in the public exvenditura dering the years it is rather unusual, we imagine, to effect any saving under this heading. The abisf oatie- faction to be derived from a persual of Mr. Brewanna report, however, is, not much that a saving has been effected in or penditure, as that the revenue is again showing signs of expamaina. The original estimate of revenue for 1885 was $1,212,188, but owing to the decline in the receipts daring the latter part of 1884, this was re- duced to $1,187,558. It is now anticipated that the receipts will amount to $1,202,751, which is $65,193 more than was expected and only $9,437 less than the original estimate. When the reduction was made in the latter there were gand grounde for it, as the ra venue, which in 1868 was $1.280,443, fell in 1884 to $1,173,071, the falling off taking place chiefy is the latter part of the year,
