Tn* Secretary *f tbe Trwanry gives notice that sub scriptions will bo receive*! for Coupon Treasury Note*, payable tbree yours from Aug. 15th, ISW, with semi-an interest at a rate of seven and three-tenth# per annum—principal and interest both to be paid in lawful money. , These notes will be convertible at the option of the holder at maturity, lntoslx per cent, goldboaring bonds, payable not less than five nor moro than twenty year* from their date, as the Government may elect. Tliey will be issued in denominations of SSO, SIOO, SSOO, $1,009 aud $5,000, aud all subscriptions must be for fifty dollars or some multiple of fifty dollar*. The notes will be transmitted to the ownors freo of transportation charges iw soon aftor tbe receipt of tbo original Certificate of Deposit as they con be prepared. As the notes draw interest from Angunt 15, person* making deposits subsequent to that'dnto must pay tbe interest accrued from date of note to date of deposit. Parties depositing twenty-five thousand dollars and upwards for these notes at any ono lime will be allowoil a commission of one-quarter of one per cent., which will bo paid by the Treasury Department upon tbo rocelpt of a bill for the amount, certified by the officer with whom the deposit was made. No deduct iuus for commissions must be made from thu deposits. Special Advantage! of This Loan. IT IT) A NATIONAL SAVINO* UA.NO, offering a higher into of interest than any other, and th* best security. Any snvings bank which pays its depositors in U. S. Notes, considers thut it is paying in the best circulating modluui of the country, and it cannot pay in anything better, for it* own assets are either in government securities or in notes or bonds payable in gcvurnmcut paper. It is equally conveniet as a temporary or permanent investment. Then<rtos can always be sold f<»r within a fraction of their face and accumulated interest, and aru the best security with banks as collaterals for disouuts. Convertible into a Bix per cent. 5-20 Gold Bond. In addition to the very liberal interest on the notes for three years, this privilege of conversion is now worth about three percent, per annum, for the current rato for 5-20 Bonds is not less than nine percent, premium , and before the war the premium In six per cent. U. 8. Btocki was over twenty per cent. It will be seen that the ac tual profit on this loan, at the present market rate, is not less than ten per cent, per annum, lis Exemption from State or Municipal Taxation. But aside from all the advantages we ha"E enumera ted, a SPECIAL Act of Congress exempts ull bonds and Treasury notes from, local taxation. On the average, this exemption 13 worth about two per cent, per annum, occordtng to the rate cf taxation in various parts of the countrV. It is believed that no securities offer So great induce ments to lenders as those ISSUED by the government.— ! In all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability OF private parties, or st«»ck companies, or separato com munities, only, is pledged fsr payment, while the whole property of the country i.I held to secure the discharge of all tho obligations of the I'niled STATES. While the government offers the most liberal tonus for Its loans, it believes that the very strongest appeal will be the loyalty aud patriotism of the people. Drpllcate certificates will bo issued for all deposits.— ; The party depositing must endorse upon the original certificate the denomination of notes required, and | w hether they are to bo issued in blank or payablo to or der. When so endorsed it must be left with the officer receiving the deposit, to be forwarded to the Treasury Department.
