Description
Plan for redemption of the debt of the United States expected to be shortly under the consideration of the House of Representatives; its practicability may depend on answers to following inquiry: will the Bank of Pennsylvania make an annual loan of $100,000 for the term of 5 years, interest at five per cent per annum? Does not propose a contract but only opinion of present directors; nor would loan be accompanied by engagement to make another; a similar enquiry addressed to other banks.
