March 9Th 1864, which provides that all Bonds issued

scrp,ons to these Bonds received in United
States notes of National Banks They TO BE RE.
DEEMED IN COIN, at the pleasure of the Government
nt any period not tsS TIA more than forty years

parts of the country.

One Eight Per Cent Interest

1t is believed that no securities offer great induce
mcnts lenders tho various descriptions Of u. f.
Bonds. In all other ofps ofndebtedncss, the faith
ability Of private parties or stock companies or sepa
rate communities only is pledged for payInect while
for hedebs ofthc United States the whole property Of
the country is holden to the payment of both
principa and interest in coin.
These Bonds may he subscribed for in sums from
$50 up to any magnitude on the same terms, md 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 ofthe interest.
1t may be useful state this connection that the
total Funded Debt ofthe United States on which inter-
est payable in gold the Sd day March, 1864, was
S7GS 965 00U The interest this debt for the coming
fiscal year will be Si5 037, ,la6, while the customs
in gold for the cnrren sca year. ending June 3Oth
1861 bean far at the rate of 100000 900 per
annum.
1t will be that the present gold revenues Of
the Government largely in excess of the wants of the
Treasurcy for the yaynent Of gold interest, while he
increase of the tariff will doubtless raise the
annual receipts from customs on tho same amount Of
importations, TO $3.50, 900 per annum.
Instructions to the National Banks acting loan
agents were OF issued frOmthe United State Treasuy
until March &c, but the first three weeks Of April the
riptons averaged more than TEN MILLIONS A
WEEK.
