APPENDIX (A). 



NORTH CANAKA. 



I have the honour to submit my Annual Eeport, with the 

 accounts enclosed for the official year 1859-60. 



2. The collector having furnished the account-current up to 

 31st Dec. 1859, Phave only to submit the accounts for the re- 

 maining portion of the official year, 



3. For the purpose of bringing the operations of the entire 

 year under one view, I have drawn up another account-current 

 from 1st May 1859 to 30th April 1860. In this all the items 

 belonging to S, Canara, entered before the division of the dis- 

 trict, are thrown out. 



4. This account shows an income of Es. 200,767, with an 

 expenditure, including the cost of the fixed establishment, of 

 Es. 57,664, thus leaving a profit of Es. 143,103. 



5. Memorandum of Wood unaccounted for. — This exhibits the 

 logs in store last year, the subsequent supply and disposal with 

 stock on hand. Last year the estimated value of timber in store 

 was Es. 110,771-12-0 ; while now there is a balance valued at 

 Es. 132,767, exceeding the former by Es. 21,996. This difference 

 is not caused by putting a higher value on the timber, but by 

 having a greater quantity in store. 



6. I beg to offer some remarks about forest operations in par- 

 ticular. In doing this, I shall try to compare the works, estab- 

 lishment, and income and expense of previous years with those 

 at present.
