of Your Government. And before we make any observations
on the Reasons given in your Letter to evince the Necessity of a Paper
Currency in your Province and what else you have said upon the Subject,
it will be proper to tell you that the Report of the Committee of
Conference which you have sent us on the present State of Paper Currency
in your Province, and the Bills now outstanding differs from an Account
which we have had prepared here for our Use from the several Acts of
Assembly which have been passed in your Government for emitting such
Currency. We will state to you what We understand to be the Amount of
the Paper Currency at present outstanding in your Province and the
operations which every Act has had, that you may compare our State with
that of the Committee and explain the Reason of their differing. | | Similar Items: | Find |
