U. S. 7-30 LOAN.
BY authority of the Secretary Or tit 9 Treasury, the
undersigned has assumed the General SubseriSion
Agency for the s ale of United States Treasury Notes,
bearing seven and three tenths per cent. interest, per
annum, known as the
SEVEN-THIRTY LOAN,
. . .
These Notes are issued under date of August 16th,
1864, and are payable three years from that fime,'ln
currency, or are convertible at the option of the hold
er into
U. S. 5-20 Six per cent.
Gold Bearing Bonds.
These bonds are now worth a premium. of nine per
eent., including gold interest from Nov., which makes
the actual profit on the 7-3) loan. at current rates, in
cluding interest, about ten per cent, per annum, besides
its exemption from State and
_municipal taxation,
which wikiw.rwifirtille
lag to the rate levied on oilier property. The interest
Is payable semi-annually by coupons attached to each
note, which may be cut off and eold•to any bank or
banker.
The inter et amounts to
One Cent per day on each * 50 note
Two dents " " 100

Twenty " " 1.000 "
One Dollar " 5,000 "
Notes of all the denominations named trill be
promptly furnished upon receipt of subscriptions.—
This is
The only Loan in Market
now - offered by the Government, and it is confidently
expected that its superior advantages will make it the
GREAT POPULAR LOAN OF THE PEOPLE.
Less than $200,000,000 remain unsold, which will
probably be Ilisposed of within the next 01 or 90 days
when the notes will undoubtedly command a premium,
as has uniformly been the case on closing the sub
striptions 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 Private
Bankers throughout the country have generally
ages dto receive subscriptions at par. Subscribers

"Once upon a time," as the,-"story
tellers" have it, we:were,sailinidoWn
the great ' , lather of waters," the:gis
sissippi,. in the beautiful - steamer
"Goddess of Liberty," bound
St, Louis to'N'eW prleans. We.had
on board the usual variety of paSsen
..
gers; but for some unexplainable
cause an unusual degree of -rnonote
ny preVailed. 'Tie true, the •card
players-were at Work, will) their ac
customed -energy; and little groups of
passengers were earnestly engaged
over the quiet game of checqers, or
draughts, while 'one little circle only
were engaged in that: old, butnow
popular game .of chess.. A..:large
number.of passengers were sitting in
the forward saloon, gazing listlessly
at each other, apparently in stupefac
tion. -
Being of an active temperament,
and fond of excitement, we could' not
suffer ennui. upon such an occasion to
get the: tipper hand of us, so with a
view tokick.ing up some - . kind of a
rumpus,for our own sake and the
relief of the passengers generally, we
walked boldly into the captain'soffice,
and laid the whole matter before the
distinguished-commander.
"We have - no music on board," the
captain remarked, or we might wake
the passengers up with a little "hop
on the light fantastic."
"Well," we replied (looking ear-.
.nestly over the list in the
. passenger
roll)'"we must have . sonie excitement
for the passage is really wearisome."
Just at that moment, our eyes fell
upon a name distinguished in the an
nals of ditibleris—no less a personage
than the celebrated wizard and-ven
triloquist, Signor Blitz, Here was
indeed reason for crying "Eureka,"
and forthwith, we proceeded in search
of the mysterious wizard. In a few
moments, the Signor was found, qui
etly reposing in his state-room, the
whole difficulty eluquently (the occa
sion called' forth the 'eloquence) laid
before him -Blitz consented to create
a little harmless fun, as he termed it;
but the sequel proved it more funny
than harmless. But, without antici
pating, the wizard entered the stew
ard's apartment and providing hint
self with a few slices of bread and.
obtaining someof his little animate
assistances, he . announced himself
prepared; but remarked that we

entered the forward saloon noiseless
ly, arm in -arm, and advanced toward
the quiet,. sleepy-looking passengers,
who, were collected together without
aim or object. While running our
eyes rapidly around the saloon in
search of a victim, our attention was
attracted towards a young man dress
ed in a deep suit of black, who was
deeply absorbed in a book, which he .
was attentively perusing.
We "nudged" the Signor; pointed
significantly at the young man,' and
received from the. former an affirma
tive answer, by a quiet movement of
the head. The Signor picked up a
stool, seated hiniself unceremonious
ly between the young stranger, and
the end of the table near by. This
movement arrested the attention of
the stranger who looked up inquir
ingly.
"You, seem to.bemuch interested
in your book sir," the Signorremark

"Yes, sir," ho replied, "a good

Signor—" Tat. depends upon the

Signor-,-"I spoke of economy, be
cause I observed some provisions in
your hat 1"
Stranger (in an offended tone.)—
"Provisions with me; I always eat
at the public table, and pay for it
too 1" •
The whole attention of the passen
gers was now centered upon the
speakers,,and considerable interest
manifested by the company in the
peculiar : subject under. .discussion.
Signor (lifting the young gent's
hat from his side, and passing it un
der the eyes of the entire group,)-:-
"I do not wish to offend yea, sir, but
I see here quite a supply of provis
ions l"
This created not a little merriment
at the expense of the stranger, which
soon increased to a laugh, as the wiz
ard drew slice alter slice of the stale
bread from the young man's hat,—
The stranger, bit, his lips in confusion
and fixed his .gaze.upon the Signor;
then, with a mac, got up from his
seat, and moved towards the state.

"Frightened ?" says one of the
lookers- : on, smiling at the sudden d is

The stranger had barely finished
his remarks, who❑ a loud yelping

the passengers began to scatter

but a few moments served to prove

the Ventriloquist.

examination „ proved the Signer's fears
groundless, and the fun . with . the
stranger continued. Now came the
squealing, of a pig, and, in a few mo
ments, tbe Signor to the great amuse

.Ifroduced from
the'stringer's'boSem a small guinea

Again the Signor was seized with
that periodical idea a wasp, and
brushed in vain with his hand to
rid himself of ' the little' tormentor.
Several of the passengers attempted to
catch the refractory wasp, but each
attempt proved futile and the attacks
.of the insect upon the Signor soon
became a portion of the general a
musement for the passengers, the
buzzing of the wasp' producing as
much fun as any of the wizards won
derful feats.
During all this time, the features
of the stranger remained placid,
though his brilliant eyes flashed, and
gave evidence of no small amount of
mischief lurking within. The ven
triloquist having failed to affect the
stranger, he resolved to try again,
apparently determined not only to
bring down the- boat but to , bring
down the stranger also.
Signor (stepping up to the strang
er,)—
"Come, friend, sing us a good song;
won't you? Don't be so quiet."
Without further remark, the Sig
nor commenced his wonderfully yen.
triloqual singing powers by singing a
favorite air, with a chorus "In, tot 10l
lob" &c., each note of whiCh appeared
to come from the mouth of the young
stranger. So complete was the de
lusion, that the stranger received
shouts of applause at its conclusion,
and notwithstanding the stranger's
positive denial of
.singing ; a single
word, the passengers insisted it was
well done. During the singing, the
Signor Was again pestered with the
buzzing in: his ear of, that indefatiga
,
.ble wasp, anil seemed Utterly unable
to freelidself from ti Lt orsl.t.lnacious
'"Now, remarked- the -stranger, as
you insist I have been singing a song
though entirely unconscious of the
act myself, I think it but fair that
Blitz should favor us with a song in
return?'
At the sound of Blitz's name, all
were on the qui vire; and now, as the
character of the.inveterate joker was
understood, the party insisted upon
a song.
Blitz (earnestly.)--:-"I tell you, gen
tlemen. lam no singer, never sang
a song in my life, except ventrilo
qually."
A voice--" That's a whopper I"
Blitz (looking around,)" who spoke;
who says I can-sing?"
A voice (gruffly,) "I do."
Notwithstanding all efforts to find
the speaker, he was non est and the
by-standers supposed the voice a
trick of the Signor's.
A vome4(apparently from the Sig
nor, who Was annoyed with the buz
zing of the wasp,) "I'll sing—l'll
sing."
Illitz—"Gentlemen, 1 did not
speak—l cannot sing, there.must be
a ventriloquist here !"
A voice (apparently the Signor's)
—"Should old acquaintance be for-
mot."
Passengeri--"0, good Heavens!
don't sing that 1"
Blitz—".l am not singing, gentle-
men ; this is a trick—a ruse,; there's

The song and remarks of the Sig
nor were interrupted by another at
tack of the wasp, and the passengers
were laughing immoderately at the
efforts of the Signor to keep Off the
stinging, buzzing, intruding insect.
Signor—" Gentlemen, let me ex
plain ; there is another ventriloquist
here. lam sure of it, and I think
this stranger, our friend, must be the

Union prisoners and refugees, has
furnished us with the following in-'

There were on board the steamer'
General 'Lyon, besides, thd officertf
and crew, two hundred and four men,-
and eleven offi.cers of the 56th Illinois'
regiment, who had been mustered
out of service and were on their way
borne, their time of enlistment hay
ing expired ; sixteen men of the 3d
Pennsylvania artillery ; one hundred'
and fifty-seven' escaped and paroled'
Union prisoners ; sixty seven mate
refugees, and fully one hundred re- .
fugee women and children, on their
way North. Besides these were two'
commissioned, officers and eighteen
enlisted men of the 99th New York,
acting as a guard, making in all ris
ing of six hundred persons on board;
of whom the small number mention
ed above is probably all that were
saved, the sea rolling so high and the'

spreading with great rapidity. With
in half an hour the vessel was com-'

the greatest excitement and coati- -
sion ensued. Immediately it was
discovered that the vessel was on fire,.
women and children ran shrieking
about, imploring to be saved—on one'
side the fire and on the other,
"The see opening like when."
Scores sprang from the infrning .

the burning mass nearer and nearer
