money, to any considerable amount At a
Hover rate Of interest than 5 per cent.
Wethink, therefore, that the holders OF
8 per cent bonds may safely calculAteup-
on the continuance Of their Investment
undisturbed for 5 long term Of years. and
that, in estimating the relative desirable
| ty Of the various issues OF Government
bonds for new purchases, investors may
assume that neither the Sc Of 1881 nor
the lO-4O's are likely to be redeemed In
leas than from ten 10 fifteen years. u
From all the Indications now aSailA-

we would class the several issues, for de-

The sos Of 1886 are now being 90

be relatively clRSsOd a. an investment.
At present prices, taking into aceount
that ninety days notice must be given
when they are called, and 7ibat some Of
them cannot probably be called for sever.
al months yet, they are mot undesirable
for the temporary employment Of idle
funds. II Is worthy Of confederation,
however, by holders, that the other de-
sirable issues may materially advance In
price during the next few months, under
the concentrated demand from holders Of

invest the proceeds IN more permanent

years, with no option on the part oil the
Goyernment to call them In before ma
turity, are, for this reason, especially de-
sirabls for long Investment for savings
banks, estates, trust funds and banking
purposes; AS, notwithstanding the pre-.
MUM At which they are selling, they
will yield higher rate Of interest on the
amount Of capital invested 10 them, at
present prices, that can be assumed with
certainty Of any other Issues Of Govern
