J The Congress of the Confederate States has authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to issue Bonds to an extent not exceeding one hundred millions of dollars for the purpose of funding its Treasury Notes and for making exchanges for the proceeds of the sale of raw produce snd manufactured articles, and the purchase of specie and of military stores. Under the authority of a previous Act the Se cretary appointed Commissioners, resident in different sections of the several States, to so licit in advance from planters, manufacturers and others, subscriptions of the proceeds of the sale of their crops and other branches of industry, to be paid for in Bonds of the Con federate States. To the patriotic and zealous efforts of these Commissioners, no less than to the lofty pa triotism of the people, the Government is in debted for an aggregate subscription which reaches already many millions of dollars.— The liberality of every class of the commun ity has been evinced. The cotton, the rice, the tobacco and sugar planters have vied Wjith each other, and in the first named staple alone the subscription in several of the States reaches from one third to one-half of the en tire crop. It is not proposed, as has been frequently explained, to interfere with the usual and cus tomary arrangements of planters and others in making sale of their produce. This is not necessary. It is only asked that each indi vidual shall indicate in advance the propotion of the same which he is willing to subscribe, the time and place of delivery, the factor or merchant in whose hands it is to be placed for sale, and who is authorized to pay over the proceeds and receive in exchange Confed erate Bonds. These bonds carry interest of eight per cent,, payable semi-annually,and are not to be issued of less denomination than one hundred dollars, except where the subscrip tion is for a less amount, when the limit is fixed at fifty dollars. The payment of the principal and interest of the Bonds is secured, as will be perceived, by special Act of Con gress. The agricultural and manufacturing interests which have now the opportunity of contribu tributing to the wants and sustaining the cred it of the Government, were not in condition to make cash subscriptions to the loan previ ously authorized. Their surplus capital was already invested, and their command of re sources, in the nature of things, was mainly io tie looked tor in tne future resources rney are authorized safely to draw, and the investment proposed aside from its claims on the score of patriotism, may be regarded altogether as advantageous and as safe as any other business transaction. The time of sale referred to in the caption of the lists which are sent out, is intended to indicate the usual date at which the crop is brought to market, and well of course be sub ject to those considerations of mutual interest to which would postpone a sale where the property would be sacrificed. Special agents have been appointed, or will be appointed, in every County and District of the South. They will be furnished with sub scription lists, and requested to bring the sub ject before their fellow-citizens in every pro per manner, by personal appeals, public ad dresses or through the instrumentality of the press. The results of their labors will be communicated from time to time to this De partment, and it is requested that agents will endorse upon the lists the name of the Post office, County and State to which they be long. The sections of the several Acts of Con gress which relate to the subject of the loan are herewith annexed. C. G. MEMMINGER. Secretary of the Treasury. An Act to authorize a loan, and issue of Treasury notes, and prescribe the punishment for forging the same, and for forging Certifi cates of Stocks and Bonds. Section 1. The Congress of the Confeder ate States of America do enact, That the Se cretary of the Treasury may, with assent of the President of the Confederate States, issue fifty millions of dollars in bonds, payable at the expiration of twenty years from their date, and bearing a rate of interest not exceeding eight per cent., per annum until they become payable, the said interest to be paid simi-an nually.

Nor shall the said bends be issued in fractional parts of the hundred, or be ex changed by the said Secretary for Treasury notes, or the notes of any bond, corporation or individual, but only in the manner herein prescribed: Provided, That nothing herein contained shall be so construed as to prevent the Secretary of the Treasury from receiving foreign bills of exchange in payment of these bonds.

That-for the purpose of fund ing the said notes, and for making exchange for the proceeds of the sale of raw produce and manufactured articles, or for the purchase of specie or military stores, the Secretary of the Treasury, with assent of the President, is authorized to issue bonds, payable not more ■ than twentyyears after date,and bearing a rate of interest not exceeding eight per centumn per annum until become payable, the interest to be paid simi-annually ; the said bonds not 1 to exceed in the whole one hundred millions of dollars, and be deemed a substitute for thirty millions of the bonds authorized to be issued by the act approved May 16, 1861; and this act is to be deemed a revocation of the authority to issue the said thirty millions. The said bonds shall not be issued in less sums than one hundreds dollars, nor in in fractional parts of a hundred, except when the subscription is less than one hundred dol lars, the said bonds may be issued in sums of fifty dollars. They may be sold for specie, military and naval stores, or for raw produce and manufactured articles, in the same man ner as is provided by the act afooesaid ; and whenever subscriptions of the same have been, or shall have be made payable at a pacticular date, the Secretary of the Treasury shall have power to extend the time of sale until such date as he shall see fit to indicate. Section 4.
