Tho orignal amount of tho issuo authorized in Octobor, 1808, was 865,000,000. Tho docrenso of the debt during tne past month was only 370,518, This slight decreaso is explained by tho fact that at the bo- ginning of the flacal dylau large amounts of monoy aro forwarded to the disburaing sgents of tho Government for uso in quartorly paymenta.
