Pacific coast aud transferred his base
of operations to the New York Stock
Exchange, all the shrewd tinanciers

nations that paid immense profits.
By the combination method of oper-
ating in stocks, Messrs. Lawrence &
Co, Bankers, New York, unite orders
of thousands of customers, in differ
ent sums, into one vast capital, and
operate them as a mighty whole, divid-
ing profits pro rata among sharehOld-
ers every tnirty days. Capital in any
amount from $40 to 500 600 can be
used with great success in these pools.
$25 would pay 500 profit. $500 would
make SIS 600 or 10 per cent. on the stock
d1riug the month. Messrs. Lawrence
& Co.'s new circular (mailed free) gives
''two unerriDg rules for success" and

CHESTER, Aug. 9.-The steamer
Mary Morgan, with moonlight ex-
cursion numbering several hundred
persons on board, collided last night
one mile above Fort Delaware, with
the produce freight propeller Pier
repont, in fifteen feet of water.
The passengers and crew of the
Pierrepont, numbering 22 persons,
were taken on board of the Morgan
and landed here. She was struck
amidships and sank in fifteen min
utes. The Morgan had filled badly,
broken, and the forward bulkheads
filled with water, but the iron hull
and water-tight compartments pre-
vented her sinking with her living
freight. The damage to both ves'
sells will amount to several thousand
dollars, besides the loss of the
Pierrepont's freight, which included
three thousand baskets of peaches
and large quantity of other
fruit.
