lowing :
In consequence of the contract entered into by your Ex-
cellency with the house of Messrs. Hallett, Brothers, and
Co., in London, to raise a Loan of one million pounds ster-
ling for account of this State, by virtue of the powers con-
ferred on your Excellency, the Supreme Government, desir-
ous to secure the investment of the principal in such a man-
ner as to benefit the nation, and at the same time to issue to
the lenders the punctual fulfilment of its obligations, has
submitted to the most excellent supreme House of Repre-
seatatiros (Corte de Represtantes), all the official letters.
bonds, dc. which you have transmitted to this Government
relative to the said loan. After a mature examination, the
House passed an Act, which I have the honour to transmit to
your Excellency, in order that, after having taken cogni-
sance of the contents, you will communicate the same ofil-
cialy to Messrs. Hallett and Co. for the purpose of their ho-
nouring the drafts which will immediately be issued on
them ; it being clearly understood, that after the same are
duly paid out of the funds in their fiends belonging to this
Government, they will be relieved from all responsibility.—
The present resolution adopted by the House of Represen-
lathes being only provisional, until the National Baok shall
be established, the Directors of which will be charged with
managing every thing connected with the loan, and its re-
demption, as well as the payment of the interest, dc. I re-
serve it to myself then to communicate to your Excellency
all further instructions that may be necessary."
In the absence of Don Antonio Jose de Yrisarri, I have
the honour to transmit to you the above, as also a copy of
the Act to which it refers, for your information and galls-
ftetion.. I renew to you the sentiments of my most distin-
guished consideration. (Signed)

1522.
The Douse of Representatives, assembled in the extraor-

night, took the following official communication of his Ex-
cellency the Supreme Director, Into consideration:—
" Santiago de Chile, Dec.2l, 1922.
" Most Excellent House of Representatives.—The mea-
sures which the House has been pleased to point out in its
note of the 19th inst. seem to me to be the most fit and ode-
quite for the good results which the loan raised in London
by the Minister Plenipotentiary, Don Antonio Jose de
Yriserri, by virtue of the full powers which were conferred
on him for the purpose, will produce to the country. Anxi-
ous, however, to conduct this transaction with all the pru-
dence, frankness, and rectitude which may insure the suc-
cess Of operations on which depend, as well the prosperity
of the State as the opinion which they are to produce abroad.
I have ceded and do cede to the most excellent supreme
House of Representatives, all the faculties which in me re-
side, as head of the executive power ; in order that the
said House may, after the most mature consideration of the
subject, designate the persons which it may deem the most
fit to direct the nationul bank, which Is to be established,
and may also prescribe all the laws and regulations neces-
sary to give to that important establishment all the con-
sistency, effect, and public confidence, without which the
benefits which ought to accrue to the nation cannot be ob-
tained.

"The Supreme Director, Are.
" BERNARDO O'HIGGINS."
Accordingly, and until the establishment of the bank al-
ready decreed shall be carried into effect, it is ordered, that
the funds produced by the loan negociated in London, and
on the eve of arriving, shall be deposited In the Treasury of
the Mint, at the sole disposal of this House, and to autho-
rize, as hereby is authorized, the superintendent Den Jose
Santiago Portales, the comptroller, Dun Ansel's° de la 1
Cruz, and the treasurer, Dolt Rilvestre Martinez de Ochaga-

which may be in the hands of the house of Messrs. Mullett, I
Brothers, and Co., whicb drafts are to be countersigned by
Mr. Humphry Booster, as agent for that house.
Ordered, That this resoluiion be communicated to his
Excellency the Supreme Director, to be printed, published,
and circulated. (Signed)
