 "This gives the nominal, rather than real amount of the debt Its real amount on the 1st of January will be but faction above sixty millions. The sum of seven millions subscribed by the Government 10 the Bank of the United States, is, in effect destroyed as debt by the United States owning an eqnal amount in the shares of the bank. So far is this sum from being charge to the treast- ". that the latter is annually receiving interest for it, in the dividends of the shares.

 ''In the last annual report a loan, to the a. mount of sixteen millions, at an interest not to exceed per cent was recommended. The object of such loan was to pay off d portion of the debt, equal to sixteen millions, hearing an interest of 6 per cent. No law to this effect having passed, it became the duty of the department to proceed in the work ot paying of the 6 per cents as far as the means of the Treasury would allow. Accordingly on the list of July the sum of S5,007.S03 was paid on account of the per cent loan of 1918. By the decision of the commissioners of the Sinking Fund, in September, it was a. greed the further sum of S1,5OO,OOO should be paid on account of the same loan, at the termination of this year. Public notices have been issued in conformity with this decision, and are now outstanding.
