We cannot positively lay whether Fred.
Douglas will stump the States for Abraham
Lincoln or John. C. Fremont, this Fall, or
not; bot we are -inclined to, the belief, that
Fed. is becoming tired of the Lincoln par
ty; finding that they are a shade too black
lor his color and political opinions, he may
be induced to become one of Fremont's
orators. The nigger, organ at this place ia
considerably exercised over the probability
of losing Douglas' valuable support to their
Shoddy candidate. Aa Fred, goes so goes
the black man's vote which they so dearly
cherish, and by which they hope to re-elect
Old Abe. The blacks in the army, in Ohio,
and in New York, are governed in a great
measure by the course of Fred. Douglas.

These Bonds are issued nnder the Act
of Congress of March 8th, 1864, which
provides thai all Bonds issued under this
Act hall be EXEMPT FROM TAXATION
by or coder any state or municipal author
ity. Subscript ions to-ttee Bonds are re
ceived in United States notet or notes of
National Banks. They are TO BE RE.
DEEMED IN COIN, at the pleasure of tt;e
Government, at any period i.ot Ies than
ten nor more than forty years from their
dare, and uu'il their redemption FIVE
PER CENT. INTEREST WILL BE PAID
IN COIN, on Bonds ol noi over one hun
dred dollars annually ami on all other
Bonds semi-annually. The interest it pay
able on the brst days of March and hep
lember in each year. '
Subscribers will receive either. Regis
tered or Coupon Bonds, as they may pre
fer. Resiftered Bonds are recorded on the
books ol the U. S. Treasurer, and can be
transferred only o.t the owner's order
Coupon BoimIs are payable to bearer, and
are more convenient for commercial nses.
Subscribers lo this loan w II have the
option of having their Bonds draw interest
from March 1st, Dy faying the accrued in
teres! m coin (or ir. Ua ted Slates notes,
or the notes of National Bilks, adding fit
ly peir cent, for premium, or receive them
drawing tnterect from the dale o( subscrip
tion and deposit. As thee Bonds are
Exempt fron Manfcipal or State
Taxatiou,
their value is increased from one to three
per cent, per annnm, according to the rate
ol tax levies in various part of the coon
try. A' the present rate of premium on golJ
Ihey pay
OVER EIGHT PER CENT INTEREST
in currency, and are ot equal convenience
as a pernai.em or temporary investment.
It i believed thai no seauriiies offer so
great inducement to lenders as the various
Uet-ciiptions of U S. Bonds. In ail other
forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability
ot private parties or siocL companies or
separate communities only i pledgdd for
payment, while for the debts of the United
Sates the whole property of the - country
ia holden to secure the payment of both
principal and interest in coin..
These Bonds may be subscribed fot in
sums from $50 np to any magnitude, on
the same terms,and are thos made equally
available to ihe smallest lender and the
largest capitalist. They can be converted
into money at any moment, and ihe bolder
will have the benefit of the interest.
Ii maybe useful to state in this connec
tion that ihe total. Funded Debt of the
United Slates on which interedt is payable
in enld, on Ihe 3d day of March, 1864, Was
$768,965,000. The interest on this debt
for the coming fiscal year w ill be 84 5,937,
126, while ihe customa revenue in gold
for' the corrent fiscal year, ending June
30th, 1864, has been so far at the rale of
over $100,000 000 per annnm.
Il will be teen that even the present
gold, revennes of the Government are large
ly in excess of the wants of the treasury
for ihe payment of .gold .interest' while the
recent increase of in tariff will doubtless
raiie the annual. receipts from customs on
the same amonni of importations, to 2150,
000.000 per annnm. - I

OWING to the very, high price of Coffee,
and the great difSeoliy in procuring a good,
onitorm and reliable article our customers
have often expressed a wish thai - they
could be supplied from firt hands. It was
the intention of
Ibe Great American Tea Conpmy,
to do a strictly Tea business, but as we
have had some customers living at adis
tance that have relied upon us to supply
them exclusively with Tea and Cotiee, it
being inconvenient from ihem locome to
New York. The Great Tea Coffee Eropo
rium of ibis country and as onr Tea Tas
ter was possessed of information relating
to a Coffee that could be furnished at a
moderate price, and give universal satis
faction, and at the same lime afford the
retailer a handsome profit we have been
compelled to supplv those paries. THIS
COFFEE HAS BECOME SO POPULAR
with our customers and their salea have
increased lo such an extent that we have
been compelled io make large additions to
our macbiner), which will enable as to
supply a few more cunt mers with il. We
will therefore send it to those who may or
der. It is fast SUPERSEDING ALL OTHER
COFFEES. This coffee has been osed.for
more than a centory in Paris, and since
its introduction into tins country, it has
been in nse by some of the leading French
Restaurants here. The Parisians are said
to be the beat . judges of coffee; and ihe
sreat favor in which it is held by them is
ihe bed recommendation that ean be pro
duced for its fine flavor and healthy effects
upon the human system.
We put up bot one grade of this coffee;,
and that i of a quality that oor customers
have lound from experience will give per
fect salislaction and meet all the demands
ol their trade. It is the lowest price that
we can commend. .
We do all our business on Ihe most ex
tensive scale, buy by the cr20 and sell at
only two cents per pound profit.
We put np this coffee in barrels rnly, of
125 pounds each. This method of putting
il np saves Irom 2 in 5 cents per pound lo
the customer, and by its being in a large
quantity it retains its fine flavor much
longer in this 'orm than in any o'her. - We
send with each barrel Show Cards, Circu
lars and Posters, to assist the dealer to in
troduce il to hin customers. We hope our
customers will take pains to have them
well posted np and distributed, as it will
be to their advantage to do to.
This coffee we warrant lo give perfect
satisfactfon, and if it does not pleae, the
purchaser has the privileje of returning
Ihe whole or any part of ii within 60 days,
and having hi money relunded louetner
