Walker, Register, 2,080 00 8.91 18,843 15 $57,405 57 $28,154 75 1,240 00 *7,980 00 2,105 36 585 00 245 00 4,075 15 interest on North Carolina Bonds, 2 63 $57,405 57 * This needs explanation. When the first remittance was made to purchase stock, I instructed my Factors in New York as to what stocks they might buy. Not aware, at the time, that Virginia and Georgia had Bonds in market, these States were not embraced in the list I sent, and the Factors preferred Ohio Bonds to those of any other State designated, which were purchased at 115. Soon, however, I ascertained that Virginia and Georgia were offering their Bonds. I made a bid for $7,000 of the latter, bearing 7 per cent. interest, at 1054, which bid was successful. To pay for them, I sold the Ohio 6's at a small loss, and the expenses attending this double transaction made the Georgia Bonds cost about 109 20-100. The change, however, is unquestionably a good one. + Since this balance came into the hands of the Comptroller, stocks in market have ranged so high that he considered it prudent to wait for the opportunity of buying more North Carolina Bonds, as he has been informed by the Treasurer of that State that he would offer more during this Fall; and, as these Bonds can be purchased on better terms than any others, because they are never offered out of the State, and therefore are not subject to the speculating influences of foreign competition like stocks sold in Wall street. 1852.
