Head Matter:
Montfort’s Ex’rs. v. Alston.

Opinion:
Bond for Virginia money.
Per curiam.
When Virginia money is contracted for in this State, payable here, i]t must be determined according to the rates established . by law, no!-according lo the exchange; otherwise, were. confraefw! in a for* ign country and Hiere payable. But if in State contracts, the exchange at Halifax for instance shall be. the measure, when it is different at Edenton, and still more so at other places, this would be a strange mode of administering justice.
