 The Colonial Currency, Prices, and Exchange Rates
Colonial paper currency, generally called bills of credit, was issued on two bases: on the credit of the colony supported by tax funds, and on loan.
The existing colonial price indices based upon the prices of a few commodities bought or sold in foreign commerce are in no way indicative of the general price level.10 The colonial prices of such commodities depend predominantly upon the conditions of supply and demand in foreign markets and on the rate of exchange.
In the case of New England and the Middle colonies, where direct trade between the colonies and Britain was at a minimum, it was necessary for the colonies to have recourse to a roundabout trade to procure the necessary bills of exchange and specie to pay their adverse balances with Britain.

Though not in parliament he was appointed colonial secretary and minister for railways in the Mitchell government in May 1919, a fortnight later was elected a member of the legislative assembly, and exchanged the portfolio of colonial secretary for those of mines, industries and forests.
Governor Brisbane opposed his suggestion that "government reserves" should be considered church and school lands, and with regard to land generally, comparatively little of it had even been surveyed.
When the colony was passing through a troublesome time in 1892 the suggestion was made that he should come back to the legislative assembly and lead a coalition government, but the state of his health would not permit him to do this.

 The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society
The most serious losses occurred among the executive records of the English colonial period, the Sir William Johnson manuscripts, the Clinton papers, the Tompkins papers and the early Senate papers, which stood in a double-faced case and were exposed to the fire on both sides.
Another colonial military source completely lost in the fire was 39 rolls of the Provincial Militia 1745-60, purchased by the Library in 1906 (1911 list, 431).
Examples from the colonial period are financial records of the Treasurer and quit rent accounts; records of boundary disputes between New York and New England (which extend into the post-revolutionary period); and records relating to shipmasters and shipping.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Reductions of Paraguay
The neglect of the Spanish governors to come to the aid of the missions in their peril was bitterly avenged by the subsequent destruction of the Spanish colonies in Guayra, by the Portuguese, and the loss of the entire province.
The governors confirmed the new officials in the Reductions after the annual elections, as also the newly appointed curas belonging to the Society of Jesus; they made regular official visits to the Reductions, and sent reports to the king regarding their visitations.
Controversies with the governors arising in consequence of unjust encroachment were always adjusted through the royal audiencia in Charcas, by royal inspectors or by investigating committees, especially named and appointed by the king himself.

 Chapter 1: The Original Source of Sovereignty   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Therein the "United Colonies" were declared to be "free and independent States"; but even then the object plainly was not to declare their independence of one another or of the Union, but directly the contrary, as their mutual pledge and their mutual action before, at the time, and afterward, abundantly show.
First, the issue of whether the Congress represented the people in their direct sovereign capacity and not the regular colonial governments, is entirely distinct from that of whether the sovereign people thus represented were the peoples of the several colonies, or of the nation as a whole.
For example on June 9, 1775, the Continental Congress resolved that, given the illegitimacy of the Act of Parliament altering the charter of Massachusetts Bay, and the actions of the royal governor in subversion of that charter, the governor of that colony be considered absent (overtones of 1689).

 Chapter 2: Praetorian Politics in Liberal Spain
Rankers were promoted into a separate reserve list, which supplied lieutenants when shortages occurred without posing a threat to the career opportunities of the middle-class officers on the active list.
The separate promotion lists were jealously guarded by the regular officers, for they successfully reduced the competition for state employment, traditionally the preserve of the Spanish middle class.
The results were readily apparent in the colonial wars of the 1890s, where the principal cause of the Spanish defeat was administrative incompetence, poor training and equipment, and low morale.

 Complete List of NYS Attorneys General
Between 1684 and 1777, the Colonial Attorneys General were appointed by the King of England, or the Colonial Governors on the Crown's behalf.
Until 1702 he was appointed by the governor, after which he was commissioned by the Crown.
By the Constitution the governor was required to do the appointing with the "advice and consent of the council." But in practice it subordinated the governor to the council whenever a majority of the assembly was politically opposed to him, and the annual election of the council greatly increased chances of such opposition.

Colonial currency was far from being the only component of the money supply.

Virginia was the last of the continental colonies to have recourse to bills of credit, being forced thereto by the demands of the French and Indian War.
