Error il. above account of ten thousand dollars
ON State Prison contract; it was estimated at one
hundred thousand dollars, whereas it is only nine
ry thousand dollars for this year.
Of the extraordinary appropriations for
1856, that for the State Capitol will hard
iy be touched this year, as the contract is
not yet let. Even when it is, the payments
are to be made in bonds, but no interest is
to be paid upon them under the law, until
sometime next year. The $40, 900 for build
ing a wing to the Insane Asylum will be
expended, as the wing is now being built
The amount paid to suppress Indian hostil-
ties will doubtless be refunded by the Gen
eral Government; that for settling the In
dian war debt at Washington should have
been appropriated by the session Of 1855,
and would have been had that Legislature
discharged fully its duty in the premises
1t is believed by the Controller that the
appropriations Of last year for the ordinary
expenses of the State Government will be
sufficient to cover, with perhaps one or two
exceptions, the expenses they were intended
TO meet If this anticipation is realized,
there will be no deficiency bill called for

of State expenses ior ordinary purposes il

of $743,4l4 75, expended for ordinary pul
poses of the State Government in 1886, o

Appropriations made by the Legislature
of 1855 and 1856.

The following is a statement of the ex-
penses of the State government, for the
years 1855 and 1856. 1t is a true copy of
the record, as furnished from the books of
the Comptroller to the Sacramento Ua10n.
Perhaps no item of so much Importance, and
one so deeply interesting to the taxpayer OF
California, could be laid before the people at
this time. 1t is matter which is referred
to by the politicians and political speakers
of oil parties We therefore publish the
full and complete statement, in order that
our readers and the citizens of all parties
may be able to understand correctly the trae
statement in regard to this important mat
ter.
1t will be understood that the term de-
Jfe,ency means appropriations made by the
Legislature to pay debts against the State
which had accumulated the year previous,
because the Legislature of the preceding
year failed to make its appropriations large
enough to cover the expenses
