The Third Avenue Railroad is about TO make
another concession to the public indignation at
the illegal rise in fares by selling tickets at the
downtown station and receiving the tickets Of
other roads But the concession the public ask,
and they will be satisfied with nothing less, is
that the roads shall collect the 81 per cent
revenue tax, and nothing more. They have
no right to do more than this, and demand for
six cents from conductor, under the positive
or implied threat of expulsion fromthe cars, is as
much an act Of violence rs if a passer-by should
demand q dollar from another under threat
of putting him in the gutter lift not complied
with. Let the railroads establish rule that
on certain day of every month, or on a certain
month in the year, they will collect just so much
as will cover the tax, and the public will
cheerfully acquiesce in it, There is no other
Just method, and the people will not assent to
swell the enormous profits of these roads on
q false pretense. The increase in price falls
most heavily on those least able to bear 1.-THE
poor-many Of whom are not able to buy tick
cts in quantities. But whether they are able or
not, or whether others, who ore able, choose TO
submit to the Inconvenience Of always pro-
yiding themselves with tickets, is not the
question. The advance Of one cent to any class
is simply illegal, and the public will not be
pacfied till il is receded from.

GOV. sEYMOUB's METHOD OF DIS.
TRIBUTING UNION VOTES.

The sixth and last resolution in tho Chicago
Platform that 1.-the sympathy Of the Democratic
Party is heartily and earnestly extended "a
the Soldiery Of our army, actually means some
thing. Gov. SEYMOUR has found it out, and,
for about month, has been illustrating il, with
all that gentlemanly equity and patrcian jus.
tice which have 50 consistently distinguished
his political life. Nnc-tenths Of tho soldiers in
the armies want 10 vote the LINCoLN-JOHNsos
Union ticket. Coy. SEYMOUR, tho agent Of his
party, sympathizes with this want by sending
MCCLELLAN ballots cn'y through the armies,
inclosed in ciculars directed to New.Yolk regi.
ments, signed with his own hand and sealed
with his private Executive seal. The circular
before Ia, dated September 80, contains this
avowal:
"I SEND YOU set Of ballot, prepared by the friend.
Of Gen MCCLELLAN. and have rqnsgtd ~, Secrnafy Of
a,. 10 ooard TO you set prepared by tho friends VI
Mr.. LINCOLN
The eiiec:..;veness Of bis personal attention to
seeing that "thc svmpotAy of the Democratic

Richmond. IND In full view OF the responsibility oil
such declaration say 10 You all, such an order can
only be prompted by cowardico or treason"
Said it on the battlefield, at the moment;
said it solely as soldier said it when he felt in
his soul that his life had been risked, and thou
sands of lives had been sacrificed for nothing,
because of that fatal order Of retreat. Remem-

These Bonds issued under the Act of on gress
ofharch Sth. 1884, which provides thst all Bonds is
sued under this Act SHALL BE RBDEEnED IN
COIN, at the pleasure Of the Governmea at at any
period not less shnn fAas forty years from
their date, and until their redemption FIVE PER
CENT. INTEREST WILL BE PAID IN OOIN,
on Bonds Of not enc l. inbred dollars an nuslly
and on all other Bonds semi annually The in.
terest is payable on the Hrst days Of March and
September in each year.
As these Bonds, by Act of Congress are
EXEMPT FROM MUNICIPAL OR STATE
TAXATION,
their value is increased from one - three per
cent. per annum, according to the rate Of tar
ievies In various parts of the country.
At the present rate of premium Oh gold they pay
OVER EIGHT PER CENT. INTEREST
in currency, and of equal convenience ss q per-
manent or temporary investment
1t is believed that no securities offer so great
inducements to lenders as the various descrip
t,ns of Q. 6. Bonds In all other forms of in
debtedness, the faith ability of private parties
or stock companies or separate communities only
Is pledged for payment, while for the debts of the
United states the whole property of the country
is holden to secure the payment Of both principal
and interest in coiu.
These Bonds may be subscribed for in sums from
$50 up to any ma gnitude, on the same terms, and
are thus made equally available to the smallest
lender and the largest capitalist. They can be
C. rted into money at any moment and the
holder will have the benefit of the interest.
The Funded debt of the United States on
which interest is payable in gold the Sd day of
March. 1854. was 1858 s65oOO. The interest this
debt for the coming fiscal year will be S45.eH l2s.
while the customs revenue in gold for the current
fiscal year, ending June 3Oth 1854. has been SO far
at the-rate of over 500 GEO 900 per annum.
1t will be seen that even the present gold reve-
nues of the Government are largely in excess of
the wants of the Treasury for the payment Of gold
interest, while the recent increase of the tariff
will doubtless raise the annual receipts from Gus
toms on the same amount Of importations, to
sl5O,COO 900 per snnum.
The authorized amour at of this loan is 5000 900 900
Instructions to the National Banks acting 40
loan agents were not issued until March rs. but
the amount or Bonds reported sold at the T. s.
Treasury up to May 18th was
4s,964 900.
Subscriptions will be received by the Treasurer
Of the United States at Washn ston. and the Assist
phia, and by the
FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF WASHINGTON
FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF BALTIMORE.
and by all National Banks which are depositaries
of public money, and all respectable banks and
bankers throughout the country (acting as agents
of the National Depository Banks) will furnish
further Information on application, and afford
