THE BUDGET.
Mr. Foster said. the rel7011110 as estimated
last year was $30,600,000 the natal
re e nue a es e36, 874, 693, being $120,807
lea than the estimate. Be then enuraer-
*tea the artioles which showed. a deorease
in revenue and those which showed an in-
crease. The total importge including coin
and bullion, we less than the preceding
year by 0, 611,0e7, The dutiable briports
were less by $7,094,889. The total imports
a merchandise were less by 36,099,919;
aud the free imports showed =increase of
$994,470. The causes of the shrinkage
might be classed under three head—e-
duced consumption, shrinkage in value,
In conjunction with the reduction intaxa-
tir,n. In excise, the duty on spirits showed
a decrease of $7,919; malt, a decreases of
$60,840, due to the reduction in the duty;
cigars, an theregiee a e7,666; cigarettes'
an increase of $18,410; tobaceo and snuff,
a decrease a $16,659, Miscellaneous re-
' oeipts showed a decrease of $61,751, but
were still higher than any year since Co-
'' except 1892-3, the deorease
being accounted for by an abnormal fail-
ing off in the revenue from wines, forfeit-
ures, and seizures. 'Under this heading
were Intended the earnings a publio
works, Government railways, and the Post
office, and this formed a very good index
to the state of leasiness and the financial
position of the country. Apart from
revenue from forfeitures, Canada's earn-
ings during 1893-4, when hard times were
prevalent the world over, and. the DOMin-
ion had to bare its share with the rest,
were larger than in any year since Con-
federation. Expenditures during the year
amounted to $37,586,025, an excess over
1892-3 of $770,970. Of this increase 1405,-
707 was due to interest on debt, *35,846 to
the sinking fund, and $270,889 to pro-
vincial subsidies, making a total a 4712,-
442 for statutory charges. The Post-ofdoe
expenditure increased $96,068, and. the re-
ceipts $85,800. The total expenditure up
to the end of the fiscal year would be $38,-
800,000, so that there would be a deficit of
$4,500,000. It was true that the total ex-
penditure up to April of this year had been
larger than for the same period of last
year ,but this could be explained. During
the year the interest on debt had increased
by $179,208; —legislation, including the
revision of the voter's lists, by 4155,566.
The reductions and changes from specific
to ad valorem duties had greatly affected
the revenues. This must be set againet
the deficit of $4,500,000 for 1894-5. For the
present year there would be an:importation
of 310,000,000 paten& a sugar. On the
basis of the duties of 1891 the sum of 44,-
900,000 would accrue to the Government
an this importation, so that one item
would have brought in sufficient to pre-
vent any deficit and. left a small sum for
capital account. The people were able
to keep the sura of five millions in their
pockets, and. the cost of carrying the deet
for the year had been $14,250. If you take

the matter of imports. In 1884 they
sanounted to $109,500,000. Last year they
amounted to 5118,000,000, an increase in
the period of 0,500,000, not taking into
account the decreased prices, and conse-
quently there was an increased volume of
bulk. He declared that the eolwaae of
trade 1n1894, taking export and import,
was as high as in any preceding yea in
the history of Confederation, and that if
prices had been equal to what they were
five years ago even, these trade returns of
last year would be in value what they were
In bulk and volume, the largest of any of
the years which the Dominion had been
carrying on its business. Mr. Foster went
on to show that amidst the stress of hard
times Canada held a foremost paition.
Ple believed that the tide was now turning.
Prices were recovering, confidence was
coming, trade was increasing, the call of
the consumer was strengthening, and
Canada was emerging bete a brightness
and prosperity which would be 'surpassed
by no other period in leer history. He
next compared the trade of Canada with
that of other countries. Taking Great
• Britain the exports of domestic manufac-
tures from that country, -which in 1890
amounted to A263,000,000, bad steadily
decreased until in 1894 they were zaio,-
