The successful and rapid negotiation OF nearly
three fourths Of the FIFTEEN MILLION LOAN
OF TIE 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
traffic, have placed the financial affairs and re-
sources OF the Company upon such basis that
directed TO advance the price for future sales Of
the Bonds, explained in the following letter Of
Mr.. HUNTINGTON, President Of the Company:

price Of the Bonds, from this date, until further
orders, will be 81 and accrued interest.
The scarcity Of, and demand for, really
Desirable Six per cent. Gold Bonds
for sound and permanent investments is evinced By
the facts that
FIvE-TwENry BONDS OF 1867 are selling at Ills
CENTRAL PACIFIC BoNDs are selling st........- l03
CHksAPEAKE OHIO BoSps are selling A.. 81
These bonds all nay both principal and interest in
New York City, in z. ). gold coin, and are equally
safe for inv estment.
The reason why FIvE-TwFSry Boxps are % high
10 because no more can be issued, and the oustana-
ing amount lie being rapidly decreased by purchases
by the Government from their surplus revenues,
The reason why We think CENTRAL PAcT,< nc Rou~.
