I have placed among the Parliamentary grants the two Sums amounting to £20,000 voted in 1857 and 1858 but as they are on account of special objects and not for the ordinary services of the Colony I may state that the Imperial expenditure should be estimated at Nil since 1854, on average over the five years of my Government it amounts to £880 per annum in contrast to an average of £5.

The total Income of the Colony (including Parliamentary Grants) presents an average augmentation of £11,528, being about 30 per cent, but taking the last year of the two periods, the Difference in favor of the second is £26,561 or more than 70 per cent.
With reference to Population increase it has been 16,340 for the five years preceding.
