They depend upon no now or half settled territory for business to pay their interest.but upon an old,well•settled and productive country—assuming that -a railroad built through the heart of such a region offers bettor Security for both interest and Principal than a road to be built through the most highly extolled wilderness or sparsely settled territory. This Railroad possesses special advantages in rannlm, into and out of the city of Chicago, an important railroad and commercial centre ; in running through a line of vil lages and old farming settlements in tire richest portion of the State of Illinois ; in running near to depoaita of iron ore of great extent and value, and over broad Gelds of the beet coal In the State, which mining Interests:are its monopoly.
