PURSUANT to the Act of the General Assembly, we this Day repaired to the public Treasury, and, having examined the Treasurer's Accounts of the different Receipts and Payments since the last Settlement, and compared them with their proper Vouchers, find that they are all fairly and justly stated. The Balance due to the public Account appears to be one thousand one hundred and forty nine Pounds five Shillings and eight Pence three Farthings; the Balance due to the Fund of old Taxes we find to be ten thousand and fifty four Pounds thirteen Shillings and five Pence; the Balance due to the Fund of ten thousand Pounds, issued in 1769, we find to be nine thousand and ninety eight Pounds; and the Balance of the Taxes appropriated to the Redemption t the last thirty thousand Pounds, which have been received, to be five thousand nine hundred and forty seven Pounds eighteen Shillings and seven Pence. We have this Day burnt and destroyed of such Treasury Notes as are now redeemable, to the Amount of twenty thousand five hundred and thirteen Pounds nineteen Shillings. The several Balances which are still due to the Public the Treasurer produced to us, and they remain in his Hands to be accounted for at future Day.
