Inter-
oceanic Honduras Railway, has instructed the London and
County Bank to receive applications for the same.
The Loan will be represented by bonds to bearer of £lOO each,
bearing interest until redeemed at the rate of 10 per cent. per
annum, payable half-yearly, on the Ist January and let July in
each year, at The London and County Bank.
The whole Loan will be redeemed within 15 years by an ac-
cumulative Sinking Fund of 3 per cent. per annum, to be applied
by annual drawings, the said drawings to take place on the 31st
December in each year, in the presence of the Honduras Minister
in London, a representative of Messrs. Bischoffshebn and Gold-
schmidt, and a Notary Public, and the Bonds so drawn will be
paid within one month thereafter.
This Loan is raised to complete the Interoceanic Railway, and
to place the line from sea to sea in thorough and efficient work-
ing order. As in the case of the previous Loan, the proceeds,
of the present Loan will be paid into the hands of trustees ap-
pointed for that purpose.
The entire Railway and its revenue is mortgaged to the bond-
holders of all denominations, and the proceeds of the State
domains will be applied in a like manner.
The first section is contracted to be finished next November.
Messrs. Waring Brothers and McCandlish have undertaken,
under heavy penalty, to complete the second section at the end
of 1871, and a new contract has been signed with them to com-
plete the entire Railway from Puerto Caballos, on the Atlantic
coast to the Bay of Fonseca, on the Pacific. and deliver it over in
efficient working order in the autumn of 1872.
The Railway is under the protection of the British Government
by a treaty which declares ;—•

" of the route or road herein contemplated, and also to.
" secure for the benefit of mankind the uninterrupted
" advantages of such communication from sea to sea,
" her Britannic Majesty recognises the rights of sove-
" reignty and property of Honduras in and over the line of
"the said road, and for the same reason guarantees post-
" tively and efficaciously, the entire neutrality of the
" same. And when the proposed road shall have been
" completed her Britannic Majesty equally engages, in
