as safe for investment as Government bonds Their
amount, fixed by act Of Congress at S25 SIS OOo is
secured by property worth four times their value:
they can only be bought in the open market and are
becoming scarcer in consequence of their gradual
absorption by investors here and in Europe; they
HAVE A READY MARKET IN ALL THE
PRINCIPAL MONEY -CENTERS, and have still

When the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad is com
peted, in 1872, and the Bonds are de alt in at the
Stock Exchanges of the world, we have no doubt
they viii be equally popular with the Central Pa
cifcs. Both principal aud interest of the CENTRAL
PACIFIC and CHESAPEAKE AND ONO BONDS are
specifically pay able in gold coin in New York. the
interest on the former being paid January and July
and Of the latter May and November, corresponding
with the two classes of Five-twenties.
We recommend either of them to our friends and
customers with the SAME CONFIDENCE THAT
WE DID THE FIvE-TwENTY BONDS, when we
were selling millions Of them for the United States
Government.
We buy and sell FIvE-TwENTIES, TEN
F0RTiES, ElGaTY-ONES, and CENTRAL or
WESTERN PAeIFICs, or receive them in pay
ment for CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO BONDS at
their current market price.
