proposals and state whether he found that he
could recommend them, or make such proposals
as he might deem feasible in order to reduce
the original estimates, taking for his guide that
it is only such work that is most necessary
which is now to be done. The Inspector has
then sent in a proposal, on which the Govern
ments amendments are based. 1t will be seen
that the Committee and the Inspector agree in
2 main points, namely the necessity Of the al
t@erations etc. at the Prison and the Sick-House,
estimated at a cost of 81 ,516, and the postpone
ment of the work at the wharf in ChristianSted
estimated at a cost Of $1,000; but as regards
the poStpOnement of this work, the Government
must reserve to propose eventually an addition
al grant for that work, as the state of the wharf
is such, that it might become necessary to do
something to it in the course of the year, and
as the view expressed in the Committee, that
the present bullwark might be entirely demo
IiShed, caRscarceIy be a right one, because the
surrounding locality consists of made land.
But in reference to minor points there is cOnsid-
cradle difference of opinion between the Com
mittee and the Inspector he considers several
of the Committees reductions inadvisable, al
lowing even that only the most necessary things
are to be done, while as regards some other
items again, he thinks that the Committee has
proposed more than necessary. The frStmen-
toned opinion refers to the repairs 0fthe western
platform over the gallery in FrederikSted's Hos
pital, which the Building Inspector proposes
should be done by taking up the upper layer
of bricks and relaying them in cement, for
which purpose $73. IA were calculated, while the
Committee considers it sufficient to point the
tiles. The Inspector has explained, that expe-
rience in similar cases has shewn, that the
, 1870-06-21

wasted. On the other hand the Inspector has
merely proposed that the roOfOf Easthil- School
house be patched, which he considers sufficient;
the Committee recommends the whole roof to
be ~shingled, without, however, proposing any
amount for that purpose, the intention being,
no doubt, that the amount should be betrayed
from the sum of $500 for casual repairs or for
exceedings of the estimates. But in this respect,
as also in respect to the other items in the
Committees report where certain works are
proposed to be transferred to that item of $500,
it must be observed, that such a procedure
would not be consistent with the object for
which such sum for the whole year has been
found necessary, and it would thereby become
insufficient. Ihe foregoing will explain the
differences between the proposals from the
Committed and the Buiiding-lnSpeCt0r, and the
reason why the latest estimate from this official
is 30 much below the former one. The amend
ment proposed by the Government that the
item sub No 3 be reduced from $4,000 to SO, 200
is also intended to meet the wishes of the
Council and the Committee for all possible re
duction in the expenditure. Under ordinary
circumstances this aforementioned amount is
considered sufficient.
The 3rd member for Christiansted's town
