nue. —We are again obliged to appeal to our fellow
citizens for aid to sustain our institution. We are
thankful for the liberal support we have received, and
believe the expending of no similar sum has added so
much to the comfort of our soldiers; in addition to
which we have been compelled by circumstances to
assume temporary care of thousands of refugees, freed
men,and rebel deserters, nearly all of whom would
have been forced to seek charity at your doom, and,
domiciled in ths lowest haunts of the city, w*uld have
caused much annoyance and disturbance. They have
remained with us generally but a few days, and places
have been found for them away from the city, where
their 1* bor was in great request.
The arrangements for the «&re of the soldiers In our
city have added largely to cur reputation for hospitality
and brotherly love, and to continue the good work the
aectstary means must be furnished. Funds forwarded
by letter to our committee, or handed to either of the

V/ tain method.to.make a fortune in Oil operations is
to invest lour greenbacks in good and cheap oil lands,

In this way you have nothing to lose, and all to gain.
All the fabulous fortunes made in Oil have been made
by pnrchet-ing the land and stoeking it, A word to the
Wise is sufficient.

money on as favorable terms as those who have their
thousand!, I offer for sale, in interests of $260 each,
