rs EXEMPTION FROM STATE OR
MUNICIPAL TAXATION.

MUNICIPAL TAXATION.
But aside from all the advantages we have
enumerated, a SPECIAL Act of Congress exempts
all bonds and Treasury notes from local taxa
tion. On the average, this exemption is worth
about tive per cent. per annum, according to
country.
It is believed that no securities offer so
great inducements to lenders as those issued
by the government. In all other forms Of
Indebtedness, the faith or ability of private
parties, or stock companies, or separate COM
munities, only, 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 lib
eral terms for its loans, it believes that the
very strongest appeal will be to the loyalty
and patriotism of the people.
Duplicate certificates will be issued tor all
deposits. the party depositing must endorse
upon the ORIGINAL certificate the denomina-
ton of notes required and whether they are to
be issued in blank or payable to order.
When so endorsed it must be left with the
officer receiving the deposit, to be forwarded to
the Treasury Department.
SUBSCRIPTIONS WILL BE RECEIVED by the
Treasurer OF the United States, at Washing
ton, the several Assistant Treasurers and de-
signated Depositaries, and by the
FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF
BRIDGEPORT, ONO.
And by all National Banks which are deposit
aries of public money, and
ALL RESPECTABLE BANKS AND BANKERS
throughout the country will give further in
formation and
AFFORD EVERY FACILITY TO sUBscRI-
