the recommend that acting upon the recommendation of the Commission, I have purchased this property for fifty-two thousand dollars.

This sum of $52,000 is

1876, and the remaining twenty-seven thousand dollars will

be placed on the Supplementary Estimates of the same

year.

$10,000 and thirty thousand dollars have

been voted in the Estimates

Your Lordships will be glad to learn that the Colony will in all probability be

already been made.

I trust, therefore, that
