BONS DE DEUX TIERS,

Is paper issued for the purpose of reimbursing the reduced two-thirds

of the National Debt, and in the origin rendered applicable to the

purchase of national houses and estates in the French Colonies, since

ordered to be funded at five per cent; so that the price of this

species of paper is entirely subordinate to that of the _Tiers

Consolidé_ and supposing that to be 60 francs per cent, the _Bon de

deux Tiers_ would be worth 3 francs. There are no hopes, however

distant, that the government will ever restore the _Bons de deux

Tiers_ to their original value.
