W. 11. Williams, at a oost of £76 ss. 3d. The Es
• chair' painted, costing £l5 17s. The Esplanade
chains repaired and painted at an expense of about £l2 ;
and the Russian min painted, stone post ereAed, and
the old Townhall painted. With respect to your
fin&II01311, it appears the balance due to the treasurer on
the let September last was £2ll 7s. 9d., and we do not
see bow this can be materially reduoed during the current
year on the present income of about £360 per annum.
Your present tradesmeo's debts, and the interest due on
the Money borrowed, amount to about £l5O, which we
Mcommended to be paid.

plans be adopted to obtain the money to pay off the
amount due from this fund, to Mr. Welsford's !mitoses,

£744 Is. 2d., making together £2,244 6a. 2d. First,

wording to • plan to be produced. This land, it is
suggested, can be obtained by filling up some part of the
present frontage, and erecting • quay wall, .11 01 which
it is estimated will test more than £3OO. Your com-
mittee will leave, for the determination of the' Council,
whether the lead shall be let atones, as it now stands,
for the above term, for the most money that can be
obtained with all its liabilities with a nominal ground
