The Expenditure of 1881 I estimate at $986,422, which leaves an estimated surplus of $98,241.

The Estimates for the Supreme Court are framed in accordance with the general instructions contained in Sir Michael Hicks Beach's Despatch No. 141 of 24 October 1879.

I have not inserted in these Estimates the details of the Interpretation Department, as it will be my duty to submit them separately, in a further despatch, for Your Lordship's consideration. Should these details be sanctioned, it will cause a slight modification of the present Estimates.
