Mesrs. Wells Fargo & Co. have received sdvices
from their San Francisco house that such

steamer TO pay the interest. The drafts Of Messrs
Palmer, Cook & Co., which were protested here.
have been paid by them. A demand was made upon
Messrs. Palmer, Cook d Co. for the payment of
$50 o0o which had been deposited to meet the county
interest. This refused on the ground that they
held the cash of the city and county as security for
the redemption Of the coupons in New York, but they
stated that it, upon the arrival of the uext steamer it
ascertained the coupons had not beeI paid, then
they would hand the amount over.

Financial offices, and the nterest money of our State

here.
In the mean time, unless this interest is paid, as
Palmer, Cook & Go. cay il will have been within |
fortnight after becomes due, the money to settle
will be sent by the steamer which leaves fortnight
