three fourths Of the FIFTEEN MILLION LOAN
OF THE CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO RAILROAD
COMPANY, and the energetic prosecution of the
work OF extension and preparation of the Road for
an extensive mineral, agricultural, and through

These bonds all nay both principal and interest in
New York City, in o. ). gold coin, and are equally
safe for inv estment
The reason why FIvE-TwrxrY BONDS are SO high
is because more can be issued, and the outstapd

by the Government from their surplus revenues
The reason why we think CENTRAL PACIFIC BeyDs
will in time advance to the price Of Five Twenties
