prevent and punish fraud and intimlda-
tions, to co operate with the district attor-
Eney. Similar instructions to those given
Mr.. Leonard have been sent to District
Attorney Northup, of South Carolina.
Several radical republican congressman
are in Washington, and they all unite in
the opinion that the views of the Presi-
regarding his duty to the south have
changed very much since they last talked
with him, and they congratulate each
other upon the fact that there need not be
any longer any doubt of the presidents s
republicanism. Congressman Harry
White. of Pennsylvania, was asked to-day
what he considered the cause of the presi-
dents change 1T was brought about. p"
he replied, looking very wise. by the To-
gic of events.
Notice has already been received here Of
the intention ofseveral defeated candidates
in the recent congressional election to con-
test the seats of their more successful ri
walls. Among the seats contested will be
those of DIR. Loring. of Massachusetts,;
Hull. oe Florida, by Bisbee the republican;
Tellman. of South Carolina, by Smalls;
OConner, of the same state, by Rainey,
and the seats of the two republicans who
will bring certificates from North Carolina.
It is understood, too, that Gen. Albright
will contest the election of Klotz in Penn
sylvania.

An Article in the New York Indepen
dent, Sept. 12th. 1879. says:


While the producing class have found
great difficulty in making ends meet,
those who have been keen enough to fore
see the DRIFT OF events, have turned their
attention toward Wall street, and made
handsome amounts by simply taking ad-
vantage of opportunities offered there by
tho exigencies of the times. Stocks, bonds
and money securities are merely tokens of
the surplus wealth of the country, and the
pressure of circumstances makes it necess-
ary that hundreds of millions of dollars
worth of these should change hands every
day through the New Y ork Stock Exchange.
There is always a margin of profit for some
one in these transfers, and it is these mar
ginal profits3that attract people from all
parts of the country to secure share IN
them. The extensive banking and broke
rage house of Messrs. Lawrence & Co., 81
Broad ST., N. Y, has introduced the most
popular and profitable style of operating in
stocks yet known which is adapted to the
understanding and means of all classes.
This is the Combination Method, lgiving
to each member all the advantageous of
unlimited capital and the largest expert
ence in operating, A party wishing to
take turn at the market can place with
Messrs, Lawrence & Co. $25. $50, 500
or $500, as the case may be, and obtain
shares in one of their combinations, and
from these sums realize profit of from
five to ten times the amount invested with
in thirty days. Many of their customers
are in receipt of fabulous profits. One
man made over $1,l00 from 5000 Anoth-
er $3.50 from 1926. We have thoroughly
investigated the combination system, and
are satisfied that it is founded upon cor
rect and safe principles, assuring to those
who avail themselves of it a reliable bust
ness, which can beLpErsued regularly or oc-
casionally, as self interest may dictate, No
energetic person need be without an in.
come while the combination plan of ope-
rating in stocks is kept in working order by
Messrs. Lawrence & Co. The press and
and public generally endorse the combina
tion plan for its successful results The
standing and reliability of Messrs. Law
renee 4 Co. is we'll known to the oldest
and best business houses in the city,
