ing distress, And praying for the adoption of eco-
nomy. The Hon, haFonet hoped that, however

sweeping vote that any saving could be practically
effeeted, but by an aggregate reduction of small
sups. Hitherto only 1,5001. had been redticed
in Oita manner, but he hoped that the voice of
the people would have a further effect.
