ABOUT TWO HUNDRED MILLIONS remain unsold, and this amount is scarcely sufficient to furnish a bash; for the cironiation of the National Banking Association now being formed In every part of the Country. But a short time must elapse before this loan is whoa ab sorbed, the demand from. Europe, GerManY especially, being quite active. As it is well known that the Secretary of the Trea sury has ample and unfailing resources in the defies On IMports, internal revenues, and in the issue of interest bearing Legal Tender Treasury Notes, it is nearly cer tain that it will not be necessary for him for a long time to come , to Irene farther permanent Loans, the interest and principal of which are payable in Gold. These considerations must lead to the prompt conoln- sion that thetime is not far distant when these " Five- Twenties" will sell at a handsome premlam, ae was the result with the " Seven thirty" Loan, when it wm all sold, and could no longer be enbserlbed for at Par. This is a the interest and principal being payable in coin, that Yielding about swum per cent. per annum at the present Premium on gold. It is called " rive-Twenty," from the fact that whilst the Bonds may ran for twenty years, yet the Go*ern ment has the right to Pay them offin pad at par, at any time after fire years. The interest is paid half yearly on the first days of No vember and Haw. _ Subscribers can have Coupon Sonde which are paya ble to bearer and issued for $6O, $lOO, WO. and *l,OOO, or Registered Bonds of similar denominations, and in addition $6,000 and $lO,OOO. These "Five-Twenties" cannot be texed by States, cities, towns, pr counties, and the Government fax on them Is Only one and a half per cent, on the amount of income, when the income exceeds six hundred dol lars per annum. Income from all other investments, such as mortgages, railroad stocks, bonds, &c., mus Pay from three to five per cent. tax on the income. Banks and Bankers throughout the country will con tinue to dispose of the Bonds, and. all orders by mall or The. Treasury. Department having perfected arrange ments for the prompt delivery of Bonds, Subscribers will be enabled to receive them at the time of subscri bing, or at farthest in FOUR days.

Thesobooke, enumerated above, are in every particular rtit to the present date—the Geography of to day. The Pnblishers also beg to call• attention to a few Points here stated, and to the commendations following-1 L THz COMPLETENESS Os' TOE SERIFS.—The subiect is taken up at the lowest point, beginning with the '" Pirat Lessons,?' intended for young children who have just learned to• read, and is carried forward by a regular sue cession-of bo4lis, an a uniform plau, ati far as it is ever' taught as a school study. 2. THE 11171,011141T1C OF THE SERIES.—'Tie Is SOOHlocl by carrying threngh the entire series, in a uniform manner, every change or improvement adopted in - anyone of the books. The scholar, passing from'a lower book to a, higher, has nothing to' unlearn. There are no - impedi ments growing out of discrepancies in the maps, or changes in thenanies and definitions. Whatever is giv en in one book, if givenin another, is presented in the Same form and order. 3. THE THOROIIOIIIMES WITH' STOWE THE SERIES IS KEPT CIP TO THE TOMS. —Geography is essentially a progressive deuce. At the present time this is eminently the case- There Is hardly a nationality in the world which haanot materially changed: its boundaries in. the last ten year's. Fcientifle and - commercial travellers ales, are yearly trans ferring large regions of Mid earth's snrface from the'un known to the known. The proprietors of Mitchell's Se rice's mploy constantly a. skilful geographer, with a cons patent corps of neeistantsorhose sole business is taken, np the work of continual reviltion, and. to transfer 4mme diately to the snaps and to the texts every changaregni red by political revolutions, or by the progreas of mien"- tide discovery. MBB. 0. M. DEVOE." . , _ 4 TEE EXTREME BEATTIE AND FINENESS OF THEMAPS. —This was a marked feature - of the work when it was first piojected. This character, thus early impressed upon the work,bas been steadily maintained. The maps, in this respect, may safely challenge comparison with those of any School Geographies published in the wor;d. The' beautiful delicaoy of finish not only makes them more attractive to the eye, bat aide the scholar essen tially in studying them. Everything is perfectly clear 'and plain. Even where the mapS are most crowded, there Is no confusion. 6. THE I`RESFINESS 'AND BEADIY 'OF' THE PICTORIAL' ILLoarnAtfoxs —lnstead of the old hackneyed subjects, half fabulous, half distorted, and wholly repulsive, the :new series contain elegant pictures, made from origi nal designs, by professiongl artiste, often from photo grapbs taken on the spot. and representing truthfully :to the eye seines and persons of lifing interest in this .present age of the world. 6.
