ment pay off these 7.3Oos
AnSrer. They are due in two years and a
half from the 18th February, 1865; viz ::
on the 18th Of August, 1867,
5th Question, Must | receive back my
money so soon as 1867 4?

at par, Of the famous and popular $50 Gold
Bearing per cent Loan,
9Th Question. How much do you consider
this privilege Of conversion, into $50 Loan
! to be worth

lst of November, are to-day worth 9 per
cent, premium. If they are worth no more
at the end of the two years and half when
you have right TO them, than they nolo are
| this premium added to the interest you re-
ceive, will give you at least 10 per cent per

AnSUer. 1t eanDoa be taxed by States,
! Counties, or Cities, and this adds from one

come OF the holder, according to the rate of
stocks, except those of the United States,
and a II mortgages, &c are taxed, not only by
the Government. but by States, Counties and
| Cities.
Sh question: How does the Government
raise the money to pay the interest, and is it

ports, fully three hundred millions each year.
| This is nearly three times as much as is
needed to pay the interest on all the debts,
! and as soon as the war is ended, the amount
not needed to pay the interest will be used
in paying off the debt. OW Government

do so again. The interest is sure to be paid
promptly, and the debt itself is the very SAT.
est investment in the word. 1t is as safe as
a mortgage on a good farm, and pays a better
| interest. 1t is. in fact First Mortgage on
| all lands, all incomes, all railroad and canal
bonds, and bank or other stocks, mortgages,
&c.
Nothing can be safer, for we are all bound
for il, 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 piled and locked up, or pur-
chase mortgages or railroad stocks and bonds

dnsWer. In less than three months they

Seven Thir'Ies, the first Twenty Year Loan,
and the Five-Twenties.
The above question and answers, it is be-
leved. wi j give full information to ALL II
not, the Geueral Subscription Agent or any
of the Banks or Bankers employed to sell
the Loan, will be glad to answer all questions,
! and to furnish the Seven Thirties in small
