This Statement is intended to show the whole income and expendi- 

 ture including the Government Grants, but the heads are so arranged 

 as to distinguish the Society's own resources and the charges which 

 they were required to meet. 



The outstandings continue large, amounting to Bs. 14,092-6-9, and 

 the Finance Committee have not yet succeeded in determining the 

 character of all the items with sufficient precision to enable them to 

 remove from the accounts what is irrecoverable. It is believed, how- 

 ever, that not more than Bs. 4,500 of this sum will have to be given 

 up ; a very large proportion consists of current contributions which 

 are certain of realization during the next quarter. 



The liabilities amount only to Bs. 3,384-1-10. This estimate pro- 

 vides for the payment of Book-sellers and Printer's Bills, and every 

 contingent charge for the year which may yet be due. The amount, 

 it will be seen, falls short of the Cash balance now in hand. 



The Council think therefore there is room to congratulate the 

 Society on its having recovered altogether from the remaining em- 

 barrassments which were noticed in the Annual Beport for 1851.
