For a small loan of between three and four hundred
thouiand dollars at five per cent., needed by this State to pay
off some balances due to contractors on the public works, no
bids were made on the terms required by the notice, fire per
cent. and not below par. This is not surprising, considering
that the actual value of money is great just now and the
general expectation, if the war with Mexico continue any
time, that the United States Government will need loans on
which a higher interest will be offered. A preference more.
over is given to the Stocks of the United States over that of
any State.

when all the resources of revenue are needed, it does not
seem probable, that on grounds of merely speculative
evil and theoretical inequality and oppressiveness, a con-
gress of practical men will enter ou the experiment of
altering a law, that furnishes such ample supplies to the
Exchequer.
