to feel quite comfortable, Notwithstanding
the increasing warmth OF the weather.

shares was sold q. the latter figure, and
one hundred went at $50. We hear Of
another sale, two hundred shares, yester-

The days interest centred in Mississippi

and extensive enough to crafty
any reasonable degree OF cupidity.
The highest sale Friday that came to our

THE FL0ATINA nEHT.


Administrator Shaw's advertisement
calls upon the holders of the floating debt
to present their obligations and vouchers
tomorrow, commencing at II N. Some
difficulty is anticipated by the owners Of
pledged securities, owing to the fact that
their W arrants, bills and certificates are in
the hands Of PLEDGES. There can or need
be no difficulty about the matter, for it is
the mutual interest Of owner and PLEDGE
to have them early presented. The value
Of the security, of whatever kind it may
be, is enhanced by its early passing in
spection and being placed upon the sworn
statement OF the Administrator Of Public
Accounts, which is to be passed to the
Bank Of New Orleans as the Administrator
of the Floating Debt. 1t then begins to
draw seven per cent upon certificate, if it
has not already done so. Every owner
should notify his PLEDGE, who is the
holder for the time being, to presen. his
paper.
As the Administrator of Public Accounts
has called for the presentation OF papers
and documents in such enclosed form
that they may be readily sealed, numbered
and identified, it is evident that the
proper course will be at once to return
the package to the holder, and such, We
understand, will be the n10dl,s operGndi.
The Pledge thus retains the pledge in
his hands until it becomes his turn, ac-
cording to number, to have his voucher
examined, passed upon, and approved.
This will necessitate another call-for in
stance, Tor the presentation Of the numbers,
one to one hundred, to be examined ac-
cording to priority. The ablest ex-
aminers in the city, such men
as J ohm Calhoun, John G. Devereux aud
George Wood will be engaged in passing
upon these documents, which insures to
the community rapidly, correctness, and
the detection and rejection of all spurious
and fraudulent claims. 1t is O herculean
labor, but with accountants and investiga-
tors of ability such as those named, tie
confused mass left by the late city author
tiles will be reduced to system and
moulded into shape, so that We will have
some tangible degree of consistency in the
shape of the floating debt, and an accurate
statement Of its amount, classifying what
is liouidated and genuine, and what is spu-
rious and fraudulent and ought to be con-
tested.
The Pledge matter, it seems, can pre-
