Notes of all the denominations named will
be promptly furnished upon receipt ofsubscrip-
tions. ,a sao-4 rnpl .,sa4 SO
The Notes Of this Third Series are precisely
similar in form and privileges, to the Seven
Thirties already sold, except that the Govern
ment reserves to itself the option of payingin
terest in gold coin at per cent, instead of 2
3-1Oths in currency. Subscribers will deduct
the interest in currency up to,July 18th, at the
time when they subscribe.
The delivery of the notes of this third series
of the Seven hirties will commence on the LIST
of June, and viii be made promptly and con-
tinuously after that date. ~
The slight change made in the conditions of
shis THIRD SERIES affects only the matter of
interest. Thepayment in gold, if made, will
be equivalent to the currency interest of the
higher rate. So NN
The return to specie payments, in the event
of which only will the option to pay interest
in Gold be awaited of, would so reduce and
equalize prices that purchases made with six
per cent in gold would be fully equal to those
made with seven and three-tenths per cent.in
currency. This is -
The only Loan i'm Market
Now offered by the Government, and its supe-

Great Popular Loan Of the People.
Less than $3.50, 100000 of the Loan authori-
zed by the last Congress are now on the mar
ket. This amount, at the rate at which it is
being absorbed, will all be subscribed for with
in two months, when the notes will undoubted-
ly command premium, as has uniformly been
the case on closing the subscriptions to other
Loans.
In order that citizens of every town and sec-
ton of the country may be afforded facilities
for taking the loan, the National Banks, State
Banks, and Private Bankers throughout the
country have generally agreed to receive SUBJ

-.0:---
THE SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO, resem-
l. bles Peruvian Guamo in appearance, odor,
and composition. The value of all Guanos and
Super Phosphates of lime, of whatever name,
depends, as is well known, upon the per cent.
of ammonia, Soluble Phosphate, and Bone Phos-
plate of Lime they contain. This Guano diff
fers from Peruvian only in the fact that it con-
tains less ammonia, but this difference in Am
monia is more than made up by the fact that
it contains almost double as much Soluble, and
Bone Phosphate of Lime. This difference
makes it durable fertilizer, with all the activ-
ity of Peruvian Guano. Although the price of
this Guano is only onc-half the price of Peru
Wan, and is not higher than the Super Phos-
pilates of Lime, yet it contains, as is proven by
analysis and inspection, vastly more of ammo
naaG, soluble and Bone Phosphate. than is found
in the best of them. Hence its economy and
intrinsic value must render itan objectof great
interest to farmers generally. r. ~@.''
WE WISH. FARMERS
G9-TO TAKE ESPECIAL NOTICE,
That the conditions upon which we have the
agency of this Guano are that every cargo is
regularly inspected and analysed by DIR. LEI
BIG, whose authority in such matters is para
mount.
This arrangement affords us and consumers
a protection not had in the purchase of fertiliz-
ers generally. 1t must also be noticed that the
phosphates of this Guano, are not mineral, but

vantage. > 1I ~ 3'

ALL A JoKE.-On Friday afternoon q
Jolly crowd of men-all Democrats, ex
cept one individual, who was at one time
an independent" candidate for Council
from the Fourth Ward-met in one OF
the Market street saloons. and there
drank until they became quite merry
While most of the party were standing
on one side busily engaged in discussing
some point, one of the Democrats step
ped up to the independent" and placing
some money in his hands requested him
to pay for the drinks for the two as ne
(the independently was not acquainted
with the whole of the crowd, he could
treat a portion of it without being at all
discourteous to the remainder. The
glasses were ordered filed, and while
they we're being emptied the "independ-
ent" threw down the money which had
been given him to "stand treat" Upon
looking at the money, the saloon keeper
found it to be a Confederate one dollar
bill, and addressing the gentleman who
had given il to him, asked him if he had
changed his politics and gone over to Jeff
Davis. The independent" was surpris-
ell to have the question asked him,
and Indignantly replied that he was
as he had ever been, an unconsti-
tutional Union man. Being informed
what kind of money he had offered IN
payment for the drinks called for, the
Union" man put or his spectacles and
eyed the note we'll. Then ~denouncing
the crowd as a party of rebels, he left,
threatening revenge. On Saturday suit
was entered against the "disl"yalists'
for attempting to pass counterfeit money!
but the matter being fully explained the
Alderman dismissed the suit, remarking
that the whole transaction was only a
joke.

Office, the husband remarked that that
was the most hasty and unexpected
marriage he had ever heard or read of,

apprehend any difficulty in his present
undertaking.
