With regard to this comparison, it is to be remarked 

 that the actual amount of cash on hand the last of 

 December, 1787, was 680,565 fl. 8 kr. 3 hi. Since, 

 however, at this time the various sums owed by the 

 military chest amounted to 69,859 fl. 22 kr. 4 hi. more 

 than all the available balances due, it was not possible 

 to reckon as actually on hand more than what remained 

 after deducting the amount of these debts (which had 

 to be paid immediately afterward); namely, 610,705 fl. 

 45 kr. 7 hi. 



On the other hand, the actual amount of money on 

 hand the last of December, 1791, would have been 

 very much greater if the chests at Manheim and Dus- 

 seldorf had not been almost entirely exhausted by the 

 execution of Liege. 



With regard to the extra expenses incurred since 

 1787, the following remarks may be offered: —
