Shee sell, igsned as the Act now anthorizoa, REPORT or THE HONORABLE JOSEPIT HENSLEY, Attorney General, TO THK GOVERNMENT OF PRINCE EDWARD Is- LAND, RESPECTING [is MISSION TO ENGLAND ON THE SUBJECT OF THE LOAN BILL AND OTHER MATTERS Continven. Subsequently I had numerons iaterviews with Mr. Barton, and with many gentlemen connected with the Stock and Money Market, on the subject of the proposed Loan, the final result of which was a de- termination upon my part to delay lof a time placing the application absolutely before the public. It was evidently, notwithstanding the abundance aud cheap- uess of money, a very uvfavorable time for the oper- ation, A general indisposition to invest ia any new securities, (Lome, Foreign, or Colonial, existed, and this was proved by the failure of several attempts to raise Loans, An attempt was mado during the month of July to raise a Loan of £109,000 for the Colony of Tasmania. The Loan was publicly ad- vertised and Tenders invjted. The miuimum price fixed by the Tasmanian Government at which Teod- ers would be accepted was 95, that is a bonus of five per cent. ou each Bond or Debenture for £100, which was also to bear interest at six pereont, per anunm, At this price there was only one Tender, and that was £1000 only; and consequently the Tasmanian authorities were obliged to let the appli- cation lie over for a time, Ad attempt to raise a Loan of money in the month of August for the Russian Government also failed. ‘The following correspoudence which passed between myself and Mr, Alexander Scrimgeour, of the firm of Messrs. J. & A. Scrimgeour, No. 18, Old Broad Street, London, extensive Brokers, and Brokers for the Union Bank of London, will explaia clearly the state of the money market at the time as regarded the Loan proposition. IT had handed to Mr. Alex- ander Sczimgeonr, for his opinion and adviee, the papers connected with the Loan, and on 21st Jaly, he wrote as follows :— 6 DuxkeLn, “21st July, 1867, “ Dear Srr, * I have read the papers respecting the Loan for Prince Edward Island very carefully, and there is only one suggestion which [have to inake which is as to the application of the Sinking Fund. ‘ T have no doubt that it would tend to make the Loan popular if the Sinkiny Fund were made to act CONT TTT Cre tog at peng thmtdmnt arranged to meet Mr. Barton at the Union Bank. on, Weduesday, at half past teu o'clock, to determine, what cousse [ shall pursue now aboat the Loan,! and T shall be very much obliged if you will be so, go01 aa to give maa reply and your opivioa on the) poiats to which Ihave referred, so (iat I may re- ceive it on or bafore Weduasday morning next. * You will please boar in mind that T desire to, issue the Loan vow if practicable, bat I shall be very, much guided by your opinion and advice. *f am, dear Sir, * Yours very traly, * JOSEPH HENSLEY.” Mr, Serimgeour replied to the following effect :— $24, Uston Sraggr. “ ABERDEEN, 20th July, 1867, “Dean Sin, * I beg to thank you for your Latter of 29:h inst. Tt would of course bo impossible to do anything not strietly in accordauce with tha Act. over it appearel to m2 that it woull almit of the Siuking Fund being applied by annual drawings, provided the Loan was extinguished in tweuty years, but vo doubt I am mistaken ia this. * The comparison yon make with other Bonds is perfectly just, nevertheless if any one of those Colo- nies whose Bonds now stanl at 95 were to attempt fresh issue I feel certain they coittd not do so within! five per ceat, of present price af least, Any answer, to your questions must of course ba quite problem-| atical, but I should venture the following coa- jecturos:— ; Ist. The Loan, in its prosent form, would not at the present time be taken above 99), if at that. 2nd. Provided nothing unforeseen take place in the meantime, Tshonld expect an opportunity with- in three or four mouths ef placing the Loan at from 93 a 95. 3rd. Teonsider that if the Loan wera made for ten years, redeemable by annual drawings, it would) go quite as readily at 95 as at 90 in. its present shape, 2 4th. Tho maturity might be arranged to suit the convenience of the Colony, but the shorter the date of payment the fiigher the price the Bonds would be likely to foteh, My father, who is on the spot, will bo able to give you a more reliable opinion of the state of the market, but from all I hoar it is almost impossible to imagive a more untavorable time than the present for an operation of this sort. * Tam, dear Sir, Yours very truly, * A, SCRIMGEOUR.” After receiving this commanication from Mr. Scrimgeour, I again consulted with Mr. Barton, the say, if £5,000 Bonds were drawn each year by lot, and paid off at £100, thus redeeming the whole Loan iu Twenty years as authorized by the Act. “Tha advantage of this plan to the Government iz, that it renders the Sinking Fund self-acting, ob- viating the recessity of investing from year to year, sometimes ata great disadvantage, for a period of twenty years, while to the Bond-holder it is very attractive, as assuming the Bonds to be issued at a discount, it gives him the chance of an almost im- mediate profit on his investment. In cases where the Sinking Fund is arranged in this way the short- er the date at which the Loan expires the better, ten year Bonds would command a better price than twenty years. ; * About this time last year, when things were very dull, we floated a Loan for New South Wales (£850,000) on this plan with great success, and I feel satisfied that it will become more and more general. “ T assume that you will have taken eare to com- ply with the requirements of the Committee of the London Stock Exchange, by having, the Bonds numbered and (he whole series inserted oa the face of the Bonds. You can obtain a Bond at our office if yon require a sample. “From what I hoar, things saom oxtremoly dull in London just now, and T should recommend your waiting a little if practicable. Tam, dear Sir, * Yours truly, “A, SCRIMGEOUR.” T replied to this letter on 26th July last, as fol- lowa :— * Dean Sir, T reogived your letter of 21st instant, and I am much obliged to you for the suggestions respecting, the Loan, contained init, [ quite agree with you that it would be more likely to float to advantage if the Sinking Fund had been applied to the payment of Bonds annually drawn, but as the Act now stands its provisions will wot admit of such an arrangement lanl any issue which takes place would have to be; : | strietly in accordanca with the local statute payable too at twenty years from date. 1 am very desirous if iv can be obtained without too great a disadvan- tage, to raise the Loan at once, becausa I have to return to America on 17th August, aad would like. if, practicable, to complete the matter by that. time. Will you be so kind as to give me your opinion as to the price at which you think the Bonds would now, The Canada, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia Bonds, which are pretty mach in the same form as those I propose to issue, appear to me to bo worth about 964 4 4. Prince Edward Island being in the same groitp of Jolonies, and its: flaancial condition rather better (relatively) it appéfirs to m4 thaa the others, ought, I think, to get as good a price for her Bonds, But what I want your opinion on aro the following points : “Ist What price, in your opinion, would the | Prince Edward Idland Bonds probably obtaic if now put on the market in their preseut form ? *2ad. What prive, rf pat in the market, say two or three mooths hence # ‘Sed. What inerensod price in either case do you consider would be obtained if the Sinking Fund was made appliceblo to an annual discharge. of Bonds by drawings ; and “4th, What increase if ultimate timo for pay- ment should be made in ton instead of tweaty years. “T have seen your father on this matter since
