My Lord,
Government House, Victoria, Hong Kong,
10th April, 1848.
Referring to my predecessor's Despatch No. 104 of the 24th September last, I now beg to forward a revised Estimate of the Expenditure and Revenue of this Colony from the 1st of this month to the 31st March, 1849.
The Treasurer's letter and its enclosures will show that the receipts may be expected to amount to £61,200, and that the estimated disbursements, exclusive of any expenditure for Tanks and Central Police Station, will amount to £71,944; and that if all the buildings now in progress be completed, and others that have been sanctioned be commenced upon, there will be a deficiency of means.
