PROSPECTS FOR BUSINESS.
The railroad connection between Omaha and the
Fast is now complete anil the earnings of tho
Union Pacific ON the sections already finished Toy
the first two weeks in May were $4,000. These
sectional earnings n the road progresses Will much
more than pay the interest ON the Companvs
bonds. aud The through business over the only line
Of railroad between the Atlantic and p. chc must
hc immense.
VALUE AND SECURITY or TIE BONDS.
The Company respectfully submit. that tho
above statement OF facts fully demonstrates the
security of their Bonds. md additional proof
they would suggest that the Bonds now Offered
are les than ten million dollars on jl1 miles of
road, on which over twenty million dollars ha>e
already been expenl Jed ON 800 miles OF this
road the cals are now running. and the remaining
lS7 miles are nearly completed
At the present rate OF premium on gold these
bonds pay an annual interest ON the present cost OF
NINE FER CENT,
and it il believed that on the completion oi the
road, like the Government Bonds, they Will go
above par. The Company intend to sell but n
limited amount at the present low rate and retain
the right To advance the price at their option.

After twenty wears experience in the manufac'
turc 81 Stoves, we became convinced some six
years SINCE that a vast amount Of money was
being expended 10y the people Of this country, in
buying cheap and almost worthless stoves, large
portion ui which was wasted; AID that true eeon-
omv consisted in huying the best stoves that could
lie made. no; Sith,t.,n ing the price was higher
With this view we proceeded to construct the
American Cooking Stove and spared no pains ~
expense to makci tho h'st aud most perfect stove
that could he made. Aud we have experimental
with il, and careful, watched its operation FIR the
last .iv wears and when an Improvement suggest
ed Itself, we have at once adopted it. aud we have
several Of these improvements secured 10y letters
patent. IN this manner. we do nos hesitate to
say, we have brought 1t 10 higher state Of per-
lection than has heretofore been attained in COX
ing stoves. The recent improvements rs this
stove has added largely to its convenience snd
/ effectiveness. H. all the varieties Of stoves we
manufacture, we study usefulness durability,
convenience and economy in operation, rather
than chcapncss in piicc, and in 80 doing we are

Changes in the Cabinet.

The Cabinet makers occupation is about
gone. For some time past we have been
assured almost daily by some Of the news
papers Of Washington and other cities,
that important changes were to be made
at once in President JoHSsoS's Cabinet
We have contended all along that this was
mere rumor, there being no foundation
upon which to predicate these reports.
Now we see these journals are giving it
up, and sagely remark that there is to bt
no change. What the next sensation will
be it is impossible to say. Most anything
that is within the range Of probability
would doubtless be acceptable in these
dull times for news.
