Q.OLDEN- ALE.
I Written when ttmei were dull, and Golden Ale w ant
ed a market—many years ago.
i What’s the world t* a man without children and wife,
I He may toil, he nuv strive, the whole length of his
life,
Let him drink Golden Ale, and his spirits ’twill cheer,
Till the glow on hia cheek draws some kind creature
■ear.
Let him drink Golden Ale, and soon wedded he’ll
be; J
How his heart will expand when a babe’s on his knee;
Let him never Imbibe till his spouse have a share,
And blessings and peace will for ever be there.
The old maiden, too, had long thought to herself,
When no kind hand was near, she must get on the
shelf;
But she tried Golden Ale, and its magical train
Brought beauty and youth to her cheek once again.
And lovers in scores to her cottage repair,
Youth blooms on her cheeks and raven’s her hair,
Once again in her teens she’s the Belle of the Vale,
And is doatingly fond of the famed Golden Ale.
The old and the yonng to be hearty and hale,
Should each day imbibe of this bright Golden Ale,
And their cellars well store for the cold winter’s night
As ’tis health to the sick, to the blind it is light.

U S. 7-30 LOAN.
By authority of the Secretary of the Treasury, the
undersigned has assumed the General Subscription
Agency for the sale of United States Treasury No
tes, bearing seven and three-tenths per cent, interest
per annum, known as the
SEVEN-THIRTY LOAN.
These Notes are issued under date of August. 15th,
1864, and are payable three years from that time, in
currency, or are convertible at the option of the
holder into
UNITED STATES 6-20 SIX PER CENT.
GOLD-BEARING bonds.
These bonds are now worth a premium of nine per
cent., including gold interest from Nov., which
makes the actual profit on the 7-30 loan, at current
rates, including interest, about ten per cent, per an,
nnm, besides exemption from Mate and municipal
taxation , which adds from one to three per cent, more,
according to the rate levied on 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 amounts to
One cent, per day on a SSO note.
Two cents “ “ SIOO “
Ten “ “ “ SSOO “
20 “ “ “ SIOOO “
$1 “ “ “ SSOOO “
Notes of all denominations named will be prompt
ly furnished upon receipt of subscriptions. This is
THE ONLY LOAN IN MARKET
now offered by the Government, and It is confidently
expected that its superior advantages will make it the
GREAT POPULAR LOAN OF THE PEOPLE.
Less than $2,000,000 remain unsold, which will pro
bably be disposed of .within the next 60 or 90 days,
when the notes will undoubtedly command a pre
mium, as has uniformly been the case on closing the
subscription 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 Pri
vate Bankers throughout the country have gener
ally agreed to receive subscriptions at par. Sub
scribers will select their own agents, in whom they
have confidence, and who only are to be responsible
for the delivery ofthc Notes for which they receive or
