The maximum grade from the foot of the mountains to the summit is but eight feet to the mile, while that of many eastern roads is over one hundred. Work in the rock-cuttings on the western slope will con tinue through the winter, and there is now no rea- son to doubt that the entire grand line to the Pa- cific will be open for business in 1370. The means provided for the construction ot this Great National Work are ample, The United States grants its Six Per Cent. Bonds at the rate of from $15,000 to $43,00 per mile, for which it takes @ SECOND LIEN ax security. and receiy. payment toa large if not to the full extent of claim in services. These bonds are issued as each twenty-mile section ie finished, and after it has been examined by United States Commissioners and pronounced to be in all respects a first-class road, thoroughly supplied with depots, repair. shops, stations, and ali the necessary rolling-stock and other equipments. The United States also makes a donati 300 of land to the mil this landinthe Platte Valley is among the mos fertile in the world, and other large portions are covered with heavy pine forests, and abound in coal of the best quality. ‘The Company is also anthorized to issue ita own First Mortgage Bonds toan amount equal to the issue of the Government, and no more, Hon. E D. Morgan and Hon. Oukes Ames are Trustees for the Bondholders, and deliver the Bonds to the Company only as the work progresses, #0 that they always represent an actual and productive value. ‘The authorized capital of the Company is One Hundred Million Dollars, of which over five millions have been paid in upon the work already done. EARNINGS OF THE COMPANY. At present the profits of the Company are de- rived only from its local traffic, but this is already wnch more than sufficient to pay the interest on all the Bonds the Company can issue, if not an- other mile were built. It is not doubted that when the road is completed the threngb trafic of the only line counecting the Atlantic and Pa cific States will be large beyond precedent: and, as there will be no competition, it can always bs done at prof table rates. It will be noticed that the Union Pacific Rail- road is, in fact.« GOVERNMENT WoRK, built na der the supervision of Government officers. 8 large extent with Government money, and its bonds are issued under Government direction, It is believed that no similar security is so care: fully guarded, and certainly no other is based upon s larger or more valuable property. As the Company's FIBST MORTAGE BONDS are offered for the present at 90 CENTS ON THE DOLLAR, they are tho cheapest security in the market, being more than 15 per cent. lower than U. 8. Stocks. They pay SIX PER CENT. IN GOLD, or over NINE PER CENT. upon the investment. Subscriptions will be received in Washiugton by FIRST NATIONAL BANK. (H. D. Cooke, President; Wu. 8.
