Geten.tatglt,-I beg to submit here-
with a stateuma$ in detail of the receipts
and expenditures of the pest year.
2slt•tement of !cadger Balencee on 31st
Deer., statement of collection. from non
me lards, statement d Stskung Funds
of Stealing Gravel read debentures, sad
Northern Greed !lead debentures, and
(,om erative.tateeseat of the estimated
and actual espeediture of the year 1880.
In accordance with my pectin to past
years, I may call you attention to the
most important discrepancies between
the estimated and actual expenditure.
The estimate ger ad•tinistrstu,. a
Justice was $1,9u0. The expeaditere
has been $1,4119.90. The estimate was
based, not alone upuu the expenditure
of 1879, which had been much lees than
for some years before, as shown in my
letter aooempsnying the financial state-
ments of that year, but upon the sesame I
lion that W year 1879 was e:oeptiui ualfy
low, and that as irerethi
ee. ander s
hand might be expected to 1880.
It is gratifying however to see that the
emit of this servtoe, whisk is to seine ex-
tent • measure of the amount of crime in
the County, has leen tet only below the
estimate, but 6140 has than even in 1879.
The expenditure for Inquests also has
been less than the amount estimated by
$69.31. The estimate being $160, and
turd the nett expenditure chargcahle to
the oonnty over and above the amount
received from Government, $80.60.
Gaol expenditure has very closely ap-
r•nrximeted to the estimate, which woe
$1,600. The nett worst charged to the
County was 01661.11.
Jury expenses Bate bison 11ess than the
alw,oefnt esUIII btk •• by $994. The
aateent of se to under this head
in 1974 Mal and in 1879, $3,623.
In 'raw of th .Nfatie. of an-
ticipated under the operation of the new
Art, the ettinmte'filr 1880 was placed at
62,600. A reduction of $700 out the
,wean of the previous two years' expendi-
ture, but the astral amount paid has
been only $t,975, and this include. $100
paid to County seleoto.s fur selecting the
jury liets of 1881, which in the former
years had net been paid until the be-
ginning of the year fur which the selec-
tion wee made. The Jury account for
1880, contains the coat of selection for
both 1880 and 1881. For the
orftherefore the itare
of '1180 b be taken as 32,275.
Shies& Rlb>vrllgst•sot has ezoseded the
amount estimated by $902. The amount
cbsrged to this women in 1890, includes
3172.50, quanta's salary to Mr. Dewar,
Inspector, for 1879, which belongs to that
year, but which was not presented for
payment until 1800. Secluding this,
tb expenditure would only have over-
run the estimate by 330.
Lunatics and Charitim have also ex-
ceeded the estimate by360.69. In 1879
11
the expenditure wan 496. In 1880 the
amount estimated was 3600. The
amount paid has been $560.69. Of this
.13S.b4 is for the keep of indigent.,
a44 $184.50 has been paid for medical
and judges' certificates of lunacy, and
$343.59 for ceaveyaaa o of lunatics to
amylums. The samba of lunation whose
ouaysyance to the asylum was paid fur
in 1879, was six. In 1880 there has
been ten. The cod of conveying the six
in 1879 was $.65. The cost for the
ten in 1880 was but $243.69. The re-
duced expense of this service is owing to
the new system provided by the Act of
1880 -which went into operation in
March last -under which the convey-
ance of lunatics to the asylums and boys
to the Reformatory is performed by
Provincial bailiffs ininead of by the
Sheriff, as formerly. Under the new
Act the actual disbursements of the bai-
liffs are paid by the Government and
collected from the counties, together
with 60 per cent. added thereto to cover
the bailiffs' salaries. By the detailed
statement you will see that $91.94 has
been paid to the Provincial Treasurer,
for the conveyance of lunatic under
this system. Five lunatics were thus
ooareyed--four to London and ene to
Uamiltun. The average for each of
thew is *18.30. The average for those
conveyed in 1878 and 1879 by the Sheriff
under the old system was 334.
The amount charged to ''Solarise and
Council nee,- bas been $800 lees thsuo
the amount placed in the estimates.
The amount paid to members of the
Council for attendance and mileage, has
been 377 lees than in 1879, owing tab the
absence of some member" front some of
the meetings. There have also been no
meetings of Comtttittees a Council in
1880, for which 387.20 was paid in 1879,
and the payments to the Road Commis-
sioner", formerly charged to this account,
have in the past year been debited to
"Reads and Bridges,' to which a000tmt
I think these charges mon properly be-
long.
"Repairs of County Buildings.' were
eetirat•d for at $300, but only $40.86
has been expended for this purpose.

dun no higher rate would 1 hertal t. r
be paid ea this 313,000. As you we
aware, I bays always been ublibe 1 iu
former years to borrow from the haul
to enable me to ppa•y the last half -yearly
St
enepoas on the erinsg debentures, and
k meet the current expenditures of the
latter part of the year. Instead of doing
w this year I has a used them special t e-
pwits for this put-poee, and have by that
means been able to'meet all the domande
of the year without dta000nting any put
br. There are still no debentures to baa
.d at :my ewu.nabfe rates. A few daya
ago, whet, in Threw o, I mad. enquiry of
several of 1 he hrok\ re and was informed
that there was not a single County in
Township debenture in the market; that
the last Monty debenture that had been
sold was at such a premium as to yield
the purchaser only five per Dent. interest
en his investment. Under thew circuit, -
etsnoes it becomes a serious question
how or in what manner to invest the
Sinking Funds on hand and to be raised
jn future years.
•When the County rat::,, of 1880 are
.11 paid in by the municipalities, there
Will he as shown in the statement• sub-
mitted, 320,000 at the credit of these
Sinking Funds. The banks pill not pas
on deposits now more than 3 per cent.
Debentures, even if they can be got,
cannot be purchased to yield inure than
5 per e.eet. What other sureties are
available ? Stocks, although yielding
fair Tutee of interest, are of two specula-
tive and uncertain a character for muni-
cipal investments.
Mortgagee on real estate, after deben-
tures, are considered the safest sec uritiee,
but municipalities have no power to in-
vest sinking funds in such. I wouhl.
however, invite ytur consideration as to
whether it might not be advisable to a
authority from the Legidateve to invest
such Sinking Funds iu filet mortgages
on farm property. By Section 360 of
the Municipal Act, power is given to
mnnicipalities to invert surplus no.neys
derived front the Municipalities Fund,
or other surplus moneys set apart for
educational purposes, in first mortgagee
on teal estate, that power might be ex -
teethed to include all Sinking Funds, not
immediately required for the redemption
of debehtutes. I as informed that some
Townships in our own and other Counties
are acting under the authority *ivun by
this section, and investing their tidier -
time' funds in mortgages, on which they
are receiving from 7 to 8 per cent. In-
formation can be obtained as to the
working of such investments by the
Councils, from the Reeves or officers of
these municipalities, and if found matin
factory, and the Council should desire
the power to invost their Sinking Funds
in such securities, you might petition the
Legislature so to amend the Municipal
Act as Wgive the requisite authority.
