The Secretary of the Ticasiny gives notice
that subscriptions will be received for Coupon
Treasury Notes, payable three years f loin
August 15th, ISG4 with semiannual interest
at the rate of seven and three-tenths par-cent.
per annum,—principal and interest both to be
paid in lawful in cney.
These notes will be convertible at the option
of the holder at maturny, into six per cent.
gold bearing bends, payable hot less than five
nor more than twenty years frorii their date,
as the Government may elect. They will be
issued in denornissvtions of $5O, , $lOO, $5OO,
$l.OOO and $5,000, and all siibscriptions must
lie for fifty dollars or some multiple of fifty
dollars.
The notes will be transmitted to the owners
flee of transportation charges as soon after
the receipt of the original Certificates of De
posit as they can be prepared
As the notes draw interest from August 15,
persons making deposits subsequent to that
date must pay the interest accrued from date
of note to date of deposit.
Parties depositing twenty-five thousand dol
lars and upwards for these notes at any one
time will be allowed a commission of one
quarter of one per cent, which will be paid
by the Treasury Department upon the receipt
of a bill for the amount, certified to by the
officer with whom the deposit was made. No
deductions for commissions must oe made
from the deposits.
Special Advantages of this Loan.
It is a National Savings Bank, offering a
higher rate of interest than any other, and the
best security. Any savings bank which pays
its depositors in U. S. Notes, considers that it
is payinn best circulating medium of the
country, and it cannot pay in anything better,
for its own assets are either in government se
curities or in notes or bonds payable in govern.
ment paper.
It is equally convenient as a temporary or
permanent investment. The notes can always
be sold for within a fraction of their face and
accumulated interest, and are the best security
with banks as colaterals for discounts. .
Convertable into a Six,,per cent, 5-20 Gold
Botid."
In addition to the very liberal interest on the
notes for three years, this privilege of convers
ion is now worth, about 3 per cent. per an
num, for the eurrentrate for 5-20 Bouds is not
lass than 9 per cent. premium, and before the
war the premium on 6 per cent. U. S. Stocks
was over 20 per cent. It will be seen that the
actual profit on this loan, at the present mar
ket rate, is.not less than ten per cent. per an
num. Its exemption
Front State or Municipal Taxation.
But aside from all the advantages we have
enumerated, a special Act of Congress exempts
all Bands and Treasury Notes from local tax
ation. On the average, this exemption is
worth about two per cent, per annum, accord
ing to the rate of taxation in various parts of
the country.
It is believed that no securities offer sogreat
inducements to lenders as those issued by the
government. In all other forms of inoebted
nes.% the faith or ability of private parties, or
stock companies, or seperate communities, on
ly, is pledged for payment, while the whole
property of the country is held to secure the
discharge of all the obligations of the United
States.
While the government offers the most liber
al terms fur its loans, it believes that the very
strongest appeal will be to the loyalty; and
patriotism of the people.
Duplicate certificates will be issued for all
deposits. The party depositing must endorse
upon the ortgina/ certificate the denomination
of notes required, and whether they are to be
issued in blank or payable to order. When
to endorsed it must be left , with the officer're
ceiving the deposit, to be forwarded to the.
Treasury Department.
Su'pseriptions will be received by the Trees.
urer of the United Slates, at Washington, the
several Assistant Treasurers and designated
Depositaries, and by the
First National Bank at Marietta,
and by all National Banks which are deposi
taries of public money, and all respectable

throughout the country will give further infor

its flight for the new year, over the wrecks of

its eye fixed upon the sun, beneath which it
owns no rivalry.
The war, which has toppled down whatever
is shallow and baseless, has written no wrin

features for the issue of 1865 shake the pillars
of whatever has heretofore been deemed im

Atlantic render us tribute. We shall continue
the.thrilling romances of Miss M. E. Bradon,
necromancer of the strong dark 'passions, to
whom we pay more money annually than the

I(3 COUNTERFEITS. 4:4
As Kunkel's Bitter Wine of Iron is the only
sure and effectual remedy in the known world
for the permanent cure of Dyspepsia and De
bility, and as there are a number of imilatibns
offerer' to the public, we v‘ould caution the
community to purchase none but the genuine
article, manufactured by S. A NUN3CLE &
Duo., and has their stamp on the top of the
cork of every.:.bottle. The very fact that others
are attempting to imitate this valuable reme
dy, proves its worth and speaks volumes in
its favor.
The Bitter Wine of Iron is put up in 75 cent
and $1 00 bottles, and sold by all ics iectstde
druggists throughout the country. Be partic
ular that every bottle bears the fec simile of
the proprietor's signature. •
This Wine includes the most agreeable and
efficient Salt of Iron we possess ; Citrate of
MagneOc Ovide combined, with the most en
ergetic of vegetable tonics, Yellow Peruvian
bark. The effect in many cases of debility,
loss of appetite, and general prostration, of
an efficient Salt of Iron, combined with our
valuable Nerve Tonic, is most happy. It
augments the appetite, raises the pulse, taken
off muscular flabbiness, removes the pallor of
debility, and gives a timid vigor to the count'
teuance.
