For the more perfect elucidation of these abuses we refer to the distribution of the Colonial Expenditure, as seen at page 115.

Every item requires complete supervision: but that this colony, which it is said cannot afford to introduce 1,000 free British emigrants, should pay 9,7301. to a very worthy body of pensioners is manifestly unjust to the colony and to the poor of England. Look at it in another viewthat the pensions equal in amount those two important items, public works and public roads. In the year 1842, when 11,1617. was swalloewd up by pensioners, and when Lord Stanley was unable to appropriate nothing for emigration, the sum total laid out for roads was 6127. for the Eastern Province, and 4,754/. for the Western; public buildings, 1,8607. Eastern Province and 5,0817. Western; total, 12,3077. Who can

wonder at the backwardness of the colony! Who will not rather wonder at its advancement!
