The contributors to that loan, were al lowed an annual interest of four per cent on the sums they had been obliged to lend; certain branches of the public revenue were assigned for the payment of that interest; and a corpo ration, entitled the chamber os loans, was created for the express purpose of looking after this business, managing those branches of the revenue assigned to the lenders and attending to, and securing the punctual payment of the interest, as it fell due.
