is herewith communicated Tor the information OF tue
stockholders.
II will be seen that General Hamilton has used I'M.
common exertions effect the negotiation with which
he was charged having, with view 10 this OBJECT re-
peaedy crossed The British Channel and VISITED various
cities in Europe. Until within few months past, he
entertained confident expectations of eecng The sale
of the bonds and at one period had entered INTO
preliminary arrangements with eminent banking
house in the city Of Hamburg. But the disastrous ~.
telgence from America in the latter part OF the sum
mer, produced the most injurious effect upon American
securities in Europe and defeated the negotiation.
twill be perceived, likewise, from this correspond
ence that the last annual meeting, he has pro-
vded for the temporary loan OF 1000, then due TO
the house ofMessrs Palmer, NJ killop, Dent y Cos Of
London, by another temporary loan from the house OF
James Morrison, Esq, of that city. This loan has been
subsequently augmented to 100000 and the hole Sc
cured by pledge of portion Of the company , per

From the last letters received from Gen. Hamilton
it appears that he embark from Eng land on the
9TH Dec, with the confident expectation of beng IN
Richmond in the first week in January next bringing
with him the unpledged portion OF the bonds.
Upon his arrival the board will doubtless be furnish
