The Agents General must I presume be instructed to supply the Coke. On the 2d March 1861 the Govr was desired to remit funds to the Agents here for the purpose of meeting payments of this nature, but we have not heard that he has done so. If not it will be necessary to request the TreasuryManuscript image to pay for the Coke in the first instance as an advance to the Colony?
