reported

on

the subject

as soon as I havz

given

to

a little further consideration,

I but I do not like to allow the present

Mail to leave without observing that if it is intended to introduce the New Syotim of currency with the proposed huw bronze cent piece

as the only Subsidiary Coin to the Dollar,

a

much larger quantity of these Coins will be necessary than that recommended to be prepared immediately by the. Master of the mint in his letter to the Lords of the Treasury of the 26th February 1862, bigh 5,000-

Mollars.

ل

am of opinion that the Smallest quantity of these Coins

which

would

suffice

to start with, would)

be one million or 10,000 Dollars.

I have the honor to be.

May Lord Duke, Your Grace's

Meat Obedient Servant.
