Sad Accident —Wednesday evening last,
Mrs. Harriet Swanger. while drawing a buck
et of water at her father's house, (J. M.
Housel, who lives within a mile east of this

The water is drawn by a windlass, and as the

rrMIE Secretary of the Treasury has nut yet
JL given notice of any intention to with
draw this popular L"an from Saie at Par. and
until ten days notice is given, the undersign
ed, as " General Subscription Ayent," will
continue to supply the public.
The whole amount of the Loan authorized
is Five Hundred Millions of Dollars. Near
ly Four Hundred Millions hare already been
subscribed for, and paid into the Treasury,
mostly within the last seven months. The
large demand from abroad, and its rapidly
increasing home demand for use as the basis
for circulation by National Banking Associ
ations now organizing in all parts of the
country, will, in a very short period, absorb
the balance. Sales have lately ranged from
ten to fifteen millions weekly, frequently ex
ceeding three millions daily, and as it is well
known that the Secretary of the Treasury
has ample and unfailing resources in the Du
ties on Imports
in the issue of the Interest bearing Legal
Tender Treasury Notes, it is almost a certain
ty that he will not find it necessary for a lung
time to come, to seek a market fur any other
long or permanent Loans. THE INTEREST
AND PRINCIPAL OF WHICH ARE
PAYABLE IN GOLD.
Prudeuoe and self interest must force the
m.nds of those contemplating the formation
ol National Banking Associations, as well as !
the minds of ail who have idle money on
their hands, to the prompt conclusion that
they should lose no time in subscribing to j
this most popular Loan. It will soon be ue
yond their reaeh, and advance to a handsome
premium, as was the result with the "Seven ;
Thirty" Loan, when it was all sold and could
no longer be subscribed for at par.
It is a Six per Cent. Loan, the Interest and
Principal payable in Coin, thus yieldtuy over
Bine per Cent, per annum at the present rate
of premium on coiu.
The Government requires all duties on im
ports to he paid iu coin ; these duties have
for a lung time past amounted to over a
ter of a Million ot Dollars daiiy, a sum near
ly three times greater than that required in
the payment of the interest of all Hie s'2U's
and other permanent Loans. So that it is
hoped that the surplus coin in the Treasury,
at no distant day, will enable the Uuind
States to resume specie payments upon all
liabilities.
The Loan is called 5 20 from the fact that
whilst the Bonds may run for 2'J years yet
the Government has a right to pay theui oil
in gold at par, at any time after 5 years.
The Interest is paid halj yearly, viz: on the
first days of November arid May.
Subscribers can have Coupon Bonds, which
are payable to bearer, and are SSO, SIOO,
SSOO, and $1000; or Regir-tered Bonds of the
same denominations, and in addition, SSOOO
and SIO,OOO, For Bunking purposes and for
investments of Trust'monies the Registered
Bonds are preferable.
These 5-20's cannot be taxed by States,
cities, towns or counties, and the Uovt-rnment
tax on them is only one and a half per cent ,
on the amount of income, when the income
of tiie holder exceeds Six Hundred dollars
per annum ; all other investments, such as
income from Mortgages. Railroad St >ek and
Bonds, etc., must pay from 3 to 5 per cent,
tax on the income.
Banks and bankers throughout the Country
will continue to dispose of the Bonds; and ail
orders by mail, or otherwise, promptly atten
ded to.
The inconvenience of a few days' delay in
the delivery of the Bonds is unavoidable, the
demand being so great; hut as interest com'
menees from the day of subscription, no loss
is occasioned, and every effort is being made
to diminish the delay.
