on the Opium Barm, I remarked that the anticipated Revenue of $2,144,178 would not be poured, but that we might expect about $2,030,178. The ordinary expon. diture was estimated at $1,773,918, leaving a possible surplus of $266,300. It appears likely that the total receipts for 1803 will be about $2,067,216. Of this snu, bow- orer, at least $60,000 is due to the rodno- tion of the arrears of taxes optatanding at the end of 1881, through their energetic collection by the Treasurer's Department also been received from the Milltary daring the current year. $20,000 has Authoriting for the Lazaretto Thoma sums, the latter being purely a casual receipt, cannot be rogarded as Actual Revenue, though they come within the year's receipia. The asme may also be said Former but deducting the two first lords of the deferred payments of the Opium from the $9,037,316 bafore mentioned, we find that the tens Revenue of 1899 will be $1,957,210, approximately, or B83,300 lonx than was estimated by me on the 25th January last..
The Estimate of Expenditure for 1892 PAA as follows
Ordinary Exponditare $3,773,018, Pablic Works Extraordinary $630,078, making a total of $2,453,908,
The Ordinary Expenditure will be about $1,782,000 and Public Works Extraordin ary $583,000, making a total of $2,365,000. Supposing $4,087,216 to be the actual re ceipt of 1898 and 22,355,000 the total Ex penditure, Ordinary and Extraordinary, we have a doticit on the year's transsotions of $207,784. On the other hand allowing that the ordinary Revonue, as distinct from ficceipts, is 81,997,216 and the Ordinary Expenditure $1,782,000 we find that there
