case of the death of one of them, by the survivor,
to such purposes, as Tie the said President should
think proper to direct in his instructions to them.
That the seen tarr of the treasttVy did accord
ingly on the 18th day of March, li>06, authorise
the said John Armstrong ami I«iw« llowdoin. to
draw bills of exchange for the said two millions
of dollars, in manner following: viz on tlie ban
kcra of the'United States at Amsterdam, for one
Bullion of dollars, and on the treasury of the U

That tb.e bank era of the United States at Am

out of tin. t undsin tliRir hands, on account of tlie

thi payment of that debt, tdi the vear 1897, were
pur based and transmitted to ihem. between the

That this transaction was officially communi

“ million thus employed for a different object
" than tlie pay ment of the foreign debt, to which
“ it now stands charged.”
