No , NaSsau-st New York, March ., 1913.
The CHEsAPEAKE and ONO the CENTRAL Pacific,
and WESTERN PACIFIC BONDS, all Of which have been
negotiated by us we believe to be among the best and
most desirable Investment Securities in the market,
which in time must become very scarce especially
as the Government will probably pay off, in gold,
during the year, S3OO,OOO,0o0 FIyE-TwENTIEs, and
large amount of capital thus released from invest
ment must be absorbed into this class of securities.
The CHESAPEAKE and ONO SIX PER CENT GOLD
Bonds the total amount of which is only Sl5OO0OO0,
are secured upon property worth S3j,OO0,O0O to
S4OOO0OOO and are fully equal in intrinsic value to
the Central Pacific Bonds. They are issued in de-
nominations of $780, $500 and ~ 900 coupon regis
tered and at their present market price S7 and ac-
crued interest. are very desirable
The CENTRAL PACIFIC SIX PER CENT GOLD BONDs
are too we'll known 10 require description or COM
mendation. Their total amount is S5,SS5 600; they
have for long time ranged in market price near or
above par. Their price to-day is 104alOH.
The WESTERN PACIFIC SIX PER CENT GOLD
BONDS amount to 81 73j 900. This road is now con-
solidated with the CENTRAL PACIFIC, and the pay
ment of its bonds principal and interest is assumed
by the latter As they have recently been introduced
on the Stock Exchange, we expect to see them rap
idly rise to the price of CENTRAL PACIPICs, being
substantially the same in character and value.
Coupon Bonds, 81 900 each Their market price to-
day is "a. 10 3d.
We buy and sell as usual Government Bonds, re-
ceive deposits, on which allow interest make

The Pacific Mail speculation was active all the way
out There is nothing new to be learned as to the
position of Mr.. Stockwell and the Company, al
though il is asserted that Mr.. Stockwells solvency
is undoubted. As we have before mentioned, the
Company has authorized the purchase of Mr..

the New-Zealand line, which come into
the market for sale after Mr.. Webbs

of speculation is likely to depend very materially
upon the action of the Treasury with reference to

Lord Lxtton,s Women.
IN Blackwood's Magazine.

From Blackwood' s MagaZlne.I
Lord Lytton, with all his gifts, did not
possess that of drawing women. 1t IS
rare among men-almost, if not quite,
as rare as the faculty Of representing
men is among women, though the failure
in the one case is very much like the less
remarked upon, and less noticeable, in
deed, from the fact that women have but
lately come to occupy leading places in
the works of fiction A beautiful and
sweet abstraction of womankind with
hair, eyes, throat, etc., nicely put In,
with smiles and tears handy, and few
pretty speeches, is all that is really
necessary for a heroine of the good old
fashioned type. Lord Lytton has
two of these types, the heroic and
the gentle, as indeed Sir Walter Scett
also had; and most novelists OF
eminence keep within these safe
lines. The sentimental splendor OF Vio-
lapte, the sugary sweetness OF HeleI,
may dazzle the hasty reader; but how
to come to any sort Of realization OF
those young women we are unable to IN
form him. Every mortal man has his
tether, and here is one in which Lord
Lytton's tether is apparent, though he
does his best by glowing diction and
lavish sentiment to throw glamour IN
our eyes and blind us to the fact. He
does blind US SO far that we accept the
graceful outline engeloped in rainbow
mists of beautiful effect as the symbol
of woman-woman the consoler, woman
the inspirer, as he himself says The
abstraction il enough for him-he has
no need for anything further; neither,
we suppose, has the majority OF readers,
or the typical would not have been so
long and so placidly accepted instead
of the personal.
