etts. The Secretary Of the Treasury has
no power to accept teu,efs of ossey sith-
out interest, or for saeh long pssieA, sDd
for this reason a Tr0asnRs Note hsssins
interest at the fate OF $40 yer cent,
payable semi. snBs.lly. 7ill 20 issssd to
him. Doubtless there ere tbeaasnis Of
'pstriotic sboemskefs" ssi other me-
cbaDics, men Of every ossspstioss. who
will invest in q similar RsBncF. No ga
wings institution pays so high sa interest.
Besides, a Treasury Note sill slssys COM
mand, at once, the full amount OF its face,
with Whatever interest may have accrued,
and within few months will, without
doubt, bear premium. They can be
held as a perm sneut investment antil ms
turity-tbree years-and the interest for
the whole period may be drawn at that
time, or at the option of the holder the
uotes may be converted, il amounting to
$500 in the aggregate, into bonds of 20
years, bearing interest at six per cent.
The issue OF the demand notes S5's,
and Sl0'sis being pushed forward as rap
idly as possible About $3.50, 600 per

ployed in signing aud cosntersig ming for
the Register and Treasurer these notes.
Each one Of these makes on an average
5000 signates each day. At this rate of
signature each clerk receives eonpeu-
sstion of $1,000 per anDum. There are
many, however, who make 900 or 1000
more than the average number of sigma
lures per day, and these receive pay pro
rata. For the signature of the whole is
sue of $50 ,O00,0 Of demand notes, the
labor of one man for seven years would
be required.
