Answer. 1t bears interest, in currency, ai
therate Of seven dollars and thirty cents
each year on every Hundred dollars
I'd. Ques. When and now can they be OBJ
tained7
Ans. Hhey are for sale at par. at the
FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF GALL.
POLLS.
3D. Ques. When is the interest payable, and
how can it be collected
Ans. On the 18th Of June and 18th Of De
eember of each year, and can be collected
through the FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF
GALLlPOLIS-
4th. Ques. When must the Government pay
off these 7-30s?
Ans. Three years from 18th of June, 1865.
5th. Ques. Must receive back my money as
soon as 1865?
Ans. No, not unless you prefer TO do So
the law gives you the right to demand from
the Government, at that time, either your
money, or an equal amount at par in 500
Gold bearing 6 per cent loan.
9th. Ques. III should need my money, be.
fore 1867, to invest in anything else, how
could l get iti
Ans, These bonds will always be saleabLs,
as the interest is paid every six months and
they cannot be taxed by States, Counties or
Towns, and this saves yoj from two to FIVE
per cent on your income,
7th. How does the Government raise the
money to pay the interest," End is it safe and
surei
Ans. The Government collects, by taxes,
internal revenue, and duties on imports, fully
three hundred millions each year This is
paarlr tbY.aa f,tnas r,uah - al 60 ,.x-
the interest on all the debt, and as soon as
the.waf Is ended, the amount not needed 10
pay the interest will be used id paying off
the debt. Our Government has paid off all her
debt, and can easily do SO again. The interest
is sure to be paid promptly, and the debt
itself is the very safest investment in the
world. 1t is as safe as mortgage on good
farm, and pays better interest. 1t is, in
fact, a First Mortgage on all lands, all incomes,
all railroad and canal bonds, and bank or
other stocks, mortgages de-, d.
Nothing can be safer, for we are all bound
for it, and all that We have is held and firmly
bound for the payment Of principal and in
terest. How foolish those people are, who
keep idle, and locked up, their gold and
greenbaeks, or purchase mortgages or railroad
stocks and bonds, which pay only or per
cent. interest, when these Seven Thirties pay
Counting the premium on Five-Twenties,)
over ten per cent, and are 40 much safer and
surer.
