THE BEST NEW YORK WEEKLY. ]
AN ANTI-ABOLITION DEMOCRATIC PAPER, j
A PAPER FOR WHITE MEN
m yobTBAY-BOOK, !
FOR 1365.
THE DAY BOOK is the oigan of Democratic
principles—'be genuine, old-fashioned principles
upun vvnich out Government was founded. It is for
WHITE SUPREMACY, STATE SOVEREIGNTY ,
and a FEDERAL UNION as the cardinal landmarks !
of American Government and Civilization. It goes '
for white men being superior and r. a groes inferior, j
just as God made them, and it asks every true man ;
who believes this, to work for the success of these
principles. THE DAY-BOOK is the only paper in i
the North that didfnctiy takes this position, and vig
orously exposes Abolitionism, Miscegenation ism, ;
and every other diabolical ism that is now rushing j
cur country into ihe horrible vortex of a disgusting
urongrelistn.
It is aiso the only weekly made up expressly tor
country circulation, the otuer New Yon. weeklies
being re-prints from daily papeie. It is, therefore, !
worth more than other papets for every item is spe
cially piepared for its columns. The news from all
parts of the world is carefully condensed, forming
a COMPLETE HISTORY OF '3 HE TIMES.
THE DAY-BOOK embraces all topics—Auaieun
' TUBE, fo.MKEHCE, MAEKSTS, STOKIKS, LITSRAEY
■ MATTER, &C., thus presenting the GREAT fai ming,
, lndusttia! and working classes a cheap and reliable
weekly, containing ali they need without tne trou
j b!e and expense of reading so many newspapers.
The price ot TIIE DAY-BCOK IS lower thau that of
any paper wade up, as it is, from original matter.
The superior condensation of new s, arrangement of
a-ticles, &e., make it actually worth double the
price of a weekly in which the matter is cadly ar
. .u.ged and hurriedly te-printed from a daily.

PATENTED JAN LAKY l*i, 18GI.
This Rake combines greater improvements, and
! more effective capabilities, than any ever before
; offered to the Agriculturist.
1 As the teeth are elevated and depressed by the
| foot ol the driver, his hands are left free Jo guide
| his 'cam with precision, and keep it under perfect
! control.
i As each rake-tooth is capable of an independent
vertical movement, th* rake will operate pcifeetly
' over the most uneven surface with a uniform pres
sure; and wi!', consequently,
RAKE GRAIN It GRASS PERFECTLY CLEAN.
This rake is solidly constructed of durable mate
; rials, and is so simple and direct in its operation
that any boy who can manage a borse in harness
j can, with this Rake, do perfect work.
| Agents wan'ed in every county seat throughout
| the State to sell this HORSE RAKE.
Having lately made new improvements I feelcon-
S fident that I can give full satisfaction to farmers
generally. I would refer the public to Hon. Job
Mann, Asa Stiver, John James, Adam Dibert, Sam
| tiel Boor, Michael Dibert, Isaac lmler, Charles M.

THIRD SERIES.
$930,000,000.
By authority of the Secretary of the Treasury, j
the undersigned, the General Subscription Agent
tor the sale of United States Securities, offers to
ihe public the third series of Treasury Notes, bear
ing seven and three-tenths per cent, interest per
annum, known as the
7-30 L a A N .
These notes are issued under date of July 15, 1565,
and are payable three years from that date in cur
rency, or are convertible at the option of the hold
er into
l r . S. Siv er ceuL
GOLD BEARING BONDS
These Eonds are now worth a handsome premium, |
and are exempt, as are all the Government Bonds, j
frorn State, County, and Municipal taxation, which !
adds from one to three per cent, per annum to their j
value, according to tberate levied upon other prop- j
crty. The intertst is payable semi-annually by j
coupons attached to each note, which may be cut'
oft and sold to any bank or banker.
The interest at 7-30 per cent, amounts to
One cent p L r Jay on a S3O note.

, Notes of all the denominations named will he 1
| promptly furnished upon receipt of subscriptions, j
I The Notes of this Third Series are precisely sim- j
; ilar in forn and privileges to the Seven-Thirtiesal- j
: ready sold, except that the Government reserves to ,
' itself the option of paying interest in gold coin at
' 0 per cent., instead of 7 3-10ths in currency. Sub-!
j sciibers viif deduct the interest in currency up to
July 15th, at the time when they subscribe.
i The delivery of the notes of this third series of
I '
the beven-thirties will commence on the Ist of June
j and will be made promptly and continuously after
' that date.
, The slight change made ih the conditions of this
! THIRD SERIES affects only the matter of interest
The payment in gold, if made, will be equivalent
| to the currency interest of the highpr rate.
The return to specie payments, in the event of
which only will the option to pay interest in Gold
; be availed of, would so reduce and 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 Llarket
Now offered by the Government, and its superior
advantages make it the
( Ureal Papular Loan of Hie People.
j .Less than $230,000,000 of the Loan authorized
by the 123t Congress are now on the market. This
amount it iate at which it is being absorbed,
I 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 of her Loans.
In order that citizens of every town and section
of the country may be afforded facilities forisking
, the loan, the National Banks, State Banks, and Pi"'-
; vate Bankers thioughout the country have general
-liy agreed to receive subscriptions at par. Subscri
bers will select their own agents, in whom the*
have confidence, and who only are to be responsible
! for the delivery of the notes for which they receive
orders.

TO ADVERTISERS.
The circulation of the PHILADELPHIA AGE, which
is steadily and rapidly growing, makes it at least as
vaiua ble a medium for advertising as any other com
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 Pt.iladelbhia paper,
commends it to an extraordinary degree, as a means
oi communicating v.ith the public not possessed by
any other journal published in this city.
THE AGE is NOW ESTABLISHED ON A SORE AND
PERMANENT FOUNDATION. The publishers could ea
sily fill their columns with the unsought ar.d most
liberal commendations of the press throughout the
country; but they prefer that it should stand alto
gether upon claims to public confidence well-known
and established. It will be, as heretofore, the sup
porter of true National, Conservative, Democratic,
Union principles, opposed alike to radicalism and
fanaticism in every form, and devoted to the main
tenance of Good Government, Law and Order. The
revival of all the business relations of the country,
consequent upon the suppression of the rebellion
ai.d tb'j restoration of peace, will enable the Pub
lishers to make a number of improvements in the
various departments of this journal, and they, there
fore, respectfully solicit the support of all wbo wish
to secure one of the best Commercial, Literary,
Business and Family newspapers in ike country.

The property of the above named company, which
is about being oiganized under the mining laws of
Pennsylvania, consists of the following valuable
territory, to wit i
1. A lease of one half acre, known as "No. 3,"
i on the Tenney & Storrow purchase, on Cheriy Run,
Venei.go county, Pa., just above the celebrated
'•Reed' ; well and within a stone's Throw of a well
just struck, flowing at present per day.
A new derrick erected upon the lot. One half the
oil to the company.
2. A lease of one half acre, if) close proximity
to the above, known as "Hits. 6," on the Tenney 4"
Storrow purchase on Cherry Run. A new derrick
erected upon the lot. One half the oil to the com
! party.
3. The refusal for sixty days, of a lease on-Sugar
Creek, of two acres of gtouncf; fire-eighths of the
oil to the company.
4. Seven acres in f*e simple on the waters of
Ritchoy Run, one mile from its junction with the
Allegheny, about the s :w distance from the Fox
and Wtdel well, owned by the "S'urrp Islands Oi!
Goinpuny." AH flat, boreable territory, at present
under cultivation, with a good frame house upon it.
.0. Three acres in fee g. triple on the Allegheny
river, jut below tne mouth of the Clarion river.
There :s room on ti is tract for a half dozen wells.
The "Allegheny and Clan in River Oil Company,"
of Philadelphia, ate ncrw sinking several wells im
mediately opjjosife this property, wi'h excellent
piospects of success.
1.-, presenting the above basis to ihe public, 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
fess to be baseu upon a million capital. The Cherry
Run region has proved to be the surest oil-producing
territory yet discovered. Nine-tenths of the wells
bored on this stream have been successful. The
great -Reed" wei', flowing 375 barrels per day. the
tMountain" well flowing 400, and in fact nearly all
of the large wells yet struck, vie located on Cher
ry RJU.
It is pioposeu '0 sell a sufficient number of shares
to pay for the territory and raise working capital
lor its development, at the low price of twenty-five
cents p- - shar . ill-is placing every subscribe) to this
fund on. the ground-jioor, and giving each subscriber
a pro rata interest in the territory, engines, end other
property of the company, as well as the shares of
stock remaining unsold after the purchase money
and working capital are raise!. From th# nature of
the leases, boring upon them must be commenced
within sixty days from the 20th of April, 186.5,
which is a sufficient guaranty that the company
will proceed without delay to the development of
its territory.
