FIRST MORTGAGE 
GOLD BONDS, 
Thirty Years to Run, and Issued for 
$20,000 Per Mile, 
At 90 and Accrued Interest in Currency. 
This road forms the shortest and most direct route from 
the great anthracite and semi-bituminous coal fields of 
Pennsylvania into the central part of this State, and will 
run in connection with the New York Central Road, 
which it crosses at Cayuga Bridge. Traversing, as it 
does, the finest and most populous agricultural district, 
generally known as the “Garden op the State,” its 
local traffic will be large, but its greatest source of reve¬ 
nue will be from its coal business. The road is being 
rapidly built. Iron is now being laid on a section cover¬ 
ing more than one quarter of the distance, and work on 
the whole line being pushed with great vigor, so that it 
is expected to have coal trains running by the 1st of 
November next. From our knowledge of this enteiprise, 
and after the most thorough investigation, we most con¬ 
fidently recommend the Bonds as a safe investment. 
We offer, for the present, the Bonds at 90 and accrued 
interest in currency.

The Road runs from Buffalo to the 
Detroit River, and is the Eastern link 
in the new AIR LINE FROM BUFFALO 
TO CHICAGO, and has been under 
construction for about two years past 
by railroad men who have seen the 
necessity for' a STEEL-RAIL, LOW- 
GRADE SHORT ROUTE between the 
great railroad systems which diverge 
from Chicago, Toledo, and Buffalo. 
Among the builders of the Road, by whose cash sub¬ 
scriptions 220 miles (out of 290) have already been graded, 
bridged, and made ready for the superstructure, a large 
part of the steel rails bought, all of the materials for the 
stations, and a part of the equipment purchased, are: 
MILTON COURTRIGHT, JOHN F. TRACY, DAVID 
DOWS, WM. L. SCOTT, HENRY FARNHAM, R. A. 
FORSYTH, HENRY n. PORTER, JOHN M. BURKE, 
M. L. SYKES, Jr,., B. F. ALLEN, all directors, either 
in the Chicago and North-west, or the Chicago, Rock 
Island, and Pacific; GEORGE OPDYKE, of the Midland 
Road; JOHN B. ALLEN, SIDNEY DILLON, DANIEL 
DREW, J. S. CASEMENT, J. & J STEWART, and 
F. H. WINSTON. 
THE ROAD will he 
33 MILES SHORTER 
THAN ANY OTHER ROAD, 
either BUILT or in contemplation be¬ 
tween Buffalo and Chicago, and will 
also shorten the distance between 
Toledo and Buffalo 23 miles. 
THE MAXIMUM GRADE on the entire 
line does not exceed FIFTEEN FEET 
to the mile, and Ninety-six per cent 
of the Road IS STRAIGHT. 
The ROAD WILL BE COMPLETED 
and in running order on or before 
December 31st, of this year. 
The principal and interest of the Bonds are payable 
either in New York, London, or Frankfort. 
We confidently recommend the Bonds to all classes of 
investors.

the methods of the best foreign authorities, and presented 
them in a compact hand-book. Such a work nas long been

given much of liis.own experience.
