43Treasury Department Circular to the Commissioners of Loans, 6 October 1790 (Hamilton Papers)
The alteration of one of the proposed instructions for conducting your Office rendered an addition of a Column for Certificates of the Register of the Treasury necessary in the form M.

49Treasury Department Circular to the Commissioners of Loans, 30 November 1790 (Hamilton Papers)
A danger to the United States has been suggested from the Certificates for transfer from the Treasury to the several Loan Offices and from one Loan Office to another or to the Treasury. It is observed that the writing, which is expressive of the rate of Interest , and that which is expressive of the time when interest will accrue are capable of being taken out as in the case of Pierces Notes...
