Total

$54,240,000.

From this total however certain deductions have to

be made. of the $10 notes one million dollars worth were

printed but never issued by the Treasury, and of the $1 notes $200,000 worth were issued by the revel government ?

and not recognised as valid for redemption.

These de-

ductions left about $88,000,000 worth of notes to be accounted for, of which $51,645,504 worth have actually

been redeemed. The total forgeries only amounted to $1,567, a very mall proportion; and the notes redeemed

of whom only five were presented by 4,285 individuals

or six veze vámén. The danéminations of the notes pre-

sented were as follows:-

Allowing for notes lost, destroyèd and emcelled an

unredeemable for lack of proper seala and numbers etc. it seems clear that but a vozy mall number of the old notes

can now be in existence.
