perior line of communication between the Ohio and
Mississippi valleys and the eastern cities; bringing
ten millions of people, mainly producers to
the centres of consumption in the Eastern states
and nearer to the political and commercial capitals
OF their country. Such is the commanding i'm por-
tanee OF this Trunk ne that the larger cities the
West are projecting feed RS to connect with it, SO
to avail themselves OF its uneqnalled facilities as
soon as it is completed. Large tracts OF va liable
coal and iron lands along its route are passing into
the hands of practical miners and lion manuiac

terminus, the head of reliable navigation on the
Ohio. where it intersects $4,000 miles of river tran
sit, and will soon be in connection with 10000 miles
OF railroad carriage.

When the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad is COM
peted, in 1872, and the Bonds are dealt in at the
Stock Exchanges of the world, we have no doubt
they will be equally popular with the Central Pa
ofics. Both principal and interest oil the CENTRAL
| PACIFIC and CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO BONDS are
specifically payable in gold coin in New York; the
interest on the former being paid January and July
and of the latter, May and November, correspond.
