Expenditure to £34,635,0.1; the Revenue being in excess of that for 1859 by £2,344. 17. 18, and the Table of expenditure showing a reduction of $1,783, 1, 11.5.

  1. This result must be considered most satisfactory.

As regards Military Expenditure the payments made by the Commissariat and Ordnance Departments are stated together at £41,540, 11.10. being $8,815.19.7. less than during the previous year.

  1. The outlay on account of Public works amounts to $238,127. of which £3,262,3, 10. was expended on Government House, now close to its completion. The total amount is under that of last year by £633.11.

The number of Convicts at labour on the roads has exceeded that of 1859, and more work has consequently been obtained from them.

  1. Six Ordinances have passed the Legislative Council during the year; one to meet a temporary object by raising an additional Police Rate, another to regulate the markets, and three having reference to the Supreme Court. The sixth respects the unclaimed Balances of Intestate estates, and is again under consideration of the Council.
