Dividing the total period of 12
years into two half-periods of
6 years each, in order to see at
which of the two the rate of expence
per head was greatest, it appears the result is | £337,449:7s:1 1/2d
that the as follows: First Half-period Total of the general expence – | £337,449:7s:1 1/2d
for the first half period instead of
being half that of the whole period Half do upon the whole period – | 435,444:10:10 1/4
£870,889:1:8 3/4 and £435,444:10:10 1/4 is
viz: 518:245:17:9 3/4 was but
(870,889:1:8 3/4) is
Difference – | 97,995:3:8 3/4
To which Adding the half of the Naval
expence of the whole period – | £83,180:12s:5 1/2d
(£166,361:4s:11 1/2d ÷ 2 =)
the Grand total instead of £518,245:1:9 3/4 for this half period, | 420,629:19:7
Half do upon the whole period – | 518,245:1:9 3/4
(£1,027,491:19:1 3/4 ) | 420,629:19:7
Grand Difference, as before – | 97,995:3:8 3/4
N.B. The extra expences by accident
and otherwise which swelled the account
of the Naval expence during this first
half period above that of the last, being
expences attending in incident to the foundation
of the Colony ought to be distributed must
(it should seem) be distributed throughout
the whole period – therefore no separate
account is here attempted to be
taken of the Naval expences of this
first half period in contradistinction to
those of the second: nor does the Treasury
station do the documents furnish
materials for such an account.
⊞ just as the expence of building
including the repair of any damage
that may have happened to the
foundation must be taken into the
account in estimating the rate per
man in a Prison or Penitentiary
House.
Expence per Year upon an average
for this first half-period – | 70,104:2s:5d
