Manuwatu tramwaj' ; and to ask for an additional grant of L 60,000 to complete roads in hand, as well as to construct others considered necessary. Having stated the roads upon which this money was to be expended, and having given other explanations, Mr Richardson concluded as follows— "Up to the 30th June, 1873, there was a total expenditure by the Public Workß Department, exclusive of immigration, of L 1,649,923, 649,923 2s lid, and the expenditure during the year 1873-74, was LI 554,446 4s lOd. There are outstanding liabilities in England and the Colony o* L 1,873,688 16s 4d, making a total of expenditure and liabilities of L 5,078,056 4s Id. These are large figures, but, Sir, we have large results, and there are few who will be found now to assert that any of the railways which are proposed or undertaken, will not from the moment they are opened, return more than working expenses and. a fair depreciating fund, and if economically worked will considerably conlribute in course of time towards paying interest on the outlay ; and with regard to the roads in the North Island I do not imagine anyone will deny the vast service they have been in opening up and bringing about the settlement of the country. The Colony has undertaken a gigantic work ; it is incumbent on the Assembly to see that it is carried out to its legitimate end, and, Sir, I have no fear as to the result."
