In every case the moneys can be paid only out of the sum appropriated by Parliament for the specific purpose mentioned. All the moneys and revenue over which the Parliament of Canada has power of appropriation form the Consolidated Fund ; and it has been provided by statute that such moneys are to be appropriated in the following order:—(1) expenses of collection, (2) the interest on the public debt, (3) the salary of the Governor-General, (4) moneys borrowed in connexion with the Pacific Railway, (5) moneys borrowed in connexion with the Hudson Bay Co. and Rupert's Land, (6) moneys borrowed for Public Works, (7) salaries of the judges. Each department of state is required to prepare an account of the moneys appropriated for the expenses of the department and of the moneys actually expended. After such account is audited by the Deputy Head or other person charged with the expenditure, it is transmitted to the Auditor- General, who again audits the account before it is laid before Parliament? In addition to the above accounts, the Minister of Finance prepares an account of all sums expended out of the Consoli- dated Fund for the financial year which ends on the 30th June: such account with the report of the Auditor-General thereon is laid before Parliament? 7.
