The committee of the Board of Trade to
whom was referred the subject of "tidal
boom'' to prevent the return of the ice at
the "IIorBeshoe" after it has once passed that
Eoint, hare reported against the plan as not
eing practicable. The board passed resolu
tions of thanks to our Congressmen for seour
ing the passage of the law which allows goods
destined for this city to come by way of New

the proviso that they will be again advanced

The umpire, Judge El well, arrived at Potts

ers, yesterday, heavily armed and under the

GREAT NATIONAL
LOANS.
NEW FIVE PER CENT. BONDS OF TIIE
UNITED STATES.
The Treasury Department is now able to
promise that the registered Certificates of
Stock, and a good part of the Coupon Bonds
of the New Loan of the United States, bear
ing Five Fer Cent. Interest, payable quarterly
in Gold, will be ready for delivery early in the
present month. The Subscriptions to the
Loan now amount to $02,000,000, and it is
expected that the Subscriptions and Sales will
progress more rapidly when the Certificates
and Bonds are ready for market abroad as
well as at home. The whole sum of Five
Ter Cents offered to the publio generally, and
to the holders of United States 5-20 Bonds,
without qualification, is $200,000,000. When
this amount, to which preference is thus
given, is taken up, the remainder of the Five
Per Cents, $300,000,000, embraced in the
New Loan of July 14, 1870, for refunding the
Publio Debt, will be offered in connection
with $300,000,000 Four and One-half Per
Cents, and any part of $700,000,000 of Four
Per Cents, the one running fifteen years, and
the other thirty years.
The following is a copy of the New Five
Per Cent. Bond, under and pursuant to the
New Loan Act of Congress:
FORM OF 5 PER CENT. BOND.
INTEREST FUNDED LOAN OP 1SS1 5 FER CSNT.
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
ARE INDEBTED TO TDE BEARER IN THE SUM OF
DOLLARS.
THIS BOND is issued in accordance with the pro
visions of an Act of Congress entitled "An Act to
authorize the refunding of the National Debt," ap
proved July 14, 1870, amended by an Act approved
January 20, 1871, and is redeemable at the pleasure
of the United States, after the first day of May, A.
D. 1SS1, in Coin of the standard value of the United
States on said July 14, 1370, with interest in such
Coin, from the day of the date hereof, at the rate of
FIVE PER CENTUM per annum, piyaWe quarterly,
on the first day of February, May, August, and No
vember, in each year. The principal an! interest
are exempt from the payment of all Taxes or Duties
of the United States, as well as from taxation in any
form, by or under State, municipal, or local autho
rity. Washington, , 13....
Entered Recorded
Register of the Treasury.
EEGISTEItED BONDS
will be issued of the denominations of $."0,
$100, $500, $1000, $5000, and $10,000, and
coupon bonds of each denomination except
the last two. The interest will be payable in
the United States at the office of the Treasu
rer, any Assistant Treasurer, or designated
depositary of the Government, quarterly, on
the first days of February, May, August, and
November in eaoh year.
TIIE INTEREST ON THE REGISTERED
STOCK
of this Loan, it is determined by the Trea
sury Department, will be paid as conveniently
to the holder as on the Coupon Stock, and
personal attendance, or attendance by proxy
at the Treasury, to draw and receipt for the
Interest, will be dispensed with, whenever Vie
check of the United (States Treasurer, mailed
punctually to the address and order of each
holdei', on or before every quarter-day, is pre
ferred to such attendance. This cheok, pay
able in Gold Coin at the Treasury in New
York (or such other office as the Stock is
registered atj, will be negotiable or collect
able on the indorsement of the owner or
owners of the Stock. In pursuance of this
arrangement, the subscribers to, or pur
chasers of, the Stock in its registered form
(which is a complete protection against theft
or other losses incident to Coupon Bond
payable to Bearer) are advised to give their
Post Office address in full, and to notify of
any change in the address between quartar
days. The whole proceeds of the new loan will
be applied to the payment or redemption and
cancellation of the 5-20 years six per cent,
bonds, and, in addition to these pr)ceed4,
the 5-20s are now being reduced by purchase
at the rate of $10,000,000 per month.
The entire effect, therefore, of the new
loan, in connection with the existing sinking
fund process of the Treasury, is to reduce
both principal and interest of the publio debt
of the United States. The loan creates no
additional supply of Government stooks, while
the application of the surplus revenues de
rived in gold from customs is constantly les
sening, as it has been doing for two years
past, the funded stocks bearing six per cent,
gold interest..
The 1st of May schedule of the publio debt,
which has just been published by the Secre
tary of the Treasury, shows a reduction in
these Stocks sirce the April schedule of
$12,215,700, and a further lessening of the
yearly interest charge thereon of $732,912.
This leaves the total yearly interest charge
in Gold $111,982,031. In the same month
Ihe Treasury paid and cancelled $2,470,000
of the Three per Cent. Currency debt, re
ducing the whole of this debt bearing interest
to $51,023,000, and the yeaily interest charge
thereon to $1,537,470.
The proposed further reduction of the an
nual interest charge upon the rublio Debt by
refunding is as follows:
Bv exchange of 500 000.000 United
States six per cents, for new five per
cent of 181... 15,000,000
By exciiange or faoo.ooo.uuo united
