This debt is created by the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad Company in order more speedily and efIec-
tualy 10 extend and complete the main line of their
Road to the Ohio river This work-THE MOST
IMPORTANT INTERNAL IMPROVEMENT

rapidly approaching completion. 1t will establish
another and superior line Of communication between
the Ohio and Mississippi valleys and the eastern
cities; bringing ten millions of people, mainly pro-
ducers nearer to the centers Of consumption in the
Eastern States, and nearer to the political and com
mercial capitals Of their country Such is the COM
handing Importance of this Trunk Line that the
larger cities of the West projecting feeders to
connect with it, SO as to avail themselves of its un
equaled facilities as ii is completed. Large
tracts of valuable coal and iron lands along its route
are passing into the hands Of practical miners and
iron manufacturers; large city is springing IN AT
the western terminus, the head of reliable nayiga
ton ON the Ohio, where it intersects 900 miles of
river transit and will soon be in connection with
so Geo miles of railroad carriage.
The CENTRAL PACIFIC SIX PER CENT BoSps are
as safe for inv estment as Government bonds Their
amount, fixed by act of Congress at S25 sS5,0Oo is
secured by property worth four times their value:
they can only be bought in the open mark et aud 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
twenty -four years to run; the earnings of the road
are steadily increasing, and will probably reach
Sl0I0O.OO0 for the current year, affording hand
ron'o oh VI expenses ana Interest
Present price, l0lA to lO2.
When the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad is com
pleted, in 1872, and the Bonds are de alt i'm at the
Stock Exchanges Of the world, we have no doubt
they will be equally popular with the Central Pa
cities. Both principal and 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 closes of Five-twenties.
We recommend either of them to our friends and
customers with the SAME CONFIDENCE THAT
WE DID TIE FIvE-TWENTY BONDS, when we
were selling millions of them for the United States
Government.
We buy and sell FIvE-TwENTIEs, TEN.
FORT les, ElGdTY-OEEs, and CENTRAL or
WESTERN PAGIFICS, or receive them in pay
ment for CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO BONDS at
their current market price.

panied with Drafts Checks, may be forw arded to
