United States 7.30 LOAN.
THIRD SERIES, $230,000,000.
By authority of the Secretary of the Treasury, the undersigned, the General Subscription Agent for the sale of United States Securities, offers to the public the third series of Treasury Notes, bearing seven and three-tenths per cent. interest per annum, known as the 7.30 LOAN.
These notes are issued under date of July 15, 1865, and are payable three years from that date in currency, or are convertible at the option of the holder into U. S. 5-20 Six per Cent.
GOLD-BEARING BONDS.
These Bonds are now worth a handsome premium, and are exempt, as are all the Government Bonds, from State, County, and Municipal taxation, which adds from one to three per cent. per annum to their value, according to the rate lovied upon other property. The interest is payable semi-annually by coupons attached to each note, which may be cut off and sold to any bank or banker.
The interest at 7.30 per cent. amounts to
One cent per day on a $50 note.
Two cents per day on a $100 note.
Ten cents per day on a $500 note.
Twenty cts. per day on a $1000 note.
One dollar per day on a $5000 note.
Notes of all the denominations named will be promptly furnished upon receipt of subscriptions.
The Notes of this Third Series are precisely similar in form and privileges to the Seven-Thirties already sold, except that the Government reserves to itself the option of paying interest in gold coin at 6 per cent., instead of seven and three-tenths in currency. Subscribers will deduct the interest in currency up to July 15, at the time when they subscribe.
The slight change made in the conditions of this THIRD SERIES affects only the matter of interest. The payment in gold, if made, will be equivalent to the currency interest of the higher rate.
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 priees that purchases made with six per cent. in gold would be fully equal to those made with seven and three-tenths per cent. in currency. This is The Only Loan in Market Now offered by the Government; and its superior advantages make it the Great Popular Loan of the People.
Less than $230,000,000 of the Loan authorized by Congress are now on the market. This amount, at the rate at which it is being absorbed, will all be subscribed for within sixty days, when the notes will undoubtedly command a premium, as has uniformly been the case on closing the subscriptions to other Loans.
In order that citizens of every town and section of the country may be afforded facilities for taking the Loan, the National Banks, State Banks, and Private Bankers throughout the country have generally agreed to receive subscriptions at par. Subscribers will select their own agents, in whom they have confidence, and who only are to be responsible for the delivery of the notes for which they receive orders.

Remarkable Cure of Stiff Knee by Allcock's Porous Plasters.
How many persons, from stepping on a piece of orange-peel, have been lamed for life. A case which might have been of this kind has just been brought to our notice. A gentleman, from placing the heel of his boot on a piece of orange-peel, was suddenly thrown down, and violently sprained his knee. He was six months confined to the house, though he had the best medical advice. As a last resort a very eminent physician was called in to see if any thing more could be done. After examination he said, "My opinion is, your knee will never be bent again." He recommended that the whole leg and knee should be encased in a plaster of Paris bandage, which would accelerate the permanent stiffening of the knee, and said, "The sooner it was done the better." But the patient, before trying this application, and having a stiff knee for life, enveloped it in our Porous Plasters, and in less than two months his knee was perfectly cured.

THE COTTAGE PRINTING-PRESS
Is the best cheap printing-press ever introduced to public notice. Simple, durable, and efficient, occupying but little space, it is adapted to meet the wants of business men and others, who, for the sake of economy, necessity, or convenience, wish to do their own printing, and on their own premises. It enables them, without delay, and at a small expense, to print hand-bills, circulars, cards, bill-heads, &c., and in style equal to that of most country printing-offices. Although designed and will be found useful for all business and professional men, yet to country merchants and druggists it is an invaluable invention, furnishing not only the best but the cheapest method of advertising and increasing one's business. With each press we furnish, if desired, the necessary type, ink, &c., for the execution of any kind of printing.
No more acceptable present can be made to youth than one of these printing-offices. It combines lucrative employment with amusement and instruction. It learns one to compose, to spell, and to punctuate. There is no better school for the young man than the printing-office, such a thing as an illiterate printer being unknown; and for the purpose of learning the trade, as an employment for life, the possession of one of our small printing-offices renders a regular apprenticeship unnecessary.
Printed instructions for setting type and managing the press accompany each office. When desired, the offices will be arranged for printing in Spanish, French, German, and other foreign languages. Circular sent free. Specimen sheets of type, cuts, &c., 10 cents.
