                         EV TRADITIONAL FLORIDA INSURED TAX FREE FUND
                          Supplement to Prospectus dated June 1, 1995

                          EV TRADITIONAL GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS FUND
                             EATON VANCE MUNICIPAL BOND FUND L.P.
                         Supplement to Prospectuses dated May 1, 1995 


       1.     Effective immediately, all purchases of shares of a Fund
of $1 million or more will be subject to a contingent deferred
sales charge ("CDSC") of 0.50% in the event of certain redemptions
within twelve months after the purchase.  Such purchases continue
to bear no initial sales charge.  (Such purchases made before March
27, 1995 will continue to be subject to a CDSC of 1% in the event
of certain redemptions made within eighteen months of purchase.) 
The Principal Underwriter will compensate Authorized Firms
responsible for such purchases at the rate of 0.50% of the amount
invested, and any CDSC incurred will be retained by the Principal
Underwriter.

       The CDSC will be imposed on an amount equal to the lesser of
the current market value or the original purchase price of the
shares redeemed.  Accordingly, no CDSC will be imposed on increases
in account value above the initial purchase price, including any
dividends or distributions that have been reinvested in additional
shares.  It will be assumed that redemptions are made first from
any shares in the shareholder's account that are not subject to a
CDSC.

       The CDSC is waived for redemptions involving certain
liquidation, merger or acquisition transactions involving other
investment companies.  No initial sales charge or CDSC will be
imposed on shares of EV Traditional Government Obligations Fund
purchased by qualified retirement plans.  If a shareholder
reinvests redemption proceeds within a 60-day period and in
accordance with the conditions set forth under "Eaton Vance
Shareholder Services -- Reinvestment Privilege," the shareholder's
account will be credited with the amount of any CDSC paid on such
redeemed shares.

       Shares of a Fund which are subject to a CDSC may be exchanged
into any of the funds listed under "The Eaton Vance Exchange
Privilege" without incurring the CDSC.  The shares acquired in an
exchange may be subject to a CDSC upon redemption.  For purposes of
computing the CDSC payable upon redemption of shares acquired in an
exchange, the holding period of the original shares is added to the
holding period of the shares acquired in the exchange.

       Consistent with the foregoing, the "Shareholder and Fund
Expenses" table is revised by replacing the line "Contingent
Deferred Sales Charges Imposed on Redemptions" with the following:

       Contingent Deferred Sales Charges 
         (on purchases of $1 million or more) 
         Imposed on Redemptions During the First 
         Twelve Months (as a percentage of
         redemption proceeds exclusive of all 
         reinvestments and capital appreciation 
         in the account)                                              0.50%

       In addition, the sales charge table under "How to Buy Fund
Shares" is revised by replacing the line "$1,000,000 or more" with
the following:

                         Sales                Sales                Dealer
                         Charge               Charge               Commission
                         as Percent-          as Percent-          as Percent-
                         age of               age of               age of
                         Offering             Amount               Offering
Amount of Purchase       Price                Invested             Price      

$1,000,000 or more         0.00%                0.00%                0.50%

       2.     The following is added to "How to Buy Fund Shares":

              Shares of the Fund may be sold at net asset value to
              an investor making an investment through an
              investment adviser, financial planner, broker or
              other intermediary that charges a fee for its
              services and has entered into an agreement with the
              Fund or its Principal Underwriter.  An Authorized
              Firm may charge its customers a fee in connection
              with transactions executed by that Firm. 

       3.     The following is added to "Reports to Shareholders":

              Consistent with applicable law, duplicate
              mailings of shareholder reports and certain
              other Fund information to shareholders residing
              at the same address may be eliminated.

       4.     The following is added to "Performance Information":

              The Fund's performance may be compared in
              publications to the performance of various
              indices and investments for which reliable data
              is available, and to averages, performance
              rankings, or other information prepared by
              recognized mutual fund statistical services.
