INVESTMENTS IN MUCH.
There has been nothing in tlie month to put a material check
demand for investment bonds, and the general tendency
of the market hag been towards firmer prices.
As to United States Government securities, the lessened pros-

oi»-tlie

^

'

pect that the bill introduced into Congrees, providing for the issue

of 4i per cent bonds, will

become a law in its original shape, has
giving more confidence to the recent dealings in
five-twenties.
In discussing the question of the position which
the credit of the United States ought fairly to occupy, there are
had the

effect of

—

two practical considerations which are uppermost first, that a
bond must be offered which complies with the usual requisites of
an acceptable government security in the financial centres of
Kurope, London and Frankfort. It must be a long bond having
a. definite time to
run and payable positively in gold. Hitherto
tliore has really been no bond which furnished a true gauge of
I'nited States credit abroad, as the uncertain periods of the fivetwenties and ten-forties make them an anomalous sort of govern-

ment bond, while the currency sixes are not acceptable abroad,
and the sixes of 1881 mature so soon that they can not command
anything like the price of a thirty to fifty year bond. Assuming
that the bonds offered are made in a form acceptable to capitalists,
the next question which must be most seriously considered
by foreign money lenders
likely to obtain

is

in regard to the political influences

control in this country.

The question of

the

and the impaired credit of the municipality.
The stock and bonds of corporations, together with real estate
mortgagee, must continue to form a large part of the investments
by private parties in this country, and it is desirable to throw
around them every practicable safeguard, through the means of
reasonable legislative enactments, and by careful requirements
and customs of the several stock exchanges in our leAding cities,
as well as among dealers and private bankers. The bonds based
on real estate mortgages are not a public and negotiable secarity,
and do not, therefore, come within the scope of our present discussion, excepting those, perhaps, which are guaranteed by a
mortgage company and which thus have a more definite market
value attached to them. We have frequently referred to those
of the Equitable Trust Company, thus negotiated, and It would
seem that the demand for loans on real estate security will
eventually lead to the organization of companies for the special
purpose of lending on real estate, not at the West alone, where
rates of interest are 2 per cent higher, but also in this city and
vicinity.
The expense of examining title, together with the
positive endorsement of a substantial and conservative corporation
should easily enable the borrower to pay 1 per cent for the
services rendered.
One of the principal objections now to good
real estate mortgages is that they are next to useless for sale, or
as collaterals for loans on short notice; they have no ascertained
market value, and it is only after a long and expensive examination of title that they can be disposed of.

Railroad bonds have grown in favor quite remarkably since the
beginning of the year, and it is difficult now to find good 7 per
cent first mortgages at or near par.
The idea has prevailed that
!)he weakness in railroads was pretty thoroughly tested by the
years 1874 and 1875, and this has been encouraged by the considerable improvement in earnings exhibited in the post two months.
Late experience must have suggested to bondholders the fact that
a well secured business and a large annual surplus above interest
charges have been the safest things to rely on for the payment of
banker in a less favorable light than those of the best govern- their interest. A list of prominent officers or directors (though

withdraw from the Union has been thoroughly
settled by the late war
and as to the matter of our ability to pay
the present outstanding debt, there is not even the opportunity
for discussion, as the total amount is too insignificant when compared with the actual resources of the country; nor is there any
probability of war here, as our interests are all against it.
On
these points our friends abroad can have little to make them
hesitate and if there is any shadow of uncertainty which would
