The CHARACTER of the Land Gant of
the Northern Pacific Hailroad Company, as a whole, is
readily acknowledged by all persons acquainted with the
different Grants, to be Mi UP E RIO R TO THAT
OF ANY OTHER ROAD; but even if the
average price per acre of its land sales should nut be
aliove the lowest average of all the land grants, which is
but $2.70 on the Kansas Pacific Road, still at tills low
figure for the 25.000 acres held to redeem each $50,000
of bon Is, there would be a surplus of $17,500 over the
amount of bonds that can be issued on each mile of the
Northern Pacific Railroad.

As the U. S. Government is now calling in the Five-
Twenties, holders of these can convert them into North
em Pacific Bonds, and thereby INCREASE
THEIR INCOME .MORE THAN 33 1-3
PER CENT. At the present time a good propor
tion of the sales of N. P. Bonds are by the conversion of
Five Twenties, ami we notice that the Boston Journal
in its monetary article of Nov. Ilth, says: "Holders (of
Five-Twenties of 1862) are either realizing upon them,
or exchanging them into other Issues—often into rail
road bonds—the Northern Pacific Seven-Thirti’s are
favorites for reinvestment.’*
The Chicago disaster nilly demonstrated that a First
Mortgage Bond on any Trunk Line of railroad is the
safest and k-ad fluctuating security known. This is
manifest in one quite marked instance, as seen in the
fluctuation of the First Mortgage Bonds of the Michigan
Central Railroad, which fell but one percent. In the late
financial panic, while U. S. Five-Twenties and Sixes of
18xl fluctuated two to three per cent.; and here the
Michigan Central Railroad had met with the greatest
loss it could by fire—the burning of its large terminal
depot. The New York Daily Bulletin, which gives the
authentic reports of the Stock Exchange, in its issue of
the 11th of October, after the Chicago fire, says: "Rail
road Bonds have stood the shuck better than any other
class of securities," and again, October 18th, says:
"Railroad Bond- are steadier than any other class 01
securities.’’

Peoria anti Rock Island First Mort-
gage 7 per Cent. Convertible
Cold Bonds,
thereby adding 2.» PE It CENT. TO THEIR CAPI
TAL. and about 45 PER CENT, to thdr YEARLY
INCOME.
We recommend these bonds strongly, for the following
reasons:
The Road, ninety-one miles in length, is already
COM I’LETE D, and earning much more than the
interest on the whole issue of bonds.
The mortgage, £1, 500.000, is less than £IO,-
500 per mile.
The road passes through a rich, populous, agricultural,
manufacturing, and coal district.
It connects Peoria and Rock Island, two of the largest
and most flourishing cities in Illinois, and forms part of
a trunk-line from Indianapolis to st. Paul, 578 miles, it
also connects Iwo navigable rivers—the Illinois and Mis
sissippi. The bonds are authorized for the extra equip
ments and necessary buildings required to do the business
now offered.
Nearly half the entire loan has already been sold.
