Country Clubs, Hand and Wagon Peddlers, and small 
stores (of which class we are supplying many thousands, all 
of which are doing well), can have their orders promptly and 
faitlituUy lined ; and in case of clubs, can have each party's 
liame marked on their packages as directed by sending their 
orders to Xos. 31 and 33 Vesey-st. 
Our friends arc getting up Clubs in most towns throughout 
the countrv. and for which we feel very grateful. Some of 
our Clubs send orders weekly, some not so often, while 
others keep a standing order to be supplied with a given 
quantity each week, or at stated periods. And in all cases 
(where a sufflcient time has elapsed) Clubs have repeated 
their orders. 
Parties sending Club Or other orders tor loss than thirty 
dollars! had bettor send Post-Offlee drafts, or money with 
their orders, to save the expense ot collections by express ; 
but larger orders we will forward by express, to collect on 
delivery. 
■\Ve return thanks to parties who have taken an inter- 
est in getting up Clubs. And when any of them come to 
New.York, we shall be pleased to have them call upon us 
and make themselves known. 
Hereafter we will send ft complimentary package to the 
party getting up the CLUB, of $S0 and over. Our profits 
are small, but we will be as liberal as we can afford.

A CARD 
TO YOUNG and MIDDLE-AGED MEN. 
There never was such an opportunity for our young men 
to make their mark in the world as .at preseut. The great 
rebellion is over ; every stumbling-block to a glorious future 
Is removed ; and our country stands forth to-day the rich- 
est, proudest, most prosperous and inviting of any In the 
world. The North, South, East and West, are already gath- 
ering for the onward march ot improvement and prosperity, 
and the avenues ot Commerce, Agriculture. Trade, and Fi- 
nance are opening wider than ever before, and a hundred 
times more Invitingly. 
Tlie vast South, ahoundlug with a tropical wealth of clime 
and vcgct.atlon unknown to other countries, and possessing 
all the Clements, in Its geographical position and the re- 
sources ot its mines and soil, to make a people great and 
wealthy, is thrown open to the industry and cntorpitse of 
the young men ot the nation ; while the West, with its broad 
beautiful lands— the richest under the sun— and with silver 
and gold tor the millions, is beckoning them to come. 
I offer at my Institution at Poughkeepsie, N. Y., on the 
Hudson, and at Chicago, 111., the best system of Practical 
training ever devised to quality Young and Middle-Aged 
Men for active, successfnl busiuess, and guarantee situations 
to all graduates who desire and merit the assistance of the 
College Agencies. 
Let our Young and Middle-Aged men, onr artisans and 
clerks, men ot business, and the graduates of our colleges. 
North and South, avail themselves ot an opportunity which 
Is seldom offered in the history of a nation to acquire a com- 
petence and hew out for themselves an honorable career. 
Our Graduates as Bankers. Does this 
Course of Study Pay ] 
More than sixty ot ray graduates fill positions in the Banks 
and Banking-houses ot New-York city, and within the past 
six months I have been applied to directly for a number of 
our best Bankers, to fill responsible positions in Banks in 
different sections of the country. The Institution is largely 
represented in Wall-street, by some of our ablest men: 
Bowen in Fisk & Hatch, and bis brother in Ogden & to. s ; 
Palmer in Brown & Co.'s, and Merritt in Co. with Morgan 
Bros.', .are worthy representatives. The Broadway Bank, 
Meti-opolitan, Park. Central National, Fourth National, and 
Bank ot Commerce, have among their best men and officers 
those who owe their positions to tue practical training they 
received here. 
The Bank of Commonwealth has just added another to 
their list in the person ot Mr. G. H. Smith, who has so accept- 
ably filled the position as Teller in the Merchants' Bank of 
Pou-'hkoepsie, and the estimate that Bank puts upon his 
abili'ty, is shown by the responsible position they have given 
him and the salary (twenty-two hundred dollars tor the f^rst 
vear) paid him. So we might go on with an almost cudlcss 
list Of the six Banks In Poughkeepsie, they have all tested
