Provisions. 
7 . The estimate for this supply has 
already been laid before Parliament: 
but it is here to be observed, that the 
sum of 1,1 46^. for Ordnance provi- 
sions, included also in the estimates 
delivered in on that occasion, should 
be omitted, as it is included in this 
estimate.

able to send the provisions, as by 
estimate, to Fernando Po; but he 
thinks the sum estimated for sending 
them by cost of freight to Cape Coast, 
may be more advantageously applied
