Now that nearly $25,000 were saved on various heads of Estimate, the two largest items being due to the reductions effected by Mr Forth (the Treasurer's) retirement and the abolition of the Auditor's office as a separate office: On the other hand the excess votes on other heads amount to $98,242, & provision for this is made in the covering ordinance.
This $98,000 is made up of (besides minor items): Surveyor General's Department $22,600; this is principally for the salary of an acting Surveyor General, role appointed and they were practically sanctioned after Mr. Buckle's was abolished. Medical Department $7,930; this is principally part of the excess cost of medicines for military patients.
(1) $1,600 excess cost of medicines for patients at the Civil Hospital (2) $6,400 for apothecary of military hospital; no vote is included in the Estimates for this military hospital, as the Colony pays the original Estimates for this hospital as a military contribution.

Miscellaneous net excess $15,000 principally composed of grants to widows of certain public Officers which were reported home and sanctioned about $5,000; & $11,000 for repairs in and out of certain ecclesiastical Buildings for Mahometan and the ecclesiastical grants turned as in the usual payments in and were commented on in the Quarterly Return, but subsequently sanctioned.
I may say, was due to the $2,000 for the Mahometan cemetery which the Cape Treasury paid under Ordinance No 8 of 1867, the Ordinance Treasury joy to grant $2,000 dollars, the I.O. despatch hereby recites that B.M. has been pleased to confirm the Ordinance.
It says "I approve of the expenditure of $2,000 which has been incurred"; but I suppose it never was actually paid at the time.
