JAMES B. HEYWOOD,
Secretary to the Treasury.

R. B. VINCENT,
Acting Accountant to the Treasury.

The foregoing accounts have been examined and found correct, subject to the following remarks:—
(1.) The Customs, Railways, and Territorial Revenue receipts are not now examined by the Audit Office.
(2.) The Audit Office is unable satisfactorily to verify the receipts of gold revenue, through the failure of the Mines Department to comply with a requisition for a certified statement of the amounts collectible as such revenue.
(3.) The Treasury Cashier, out of moneys issued to him by way of Imprest under Appropriations, paid and advanced, for expenditure to be charged to the State Coal-mines Account, £2,200 17s. 7d. for which there was at the time no appropriation.

J. K. WARBURTON,
Controller and Auditor-General.

It is only necessary to remark, in reply to the above, that the sum mentioned in No. 3 represented claims of a very urgent nature, and the amount was paid in the interest of the public convenience.

R. J. SEDDON,
Colonial Treasurer.
