inducements to lenders as the various descriptions
ness, the faith or ability ofprivate parties or stock
companies or separate communities only is pleGg-
cd for payment, while for the debts of the United
States the whole property of the country holden
to secure the payment of both principal and in
terestin 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 small
est lender and the largest capitalist. They can
be converted into money at any moment, and the
holder will have the benefit of the interest
1t may be useful to state in this conn" on that
the total Funded Debt of the United states on
which interest is payable in gold on the Sd day
of March, 1864. was s76s $685. 200. The interest
on this debt for the coming fiscal year will be
$l5, 1897 .l26, while the customs revenue in gold
for the current fiscal year ending June 80, 1864,
has been so far at the rate of over 500, 900 900
per annum.
1t will be seen that even the present gold revc-
nues of the Gov eminent are largely in excess of
the wants Of the Treasurer for the payment of
gold interest, while the recent increase of the tar
if will doubtless raise the annual receipts from
customs on the same amount of importatioGs, to
$3.50, 600 900 per annum.

An influential population waited upon
Lord Palmerston on the 18th inst. to urge
British mediation in America. Palmcrs-
ton informed them that the present was
not favorable time for such a procedure,
but that, when an opportunity should arise
ne would gladly avail himself of it. Mr..
Mason has had an unofficial Interview with
Palmerston, which Is said to have been
satisfactory to all parties
The Albany New York; Atlas and
Argus thinks there is somewhat less conf :
dcnce than formerly il Gen. Grant. We
agree with it In opinion. 1t results from
the fact that he has sacrificed one humid
red thousand men in order to get into his
present position, which the rebels would
have allowed him to take without losing a
man. We suppose that is splendid mil
tary strategy, but the common peop lie can
not comprehend it, and hence the loss in
confidence Enquirer.

A REBEL Doc CAPrURED.-An officer
who came up from City Point to-day had
with him an ugly looking specimen of the
genus canine, which he guarded very
carefully. The dog, it appears, was a
great pet with both our own and the reb-

The dog had beeu trained to carry messan-
ges between the pickets. A rebel paper
would be placed in his mouth and he
would scamper to the Union lines, deliv-
er up the paper and return with north
