The debt of Alabama.

--The interest on the foreign debt of Alabama in London has been paid up, and including the dividend due on the 1st inst. The interest annually accruing in London, with eight per cent. exchange added, amounts to $80,370 18. To meet the foreign interest for another year, the State Treasury holds about $70,000 in coin, and the Commissioner recommends a loan of coin from one or more of the banks to cover the deficiency. Alabama is determined to maintain untarnished credit abroad as well as at home.
