As an inducement to the holders of the Brown Consols to exchang_ them for the 4 per cent. honds, let the treasurer be authorized to pay the difference in interesi from the date of exehange up to date of maturity of the Brown Consols, which is July, 1S3, in cash. And if the new bond- cann,t be ex changed at par, then authorizo them to be exchanged at a less simi, but in no case less than ninety-seven dollars per hundred. The difference hetween the sum for which the rew bonds are sold and the par value should also be paid in cash from a fund approp*iated for that purpose.
