securities that has been hitherto untouched,
ana will break down the barrier now eI-
isting between the commercial eommuni-
ties OF the Atlantic and Pacific States,
created by the dlsslmllarity Of their cir
culatlng medium, California and the other
Pacific States recognizing only gold and
silver In ordinary commercial transactions,
while in the Atlantic States all business is
conducted on paper currency basis. 1t
Is not unreasonable 10 hope that this may
aid in the gradual return to specie bAsis.
Subscriptions now foot up atAhe rate Of
q hundred millions per month, and al
though they may be temporarily retarded
BY the prevailing disturbance in the New
York stock and gold market, that effect
can only be temporary in its character.
One great beauty Of the present system Of
popular subscriptions is that II is dIffused
over go wide an extent OF territory, that
causes temporarily affecting subscriptions
In given locality have no effect on re-
moter localities. Thus, while there may
be falling of in Eastern subscriptions,
those from the West continue unsbated,
and before tho cause OF the decline in the
demand can begin TO operate in the West
the markets In the East will have recovered
their tone.

IMPORTANT FINANCIAL MOVE
MEnT.

The public will be gratinSd 10 learn that
the arrangements heretofore existing be-
tween the Treasury Department and the
General Subscription Agent will be con-
tlnued for the sale Of the new series OF
7-90 potes, which will bear date June Is,
1885, and will consist OF an issue of three
hundred millions, payable three years after
date, with the privilege OF conversion, at
maturity, Into 500 gold.besripg six per
cent. bonds.
These notes will be the same 90 the pres
snt series In all respects except as to date
Of issue and maturity, More extensive
arrangements than those heretofore "xist-
ing have been made for the more neral
diffusIon and populAriEation Of the loan,
and Il 10 intended that the field shall en-
brace . much wider circuit. Under the
nsw arrangement the States on the Pacific
slope Of the continent, California, Oregon,
and their younger sisters, will be visited
by special agents acting In conjunction
with the eminent express and banking
house Of WILLS, FAReo 4 Co. , which has
ofices ut over three hundred points In the
PAeihc etstes. Agents have been also dis
patched 70 the South Atlantic and Gulf
sOAboArd, who will visit all the cities re,
claimed from rebsldom, and Introduce
into those communities the new Govern
ment loAn.
The withdrawal OF large amounts o.
money In subscriptions 70 this popular
loan might, under ordinary circumstances
produce . stringency In the money mSrke
which would check the demand for thl

BY the Wise precautionary arrangement
made by the Treasury Department, actlHI
in conjunction with the War Department
by which the stream Of disbursements o.

&c, will keep pace with the absorption Q

DlsburSlng officers are authorized, unde
