tion which adds from one to thr ,e per cent. per
annum to their value according to the rate levied

The Notes of this third series are precisely sim.
lar in form and privileges to the Seven. Thrties
already sold. except that the Government reserves
to itself the option of paying interest in gold coin
at per cent, instead of 3-IOths in currency
Subscribers viii deduct the interest in currency
up to July l5th at the time they subscribe.
The delivery of the notes of this third series of
the Seven thirties will commence on the LIST of

the conditions of this Third Series affects only the

will be equivalent to the currency interest of the

The return to specie payments, in the event of
which only will the option to pay interest in Gold
be availed of. would so reduce and equalize pri-
ces that purchases made with six per cent in gold
would be fully equal to those made with seven and
ree-tenths per cent in currency. This is
