SPECIAL ADVANTAGES OF THIS LOAN.
IT IS A NATIONAL SAVINGS; BANK,' offering a
higher rate of interest than any other, and the best se
curity. Any savings bank which pays its depositors
inU. S. Notes, considers that it-is paying in the best
circulating medium of the country, and it cannot pay'
in any thing better, for its own assets are either in Go
vernment securities or in notes or bonds payable in Go
vernment paper.
Convertible Into a Six per cent. 5-20
Gold Bond.
In addition to the very liberal interest on the n&tes
for three years; this privilege of con.version is now
worth about three per cent, per annum, for the current*
rate for 5* 20 Bonds is not less than nine per cent . pre
mium, and before the war the premium on six per cent.
U. S. stocks was oyer twenty per cent. It will be seen
that the actual profit on this loan, at the present market
rate, ie not less than ten per cent, per annum.
fls Exemption from State or Municipal
Taxation.
Bat aside from ail the advantages we have enume*
rated, a special Act of Congress exempts all bonds and
Treasury notes from local taxation. On the average,
this exemption is worth about two par cent, per annum,
according to the rate of taxation in various parts of the
country. - .. ..
It is believed that no securities offer so great induce- 1
ments-to leaders as those issued by the Government.
In all other forms of indebtedness", the faith or ability
of private parties, or stock companies, or separate com
munities,., only, is pledged for. payment, while the
whole property of the country ie held to eeeure the dis
charge of all the obligations of the United States.
Up to the 24th of September, the subscriptions' to this
loan amounted to over
$40,000,000.
Subscriptions will be received by’the Treasurer of the
United States, at-Washington, the several Assistant

wearer, in consequence of its great elasticity and flexi
bility, to place and fold the Bkirt when In use as easily
and with the same convenience as a silk-or muslin
dress. It entirely obviates and silences the only objec
tion to hoop skirts, vis: the annoyance to the wearer
as well.as-theynblic, especially in crowded assemblies,
carriages, railroad cars, churchpews,or In any crowded
place, from the difficulty of contracting them cooccupy
ing a small space. > This entirely'removes the difficulty,
while giving the skirt' the usual full and symmetrical
toim, and is the lightest and most stylish and graceful
appearance for the street, opera, promenade, or house
dress. A- lady having' enjoyed the pleasure, comfort,
and great convenience of'wearing the Duplex Elliptic
spnngrSklrt for a single day,-will never afterward
willingly dispense with the use of them. They are the
best Quality la every part, and by far the lightest, most
