safest of Investments, sure to rise much
above par in market value on the compile
ton of the road and the closing of the
loan.
Now that Government bonds can no
longer be purchased except at such high
prices as to reduce the rate of interest to
about five per cent. Northern Pacific Rail-
road bonds. with their real estate security,
have become a favorite means of invest
ment. AS they are issued in denomina-
tions as small as one hundred dollars.
persons of small means can purchase them
as well as capitalists; and as they are reg
isterea as well us coupon, money invested
in the former is perfectly protected against
fire, theft. or other loss. The semi-annual
interest on the registered bonds is paid by
gold checks sent regularly to the post
office address of the holder, i'm any part
OF the country. The rate of interest is
seven and three tenths per cent. gold, or
about st in currency. The bonds can be
ordered through almost any bank or
banker, or directly from the Financial
Agents of the Northern Pacific Railroad
Company. Messrs. Jay Cooke & Co., New
York, or Philadelphia.

The Soldiers Convention reassem-
bled at II, o'clock. Prayer was offered
by Rev. John ID. Sands, Of Pittshurg.
The committee on resolutions reported
expressing pleasure at the reunion, re-
affirming devotion to the Union and
entering solemn protest against
transferring the control of the army
and navy, the treasury and the entire
government, the constitutional amend
Incnts, with the execution of the laws
themselves to q selfish and corrupt CO.
alitiOn, composed chiefly of elements
but recently in open hostility to them
all. The fourth resolution declares
that the Soldiers cherish no spirit of
revenge toward their fellow citizens
Of the South, but extend the right hand
of fellowship to all those who accept
in good faith the results Of the war,
and who will extend TO every Ameri-
can citizen of whatever race or color
the rights which arc solemnly guaran-
teed BY the Constitution Of the United
States and the laws made in pursuance
thereof.
The sixth and seventh resolutions
gladly and proudly reafiirm enthusiast
tic confidence in the integrity, patriot
ism and ability of President Grant and
of his associate on the ticket, the In
corruptible patriot, Henry Wilson,
and pledge steady and earnest sup
port in reforming the civil service and
establishing the highest standard of
honor and fidelity. "A vote OF thanks
to the hospitable citizens Of Pittsburg
was then passed.
Gen. Logan remarked there Is no.
reconciliation required on our part
We are the friends and aiders of the
prosperity and the peace of our conn
try and we sustain the banner Of our
old comrades.
When these men who drew their |
blades against the country become re-
conciled to that banner and to the au
thority Of the Nation, then shall har-
mony and peace prevail. For our own
part there is no need of reconciliation. |
