    cjvtioa* from the
AMERICAN WATCH 00- :
It having come to cur knowledge that imitations ,
of the American Watch have been put upon the j
mtiket in great number, calculated by their u'ter ;
wortblessness to injure the reputation cf our genu
ine products, to protect our own interests and the
public from imposition, we again publish the trade
marks by which our Watches may invariably be
known.
Vfe manufacture four styles of Watches.
The FIEST ha* the name
• •AMERICAN WATCH CO., Waltham, Mass.,"
engraved on the iuside plate.
Xae SECOND has the name
•-APPI-FTON,TRACY + CO., Waltham, Mas'#.,"
engraved on the inside plate.
The TUIBD has the name
• P. S. BARTLETT, Waltham, Mass.," engraved '
c the inside plate.
All the above styles bave the name American
Watch Co. painted on the dial, and are warranted
in every respect.
The FOURTH has the name
"WM. ELLERY, Boston, Mass.," engraved on
the inside plate, and is not named on the dial.
All the above described v.-atches are made of va
rious si:.!, and are sold in gold or silver ca.-es, as '
may be required. I
it is baraiy possible for us to accurately describe
the numerous imitations to which we have alluded, i
They are usually inscribed with names so nearly )
approaching our own as to escape liie observation J
of the unaccustomed buyei. Some are represented i
as mailt by the 'Union Watch Co., of Boston, Alas*.,' .
—r.o such companv existing. Some are named tbe
"Soldier's Watch," to be solu as our Fourth or Win. j
tilery style, usually known as the 'Soldier's Watch.'
OlLers are named the "Appieton Watch Co.;" oth
ers the "P. S. BartLEY," instead ot our ''P. S. Eait
lettbetides many varieties named in t jch a man
ner as to convey the idea (hat they are the verira- i
lie picuuctioiis of the American Watch Company.
We also Caution the public, and particulaily sol- j
diers, again*: buying certain articles CaLLs'D watch
es, so tree!}" advertised in illustrated papers as "Ar
my Watches," "Officers' Watches," "Magic lime
utitrvers," "Arcana Watches," h:., tue prices of
which are stated to be from seven to sixteen dollars.
A good v.at;h, in these times, cannot be afforded
for any such money.
A little attention on the part ol buyers will pro- ,
tect them from gross imposition.

U.S. 7-30 LOAN.
THIRD SERIES.
§23©,©©©,©©©.
By authority of the Secietary of the Treasury,
the vndersigned, the Genera! Subscription
for the sale ot United States Securities, offers to
the public the third series of Treasury Notes, bear
ing seven and three-tenths per cent. interest per
annum, known as the
7-30 LOAN.
These notes are issued under date of July 15, 1865,
and fire payable three years from that date in cur
rency, or ere convertible at the option of the held,
er into
I. S. 3-2© Six per cer.:.
GOLD BEARXNG BOUDS
The-e Bonds ere now worth a handsome premium#
and are exempt, as are a'! the Government Bonds,
from State, County, and Municipal taxation, -which
adds from one to three per cent, per an nun to their
value , according to the rate levied upon other prop
erty. The intertst is payable semi-annuaily oy
coupons attached u> each note, which uiay be cut
ofl and sold to any bank or barker.
The interest at 7-30 per cent, amounts to
One cent per Jay on a SSO note.
Two cents " • SIOO "
Ten tl " " " SOOO "
20 " " " " SIOOO "
$1 " <• SSOOO "
Notes of all the denominations named will he
promptly furnished upon r-ceipt of subsiliptions.
The Notes of this Thru Series are precisely sim
ilar in form and privileges to the Seven-Thirties al
ready po d, except that the Government reserves to
itself the option of payirg interest in gold coin at
6 per cent., insteado: 7 3-10.as in currency. Sub
scribers will deduct the in!c r et. in curr-ncy up to
July 15tt, nt the tirr.e when they subsciile.
The delivery of ihe notes o, tfc; third series of
the Seven-thirties will c.■mmence on the Ist of June
and will be made promptly and continuously after
that date.
The slight change made in the conditions of this
THIRD SERIES affects only the matter of interest.
The payment in gold, if made, wi 1 le equivalent
to the currency interest of the higher rate.
The return to specie payments, in the event of
which only will the option to pay interest m Gold
be availed of, would so seduce arid equalize prices
that purchases made with six per cent, in gold would
be fully equal to those made with seven and three
tenths per cent, in currency. This is
The Only Loan in Market
Now offered by the Government, and its superior
advantages make it the
Great Popular Loan of the People.
Less tuan $23),000,000 of the Loan authorized
by the last Congress are now on the market. This
amount it the rate at which it is being absorbed,
will all be subscribed for within two months, when
the notes will undoubtedly command a premium, as
has uniformly been the case on closing the subscrip
tions to other Loans.
In order that citizens of every town and section
of the country may be afforded facilities for taking
the loan, the National Banks, State Banks, and Pri
vate Bankers thioughout the country have general
ly agreed to receive subscriptions at par. Subscri- 1
bers js'ill select their own agents, in whom thev
have confidence, and who only are to be responsible
for the delivery of the notes for which they receive
orders.

The circulation of the PHILADELPHIA AGE, which
! is steadily and rapidly growing, makes it at least as ;
1 valuable a medium for advertising as any other com- j
j mercial and business newspaper in Philadelphia;
' and the fact that it reaches a large class of conser
vative readers, scattered over a vast extent of coun
try, who do not Take any other'Philadelbhia paper,
I commends it to an extraordinary degree, a a means
j ot communicating with the public not possessed by ■
any other journal published in this city.
THE AGE is NOW ESTABLISHED CS A SURE AND j
' PERMANKM R.-.t:.NI>AT!CN. The publishers could'ea

liberal commendations of the press throughout the

GREAT SUCCESS
OF THE
BEDFORD CO MUTUAL OIL COMPANY
j
Over 50,000 Shares Already Sold-
Capital Stock $150,000, Par Value SI.OO. j
.Yo Favoritism. Every Subscriber on the Ground
Floor,
The property of tbe above named company, which
is about being organized under the inin.r.g laws of
Pennsylvania, consists of tbe following valuable
territory, to wit 1
3. A lease of one half aere, known as "No. 3,''
on the Tenney & Storrow purchase, on Chen y Run,
Venango county, Pa., just above the celebrated
'.Reed'' well and within a stone's throw of a well
just struck, flowing at present 100 barrels per day.
A new derrick erected upon the lot. One half the
oil to the company.
2. A '.ease of one bail acra, in rloss proXimiiy
to the above, known as "No. 6," on tbe Tenney A-
Stofrow purchase on Cherry Run. A new derrick
erected upon the lot." One half the oil to the com.
pany.
3. The refusal for si*!y days, of a lease on Sugar
Creek, of two acres of ground ; five-eighths of the
oil to the company.
A. Seven acres in fse simp's on the Waters of
Ri'chcy Run, one mile from its junction with the
Allegheny, about the same distance from tbe Fox
arid Wide! we!!, owned by the "Stump Islands Oil
Company." All flai, boteable territory, at present
under cultivation, with a good irarri.i house upon it.
5. Three acres in fee simple on the Allegheny
river, just below the rrouih of the Clarion river.
There is room on tnis trart for a half dozen wells.
The "Allegheny and Clarion River Oil Company,"
of Philadelphia, aie now several wells im
mediately opposite this property, wi*h excellent
piospects ot success.
In presenting th° above basis fo the ffaniif, it is
confidently believed that it cannot be excelled by
that of any ether company yet organized. The two
leases on Cherry Run are themselves worth more
! than the territory of many companies which pro
' less to be based upon a million cap'fit!. The Cherry
, Run region has proved to be the surest oil-prouacing
i territory yet discovered. Nine-tenths of the wells
I bored on this si ream have been successful. The
i great "Reed" well, flowing 375 barrels per day. the
| "Mountain" well flowing IhO, and in fact nearly all
| of the large sveils yet struck, are located on Cher
, iy Kan.
! It is pioposeu 'o sell a sufficient number of shares
i to pay lor the territory and raise working capital
i lor its development, at the low p.ice of tior.ntyf.-je
j cents per share, thus placing every subscriber tu this
j fund on the ground-floor, and giving each subscriber
! a pro rata interest in the territory , engines, atid other
] property of the company, as wli as the shares of
: stock remaining unsold after tbe purchase money
i and working capital are raised. From the nature of
the leases, boring upon them must be commenced
within sixty days from the 20th of April, 1565,
which is a sufficient guaranty that the company
will proceed without delay to the development of
its territory.
