To those who have funds TO invest in large or
small amounts or who wish to increase their income
from already invested il other less profitable
securities we recommend, after full Investigation,
the Seven-Thirty Gold Bonds of the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company. Bearing seven and three-tenths
per cent gold interest equal now TO 81 currency
and sold at par, they yield an income considerably
more than one-third greater than L. 5. 520s. They
are Coupon and Registered, the lowest denomina-
ton being 500, the highest, $4,000.
Nearly one-thrd of the Main Line Of the Road will
be completed and in operation with large business
the present season. All the property and rights Of
the Company, including amost valuable Land Grant
averaging about $4,000 acres per mile of road, are
pledged as security for the first mortgage bonds now
offered
All marketable stocks and bonds are received in
exchange at current prices. Descriptive pamphlets
and maps, showing Route Of Road, Connections
Tributary Country, &c, will be furnished on appl-
cation. JAY COOKE ~ 20.
