The reduction of the national debt for the
month of June is upwards of seven millions
We continue to pay our debt with marvellous
rapidly, but the most marvellous thing of all
is that the democratic papers continue to cry
out that the country is sinking in bankruptcy

No better security has been offered

to investors. The Bonds are largely profitable, as
well as entirely safe. One thousand dollars invest
ed in these eight per cent bonds will give the pur.
chaser more than Serenty-SereR per cent. greater
annual interest than the same amount invested in
the new Government Five Per Cents.
At the same price, an per cent currency long
bond Is far cheaper than a per cent. gold one.
Calculating a return to specie payments in three
years, and taking the time that the bonds of the
New Orleans, Mobile and Texas Railroad have to
run-i5 years--we find that by compromising the in
terest of each, every six months, at per cent an
s per cent. currency bond at 90 Will give
a return of S2,GI4.Is MORE than a per

nearly three times the Ount of the orig

The Bonds are dated May /, ISL. The first cou-

from May to July /. The price is 80, and accrued
