The Great Contest.
On Tuesday next the decisive battle is
to be fought, and when we consider what
depends upon the result, we cannot urge
too strongly upon every Republican the
importance of unremitting work. Some
may not understand the work that is be
fore them. It is to bring every man to
the polls—secure every doubtful voter,
and by every honorable means win friends
to the Republican cause from the ranks
of the enemy. This is work, and until
every Republican has entered into the
contest with such an active determination,
be has conic short of his duty. Know
ing our duty, let us nobly perform it, and
the result will amply pay us, by bring
ing upon the country peace, and upon
every branch of business unbounded
prosperity.
This contest is one of no ordinary pro
portions, for upon it is suspended the
hope of every freeman. A Democratic
triumph would_ inaugurate revolution and
war, and thus lay waste our fair fields,
and drench our streets and by-ways with
innocent blood. A Republican triumph
secures peace upon the broad basis of
universal freedom. Gen. Grant promises
peace, and to use the united powers of the
country to pres - s out every spark of treason
and anarchy. Seymour and Blair prom
ise the dispersing of Congress and. the
annulling of every law for the restraint of
the enemies of the country. This is a
simple statement of the issue, and por
trays the immensity and importance of the
contest that is now before us.
Let us go to work, determined to win
the good fight, sparing no energy, leaving
nothing undone that might have been
done, and the proud reward of victory will
perch upon our banners.
A, Great Speech by Hon. Schuyler
Colfax.
Hon. Schuyler Colfax, the printer,
patriot, and statesman, snd the next Vice
President of: the United States, made an
eloquent and logical speech at Detroit a
few days ago. We regret that we bare
not space for the entire speech in our
columns. We here append a few remarks:
Speaking of the fidelity of Republicans,
and then of the wickedness of the Demo
cratic party and Seymour, he said :
I said to you, a few moments ago, that
there was not a single man in all our hosts
who ever raised his band, or raised his
rifle against that flag, but there Were 300,-
000 of the bravest and the best, who are to
day sleeping in patriot graves, not ono of
them murdered by a Republican; not one
of them shot down by a Republican ; not
one of them whose young life was given for
his country, by the deadly rifle of a Repub
lican. How were they killed? 'They word
killed by the very men who are going to
vote for this man (Seymour,) as President
of the United States. ["That is so."] Why
were they killed? They were .killed be
cause,mpon the battle-field, men who for
got their allegiance to their country dared
to raise the rifle and draw.the bead upon it,
that the bullet might speed to their hearts,
and thereby the country might be weaken
ed. Is there a man here who fought tinder
the banner of the Union who is going to
vote that ticket? If there is, let me say a
word to him in kindness and friendship.
When you go to the ballot-box and drop in
that paper ballot, by which you and the
other millions of our country rule this land,
and control its destinies, you are going to
drop it in side by . side, if not in actual prox
imity, yet- in spirit, in principle, and in
soulovith the, men who on the battle-field
sought to kill you for your adhesion to the
flag. [Sensation.] If 300,000 more • could
have been murdered by the Rebels, this
country might have been destroyed. It is
not the fault of the man who drops his bal
lot in with you. It is not the fault of Wade
Hampton. ' It is not the' fault of Forrest
- and other Generals—Wise and others who
are going to vote with you—it is not their
fault that you are living to-day. They drew
theebead upon you ; they aimed at your
heart because you were faithful to the alle
giance which they themselves repudiated.
God's providence turned aside that bullet,
but if the men with whom you are going to
vote could - have led the way, you would
have been sleeping. in the grave. [Sensa
tion.] Now go and vote with them it' you
want to.
No, man ever spoke plainer truths.
Tho very neon that support Seymour, are
the same ones that supported Jeff. Davis,
and-fought in the Confederate army, end
he is nothing more nor less than the trai
tor's candidate.
Speaking of- the treachery of . the De
mocracy, and of his future course, wheth
er chosen as -Vice President or not, he
said :
"I have not ono particle of revenge in my
disposition. lam willing to forgive to the
uttermost. - God teaches us to forgive, but
he forgives no one without repentance.
[Applause.) There is no creed in all Christ
endom, in all the various denominations
that exist in our land, that even intimate
the possibility of God forgiving us our
crimes except upon the condition of repent
ance. Is there sorrow for this great crime
in the hearts of these men? penance for the
blood they have shed ? contrition for their
nefarious conspiracy against this country?
The only regret they have is that their
cause was lost instead of triumphant.
When they repent I shall forgive them, if
their sins are red and their hands dyed with
'the blood of my countrymen. But I tell
you, wherever I may be, in public or in
private life, in the office which I am about
to fill, as I believe, for the 'next four years
[applause], or where ever I may .be placed
by my fellow-citizens, there is one thing I
cannot do, one thing I will not do, one
thing before God I dare not do, and that is
to put the dagger of power back again into
the hands of unrepentant Rebels and
traitors, with which they can stab once
more as they stabbed for my nation's life.,
[applause.) -
With General Grant as :President,' and
the autlicn- of the above as Vico President,
"treason will be
,made odious and. traitors
punished." .Let ua Work together for
, .
their election. ,
THE way gran Copperheads account
'for the milk in the cocoanut in this lier
,Oitgh, is`.to be found in the one hundred
.Cops whO staid 'away from the polls.
Teach- ahem, better, by increasing our
majnrity to one hundred and fifty.
Copperhead Schemes Exposed.
We have repeatedly warned theßepub
limns against the apathy prevailing in.
their ranks after the glorious victory of
the 13th of October. We again raise our
voice to warn our friends in Columbia es
pecially, to go to work; let block commit
tees' be appointed at once. A few days
after the election, Brigham Young and a
few other leading Cops were anxious to
leave Republicans under the impression
that they were to have things pretty much
their own way.
On Friday evening last, a Copperhead
meeting was held at their head-quarters,.
in this place, at which Robert Crane pre
sided. The ex-Know Nothing, Hugh 31.
North, Esq., opened the proceeding's 'by
offering to give fifty dollars to reduce the
Republican majority in Columbia. S. S.
Detwiler. and Robert Crane each said
they would go fifty better and give a
hundred dollars for the same purpose.
They said they must' raise at least five
hundred dollars in Columbia; that men
had to be paid, or in plain English, they
meant to corrupt the people with money.
Sam .Ninnyinacher said that he had no
money to give, but he could flow around
that Sam Evans and one or two others
had turned Copperheads, in the hope he
could find some persons as big fools as
himself. Republicans of Columbia arouse,
go to work at once, teach these men a
lesson which they will remember all their
lives. Their action on Friday means bus
iness. "Up guards, and at them."
The Present Great Danger.
While the general result of the fall,
elections that have thus far been held, is
in the highest. degree gratifying and
cheering to the Republicans, there is
danger that it may, after all, prove our
greatest misfortune, by creating among
the supporters of Grant that degree of
over-confidence which begets sympathy
and indifference. There is now our
greatest danger, and we cannot to earnest
ly guard against it. Let no man suppose
for a moment that because the popular
heart beats soundly, as has been demon
strated by the recent elections, he need
feel no anxiety as to the result in Novella
her, or that his voice and his vote can
be withheld, under the supposition that
every body else is going to speak and
vote for the right cause. The safest and
surest way is for every man to do his
duty, in so important a contest as this.
No citizen is excusable fur witholding his
individual vote from the cause in which
he sympathizes. We do not know, to a
certainty, which party will be successful,
until the election is held and all the votes
counted. The prospect may look exceed
ingly favorable, and yet the result may
disappoint us. Let every Republican
everywhere, make up his mind, now, not
only to vote on election day, but to exert
whatever influence he can in the mean
time to strengthen our cause and to insure
a full vote. This is the only course by
which we can make the election of Grant
and Colfax sure.
Seymour on the Wing.
While Gen. Grant quietly reposes
in his own merits, and the great princi
ples of his party in this great contest,
Horatio Seymour is parading himself to
public gaze and censure in his efforts to
build for himself renown and character.
Lie has entered directly into the political
canvass, and reminds one of Andrew
Johnson's trip "swinging around the
circle," which proved so disastrous to
himself and party. We think it beneath
the dignity of any President or candidate
to deliver stump speeches, and when it
conies to a man going around like au orphan
goat, bellowing for public favor, we think
he at once admits his want of principle, if
not of good sense. If Democracy does
not blush at the picture Mr. Seymour is
wakingof bimself,we certainly think it be
cause of a want of shame. After the 3d
of November, Democracy may well be
known as Philistines, and only then will
they realize the efficiency of Seymour's
"jaw-bone" in their destruction.
SINCE Seymour received a big water
melon from Maryland, the agricultural
and horticultural portions of the com
munity have been rivaling one another
in trying to see which shall favor him
with the biggest and most appropriate
offering. We see that Illinois offers him
a mammoth beat, to be presented in Nov
ember. Ohio announces that she will
send him a tremendous squash. Cali
fornia is to outdo herself with a gigantic
turn-up. Unusual sour grapes are almost
ready. Pennsylvania will try for the
prize with an apple—of Sodom.
SEVERAL Germain and Irish citizens of
this place, having been deceived by that
unmitigated and consummate prince of
liars, Brigham Young, loft the foul party
and voted: as became men, for the Re
imblican ticic - ct, un the - 73th. Ever since
they have been hounded by a set of blood
hounds who have badgered and growled
at them for thus releasing themselves
from the thraldom of a disloyal and cor
rupt party. Let them defy all the cop
perhead minions by voting again, and
bringing their neighbors to vote for
Grant, the soldier.
TILE Democratic leaders are telling the
rank and file that they arc sure of defeat,
and yet asking them to fight for a victory.
This is not Grant's generalship. This is
no genership at all, though it is the best
the Democrats have. Their men are now
asking what is the use of fighting at all,
if defeat is sure, and are singing the old
refrain :
"He who skulks and runs away,
May live to fight another day."
Pk-is the duty of 'every RepubliCan to
arm himself for the coming battle. The
enemy is desperate, and only by unison of
action, and a determination to- win, can
such a victory as our principles entitle us
to be achieved. Don't lct the recent
victories satisfy. you. We must continu
ally labor, if we would be continually suc•
cesaful. We must hays every voter out
and doing his duty. ,
, Wu Warn the - RepubliCans of Columbia
agaiost the "Brigham, Sly" - dodges, that
he and the other rascals of his party
"will take no further part in the can
vass, &c." Be up and doing, and teach
these. political hermaphrodites a lesson
which they will not soon 'forget:-
LOOK out for FRAUD !
.RAIN or shine—let no vote be lost for
Grant on Tuedsay
Do you want Peace and Security, vote
the Republican ticket.
MANY an Old. Deincerat . will refuse to
cast a rote against such a war-warn sol
dier as General Grant.
SEE that your neighbor votes, if he votes
the Republican ticket. If he does not he
had as wcll stay at home.
'HAVE you any aged and infirm Repub
lican voters? &e to it that they are
brought to the polls to vote. '
THE Boston Transcript thinks the Blair
family has been declared unconstitutional
and void by the American people.
1161EMMER, Republicans, that the Cop
perheads of Columbia will attempt to re
duce our majority, by FRAUD, on Tuesday.
PERSONAL like and .dislikes should
bare no influence upon a man of principle,
when be is called upon to deposit his
rote.
A. WAG, since the late elections, has
fitted the Copperheads with the best name
they have ever worn. lie calls them the
Seymourners.
LET every Republican .do his whole
duty. Get out all the Voters on Tuesday
next. Lancaster County will give a mam
moth majority for Grant.
AROUSE! Republicans of Columbia,
prepare at once to charge upon and route
a discomfited and demoralized enemy.
Forward, doublequick, march !
kw there be no laggard Republicans
on the 3rd day of November next. If
you stay away from the polls on that day,
you will regret it but once, and that, so
long as you shall live.
A GLORIOUS victory awaits us, but re
member it can only be accomplished by
persistent and constant work. Don't go
to sleep after our late victory, but "push
things."
A VERY pious old woman, relating her
experience when a horse ran away with
the carriage she was in, said "she put her
trust in Providence till the brichiii broke."
Pennsylvania was the Democratic
"brichin."
33ers• A MILLION of Democrats are
anxious to vote for Grant ou the 3d of
November, and nothing restrains them
buf the belief that by doing o they
would be deserting Seymour. Now let
the rebel leaders force Seymour to resign,
and these half million of Democrats will
go with a rush for the Great Captain.
RE:IIE3II3ER, soldiers of the Republic,
that General Grant was your Chief, and
that his masterly Generalship brought
the war to a successful termination.
Show your appreciation of his services
by putting in a plumper for Grant and
Colfax, on the 3d day of November.
REV. LT.ENRY WARD PA:ECM:II rightly
says: "Since all the mei] who sought to
destroy the Government are rallying
around Seymour, it is fit that all the men
who stood for the Union should gather
about Grant. It is an honorthatwill not
happen twice in a man's life-time to vote
for such a man as Grant.
11E3rintuElt.—Republicans, remember
that the Copperhead snake was only
scotched on the 13th day of October. To
give it its final quietus you must turn aut
in your strength on the 3rd day of No•
vember, and deposit your ballot for the
greatest warrior of the age, General
Grant.
TIIE Democrats have asceret organi
zation in the South, called the Ku Klux
Klan, the object of which is to murder
Union men, and re-establish the old day
of rebel Slareq and Democracy. Yet
these men ask Christian people to support
their ticket. They will not and cannot do
it, consistent with their professions.
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, by its can
didates and platform, is irrevocably pledg
ed to economy, to the maintenance of the
public faith, the preservation of the peace
and unity of the States, and the liberty
and prosperity of the people; all its pledges
in the past have been redeemed, thus of
fording the best guarantee of their value
in the future.
WORKINGMEN and mechanics, remem
ber when you read the gabble reeled off
weekly by Brigham Young about the
National debt, and low wages, and high
prices, to turn your eyes towards "Kitch
entown" and Walnut street, where you
will behold scores of comfortable houses
just completed or in course of erection,
all of which is the result of your savings,
thus confuting these Copperhead lies.
GEN. J . 01:1N B. MAGRUDER, of the rebel
army, and Lieut. Edwin Iliggens, of the
rebel navy, were arrested by the Fifteenth
precinct police, in the city of New York,
on Friday night last, for being drunk and
disorderly, and insulting ladies in the store,
No. 667 Broadway. They were locked
up in the 'Mercer street Station. They
will probably be out in time to Tote for
Seymour.
"Up Guards, and at Them."
To win the coming battle, Republicans
must double their guards. We may be
reposing in fancied security on a mine.
Turd out—double your guards—call the
rolls—summon the absent—galvenize the
careless—get every voter into the ranks
—roll up—tumble up—walk up—run up
—any way so you come up and drive this
party of Forgery and Perjury into their
last ditch.
Still They Come.
West Virginia held her State election
for Governor and State officers, Members
of Congress, &e., on Thursday last. The
Democrats niade extraordinary efforts, and
had help from the rebels outside of the'
State, but all 'failed. The Rept/Widens
carry the State 'by • from 3,000 t 0 45,000
majority, and elect the three Congressmen ,
and a' majority of the Legislature, which
gives them a :United States Senatbr.
West Virginia makes the seventh State
voting this Fall—all of which have de
clared for Grant,
Laborers of Columbia.
The Copperheads and their vile organ
in this place are clamoring for equal tax
ation,-which means that you ought to pay
just as much tax on a gallon of milk as
of whisky, and as much ou a pound of
sugar and coffee as tobacco. Are you
going to vote for Seymour the candidate
of the parts , who advocate this detestable
doctrine. Workingtneu,if you want your
milk and sugar and coffee and other
necessaries of life, free from taxathin, vote
for Grant.
Poll Every Vote.
THE only hope of a shattered Democ
racy is that the Republicans will fail to
poll their vote.
To.be FOREWARNED, is to be FORE
AILMED. Beware of sluggishness. Let
not your victory, great as it is, induce in
action. On the other hand, it should
stimulate to greater effort.
See to it, that aveu Republican vote
is polled for GRANT , and all will then be
Be !...a tisfied with nothing Ices
TuosE honest Democrats of Columbia,
who voted tho Republican ticket on the
13th inst., are charged by such nice as
Brigham Young, and those who swear by
and receive their instructions from him,
with selling their votes. Teach these
slanderers that they lie, by not only voting
yourselves, but by bringing your Demo
crat neighbors to vote also for General
Grant. Thus showing your love or coun
try, and your desire fbr peace•
THE Republican Electoral ticket iu
Pennsylvania is printed in our colonies.
Every voter should preserve it, and see
that the ballot he is to east next Tuesday
contains the names correctly sl elled. The
Democracy usually circulate spurious lie
publican tickets, with the names misspel
led or those of some of their own ticket
substituted for Republicans. Look out
for such tricks.
Democratie Farmers.
Do you want your farms taxed at the
same rate of taxation as is now laid on
whisky and articles of luxury? if you do,
vote for Seymour and Blair. They are
r led ,, cd to tax . the farm of the well todo
farmer, and the little house, and even the
cow and pig of the poor man at the same
rate as the other articles we have nam
ed.
Frank P. Blair is Not a Voter:
Frank P. Blair, the Democratic candi
date for Vice President presented him
self for registration, a few days ago at St.
Louis, and was promptly rejected by the
Board of Review for uttering disloyal sen
timents. A man that cannot rate because
of his thsloyaftu seeks the vote of the
people.. Away with such a man !
Tin troubles in Louisiana grow more
and more aggravated. The men who
murdered Dostie and filled the New Or
leans market wagons with dead negroes
in July, 1866, are taking their old places
as policemen, and Democratic clubs under
arms are patrolling the city.
ltintElnuElt, Democrats, tht t t by voting
for Seymour, you are giving your aid to
wards another war and more drafts. Are
you prepared for this in Columbia? If
you desire prosperity and peace in the
land vote for Grant.
IVE urge every Republican voter to be
at the polls iu the forenoon on Tuesday

TICE DEMOCRATS are laboring quietly
and zealously to 'change the result in this
State. But they will be disappointed.

put Now York papers complain of reck

West Point. They struck a barge on the
Hudson river recently, but fortunately no
one was killed.
BLAIR was nominated by the unan
imous rote of the New York :Convention,
As to his withdrawal, he has the unanimous
consent of the American people, which is
certainly parliamentary.
LET no shoulder be taken from the wheel
with a view of letting the machine go on its
own account. Push the enemy at every
point till the polls close on a brilliant Re
publican victory.
GENERAL BURN SIDE gives the following
as the reason why every truly loyal man
should vote against Seymour: "I shall
vote against Mr. Seymour because 1 think
be was an enemy, to his country when it
was in trouble."
N. R. HuTcluxsoN', a well-known citi
zen of Harrisburg, and hitherto en active
and hard-working Democrat, who voted
with the Democracy at the October elec
tion, has left the ranks of that party, and
openly declared himself supporter of
General Grant. He will vote the Republi
can ticket on the 3d of November.
Mum name of Frank P. Blair, a citizen of
St. Louis, has been struck from the list of
registered voters in that city, on the ground
of disloyalty to the Union. Ilia, friends

IRISIIMEN, free yourselves from the rot

example of your brothers in New 'York

friends of their great cause.
B. F. RANuoLru, a colored preacher and
member of the South Carolina Senate, was
murdered at Clarksburg, in that Stuto, on
Friday last. He was standing on the plat
'form of a railroad car when three white
. men rode up and shot hint dead. Though
it was broad daylight none of the murder
ers were recognized, the bystanders being
conveniently near-sighted. Randolph's of
was the making of Republican
speeches.
Slawoun's speech in Chicago attempts to
ridicule Mr. Colfax for referring to the
Kansas troubles. Pray let u 4 ask what
was Seymoues position in that exciting
crisis? Did he stand by the cause of free
dom, or did be turn a deaf ear to.the groans
of the suffering people of Kansas? These
questions answer themselves. The man
had no more statesmanship about hint in
that event than Buchanan and Pierce had.
Ho was on the wrong side clear through.
TEM Democrats make great professions
of devotion to the national greenback cur
rency, and urge its. substitution for that of
the national banks. By this means they
hope to get rid of the well secured national
banking system established by the Repub
lic:tits, and as the country would have banks
of some kind, they would of course all be
under State laws, with a local anti unsecur
ed currency. It would not do to make the
issue openly in favor of a localized cur
rency, but they get around it in this way. .

on Tuesday morning the upper deck, pilot

Northampton, which was sunk by the
steamer Continental last Friday morning,
were completely carried away, and it is
feared the steamer will now be a total

The body of Captain George Beale, owner

"In the spring of 18a8 I was most severely afflicted
with a hard, dry cough, with its nsnal accompani
ments of night sweats, rompletely prostrating my
nervous system, and producing such n debilitated
state of health that, after trying medical aid to no
purpose, I had given up all hopes Greyer recovering.
as had also my friends. At this stage of matters I
was prevailed upon through the influence of a neigh
bor to try Wbtatr's Ilalsarn of Wild Cherry. and, be
fore using two battles, the effect was almost magical.
My cough entirety left me, the night sweats deserted
me, hope once more elated my depressed spirit.,
and soon I hind attained my wonted strength and
vigor. Thus has tlds Balsam, as lies often been re
marked by per4ons conversant with the above facts,

suffer on in silence and hundreds of others ap
ply vainly to druggists and doctors, who either
merely tantalize them with the hope of a cure
or apply remedies which make them worse. I
would not wish to assert anything that would do
injustice to the afflicted, but I ant obliged to say
that although It may be produced from exces
sive exhaustion of the powers of life, by labori
ous employment, unwholesome air and food,
profuse menstruation, the use of tea and coffee,
and frequent childbirth, it is fur Oftener caused
by direct, irritation, applied to the mucous mem
brane of the vaviint itself.
When reviewing the causes of these distres,lng
complaints, it is most painful to contemplate
the attendant evils consequent upon them. It.
is but simple just ice to the sub feet to emu nerate
a few of the many additional causes which so
largely affect the life. health, amd happiness of
woman in all classes of society, and winch, con
sequently, affect more or less directly, the wel
fare of tile entire human hunily. 'hie mania
that exists for precocious education and mar
riage, causes the years that nature designed for
corporeal development to be wasted and perver
ted in the restraints of dress, the early confine
ment of school, and especially in the unhealthy
e-xciteineut of the ball-room. Titus,. with the
body half-ciothed,.and the mind unduly excited
by pleasure, perverting in midnight revel, the
hue es designed by nature fur sleep and rest, the
work of destruction is half accomplished.
In consequence of this early strain upon her
system, unnecessary effort is required by the
delicate votary to retain her situation in school
at a later day, thus aggravating the evil, When
one excitement is over, another in prospective
keeps the mind morbidly sensitive to impression
while the now constant restraint of fashionable
dress, absolutely forbidding the exercise indis
pensable to tile attainment and retention of Or
ganic health and strength ; the exposure to night
air ; the sudden. change of temperattwe; the cum
ple.te prostration produced by excessive dancing,
must, of necessity, produce their leginuate effect.
At lust, an early marriage caps tile climax of
misery, and the unfortunate- one, hitherto so
utterly regardless of Alio plain dictates and re
monstrances of tier delicate nature, becomes an
unwilling subject of medical treatment. This is
but it truthful picture of the experience of thou
sands of our young women.
Long before the ability to exercise the func
tions of the generative organs, they require an
education of their peculiar nervous systexn,
composed of what is called the tissue, which Is,
in common with the fenusle breast and lips,
evidently under the control of mental emotions
and associations at an early period of life; and,
as we shalt subsequently see, these emotions,
when excessive, lead, long before puberity, to
habits which sap the very life of their victims
ere nature has self-completed their development.

I. They area first mortgage 'upon the longes
and most important railroad in the country.
2. By law they can be Issued to the Comply!)
only as the road Is completed, so that they al
ways represent a real value.
3. Their amount is limited by act of Congress
to Fifty Million Dollars on the entire Pacific
line, or an average of less than $50.000 per mile.
4. Hon. E. D. Morgan, of the United States
Senate, and Hon. Oakes Ames, of the United
States Mouse of Representatives, are the trus
tees for the bondholders, to see that all their In
terests are protected.
5. Five Government Directors, appoint& by
the President or the United Staten, are respon
sible to the country for the inanagement of its
affairs.
6: Three United States Commissioners must
cart iry that the road is well built and equipped,
and in all respects a first-01mq railway, before
any bonds can be Issued upon it.
7. The United States Government lends the
Company its own bonds to the same amount
that the Company issues, Tor which It takes a
second mortgage as security.
S. As additional aid, it mates an absolute
donation of 12,800 acres of land to the mile,iying
upon each side of the road.
9. The bonds pay six per cent. in gold, and the
Principal Is also payable in gold.
10. The earnings from the local or way busi
ness were over Vona I‘lll.ll.tort DOLLAR} last
year, which, after paying operating expenses,
was much more than sufficient to pay the In
terest. These earnings will be vastly increased
on the completion of the entire line In ISO 9.
12. No political action can reduce the rate of
Interest. It in ust remain for thirty years—six
per cent. per annum In gold, now equal to be
tween eight and nine per cent. in currency.
The principal is then payable in gold. If abond,
with such guarantees, were issued by the Gov
ernment, its market price Would not be less
than from 20 to 25 per cent. premium. As these
bonds are issued under Government authority
anti supervision, upon what is very largely a
Government work, they must ultimately ap
proach Government prices. No other corporate
bonds arc made so secure.
13. The issue will soon be exhausted. The
sales have sometimes been half a million a day,
and nearly twenty millions have already been
sold. About ten millions more may be offered.
It is not improbable that at seine time not far
distant,' all the remainder of the bonds the.
Company can Issue will be taken by sonic com
bination of capitalists and 'withdrawn from the
market, except at a large advance. The long
time, the high gold interest, mind the perfect
security, must make these bonds very valuable
for export.
All the predictions which the officers of this
Company have made in relation to the progress
and business success of their enterprise, or the
value and advance in the price of their securi
ties, have been more than confirmed, and they
therefore sugisest that parties who desire to in
ve,t, in their bonds will find it to their advan
tage to do so at once.
The price for the present is 102 and accrued in
terest at the rate of six per cent. in curre.ey
from July Ist, and subscriptions will be received
