rusry will amount to about. $3.50 900
From which must be paid, in accord.


ance with q law OF last session, to


bill creditors. s................. 5000 O0O
To domestic creditors. ....... 100 GO0-36O 600
Leaving applicable to interest. ........ $29OO00


The taxes are collected annually, and paid into
the Treasury. for the most part, the last three
months Of the year; consequently, the receipts for
the ensuing six months must be very light, and f
the money in the Treasury on the lst February
should be paid out there will be little or nothing
toward the payment of the August interest. Nothing
but rigid economy, vigorous collection of the
taxes, and the outstanding of resources. until the
the State has enough in hand to pay the interest in
full and something beyond, can the payment Of the
interest be resumed upon solid foundation, and
Gov. Skunk will be governed by these considera-
tlons III the line OF policy he will adopt As to the
idea of the State borrowing money to me ct the in.
tersst, it is too absurd to require notice.
