By authority of the Secretary of the Treasury, the undersigned, the General Subscription Agent for tiif 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 SEVEN.THIRTY LOAN • These notes are issued under date of July U, 19G5, and are payable three years from thatdate in curren cy, or are convertible at the option of the .bolder Into C. S. FIVE-TWENTY SIX PER CENT. GOLD-BE A RING - BONDS. . These Bonds arc now worth a handsome premium, and are exempt, as are all the Government Bonds, from StaU, County, and Municipal taxation, t ckU} add» from om to three per cent, perimmtm to fieir ruTuA eo cord>ng to the rate levied upon other property. The Interest is payable semi-annually hy coupons attached to each note, which may be cut off and acid to any bank or banker. The interest at 7.30 per cent amounts to One cent per day. 004 tMfefe Two cents per day on'a%fto note * Ten cents per day on a S6OO note. Twenty cents per day .on a SI,OOO note - One Dollar per day on a $5,000 note. Notes of all the denominations named will be prompt ly furnished npou receipt of subscriptions. The Notes of thj Third Series are precisely simiiai in form and privileges to the Seven-Thirties already sold, except that the Government reserves to itself the option of paying interest in gold c in at 6 per cent., in. stead of 6 3-10ths in currency. Subscribers will deduct the interest in currency up to July 16th, at the time when they subscribe. The delivery of tha notes of this third series of the Seven-thirties will commence on the Ist of June, and will lie made promptly and continuously after that date. 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 the interest in Gold bo avail ed of, would so reduce and equalize prices that pur chases mode 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 ad vantages make it the GREAT POPULAR LOAN OF THE PEOPLE. Less than $130,000,000 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 subscrib ed for within sixty days, when the notes will undoobt ediy command a premium, as has uniformly hem the case on dosing the subscriptions to other Loads. In order that citizens of every town and section of the country may be offorded fadlltles for taking the Loan, the National Banks, State Banks, and Private Banker* throughout the country have generally a reed to receive subscriptions at par. Subscribers will select their own agents, in whom they have confidence, and who only axe to be responsible for the delivery of the note, for which they receive orders. JAY COOKE.

I from: tbs xhtsrxor, Late Augusta, Maeoiiy and Atlanta Papers* Interesting Extracts. Railway Connection with the North.— In an able article upon this subject the Macon Telegraph says: The really important question, particular ly to our readers in Middle Georgia, is whjlt tax will be imposed upon them in the shape of freight?, and it is to this point to which we wish to direct a Our railway comtfiffuications being so bad ly broken up, it is much to be feared that the additional freight expenses before they can bo repaired wui be nearly as costly «3 the re pairs themselves. The Central road is so badly injured that it is doubtful whether it will be in full operation in a year’s time Meanwhile the enormous supplies, necessary for this depleted country must, as things stand, either be brought down through Louis ville, Nashville, Chattanooga and Atlanta, or irom Savannah up the river to Augustai from Augusta to Atlanta by rail, and thence down, or they may take the more precarious route by steamer to Darieu, aud thence up the Oomulgee ; or they might be shipped to Apalachicola, and thence up the Chattahoo chee and Flint to Albany, or from Apalacha co ato Fort Gaia -s or Columbia and thence over tne South-w estern and Muscogee, rail ways. If it were possible to force through imme diately the track layiug upon that part of the Milledgeviile and Augusta road which is already graded between Milledgeviile. and Mayfield, it would shorten the railway tran sit of goods via Sayannah about two hundred miles, k aud concentrate upon th- road at once an enormous traffic, befor* the Cen tral road could begot into operate a. We call the attention of enterprising men to the universal importance of this thirty four miles of track, at this particular Junc ture. It is equally to the interest of Middle Georgia, the Central and the Georgia rail roads that it should be laid at once, and it is the best chance to turn an honest penny in railway speculation that we know of.— .But if this cannot be built within a short time, then it is for the interest of the Geor gia and the Macon and Western railway to equip themselves as rapidly as possibly for a heavy business, and determine by a system of low freights and prompt carriage, to mon opolize the immense carrying trade which, it they are wise, will soot open upon them , Restoration of Givil Law, The following orders, restoring civil law to a certain extent, in Georgia and other States, have sheared. The Macon Tele graph says‘'These orders are liberal and conciliatory, and we know they, wiil be met in a corresponding spirit by the people, and tend to‘dissipate that the Federal authority :IS in a riitorou3 and oppressive manner.” Hsau’qrs Deyaetment or the ) • . CUMBEBLAND, f Nashville, Tenn., April 13, 1865. ’ . General Ordersi No. 21. A large portion of Northern Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and Western North Oaro-. lina being now within the lines of tho Fed eral Anny, the Major General Commanding desires to restore the authority of the civu law iu the several counties of these States embraced within this Department at as early a period as possible. It 13 accordingly recommended that ail duly authorized Judges, Sheriff*, Commissioners, Justices of the reace, and other officers who may be in these counties, immediately pro ceed to outer upon and perform the duties of their respective offices, according to the laws of the State in force at the beginning of the war, as far as it may be found to be practi cable. Wherever vacancies in county offices ex ist, it is enjoined upon the loyal people of the neighborhood-to bold regular elections and select -officers competent to reorganize the civil courts, and uphold the authority of the civil laws. Commanding Officers of all Military, Dis tricts and Posts are directed to protect the civil authorities as far as may be consistent with the interests of the service, and to co operate with it in restoring order. At the breaking out of tue rebellion against the National Government, the people of Nor thern Alabama and Geoigia and- Western North Carolina, overpowered by the tide of secession, were among the last to desert the cutue of the Union; and the Commanding General ot tills Department confidently hope* Uiat they will be among the first to return to their allegiance and to assist ill the restora tion of peace and the enforcement of the laws.

[Savannah Correspondence of the Macon Telegraph. J The “Forest City’’ has been occupied by the Union forces over five months, and so favorable has been the change that the gen eral satisfaction is manifest The observer heurs no grumbling at the great change which has been wrought, and sees but little discontent manifested. Occasionally a sul len face is seen, but not «teo. Tne social status of the city is feat approximating that point for which Savannah was so justly ctl ebrated years ago. The churches are undis turbed in their worship, except iu the form of prayers used in reference to the govern ment. A general school system has been established, which makes provision for the education .of both white, and black, in sep arate educational organizations. The latter was ordered by the military authorities, and. the general principles pf the plan established, but the execution of. the the details is en trusted to au educational board ot citizens, PRICE. 5 CENTS of which Mayor Arnold is the head. The schools, I am told, arj. well attended, and the system is working well. Iu political matters nothing is doing, but there is the greatest* anxiety to take steps to bring the State back -into -the Union. The call of Gov. Brown, for a meeting of the Legislature, wa? enthusiastically responded to by a large meetiug of the most influential citizens, and at first there was some disatis faction felt at the negative position taken by the U. S. authorities. But reflection has led to the. conclusion that--the course, resolved upon is the wisest It is admitted that the -action of the people sinee.the passage of the ordinance of separation has been illegal un der the Constitution of the United States, and therelore the State ha? no Governor or Legislature. Primary ac>ion by the people, therefore, is necessary, tj le-crgaaize the State Government, aim tney but await the opportunity to do so. Jt is understood; how ever, no steps will be allowed to be taken except by permission of the Washingi on Gov ernment. aud under the direction of the Mili tary Governor. luceiuai Improvements. .

Wo mean his future status as to slavery. But what we desire now to direct the attention of our Military Authorities in Georgia to, is what shall be his present and future in regard tff labor? We do this respectfully, and with an eye solely to the general benefit. The Wheat, Oats, and Com are now fast approaching maturity, Shall the negro be freed from their farther cultivation, or shall he be made to attend them until they be harvested ,and gathered? ’ This is a grave question, and ought to be determined without delay. Re cently many ot the. farms and plantations in our State, we learn, promising abundant bajvests, have been abandoned by tbe ne groes cultivating them, rendering it certain ‘ that the labor thus far expended upon them, unless it be restored, will be lost—that the ’ fields npvv so promising in appearance, will yield no return. In the present condition of our State—with an almost starving popula tion now—what will be the condition of both whites and negroes, in the' fulure, 'if the labor of the latter be withdrawn from our fields? We appeal, mpst respectfully, to those who can control this labor; in the name of humanity, we appeal to them,*'to regulate this matter without delay.

The charming Spring * time-lias beautified it with its usual wealth of flowers and shady vegeta tion. A large number of its citizens have return ed, repaired their residences and planted gardens that are yielding largely. The peo ple have settled quietly into the usual rou tine of habits and business they were used to before the misfortunes of war laid its heavy sorrows on the laud.

The lruit crop promises to be very fine and abundant. Tho peach trees are laden with an unusually large amount of fruit, and if no aocident of drouth occurs there will be a very large and valuable: yield of that fruit. • The season promises well for all produce, and the providential blessings ol large and * luxuriant crops will be very welcome to our needy people, thousand* of whom will be de pcndent.on other sections than their-own for subsistence. —Moocw T&kgraph. , The last Paris ’is to paint horaessa poodles have beea painted. .
