THE ARMY ESTIMATE".

The Army Estimates for the year 1857-58 have
followed closely on those for the navy. The sum
total required to be voted for the service of the
ensuing financial year (1857-58) amounts to
11,225,5331., of which 8,993,6581. goes for the
effective, and 2,231,875/. for the non-effective. The
difference or reduction of the estimates, as compared
with last year (1856-57), amounts to no less than
9,023,551/., of which 9,015,2021. is under the
" effective " branch of the service. The original
estimate for 1856-57 amounted to the enormous
sum of 34,998,5041., although this was reduced to
20,249,084/. on a revision (peace having been de-
clared early in the year) ; and accordingly the
full extent of the reduction, if we compare the esti-
mates for the ensuing year with the original ones
of last, will be 23,772,9711, or the difference be-
tween 34,998,5041. and 11,225,5331.
The actual reduction, we have said, amounts to
9,023,5511., or the difference between 11,225,5331.

clude a decrease of 2,045,973/. under the head

of warlike stores for land and sea service ; a de-
crease of 899,680/. under the head of fortificatons,
civil buildings, and barracks ; and a decrease of
12,160/. under the head of the educational and
scientific branches.

There is an increase of 61,8131. included in three
heads under the non-effective heads, viz., 9051. for
rewards, 49,6121. for the pay of reduced and re-
tired officers, and 11,2901., for out-pensions. The
total collateral decrease is 70,1621., viz., 4,006/.
for pay of general officers, 30,042/. for widows' pen-
sions, &c., 35,695/. for pensions, &c., to wounded
officers' 155/. for in-pensions, and 264/. for super-

and 553,0551. for miscellaneous charges under this
head ; 7,1231. for volunteer corps ; 185,6041. for the
