THE ALABAMA RONDS.

New YORK, D,c lS.-The meeting Of the hold
ers of Alabama bonds was held here to-day. The
committee appointed at previous meeting, pre-
scented voluminous report in relation to the
direct debt, which is stated at sl4, 7lzl56. The
total deduction from this amount is 81 686 900
leaving a balance OF s12,032, us. The committee
proposed that in relation to the past interest up
to January LIST, 1876, the State give bends pay
able in thirty years, interest to commence five
years after date. They also propose that on the
direct debt the interest should be paid at the rate
of three per cent for three years, and five per
cent for twenty-seven years.
The report shows that the resources of the
State if properly handled are sufficient to very
easily pay this amount on the direct indebted
ness. An Executive Committee of three was APP
pointed to manage and represent the interest of
the bond holders before the Alabama Legislature
in an effort to receive better compromise than
that offered by the circular of the Commissioners
of the Sinking Fund. 1t was resolved that one
eighth of one per cent be charged on the bonds
represented, as an assessment to defray the ex-
peuses incurred by the committee.
