These Bonds are issued under the Act of Congress of March 8th. 1864, which provides thatall Bonds is- sued under this Act SHALL BE REDEEMED IN COIN, at the pleasure of the Government, at any period not less than tem nor more than forty years from. their date, and until their redemption FIVE PER CENT. INTEREST WILL BE PAID IN COIN, on Bonds of not over ene hundred dollars annually and on all other Bonds semi annually, The in- terest is payable on the first days of March and September in each year. As these Bonds, by Act of Congress, are EXEMPT FROM MUNICIPAL OR STATE TAXATION, their value is increased from one to three per cent. per annum, according to the rate of tax levies in various parts of the country. At the present rate of premium on gold they pay OVER EIGHT PER CENT. INTEREST in currency, and are of equal convenience as a per- manent or temporary investment, It is believed that no sectri inducements to lenders as the various descrip- In all other forms of in- debtedness, the faith or ability of private parties or stock companies or separate communities only is pledged for payment, while for the debts of the United States the whole property of the country is holden to secure the payment of both principal and interest in coiu. 3 4 These Bonds may be subscribed for in rums from $50 up to any magnitude, on the same terms, and are thus made equally available to the smallest lender and the largest capitalist. They can be converted into money at any moment, and the holder will have the benefit of the interest. The Funded Debt of the United States on which interest is payable in gold, on the 3d day of March, 1864, was $763.965,000. The interest on this debt for the coming fiscal year will be $45,997 126, while the customs revenue in gold for the current fiscal year, ending June 30th, 1864, has been so far at the rate of over $10,000,000 per annum, It will be seen that even the present gold reve- nues of the Government are largely in excess of the wants of the Treasury for the payment of gold interest, while the recent increase of the tariff will doubtless raise the annual reeeipts from cus- toms on the same amount of importations, to $150,000,000 per annum. The authorized amount of this loan is $200,000,000 Instructions to the National Banks acting as loan agents were not issued until March 28, but the amount of Bonds reported sold at the U. 8, Treasury up to May lith was $48,964,900. Subscriptions will be received by the Treasurer of the United States at Washington, and the Assist- ant Treasurers at New York, Boston and Philadel- phia, and by the FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF WASHINGTON FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF BALTIMORE, and by all National Banks which are depositaries of public money, and all respectable banks and bankers throughout the country (acting as agents of the Natioral Depositary Banks,) will furnish further information on application, and afford ity to subscribers.
