NEW YORK, Oct 31-6 p. M.
The trade movement was, OF course, slow to-day,
and must continue to be adversely affected by the
blockade for some time to come, even in the event
Of the speedy termination Of the horse plague, be-
cause OF the unprecedented accumulation OF all
sorts OF merchandise awaiting transportation.
Purchases are postponed from day to day wholly on
account Of the impossibillty Of moving the goods
and trade will be set back some weeks at the very
best. Scarcely any goods have been shipped by
rail for over week. and at the receiving stations
every day is represented to be as holiday. Nothing
like the present state OF affairs has ever before been
known, and, though there is some Improvement In
the condition OF the horses reported from day to
day, 1t will be some time before the wheels OF CON-
merce will be again In active operation or the
blockade entirely removed. The markets to-day
were quiet, though prices were pretty generally
sustained On Change the movement in bread
stufYs was considerably more active, particularly
for -four. Wheat, under fair demand, was again
dearer, and the same remarks apply to corn. Pro-
visions, as q general thing, were easy and trade
very light Cotton was In moderately fair demand,
but lower figures had to be accepted In order to
operate to any extent Groceries remained quiet but
firm for all descriptions Petroleum continued quiet and
unchanged Naval stores also quiet and consdera

OFFICE OF
Blanchard Maine State Boiler Co.

IINHE above is an engraving of Steam Boiler con-
Il tanning 1900 feet of heating surface, built upon
new principle, namely that of stopping the certicaL
circulation, accomplished by means of two horizon-
tat diaphragms running through the boiler, and
forming three water compartments By this ar
rangement there is maintained three temperatures of
water.
The smoke and heated gases pass first through the
tubes in the upper compartment, then descend, and
return through the tubes in the second Commandment
in the third compartment. By this operation, the
smoke, and heated gases from the furnace on their
way to the smoke stack, or chimney come in con-
tact with gradually decreasing temperatures of
water.
While doing average work. coupled with good
engine, it will supply steam for 15O indicated horse
power.
We will guarantee that this boiler will shew so
per cent. more power with the weight of coal
than any boiler of the same heating surface in the
market, and Will continue to do so, long it is
used, and we will back our guarantees with Gov
ERNAIENT BONDS,
The durability of this boiler is greater than any
other for the reason is that cold water is allowed
to come in contact with the intensely heated surfaces
the feed water being gradually heated ascends
from tho lower to the upper compartment.
We would especially call the attention of Railroad
men to the following facts that while running this
bOilerwth coal or wood the sparks are neutralized
and none have ever left the smoke-stack or chimney
which in itself is most valuable advantage, never
before realized.
Contning ourselves to practice and not theory we
invite all parties in want of Steam Boilers to give us

The CHARACTER of the Land Grant of the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company, as whole, is
readily acknowledged by all persons acquainted with
the different Grants to be SUPERIOR TO
THAT OF ANY OTHER ROAD; but even
not be above the lowest average of all the land grants
which is but S2.7O on the Kansas Pacific Road, still
at this low figure for the 25oOo acres held to redeem
each $5O,oo0 of bonds, there would be surplus of
$175oO over the amount of bonds that can be issued
on each mile of the Northern Pacific Railroad.
During the present month the Northern Pacific
Railroad will be opened for passengers and freight to
the Red River of the North, the eastern boundary
of Dakota Territory-this, with the completed road
on the Pacific SLOPE and the St. Paul and Pacific
branches of 2ss miles, will make nearly 600 miles of
road in operation at the close of this year.
AS the U. S. Government is now calling in the Five
Twenties, holders of these can convert them into
Northern Pacific Bonds, and thereby INCREASE
THEIR INCOME MORE THAN 80 1-s
PER CENT. At the present time a good propor-
ton of the sales of n p Bonds are by the conversion
of Five-Twenties, and we notice that the Boston
Journal in its monetary article of Nov. II, SAYS:
"Hoders of FiveTwenties (of 1862 are either real
zing upon them, or exchanging them into other is
sues-often into railroad bonds-the Northern Pacific
-Thirties are favorites for reinvestment,"
The Chicago disaster fully demonstrated that First
Mortgage Bond on any Trunk Line of railroad is
the safest and least fuctuating security known.
This Is manifest in one quite marked instance, as
seen in the uctuation Of the first Mortgage Bonds
of the Michigan Central Railroad which fell but one
per cent in the late financial panic, while u S. Five
Twenties and Skies of 1881 fuctuated two to three
per cent; and here the Michigan Central Railroad
had met with the greatest loss it could by fre-the
burning Of its large terminal depot The New Yrok
Daily Bulletin which gives the authentic reports of
ber after the Chicago fire, says: 'Raroad Bonds
have stood the shock better than any other class of
securities, and again, October 18th, says: Railroad
Bonds seader than anyother class of securities
hB TO persons seeking permanent investments, al
so holders of Government Bonds wishing increase
their income, WE WOULD RECOMMEND
THE NORTHERN PACIFIC SEVEN
THIRTY GOLD BONDS AS ONE OF
THE BEST AND SAFEST RAILROAD
SECURITIES NOW OFFERED TO
THE PUBLIC.
We recommend this bond for the reason that it is
GROUNDED UPON A LANDED REAL
ESTATE BASIS, WORTH DOUBLE
THE AMOUNT OF BONDS ISSUED

FULLY EQUIPPED TRUNK LINE
OF RAILROAD RUNNING THROUCA
THE SAME.
