U s $50 OLoan.

The Secretary Of the Treasury gives Notice
that subscriptions will be received for Coupon
Treasury Notes, payable three years from
Aug. 18th, 1854, with semi-annual interest
at the rate of seven and three-tenths per
cent. per annum-principal and interest both
to be paid in lawful money.
These notes will be convertible at the op-
ton Of the holder at maturity, into per cent.
gold bearing bonds, payable net less than five
nor more than twenty years from their date, as
the Government may elect. They will be
Issued in denominations of $5e, $1o0, $500.
81 goo and $4,000, and all subscriptions must
be for fifty dollars or some multiple Of fifty
dollars.
The notes will be transmitted to the owners
free of transportation charges as soon after
the receipt of the original Certificates of D.,
posit as they can be prepared.
As the notes draw interest from Angus
Is, persons making deposits subsequent tt
that date must pay the interest accrued fren
date of note to date of deposit.
Parties depesiting twenty five thousane
dollars and upwards for these notes at an,
one time will be allowed a commission of on,
per cent, which will be raid by the Treasur,
Department upon the receipt of bill for tn,
amount certified to by the officer with whom
the deposit was made. No deductions fo.
commissions must be made from the deposit
Special Advantages of this
Loan,
1t is National Savings Bank, Offering a
higher rate of interest than any other, anc
the best security. Any savings bank which
apys its deposits in U. S. Notes, considers
that it is paying in the best circulating medi-
um of the country, and it CANNOT pay in any
thing better, for its own assets are either in
government security or in notes or bonds
payable in government paper.
1t is equally convenient as temporary OIL
permanent investment. The notes can al
ways be sold for within fraction of theil
face and accumulated interest, and are the
best security with banks as cellaterals fol
discounts.

In addition to the very liberal interest on
the netes for three years, this privilege of
conversion is new worth abeut three per cent.
per annum, fer the current rate for $40 Bonds
is not less than NINE PER CENT. PREMivM, and
before the war the premium on six per cent.
U. 8. stocks was over twenty per cent. 1t
will be seen that the actual profit on this loan
at the present market rate, is not less than
ten per cent. per annum.
ITS EXEMPTION FROM STATE OR
MUNICIPAL TAXATION.
But aside from all the advantages we have
enumerated, a special Act of Congress exempts
all bonds and Treasury notes from local taxa
tion. On the average, this exemption is worth
about two per cent. per annum, according to
the rate Of taxation in varicns parts Of the
country.
1t is believed that no securities offer SO
great inducements to lenders as those issued
by the government. In all other forms of

the whole property of the country is held to
secure the discharge of all the obligations of
the United States.
While the government offers the most lib
eral terms for its loans, it believes that the
very strongest 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 denomina-
tion of notes required and whether they are to
be issued in blank or payable to order.
When SO endorsed it must be left with the
officer resolving the deposit, to be forw arded to
the Treasury Department.

FACTS FOR THE PEOPLE,

1t is well established fact that no prepa-
ratioRThas ever been placed before the public.
that, as remedial agent for the safe and
speedy cure of Coughs, Colds, Group, Influenza
Hoarseness, Tickling in the Throat. Soreness
of the-Chest and Lungs. and the relief of Con-
sumptiye Cough, is equal to Co.'s CoueH BAL
SAM. Although not known in, the Western
States until the fall of 1858, over 300 900
bottles of it were sold and used by the people;
its immense popularity being the result of its
undoubted merit The prerrietors, Messrs.
g. g, CLARK 4 Co., of New Haven, Ct. who
are among the most reliable Of the Eastern
Drug Houses, have offered to any man who
would produce an Article that would cure apy
Lung and Throat affections as quick AZ Goes
Congh Balsana, reward of $loO, and are
without any taker, though the offer has been
made public over two years. The bottle com
pares favorably in size with any of the 65
cent preparations, and its strength is second
to none, making it not only the best, but the
cheapest remedy in the world. We have the
united testimony of such houses as Lord &
Smith; Fuller, Finch & Fuller; Burnham &
Van Setback; J. II. Reed & Co.. and Il. Sco-
will, all heavy druggists in the city of Chicago.
together with the assurance of wholesale and
retail druggists in all points OF the Northwest.
that they are selling more of this preparation.
and that it gives greater satisfaction than
any other Cough Balsam now extant No
lam ,iy should be without ik it is within the
reach OF all, the price being only 40 cents. In
u Time OF heaith, provide for disease.
