and three-tenths currency loan passes, after
70. day, into the hands Of Messrs. Jay Cooke e
90. We learn that the Secretary proposed
more than two months ago to them to become
the agents of this loan, the same as they had
been for the old a ve-twenry loan, butt they
then declined. His appeal to the National
Banks was subsequently issued, but the re-
ceipts from subscriptions have not met the
necessities OF the Department. 1t is hoped that
Department and the country; and the we'll
known energy Of this business firm, together
with the successful manner in which they
carried through the former loan, makes it al.
most surety that they will not fail in the
present undertaking.
