EXPLANATORY REMARKS,

3,000.00 This Storage only yielded $7,300 in 1870, and as the receipts of the current year are not in excess, it is considered prudent to make a slight reduction.

The Receipts of 1870 amounted to $10,696, and there is no reason to suppose from the results of 1871, as far as they have gone, that the Estimate of 1872 is too high.
