MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS—Tile Pianoforte
has long been the popular home and con
cert instrument, yet in point of swelling and
sustaining the tones it is extremely defective.
0n accormt of this deficiency, music written
in chords, or in a connected style, cannot be
satisfactorily executed, as the long notes re-
sult in diminuendos where they should be
sustained. The taste for the Organ and or-
chestral style of music is being rapidly devel-
oped, and widely diffused—and the time is
approaching, when the demand for this sus-
taincd style of music will supersede the pres-
ent Piano compositions. There are no in-
struments citpable of such fine expression in
this style of music as the AMERICAN ORGANS,
nranutiictured by Messrs. S. - D. & H. W.
Smith, of Boston. There delicacy and va-
riety 1n the voicing renders them susceptible
of beautiful orhestral effects, by the skillful

~ use of the tremolo and the iinproved knee
swell, while the deep manual sub-bass which
rs added to the new styles, gives the closest

750 MILES

OF THE

UNION PACIFIC ‘

RAILROAD

Are now finished and in operation. Although this
road is built with great rapidity, the work is thor-
oughly done, and is pronounced by the United States
Commissioners to be first-class in every respect, be-
fore it is accepted, and before any bonds can be issued
upon it.

Rapidity and excellence of construction have been
secured by a complete division of lobor, and by dis-
tributing the twenty thousand men employed along
the line for long distances at once. It is now proba-

ble that the '

Whole Line In the Pacific will he
completed 1111869.

The Company have ample means of which the Gov-
ernment grants the right of way, and all necessary
timber and other materials found along the line of its
operations; also 12,800 acres of land to the mile, taken
in alternate sections on each side of the road; also
United States Thirty-year Bonds, amounting to from
816,000 to 848,000 per mile, according to the difficul-
ties to be surmounted on the various motions to be
built, for which it takes a second mortgage as securi-
ty, and it is expected that not onl} the interest, but
the principal amount may be paid in services render-
ed by the Company in transporting troops, mails, 850.

THE EARNINGS OF THE UNION PACIFIC
RAILROAD, from its Way or Local Business only du-
ing the year ending J unc 30th, 1868, amounted to ov-
er

Four Million Dollars,

which after paying expenses was much more than
sufficient to pay the interest upon its Bonds. These
earnings are no indication of the vast through traffic
that must follow the opening of the line to the Pacif-
ic, but they certainly prove that

FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS

upon such property, costing nearly three times their
amount,

Are Entirely Secure.

The Union Pacific Bonds ran thirty years, are for
81,000 each, and have coupons attached. Theybear an-
nual interesbpayable on the first days of January and
July at the Company’s Office in the City of New York
at the rate of six per cent in gold. The principal is
payable in gold at maturity. The price is 102, and
at the present rate of gold, they pay a liberal income
on their cost.

A very important consideration in determining the
value of these bonds is the length of time they have to
run. ~

It is well known that along bond always commands
'a much higher price than a short one. It. is safe to
assume that during the next thirty years, the rate of
interest in the United States will decline as it has
done in Europe, and we have a right to expect that
such six per cent. securities as these will be held at. as
high a premium as those of this Government, which
in 1851' were bought in at from 20 to 23 per cenhabove
par. The export demand alone may produce this re-
sult, and as the issue of a private corporation, they
are beyond the reach of political action.

The Company believe that their Bonds at the pres-
ent rate, are the cheapest security in the market, and
the right to advance the price at any time is reserved.
