newportonians
Marshal Butts and Deputy Sheriff Harvey
were both badly wounded. A large num-
ber of the Turner'S were afterwards in
dicted but after long trial every one of
them was honorably acquitted.
This was the last opposition that the
Turner's met with. Since then the Society
has steadily grown up and to-day it is one
of the best organized and most respected in
the country.
Prior to 1859 when their present head
quarters, on Walnut street. was erected at
a cost of $4,000, their meetings were held
in frame building on the site now occu-
pied by their present quarters. Mr.. V.
Beckman was the architect.
The quarters set aside for their gymnastic
exercises is situated on the first floor and is
one of the finest and most accommodating
in the United States The exercises are un
der the direction of Prof. Albin Stecher.

New York, May 10.-Rumors are cur.

conflict. Leagues have been formed in al
most every ward in Brooklyn, and the prin
ciples Of commune have been openly sdvo,
Gated. Secret meetings have been held OF
late, at which speeches against the Govern
ment and Union were made, and the most
wild and revolutionary doctrines discussed
The authorities of Brooklyn did not oppose
these meetings.
At present, however, matters seem to be
assuming a serious aspect. The authorities
have learned that the Leagues are drilling
and arming and that active preparations
are in progress for conflict. Prompt
action was thereupon ordered by the mu
nicipal officers On Tuesday the members
of the Twenty-third Regiment were ordered
out without delay and in as quiet manner
as possible to take their fatigue uniforms
with overcoas and knapsacks, to theil
armory. Similar orders were issued to the
