U. S. 7-30 Loan.
The Secretary of the Treasury gives notice that sub
scriptions will be received for Coupon Treasury Notes,
payable three years from AUg. 16th, 1804, with semi-an
nual Interest at a rate of aevon and tbree-tentba per
cent, per annum—principal aud interest both to ba paid
in lawful money.
Thege notes will l>« convertible at the option of the
holder at maturity, into six per cent, gold bearing bonds,
payabla not loss than five nor more than twenty years
from their date, as the Government may elect. They
will be issued in denominations of S6O, 112 100, SSOO, $1,009
and $5,000, and all subscriptions must bu for fifty dollars
or some multiple of Gft v dollars.
Tlie notes will bo transmitted to tbe owners freo of
transportation charges as soon after the receipt of the
original Certificate of Deposit as they cau be prepared.
Aa tbe notes draw Interest from August 15, persons
making deposits subsequent to that date must pay tbe
interest accrued from date of uote to date of deposit.
Parties.depositiug tweuty-fivo thousand dollars and
upwards for these notes at any ono time will be allowed
a commission of one-quarter of:one per cent., which will
be paid by tbo Treasury Department upuu tbe receipt of
a bill for the amount, certiflW by the officer with whom
the deposit was made. No deductions for commissions
must be made from tbo deposits.
Special Advantages of This Loan.
It is a National Savinos Hand, offering a higher rute
of interest than any other, and the but neurit y. Any
savings bank which pays its depositors in U.S. Notes,
considers that It is paying in the best circulating medium
of the country, and it cannot pay in anything better, for
its own asset* are either in government securities or iu
notes or bonds payable iu geverniuent paper.
It is equally conveuiet as a temporary or permanent
investment. Tlie notes can always be sold for withiu a
fraction of their face and accumulated interest, and are
the best security with banks as collaterals for dlsount*.
Convertible into a Six per cent. 5-20 Goltl Bond.
In additiou to the very liberal Interest on tbu liutes for
throe years, this privilege of conversion is now worth
about three porcent. per annum, 112 >r the current rate f-r
5-20 Bonds is not less than nine j*tr cent, premium, and
beforo the war the premium iu six per cent. U. 8. stocks
was over twenty per cent. It will be seen that the ac
tual profit on this loan, at the present market rate, is uot
less than ten per cent, per annum.
Its Exemption from State or Municipal Taxation.
Rut aside from all the advantages wo hife enumera
ted, a special Act of Congrc*s exempts all UHUIII und
Treasury notes from lucal taxation. On the average,
this exemption is worth about two per cent, per annum,
occording to tbe rate of taxation iu various parts of tbu
country.
it is believed that no securities oflbr so great induce
ments to lenders as those issued by the government.—
In all other fotms of indebtedness, tbe faith or ability
of private parties, or stock companies, or separate com
munities, ouly, is pledged fsr payment, while the whole
property of the country Is held to secure the discbarge
of all the obligations of the United States.
While the government offers the in-ist liberal terms
for its loans, it believes that tbe very .strongest appeal
will be the loyalty aud patriotism of tbe people.
Duplicate certificates will be issued for all deposits.—
The party depositing must endorse upon the original
certificate the denomination of notes required, and
whether they are to be issued in blank or payable to or
der. When so endorsed it must bo left with tlio officor
receiving the deposit, to bo forwarded to tbo Treasury
Department.
Subscriptions will be rkckivsk by tlie Treasurer o
tbo United States, at Washington, the several Assistant
Treasurers und designated Depositaries, and by the
Flrnt ISntloniil llank of
Allegheny City, Pa. First, Second, and Third National
Ranks of Pittsburgh, Pa., and by all National Hanks
which aro depositaries of public money, and
ALL REBPECTABLE HANKS AND HANKERS

PROSPECTUS.
Till Niw York TnIHUKI. flint I/nurd April 10. lilt,
has to-day a larger aggregate circulation than any other
newspapor published in America, or (we neliave; In the
world. Compelled a year since to iucteaeo tbo uric* of
its several issues, or submit to the pecuniary ruin of its
proprietors from the very magnitude of its circulation, it
has probably since parted with some patrons to whotu ,
its remarkable cheapness was a controlling recommenda
tion; hot Others liave taken their place, and it baa now
more than Two Hundred Thousand subscriber* and regu
lar purchasers—an excess of at least Fifty Thousand over
those of any rival. And this unprecedented currency it
has achieved by very liberal expenditures in procuring
early and authentic intelligence, by the fearless exprea
sion of convictions, by the free employment of ability and
industry wherever it might contribute to excellence in
any department of our enterprise, and by unshrinking
fidelity to tbo dictate* of Justice, Humanity, and Fro*
dom.
Ry very large outlays for early and authentic advice#
by telegraph and otherwise from its own correspondent*
with the tarious armies of the Cnion, and by special ef
forts to furnish such information respecting Markets,
Crops, new discoveries or improvements in Agriculture,
Ac,, as must specially Interest farmers,we hare a*sidioesly
labored to make a Journal calculated lo meet the wants
and subserve the interests of the Producing Classes
That end we have at leant measurably attained; for no
other newspaper exists in America or Europe which ie
habitually read by nearly so many farmers and their fam
ilies as is Tiie Tribi hb loday. \\ e shall lalwrto Increase
both the number and tho satisfaction of this by far tbe
most numerous class of its patrons.
During the existence of the Whig party, this paper
supported fha' party, though always sympathising with
the more liberal, progressive, Anti-Slavery "wing" there
of. When new issues dissolved or transformed old organl
xatiotis through tho spontaneous uprising of the people
of the Free States against tile repudiation of the Missouri
lU'st/iction, The Tribune heartily participated in that
movement, and kn .wn as Republican. When the
long smoldering conspiracy to divide and destroy ««ir
country or reduce it entire to complete abasement to the
Slave Power culminated in overt trca* n and rebellion,
it naturally, necessarily regarded resistance to this con
spiracy as parainouut to all other considerations, and de
v.. ted "all its energies and efforts to the maintenance of our
Union. In every great controversy which has divided
ourcountrv, it lis* been found on that side which natu
rally commands the sympathy and support of the large
majority off school-houses and the decided minority of
grog-shops, and so doubtless will be to to the last.
Ardently desiring and strivim for tbe early and endu
ring adjustment Of our National distractions,The Tribune
b-Hves the time, the nature and the conditions of that ad
justment implicitly to th<»e lawfully In authority, con
fiding 1n their wisdom and patriotism, anxious to aid
th»-m to the utmost in their arduous responsibilities and
not to embarrass them even by possibility. Firmly be
lieving in the Aposb lie rule—"First pure lAen peacea
ble"—holding that the total ami final extirpation of Sla
ver* Is the true and only absolute cure for our National
ills—that any expedient that stops short of this can
have but a transient and illusory success—we yet pro
pound uo th«'<»ry of ••reconstruction" and indorse nona
that has been propoundad by another—neither Stun
ners, nor Whitings. r.or any of tho various Copperhead
devices Cor achieving "Peace'* by surrounding tho Re
public into the power of ita traitorous foes—but, exhor
ting, the American People to have ftiifh in their Govern
ment, to re-onforce their armies and replenish their treae
iiry, wo believe that, if they but do their duty, a benign
Providence will indue time bring this fearful struggle to
such a close as will best subserve the true greatness of
our countrv and the permanent well being of mankind.
We respectfulv solicit the subscriptions and active
exertions of our friends, and of all whose views and con
victions substantially with ours.
