less extraordinary resources tcCur, it could
not be expected thai that amount of Reeve
nue could be surpassed III years to come;
therefore, we must proceed from that
amount of revenue in future when prppar-
ing our financial calculations. The Deficit
on the Budget will he about $780, Oh, bui,
as stated by His EXcellrnry, the amount
for the Factory guarantee, $45,0 0p, will no
doubt not be called for now, nor ears to
come; when we see the good results alrea-
dy arrived at, he believed it e uld be fully
expected that the Factory will be able to
pay its own liabilities. In that way the
deficit on the Budget would be brought
down to about $35, 00J. He was confident
from all what he had heard from The Au-
thOritieS, and as moreover 1t Is dictated
also by equity, that the Community Will
be relieved Of the burthen of The Military
Expenses. These expenses are Z morally
about $4,000 a year, out OF THAI amount,
as the status of the Island is at present.,
the Community is not able to bear more
than $4,000. However, We cannot lrglS
late for the MotherC"uutry, but he WAS
convinced that the Ministry will do all III
their power to get the Diet to pas the ne
ceSsary grant to thai effect, and that such
grant will he given, except, iIdrrIl. it he
the intention t. abandon the Island, which
would never be donr. H. could but thank
his EXCplIencN Tor the aNSUi aIlte given
that the Council had always been ready to
reduce the expenditure Of HE Island, and
had never been wiling to induce the Gov
ernment to increase Of expenditure. The
Budget Committees have always carefully
gone through the different branches ot the
public expenditure, to fnd out where say
lngS could he made without weakening the
Administration and he WHS convinced
that the Council or the eventual Commit
tee will go through the expenses now
again and see if further savings can not be
effected. He hoped thai The AdminlStra-
ton would not keep back in that respect,
and in 80 far as Suggestions or remarks
from former Budget Commuters have not
hitherto been followed "r acted upon. tliey
might be taken under + ntwrd conSiderI-
ton. There are also from other quarters
snggestions before he Government in re-
ference to some particular branches of
public expenditure, and where something
too might he done by the Government.
AS items that could bear some further px-
animation, he would now mrution he
Prison Department, and the Military De
partment on the latter tenn we have Of
late avoided entering; but although tech
nical experience might not he present, still
there are no doubt some items, such as the
expenditure for ammunition and articles Of
inventory etc. which appear high, and
which, with the assistance of Govcrnm mt
might be reduced any how, there might
be good reason to go through those items
