Total
The Bank habitue-sheet presents several important
changes. The public deposits are swelled by the
payment of half a million which fell due on the 29th
alt. on the new loan ; but, on the other hand, the
"other" securities exhibit the extraordinary increase
of more than a million, and stand now at more than
fifteen millions and a half. The increase under this
head attests the activity of the demand for money,
part of which was probably occasioned by the instal-
ment on the loan. The coin and bullion show a for-
age trilling decrease. The reserve of notes, on
balances, has diminished by 223,9304 The general
Uranus to be deduced from these variations is, that
the Bank find. good employment for its resources at
the existing rates. The addition to the " Rest " is
eonsidersble.
