"Emigration Contracts", and as we are not aware whether appropriation of the fees has been approved by H. M. Government we think it proper to bring the matter under your Lordships' notice. The fee in question has been brought to account by £4.13.4 as a surcharge for deficit in Hospital Stores: The circumstances under which this surcharge was made are not stated but a letter from the Colonial Secretary is produced giving the Governor's decision that the fee should be reduced to £4.13.4.

The balance in the Treasury throughout the year was largely in excess of £20,000, the limit fixed by the regulations. On the 12th Oct., it amounted to £23,713-13-7 and at the close of the year to £6249-6-0. Upon this subject we beg leave to refer your Lordships to our report No. 1395 of the 27th Oct. 1861.

Should your Lordships be pleased to approve the state of accounts we submit that they be returned to us with warrants authorising the same to be signed and passed.
