,U.S. ‘7-30 Loan.

The Secretary of the Treasury gives no-
tice that subscriptions will be received for
Coupon Treasury Notes, payable three years
from Aug. 15th, 1864, with semi-annual in-
terest at the rate of seven and three-tenths
per cent. per annum— principal and interest
both to be paid in lawful money.

These notes will be convertible at the op-
tion of the holder at maturity, into six per
cent. gold bearing bonds, payable not less
than five nor more than twenty years from

They will be issued in denominations of $50,
$100, $500, $1,000 and $5,000, and all sub-
scriptions must be for fifty dollars or some
multiple of fifty dollars.

The notes will be transmitted to the own-
ers free of transportation charges as soon
after the receipt of the original Certificates
of Deposit as they can be prepared.

AS the notes draw interest from Aug. 15,
persons making deposits subsequent to that
date must pay the interest accrued from
date of nbte to date of deposit. .

Parties depositing twenty-five thousand
dollars and upwards for these notes at any

one-quarter of one per cent, which will be
paid by the Treasury Department upon a re.
ceipt of a bill for the amount, certified to by
the Officer with whom the deposit was made.
No deductions for commissions must be
made from the deposits. '

Special Advantage of this Loan.

IT Is A NATIONAL SAVINGS BANK, ofi‘ering
a higher rate of interest than any other, and
the best security. Any savings bank which
pays its depositors in U. S. Notes, considers
that it is paying in the best circulating me-
dium of the country, and it cannot pay in
anything better, for its own assets are either
in government securities or in notes or bonds
payable in government paper.

It is equally convenient as a temporary or
permanent investment. The notcscan always
be sold for for within a fraction ‘of their face
and accumulated interest, and are the best
security with banks as collaterals for dis-
counts. , ‘
Convertible into a Six per cent. 5-20 Gold
. Bond.

In addition to the very liberal interest on
the notes for three years, this privilege of
coversion is now worth about three per cent.
per annum. for the current rate for 5-20
Honda is not less than nine per mlprmu‘um,
and before lie war the premium on six per
cent. U. S. stocks was over twenty per cent.
It will be seen that the actual profit on this
loan, at the present market rate, is not less
than ten per cent per annum.

Its Exemption from State or Mwnicipal
Taxation.

Cut aside from all the advantages we have
enumerated, a special Act of Congress cz-
empts all bonds and Treasury notes from local
taxation. 0n the average, this exemption is
worth about two per cent, per annum, ac-
cording tO the rate of taxation in various
parts of the country.

It is believed that no securities offer so
great inducements to lenders as those issued
by the government. In all other forms Of
indebtedness, the faith or ability of private
parties, or stock companies, or separate com
munities, only, is pledged for payment,
while the whole property of the country is
held to secure the discharge of all the obli-
gations Of the United States.

While the government offers the most lib-
eral terms for its loans, it believes that the
very strongest appeal will be to the loyalty
and patriotism of the people.

Duplicate certificates will be issued for all
deposits. The party depositing must endorse
upon the original certificate the denomina-
tion of notes required, and whether they are
to be issued in blank or payable to order.
When so endorsed it must be left with the
Officer receiving the deposit, to be forwarded
to the Treasury Department.
SUBSCRIPTIONS WILL BE RECEIvED by the
Treasurer of the United States, at Washing-
ton, the several Assistant Treasurers and des-
ignated Deposiwries, and by the

_ o F—

THE GREAT RENEE; FOR

CONSUMPTION, ,

And acknowledged by many prominent physicians
to be by far the most reliab 0 preparation ever intro-
duced for the relief and cure of all

Iruug Complaints.

 

This well known remedy Is offered to the public,
sanctioned by the experience of over forty years, and
when resorted to in season, seldon fails to efi'ect a
speedy cure of

Coughs, Colds, Croup, Bronchitis, Influen-
za, Whooping-Cough, Hoarseness, Pains
or Soreness in the Chest and Side,
Bleeding at the Lungs, Liver
Complaints, &c.

Its complete success in many cases of CONFIRMED
CONSUMPTION has reversed the o inion so_ long en-
tertained, that this much dreade disease is incura-

e.

to those who have already made use of this Reme-
dy, no appeal is necessary. To those who have not,
we have only to refer them to the written testimo-
niais of many of our mos distinguished citizens, who
have been restored to health when the expectation
of being cured was indeed a “ forlorn hope.”

Unsolicited Testimony.

From REV. FRANCIS LOBDEL, Pastor of the South
Congregational Church, Bridgeport, Connecticut.
BRIDGEPORT, January 21, 1864.

Messrs. SETII W. FOWLE &. 00.:

Gentlemen :—I consider it a duty which I owe to
to suffering humanity to bear testimony to the v1r-
tues of DR. WISTAR‘S BALSAM or WILD CHERRY. I
have used It—when I have had occasion for any rem-
edy for Coughs, Colds or Sore Throat—for many
years, and never, in a sinale instance, has it failed
to relieve and cure me. fhave frequently been very
hoarse on Saturday, and looked forward to the de-
livery of two sermons on the following day With sad
misgivings, but by a liberal use of the Balsam my
hoarseuess has invariubl been removed, and I have
preached without dif’licu ty. . .

I commend it to my brethren in the ministry, and
to public speakers generally, as a certain remedy
for the bronchial troubles tO which we are peculiar-
ly exposed. _ ' . _

Entirely unsolicrted I send you this testimonial,
which you are at liberty to use in any way you
Chooze. Perhaps the Balsam does not shoot nil per-
sons alike, but it always removes my hoarseness,
and fits me for the minister’s hard working day,—
the Sabbath.

Very truly yours.

FRANCIS LOBDEL.

TESTIMONIALS.

From the Pastor of the Methodist E. Church, Had)
son, Conn.
I have used Coe's Dyspepsia Cure in my family,
and can wrllinoly testify to its value as a medicine.

N ew Haven, Conn., June 18, 1864.
Messrs. EDiTousz—Allow me, through your col
umns, to acknowledge my gratitude for the benefit
I have received from the use of Coe's Dyspepsia
Cure. Although I was a great sufferer from Dyspep-
Sia, the first dose gave instant relief, and one ounce
has enabled me to eat anything I please, without
pain. I have now stopped using the medicine, as I
no longer Iieed it. PAL LYMAN.

Madison, 00nn., June 30th, 1864.
From the benefit derived by the use of Coe’s Dye
pepsin Cure in my family, I am prepared to an that
never intend to be without it and advise a who
are aillicted with Dyspepsia to try it.
PHILANDER LEWIS.

MR. Com—The bottle of Gods Dyspepsia Cure you
gave me has backed up your statement concerning
it. I have only used half a bottle, and can eat pine
apple short cake or anything else, without trouble.
It acts like a charm. The relief it affords is instan-
taneous. . LOWREY.

Those who know my constitution, what m con-
dition has been for the last thirty years, will llovo
with me that a medicine which will reach my case.
will reach almost any one. Coe‘a Dyspepsia Care
has enabled me to, eat. anything I please, and ft is
very seldom I now have to use the medicine. It re-
lieved me in an instant when I was in at In.

IMPORTANT To TnAVluns.

While journeying on the cars, my stomach I).

came badly deranged, causing severe aiu In my
head. Had it been on the water it would have been
called sea-sickness. A lady sitting by me, knowing
my condition, reached out a bottle saying, "take I
swallow." I did so, and in less than fivr- minutes my
trouble was ended. The medicine was "Coe’s Dyl-
pepsia Cure,” and from the efi'ect it had upon tho‘
Stomach, and what I have teamed of it since, I
think it must be an excellent remed for Sea-sick-
ness and Dyspepsia. 1 URL FIELD.

' New Haven. June 28th 1864.

Messrs. C. G. CLARK a Co.-—Genllemcn :—I de-
sire to make known the almost instantaneous effect-
of “Coe’s Dyspepsia Cure." in cases ofcholcramor—
bus. I had been for twenty-four hours purging at
the stomach and bowels. every fifteen minutes. I
went into your drug store to procure some brand ,
as I had always been told that it was a good reme y
for Dysentery, My pallid face and my weakness as
once attracted the attention of‘the clerk in charge
and he asked me at once "what is the matter 1" I
replied: "I have been for twenty-four hours vomit-
ing and purging, and I am unable to stand or walk.
from weakness,aiid this deadly sickness at m stom-
ach completely prostratcs me.” 110 produce a bol- ’
tie OfCoe‘s Dyspepsia Cure, saying, “take a largo
swallow of that ; it is now.11 o’clock; take another
after dinner.”
From the moment I took that first dose of the
medicine my sickness at stomach was gone—its ef-
fect was instantaneous. In an hour I eat my dinner
with as good a relish as ever hungry man partook.
(as I was well cleared out of food,) and followed by
a teaspoonful of cure. I have not. suffered a particle
of inconvenience since I took the remedy.
Its action was so wonderful and so immedflto,
that 1 could hardly believe the evidences of my own
senses, and I desire to publicly make known those
facts, that the whole world may avail themselves 0!
its use. Like bread, it should find a place in every
one‘sllouse, and I believe that no one should go
away from home without a bottle of it in his pocket
or where it could be quickly made available.

Truly yours, . GEO. L. DRAKE.

New Haven, June 11th 1%.
MR. Cos—Dear Sirz—Ilaving been troubled with
the Dyspepsia for some eight or twelve months, I
have taken the usual kinds of medicines, which have
done me no good. I saw your advertisement of 0
medicine to cure the Dyspepsia. I have tried it, and
found it to be THE Medicme. The first 15 drops (tho
1th of J une,) that I took relieved me in one minute
I have taken it three or four times, but have had no
distressing feelina in my stomach since taking the
first 15 drops ; although before, I could not eat I
meal, and sometimes no more than three or four
mouthfuls without distressing me.
Respectfully, J. F. WOODRUFF.

e.-

MR. (JOE—Dear Sin—The bottle of Dyspepsia
Medicine I received from you, gave instantaneous
relief. I only used it when my food distressed ‘me.
It was about like taking two doses today, one to-
morrow, then every other day, increasing the unu-
tity of food and decreasing the medicine, until woo
enabled to out without taking anything at all. My
case was an extreme one, having suffered for seven
years. I now consider myself cured, and by only
using one bottle of Medicine in the space 0 two
months. The dose was a teaspoonfiil.
