BANKING AND FINANCIAL.

FIRST MORTGAGE SIX PER CENT GOLD BONDS OF
THE ST. LOUIS AND ST. JOSEPH RAILROAD OF Mis-
soURI.-We are now closing out the balance of these
desirable Bonds at the very low price of S7t and &C
crued interest in currency. Total issue is limited to
less than sl4 900 per mile and secured by mortgage
the Company. valued at least at three times the
amount Of the Bonds thus making the security first
class in every respect aud one Of the most prOhabe
for investment now in the market. The price OF
these Bonds is about 80 per cent less than u y FVs-
ItCentieS and pay the same interest while the se-
curity is equally good The reason that we can re-
commend these Bonds highly is, FIRST; The
amount of Bonds per mile is only abont onehaf that
ON most of the roads in the country. Second: The
stock subscriptions furnish nearly all the means TO
build the road Third: These Bonds are secured by
q mortgage on the whole road roadway. rolling
stock depots machine shops warehouses, lands, &c,
and all the property Of the Company. toTh: For
the satisfaction and security OF the bondhoders the
mortgage is made to the Farmers Loan and Trust
Company (of New-YOTk, who are the Trns-
tees) where the principal and interest Is pay
able. Fffh: The bond money Is drawn by
the Railroad Company from the I. IL. & B. Co. at the
rate of about $4,000 per mile only as the road is ac
tually completed. Srtk: This road completes the
last link of the only direct route from 81 Louis to
Omaha also connecting with several OF the principal
lines from the East. thus forming direct through
line from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Serenh: lhe
country through which this road runs is the most
populOus as well the richest agricultural dstnos
in the State of Missouri, wlich Will furnish I IGcu
business enough to make Itself sustalnlngi WINE
the through business which must necessarily De very
large will make it of the best paying roads IN the
cOuntry EIGHTH: The general principle on which
these Bonds issued is such that we can recommend
them to our friends and the public as security which
is all that could be desired as to safety and pToh 70

taking such correspondence and recommended that 1e
Rev Dr. Ormston the delegate from that body, be ad-
mitted 10 the floor as corresponding member, and ad

adopted.
Dr. Fisher also presented report from the Joint Com
ittee on General Reunion of Presbyerans, sustaining
substantially, with few notifications the basis OF
union proposed at the Philadelphia Convention OF 1867
This matter has reference not to the pending question OF
reunion between the two great branches OF the Presoy
terian family but TO that secondary plan OF union
between all tho eleven branches which was considered
by delegates from seven OF them at the Philadelphia
Convention but which has been carried further by only
three-the Old School, New SCHOOL, and the United fIes-

GET REGIsrERED.-The roll-list Of
registered voters In Gold Hill will close
at 6 o'clock ?. NJ, to day. Our voting
population is upwards of 1900, but at
noon to-day there were only about 400
registered for the municipal election
which takes place on the Sd Of May.
This apparent neglect to become regis
tered should not be, as every taxpayer
is more or less interested in selecting a
good Board of Town Trustees. Only a
couple of hours remain before the books
are closed, and we would urge upon
voters to go to Judge Cooks office inn
mediately aud get registered.
IDLx.-owiug to those great ore-pro-
ducing institutions, the Yellow Jacket,
Kentuck and Crown Point mines being
disabled at the present time, most of
the mills depending upon them for their
regular supply Of ore are lying idle.
Some of them, however, have succeed.
ed in getting ore from other sources to
run on. This unfortunate calamity has
thrown hundreds Of meu temporarily
out of employment, but it certainly is
to be hoped that all will be right again
with the commencement Of next month.
ACCEPTABLE DoSArIoSs.-The agen-
cies Of the Bank Of California at Gold
Hill and Virginia have donated $500 in
coin to the relief fund for the sufferers
by the late mining calamity. Hon.
Wm. D. C. Gibson Of this own re-
ceived the ST., 900 this morning, and it

The Fire In the Mines.

The FIRE still burns, Notwithstanding
all efforts to e~xtinguish it, but us the
gaseous smoke and vapor coming from
the Crown Point and Yellow Jacket
shafts is less to-day than /. was yester-
day, the FIRE is apparently much re-
duced. Two streams Of water are
conducted through the 700 foot
level of the Crown Point mine and
Playing upon where the fire is supposed
to be, between these and the level
below. 1t is at the Kentuck and Yellow
Jacket line, in the east ledge, but can
not be seen by reason of the caved
waste, let down by the burned timbers.
Smoke aud gas indicates its wheses-
bouts. Yesterday afternoon aud last
evening several of the workmen
below fighting the FIRE were made
sick by the gas and had to be brought
out. The air, however, is better to-
day. Waste rock and cnved debris is
being sent out through the Kentuck
shaft. We were mistaken yesterday in
stating that the Yellow Jacket shaft
was closed again. Only the TOO-foot
station was blocked up TO stop the
draft. Below that point the air is good,
and mon have been down the shaft sew
eral times since yesterday.
