12 Annual Report. [Feb. 



Rs. 153-10-6 under the head of " Sale of Publications. " The difference 

 between the estimated and actual receipts, under the head of " Govern- 

 ment Allowances," is due to the grant from the Government of Madras 

 for Part III of the Society's Journal, dealing with Anthropology, 

 Ethnology, and Folklore, not having been received during the year. 



On the Expenditure side, the items of "Binding," "Journal, Part I," 

 " Journal, Part II," and " Proceedings," show an increase. The heavy 

 increase in the " binding " is due to a third set of the Society's " Asiatic 

 Researches," " Joui^nals," and " Pi'oceedings" having been bound for the 

 Society's Library, and to the binding of some old works. The budget 

 grant for "Journal, Part I," has been exceeded by Rs. 408-4-6; this is 

 owing to the payment for the printing of the maps illustrating Major 

 Raverty's article on the " Mihran of Sind and its Tributaries." The 

 expenditure on "Journal, Part II," shows an increase of Rs. 1,141-8-9, 

 caused chiefly by the payment of £68- J 1 for plates, to Messrs. West, 

 Newman & Co. Owing to the Baptist Mission Press having been paid 

 for the printing of eleven numbers of the " Proceedings" instead of ten, 

 as usual, there is a slight increase of Rs. 253-8-6 under this head. 



An Expenditure of only Rs. 807-4-8 appears under the head of 

 " Books," in consequence of the non-receipt of Messrs. Kegan Paul, 

 Trench, Triibner and Go's accounts, the books purchased through the 

 London Agents amounting to £67-13-10. 



There were two extraordinary items of expenditure during 1894, 

 under the heads of " Repairs " and " Furniture," not provided for in 

 the Budget. Rs. 1,761-6-0 was spent in cleaning and renovating the oil 

 paintings belonging to the Society and in repairing the cane matting. 

 Four almirahs were removed from the stock-room to the Library, and 

 the necessary repairs cost Rs. 199. 



The actual expenditure on the " Journal " and "Proceedings " was 

 as follows : — 



/-Part I. 



Journal ... < Part II. 



(Part III. 

 Proceedings.,, 



Total 



This is less than the Budget Estimate by Rs. 270-5-6. Only one 

 number of the Journal, Part III, was issued for 1894. 



The Budget Estimate of probable ordinary Receipts and Expendi- 

 ture for 1895 has been fixed as follows :— Receipts, Rs. 16,844; Ex- 

 penditure, Rs. 16,013.
