 SPECIAL ADVANTAGES
 OF THIS LOAN.
 IT IS NATIONAL SAVINGS BANK, offering higher rate of interest than any other, and ths best security. Any savings bank which pays its depositors in U. s. Notes, considers that it is paying in the best circulating medi- dium of the country, and it cannot pay in any thing better, for it's own assets are ei ther in government securities, or in notes or bonds payable in government paper.
 It is equally convenient as 8 temporary or permanent investment. The notes can always be sold for within fraction of their face and interest, and gre the best securi ty with banks as collatersls for discounts. Convertabe into c 6 per cent. 5-20 Gold Bond.
 In addition to the very liberal interest on the notes for three years, this privilege of con- version is now worth about three per cent. per annum, for the current rate for 5-2O Bonds is not less than 9per cent. premium, and before the war the premium on six per cent. U. s. stocks wasover twenty per cent. It will be seen that the actual profit on this loan, at the present market rate, is not less than ten per cent per annum.
 It's Exemption from State or Muntcipal Iara-
 ton.
 But aside from all the advantages we have a special act of Congress ezempts dH bonds and Treasury notes from local taza- ton. On the average, this exemption is worth about two per cent. per annam, according to the rates of taxation in various parts of the country.
 It is believed that no securities offer so great inducements to lenders as those issued by the government. In all other forms of in- lebtsdness, the faith or ability of private par ties, or stock companies or separate commu- mites, only is pledged fol payment, while the whole property of the oountr is held to secure | he discharge of all the obligations of the Uni l ed States.
 While the government offers the most liberal ferms for its loans, it believes that the very appeal will be to the loyalty and patriotism of the people.
 Duplicate certificates will be issued for all deposits. The party depositing must endorse upon the original certificate the denomination of notes required, and whether they are to be issued in blank or payable to order. When 50 endorsed it must be left with the officer reciv- ing the deposit, to be forwarded to the Treas ury department.
 SUBSCRIPTIONS WILL BE RECEIVED by the Treasurer of the United States, at Washington, the several Assistant Treasurers and designa- ted Depositaries, and by the
