70,000 BONDS.
The city of Atlanta has Seventy Thous
and Dollars in Eight per cent. Twenty
Years’ Bonds, now ready for sale at the of
fice of J. H. Goldsmith, City Treasurer, and
at the Banking office of John H. James.
These Bonds have been Issued strictly by
authority of a provision in the New City
Cliarter, which authorizes the City Connell
to issue “New Bonds” to take up maturing
Bonds only. The financial condition of the
city was never better, and must continue to
improve, as the debt must be reduced every
year, and oannol he Increased. These are the
last Bonds that will be issued until July,
1887. There is no reason why these Bend*
should not be worth as much as Georgia
Eighths. There is no better invesment for
guardians and bdministrators, and should
be all taken by our own citizens, as they are
non-taxable and a first-class investment
Some of these Bonds are of denomination of
$500.00.
. The eld Ronds.
Which IWI due on the first day of January
will be paid promptly, whetherthe new ones
are sold or not, as this has ever;been the cus
tom of the city. R. F. MADDOX,
