and the mass of blood being rendered foul, it is incapable of af-
fording a healthy supply of nourishment to enable the functions
of life to be properly and actively performed. As is remedy

WILLIAM BRAGOE,
Office of Barrack Accounts, 20th April, 1812.

Office of Barrack Accounts prior fo 1805.
April 33, 1812.
Sia,—ln addition to the Return to the Order of
the Honourable Committee,which is herewith sent, we
beg leave to observe, that much of our tithe has been
occupied with the Builder's Accounts; and some of
them have received all the examination, and have
been charged with the whole of the disallowances we
can apply to them, but have not been presented for
declaration, in consequence of a question raised by
the Barrack Surveyors, and which is yet undecided,
whether those Accounts are to be re-opened by us,
after the examination they have had by those Sur-
veyors. .
In general, the accounts of General De Lancey
have been delivered to us in a stale that requires more
than ordinary time and tronhle to reduce to order,
as much of them, particularly of the expenditure by
Barrack Masters, has not been examined or arranged
by the Officers under his directions. These diBicul.
ties, together with the want of strength in the com-
mencement, and of experience in the persons at the
establishment of a new office, have rendered our la.
boirs less productive than, •from the time that has
been given to them, they ought to have been. Beside
this, we have, under the direction of the Board of
Treasury, madelleveral Reports to their Lordships ;
in consequence of which some prosecutions, both civil
and criminal, have been instituted.
Some of these difficulties now exist no longer, ard
• others are much lessened; so that we have every ma.
I son to expect and believe that the final settlement ( f
the remaining accounts will be greatly more accele-
rated than those which have preceded.
We have further to observe, that the accounts of
Mr. Alexander Davison, Sub.-Accountant, are set-
tled, usfat iidepencla on our examination of them,
and are-in the hands of our Secretary to be put into
Exchequer form fdr declaration by the Aqditors of
Public Accounts at the next Midsun'..r.-..e:
Mr. Davison • has already repaid to• the Publ;o
.111,8831. 13s. Id. and asuit has for some time beau
instituted in. the Court of Exchequer against him, for
the sum of 27,4961. 17s. U. for interest, with which
he stelae charged o►► our examination. •
In addition to these,-we have reason to exp•ct that
a large sum will remain•charged against Mr. Davison,
eta the final audirof his accounts.

" General De Laney had ae allowance 441. per
per day granted to him, in 1804, for his firmer ser.
vices, In addition to 21. per day, which he was to con.
tinue to receive as retired Barrack Master General;
both these allowanees have been assigned fn trustees,
who receive them, from time to time, as they become
due and invest the same in Exchequer Bills, in trust,
to pay an)• balance which may be found to be due
from him to the Public, upon the final settlement of
his accounts.

" General.De Lancey is also Colonel of the 17th
Regiment of Light Dragoons."

The balance due from the late Mr.Goldsrnid, and
the present state of that business, are sufficiently ex-
hibited in the following Papers, your Committee not
deeming it necessary to swell the bulk of their Re-
port by printing the Treasury Minutes referred to,

Chancellor of the Exchequer, of the whole matter,
as connected with the general credit of the country.
