- .tFhe, iNpsuEe, with. reference to the re-
mAfk"'fr6m Els ExcellenCy, that no regard
had baeH taken tothe information conveyed
70 the. Committee, hewonld beg to say, that
! s4Re Committee had thoroughly consider.
ED the INFORMATION so received from His
Exc9ll8ncy' as far as the Committee could
: See, there could have been question only
''of:such amendments to the Bill, as would
be, aceepted by the Minister; but then the
Committee, could not see what Amend.
mepts it could propose that would have
met the wishes Of the Council, or which it
could recommend. to the Council to adopt.
The great difficulty was to arrive at a
balance between the Municipal Revenue
and Expenditure under the new Budget,
and it was conceded on all sides that the
chief item of revenue on the budget, viz
the Export Duty, is much too varying an
item on a budget like ours viii be, and
hence the Colonial Council must be slow to
accept such d budget. His Excellelncy says
the figures given by the Committee are
incorrect as far as the Committee knows,
those figures are correct, because they are
those given In the respective Budgets,
which must be presumed to be- correct as
furnished by Government. Anyhow, if
the Committee is mistaken, it is for the
Council to show how the Committee has
erred. His Excellency says further, that
even if the Military and some other ex-
penses be assumed by the State Treasury,
that would not be sufficient to avoid hav-
ing deficits on the budgets also in future ;
but the Committee is of a different opinion:
the Committee believes that if those items
be taken over, then the Colonial Treasury
will be able to cover it's expenses. The
power of the Colonial Council is in prac.
tice SO limited, that he (the Speaker could
not see now the Minister could wish to
limit it still further; and what speaks in
favour of giving the Council some vote, if
only a consultative voice, lin reference to
the expenses which tue State Treasury
will defray for the Colony, is the fact that
the greatest part of the Revenue to meet
them is collected by the State Treasury
