Phenomenon of ,he Fow, Kingdom.

Phenomenon of Ihe Fowl Kingdom.
We were shown yesterday at the
commission house of Messrs. J. w.
Gaut & Son, the strangest phenome-
non of the fowl kingdom ever before
presented to cur gaze. 1t was a pair,
or at least couple, whether pair or
not no one knows, of very strange
looking fowls, which were purchased
by Roe Gaut, of the firm, from coop
Of chickens In market. They seem to
partake of the nature of both the
turkey and guinea, as though they
were q cross, yet there is something
about their appearance unlike either
of these or of any other species of
fowl known ia this section of
country. They are about as large as
half-grown turkeys, and their head
and feet somewhat resemble the tur-
keys, while the. shape of the body.
the manner in which they carry their
tails, and their chirp is like the
guinea somewhat. The color Is in the
main rather whitish or cream colored,
with rather lead colored feathers on
top, and they have very strange aps
pearance generally. The only account
given of the them is the party
from whom they were purchased, who
says they came up last spring while
little with guinea hen and her brood.
They are shy and very vicious. Their
owner, as we understand, proposes to
have their species thoroug bly, investi-
gated, and it may prove wonderful
discovery. A great many persons
were in to see them, and no one has
ever before seen anything resembling
them

The way vanderbiIt succeeded.

The Way Vanderbilt Succeeded.
When Commodore Vanderbilt was
running steam boats, he beat all rivals
by crowding on steam to the utmost,
and even running down his enemy, if
necessary, to accomplish a triumph
When he went into railroading, he
adopted a much shrewder and more
successful way, by uniting vast lines
and their tributaries under his own
management, thus capturing all rivals,
by sharing with them the immense
pool profits that were made by his
s3illful manipulation. Messrs. Law
renee & Co, Bankers, N. Y, accom-
plish much greater success in stock
operations by their new Com bination
Method of dealing. By this system
the orders of thousands of customers
are pooled Into one vast sum and co.
operated under the most experienced
management, thus giving to each
shareholder all the benefits of large
capital and best skill. Profits divided
monthly. Any amount from SIS to
$500 can be used with great success.
SIS WILLY make SIS profit. $50 would
return S 20 or 8 per cent. on the stock
during the month, according to the
market. The new circular (mailed
