u. .. 1910 BONDS.

These Bonds are issued under the Act of Jon sres
ofMareh sth 1854 which provides that all Bends Is
sued under this Act SHALL BE REDEEMD IN
COIN, at the pleasure Of the Government, at an!
period not less than ten tas forty years from
their date and until their redemption Five PEE
CENT. INTEREST WILL BE PAID IN COIN
on Bonds of not over enc hundred olIars an uuaIy
and on all other Bonds semi annually. The in
September in each year.
As these Bonds BY Act of Congress; are
EXEMPT FROM MUNICIPAL Ok STATE
TAXATION,
their value is increased from one to three PEI
cent. per annum, according to the rate of tax
levies in various parts of the country.
At the present rate of premium on gold they pay
OVER EIGHT PER CENT. INTEREST
in currency, and of equal convenience as a per-
manent or temporary investment.
It is believed that no securities offer great
inducements to lenders as the various descrip-
tons of o. s. Bonds. In all other forms of in
debtedness, the faith or ability of private parties
or stock companies separate communities only
is pledged for payment while for the debts of the
United States the whole property of the country
is holden to secure the payment of both principal
and interest in cou.
These Bonds may be subscribed for in SKINS from
$50 up to any ma gnitude, on the Same terms, and
are thus made equally available to the smallest
lender and the largest capitalist. They can be
converted into money at any moment, and the
holder will have the benefit of the interest.
The Funded Debt of the United States on
which interest is payable in gold, on the Sd day OF
March. 1864, was S768 $685. 600 The interest this
debt for the coming fiscal year will be S45,9a l9s,
while the customs revenue in gold for the current
fiscal year, ending June Goth. 1884, has been SO far
at the rate of over 500 600 900 per annum.
1t will be seen that even the present gold reve-
nues of the Government are largely in excess of
the wants of the Treasury for the payment of gold
interest, while the recent increase of the tariff
will doubtless raise the annual receipts from GUS
toms on the same amount of importations, to
$50 900 per annum.
The authorized amount of this loan 1900 900 900
Instructions to the National Banks acting as
loan agents were not issued until March &c, but
the amount of Bonds reported sold at the T. S.
Treasury up to May 14th was
S4S,964, 900.
Subscriptions will be received by the Treasure,
Of the United States at Washin .ton and the Assist
AMI TreaswerS at New York, Boston and Philadel.
