% QuEs. When and how can they be OBJ
/ tained?
ANS. They are for sale, at par, and sceru-
! ed interest, by all Sub-Treasuries National
and other Banks, and all Bankers and BrOk-
ers.
Sd. QUEs. When is the interest payable
and how can it be colleeted7

and will be cashed by any Sub-Treasurer I.
S. Depository, National or other Bank or

4TH CUES. When must the Government pay
off these 1905?
ANS. They are due in two years and half
from the 18th of February, 1861 on the 10th
of August, 1867?
5TH QUEs. Must receive back my money
so soon as 1867?
ANS. No! not unless you yourself prefer
to do sO-the Law gives you the right to de-
mand from the Government, at that time, eth
er your money or an equal amOut at par, of
the famous and popular $40 Gold Bearing
! per cent, Loan.
9TH QUEs. How much do you consider this
privilege of conversion, into $40 Loan to be
worth?
Ans. 5.2Os bearing Gold Interest from 1st
Of November are to-day worth per cent,
premium. If they are worth no more at the
end of the two years and a half when you
have right to them, than they now are, this
premium added to the interest you receive,
will give you at least 10 per cent, per annum
for your money-but the opinion is that they
viii be worth more than 9 per cent, premium
at that time.
7Tn QUEs What other advantage is there
in investing in the 7.20 Loan?
ANS. 1t cannot be taxed by States, Coun-
ties, or Cities, and this adds from one to three
per cent, per annum to the net income Of the
holder, according to the rate of taxation IN
various localities All bonds and stocks, ex-
capt those of the United States, and all mort
cages, &c, are taxed, not only by the Govern
ment but by States, Counties, and Cities.
8TH CUES. How does the Government raise
the money to pay the interest, and is it safe
and sure?
Ans The Government collects, by taxes,
internal revenue, and duties on imports, full
ly three hundred millions each year. This is
nearly three times as much as is needed to
pay the interest on all the debt, and as soon
as the war is ended, the amount not needed
to pay the interest viii be used in paying off
the debt Our Government has twice paid off
all its 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 a mortgage on
good farm, and pays a better interest. 1t is,
in fact, First Mortgage on all lands all in
comes, all railroad and canal bonds, and bank
or other stocks, mortgages SC.
Nothing can be safer, for we are all bound
for it, and all that we have is firmly held for
the payment of principal and interest. How
foolish those people are, who keep their gold
and greenbacks idle and locked up, or pur-
chase mortgages or railroad stocks and bonds,
which pay only or per cent, interest, when
these Seven-Thirtics pay counting the pre-
MUM on Five-Twenties,) over ten per cent,
and are so much safer and surer.
9TH QUEs. How many Seven-Thirties are
there, and how much remains unsOld?
Ans. There are only about three hundred
and twenty-five millions authorized by law,
and only about one hundred and ninety mil
lions remain uEsOld.
10Th CUES. How long will it take you to
sell the balance?
Ans There are about 800 National Banks
| all engaged in selling them; also large
number of the old banks, and at least three
| thousand private bankers and brokers, and
| special agents will be engaged in all parts of
the country in disposing Of them to the peO-
pie.
/ 11TH QuEs. How long will it take to sell
the whole?
ANS. In less than three months they will
be all sold, and will no doubt then sell at a
premium, as was the case with the old Seven
Thirtics, the first Twenty-Y car Loan, and the
Five-Twenties.

lieved, will give full Information to all. If
