per cent. It is obvious, there tore, that at
the lowest quotations now or at any oilier
lime ul this stock, it would realise the
coat, in connexion with the rate of ex
change, ihe rise of which against this coutr
try, is supposed to be the principal cause
id-the depression- nl this slock. There is
one error in relation to this subject which
it may be tknrlh explaining.
It is sup.iused by some, that, because
the goverinent ot the United States have
not been enabled to concert their six |>er
cent stocks into fives, that u five percent
stoy-k is deemed undesirable abroad; but
the government has never offered a snick
like that which the Bank hold, in exchange
t,n the nixes. It ha» off red a stock re
deemable ill eight oi ten years. The stock
held by the H. nk is not redeemable in
leas than 13 years aud 3 ,mintt.s.|N» stroll
get- proof call be given titan tue sixes
would be exchanged for sueli a slock,
than the fact that it is quoted higher .titin
Ihe average of the six per ceuis. in the
London maiket.
The Bank, bv a resolution of the 28di
day ol Nov. tuifi, agreed to remit to the
holders ul the capital slock of the bank,
residing in Europe, the dividends which
should be declared thereon, tree of ex
pense. Tina was deemed a very disad
vantageous and buitliensoine engagement
an the part of the bank. Advice uf emi
nent counsel has been taken, to know
whether the bank was hound to continue
these rermttanees, and it has been advis
ed that it was not hound longer than it
sliouhl desire so lotto from its own views
of expediently or. advantage. It was de
termined thereto, e to discontinue this a-
geocy except as to those who had made
regular requisitions or who should do so
bv n given tiny. Aa to these it wus tneught
bett-r that the bank should make thu s.t
ci fice which these remillances reqoir
ed, than incur the suspicion of,having
misled the holders ot stork who had made
the requisition perhaps under the im
piessiun that 'lie regulation was not dts
advantageous to the bank, and that il
would be permanent ; as to all others,
there was nn preteore of claim. Toere ia
one case ot 3541) shares which in under
consideration, which the btuk hashcrcto-
lure determined not lo be entitled to thi
consideration of it. if this be embraced,
the tmmbt'r of shares on which the bank
hns determined tn cuntiuue remittances
will be 15 331). H they be excluded, the
number will be 11,790.
I. The Discounted Paper. The cur-1 privilege, but the parties have urged a re
rent paper of this Bank aud its offices is
probably as good, oi better, than tlie cur
ri-hf paper of orher Batiks, In the places
respvctively where it-is due. There is,
however, unfortunately a heavy massul
suspended paper on which interest is con
titiually accruing, a great cf which will,
nod.iuut, in lime be i covered, but which
adds little or nothing at the present time,
to the luud frmn which the Bulk ia to 4
divide. There ia one portiuii ol this which
independent of the losses already sustain
ed by it, and which are included in the
estimates, I consider as very good and pro
ductive. I mean the forfeited slock con
sisting of 87.854 shares which may be
considered as a reduction of a capital
quite too large, to the extent ofthJir par
value.
II. The Funded Debt held by the Bank.
This raw consists, with the exception of
a very inconsiderable sum, ol seven mil
lions of fi,e per cent, stock subscribed by
the Government ; of two millions of six
percent, stock purchased in 1820, re-
deemible it the pleasure of the Govern
ment ; of four millions five per cent, stock
J mrehased in 1821, and redeemable on the
list of December 1835, Tlie two mil
Hons nf six per cent, stock, ol the Loan
uf 1830, will, in all likelihood, be speedily
redeemed. The lour millions of five per

ditated by Gen, Morales.
Almost every letter yet published which
conveys this idea, was written at Curragoa
where all the reports prejudicial to the
interest of Colombia are propagated, as
well through the medium of the press, as
that of private communication ; and it is
seldom we record an eve.it upon such au
thority, but that the next arrival proves
it to have been a fabrication.
Thetroopsat Maracaibo are commanded
by General dementi, who is perfectly
prepared, and if our information is correct,
" will give as good au account of General
Morales, as he gave ul the former exncdi
lion.” *
