2From Alexander Hamilton to the Directors of the Bank of New York, 25 January 1795 (Hamilton Papers)
You were so obliging as to cause it to be intimated that the payment of the loan of two hundred thousand dollars had of your Institution might be deferred if the service of the United States should require it. It will be a great convenience to this Department to avail itself of the permission, so as to defer the reimbursement of the principal of that sum to a year from its commencement. The...
3From Alexander Hamilton to Edmund Randolph, 25 January 1795 (Hamilton Papers)
I have received your letter of the 5th instant. You will find by the inclosed extract of a letter from our Commissioners at Amsterdam, that reliance cannot be had on the success & the measures heretofore taken for procuring the loan at Amsterdam. It is more than possible that subsequent events may have enhanced the difficulty. New expedients must be adopted; but in order to these it is...

It was my intention at the time of the Receipt of your Note of the 20th. of September last, transmitting a letter of the same date from Mr. Jaudenes to you (now returned) to have made you a full and particular communication of the result of my enquiry into the affair.

An instalment of principal of 1.000.000 of Florins of the Dutch Debt is to be paid on the first of June next. Measures are in train to remit from hence; but there is a possibility, that the events of War may interfere with the execution of the arrangement and render it desirable to be able to attempt a postponement by a new Loan. I ask the permission of The President to give an eventual...
8From Alexander Hamilton to Wilhem and Jan Willink, Nicholaas and Jacob Van Staphorst, and Nicholas Hubbard, 25 January … (Hamilton Papers)
I acknowlege the receipt of your letters of the first & twenty sixth of September of the last year.

9From Alexander Hamilton to Oliver Wolcott, Junior, 25 January 1795 (Hamilton Papers)
I have examined the points of which you delivered me a memorandum for consideration. There is no doubt that the monies arising from foreign loans which have been invested in the purchase of Domestic Debt are to be placed to the account of the loan of 2000000 authorised to be made by the Act of the 12th of August 1790 and will exhaust pro tanto the authority thereby given. It is equally clear...
