The remedy appeared opvious. If the interest in the land and the railway could be combined in the same body, there could be nv coudt of the gains that must ensue, Accordingly, when it was announced about seven years bask, that the Illinow Cen- tral Company had obtained a free grant of 2 510,000 asros of the rich prairie lands of that rising State, throogh which to run a railroad of seven hunared miles from north to south, to connect the lake navication ab Chicago with that of the southern waters at Cair, i: was ceemed the hour had come when those marvell sus examples often quoted of the rapit increase in value of farming and clty locations in the West might, in the best possible manner, be brought home to the conception of any persons disposed to participate in the prejected enterprize. It was estimated the railwey would ‘cost £3,400,000, but that with the ress of construction the lands would realize much more than that total. The = thererore, was to issue bonds secured by these 08 to raise required amount, and thus to render it unnecessary to call upon the shareholders for auythiog of bonds being cancelled, there was & good prospect of their being in constant demand, and. ultimately, as the pe Ay extinction went on, of their commandiog a premium. For some time ,everyihing promised well. The sales of land, which are made on credits of two and three years, have reached abot £3,000,000, although eply halt the quactty Delonging to the company has been parted wish, while, owing to the influence of population, the remamder are fairly considered to be worth at this moment more thaa the sum Put upon the whole at the commencement. Un- ly, instead of the railway costing £3 400,000, the ex- tare mounted to £5,000,000; but still, psupposwg the eaiculations regarding the lands to be woil founded. there ‘was a prospect thas their sale would not only pay the whole but leave a large sum as bocus to the shareholder who would then actually be owners, free of cost, of the entire live of railway. The difference betwoon tho £%,400,000 raised by bonds aod the £5,000,000 really ex- pendea had been obtained partly by calls on the proprie- tors, who found themselves required to pay up thirty fire ipetead of five per cent of each share as origivally con- templated, and partly by obtaining Ivans in the New York money market on the a of the compacy. ‘Yet such was the confidence in the rep-esentativos gv no ‘that at this time last year the shares, wito £30 paid, were sought in the Siock Exchange at about £65, Then came the american pauic, when it was found that the promissory netes of the company which were in cir culation at short catee,avd which amounted to about £500,000, could not be renewed on avy terms.
