WAsnrNGToN, May 2J.-Ourreaders have
already seen, that the Secretary of the Trca-
suiy has issued a notice for paying of the
residue Of The mississippi Stock, on the lst of
August. We understand that the balance of
me Louisiana stock has already been redccni-
Ell. The amount of the former is estimated
at about 100000, and of the latter at nearly
S2,l00000, inclusive of interest. [.Nat. Int
Up ii mounts.-Stock of the Bank of the
United States is quoted in Turner's New
York Shipping List ofthe 2ed inst. at eish-
teen and hat per cent. advance, being an
advance ofnearly thirty per cent. above the
greatest depression it has experienced. The
U. States five per cent. loan is quoted in the
same paper at nine and half per cent adj
vance. There is such thing as national ere
dit being too good. We hope the credit OF the
United States will never be good enough to
tempt the government to borrow money for
any purpose suggested by the facility of get
ting money, rather than the necessity of the
thing itself.
Blils on London, at co days, are quoted at
premium Of 8 to per cent no.
