the Bridgeport Club, on the grounds of the

about 3 o'clock. P. II, when the skies be-
came serene and the play commenced. The
grounds, however, were very wet and mud-
dy and handling the ball very unpleasant.
Alter the fifth innings the Monitors scored
up splendidly, and ifniglit had not thrown
her sable curtain over the .scene the contest
would have been exciting. The Bridgeport
“local" in making up his report for the Far-
mer complimented “Josh” upon his splendid
pitching, but forgot to mention 110W Felix
began to “fear and tremble” on the last two
innings. how they reasoned among them-
selves,” and 110w Felix willing to show the
boys a pleasure” invited them to a sumptu-
ous feast at Stevens. Talking and feasting
being ended their team drove u' , the driver

their friends adieu, arriving safely home
about 11 o’clock in the evening.
Two cows belonging to Mr. Win. Brown

said to live in Newtown, were suposed to be
the guilty parties. They had traded away
one cow on the road, and when they arriv-
2d at Purdy’s Station they offered these two
"or sale. The man to whom they offered
.liem concluded they were stolen property
mm the low price fixed, and took them in-
.0 his possession ; the thieves escaped. Olli-
:ers are in pursuit, and there is little doubt
rut that they will be arrested.

lViLTox.—Oii Saturday Aug 25th we had
an cxcltingmatch game of ball between the
“Mufiins” of this place and the “Quick-
steps"ofGeorgctown, in which though play-
ed by but newly organized clubs, there was
much spirit and fine play exhibited. Par.-
ticnlaraltentioncanjnstly be made of the
fine play of'Scribner in his position, as pitch:
er of the “Mullins." He also proved himself
equal to the task of taking high fly balls
without “nary a muff," and at the but doing
some heavy work. IIurlbutt showed him-
self to be the right man in the right place.
Ward in his position of short stop proved
fatal to several of the Quicksteps and exhib-
ited such a knowledge of the game as to
show that he had seen a bull before. “01
the rest oftlie nine it may be said that they
each filled their position well.
On the part ofthe “Quicksteps,” Bennett
as pitcher did well, delivering good balls
with such a degree of speed and twist as to
make manya foul for Osbourne to secure,
which he generally did.
E Albln at the first base displayed some
science in catching, making some very fine
catches.
In general of the two clubs it may be said
that with practice they may yet have a brilf
liant future, the decisions oftlie Umpire, Mr.
Slurges of the Pastime club, of lVilton, were
prompt and received with general satisfac-
tion. The defeat of the Quicksteps, although
taken in good part can be attributed to want
of practice.
Appendcd is the score.

THE WESTERN HALF OF THE
Great National Trunk Line across
the Continent.
Being constructed with the aid and supervision of
the United States (tovcrnmerrt,15 destined to be one
the most important and valuable railroads in the
world, as it is the sole link of communication b0-
twcen the Pacific Coast and the Great Interior Ba-
sin, and the
Principal Portion of" the illainSfcm Line be—
tween the‘Two Oceans.
The present western terminus is at Sacramento,
011 the navigable waters of the Pacific; birt it will
ultimately extend from Sacramento across the richest
and most populous parts of California, Nevada and
Utali,coutiglous to all the great Mining Regions of
the "i‘ar West. The Company are authorized to con-
tinue their llric eastward until it shall meet and con-
nect with the roads 110w building cast of the Rocky
Mountain range.
Assuming that they will build and control one-half
the entire distance b0l.\\'0t11 San Francisco and the
Missouri River, as now seems probable, the United
States will have invested in the completion of 805
miles. $25,5t2,000, or at the aver-ago rate of $35,000
pcrmilc—Iiot including an absolute grant of 10,000
000 acres of the Public Lands. By becoming a joint
investor in the magnificent enterprise, and by wai-
ving its first lien in favor of the First Mortgage
Boodholders, the General Government, in effect, in-
v:tes the cooperation of private capitalists, and has
carefully guarded their interests against all ordinary
contingencies.
The Central Pacific Railroad enjoys all the privi-
leges, grants, and subsidies conferred by the Acts of
Congress upon the other parts of the through like,
and has, in addittori, snvnmL SPECIAL, EXCLUSIVE
anvanmons applicable only to the Western Ifzilf‘.
I. The Company has received from the State and
chief cities of California, assistance in money,
credit, and valuable proper-f y worth over $3,000,-
000 in gold, in addition to the full bcnelltof the
Government subsidy. . _
«II. The hardest and costliest part of its construction
has been successfully overcome within the first
150 miles. In a few weeks the track will be com-
pleted entirely across the Sierra Nevadas, alter
c11 progress to Salt Lake will be easy and
w 111
rapid. . ,
III. The local business alone oftliis road establishes
its complete financial success, independently 'of
the vast through traflic which must pass over it.
The gross earnings for the mouths of June and
July, upon theflfmiles their open for business,
were upward of‘szotfioo all gold ,' of which four-
flftlls were not earriings._ .
1V. It can have no competition, but Will carry, be-
side its own lucrative local trufllc, the whole trol-
umc of through business which is shared among
its Eastern connections and their branches.
The road lies wholly in territory yieldidg the
preciousnietal, and its revenues are collected
in coin. Its rates for transportationarc very ad-
vantageous, being more than three times of roads
lying east of it; and the mm of operating em-
penses is less than 251m- ccnl 0] the grosse am.

VI Ingconsequence of the aid it reaeives from the
General Government, from the Stafc of Califor-
nia, and from muntci pal corporations, the annual
interest. obligations which the Company are cull-
ed upon to assume are very light. 'l_‘he n‘et earn-
ings upon an average of about 75 miles, in 1806,
wercnearly three limes the amount of annual
interest liabilities to be assumed in building
if, and were $235,000 more than the animal lu-
teresf on [he entire amount of First Mortgage
Bonds which the Company can. issue upon the
Jlrsf 150 miles.
The Company offer for sale, through us, their
First Mortgage Thirty Year, Six per
Cent. Coupon Bonds,
PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST PAYABLE IN
GOLD 001A“, in N cw York city, They are in sums
of $1,000 each, with smut-annual gold coupons at-
tached, and are selling for the present at 95 per cent.
and accruedinterest from J irly lst added, in curren-
cy, at which ratc- tlicy yield nearly
NINE PER CENT. UPON THE INVESTMENT.
These Bonds, authorized by Act of Wrigress, are
issued only as the work progresses, and to the
same amount only as the Bonds granted by the Gov-
ernment; and represent, in all cases, the first lien
upon a completed, equipped,and productive railroad,
in which have been invested Government subsidies,
stock subscriptions, donations, surplus earnings, etc.
and is worth more than three times the amount of
First Mortgage Bonds which can be issued upon it.
The agreement of this Company to pay principal
and interest of their Bonds in coin, being made un-
der the Specie Contract Law of California, authori-
zing and enforcing contracts to pay gold is legally
binding, unlike similar agreements made by compa-
nies in States where no such legislative sanction ex-
isfs.
In these important particulars the Securities oftlie
Central Pacific Company offer an. unusual degree of
safety, stability andproflt combined.
TIIE FinsT IllIORTGAGE BONDS on Tiris COMPANY
are destined to occupy a prominent place among
FIRST CLASS SECURITIES in the money markets
of this country and Europe, and will, without doubt,
be eagerly sought for, and anxiously dealt in hereaf-
ter, at rates materially in advance of the price at
which they are now offered.
Having carefully investigated the resources, prog-
ress, andprospccts oftlie road, and the management
of the Company‘s affairs, we cordially recommend
these Bonds to Trustees, Executors, Instructors,
and others as an eminently semi/l, reliable and re-
mzmoi'alicejorm of permanent inrescmenl.

Building, for your
.UNION PACIFIC
Railway Co.
Their FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS
As an Investment.
The rapid progress of the Union Pacific Railroad,
new building west from Omaha, Nebraska, and for- >
ming, with its western connections, an unbroken
line across the continent, attracts attention to the
value of the First Mortgage Bonds which the Com-
pan y now offer to the public. The first question
asked by prudent investors is, “Are these bonds sc—
cure ?" Next, “Are they a profitable investment '3"
To reply in brief :
list. The early completion of the whole great line
to the Pacificis as certain as any future business
event can he. The government grant of over twen-
ty million acres of land and fifty million dollarsin its
own bonds practically guarantees it. One fourth of
the work is already done, and the track continues to
be laid at the rate of two miles a day.
2d. The Union Pacific Railroad bonds are issued
upon what promises to be one of the most profitable
lines of railroad in the country. For many years it
must be the only line connecting the Atlantic and
Pacific; and being without competition, it can
maintain remunerative rates,
3d. 425 miles of this road are finished, and frilly
equipped, with depots, locomotives, ears, 10c” and
two trains are daily riinriin g each way. The materi-
als for the remaining 92 miles to the eastern base of
the Rocky Mountains are on hand, and it is under
contract to be done in September.
4th. The net earnings of the sections already
finished are several times greater than the gold inter-
est upon the First Mortgage Bonds upon such sec-
tions, and if not another mile of the road were built
the part already completed would not only pay in-
terest and expenses, brit be profitable to the-Com.
puny. -
5th. The Union Pacific Railroad bonds can be is-
sued only as the road progresses, and therefore can
never be in the market unless they represent a bona
flde property.
0th. Their amount is strictlylimitcd by' law; to a
sum equal to what is granted by the U. S. Govern-
ment, and for which it takes a second lien as its se-
curity. This amount upon the first 517 miles west
from Omaha is only $10,000 per mile.
7th. The fact that the U. S. Government considers
a second lien upon the road a good investment, and
that some of the shrewdest railroad builders of the
country have already paid in five million dollars up-
on the stock (which is to theme third lien) may well
inspire confidence in a first lien.
Stb. Altliougliitis not claimed that there can be
any better securities than governments, there are
parties who consider a first-mortgage upon such a
property as this the very best security in the world
and who sell their Governments to re-invest in
these bonds—thus securing a greater interest.
9111. As the Union Pacific Railroad Bonds are offer
ed for the present at 90 cunts on a dollar and accrued
interest, they are the cheapest security in the mar-
ket. being more than 15 per cent. less than U. S.
Stocks.
At the current rate of premium on gold, they pay
