lecting from its first Establishment in September 1843 to 31 March 1845.

It is for the Lords Commissioners to consider whether the surplus which has since that date accrued should go towards the liquidation of the arrear, or be used in abatement of the Vote to be taken either on that account, for the service of future years or be otherwise appropriated.

Elwell Spry is desirous that the accounts should be definitively adjusted by whatever process, to the 31st March 1848, as suggested by Mr Bouhan's Despatch of the 8th May, in order that for the future any unexpended surplus of the Parliamentary Vote of any year may be regularly carried to the Account of Colonial Ways and Means for the next; an arrangement which, in W. T. Lewis's opinion, would serve to prevent that confusion in the accounts, and that misapprehension as to the real state of the Finances of this Colony which has of late caused so much perplexity.
