THE FOUR PER CENT. BoNDS.-It is thought by
that the four per cent bonds to be issued for
the present currency be used in business trans
actions and will be passed from hand to hand
Treasury note is used But this is mistake
The law authorizing the issue of these per cent
bonds says: "the holders of all such Treasury
notes shall be allowed to fund the in Registered
Bonds, payable 30 years after their date bearing in
terest at the rate of per cent per annum payable
the first day Of January and July of each year"
A registered bond cannot be sold or transferred
without first having the entries changed at the
Treasury Department, which operation would cost
much time and trouble that but few transactions
of that kind will be made. And it is well that it is
so, for if the bonds could be used just Treasury
note is now used, there would be little diminu-
ton of the circulating medium. and the country
would be again cursed with too much currency.
The bonds can be used in payment of taxes due the
Confederate Government, and they will then be i'm
mediately cancelled, but they cannot be passed
from hand to hand without changing the entries on
the Registers books. This is opinion of the
matter, and it is sustained by the experience of
others who have dealt in registered bonds.
But some one may conclude that if this is the
case he will not fund his money, because he wants
to trade it use it in purchasing such articles
as he may need. Such persons will find, after the
first of April, that they made great mistake in not
funding for they will find, think, that all notes
of the present issue above five dollars will to
be current-no will take them because they
subject to a discount of one third; and if they
kept hand till the 1st January, 1865, they are
taxed one hundred per cent. and the privilege of
funding lost. And those who keep their notes for
the purpose of exchanging them after the 1st Of
April for the issue at the rate of three dollars
for two, will find it inconvenient to effect the ex-
change as speedily as they expect may desire.
So, taking everything into consideration, do
not believe that any do better than exchange
his notes for per cent bonds before the first day of
April. These bonds not subject to a tax for the
year 1864.
