The Atlantic and Great Western Railway (378 miles in
length) is the middle link of a grand national live of 6 feet
gauge, 1,200 miles in length, from New York through the
great States of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and
Illinois to St. Louis, of which about 800 miles have been many
years in operation. It possesses extraordinary facilities for
construCtion, having no tunnels, no deep cuttings, few
bridges, and no ferries ; avoiding the Allegheny mountains
on the south, and occupying the natural channel of trade be-
tween them and the lakes on the north. It traverses so re
of the most fertile portions of New York, Pennsylvania, and
the "Garden of Ohio." It passes through the large shire
towns or centres of 14, counties in the State of Ohio, with
more than 1,000,000 of inhabitants, and a taxable property of
260,000,000 dollars, and accommodates 17 cities and towns in
New York and Pennsylvania, heretofore without railway

'The differing laws of the States of New York, Pennsylva-
mia, and Ohio, through which the line runs, render separate
organisations necessary, though practically the whole is one
line. The present issue is confined to the bonds of New York,
that section beinginow finished, a considerable portion of the
works in Pennsylvania is al =o finished, and the Ohio section
Is in a very forward state, and can be completed In 1861. As
each of these sections is opened, the bonds will be issued to
the public, all the funds being provided in the meantime by
calls on stock and advances by the contractors. -
Tim Atlantic and Great Western connects with the New
York and Erie (of which it is a continuation) at Salamanca,
-about 400 miles from New-York; and the New York and Erie
Railway Company deem the connexion to be of such import-
ance, from the large and valuable traffic which it will con-
centrate and throw on their road, that they have covenanted
to pay to the Atlantic and Great Western a bonus of 10 per
cent. on the gross receipts, from freight and passengers, dur-
ing five years from completion, and 6 per cent. for another
term of five years thereafter. This bonus is especially appro-
priated to securing the interest on bonds.
The association of M. De Salamanca with the Atlantic and
Great Western Railway is a voucher that the merits of the
enterprise are not overstated, and an assurance that the whole
line will be rapidly completed and its resources developed.
The bonds are secured by a first registered mortgage, con-
stituting a lien on the income and all corporate rights, privi.
leges, lands, franchises, plant, and property of the railway ;
and give the holder the right of conversion into shares at par
until let January, 1864.
The bond's of the present issue are of 1,000 dollars each, re-
deemable at par in twenty years, and transferable without
stamp or endorsement, with interest coupons attached, and
will be paid on the Ist of January and Ist of July in each
year, at the Bank of London, Threadneedle-street, London,
and at the banking-house of Messrs. Duncan, Sherman, and
Co., New York.

The bonds wiU be issued at 80 per cent., or £lBO sterling
per bond—to include the coupon due Ist January, 1861, and
will be delivered on lst November, or• earlier, at option of
buyers,
The road represented by these bonds is finished, its cost is
known and liquidated, and its interest and dividends will be
paid from its actual earnings.
The value of the security offered may bebest appreciated by
comparison with the four great lines of the same system.
The total Income of these lines, for the last four years, has
been as follows

Baltimore New York
Erie. Pennsylvania. and Ohio. Central.
Dols. Dols. Dols. Dols.
1856 6,349,050 4,720,193 4,35.5,951 7,773,169
1857 5,742,606 4,855,669 4,616,998 8,027,251
1859 5,151,616 5,185,310 3,856,485 6,528,412
1859 4,482,149 5,30,355 3,618,618 6,200,818.
And these receipts divided by the mileage obtaining traffic,
gives the following receipts per mile :
Baltimore New York
Erie. Pennsylvania. and Ohio. Central
Dols. Dole. Dols. Dols.
1856 11,237 12,722 - 11,572 12,848
1857 10.164 13,088 12,182 13,258
1858 9,117 13,976 10,175 10,790
1859 7,933 14,453 9,547 10,240

Average 9,612 13,559 10,869 11,788
—The contract cost of the Atlantic and Great Western Rail-
way is 37,000 dots. per mile, say £7,400 sterling. Hence, an
avcrage receipt per annum equivalent to that of the four
great lines, will give an annual return upon the whole cost,
capital and bonds, of 17'35 per cent., allowing 50 per cent. for
working expenses_
Application for bonds must be made to the Brokers,
Copies of Prospectus, with Map and Reports of the En-
gineer-in-Chief, may be had from the Brokers ; or at the
Office of the Company, No. 11, St. Helen's-place, Bishops-
gate-street, London.

ALBERT and MEDICAL LIFE ASSURANCE
COMPANY, 7, Waterloo place, Pall-mall, London, S.W.

Establfslied 1838.

The Business of the Medical, Invalid, and General Life
Assurance Societyhaving been amalgamated with the Albert
Life Assurance Company, the united businesses will hence-
forth be carried on under the above title.

Accumulated Fund exceeds £500,000
Subscribed Capital 447,180
Paid up Capital
Annual Income from Life Premiums upwards of 220,000
The new business is: now progressing at the rate of more
than £25,000 per annum.

tion of liabilities (end of 1858), and the statements of accounts,
it appeared at that time that the surplus in favour of the
Albert business alone, after providing for every liability, was
£192,925 2s. lid.

" Dr. fickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette.
" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhaea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.
" We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ;
bat the moderate price at which the brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—
