| These Bonds are issued under the Act of
Congress of March Sth 1864, which provides
that all Bonds issued under this Act shall be
EXEMPT FROM TAXATION by or under
any state or municipal authority. Subscrip-
tions to these Bonds are received in United
States notes or notes of National Banks.
They are TO BE DEEMED IN COIN, al
the pleasure Of the Government, at any period
NOT LESS THAN TEN NOR MORE THAN FORTY
YEARS from their date, and until their re
demption FIVE PER CENT. INTERE ST
WILL BE PAID IN COIN, on Bonds of not
over one hun lred dollars annually and on all
other Bonds scmi.annually. The interest is
payable on the first days of March and Sep
temher in each year.
Subscribers will receive either Registered
or Coupon Bonds as they may prefer. Regis
tered Bonds are recorded on the books Of the
U. S Treasurer, and can be transferred only
on the owners order. Coupon Bonds are
payable to bearer, and are more convenient
for commercial uses.
Subscribers to this loan will have the option
of having their Bonds draw interest from
March 1st, by paying the accrued interest in
COIN Tor in United States notes, or the notes
of Notonal Banks, adding fifty per per cent.
for premium or receive them drawing in
terest from the date of subscription and de-
post. As these Bonds are .. ....
Exempt from Municipal or State Tax
alton,
their value is increased from one to three per
cent per annum, according to the rate of tax
leves in various parts of the country.
At the present rate of premium on gold
they pay
OVER EIGHT PER CENT 1NTERES r
in currency, and are of equal convenience as
permanent or temporary investment.
1t is believed that no securities offer so
great inducements to lenders as the various
descriptions of U. S. Bonds. In all other
forms of indebtness the faith or ability CT
private parties or stock companies or separate
communities only is pied ged 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 in
terest in coin.
These Bonds may be subscribed for in sums
from $50 up to any magnitude, 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 momefr, and the holder will have the
benefit of the interest.
1t may be useful to state in this connection
that the total Funded Debt of the United
States on which interest is payable in gold,
on the Sd of March, 1864, was $76s, ,os6000.
The interest on this debt for che coming fiscal
year will be $45,937, 1926, while the Gus oms
revenue in gold for the current fiscal year,
ending Juno 30th, 1864, has been so far at the
rate of over SlO0,o0O,000 per annum
1t will be seen that even the present gold
revenues 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 che
annual receipts from customs on the same
amo mount of importations to $150Oo0,o00 per
annum.
instructions to the National Banks acting
rs loan agents were not issued from the Uni
ted States Treasury until March 26, but in
the first three weeks of April the subscrip-
tons averaged more than TEN MILLIONS A
WEEK.
