On the 17th of January, driven by necessity, it passed a resolution authorizing the President to issue notes to the amount of $100,000,000 to pay the arrears due to the soldiers. But it was only on the 3d of March, just as it was about to adjourn, that Congress voted the laws required by the Secretary of the Treasury in order to meet the current expenses until the 1st of July, 1864. We have stated that the deficiency of 1862-63 was estimated at $300,000,000— that of 1863-64, at $600,000,000. Co...ngress authorized a double issufe of six per-cent. bonds, cor- responding with these two figures, the total amount being $900,000,000. These bonds, being payable after ten years and before the expiration of the fortieth year, were commonly known by the name of " ten-forties." But at tliLS diite^ the 3d of March, the arrears amounted to $72,171,189 : they increased much more rapidly than the returns from the loan placed on the market. It was necessary, there- fore, to procure temporary relief while waiting for the negotia- tion of the loan.
