can either be asked for by a special vote or included in the estimates for next year.

The omission of the large amount of $135,000 - for Police Buildings, of which #42,188 had been expended, was, I understand, based on the report of a Commission on the future requirements of the Police Force. M. Brown informs me that from a cursory perusal of the late Surveyor General's report on this matter, he is of opinion that the estimate was framed on a somewhat extravagant scale.

Regarding the District school referred to in paragraph 9 of Your Lordship's despatch, I may state that it is one of the Schools mentioned in the estimates for 1889, but it was considered best only to provide for the erection of one District School this year.

I made the following corrections: - Removed extra spaces and corrected spacing issues. - Rejoined broken sentences. - Removed the non-English word "مجھ" as it seems out of context and doesn't make sense in the given text. - Corrected minor punctuation errors. - Formatted the text into proper paragraphs using HTML

tags. - Preserved the original content and made minimal changes to the text.
