This account, it will be seen, is a pert only of the pre-

ia-
eome and expenditure of (be year; bat this account being
confined to 'mystical, into and out of the Exchequer, mid

progress to the Exchequer, can be prepared at a very early
period after the bth of January, the and of the linaactsl year,
and this being the account which will be pretested to Parlia•
meat at the crunnseecenreirt ef each Illesise, in perseitece of
the provisoes ef the Act of the Ist and td Gee. IV. c. 141,
your Committee recommend that it 'beam be again pretreated
with the aeries of 6 'cousins for the sake of perspi-
cuity. and to atoll mistakes.

6tbly. Au aerator, 'hewing, os owe side, the balance I.
the Exchequer, at the beginning of the year, and the amount
raised in the course of the year by the creation of funded or
unfunded debt ; sod on the other side the amount of funded
sod onfonded debt paid off is the Pease of the year, and
the baleace remaining ia t►e Exchequer at the end of the
year.
Is is evident that the balance of this account must be ohs
same as that chews by the Iwo precediag 'crowds; god this
account, together 0114 No. I of thin Class, exhibit the
whole of she pecuniary tr doss of the country, withiu
the year.
These two accounts, namely—No. 4, and No. d, might
have bees combined 11110 our, but your Committee are in-
clined to *bask that they are better divided into two; the
trausactioos to which they relate are different in these ea
tore, the one referring to the expenditure fur public services,
the other to the minima sad payment of debt; mad as die
balance of each of she two accatais ought to be the same,
they mutually check and confirm omit other.
Clam I I I.CONSOLIDATID FUND contain

7thly—silm account of the income of the Cons. Waled

of the actualparommts monde us account of the Consolidated
Fund within the same pelted.

Bthly—An account, ;bowing, on one side, flee money ap-
plicable to the payment of the charge upon the Consolidated
Fad within the year; and en the other aide, the charge:
which have became dee epos the Fund, within the year, ni-
ckeling the amount of Exchequer bills dialoged upon the
food at the begiuniug and end of the year.
It will be sera. that be first of these accounts will slow
the Reseal receipts and payments within the year; the se.
rend, the Income due, sad the charges incurred daring liast
same period.
Your Committee think it right to observe, that the ace!
count of the Coowalidated Fund, hitherto presented, although
prepared in the form uttommeutied by the Guniosittee of
1797, does sot appear to he in strict conformity with 11)9
letter of the Act of the 42d George 111., under which thesd
accounts ere presented ; that Act imure* au account of thd
Connelidatioi.Fued of Great Britxi• tut the year, and also 04'
the actual payments then:oat within the same year, and of thit
future asmaial charge spin. the same food am the mane steed on
that day; bat your Commiture hare been iuforosed, that the
column is the present account which is beaded as the eolunan
of "Actual Parreiets within the veer," caimans, sums which
roma* of the intuit payments is the brat three quarter. of
the year, and the chary. instead of the actual payments of
the fourth quarter.
Your Committee propose, that theme three Classes should
succeed each other without otterropi ins. and that the Au-
peuthwee of the whole should thee follow : by Ibis arrange-
meat the same Appeadix may be wade to answer more HMI
our I rt.-fence, and repesitiors of the lame matter will thus
be avoided.
Your Committee have been anxione that all the Appendixes
should be made out es Dearly as possible twos a similar
uniformity to this respect being highly conducive to perspi-
cuity.

The Appendixes will be the following:—
