It is now further enacted, that with regard to those loving women who retain their affection to- wards their Lords when these have , been removed by death , the Dhurm Shasters have enjoined two modes of proceedings , viz . that they should ac- company them in death (Suhgumun) or else per- form the living Suttee of a devout life (Jeewut Suttee Dhurin Palun. ) But many now from motives of vain glory or reputation regarding only their own fancies and not the conditions of the Shasters, take rio care to dissuade the woman at that moment of her anguish , but on the contrary giving her all the adventitious aids of camphor and other intoxicating drugs make thus a Suttee sacrifice of her .
FortWilliam , Foreign Department, the 22d December, 1847 .

Export Overland Mail per P. and O. Co's Steamer " Iaddington," direct from Calcutta .
NOTICE is hereby given , for general informa- tion , that the Maila for Suez, and the intermediate
Clause XXX . And it is hereby enacted , that if any Post Master General , or Post Mas- ter, shall suspect that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at his Post Office contains any con- traband Article, or any Article on which duty is [ 11 ]
forwarded by the Government Express. Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express , " but , as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so marked.
owing to Government , or that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at that Post Office contains any writing in contravention of the provisions of Sec- tions IX . and X. of this Act, it shall be lawful for such Officer to summon the person to whom the Letter or Packet is directed, to attend at that Post Office by himself and Agent within Forty Eight hours after the arrival of the Letter or Packet at that Post Office , and to open the Letter or Packet in the presence of the person to whom che Letter or Packet is directed , or of that person's Agent ; and if that person shall not so attend by himself or Agent, then to open the Letter or Packet in the absence of that person .
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolas, but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office , without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

GENERAL POST OFFICE , MAY 1847 .
To W. TAYLER, Esquire, Post Master General, Calcutta.
The Post Master General having been informed by the Court of Directors of the East India Comm- pany, that on and after the 1st June next, persons in this Country may forward private correspond- ence by the Government Express from Bombay to Calcutta and Madras , all persons desirous of avail- ing themselves of this privilege, will be required to mark upon the covers of their letters the words " By Express from Bombay , " and in addition to this special address , it will be necessary , that all letters intended to be forwarded by the way of Southampton, should be so endorsed as hitherto ; the postage to be charged in India in the deli- very of letters sent by this Express will be in ad- dition to the ordinary Inland rates .
SIR,-Adverting to my Letter , dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers , intimat- ing to the public generally, especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters , to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express, " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known , they ought to advise me , whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked , to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
One Rupee for every letter not exceeding half a tola in weight .
Two Rupees for every letter above half a tola, but not exceeding one tola in weight .
Four Rupees for every letter above one tola , but not exceeding two tolas in weight, two tolas being the maximum weight of letters to be con- veyed by Express .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because, had I not done so, great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice , after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office , and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
On Newspapers, each Newspaper Office in Cal- cutta and Madras , will be allowed to receive two Newspapers at the ordinary rates of Inland post- age, on all other Newspapers forwarded by Ex- press a postage of five Rupees each willbe charg- ed, and no Newspaper will he received for the Ex-
press exceeding three tolas in weight. N. B. One tola and a quarter is nearly equi- valent to half an ounce avoirdupoise .
3d. The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail , ) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express.Express .

I shall feel much obliged byby your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices" in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express, " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will , in future , be [ 12 ]

No. 966 of 1847 . General Department.
To W. TAYLER , Esquire , Post Master General, Calcutta.
The Post Master General having been informed by the Court of Directors of the East India Com- pany, that on and after the Ist June next , persons in this Country may forward private correspond- ence by the Government Express from Bombay to Calcutta and Madras , all persons desirous of avail- ing themselves of this privilege, will be required to mark upon the covers of their letters the words "By Express from Bombay , " and in addition to this special address , it will be necessary, that all letters intended to be forwarded by the way of Southampton , should be so endorsed as hitherto ; the postage to be charged in India in the deli- very of letters sent by this Express will be in ad-
dition to the ordinary Inland rates. One Rupee for every letter not exceeding half a tola in weight .
SIR,-Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers, intimat- ing to the public generally , especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express ," and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile , until the system becomes ge- nerally known, they ought to advise me , whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked , to I be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
Two Rupees for every letter above half a tola, but not exceeding one tola in weight .
Four Rupees for every letter above one tola, but not exceeding two tolas in weight, two tolas being the maximum weight of letters to be con- veyed by Express.
2d. By the last Express 1 dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because, had I not done so, great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issuedby the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked.
On Newspapers, each Newspaper Office in Cal- cutta and Madras , willbe allowed to receive two Newspapers at the ordinary rates of Inland post- age, on all other Newspapers forwardedby Ex- press a postage of five Rupees each willbe charg- ed, and no Newspaper will be received for the Ex- press exceeding three tolas in weight.
3d.- The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained (as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail,) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
N. B. One tola and a quarter is nearly equi- valent to half an ounce avoirdupoise . (True Copy, ) (Signed) W. ESCOMBE, Secy . to Govt. (True Copy , ) (Signed) A. W. RAVENSCROFT, Post Master General. (True Copy,) W. TAYLER, Post Master General.
Revised Rates of British Packet Postage, leviable on Newspapers,Prices Current and Commercial Lists, conveyed by the Peninsular and Oriental Com- pany's Steamers from and to Indian Ports.
4th. I shall feel much obliged by your favoring mewith a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sen out from England marked " per Express , " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will, in future , be forwarded by the Government Express. Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express ," but, as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so marked.
5th. The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus, but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office , without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until 1 receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .
WITH reference to the Notification issued by this Office, under date the 17th April last, further no- tice is hereby given for general information, that under the instructions of Government, every News- paper, Price Current, or Commercial List, which may be posted for conveyance by the Peninsular and Oriental Company's Contract Steamers, from any one Indian Port to another , shall henceforth be charged with British Packet Postage, at the rate of Nine Pie, or Three Pice , ( Three Quarters of an Anna, ) instead of Eight Pie, as formerly fixed .

To W. TAYLER , Esquire , Post Master General, Calcutta .
GENERAL POST OFFICE, MAY 1847 .
SIR.-Adverting to my Letter , dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers, intimat- ing to the public generally, especially the Mer- cantile Community , that, if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express, they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express. " and to keep within the imited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile , until the system becomes ge- nerally known , they ought to advise me, whether they wish any of their Letters, not so marked, to be sent on from Bombay by the Express.
The Post Master General having been informed by the Court of Directors of the East India Com- pany, that on and after the Ist June next, persons in this Country may forward private correspond- ence by the Government Express from Bombay to Calcutta and Madras , all persons desirous of avail- ing themselves of this privilege,privilege, will be required to mark upon the covers of their letters the words "By Express from Bombay, " and in addition to this special address, it will be necessary, that all letters intended to be forwarded by the way of Southampton, should be so endorsed as hitherto ; the postage to be charged in India in the deli- very of letters sent by this Express will be in ad-
dition to the ordinary Inland rates. One Rupee for every letter not exceeding half atola in weight .
Two Rupees for every letter above half a tola, but not exceeding one tola in weight .
Four Rupees for every letter above one tola, but not exceeding two tolas in weight, two tolas being the maximum weight of letters to be con- veyed by Express .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because, had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but lintend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked.
On Newspapers, each Newspaper Office in Cal- cutta and Madras , will be allowed to receive two Newspapers at the ordinary rates of Inland post- age, on all other Newspapers forwarded by Ex- press a postage of five Rupees each will be charg- ed, and no Newspaper will be received for the Ex- press exceeding three tolas in weight.
3d.- The public ought moreover to be most espe- ciallywarned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained (as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail.) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express.
N. B. One tola and a quarter is nearly equi- valent to half an ounce avoirdupoise . ( True Copy,) (Signed) W. EscoMBE, Secy , to Gorl. (True Copy, ) (Signed) A. W. RAVENSCROFT, Post Master General. (True Copy,) W. TAYLER, Post Master General.
4th . I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express , " or posted in Bombay to go by Express) will, in future, be forwarded by the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express," But, as they cannot be so forwarded , it is useless to have them so marked.
NOTICE is hereby given , that under Orders of Government ( except during the hours and for the purposes specified below, ) the General Post Office will be henceforth strictly closed on Sundays.
From 6 a . M. to 10 A. M. , for the sorting and distribution of Letters .
From 4 to 6 P. M. , for the receipt and despatch of Ditto.
W. TAYLER, Post Master Genl.
5th. The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus, but, if that were acted up to , the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, without reference to that limit and shall continue the practice until Calcutta, General Post Office, 2d October, 1846 .

Whereas by Act XVI . of 1847 , entitled an Act for constituting Commissioners for the Improve- ment of the Town of Calcutta, partly by appoint- ment of the Government and partly by election of the Rate -payers , provision was made for the ap- pointment and election of such Commissioners, or in default of election , for the appointment of the whole of such Commissioners :
And whereas it is expedient, that provision should be made to enable such Commissioners to purchase and hold real or personal property for the purposes aforesaid in manner hereinafter inen- tioned:
III . And whereas it is expedient to make pro- vision for those cases in which the said Commis- sioners may be able to purchase lands, buildings or tenements by agreement: it is enacted, that it shall and may be lawful for the said Commis- sioners to agree with the owners of any lands , buildings or tenements by this Act authorized to be taken and which shall be required for the pur- poses of this Act, and with all parties having any estate or interest in such lands , buildings or tene- ments, or by this Act or by any other authority or power enabled to sell and convey the same, for the absolute purchase of any such lands, buildings or tenements . or such parts thereof as they shall think proper, and of all estates and interests in such lands of what kindsoever .
And whereas it is probable that benevolent and public spirited individuals, with the view of contri- buting to the improvement and adornment of the said Town may be desirous of settling real or personal property by Deed or Will upon such Com- missioners:
I. It is therefore enacted , that the said Com- missioners shall be Trustees for and on behalf of the Government of Fort William in Bengal , and ofthe inhabitants of Calcutta, and shall sue and be sued at Law and in Equity in Her Majesty's Supreme Court of Judicature at Fort William by the name of the Commissioners for the improve- ment of the Town of Calcutta, and shall common seal , and shall have power to take, pur- chase and 'hold lands , tenemen's , hereditaments, goods, chattels and other property , as such Trus- tees for the purposes aforesaid.

V. And it is enacted, that the purchase money consideration or compensation to be paid or given for any lands, buildings or tenement to be chased or taken from any partytenermentier by Pur- ability or incapacity, and not having any power to sell or convey such lands except under the provisions of this Act, and the compensation to be paid for any permanent damage or injury to any such lands , buildings or tenements, shall in all cases be determined by the verdict of a jury to be summoned as hereinafter provided .
X. And it is enacted , that if the party claim- ing compensation desire to have the same settled by arbitration , and signify such desire by notice in writing to the said Commissioners before they have issued their warrant to the Sheriff to summon a jury in respect of such lands under the provisions hereinafter contained, stating in such notice the nature of the interest in respect of which such party claims compensation , and the amount of the compensation so claimed, the same shall be po settled by arbitration accordingly, but unless the party claiming compensation shall as aforesaid signify his desire to have the question of such compensation settled by arbitration , or if when the matter shall have been referred to arbitration the arbitrators or the umpire shall for three months have failed to make their or his award , or if no final award shall be made, the question of such compensation shall be settled by the verdict of a jury as hereinafter provided.
VI .

To W. TAYLER , Esquire ,
Export Overland Mail via Bombay.
Post Master General, Calcutta . SIR, -Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d THE Government of Bombay having appointed the Ist of the ensuing month of February for the departure of the next Steamer therefrom , with & Mail for Suez- Notice accordingly is hereby given, for general information , that the latest safe date, for the transmission of letters and papers from Calcutta, which may be intended for convey- ance by that opportunity, will be Friday, the 21st instant, and that the first set of the Overland Packets willhe closed at, and despatched from , this Office on Wednesday, the 19th idem .
FortWilliam, Genl . Post Office, the 3d January, 1848.
instant , I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers , intimat- ing to the public generally, especially the Mer- cantile Community, that , if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited wright of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomев де- nerally known, they ought to advise me, whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked , to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because, had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of thethe privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
NOTICE is hereby given , that in regard to Packets and Parcels posted for despatch to and from Arracan and the Tenasserim Provinces by Government Steamers ; the provisions of Clause 30, of Act XVII . of 1837-( a Copy of which is subjoined for the information of the Public, ) will, from and after this date , he most strictly enforced, whenever there may be reason to suspert that any Packet or Parcel contains any contraband Article ; or any Article on which Government Duty is owing.

Calcutta General Post Office, the 13th November 1847. 5 }
3d.- The public ought moreover to be most espe- | cially warned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched . They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail, ) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express.
ACT No. XVII . OF 1837 .
4th.-1 shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, andby your informing the parties con connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express, " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will, in future, be forwardedby the Government Express. Sonie of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express , " but, as they cannot be so forwarded , it is useless to have them so marked .
Clause XXX . that if any Post MasterAndGeneral,Generalit is herebyherebyor Postenacted,Mas- ter, shall suspect that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at his Post Office contains any con- traband Article, or any Article on which duty is owing to Government, or that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at that Post Office contains any writing in contravention of the provisions of Sec- tions IX. and X. of this Act, it shallbe lawful for such Officer to summon the person to whom the Letter or Packet is directed , to attend at that Post Officeby himself and Agent within Forty Eight hours after the arrival of the Letter or Packet at that Post Office, and to open the Letter or Packet in the presence of the person to whom che Letter or Packet is directed , or of that person's Agent; and if that person shall not so attend by himself or Agent, then to open the Letter or
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus, but, if that were acted up to , the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generallygenerally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office , without reference to that limit , and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces, the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches; and both coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also. The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight , and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasion beyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate .
5.-The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption. The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line. On the other hand, it may happen, that from an increase in the number of Boats , or of voyages , or from other causes, the quantity now estimated may be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given, meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty- five per cent. on the present estimate, and on the same terms of contract.
6. The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store , will not be in force during the last three months of the terin of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price .
7.-Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster , or wood not of the best quality, such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor .
[ 49 ]
8-Government will advance to the Contractor, under approved security , one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders of the Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered, and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment , that is, that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess, shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year, when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one-fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal, but if the
Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for
breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead
of coal , the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for
every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply, and the
Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead , the Contractor shall for every maund of wood
not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund, and it shall be lawful for Government to de-
duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in
their hands, or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract.
10. The Party whose Tender is accepted, will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond
for the due fulfilment of his engagement.

GENERAL POST OFFICE NOTIFICATION .
No. 2 .
Export Overland Mail via Bombay.
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters, not especially marked , because, had I not done so, great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office, and to dispatchatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked.
THE Government of Bombay having appointed the 1st of the ensuing month of February for the departure of the next Steamer therefrom , with a Mail for Suez- Notice accordingly is hereby given, for general information , that the latest safe date, for the transmission of letters and papers from Calcutta, which may be intended for convey- ance by that opportunity , willbe Friday, the 21st instant, and that the first set of the Overland Packets will be closed at, and despatched from, this Office on Wednesday, the 19th idem .
Fort William, Genl. Post Office, the 3d January , 1848.
3d. The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such lette: s cannot be so dispatched. They will invariabl , be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail.) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
No. 30.
Export Overland Mail per P. and O. Co.'s Steamer "Precursor," direct from Calcutta .
4th. I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices" in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express, " or posted inBombay to go by Express) will , in future, be forwarded by the Government Expressxpress . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express , " but, as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so marked.
NOTICE is hereby given , for general informa- tion, that the Mails for Suez and the intermediate Ports (Madras, Ceylon , Aden, Penang , Singapore, and Hongkong. ) intended for transmission by the Peninsular and Oriental Company's Steain Vessel, " Precursor, " willbe closed at this Office on Monday , the 7th proximo , and that an after Packet will be despatched hence on Tuesday , the 8th idem , with the ordinary Mail , to ensure its arrival at Kedgeree, in time to reach the Steamer, the public are particularly requested to observe that no Letters for the " Precursor" can be received after 4 P. M. of that date.
J. R. BURLTON BENNETT , Deputy Post Master General, in charge.
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus, but, if that were acted up to , the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practicpractice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

Adverting SIR,-Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d instant , I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers, intimat- ing to the public generally, especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known, they ought to advise me, whether they wish any of their Letters, not so marked , to be sent on from Bombay by the Express.
by the Court of Directors of the East India Con pany, that on and after the 1st June next , in this Country may forward private correspond- ence by the Government Express from Bombay to Calcutta and Madras , all persons desirous of avail- ing themselves of this privilege , will be required to mark upon the covers of their letters the words "By Express from Bombay ," and in addition to this special address , it will be necessary , that all letters intended to be forwarded by the way of Southampton, should be so endorsed as hitherto ; the postage to be charged in India in the deli- very of letters sent by this Express willbe in ad- dition to the ordinary Inland rates.

2- Parties must tender for each division separately , and be prepared for the acceptance of their offer for one division, and its rejection in another. No general tender willbe accepted, but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel , and for more than one Division , specifying separately the rate for each. The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood.
3.-The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality , and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered , must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial , which, with the exception of two maunds , will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted , two maunds will he returned if sent for within one week of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted, two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua- lity contracted for.
4.-The Wood inust be dry, and recently felled , of the heaviest and best quality procurable, either of the trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth. It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces , the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches; and both coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also . The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers By weight , and at the rate of one huudred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasion beyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above fate.
5.-The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption . The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity , as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantitybeing required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line. On the other hand , it may happen, that from an increase in the number of Boats , or of voyages , or from other causes, the quantity now estimated Inay be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given, meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty- five per cent. on the present estimate, and on the same terms of contract .
6.- The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always he maintained in store , will not be in force during the last three months of the term of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price.
7.- Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster, or wood not of the best quality , such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- iment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8-Government will advance to the Contractor , under approved security , one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receiptsfrom Commanders of the [ 61 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered , and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment , that is , that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess, shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year , when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him, the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one -fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal , but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal, the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply, and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead, the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund , and it shall be lawful for Government to de- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in their hands , or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract.
10. The Party whose Tender is accepted, will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond
for the due fulfilment of his engagement . By order of the Superintendent of Marine.

To W. TAYLER , Esquire, PostMaster General, Calcutta.
NOTICE. With reference to the London Post Master General's Notification regarding the rates of postage tobe charged upon Letters received from Bombay by the Government Express , which was published with a notice from this Office of yesterday's date, the following Letter since received from the Post Master General of Bombay on the subject, is also published for general information .
W. TAYLER,
Post Master General .
Fort William,Genl . Post Office ficen The 24th July, 1847.
SIR,-Adverting to my Letter , dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration, whether it would not be advisable to publish & Notice in the Calcutta Papers, intimat- ing to the public generally , especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- went Overland Express, they should request their .
[ 81 ]
letters intended to be forwarded by the way of Southampton, should be so endorsed as hitherto ; the postage to be charged in India in thedeli- very of letters sent by this Express will be in ad- dition to the ordinary Inland rates.
Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known , they ought to advise me , whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked, to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
One Rupee for every letter not exceeding half a tola in weight.
Two Rupees for every letter above half a tola, but not exceeding one tola in weight.
Four Rupees for every letter above one tola, but not exceeding two tolas in weight , two tolas being the maximum weight of letters to be con- veyed by Express .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters, not especially marked, because, had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issuedissued by the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
On Newspapers, each Newspaper Office in Cal- cutta and Madras , will be allowed to receive two Newspapers at the ordinary rates of Inland post- age, on all other Newspapers forwardedby Ex- press a postage of five Rupees each will be charg- ed, and no Newspaper will be received for the Ex-
press exceeding three tolas in weight. N. B. One tola and a quarter is nearly equi- valent to halfan ounce avoirdupoise.
3d. The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding hoo tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched . They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail, ) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .

Agra, 30th October, 1847 .
4th.-I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express, " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will , in future, be forwarded by the Government Express. Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express, " but, as they cannot be so forwarded , it is useless to have them so marked.
NOTICE. - Several instances having been lately brought to the notice of the Post Master General N. W. Provinces, of Officers having franked as on the Public Service communications to the Post Masters and Steam Agents , containing instructions regarding their private Letters and Parcels.
The annexed Extract from the Rules for the management of the Post Office Department, passed by the Governor General in Council on the 30th August 1837, is re- published for general informa- tion :
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolas, but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably generallygenerallyvery nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .
I have, & c .
If after the date of publication of this notice, any public Officer shall frank as on " Service, " a communication of the nature above alluded to, the penalty enacted in Section V. of Act XX . of 1838, willbe strictly enforced.
(Sd.) A. W. RAVENSCROFT , Post Master General . Bombay, Genl. Post Office, 12th July, 1847 . (True Copy , )
All references and appeals to the Post Master General willbe forwarded free of postage, if super- scribedon Post Office Service ," and signed with the full signature of the party by whom the refer- ence or appeal is made.

2-Parties must tender for each division separately, and be prepared for the acceptance of their offer for one division, and its rejection in another. No general tender will be accepted, but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel , and for more than one Division, specifying separately the rate for each. The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood.
3.-The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered, must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpere for trial , which, with the exception of two maunds , will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted, two maunds will be returned if sent for within one week of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted, two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua- lity contracted for.
4- The Wood must be dry, and recently felled , of the heaviest and best quality procurable, either ofthe trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth . It must be free from bark and cut inte lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces, the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches ; and both coad and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also. The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight, and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasionbeyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate.
5. The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption. The Government will not be pledged however,how to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line . On the other hand, it may happen, that from an increase in the number of Boats, or of voyages , or from other causes, the quantity now estimated may be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' noticebeing given, meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty- five per cent. on the present estimate, and on the same terms of contract.
6. The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store , will not be in force during the last three months of the term of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price.
7. Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster, or wood not of the best quality, such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8-Government will advance to the Contractor , under approved security , one half of the estimated ontlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders of the [ 83 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered, and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment , that is, that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess, shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year, when if any balance be due to Governinent from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one- fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt.
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal , but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal , the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply, and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead, the Contractor shall for every maundmaund of wood not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund, and it shall be lawful for Government to de- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in their hands, or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract.
10. The Party whose Tender is accepted , will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond for the due fulfilment of his engagement .
By order of the Superintendent of Marine.

To W. TAYLER , Esquire, PostMaster General , Calcutta.
NOTICE is hereby given , that an Express Packet (consisting exclusively of Overland Letters , not exceeding the prescribed maximum weight of 400 Tolas in the aggregate , ) intended for conveyance by the Steamer appointed to leave Bombay on the Ist proximo, will be closed at , and despatched from, this Office , on Monday, the 24th instant, instead of the 23rd, as previously advertized, and that no Letter above one Tola in weight, or any brought after 2 P. M. on that date, ( whether theabove-mentioned weight be completedbe completed or not ) will on any account be received for transmission by this opportunity. The Public are particularly requested to take notice of this to avoid disappoint- ment.
No more than two Tolas weight of Letters can be posted, on such occasion, by any one Firm or Individual:
FortWilliam,William, Genl. Post Office, the21st January, 1848. }
SIR, Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers, intimat- ing to the public generally , especially the Mer- cantile Community , that , if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express, " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known, they ought to advise me, whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked, to be sent on from Bombay by the Express.
[ 97 ]
very of letters sent by this Express will be in ad- dition to the ordinary Inland rates .
One Rupee for every letter not exceeding half a tola în weight .
Two Rupees for every letter above half a tola, but not exceeding one tola in weight .
Four Rupees for every letter above one tola, but not exceeding two tolas in weight, two tolas being the maximum weight of letters to be con- veyed by Express.
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked, because, had I not done so , greatgreat disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice , after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the publie becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
On Newspapers, each Newspaper Office in Cal- cutta and Madras , will be allowed to receive two Newspapers at the ordinary rates of Inland post- age, on all other Newspapers forwarded by Ex- press a postage of five Rupees each will be charg- ed, and no Newspaper will be received for the Ex- press exceeding three tolas in weight.
3d.-The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained (as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail,) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
N. B. One tola and a quarter is nearly equi- valent to half an ounce avoirdupoise. (True Copy,) (Signed) W. ESCOMBE, Secy . to Govt. (True Copy,) (Signed) A. W. RAVENSCROFT , Post Master General. (True Copy,) W. TAYLER, Post Master General.
4th. I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, andby your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers (whether sent out from England marked " per Express , " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will , in future, be forwarded by the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- laud Papers marked " per Express ," but, as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so marked .
Agra, 30th October, 1847 .
NOTICE.-Several instances having been lately brought to the notice of the Post Master General N. W. Provinces , of Officers having frauked as on the Public Service communications to the Post Masters and Steam Agents, containing instructions regarding their private Letters and Parcels.
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus , but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .
The annexed Extract from the Rules for the management of the Post Office Department, passed by the Governor General in Council on the 30th August 1837, is re- published for general informa- tion :

2-Parties must tender for each division separately , and be prepared for the acceptance of their offer for one division, and its rejection in another. No general tender will be accepted, but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel , and for more than one Division , specifying separately the rate for each. The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood.
3.-The Coal must be the best Raneegunge, or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered , must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial,for trial, which,with the exception of two maunds, will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted, two maunds will be returned if sent for within one week of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted, two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua- litycontracted for.
4.-The Wood must be dry, and recently felled, of the heaviest and best quality procurable , either of the trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth . It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces, the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches; and both coal and wood mustbe protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also. The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight, and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasionbeyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate.
5. The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption. The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line. On the other hand, it may happen, that from an increase in the number of Boats, or of voyages, or from other causes, the quantity now estimated may be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given , meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty- five per cent. on the present estimate, and on the same terms of contract.
6.-The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store , will not De in force during the last three months of the term of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price.
7. Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster, or wood not of the best quality , such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shallbe lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8-Government will advance to the Contractor , under approved security, one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders of the [ 99 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered, and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment, that is that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year, when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one- fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt.
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal, but if the
Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for
breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal, the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price
price of five mannds of wood for
every maund of coal he may fail to supply . Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply, and the
Governinent Boat be obliged to consume coal instead, the Contractor shall for every maund of wood
not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund, and it shall be lawful for Government to de-
duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in their hands, or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract
for the due fulfilment of his engagement. 10. The Party whose Tender is accepted, will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond

And whereas it is very desirable that the rules ofprocedure should enable causes whether at Law or in Equity which do not require a prolonged judicial investigation to be disposed of suınınarily, and that on the other hand the amplest means should exist for bringing the facts in disputed cases fully before the Court so as to enable the decision to pass upon the merits and not upon mere technicalities , and the Small Cause Court at Bombay affords an opportunity of introducing such a system of procedure it is therefore enacted as follows:
Resolution. The following Act is brought up before the Legislative Council this day- The Right Hon'ble the Governor General in Council being desirous that no time should be lost in passing the Act, Resolved, that the Rule requiring a pre- vious publication of two months or three months before the passing of any Act of the Government of India, be suspended in respect to the following proposed Act, and that it be reconsidered at the first Legislative meeting after the 3rd of March next .
I.

II . On the application of any person desirous An Act for extending the jurisdiction of the Small Cause Court at Bombay , and for enabling a uniform mode of procedure to be adopted in Causes of small amount at Law and in Equity .

Act, the Clerk of the Court shall enter in a book to be kept for this purpose in hishis office, a Plaint in writing, stating the names and the last known places of abode of the parties, and the substance of the action intended to be brought, and thereupon a summons stating the substance of the action shall be served on the Defendant calling upon him to appear before the Court on aday therein named according to the form direct- edby the rules to be made for regulating the prac- tice of the Court as hereinafter provided.
Whereas the Judges of the Supreme Court at Bombay have from time to time, Preamble. under the powers vested in them by the Charter of Justice, framed divers wholesome rules of procedure by which causes at law of a certain amount have been en- abled to be brought before the Judges sitting as a Small Cause Court in a simple and economic manner, to the great benefit of suitors and to the advancement of justice, and it is expedient that the jurisdiction thus exercised should be extended and should include certain causes in Equity and other matters wherein the ends of justice require summary procedure:
III . If the Plaintiff

is apprehensive that the Defendant is likely to withdraw himself from the jurisdiction of the Court, he shall be at And whereas the powers of the Judges do not extend to the framing of rules by which the parties to a suit at law may be made examinable, or be compelled to give discovery on oath as in suits in Equity, and it is expedient that such powers should be conferred, and that a uniform procedure should be framed for the elicitation of the truth in all cases according to the methods which have been found most efficacious in practice :

If exempted on account of rank from appearing in the Courts of the East India Company :
If of advanced age :
If of the feinmale sex :
If there is a co- plaintiff, who appears in person :
If there is a co - defendant defending jointly : If not personally cognizant of the matter in dispute :

But in all these cases the Judge may refuse to hold the party excused from appearing in person ifhe is not satisfied that the excuse is inade in good faith , or that the matter of the excuse exists in a sufficient degree to justify him in admitting it .
which proceed to judgment the Court shall pronounce decrees as if the matrer were pending in a Court of Equity having full jurisdiction of the sub- ject matter, and if on the case made by the Defen- dant on his pleadings and ev dence the ends of justice require a decree to be pronounced in his favor such decree may be made without his being put to file a Cross Bill , and the Court shall have like power to mould or modify its decrees as is possessed by the Court on its equi-

Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express, " but, as they cannot be so forwarded , it is useless to have them so marked.

5th. The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus, but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office , without referènce to that limit, and shall continue the practice until 1 receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

NOTICE.- The following Notice of the Post Mas- ter General of London , received through the Post Master General of Bombay, is published for gene- ral information .
SIR,-Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d instant. I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers , intimat- ing to the public generally, especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , sho Correspondents to mark " per Express," and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known, they ought to advise me , whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked, to be sent on from Bombay by the Express.
W. TAYLER, Post Master Genl.
Calcutta, Genl. Post Office, the 23d July, 1847.
GENERAL POST OFFICE , MAY 1847 .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because , had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
3d.- The public ought moreover to be most espe- ciallywarned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight , because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail, ) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express.
The Post Master General having been informed by the Court of Directors of the East India Com- pany, that on and after the Ist June next, persons in this Country may forward private correspond- ence by the Government Express from Bombay to Calcutta and Madras , all persons desirous of avail- ing themselves of this privilege, willbe required to mark upon the covers of their letters the words " By Express from Bombay, " and in addition to this special address, it will be necessary, that all letters intended to be forwarded by the way of Southampton , should be so endorsed as hitherto ; the postage tobe charged in India in the deli- very of letters sent by this Express will be in ad- dition to the ordinary Inland rates .
One Rupee for every letter not exceeding half a tola in weight .
4th .- 1 shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices" in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent [ 112 ]
Two Rupees for every letter above half a tola, but not exceeding one tola in weight .
The annexed Extract from the Rules for the management of the Post Office Department, passed by the Governor General in Council on the 30th August 1837, is re- published for general informa- tion :
Four Rupees for every letter above one tola, but not exceeding two tolas in weight , two tolas being the maximum weight of letters to be con- veyed by Express .
If after the date of publication of this notice, any public Officer shall frank as on " Service , " a communication of the nature above alluded to, the penalty enacted in Section V. of Act XX . of 1838, will be strictly enforced .
On Newspapers , each Newspaper Office in Cal- cutta and Madras , will be allowed to receive two Newspapers at the ordinary rates of Inland post- age, on all other Newspapers forwardedby Ex- press a postage of five Rupees each will be charg- ed, and no Newspaper will be received for the Ex- press exceeding three tolas in weight.
All references and appeals to the Post Master Generalwill be forwarded free of postage, if super- scribed " on Post Office Service ," and sigued with the full signature of the party by whom the refer- ence or appeal is made .
N. B. One tola and a quarter is nearly equi- valent to half an ounce avoirdupoise.

2- Parties must tender for each division separately , and be prepared for the acceptance of their
offer for one division, and its rejection in another. No general tender willbe accepted, but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel , and for more than one Division, specifying separately the rate for each . The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood . 3.-The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered, must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial , which, with
the exception of two maunds, will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted , two maunds will he returned if sent for within one week of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted , two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua- lity contracted for.
4.- The Wood must be dry , and recently felled , of the heaviest and best quality procurable , either of the trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth . It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding feet and split into pieces , the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches ; and both coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also. The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight, and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasionbeyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate.
5. The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption . The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity , as circunstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line . On the other hand, it may happen, that from an increase in the number of Boats , or of voyages , or from other causes, the quantity now estimated maybe insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given , meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty - five per cent , on the present estimate , and on the same terms of contract.
6. The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store, will not ne in force during the last three months of the term of the contract , but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price.
7.- Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster, or wood not of the best quality, such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8-Government will advance to the Contractor, under approved security, one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders of the [ 114 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered, and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable , balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment, that is , that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year, when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one - fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal, but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply , he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract , or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal, the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply, and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead, the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied, pay to Government eight aunas per maund, and it shall be lawful for Government to de- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in
their hands, or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract . 10. The Party whose Tender is accepted , will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond
ment. for the due fulfilment of his engagement . By order of the Superintendent of Marine .

And whereas the powers of the Judges do not extend to the framing of rules by which the parties to a suit at law may be made examinable, or be compelled to give discovery on oath as in suits in Equity, and it is expedient that such powers should be conferred , and that a uniform procedure should be framed for the elicitation of the truth in all cases according to the methods which have been found most efficacious in practice :

It is hereby enacted , that Sections 49 and 50 , of Regulation X. of 1819 , of the Bengal Code, and so much of Section 48 of the same Regula- tion, as affects the importation of Salt into Behar from the North Western Provinces, shall be repeal- ed from the

Clause XXX . And it is hereby enacted , that if any Post Master General , or Post Mas- ter, shall suspect that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at his Post Office contains any con- traband Article, or any Article on which duty is owing to Government , or that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at that Post Office contains any writing in contravention of the provisions of Sec- tions IX . and X. of this Act, it shallbe lawful for such Officer to summon the person to whom the Letter or Packet is directed , to attend at that Post Office by himself and Agent within Forty Eight hours after the arrival of the Letter or Packet at that Post Office , and to open the Letter or Packet in the presence of the person to whom che Letter or Packet is directed , or of that person's Agent; and if that person shall not so attend by himself or Agent, then to open the Letter or Packet in the absence of that person .
SIR,-Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d instant , I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers , intimat- ing to the public generally , especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters ,Letters , to be forwarded onby the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile , until the system becomes ge- nerally known, they ought to advise me, whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked, to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
( True Copy,) J. R. BURLTON BENNETT , Deputy Post Master General, in charge.
Pre-Payment of Indian ( Inland and Ship ) Postage on Covers forwarded toHong Kong.
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because, had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
NOTICE is hereby given , that in conformity to the instructions of Her Majesty's Post Master General , no Letter or Newspaper will , in future, be received at this Office for transmission to Hong Kong, unless the entire amount of Indian ( In- land and Ship) Postage due for the conveyance of the same to its ulterior destination , shall be previously paid by the Sender at the time of posting at the Despatching Office .
3d.- The public ought moreover to be most esре cially warned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail, ) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
It is to be distinctly understood that this rule does not apply to the description of covers for- wardedby the Peninsular and Oriental Company's Contract Steamers, as on them , the prescribed British Packet rate of Postage is charged.

RevisedRates of British Packet Postage, leviable on Newspapers,Prices Current and Commercial Lists, conveyed by the Peninsular and Oriental Com- pany's Steamers from and to Indian Ports .
4th . I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices" in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out fromEngland marked " per Express, " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will , in future, be forwarded by the Government Express. Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express," but, as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so marked .
WITH reference to the Notification issued by this Office, under date the 17th April last, further no- tice is hereby given for general information , that [ 124 ]

NOTICE .-Several instances having been lately brought to the notice of the Post Master General N. W. Provinces , of Officers having franked as on the Public Service communications to the Post Masters and Steam Agents , containing instructions regarding their private Letters and Parcels.
5th. The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus, but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

2- Parties must tender for each division separately , and be prepared for the acceptance of their offer for one division , and its rejection in another. No general tender will be accepted , but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel, and for more than one Division , specifying separately the rate for each . The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal orWood.
3.- The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered , must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial , which , with the exception of two maunds , will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted, two maunds will be returned if sent for within one werk of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted, two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua- lity contracted for.
4.- The Wood inust be dry, and recently felled, of the heaviest and best quality procurable, either of the trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth . It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces , the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches ; andboth coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also . The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight, and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasionbeyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate .
5.-The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption . The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line . On the other hand , it may happen , that from an increase in the number of Boats , or of voyages, or from other causes , the quantity now estimated maybe insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given, meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty-five per cent. on the present estimate , and on the same terms of contract.
6.-The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store , will not be in force during the last three months of the term of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price.
7.- Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal toto the muster, or wood not of the best quality , such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8-Government will advance to the Contractor, under approved security , one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders of the [ 126 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered , and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment, that is, that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess, shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year, when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one- fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal , but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal, the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply, and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead , the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund, and it shall be lawful for Government tode- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in their hands, or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract .
10. The Party whose Tender is accepted , willbe required to enter into the usual Penalty bond for the due fulfilment of his engagement.

2.- Parties must tender for each division separately, and be prepared for the acceptance of their offer for one division, and its rejection in another. No general tender willbe accepted , but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel, and for more than one Division , specifying separately the rate for each . The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood .
3.- The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered , must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial , which , with the exception of two maunds , will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted , two maunds will he returned if sent for within one werk of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent
by the party or parties whose tender is accepted, two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua-
lity contracted for . 4.- The Wood must be dry, and recently felled, of the heaviest and best quality procurable , either of the trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth . It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces, the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches ; and both coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also . The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight , and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasionbeyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate.
5. The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption . The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line. On the other hand, it may happen, that from an increase in the number of Boats , or of voyages , or from other causes , the quantity now estimated may be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given , meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty - five per cent . on the present estimate , and on the same terms of contract.
6. The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store, will not oe in force during the last three months of the term of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price.
7. Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster, or wood not of the best quality, such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8-Government will advance to the Contractor, under approved security, one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders of the [ 142 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered , and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment, that is , that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year , when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one- fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal, but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal, the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply , and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead, the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied , pay to Government eight annas per maund, and it shall be lawful for Government to de- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in
their hands , or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract . 10.- The Party whose Tender is accepted , will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond for the due fulfilment of his engagement.

proportion of admeasurement in respect of the weight allowed, than would be admitted according to the commercial proportion, which is 40 cubic feet , or a ton in admeasurement for 20 hundred weight , or a ton in weight. But in no case is the weightallowed by this regulation to exceed , when packed , the admeasurement of 5 cubic feet for one hundred weight.
quantity of the Baggage belonging to the family of amarried Officer may be at the same time convey- ed; but it is tobe distinctly understood , that on no pretence whatever is an expense to be incurred for this object, nor under any circumstances is the additional Baggage of the married Officer to be conveyed in diminution of the Baggage allowed by this Regulation to the other Officers and Men of the Corps or Detachment .
1. The allowance of Baggage for Detachments of Troops, Companies , or Services is to be in the same proportion as the part may bear to the whole.
No. 49 of 1848.-The following para. of a Mi- litary Letter, No. 124, from the Hon'ble the Court of Directors to the Governor of the Presidency of FortWilliam in Bengal , dated 1st December 1847, and Copy of a Circular Letter from the War Office, dated 14th January 1846, are published for gene- ral information :

Staff Officers, Cavalry Officers , and Mount- ed Officers of Infantry, when proceeding by water, to be allowed specially to embark , besides the weight of Baggage according to their respective ranks, the equipment for each horse required to be kept by them in the execution of their public duties, and foraged at the public expense, in the following proportions , viz.
For one horse 10 cubic feet admeasurement .
"We transmit herewith two Copies of a Circu- lar Letter from the War Office No. 959 , dated the 14th January 1846 , fixing the allowances to be granted to Provost Sergeants of Garrison or Bar- rack Cells ."

3. The Arms and Accoutrements of the Infan- try and the Arms , Appointments and Saddlery of the Men and Horses of the Cavalry when conveyed by Sea are to be so conveyed at the public expense , without reference to the weight of alineasurement allowed for the heavy Baggage of the Troops or Companies.
4. Regimental Brevet Officers are not to be allowed the quantities according to their Brevet rank, unless they may be in the performance of the duties attaching to the Brevet rank.
G. 50121 24 SIR,-It being desirable that the allowances to the Provost Sergeants of Garrison or Barrack Cells should be at one uni- form Rate, whether the individuals employed shall belong to Cavalry or Infantry, I am directed to acquaint you that, in lieu of the Rates specified in the War Office Circular of 30th April last, No. 941 , the following are established from Ist instant : 46
At a Garrison where the number of Cells in the charge of the Provost Sergeant ex- ceeds six, .........
An allowance ex- clusive of Pay and Beer Money of Is. 2d. per diem .
5. When an Officer is ordered to proceed on duty to an Out- Station , where for his reasonable comfort and convenience it may, in the opinion of the Officer Commanding the Troops ,be neces- sary that he should provide himself with a tent or marquee out of his own funds, the same, with its appurtenances , is to be conveyed at the publicex- pense in addition to the quantity of Baggage al- lowed by this regulation .
Anallowance, ex- clusive of Pay and Beer Money of 8d. perdiem.
At a Garrison where the number of Cells does not ex- ceed six, or where the Pro- vost Sergeant acts Regimen- tally only, and is not liable to take charge of Prisoners of other Corps,
The allowance in every case to be charged and vouched in the manner prescribed in the Circular Letter above referred to.
I am further instructed to point out, that under the Rules and Regulations for the management of Garrison and Barrack Cells, Corporals are not eligible for the responsible situation of Provost Sergeants, neither should a Pensioner be appoint- edProvost Sergeant to Garrison or Barrack Cells without the previous sanction of the Adjutant General , who will communicate with the Secretary at War as to the rate of Pay tobe allowed in ad- dition to Pension .
I have the honor to be , & c. , 6. In Southern Africa, and in the Australian Colonies, when an Officer is ordered to proceed on duty to an Out- Station , where the necessaries and conveniences of life are not to be procured on the spot , or within a reasonable distance, the General or other Officer Commanding at the Station from which the said Officer is detached may, upon an application to that effect , grant his authority for the carriage at the public expense, of 2 cwt . additional of Baggage, or its equivalent in ad- measurement, belonging to the said Officer ; and in cases where the Officer , owing to the distance of the Station to which he may be ordered , and its remoteness from any town , may appear to have ajust claim to have a larger allowance of Bag- gage conveyed at the public expense, the General Commanding such cases to be special , and report the whole of the circum- stances for the consideration of the Secretary at War.

Mr. Charles Auguste Reid , Mr George Peel John An - struther,
This delay has been represented as peculiarly prejudicial to those men who, if they had estab- lished their claim at the time when they could have done so would , upon a subsequent entry in the Defaulters' Book, have been subjected only to the forfeiture of Id. a day for one year, instead of being required to wait two years after such entry before they could establish a claim to Good Con- duct Pay at all, and the Secretary at War has , in such cases been called upon to give a constrained but favorable, interpretation to the Warrant.
The following Officers have returned to their duty on this Establishment, without prejudice to their rank, by permission of the Hon'ble the Court ofDirectors :

Captain William Augustus Cooke, of the 2d Regiment N. I. , (Grenadiers ), Brevet. Capt. Thomas James Gardiner , of the 16th Regi- ment N. I.. (Grenadiers) , Assistant Surgeon Francis Thompson, of the Medical Department ,.
Although the question has entirely arisen from the neglect of the man to make that claim to which he would have been unquestionably entitled , had he preferred it at the proper time, the Secretary at War has felt it to be extremely difficult to with- hold from the Soldier that reward for Good Conduct which had been promised to him by Her Majesty's Warrant, the more particularly as it is the duty of Commanding Officers to take care that Soldiers under their Command shall not suffer by their own negligence or by want of knowledge of their own right.
Brevet Lieutenant Colonel David Birrell , of the IstEuropean Bengal Fusiliers , is permitted to pro- ceed to Europe on Furlough, on Medical Certi- ficate.
J. STUART, COL,
Secy. to the Govt. of India, Mily. Dept. The Secretary at War desires therefore that it be clearly understood, that if Soldiers shall have neglected to claim Good Conduct Pay at the time at which they may have become entitled to that reward, they will not be allowed any retrospect if their claims are not preferred on or before the 31st December next for Regiments in the United King- dom, on or before the 31st March next for Regi- ments in the Colonies ; and on or before the 31st July next for Regiments in the East Indies and in China and Australia, and that all claims to Good Conduct Pay brought forward after those dates respectively , will be deemed to be established only from thedates on which they may be preferred.

2.-Parties must tender for each division separately, and be prepared for the acceptance of their
offer for one division, and its rejection in another. No general tender will be accepted , but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel , and for more than one Division , specifying separately the rate for each . The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood. 3.-The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered , must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial , which , with
the exception of two maunds , will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted, two maunds will he returned if sent for within one werk of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted, two maunds willbe retained as a muster of the qua- lity contracted for.
4.- The Wood must be dry , and recently felled , of the heaviest and best quality procurable, either of the trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth. It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces, the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches; and both coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also . The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight , and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasionbeyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate.
5. The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption . The Government will not be pledged however , to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line . On the other hand, it may happen, that from an increase in the number of Boats , or of voyages , or from other causes , the quantity now estimated may be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on threa months' notice being given, meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty - five per cent. on the present estimate, and on the same terms of contract .
6. The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store , will not ne in forceduring the last three months of the term of the contract , but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantitiesquantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price.
7. Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster, or wood not of the best quality, such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8.-Government will advance to the Contractor , under approved security , one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders of the [ 153 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered, and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment, that is , that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year , when if any halauce be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one -fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt.
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal , but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal , the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply . Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply , and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead, the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund , and it shall be lawful for Government to de- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in their hands, or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract .
10. The Party whose Tender is accepted, will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond
for the due fulfilment of his engagement . By order of the Superintendent of Marine .

The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight , and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasion beyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate.
5.-The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption. The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line . On the other hand , it may happen , that from an increase in the number of Boats , or of voyages , or from other causes, the quantity now estimated may be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given, meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty-five per cent. on the present estimate, and on the same terms of contract.

8-Government will advance to the Contractor , under approved security , one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year , and will further on the production of receipts from,, Commanders of the [ 166 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered, and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment, that is , that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year , when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one - fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal , but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal , the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply . Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply , and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead, the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied , pay to Government eight annas per maund, and it shallbe lawful for Governmentto de- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in their hands, or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract .

2.-Parties must tender for each division separately , and be prepared for the acceptance of their offer for one division , and its rejection in another. No general tender will be accepted , but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel , and for more than one Division , specifying separately the rate for each. The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood.
3.-The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered , must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial , which , with the exception of two maunds , will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted, two maunds will be returned if sent for within one week of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted , two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua-
lity contracted for . 4. The Wood must be dry, and recently felled , of the heaviest and best quality procurable , either ofthe trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth . It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces , the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches ; and both coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also . The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight , and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasionbeyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate.
5.-The Contractor will be required under penalty maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption . The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the, full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line. On the other hand, it may happen, that from an increase in the number of Boats , or of voyages , or from other causes , the quantity now estimated maybe insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given, meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty-five per cent . on the present estimate, and on the same terms of contract.
6.-The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store , will not De in force during the last three months of the term of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price.
7. Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster, or wood not of the best quality,
such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern-
ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8-Government will advance to the Contractor, under approved security , one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders of the [ 179 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered , and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment , that is, that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year, when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one- fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal , but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract , or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal, the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply, and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead, the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund, and it shall be lawful for Governmentto de-
duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in their hands , or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract . 10. The Party whose Tender is accepted , will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond for the due fulfilment of his engagement .

SIR,-Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration, whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers, intimat- ing to the public generally, especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters , to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known, they ought to advise me, whether they wish any of their Letters, not so marked, to be sent on from Bombay by the Express.
NOTICE is hereby given , that in regard to Packets and Parcels posted for despatch to and from Arracan and the Tenasserim Provinces by Government Steamers ; the provisions of Clause 30 , of Act XVII . of 1837-(a( a Copy ofof which is subjoined for the information of the Public, ) will , from and after this date, be most strictly enforced, whenever there may be reason to suspect that any Packet or Parcel contains any contraband Article; or any Article on which Government Duty is owing.

Dy. Post Master General, in charge. Calcutta,General Post Office, the 13th November 1847.
ACT No. XVII . OF 1837 .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters, not especially marked , because, had I not done so, great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege concededby the Notification of May issuedby the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
3d.-The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express" on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched . They will invariably be detained (as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail ,) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
4th.-I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices" in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers (whether sent out from England marked " per Express, " or, posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will, in future, be Clause XXX. And it is hereby enacted, that if any Post Master General , or Post Mas- ter, shall suspect that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at his Post Office contains any con- traband Article, or any Article on which duty is owing to Government , or that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at that Post Office contains any writing in contravention of the provisions of Sec- tions IX. and X. of this Act, it shall be lawful for such Officer to summon the person to whom the Letter or Packet is directed , to attend at that Post Office by himself and Agent within Forty Eight hours after the arrival of the Letter or Packet at that Post Office , and to open the Letter [ 183 ]
Agra, 30th October, 1847 .
forwarded by the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express," but, as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so marked .
NOTICE.- Several instances having been lately brought to the notice of the Post Master General N. W. Provinces , of Officers having franked as on the Public Service communications to the Post Masters and Steam Agents , containing instructions regarding their private Letters and Parcels.
The annexed Extract from the Rules for the management of the Post Office Department , passed by the Governor General in Council on the 30th August 1837, is re- published for general informa- tion:
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolas , but, if that were acted up to , the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office , without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .
If after the date of publication of this notice, any public Officer shall frank as on " Service," a communication of the nature above alluded to, the penalty enacted in Section V. of Act XX . of 1838, will be strictly enforced .

2.- Parties must tender for each division separately , and be prepared for the acceptance of their offer for one division, and its rejection in another. No general tender will be accepted , but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel, and for more than one Division, specifying separatelythe rate for each. The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood.
3.- The Coal must be the best Raneegunge, or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered , must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial, which , with the exception of two maunds , will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted , two maunds will be returned if sent for within one week of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted, two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua- lity contracted for .
4.-The Wood must be dry, and recently felled, of the heaviest and best quality procurable, either of the trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth . It mustbe free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces, the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches ; and both coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also. The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight, and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasionbeyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate.
5.-The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption . The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line. On the other hand, it may happen , that from an increase in the number of Boats, or of voyages , or from other causes, the quantity now estimated maybe insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given, meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty -five per cent. on the present estimate , and on the same terms of contract.
6.- The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store, will not oe in force during the last three months of the term of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price.
7. Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster, or wood not of the best quality, such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8-Government will advance to the Contractor , under approved security , one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year , and will further on the production of receipts from , Commanders of the [ 190 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered , and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment, that is, that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excesв, shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year, when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one - fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal, but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal, the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply, and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead, the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund, and it shall be lawful for Government to de- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in
their hands, or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract. 10.-The Party whose Tender is accepted, will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond for the due fulfilment of his engagement .

NOTIFICATION. An Examination will be held early in April 1848, in the College of Fort William , for the purpose of filling up existing vacancies in the Military Class of the Medical College-all candidates will be expected to possess a knowledge of the Hindustani Language, adequate to enable them to read and write it in the Persian or Deva- nagri characters .

In the matter of Pierre Aubin, of Calcutta, Broker, an Insolvent.
2d. All Interpreters of Regiments and Batta- lions will be requested through the Military De- partment, not to grant certificates of qualification to any candidates, under the age of fifteen and above that of twenty years , and likewise to reject all who may not pass the prescribed ordeal with a sufficient degree of fluency and facility. Much disappointment, expense , and inconvenience have already been experienced by lads from distant sta- tions heing furnished with certificates, who were found on examination quite unqualified for admis- sion, and it is with a view to prevent the recur- rence of this, that the above measure has been adopted.
3d. Candidates for admission will be required to present themselves before the Secretary to the Medical College, at least three days prior to the day of examination , in order that a proper descrip- tive roll may be prepared for transmission to the Examiners of the College of Fort William .

Mr. Hedger, Atty.
5th. No candidate will be allowed to present himself for examination who cannot produce a written testimonial of his conduct and character , or afford satisfactory evidence as to who and what he maybe. A few individuals of decidedly bad charac- ter have, upon recent occasions , managed to obtain admittauce, it is supposed by producing false papers; the strictest care and scrutiny will there- fore be exercised in examining the credentials of all future candidates.

No. 91 . Export Overland Mail per P. and O. Co.'s Steamer "Bentinck," direct from Calcutta .
NOTICE is hereby given , for general informa- tion , that the Mails for Suez and the intermediate Ports( Madras, Ceylon , Aden , Penang, Singapore, and Hongkong, ) intended for transmission by the Peninsular and Oriental Company's Steain Vessel, Bentinck, " will be closed at this Office onTues Tuesday, the 7th proximo , and that an after Packet will be despatched hence on Wednesday , the 8th idem, with the ordinary Mail , to ensure its arrival at Kedgeree, in time to reach the Steamer, the public are particularly requested to observe that no Letters for the " Bentinck " can be received after 4 P.

ment Overland Express , they should request their SIR,-Adverting to my Letter , dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers, intimat- ing to the public generally , especially the Mer- cantile Community , that, if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known, they ought to advise me , whether they wish any of their Letters, not so marked, to be sent onfrom Bombay by the Express.
Fort William, Genl. Post Office, I The 12th February, 1843.
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters, not especially marked , because, had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office , and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked.
NOTICE is hereby given , that in regard to Packets and Parcels posted for despatch to and from Arracan and the Tenasserim Provinces by Government Steamers ; the provisions of Clause 30, of Act XVII . of 1837-( a Copy of which is subjoined for the information of the Public, ) will , from and after this date, be most strictly enforced, whenever there may be reason to suspect that any Packet or Parcel contains any contraband Article ; or any Article on which Government Duty is owing.
J. R. B. BENNETT, Dy. Post Master General, in charge . Calcutta, General Post Office, the 13th November 1847 .
3d.- The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express" on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched . They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail,) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express.
ACT No. XVII . OF 1837 .
4th .- I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express, " or posted inBombay to go by Express ) will, in future, be forwarded by the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express," but, as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so marked .
Clause XXX . And it is hereby enacted , that if any Post Master General , or Post Mas- ter, shall suspect that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at his Post Office contains any con- traband Article , or any Article on which duty is owing to Government, or that any Letter or Packet lying for deñvery at that Post Office contains any writing in contravention of the provisions of Sec- tions IX . and X. of this Act, it shall be lawful for such Officer to summon the person to whom the Letter or Packet is directed , to attend at that Post Officeby himself and Agent within Forty Eight hours after the arrival of the Letter or

2.- Parties must tender for each division separately , and be prepared for the acceptance of their offer for one division, and its rejection in another. No general tender will be accepted, but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel , and for more than one Division, specifying separately the rate for each . The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood.
3.-The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality , and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered, must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial , which , with the exception of two maunds , will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted , two maunds will be returned if sent for within one week of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted, two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua- lity contracted for.
4.- The Wood must be dry, and recently felled , of the heaviest and best quality procurable, either of the trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth . It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces, the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches; and both coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also . The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight, and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasionbeyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate.
5.-The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption . The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity , as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line . On the other hand , it may happen , that from an increase in the number of Boats , or of voyages , or from other causes , the quantity now estimated may be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given , meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty-five per cent. on the present estimate , and on the same terms of contract.
6. The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store , will not De in force during the last three months of the term of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price .
7. Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster , or wood not of the best quality, such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8-Government will advance to the Contractor , under approved security , one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders.of the [ 204 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered, and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment , that is, that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year, when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one- fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal, but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal , the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply . Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply , and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead , the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund, and it shall be lawful for Government to de- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in
their hands , or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract . 10. The Party whose Tender is accepted, will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond for the due fulfilment of his engagement.

NOTICE . With reference to the London Post Master General's Notification regarding the rates of postage to be charged upon Letters received from Bombay by the Government Express . which was published with a notice from this Office of yesterday's date, the following Letter since received from the Post Master General of Bombay on the subject, is also published for general information.

Pre-Payment of Indian ( Inland and Ship ) Postage on Covers forwarded to Hong Kong.
No. 966 of 1847 . General Department.
To W. TAYLER, Esquire,
Post Master General, Calcutta .
NOTICE is hereby given, that in conformity to the instructions of Her Majesty's Post Master General, no Letter or Newspaper will , in future, be received at this Office for transmission to Hong Kong, unless the entire amount of Indian ( In- land and Ship) Postage due for the conveyance of the same to its ulterior destination , shall be previously paid by the Sender at the time of posting at the Despatching Office .
It is to be distinctly understood that this rule does not apply to the description of covers for- warded by the Peninsular and Oriental Company's Contract Steamers, as on them, the prescribed British Packet rate of Postage is charged . Calcutta, Genl. Post Office, the 4th Sept. 1846 .
SIR,-Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers , intimat- ing to the public generally, especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known , they ought to advise me, whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked , to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
NOTICE is hereby given , that pursuant to the in- structions of Her Majesty's Post Master General , all Letters posted or received at this Office, for transmission to Europe by the Overland Mails , (whether direct or via Bombay, ) if not otherwise specially superscribed, will be sent by way of Mar- seilles.
W. TAYLER , Post Master Genl . Calcutta, Genl. Post Office, the 7th Sept. 1846 .
FREIGHT AND PASSAGE TO THE NORTH WESTERN PROVINCES .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked, because, had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice , after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked.
The Troop Boat " Soane" in tow of the Steamer " Nurbudda , " will be despatched to the North Western Provinces on the 25th instant, via the Soonderbunds
The Boat Office is open for the reception of Cargo.
3d. The public ought moreover to be most espe ciallywarned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail , ) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .

CHART OF THE RIVER HOOGHLY .
4th . I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express , " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will , in future , be forwarded by the Government Express . Sonie of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express," but, as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so marked .
By Mr. BEDFORD, Hon. Co.'s River Surveyor. The above Chart having been Lithographed , Par- ties requiring it , are requested to apply to the Calcutta Custom House , where it is to be had for 2 Rupees per Copy, which must be paid on deli- very of it to the purchaser.
By order of the Superintendent of Marine , JAS. SUTHERLAND, Secretary.
FortWilliam, Marine Supt.'s Office, the 9th February, 1848 . } 5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus, but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, withint reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until [ 219 ]

The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood. 3.- The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve
maunds of the Coal tendered, must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial , which , with
the exception of two maunds , will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted, two maunds will be

lity contracted for. 4.- The Wood must be dry, and recently felled, of the heaviest and best quality procurable, either of the trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth . It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces , the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches ; and both coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also . The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight , and at the rate of one hundred naunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasionbeyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate.
5.-The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption. The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line . On the other hand, it may happen , that from an increase in the number of Boats, or of voyages , or from other causes , the quantity now estimated may be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given, meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty-five per cent . on the present estimate, and on the same terms of contract.
6.-The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store , will not De in force during the last three months of the term of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months ' supply at the contract price.
7.-Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster , or wood not of the best quality, such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8-Government will advance to the Contractor, under approved security , one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from. Commanders of the [ 220 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered , and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment, that is , that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year , when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one- fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal , but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances, Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal , the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply, and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead , the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund, and it shall be lawful for Government to de- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in their hands , or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract.
10. The Party whose Tender is accepted , will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond for the due fulfilment of his engagement .

2-Parties must tender for each division separately, and be prepared for the acceptance of their offer for one division, and its rejection in another . No general tender will be accepted,accepted, butthe their party may tender for both descriptions of fuel, and for more than one Division , specifying separately the rate for each. The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood .
3.-The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered , mustbe sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial , which , with the exception of two maunds, will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted , two maunds will be returned if sent for within one week of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted, two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua- lity contracted for .
4.-The Wood must be dry, and recently felled , of the heaviest and best quality procurable, either of the trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth . It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces, the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches ; and both coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also . The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight, and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasionbeyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate.
5. The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption. The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line. On the other hand, it may happen, that from an increase in the number of Boats, or of voyages, or from other causes, the quantity now estimated may be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given , meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty - five per cent. on the present estimate , and on the same terms of contract.
6.-The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store, will not De in force during the last three months of the term of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price.
7. Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster , or wood not of the best quality, such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8.-Government will advance to the Contractor, under approved security , one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders of the [ 236 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered, and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment , that is , that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year , when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deductedfrom the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one - fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal , but if the
Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for
breach of Contract , or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead
of coal , the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for
every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply, and the
Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead, the Contractor shall for every maund of wood
not supplied , pay to Government eight annas per maund , and it shallbe lawful for Government to de-
duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in
their hands, or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract .
10. The Party whose Tender is accepted , will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond
for the due fulfilment of his engagement .

It is designed to Register the Medical Ob- servations, Experience, and News of the three Presidencies . In this it differs from former Periodicals, which have been chiefly confined to the Presidencies in which they have been printed.

To W. TAYLER, Esquire , Post Master General, Calcutta .
THE Government of Bombay having appointed the Ist of the ensuing month of April for the departure of the next Steainer therefrom , with a Mail for Suez- Notice accordingly is hereby given, for general information , that the latest safe date, for the transmission of letters and papers from Calcutta, which may be intended for convey- y ance by that opportunity , willbe Monday, the 20th proximo, and that the first set of the Overland Packets will he closed at, and despatched from , this Office on Saturday, the 18th iden .
Fort William, Gent. Post Office, the 29th February, 1848 .
SIR, -Adverting to my Letter , dated the 2d instant. I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers, intimat- ing to the public generally, especially the Mer- cantile Community, that , if they desire their Over- land Letters , to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile , until the system becomes ge- nerally known , they ought to advise me, whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked , to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
NOTICE is hereby given , that in regard to Packets and Parcels posted for despatch to and from Arracan and the Tenasserim Provinces by Government Steamers; the provisions of Clause 30 , of Act XVII . of 1837-( a Copy of which is subjoined for the information of the Public, ) will , from and after this date, be most strictly enforced, whenever there may be reason to suspect that any Packet or Parcel contains any contraband Article; or any Article on which Government Duty is owing.
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because , had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice , after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege concededby the Notification of May issuededbybythe London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
J. R. B. BENNETT, Dy. Post Master General, in charge.
Calcutta, General Post Office, the 13th November 1847. 5
ACT No. XVII . OF 1837 .
3d. The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express" on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail , ) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
4th. I shall feel much obliged by your favoring mewith a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express, " or posted in Bombay to goby Express ) will, in future , be forwardedby the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express, " but, as they cannot be so forwarded , it is useless to have them so marked .
Clause XXX. And it is hereby enacted , that if any Post Master General , or Post Mas- ter, shall suspect that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at his Post Office contains any con- traband Article , or any Article on which duty is owing to Governinent , or that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at that Post Office contains any writing in contravention of the provisions of Sec- tions IX. and X. of this Act, it shallbe lawful for such Officer to summon the person to whom the Letter or Packet is directed, to attend at that Post Office by himself and Agent within Forty Eight hours after the arrival of the Letter or Packet at that Post Office , and to open the Letter or Packet in the presence of the person to whom che Letter or Packet is directed , or of that person's Agent; and if that person shall not so attend by himself or Agent, then to open the Letter or Packet in the absence of that person .
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolas , but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

2.- Parties must tender for each division separately, and be prepared for the acceptance of their offer for one division, and its rejection in another. No general tender will be accepted, but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel , and for more than one Division , specifying separately the rate for each . The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood.
3.-The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered , must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial , which , with the exception of two maunds , will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted , two maunds will be returned if sent for within one week of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted, two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua- litycontractedfor.
4. The Wood must be dry, and recently felled, of the heaviest and best quality procurable, either ofthe trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth . It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces, the girthirth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches ; and both coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also. The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight , and at the rate of one huudred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasion beyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate.
5. The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption. The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line. On the other hand, it may happen , that from an increase in the number of Boats, or of voyages , or from other causes , the quantity now estimated may be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' noticebeing given, meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty - five per cent. on the present estimate , and on the same terms of contract .
6.-The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store , will not De in force during the last three months of the term of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price.
7. Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster, or wood not of the best quality, such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8.-Government will advance to the Contractor , under approved security, one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders of the [ 247 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered, and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment, that is, that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year, when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one - fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal , but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal , the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply , and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead , the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund , and it shall be lawful for Government to de- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in their hands, or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract .
10. The Party whose Tender is accepted, will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond for the due fulfilment of his engagement.

GENERAL POST OFFICE NOTIFICATION .
SIR,-Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con . sideration, whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers , intimat . ing to the public generally, especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express, they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known, they ought to advise me , whether they wish any of their Letters, not so marked, to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
NOTICE is hereby given for general information, that an Express After Packet will be despatched from this Office on Thursday , the 9th instant, with the chance of overtaking the Steamer " Bentinck" at Kedgeree .
2d.2d.-ByBy the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters, not especially marked, becanse, had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- tiesin Calcutta; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office , and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
The publicare particularly requested to observe, that no Letters will be received after 1 r . M. of the 9th instant. Fort William, General Post Office, the 2d March, 1848. No. 124. } Export Overland Mail via Bombay.
3d. The public ought moreover to be most espe ciallywarned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched . They will invariably be detained (as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail,) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express.

4th. I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express , " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will, in future, be forwarded by the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express ," but, as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so marked .
Pre-Payment of Indian ( Inland and Ship ) Postage on Covers forwarded to Hong Kong.
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus, but, if that were acted up to , the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefqre determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Governinent or the Home Authorities .
I have, & c. ,
NOTICE is hereby given , that in conformity to the instructions of Her Majesty's Post Master General, no Letter or NewspaperNewspaper will , in future, be ! received at this Office for transmission to Hong Kong, unless the entire amount of Indian ( in- land and Ship ) Postage due for the conveyance of the same to its ulterior destination, shall be previously paid by the Sender at the time of posting at the Despatching Office .

Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered , and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment , that is , that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shallbe considered as part of the advance on account of the second year, when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one-fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt.
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal , but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal , the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply , and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead , the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied , pay to Government eight annas per maund , and it shall be lawful for Government to de- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in their hands , or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract .

2.- Parties must tender for each division separately, and be prepared for the acceptance of their offer for one division, and its rejection in another. No general tender will be accepted, but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel , and for more than one Division, specifying separately the rate for each. The tenders must specify the rate per hundred bazar maunds of Coal or Wood.
3.-The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve maunds of the Coal tendered , must be sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial, which , with the exception of two maunds , will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted , two maunds will be returned if sent for within one week of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted , two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua- lity contracted for.
4.-The Wood must be dry, and recently felled , of the heaviest and best quality procurable, either ofthe trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth. It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces, the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches; and both coal and wood must be protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also. The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight, and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasion beyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at thethe above rate.
5.-The Contractor will be requirrequired under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption. The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line . On the other hand , it may happen , that from an increase in the number of Boats, or of voyages , or from other causes, the quantity now estimated may be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given, meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty- five per cent. on the present estimate , and on the same terms of contract.
6.-The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store , will not De in force during the last three months of the term of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price.
7. Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster, or wood not of the best quality, such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor.
8-Government will advance to the Contractor, under approved security, one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year, and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders of the [ 267 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered, and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment , that is, that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year , when if any balance be due to Government from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one- fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt.
9. Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal , but if the
Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for
breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead
of coal , the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for
every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply, and the
Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead , the Contractor shall for every maund of wood
not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund , and it shall be lawful for Government to de-
duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine from any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in
their hands, or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract.
10.- The Party whose Tender is accepted, willbe required to enter into the usual Penalty bond
for the due fulfilment of his engagement .

The following Act passed by the Governor Gene- ral of India in Council on the 26th of February 1848 is hereby promulgated for general information.
Аст No. II. OF 1848 .
AnAct to confer certain powers and privileges on the Commissioners for the Improvement of the Town of Culcutta , and to provide for the execu- tion of certain public works by them.
Judicature, it shall be lawful, whenever a plan for an Aqueduct shall have been approved by the Governor of Bengal , for every Commissioner, and for the Surveyor and Clerk to the Commissioners with such Assistants as they may require, to exer- cise in the construction of such Aqueduct, through- out the line of country through which such Aque- duct is to run, all the powers which by this Act it is lawful for them to exercise within the said local limits , and which may be necessary for the con- struction of such Aqueduct without being subject toany action or molestation whatever for so doing . And it shall also be lawful for any Magistrate of any district through which the said Aqueduct is to run, in furtherance of the construction of such Aqueduct , to do such acts , and he is hereby requír- ed to do such acts as it is by this Act lawful for a Magistrate of the Town of Calcutta to do, and as he is by'this Act required to do in furtherance of any work to be executed by the said Cominissioners within the said local limits.
Whereasby Act No. XVI . of 1847, it was amongst other things enacted , that the whole pro- ceeds of the rates and taxes therein aforesaid , after paying all establislınments and incidental expences should, together with such monies as the Govern- ment of Bengal, with the sanction of the Governor General in Council , might direct to be paid over to the Commissioners for the Improvement of the Town of Calentta therein aforesaid , be appliedby them to the following purposes, viz .
Formation of Tanks and Aqueducts for the con- veyance of water to all parts of the Town.
Opening of Streets and Squares in crowded parts of the Town .
Filling up Stagnant Pools of Water and remov- ing obstructions to the free circulation of air.
Lighting and Watering the Roads and Streets. Cleansing and repairing the same and the drains of the said Town .
III . And it is hereby enacted , that it shall be lawful for the said Commissioners instead of exe-- cuting any of the works which by this Act they are authorized to execute, by themselves, their Ser- yants and Assistants, to execute the same by con- tract with any individual or Company who may be willing to undertake the same, and in that case it shall be lawful for such individual or such Com- pany to exercise and enjoy all the powers and privileges whichby this Act it is lawful for the said Commissioners to exercise and enjoy in the execution of any such work .
And improving and embellishing the said Town generally.
And whereas for the effectual accomplishment of the purposes aforesaid it is expedient that the said Commissioners should be empowered to ap- point a Clerk and a Surveyor and other necessary Officers, and that the said Cominissioners and their said Clerk and their said Surveyor and other Offi- cers should exercise powers interfering with the rights and property of individuals :
I. It is therefore hereby enacted , that the said Commissioners shall , subject to confirmation or dis- allowanceby the Governor of Bengal , nominate and appoint fit and proper persons to be their Surveyor and Clerk and other necessary Officers, who shall receive such salaries as to the Governor of Bengal shall seem meet .
IV. And it is enacted , that if in carrying into execution any of the powers or authorities of this Act any house, building or other hereditament shallbe damaged or otherwise prejudicially affect- ed, the said Commissioners shall make good such damage and pay to the Owner and Occupier of such house, building or other hereditament such amount of compensation for such injury as shall be agreed upon between such Owner and Occupier, and the said Commissioners , and if such Owner or Occupier, and the said Commissioners cannot agree as to the amount of such compensation and the proportions thereof to be paid to such Owner and Occupier respectively then the amount of such compensation, and also the proportions which the persons claiming the same are entitled to shall be settled and recovered by arbitration or the verdict II. And it is hereby enacted, that for the pur- pose of constructing one or more Aqueducts for bringing pure and wholesome water to the Town of Calcutta from any place without the local limits of the jurisdiction of Her Majesty's Supreme Court of
of a Jury to be summoned and returned in the manner provided in Act No. XXII . of 1847, enti- iled an Act to enable the Commissioners who may be appointed under Act No. XVI . of 1847, to purchase real or personal property for the Improvement of the Town of Calcutta.
V. And it is enacted, that if any person at any time shall obstruct or molest the said Commission- ers or any Clerk, or Surveyor, or other Officer , or anyworkman, or other person employed by them , or any person or Company with whom they may have contracted under the provisions of this Act, or any person employed by them in the performance and execution of their or his duty, or any thing which they are respectively required or authorized to do by virtue, or in consequence of this Act, every such person so offending shall for every such offence on conviction before a Magistrate,ate, forfeit and pay any sum not exceeding Fifty Rupees.
XI. And whereas it is essential to the health and convenience of the inhabitants that straight and spacious streets and thoroughfares should be continued where they have been begun, and should be opened at convenient and suitable distances where such do not at present exist so as to perfo- rate the mass of buildings within the said Town in straight lines as nearly as maybe from South to North, and from East to West, crossing each other at right angles , and from South East to North West and from South West to North East, cross- ing the straight lines abovementioned diagonally with large open spaces forming squares or circles at convenient and suitable distances from whence the said streets may conveniently diverge in lines without interruption to the river and to the open country without the said Town so far as the com- Completion of such plan may be practicable and where not entirely practicable upon a plan as nearly ap- proaching to such plan as maybe : And whereas it is also expedient and necessary that the narrow lanes and gullys which compose the greater part of the said Town inhabited by the Native inhabitants shouldbe converted into such straight and spacious streets and thoroughfares formed as abovemen- tioned due regard being had to the compensation of Owners of houses , buildings and grounds , which may be required tobe vested in the said Commis- sioners for any such purposes as aforesaid :
VI . And it is enacted , that every Commis- sioner and the Surveyor, and Clerk to the missioners , with such Assistants as they may require, shall for the purposes of this Act, have full power and authority at all seasonable hours in the day time to enter, or to direct his subordinate Officers to enter into and upon any land or tene- ment, and in and upon the land on which any house, building or other erection is built or build- ing, or intended to be built, and into and upon any buildings or any part thereof without being liable to any action at Law or Suit in Equity, or any other legal proceedings or molestation whatsoever for or on account of such entry, or of any thing done or to be done in any part thereof in pursuance of this Act . Provided that none of the persons abovementioned shall enter upon any lands or tenements which may be occupied at the time unless with the consent of the occupier thereof, without previously giving the said occupier reason- able notice of his or their intention to do so.
VII. And it is enacted , that the management and controul over all and every of the streets, publicways and public thoroughfares of every kind and description within the said Town of Calcutta existing at the time of the passing of this Act, and ofall parts of the said Town which shall hereafter become streets, public ways or public thoroughfares of any kind or description, and the pavements and other materials therein, and all erections and buildings, materials, implements or other things provided for the said streets , public ways and public thoroughfares by or under the authority of the Government of Bengal, or by the Magistrat of Calcutta, or by the said Commisssioners , shall be the property of, and are hereby vested in the said Commissioners as Trustees .
VIII. And it is enacted, that it shall be lawful for the said Commissioners with the consent and approbation of the Government of Bengal to pave and water such of the streets , public ways and public thoroughfares existing in the said Town at the time of the passing of this Act, or at any future time as they shall thinkfit.
IX. And it is enacted, that the said Commis- sioners shall keep in sufficient repair every street, publicway and public thoroughfare existing in the said Town at the time of passing this Act, or at any future time, and shall be liable to be indicted for not sufficiently repairing the same.
It, is enacted, that as soon as may be after the passing of this Act, the said Commissioners shall causeplans tobe made by their said local Surveyor and by other competent Surveyors , shewing thedi- rection and breadth of such streets and thoroughfares, and the situations and dimensions of such open spaces to forin squares or circles as aforesaid , which in their opinion shall be the most suitable for carry- ing into effect the abovementionedvementioned objects, keeping in view the salubrity of the said Town, the conveni- ence of communication within the same, and the economy with which the said improvements may be carried into execution , together with estimates of the expence of the necessary works and estimates of the probable value of the houses, buildings and grounds, which it will be necessary for the said Commissioners to purchase for these purposes , and the said Commissioners shall select from the plans which shallbe so furnished to them the one which they, or a majority of them , shall consider the best and most eligible, and shall transmit to the Secre- tary to the Government of Bengal , the said plan and the resolution of the Commissioners thereupon for the consideration of the said Governor of Ben- gal , and upon the said Governor signifying through the said Secretary by writing, signed by the said Secretary, his approval of such plan , the said Com- missioners shall proceed with all convenient speed to carry the same into execution so far as the funds at their disposal, and the circumstances under which the works are to be carried into execution will allow, in conjunction with the other improve- ts contemplated by this Act, and in case the said Governor shall signify his disapproval of the plan so submitted to him , the said Commissioners shall cause another plan tobe drawn by the same or any other competent Surveyor, which plan shall in like manner be submitted by the said Commis- sioners to the said Governor, and so from time to time until such plan shall be finally approved of by the said Governor, and as soon as may be after such final approval of the said Governor shall be intimated to the said Commissioners as aforesaid, the said Commissioners shall proceed to carry the said plan so approved into execution with all such convenient speed as aforesaid. ments
X. And it is enacted , that if any person shall displace, take up or make any alteration in the pavements, flags or other materials of any foot or carriage way in any street within the said Town without the consent in writing of the said Commis- sioners, or of their said Surveyor , or shall cause any obstruction to, or make any encroachment upon any street in the said Town, any such person sooffending shalshall for every such offence on convic- tion before aMagistrate forfeit and pay a sum not exceeding Fifty Rupees.
XII . And it is enacted , that the said plan having been so submitted to and having been ap- proved by the said Governor as aforesaid , the said Commissioners shall proceed in conformity with the provisions of Act No. XXII. of 1847 , with the purchase of such houses, buildings and grounds as it may be necessary to purchase for the execution of such plan, and shall upon such purchase being completedgive orders to their said local Surveyor to proceed with the said works without further re- ference to the said Governor .
XIII. And whereas it is essentially necessary to the salubrity of the said Town to make provi- sion for the effectual sewerage and drainage of the same:
aqueducts, tanks and wells provided for or lawfully applied to public use, and which are not the pro- perty of any private person or persons, together with all buildings, engines, works , materials and things therewith connected existing in the said Town at the time of the passing of this Act, or which hereafter shall at any time be constructed and made therein whether constructed at the cost of the said Cominissioners or otherwise, and the entire management and controul over the same, subject to the provisions hereinafter contained , shall be the property of, and are hereby vested in the said Commissioners as such Trustees as aforesaid .
It is enacted, that as soon as conveniently may be after the passing of this Act the said Com- missioners shall cause their said Surveyor to make a careful survey of the whole of the said Town, and in an accurate and distinct report to be framed by him to state what in his opinion are the defects of such sewerage, works and drains as shall at that time exist therein , and what alterations of the same, and what new main and other sewers and drains are necessary and proper for the effectual draining and clearing of the whole of the said Town , and what reservoirs , engines , sluices , penstocks and other works are required for properly flushing and cleansing out such sewers and drains , and at and from what placeplaces such drains and sewers respec- tively ought to commence, in what precise direction they are to be conducted, and at what places res pectively they ought to terminate.
XIV. And whereas it is of the most essential importance that all the inhabitants of the said Town shouldbe supplied with good and wholesome water for drinking and for domestic purposes to the utmost extent that the local and other circum- stances of the said Town will permit, and especially that the poorer inhabitants thereof should be so supplied with water ; and whereas supplies of water are also required for the efficient and wholesome cleansing and watering of the streets , and cleans- ing the main and other sewers and drains which may be constructed or maintained under the pro- visions of this Act :
XVI . And it is enacted , that the said Commis- sioners shall cause to be constructed and made such and so many sewers and drains , and such and so many reservoirs , canals, aqueducts, en- gines and other works , and to be laid such and so many water pipes as shall in the opinion of the said Commissioners be necessary and proper for the effectual draining and cleansing of the whole of the Town aforesaid, and for the properly flushing and cleansing out such sewers in and under or across all or any of the streets and ways whether dedi- cated to the public use or not, roads and other places within the said Town, and if needful through and across all under ground cellars and vaults which they may find under any of the said streets, ways , roads or places , doing as little damage asmaybe, and also to cause such and so many rings and openings to be made or left in the sides of the said sewers as will be sufficient for the making or branching any drain or drains from any or all of the houses built, and which may probably be built adjoining or near thereto into any of the said sewers as the said Commissioners shall think fit necessarysary and expedient for that purpose ; and in case it shall be found necessary for completing any of the aforesaid works to build , carry or continue the same in into or through any enclosed lands or other place not being a public way, it shall be lawful for the said Commissioners to build, carry or continue the same in into or through the said lands or other places accordingly, and the said Commissioners may and shall cause such sewers to communicate with and empty themselves into any public river, stream , canal or water -course, or to cause the refuse from such sewers to be con- veyed by an appropriate channel to the most con- venient site for its deposit, collection and sale , and its application as manure for agricultural pur- poses or otherwise as they shall deem most expe- dient, but so that the same shall in no case become apublic nuisance or annoyance to the neighbour- hood , and all such sewers , water -courses , canals, reservoirs and other works and premises shallbe the property of and are hereby vested in the said Commissioners , and shall be at all times under the care, control and management of the said Commis- sioners and of their Surveyor and Officers .
It is enacted, that the said Commissioners shall at the same time cause their said Surveyor to report upon the existing supplies of water in the said Town, the sufficiency or insufficiency of such supply for all the several purposesposes aforesaid , and the health- ful or palatable quality as water for drinking of every description of water so supplied, or which the said Surveyor shall recommend in future to be sup- plied, and with a view to test the accuracy of his report upon this latter subject the said Commission- ers shall cause such water or waters to be analysed and reported on by competent Chemists and Medical men, and the said Surveyor shall also state in his report from what point on the River Hooghly, North ofCalcutta, water in sufficient quantity can be con- veyed into the Town for the domestic purposes of the said inhabitants , and for the efficient and whole- some cleansing and watering of the said streets, and cleansing the main and other sewers and drains which shall or may be constructed and maintained under the provisions of this Act, and shall state whether in his opinion one supply of water from oneplaceplace can be commanded adequate to all these several purposes, and from what distance and at what probable expence , and what reservoirs , engines, sluices , canals , aqueducts , pipes and other works, and of what respective dimensions are re- quired for the adequate and abundant supply of
such water for all such purposes as aforesaid. XV. And for carrying into effect the purposes aforesaid it is enacted, that all sewers and drains, together with all buildings and other works , mate- rials and things therewith connected , and all canals,

Sonie of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express," but, as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so marked.
NOTICE is hereby given , that pursuant to the in- structions of Her Majesty's Post Master General, all Letters posted or received at this Office, for transmission to Europe by the Overland Mails , (whether direct or via Bombay, ) if not otherwise specially superscribed, will be sentby way of Mar- seilles.
Calcutta, Genl. Post Office, the 7th Sept. 1846.
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolas , but, if that were acted up to , the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege concededby the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas . I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office , without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .
I have, &c. , (Sd. ) A. W. RAVENSCROFT , Post Master General.

2- Parties must tender for each division separately, and be prepared for the acceptance of their offer for one division , and its rejection in another . No general tender will be accepted, but the same party may tender for both descriptions of fuel, and for more than one Division, specifying separately the rate for each. The tenders must specify the rate per hundred hazar maunds of Coal or Wood. 3.- The Coal must be the best Raneegunge , or equal to the best Raneegunge in quality, and twelve
maunds of the Coal tendered, mustbe sent to the Steam Foundry at Kidderpore for trial , which , with the exception of two maunds , will be lost to those whose tenders are not accepted , two maunds will be returned if sent for within one werk of notice being given of the result of the tenders of the Coal sent by the party or parties whose tender is accepted , two maunds will be retained as a muster of the qua- lity contracted for.
4.- The Wood must be dry. and recently felled , of the heaviest and best quality procurable, either of the trunks of trees or large branches of not less than 20 inches girth . It must be free from bark and cut into lengths not exceeding 3 feet and split into pieces , the girth of which shall not exceed 13 to 15 inches; and both coal and wood mustbe protected from the rain and the coal from the sun also. The Contractor must undertake to deliver the Fuel on board the Steamers by weight , and at the rate of one hundred maunds per hour under a penalty of two Goldmohurs for every hour of the Boat's detention on this occasionbeyond the time necessary to take in a certain quantity at the above rate .
5. The Contractor will be required under penalty to maintain constantly in store fuel for three months estimated consumption . The Government will not be pledged however, to take monthly or yearly the entire estimated quantity, as circumstances may occur to prevent the full quantity being required, such as the withdrawal of Boats from the line . On the other hand , itit may happen , that from an increase in the number of Boats , or of voyages , or from other causes, the quantity now estimated may be insufficient ; and the Contractor will be required to undertake that in such cases he will on three months' notice being given , meet a demand to any extent not exceeding twenty- five per cent. on the present estimate, and on the same terms of contract.
6. The Clause requiring that fuel for three months shall always be maintained in store , will not De in force during the last three months of the terin of the contract, but at the expiration of the con- tract, Government will take over or transfer to new Contractors such quantity or quantities of fuel as may remain in the Depots to the extent of two months' supply at the contract price . 7.- Should the Contractor fail to provide coal equal to the muster , or wood not of the best quality,
such failure shall be considered a breach of Contract, and in such case it shall be lawful for Govern- ment through their Officers or other persons to provide good and approved fuel at the expense of the Contractor .
8-Government will advance to the Contractor, under approved security, one half of the estimated outlay for fuel for one year , and will further on the production of receipts from Commanders of the [ 278 ]
Steamers for fuel delivered on board their respective vessels by the Contractor pay one quarter of the contract price of the fuel so delivered , and at the end of the year or as soon after as it may be prac- ticable, balance the account and make a further advance to meet the expence of the second year upon an equitable adjustment , that is , that if on account of the first year advance has been made on a larger quantity of fuel than shall on winding up the year's account appear to have been supplied the excess , shall be considered as part of the advance on account of the second year , when if any balance be due to Governinent from the Contractor on account of Monies paid to him , the same shall be deducted from the sum that may be due to the Contractor on one - fourth the value of fuel supplied by him or be other- wise recoverable as a debt .
9.-Wood will not be received on Board the Government Steamers instead of Coal, but if the Contractor for that article fail in the supply, he shall be open to a prosecution by Government for breach of Contract, or if under any circumstances , Government shall permit the use of wood instead of coal , the Contractor for coal shall be debited with the contract price of five maunds of wood for every maund of coal he may fail to supply. Should the Contractor for wood fail in his supply, and the Government Boat be obliged to consume coal instead , the Contractor shall for every maund of wood not supplied, pay to Government eight annas per maund, and it shall be lawful for Government to de- duct the amount of such forfeiture or fine f om any balance of any unadjusted account remaining in their hands, or otherwise to sue for it on the Contract .
10. The Party whose Tender is accepted , will be required to enter into the usual Penalty bond for the due fulfilment of his engagement .

land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express, they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express, " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known, they ought to advise me , whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked , to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
GENERAL POST OFFICE , MAY 1847 .
2d. By the last Express 1 dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked, because , had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
The Post Master General having been informed by the Court of Directors of the East India Com- pany, that on and after the Ist June next, persons in this Country may forward private correspond- ence by the Government Express from Bombay to Calcutta and Madras, all persons desirous of avail . ing themselves of this privilege, will be required to mark upon the covers of their letters the words "By Express from Bombay , " and in addition to this special address, it will be necessary, that all letters intended to be forwarded by the way of Southampton, should be so endorsed as hitherto; the postage to be charged in India in the deli- very of letters sent by this Express will be in ad-
3d. The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express" on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail, ) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
dition to the ordinary Inland rates. One Rupee for every letter not exceeding half atola in weight.
Two Rupees for every letter above half a tola, but not exceeding one tola in weight.
Four Rupees for every letter above one tola , but not exceeding two tolas in weight , two tolas being the maximum weight of letters to be con- veyed by Express .
4th.-1 shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices" in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent outfrom England marked " per Express , " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will , in future, be forwarded by the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express, " but, as they cannot be so forwarded , it is useless to have them so marked .
On Newspapers, each Newspaper Office in Cal- cutta and Madras , will be allowed to receive two Newspapers at the ordinary rates of Inland post- age, on all other Newspapers forwarded by Ex- press a postage of five Rupees each will be charg- ed, and no Newspaper will be received for the Ex- press exceeding three tolas in weight.
N. B. One tola and a quarter is nearly equi- valent to half an ounce avoirdupoise .
5th. The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus , but, if that were acted up to , the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas . I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office , without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

Bishop's College and its Missions .
SIR,
With the sanction of the Right Reverend our Diocesan, and under the instructions of the Calcutta Diocesan Committee for the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts , com- municated to me at a Meeting held in the Palace, Chowringhee, on the 6th instant, I beg leave to lay before you a brief Statement of that Society's claims , operations , and needs, in this Diocese, with the Committee's request , that you will kindly exert yourself to make the same known, with a view to obtaining the pecuniary aid which is required , and encourage the formation of Local Associations in furtherance of its designs and for the permanent improvement of its resources .
The General claims of the Society are-
First (and also last) . That its end and aim is the Glory of God in the extension of the knowledge of His Salvation .
Secondly. That it is the most ancient Society of our Church for directly Missionary purposes , having been Incorporated by Royal Charter A.D. 1701 .
Thirdly. That it has been the constant rule and endeavour of this Society to hold fast the fellowship and doctrine of the Apostles by conducting its operations in direct connexion with the whole body of Bishops of our Church .
The Special claims of the Society on this Diocese rest upon its operations within it, which may briefly be enumerated as follows :-
I. The establishment of the Missionary Institution known as Bishop's College, which it founded and built at the instance of the first Bishop of the Diocese , (and has hitherto maintained without special aid from the Diocese) for the Education of Missionaries, Catechists , and Schoolmasters .
That not only the Diocese of Calcutta , but the Dioceses of Madras and Ceylon also are indebted to this Institution, under God , for Catechists, Missionaries , and in some cases Chaplains , will be seen from the list of its passed Students appended to this Appeal .
At the present time there are 23 Students resident within the College ; of whom 17 , intending to devate themselves to the Ministry of the Gospel, are maintained at the Society's sole cost.
1. Tallygunge .
II. In connexion with Bishop's College are maintained the- Missions of
2. Howrah .
3. Barripûr.
4. Mogra Hût .
5. Tamlook .
6. Cawnpore.
7. Saugor (to the Gonds of Central India) .
8. The Rev. K. M. Banerjea's Schools in Calcutta.
9. The Calcutta Hindustani Mission .
For detailed accounts of the present condition of all which , the Diocesan Committee begs to refer you to its last published Report, of which a copy is sent herewith .
In these Missions the Parent Society maintains, at the present date, twelve Missionaries and five Cate- chists, besides numerous Natives (Christians) engaged as Schoolmasters and Readers .
In the three first- named Missions , Christian Orphan Schools are maintained on the several Mission Premises, and at Cawnpore the Asylum for Native Female Orphans , has, from the first, been the nucleus of the Mission.
With a view to the Worship of ALMIGHTY GOD , in decency and order, and to the promoting thereby among the Converts a reverence for His Holy Name and Law, and all therewith connected , the Society has , within the last few years, built three substantial and commodious Churches , situate severally at Barripûr, Jhanjera, and Mogra Hât.
III . The PARENT SOCIETY having recently parted with the last of its funded capital (not held in trust for special objects) is now dependent, in faith on God's providence , solely on the annual subscriptions which itmay realize.
2
This exhaustion of the Society's Capital has been hastened by its liberal contributions to the Colonial Bishoprics recently formed.
Neither should the Society's service to this Diocese in founding and endowing a Canonry in the Cathe- dral Church of Calcutta, to be held by a Native Clergyman , be passed over in silence .
IV. One immediate result of this exhaustion of the Parent Society's funded property is a call on the Calcutta Diocesan Committee to provide, exclusively from its own resources within the Diocese, for all expenses of its new undertakings which may prove to be in excess of the salaries and house- rent of the Missionaries and Catechists . And the necessity is urged of a speedy extension of the same principle to the old established Missions in the vicinity of Calcutta .
V. A careful investigation into the Diocesan Committee's expenditure, in all its branches, has led to the conclusion, that no larger a sum than two thousand pounds sterling per annum is required to meet the whole incidental expenses of all the Missions of the Propagation Society, within this Diocese, as they now exist .
A sum, so disproportionate to the means of the Christian Public of British India, that the attempt to raise it seems hardly a call upon the Faith of those who are concerned to raise it provided only they can make the matter generally known . And for doing this , your aid is solicited .
But, disproportionate as it is to the means available to the Christian Public in India for the cause which the Committee would beg you to plead, it seems to shrink into absolutely nothing, when set in contrast with even the souls already under instruction in the Missions. And what then shall be said when it is con- sidered, that, until these be attended to, we are not at liberty (even if we had the power) to extend the Society's operations further among the unbelievers?
Even though the sum sought for were many times two thousand pounds, the question would at once arise, (whether we look to the numbers whom God has given into our hands to convert ; or to the numbers whom He has vouchsafed already to convert by our Ministry,)-
"What are these among so many ? "
I remain, Sir,
Your most obedient Servant ,

land Letters , to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express, they should request their Correspondents to mark " perper ExpExpress," and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known , they ought to advise me, whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked, to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
GENERAL POST OFFICE , MAY 1847 .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because , had I not done so, great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
The Post Master General having been informed by the Court of Directors of the East India Com- pany, that on and after the Ist June next , persons in this Country may forward private correspond- ence by the Government Express from Bombay to Calcutta and Madras , all persons desirous of avail- ing themselves of this privilege, will be required to mark upon the covers of their letters the words " By Express from Bombay ," and in addition to this special address, it will be necessary , that all letters intended to be forwarded by the way of Southampton, should be so endorsed as hitherto ; the postage to be charged in India in the deli- very of letters sent by this Express will be in ad- dition to the ordinary Inland rates.
3d.- The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express" on letters exceeding two tolas in weight , because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail, ) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
One Rupee for every letter not exceeding half a tola in weight .
Two Rupees for every letter above half a tola , but not exceeding one tola in weight .
Four Rupees for every letter above one tola , but not exceeding two tolas in weight , two tolas being the maximum weight of letters to be con- veyed by Express .
4th. I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express, " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will , in future, be forwarded by the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express," but, as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so marked .
On Newspapers, each Newspaper Office in Cal- cutta and Madras , will be allowed to receive two Newspapers at the ordinary rates of Inlaud post- age, on all other Newspapers forwarded by Ex- press a postage of five Rupees each will be charg- ed, and no Newspaper will be received for the Ex- press exceeding three tolas in weight.
N. B. One tola and a quarter is nearly equi- valent to half an ounce avoirdupoise.
5th. The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus, but, if that were acted up to , the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office , without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

SIR,-Adverting to my Letter , dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration, whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers , intimat- ing to the public generally , especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters , to be forwarded onby the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known , they ought to advise me , whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked , to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
FortWilliam, Genl. Post Office, The 11th March , 1848 . }
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because, had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice , after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege concededby the Notification of May issuedby the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
NOTICE is hereby given , that in regard to Packets and Parcels posted for despatch to and from Arracan and the Tenasserim Provinces by Government Steamers ; the provisions of Clause 30 , of Act XVII . of 1837-( a Copy of which is subjoined for the information of the Public, ) will , from and after this date , be most strictly enforced, whenever there may be reason to suspect that any Packet or Parcel contains any contraband Article; or any Article on which Government Duty is owing.
J. R. B. BENNETT, Dy Post Master General, in charge. Calcutta, General Post Office, the 13th November 1847.3 }
ACT No. XVII . OF 1837 .
3d. The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express" on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched . They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail, ) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
4th. I shall feel much obligedby your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices" in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express , " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will, in future, be forwarded by the Government Express. Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express, " but , as they cannot be so forwarded , it is useless to have them so marked .
Clause XXX . And it is hereby enacted , or Post Mas- thaClausey Post Master General ter, shall suspect that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at his Post Office contains any con- traband Article, or any Article on which duty is owing to Government , or that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at that Post Office contains any writing in contravention of the provisions of Sec- tions IX . and X. of this Act, it shall be lawful for such Officer to summon the person to whom the Letter or Packet is directed , to attend at that Post Officeby himself and Agent within Forty Eight hours after the arrival of the Letter or Packet at that Post Office , and to open the Letter or Packet in the presence of the person to whom che Letter or Packet is directed, or of that person's Agent ; and if that person shall not so attend by himself or Agent, then to open the Letter or Packet in the absence of that person.
( True Copy,) J. R. BURLTON BENNETT, Deputy Post Master General, in charge.
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus , but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .
I have, & c. , (Sd . ) A. W. RAVENSCROFT , Post Master General.

M. of that date .
ort William, Genl. Post Office, The 11th March , 1848 .
SIR, Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d instant, I ,have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers, intimat- ing to the public generally , especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters , to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known , they ought to advise me , whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked, to besent on from Bombay by the Express .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked, because, had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issuedby the London General Post Office , and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
NOTICE is hereby given , that in regard to Packets and Parcels posted for despatch to and rom Arracan and the Tenasserim Provinces by Government Steamers ; the provisions of Clause 30, of Act XVII . of 1837-( a Copy of which is subjoined for the information of the Public, ) will , from and after this date, be most strictly enforced, whenever there may be reason to suspect that any Packet or Parcel contains any contraband Article ; or any Article on which Government Duty is owing .
J. R. B. BENNETT , Dy Post Master General, in charge .
Calrutta, General Post Office, the 13th November 1847.
ACT No. XVII . OF 1837 .
3d.-The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight , because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail ,) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
4th. I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express, " or posted in Bombay to goby Express ) will , in future, be forwarded by the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express , " but, as they cannot be so forwarded , it is useless to have , them so marked .
Clause XXX . And it is hereby enacted, that if any Post Master General , or Post Mas- ter, shall suspect that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at his Post Office contains any con- traband Article, or any Article on which duty is owing to Government, or that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at that Post Office contains any writing in contravention of the provisions of Sec- tions IX. and X. of this Act, it shall be lawful for such Officer to summon the person to whom the Letter or Packet is directed, to attend at that Post Office by himself and Agent within Forty Eight hours after the arrival of the Letter or Packet at that Post Office , and to open the Letter or Packet in the presence of the person to whom che Netter or Packet is directed, or of that person's Agent ; and if that person shall not so attend by himself or Agent, then to open the Letter or Packet in the absence of that person .
( True Copy, ) J. R. BURLTON BENNETT , Deputy Post Master General, in charge.
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolas, but, if that were acted up to , the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

SIR , You are aware that besides the Puncha- yet at Ajmere entitled " The International Court of Vukeels of Rajpootana, " similar Punchayets have been formed at each of the Political Agen- cies composed of the Vukeels of States nearest the residence of the Political Agents, for in a Country of 1,00,000 square miles , it was very Boon discovered that Ajmere was far too remote from some of the States to enable plaintiffs to resort, and bring their witnesses to that place, for justice in international Criminal cases . The places at which Courts have now been established are Neemuch , Jyepoor, Jodhpoor , Kotah and Mul- lanee, and their Courts are composed of the Poli- tical Agent and the Vukeels of the four or five surrounding States, this brings the administration of international justice within the reach of the subjects of all the States in Rajpootana.
No 8. FortWilliam, Financial Department, the 4th March, 1848 .
2. In organizing the system, I found that some of the neighbouring States showed a reluctance to send their Vukeels to our Agent at the Capital of another State , especially in the case of Jodhpoor , where the Punchayet is composed of the Political Agent at that Court, and the Vukeels of Jodhpoor , Beekanere, Jesulmere , and Sirdhee . This reluct- ance has however been overcome by the assurance that the Court of Vukeels is not altogether sta- tionary at Jodhpoor, but that it will, with the Political Agent, move to the Capitals of the other States, or wherever its presence may be required for the administration of international justice .

In supersession of that portion of the advertisement of the 10th January last , which directed that the Advances on Goods should be to the extent of ths only, instead of the of their value , notice is hereby given, that the higher rate of Advance will be resuined , and that till fur- ther orders the Governments of Bengal , Madras and Bombay will be prepared to make Advances to the extent of ths of the value of Goods hypothe- cated to the East India Company.

3. One of the good effects of this system of Punchayet has heen , to enable me to decline to attend to the complaints of the subjects of any one State against those of another State , aud to refer complainants to the Vukeel of their own State , through whom only I now receive such repre- sentations. The Vukeels, however, generally when the complaint is well founded, carry the aggrieved party at once to the Punchayet, or refer him through letter to that Tribunal, which has had the good effect of showing all classes, that they must look to the Officers of their ownGo- verninent for obtaining justice or redress of in- ternational, as of national grievances . In the same manner, and for the same reason , I decline to listen to the complaints of British subjects, unless they bring or obtain a letter from the Officer of our Government, within whose jurisdiction they live; foreigners, who have no one to espouse their cause, come of course directly to me.

Calcutta, General Post Office, the 13th November 1847 .
Sin, Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration, whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers, intimat- ing to the public generally , especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express . " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the systein becomes ge .
[ 336 ]
nerally known , they ought to advise me, whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked, to be sent on from Bombay by the Express.
this special address , it will be necessary , that all letters intended to be forwarded by the way of Southampton, should be so endorsed as hitherto ; the postage to be charged in India in the deli- very of letters sent by this Express will be in ad- dition to the ordinary Inland rates .
One Rupee for every letter not exceeding half a tola in weight .
Two Rupees for every letter above half a tola , but not exceeding one tola in weight .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because , had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office , and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
Four Rupees for every letter above one tola , but not exceeding two tolas in weight , two tolas being the maximum weight of letters to be con- veyed by Express .
3d. The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail. ) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
On Newspapers , each Newspaper Office in Cal- cutta and Madras , will be allowed to receive two Newspapers at the ordinary rates of Inland post- age, on all other New - papers forwarded by Ex- press a postage of five Rupees each will be charg- ed, and no Newspaper will be received for the Ex- press exceeding three tolas in weight .
4th .- 1 shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express, " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will, in future , be forwarded by the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked per Express." but, as they cannot be so forwarded , it is useless to have them so marked .

5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus , but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, without referruce to that lamit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

NOTICE.- With reference to the London Post Master General's Notification regarding the rates of postage to be charged upon Letters received from Bombay by the Government Express, which was published with a notice from this Office of yesterday's date , the following Letter since received from the Post Master General of Bombay on the subject, is also published for general information.
W. TAYLER, Post Master General .
4th. I shall feel much obligedby your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, andby your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out fromEnglandEngland marked " per Express , " or posted in Bombay to go by Express) will , in future, be forwarded by the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express ," but, as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them 80 marked .
Fort Willium, Genl. Post Office, July,
No. 966 of 1847 . General Department.
To W. TAYLER, Esquire ,
Post Master General, Calcutta.
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus, but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas . I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .
I have, & c. , (Sd. ) A. W. RAVENSCROFT , Post Master General .

SIR,-Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers, intimat- ing to the public generally , especially the Mer- cantile Community , that, if they desire their Over- land Letters , to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express, " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge . nerally known , they ought to advise me , whether they wish any of their Letters, not so marked , to besent on from Bombay by the Express .
NOTICE. The following Notice of the Post Mas- ter General of London , received through the Post Master General of Bombay, is published for gene- ral information .
W. TAYLER, Post Master Geni .
Calcutta Gent Post Office, the 23d
GENERAL POST OFFICE , MAY 1847.
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because , had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked.
3d.-The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express" on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail,) for transmission by the post regular dawk, dispatched after the Express.
The Post Master General having been informed by the Court of Directors of the East India Com- pany, that on and after the 1st June next , persons in this Country may forward private correspond- ence by the Government Express from Bombay to Calcutta and Madras, all persons desirous of avail- ing themselves of this privilege, will be required to mark upon the covers of their letters the words "By Express from Bombay," and in addition to [ 344 ]

conveying to the public generally , especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known, they ought to advise me, whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked , to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters, not especially marked, because, had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issuedby the London General Post Office , and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
NOTICE is hereby given , that in regard to Packets and Parcels posted for despatch to and from Arracan and the Tenasserim Provinces by Government Steamers ; the provisions of Clause 30, of Act XVII . of 1837-( a Copy of which is subjoined for the information of the Public,) will , from and after this date , be most strictly enforced, whenever there may be reason to suspect that any Packet or Parcel contains any contraband Article; or any Article on which Government Duty is owing .

ACT No. XVII . OF 1837 .
3d.- The public ought moreover to be most espe- ciallywarnewarned not to mark " per Express" on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail,) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express.
4th. I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices " in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers (whether sent out from England marked " per Express, " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will, in future, be forwardedby the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land PapePapers marked " per Express, " but , as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so marked.
Clause XXX. And it is hereby enacted , that if any Post Master General , or Post Mas- ter, shall suspect that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at his Post Office contains any con- traband Article, or any Article on which duty is owing to Government, or that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at that Post Office contains any writing in contravention of the provisions of Sec- tions IX. and X. of this Act, it shallbe lawful for such Officer to summon the person to whom the Letter or Packet is directed , to attend at that Post Officeby himself and Agent within Forty Eight hours after the arrival of the Letter or Packet at that Post Office , and to open the Letter or Packet in the presence of the person to whom che Letter or Packet is directed, or of that person's Agent; and if that person shall not so attend by himself or Agent, then to open the Letter or Packet in the absence of that person.
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolas, but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office, without reference to that limit , and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

No. 1299 of 1848 .
AGRA , REVENUE DEPARTMENT,
THE 31ST MARCH , 1848.
RESOLUTION . The following Rules are passed for giving effect to Act VII . 1845 , regarding the Canal and Works for draining the Nujjufgurh Jheel .
I. Under the powers vested in the Lieutenant Governor of the North Western Provinces by Section I. Act VII of 1845, the provisions of the aforesaid Act are declared applicable to the Canal and Works for draining the Nujjufgurh Jheel near Delhi .
11. The Collector of Delhi as Superintendent, and Mr. E Battie as his Assistant , are appointed to exercise the powers for the levy of water- rent and enforcement of penalties under Section VIII . of the aforesaid Act.
III. The following rates are fixed for the supply of water from the Canal , or from any pools or reservoirs which may be rendered available for purposes of irrigation by the Canal or the Works con- nected therewith.

3. Rice, Cotton , Wheat , Barley, Oats. Indian Corn , Gram , Oil Seeds , Jowar, Cheenah and Pulses, 060 per Crop.
IV. Owing to the uncertain supply of water, a rateable deduction will be allowed, if the follow- ing number of waterings cannot be given.
FirstClass ,
Second ditto,
Third ditto,
8waterings per Annum .
5 ditto ditto, or per Crop.
3 ditto per Crop.
V. The jurisdiction of the Canal Officers in all cases provided for in the aforesaid Act shall extend to the distance of 10 feet from the outer base of all embankments of the Canal or of the Works connected therewith, and over all such embankments , and within such embankments over the space on which the water may be retained , or maybe capable of being retained by such embankments , and also over every plantation and building or enclosure belonging to the Government and under the charge of the Canal Officers.
VI. Persons injuring the Canal Banks, or the Canal Property within the aforesaid limits, or wilfully driving their Cattle, so as to damage the banks or the property, or otherwise acting within the said limits as prohibited in Section 5 of the Act, shallbe liable to the penalties prescribed in the Act.; but for Cattle accidentally straying the penalty shall not exceed, for

2 Annas,

I Anna,
together with the expenses of feed and keep, and the cost of repair for damage done. Unclaimed Cattle will be sent to the established Canal Pounds to be disposed of by the Superintendent as usual , and the net proceeds of the sale will be credited to the Canal. Cattle or other animals going down to the stream , or crossing it at any other places than the established Ghats or Forde will be held to have been wilfully driven, or to have accidentally strayed, as the case may be.
2d. As the management of these works involves considerations, which can be appreciated only in the Revenue Department, and as the realization of the Land Revenue in the tract effected by the waters of the Jheel depends on the efficient maintenance of the works , and as their superintendence and management can be best provided for in the Revenue Department, it seems unnecessary to keep the works longer under the control of the Military Board The works will accordingly be considered from May Ist next as Civil works , and will be managed and charged før in the same manner as the works for irrigation in Rohitcund . The Superintendent General of Canals will however continue to exercise supervision and control over these works, and no charge on account of them shall be admitted without his countersignature . In the capacity of Superintendent General he will correspond direct with the Government. There will be no objection to Mr. Battie's corresponding direct with the Superintend- ent General on all points connected with the construction of the works , provided that it be with the Collector's sanction, and that the Collector be always kept cognizant of what passes . Applications for sanction to new works must be made through the Commissioner and Sudder Board of Revenue .
[ 365 ]
3. The Officiating Collector of Delhi will take the necessary steps for procuring the detailed
Survey proposed in para. 28 of Major Cautley's Report , and will forward the Maps when completed to
Major Cautley. The Lieutenant Governor willbe prepared to take into consideration any plan which may be consequently proposed for the improvement of the works. 4 The Transfer of the Wuzeerabad Mills and of the Chowkeedar maintained upon it from the establishment of the Western Jumna to that of the Nujjufgurh Jheel Canal , is sanctioned.
5. With reference to the arrangement sanctioned on August 11th last, for the Regulation of the Badlie Dam , the Collector is authorized to entertain and charge to the works a Chowkeedar at 4 Rupees per mensem , who shall be stationed on the Dam, and whose duty it shall be to see to the enforcement of the stipulations which have been agreed upon regarding that work , and to give imme- diate notice to the Collector, if he finds those stipulations infringed.
6. For convenience of reference, these stipulations are enumerated below .
Ist. That the three upper openings in the Masonry Dam be never closed , nor in the slightest degree wilfully obstructed.
2dly. That the earthen embankment connecting the Masonry Dam with the high land on each side be increased to 20 feet upper breadth and to a height of 3feet above the top of the Masonry Dam , in order that the latter may serve as an Overfall Escape in extraordinary floods . The ends of these embankments where they abut on the Masonry may be protected by a small parapet as shewn above.
3dly. That this embankment be never wilfully cut through under any circumstances.
4thly. That the lowest sluice be either kept constantly open , or if closed that it be not opened without a week's previous notice to the Collector or to the Supervisor of the Jheel Works .

NOTICE is hereby given , that in conformity to the instructions of Her Majesty's Post Master General , no Letter or Newspaper will, in future, be received at this Office for transmission to Hong Kong, unless the entire amount of Indian ( In- land and Ship ) Postage due for the conveyance of the same to its ulterior destination , shall be previously paid by the Sender at the time of posting at the Despatching Office.

2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because , had I not done so, great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issuedby the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
NOTICE is hereby given, that in regard to Packets and Parcels posted for despatch to and from Arracan and the Tenasserim Provinces by Government Steamers ; the provisionsprovisions of Clause 30, of Act XVII . of 1837- ( a Copy of which is subjoined for the information of the Public, ) will, from and after this date, be most strictly enforced, whenever there may be reason to suspect that any Packet or Parcel , contains any contraband Article; or any Article on which Government Duty is owing.
J. R. B. BENNETT, Dy. Post Master General, in charge. Calcutta, General Post Office, the 13th November 1847. }
ACT No. XVII . OF 1897.
3d.-The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express" on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched. They will invariablybe detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail.) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
4th.-1 shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices" in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sent out from England marked " per Express , " or posted in Bombay to go by Express ) will , in future , be forwarded by the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papers marked " per Express ," but, as they cannot be so forwarded, it is useless to have them so- marked .
Clause XXX . And it is hereby enacted, that if any Post Master General , or Post Mas- ter, shall suspect that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at his Post Office contains any con- traband Article, or any Article on which duty is owing to Government, or that any Letter or Packet lying for delivery at that Post Office contains any writing in contravention of the provisions of Sec- tions IX. and X. of this Act, it shall be lawful for such Officer to summon the person to whom the Letter or Packet is directed, to attend at that Post Office by himself and Agent within Forty Eight hours after the arrival of the Letter or Packet at that Post Office , and to open the Letter or Packet in the presence of the person to whom che Letter or Packet is directed , or of that person's Agent ; and if that person shall not so attend by himself or Agent, then to open the Letter or Packet in the absence of that person.
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus, but, if that were acted up to, the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office , without referener to that limit , and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

NOTICE. With reference to the London Post Master General's Notification regarding the rates of postage to be charged upon Letters received from Bombay by the Government Express, which was published with a notice from this Office of vesterday's date , the following Letter since received from the Post Master General of Bombay on the subject, is also published for general information .

5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolas , but, if that were acted up to , the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas. I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office , without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

Pre-Payment of Indian ( Inland and Ship ) Postage on Covers forwarded to Hong Kong .
SIR,-Adverting to my Letter, dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers, intimat- ing to the public generally , especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters , to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and that, meanwhile , until the system becomes ge . nerally known , they, ought to advise me, whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked, to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
NOTICE is hereby given, that in conformity to the instructions of Her Majesty's Post Master General , no Letter or Newspaper will, in future, be received at this Office for transmission to Hong Kong, unless the entire amount of Indian (In- land and Ship ) Postage due for the conveyance of the same to its ulterior destination , shall be previously paid by the Sender at the time of posting at the Despatching Office .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked, because , had I not done so, great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issued by the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked.
It is to be distinctly understood that this rul- does not apply to the description of covers fore warded by the Peninsular and Oriental Company's Contract Steamers, as on them , the prescribed British Packet rate of Postage is charged.
Calcutta, Genl. Post Office, the 4th Sept. 1846.
3d. The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express" on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched . They will invariably be detained (as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail, ) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
NOTICE is hereby given, that pursuant to the in- structions of Her Majesty's Post Master General , all Letters posted or received at this Office, for transmission to Europe by the Overland Mails , ( whether direct or via Bombay, ) if not otherwise pecially superscribed, will be sent by way of Mar- sseilles.

6th. The Promissory Notes taken on the day of Sale, under the last mentioned Condition , if remaining unredeemed on the said 19th April , 1848, willbe placed in the hands of the Attorney to the Hon'ble Company for realization in such manner as to him shall seemfit.

WITH reference to the Notification issued by this Office , under date the 17th April last, further no- tice is hereby given for general information , that under the instructions of Government , every News- paper, Price Current, or Commercial List , which may be posted for conveyance by the Peninsular and Oriental Company's Contract Steamers , from any one Indian Port to another , shall henceforth be charged with British Packet Postage , at the rate of Nine Pie , or Three Pice , ( Three Quarters of an Anna, ) instead of Eight Pie, as formerly fixed.

NOTICE. With reference to the London Post Master General's Notification regarding the rates of postage to be charged upon Letters received from Bombay by the Government Express , which was published with a notice from this Office of yesterday's date, the following Letter since received from the Post Master General of Bombay on the subject, is also published for general information . W. TAYLER,
Post Master General.
Fort William, Genl. Post Office, } July,
The Post Master General having been informed by the Court of Directors of the East India Com- pany, that on and after the Ist June next, persons in this Country may forward private correspond- ence by the Government Express from Bombay to Calcutta and Madras, all persons desirous of avail . ing themselves of this privilege, will be required to mark upon the covers of their letters the words "By Express from Bombay, " and in addition to this special address, it will be necessary , that all letters intended to be forwarded byrded by the way of Southampton , should be so endorsed as hitherto ; the postage to be charged in India in the deli- very of letters sent by this Express will be in ad- dition to the ordinary Inland rates .
One Rupee for every letter not exceeding half atola in weight .
No. 966 of 1847 . General Department .
Two Rupees for every letter above half a tola , but not exceeding one tola in weight .
To W. TAYLER, Esquire , Post Master General, Calcutta .
Four Rupees for every letter above one tola, but not exceeding two tolas in weight, two tolas being the maximum weight of letters to be con- veyed by Express .
SIR,-Adverting to my Letter , dated the 2d instant, I have the honor to suggest for your con- sideration , whether it would not be advisable to publish a Notice in the Calcutta Papers , intimat- ing to theepublic generally, especially the Mer- cantile Community, that, if they desire their Over- land Letters, to be forwarded on by the Govern- ment Overland Express , they should request their Correspondents to mark " per Express , " and to keep within the limited weight of two tolas ; and On Newspapers, each Newspaper Office in Cal- cutta and Madras , will be allowed to receive two Newspapers at the ordinary rates of Inland post- age, on all other Newspapers forwarded by Ex- press a postage of five Rupees each will be charg- ed, and no Newspaper will be received for the Ex- press exceeding three tolas in weight.
[ 399 ]
that, meanwhile, until the system becomes ge- nerally known , they ought to advise me , whether they wish any of their Letters , not so marked , to be sent on from Bombay by the Express .
" and be heard, having given notice to the Chief Clerk " three clear days before the day ofHearing." Office of Examiner, 13th April, 1848. Mr. Hedger, Atty. Mr. Bedell, Atty. Messrs . Molloy, Mackintosh & Poe, Atties .
2d. By the last Express I dispatched as usual a number of Overland Letters , not especially marked , because , had I not done so , great disap- pointment would have been experienced by par- ties in Calcutta ; but I intend to discontinue the practice, after a sufficient time has elapsed to ad- mit of the public becoming aware of the privilege conceded by the Notification of May issuedby the London General Post Office, and to dispatch by the Overland Express those Letters only which are so marked .
In the matter of George Fraser Railey , an Insolvent, heretofore trading in Co- partnership at Calcutta , as Wine Merchant and Corn- mission Agent, together with William Newson , (now not in India. ) under the Style and Firm of W. Newson
OnSaturday, the 12th day of Febru- ary last , it was ad- judged, that the said Insolvent was entitled to the be- nefit of the Statute 9th Geo. IV. Cap . 73.
and Company. Messrs . Paul and Smelt, Atties .
RAMLOCHUN SIRCAR , of Mollungah , in Calcutta , Merchant,
3d. The public ought moreover to be most espe- cially warned not to mark " per Express " on letters exceeding two tolas in weight, because such letters cannot be so dispatched . They will invariably be detained ( as was the case on the arrival of the last Mail ,) for transmission by the post regular dawk , dispatched after the Express .
WILLIAM ABRAHAM KRAAL , of Creek Row, in Cal- cutta, Section Writer,
4th. I shall feel much obliged by your favoring me with a list of " Newspaper Offices" in Calcutta, and by your informing the parties connected there- with that not more than two papers ( whether sen out fromEngland marked " per Express, " or posted in Bombay to goby Express ) will , in future, be forwarded by the Government Express . Some of the Newspaper Offices have as many as six Over- land Papera marked " per Express ," but, as they cannot be so forwarded , it is useless to have them so marked.
Now prisoners for debt in the Gaol of Calcutta, have severally filed their Petitions, praying for Relief under the Provisions of the Statute 9th Geo . IV . Cap. 73, entitled " an Act to provide for the Re- lief of Insolvent Debtors in the East Indies , & c. " and have severally executed an Assignment to the Common Assignee in trust for the benefit severally of the Creditors of the said Ramlochun Sircar and William Abraham Kraal , of all the real and per- sonal Estate and Effects which they now severally have , or are entitled to, or which may come to , or be acquiredby them severally before the Court shall have made its final order in the matter of the said several Petitions .
Office of Examiner, 18th April, 1848. Mr. Bedell , Atty. Mr. Bedeli , Atty.
5th . The new rule limits the weight of a Newspaper to 3 tolus , but, if that were acted up to , the Newspaper Offices would be deprived alto- gether of the privilege conceded by the Notifica- tion of May last, as an Overland Paper invariably weighs more than 3 and generally very nearly 6 tolas . I have therefore determined to send two Overland Papers to each Office , without reference to that limit, and shall continue the practice until I receive orders to the contrary from Government or the Home Authorities .

An Act for better defining the jurisdiction of the Calcutta Court of Commissioners for the Re- covery of Small Debts :
Whereas by a Statute passed in the 39th year of the reign of His late Majesty King George the Third , intituled " An Act for establishing fur- "ther Regulations for the Government of the Bri- " tish Territories in India and the better Adminis- tration of Justice within the same ," it was enacted that it should be lawful for the Governor General and Council of Fort William for the time being to order and appoint in what manner the Court of Requests of the Settlement of Fort William should in future be formed , and to what amount in value not exceeding the sum of Four Hundred Sicca Ru- pees the jurisdiction of the same should extend , and to frame and make such new rules and orders , and to establish and declare such new modes and forms of proceeding as to them should appear ex- pedient for new - modelling , altering and reforming the then constitution of the said Court, and by their Proclamation to be made and published in due form of law to notify to all persons concerned such new constitution , rules , orders , modes and forms of
proceeding and the time from whence they were to have force and effect : And whereas the then Vice President in Council , with the sanction and approbation of the then Governor General , by his Proclamationbearing date the 18th day of March in the year 1802, did in pursuance of the powers and authorities given by the said Statute, order and direct that the then Court of Requests for the Recovery of Small Debts , and all powers and au- thorities exercised by it should cease , and deter- mine, and that a new Court of Requests for the Recovery of Small Debts to be composed of three Commissioners and to be called " The Court of Commissioners for the Recovery of Small Debts, " should be created in and for the Settlement of FortWilliam , and should exercise the powers and authorities in the said Proclamation particularly mentioned or referred to, and did by the said Pro- clamation extend the jurisdiction of the said Court to the sum of One Hundred Sicca Rupees and no more, and did by the said Proclamation give to the said Court full power and authority to make and frame such Rules and Regulations as might be necessary to direct the process and practice of the same , provided that no rule should be made which should be inconsistent with the said Proclamation , and that no rule or order to be framed by the said Court should be in force until the same should have been allowedby the Supreme Court of Jud cature , and that the same when so allowed should be printed and published for the information of the public , and did by the said Proclamation order that the Summonses issued by the said Court should be made returnable on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays only : And whereas the then Governor General of and for the Presidency of Fort William in Bengal in Council did afterwards by another Proclamation bearing date the 25th day of September in the year 1813, extend the jurisdiction of the said Court to the sun of Two Hundred and Fifty Sicca Rupees and no more : And whereas the then Governor General in and for the Presidency of Fort William aforesaid in Council did afterwards by another Proclamation , bearing date the 29th day of Octo- ber in the year 1819 , order and direct that from and after the First day of December then next ensuing the jurisdiction of the said Court should extend to the sum of Four Hundred Sicca Rupees and no more, and that the Com- missioners of the said Court should hold and [ 412 ]
Court shall be deemed to have been from the time of their being first used or established res- pectively, and to be valid in law to all intents and purposes , notwithstanding the omission to procure the allowance of such of the same as should have been allowed as aforesaid, and not- withstanding the non-publication of such of the same as should have been published as aforesaid, and that all summonses and other process issued by the said Commissioners , or any of them , whether issued before or after the passing of this Act, shall be deemed to be valid and effectual in the law on whatsoever day the same shall have been made re- turnable.

Commissioners , and it is expedient to remove such doubts : And whereas the Rules, Orders and Regu- lations for the direction of the process and practice of the said Court which have been established in and by the said Court have not been allowed or published as directed by the said first Proclama- tion, and it is expedient to ratify and confirm the same notwithstanding such omission : And whereas the said Commissioners have been accus- tomed to sit separately and to form separate Courts sitting at the same time, and it is also expedient to establish as well prospectively as retrospectively the legality of that practice,- therefore, It is enacted , that all proceedings hereto- fore had or hereafter to be had in pursuance of and in conformity with the said Proclamations, or any of them by the said Commissioners , or any person or persons acting ' under their authority shall be deemed to have been and to be valid in law to all intents and purposes whatever , and against all persons and bodies corporate whom- soever, and that all the powers and authorities declared to be given to the said Commissioners by the said first Proclamation shall extend to and be exercised in respect of aud shall be deemed to have heretofore extended to all matters which in and by the said several Proclamations , or any of them, the said Commissioners were authorized to hear and determine, and that all proceedings heretofore had by any Commissioner or Com- missioners whilst sitting apart from the others or other of them , or by any person , or persons under his or their authority , shall be deemed and taken to have been as valid in law to all intents and purposes whatever, and against all persons and bodies corporate whomsoever as if the said Commissioners had been sitting together in the said Court of Requests , and that it shall be lawful for such Commissioners henceforth to sit either altogether or apart, and to hold one Court or separate Courts sitting at the same time in like manner as they have been heretofore accustomed to do ; and that all rules, orders, forms of procedure , tables of fees now used or established in the said [ 413 ]

tion and circumstances in life , not exceeding in any case the daily fine of 50 Rupees : and the amount of such fine accruing due from time to time may be levied without further confirmation by the same process as is prescribed for the re- covery of arrears of revenue.
Аст No. ог 1848 .
An Act for better enforcing the attendance of pro- prietors and farmers of land before Collectors of Land Revenu in the Bengal Presidency.
II . The Collector shall forthwith report the imposition of every such fine , and the amount thereof, and also from time to time the amount levied, to the Commissioner of Revenue, who shall report the same for the Information of the local Government .
III . Every order passed by a Collector, or per- son exercising the powers of a Collector under this Act, shall be appealable in the usual manner to the Commissioner of Revenue, and other supe- rior authority, but no such appeal shall avail to prevent the levy of any fine to imposed pending theappeal .
IV. Whenever the amount levied under any such order issued for any default by authority of a Collector or person exercising the power of a Collector under this Act , shall have exceeded 500 Rupees , the Collector shall report the case specially to the Commissioner of Revenue , and no further levy for such default shall be made other- wise than by authority of the Commissioner of Revenue .
V. Nothing in this Act contained shall be deemed to repeal the power of imposing daily fines and of levying the fines so imposed in the manner prescribed by the said Regulations.
Ordered , that the Draft now read be published for general information .
Whereasby Clause 3, Section 13 of Regulation 11. 1819 and by Section 19 of Regulation VII . 1822. and Section 3, Regulation IX. 1825 of the Bengal Code, provision is made for the imposition of a daily fine by the Board of Revenue, or other authority exercising the powers of that Board on any proprietor or farmer of land subject to the provisions contained in the recited Clauses and Sections of the said several Regulations, who when duly summoned by the Collector or Com- missioner shall omit or refuse to attend , or to cause his Officer or Agent to attend, or to furnish the accounts or documents required, and shall not shew sufficient cause for such omission ; and it is further provided in and byby the first recited Regulation , that the fine when confirmed by Government is to be levied by the same process as is prescribed for the recovery of arrears of revenue ; and whereas in inany cases by the delay thus occasioned, the progress of the survey is hindered, and the whole burden of the penalty is greatly increased beyond what wouldbe necessary, if summary power were given to the Officer by whom the requisition is made, to impose and levy reasonable fines , subject to review by the Commissioner of Revenue and other superior authority, It is enacted as follows :
Ordered, that the said Draft be reconsidered at the first meeting of the Legislative Council of In- dia after the 29th day of June next.

The following Draft of a proposed Act was read in Council for the first time on the 29th April 1848.
tion and circumstances in life, not exceeding in any case the daily fine of 50 Rupees : and the amount of such fine accruing due from time to time may be levied without further confirination by the same process as is prescribed for the re- covery of arrears of revenue.
OF 1848. Аст No.
AnAct for better enforcing the attendance of pro- prietors and farmers of land before Collectors of Land Revenu in the Bengal Presidency.
11. The Collector shall forthwith report the imposition of every such fine, and the amount thereof, and also from time to time the amount levied, to the Commissioner of Revenue, who shall report the same for the information of the local Government .
III . Every order passed by a Collector, or per- son exercis ng the powers of a Collector under this Act, shall be appealable in the usual manner to the Commissioner of Revenue , and other supe- rior authority, but no such appeal shall avail to prevent the levy of any fine so imposed pending theappeal.
IV. Whenever the amount levied under any such order issued for any default by authority of a Collector or person exercising the power of a Collector under this Act, shall have exceeded 500 Rupees , the Collector shall report the case specially to the Commissioner of Revenue, and no further levy for such default shall be made other- wise than by authority of the Commissioner of Revenue .
V. Nothing in this Act contained shall be deemed to repeal the power of imposing daily fines and of levying the fines so imposed in the manner prescribed by the said Regulations.
Ordered, that the Draft now read be published for general information .
Whereas by Clause 3, Section 13 of Regulation 11. 1819 and by Section 19 of Regulation VII . 1822. and Section 3, Regulation IX. 1825 of the 'Bengal Code, provision is made for the imposition of a daily fine by the Board of Revenue, or other authority exercising the powers of that Board on any proprietor or farmer of land subject to the provisions contained in the recited Clauses and Sections of the said several Regulations , who when duly summoned by the Collector or Com- missioner shall omit or refuse to attend , or to cause his Officer or Agent to attend, or to furnish the accounts or documents required, and shall not shew sufficient cause for such omission ; and it is further provided in and by the first recited Regulation , that the fine when confirmed by Government is to be levied by the same process as is prescribed for the recovery of arrears of revenue ; and whereas in many cases by the delay thus occasioned, the progress of the survey is hindered , and the whole burden of the penalty is greatly increased beyond what would be necessary, if summary power were given to the Officer by whom the requisition is made, to impose and levy reasonable fines, suhjert to review by the Commissioner of Revenue and other superior authority, It is enacted as follows :
Ordered, that the said Draft be reconsidered at the first meeting of the Legislative Council of In- dia after the 29th day of June next.

vellers along the Grand Trunk Road have lately engaged much of the attention of the Government, Reports and suggestions on the subject have been called for from the Local Officers , and Major Steel after marching along the whole course of the Road , has furnished his remarks for the considera- tion of the Lieutenant Governor. The most im- portant of the results are embodied in this Notification, and published for general information, in order that travellers in general may be apprised of the measures , which are in progress for their accommodation and protection .
the collection and sale of their articles . They should have ware - house room , and shops rent free in the Burdasht Khanahs , but they are to have no privileges or monopoly . They should be bound under sufficient penalty to furnish all applicants at the current market price of the day. Detach- ments of troops or parties of travellers may be supplied retail , but whenever Regimental or other Bazars are attached to a Camp , the supply should be wholesale to the persons appointed to receive them. The wood should be made up in parcels each of the value of I pice , a specified number of which are to go to the maund. These should be sold wholesale or retail as may be required . The absolute prohibition against the demand of any articles , either gratis or at less than the market price, is applicable to all Government Servants as well as to Sepoys . Police or Revenue Officers are especially bound to pay fairly for what they mayrequire.
2. All enquiries show that there is a great and increasing traffic along the Grand Trunk Road. This traffic may become the source of great profit to the Zemindars and residents along the road, if effectual measures are taken in every district to protect the people from oppression on the part of Civil and Military Servants of the Government, and other travellers who may pass along its course . It is also necessary to make adequate arrangements for the supply of the neces- sary wants of travellers , and to protect them and their property from injury on the road.
3. The following measures will be found condu- cive to these ends .
8. The Contractors should be furnished by the Collector with Certificates in English and Oordoo , setting forth the obligations under which they lie . and the protection to which they are entitled, The price of all articles of fixed value must be specified in their Certificate . They must be bound to supply on requisition a Price Current of all articles of fluctuating value . This Price Current must always be presented to the Commanding Officer of a Regiment on his arrival in duplicate. He should countersign one and send it to the Col- lector for his information .
4. Encamping Grounds . These have been gene- rally marked out along the road , but there is much reason to believe that it will be found preferable to have the two encamping grounds , each of the prescribed size of 400 yards square, on the same side of the village, instead of on opposite sides. The two encamping grounds should be adjoining to each other , so that all the arrangements for the supply of troops and travellers may be collected on the spot, and permanently stored there. If this can be now effected without great inconvenience it should be done , and the Orders of March 25, 1847, shouldbe held so far modified.
9. The Revenue Officer who is placed in charge of these arrangements , is bound to see that the above provisions are complied with . It is also his duty to bring instantly to the notice of the Com- manding Officer of a Regiment complaints that may be made by the Contractors of any injury they have received from Sepoys or Camp -Followers . These representations may be made either verbally or in writing, and information should be sent of them to the Collector .
10. A Collector or Magistrate on receiving a well supported complaint against an Officer of the Army, or Detachment of Troops, should imme- diately sendsend informainformation of it to the General Officer Commanding the Division towards which the party complained against , is moving . He should at the same time furnish the Commissioner of the Divi- sion with a copy of his representation .
5. Supply of Provisions. The Orders of Janua- ry 21 , 18:33, must be carried out for ensuring the sale of all Burdasht articles on the spot. The erection of Burdasht Khanahs on the ground , or in its immediate vicinity , has been found very effective . These buildings consist of an enclosure where wood , charcoal , earthenware vessels , and other similar articles can be stored , with a few Bunneah's shops attached outside . The cost of each Burdasht Khanah is calculated at 200 Ru- pees.
6. There is every reason to believe that Con- tractors can be found who will undertake at all such places to sell the articles in most common demand . TThe following advances should be given on good security.
200 Rs .

11. Serais . There is every reason to believe that the Zemindars and Butteearahs and otherindi- viduals will , with proper encouragement, erect Serais or other places of accommodation for travel- lers at their own cost, either with a view to profit, or as a meritorious charitable act . It is on every account desirable that such efforts should be pro- moted to the utmost. Buildings of this descrip- tion are on many accounts preferable to Govern- ment Serais. The Police should be strictly prohi- bited from interfering in such matters , so as un- duly to favor any party, or to derive to themselves a profit from the undertakings . Their watch should be kept outside the buildings , and they should never enter them in their official capacity, unless to repress evident breaches of the peace, or other- wise in the regular execution of their duty. They must be strictly prohibited from levying any dues from travellers who may alight at Serais, or from compelling them to resort to particular places. Butteearahs must be protected in the fair exercise of their calling, and measures must be taken to enforce the same payments to them from Govern- 7. The Contractors should be prohibited from having any intercourse with the Police as regardsment Officers as are demanded from other indivi- [ 440 ]
the proceedings to the Magistrate for his final orders , and will suffer all others , who are concerned inthe case, and may be no further required, to pass on.
duals. If no private individual will erect a suitable Serai , it may be expedient to build one at the Government expense, but in that case, the Police must not be allowed to use any undue measures for promoting resort to the Government Serai .
12. Police. The preferable form for Murhel- lahs is that of a building slightly raised above the ground and close on the road, consisting of two rooins and a verandah in front. The Murhellahs should be built at the distance of 2 miles the one from the other . Each Murhellah should contain Burkundauze and two Chowkeedars , who should always be present at night , and each Chowkeedar should have charge of a mile's length of road immediately contiguous to the Murhellah on either side. A Murhellah of this description may be constructed for about 50 Rupees .
19. The Magistrate will pay particular atten- tion to the characters of the Police Officers, who may be stationed along the road, and he will suitably encourage the deserving. In like manner the Collector will keep a vigilant watch over the Officers ofhis Establishment, who may be entrust- ed with the superintendence of supplies at the several encamping grounds . He will be careful that the supervision of the arrangements at each halting place is entrusted to one competent indi- vidual , and that this person be furnished with written authority to act, and with definite instruc- tions both in English and Oordoo .
13. Chowkees of larger dimensions and with accommodation for a Jemadar, two Sowars and several Burkundauzes , consisting of six rooms , and stabling for two horses , should be erected at con- venient posts.
14. The Tuhseeldarees and Thanahs should be brought as much on the Grand Trunk Road as may be consistent with other public objects .
20. The Collector and Magistrate himself or one of his best qualified Assistants, will make it a point to visit the halting grounds and the Chow- kees , Serais and other publicpublic buildings along the road as often as may be practicable, and during the cold weather some responsible Officresponsible Officer should , ift possible, be charged with the duty of moving along the road , and seeing that existing rules are observed.
21. The preceding directions will indicate the nature of the arrangements, which it is considered desirable to make , though some time may elapse before all can be completed , and perhaps particular causes may prevent their universal adoption. It is intended that in the course of the approaching cold weather Major Steel shall again pass along the road, and ascertain how much has been done, and how much more may be effected towards the accomplishment of the desired objects .

Аст No.- OF 1848 .
AnAct for better enforcing the attendance of pro- prietors and farmers of land before Collectors of Land Revenue in the Bengal Presidency.
II . The Collector shall forthwith report the imposition of every such fine , and the amount thereof, and also from time to time the amount levied , to the Commissioner of Revenue , who shall report the same for the information of the local Government .
III . Every order passed by a Collector, or per- son exercising the powers of a Collector under this Act, shallbe appealable in the usual manner to the Commissioner of Revenue, and other sume- rior authority, but no such appeal shall avail "to prevent the levy of any fine so imposed pending theappeal.
IV. Whenever the amount levied under any such order issued for any default by authority of a Collector or person exercising the power of a Collector under this Act, shall have exceeded 500 Rupees , the Collector shall report the case specially to the Commissioner of Revenue , and no further levy for such default shallbe made other-, wise than by authority of the Commissioner of Revenue .
V. Nothing in this Act contained shall be deemed to repeal the power of imposing daily fites and of levying the fines so imposed in the manner prescribed by the said Regulations.
Ordered, that the Draft now read be published for general information .
Whereas by Clause 3, Section 13 of Regulation II . 1819 and by Section 19 of Regulation VII . 1822, and Section 3, Regulation IX . 1825 of the Bengal Code, provision is made for the imposition of a daily fine by the Board of Revenue , or other authority exercising the powers of that Board on any proprietor or farmer of land subject to the provisious contained in the recited Clauses and Sections of the said several Regulations, who when duly summoned by the Collector or Coin- missioner shall omit or refuse to attend , or to cause his Officer or Agent to attend , or to furnish the accounts or documents required, and shall not shew sufficient cause for such omission ; and it is further provided in and by the first recited Regulation, that the fine when confirmed by Government is to be levied by the same process as is prescribed for the recovery of arrears of revenue ; and whereas in many cases by the delay thus occasioned , the progress of the survey is hindered , and the whole burden of the penalty is greatly increased beyond what would be necessary, if summary power were given to the Officer by whom the requisition is made, to impose and levy reasonable fines , subject to review by the Commissioner of Revenue and other superior authority , It is enacted as follows :

21. Those soldiers, who accept employments which by keeping them more out of the control of discipline, expose them to a less chance of being recorded in the Regimental Defaulters' Book, and give them greater facilities of acquiring and retaining the reward for good conduct, can only be allowed to receive good conduct pay, and the honourable distinctions , and addition to pension ondisch ge, after the periods of service prescribed in Our Warrant of the 9th May, 1839 , except with the special sanction of our Secretaryat War.

Soldiers who shall have been in the uninterrupted possession of good- conduct pay for at least three years immediately preceding their discharge for disability, or by reduction, and who shall not have acquired claims to pension , or who shall be enti- iled only to temporary or conditional pensions , shall have their names registered at Chelsea Hospital ; and upon their attaining 60 years of age shall receive , as a reward for their former good - conduct, a pension of 4d. a day if discharged with one distinguish- ing mark , and of 5d. a day if discharged after having boen twelve months in possession of two distinguishing marks ; and of 6d. a day if discharged in possession of three distinguishing marks ; and this reward for former good conduct shall also be extended to soldiers who may be permitted to obtam freo discharge at their own request, as an indulgence , after certain periods of service , as described in the 28th Article of this Warrant . Those Soldiers now in our service , who accept the employments referred to in the 21st Article of this Warrant , shall have their names registered at Chelsea , undor the conditions of the Warrant of the 9th ofMay, 1839 ; but all mon enlisted after the date of this Warrunt, who may accept such employments, shall onlybe allowed to register for a deferred pension of 4d. a day , if discharged with one distinguishing mark ; of 5d. a day, ifdischarged atter having been in possession of two distinguishing marks for twelve months , and of 6d. a day, after having been for two years in possession of two distinguishing marks.

30. As it is Our will and pleasure that this reward shall be strictly an honourable distinction to be conferred only upon the well- conducted soldier , the Commanding Officers of Regiments are strictly enjoined to enter in the Regimental Defaulters' Book the name of every soldier who , in consequence of misconduct, shall have been subjected to any punishment beyond sixdays' drill , or seven days' confinement to barracks , and the commission of every offence , which shall impose upon the Commanding Officer the necessity of recording the soldier's name in the Regimental Defaulters ' Book , shall render the man ineligible for this reward for two years from that date, and, if he be already in possession of this distinction , shall deprive him of his distinguishing inark and good - conduct pay for one year ; and a second recorded offence within twelve months shall render two years of uninter- rupted good conduct necessary to obtain a restoration of such reward.
31. The Soldier having two or more distinguishing marks shall , in like manner, forfeit one of such marks , and the good- conduct pay allowed with it , for one year for each offence ; and if he shall forfeit all his distinguishing marks and good - conduct pay, and before restoration of any one shall be recorded for a fresh offence, he shall forfeit all claim in consequence of his previous goodconduct, and shall ouly be entitled to obtain a restoration of his honourable distinctions by subsequently serving, with uninterrupted good conduct, for two years to obtain one distinguishing mark, for four years to obtain two distinguishing marks , for six years to obtain three distinguishing marks , for eight years to obtain four distinguishing marks , for ten years to obtain five distinguishing marks, and for twelve years to obtain six distinguishing marks .
32. Any Soldier who , by having been recorded in the Regimental Defaulters ' Book, shall have been adjudged to have been. guilty of an offence by which he is to forfeit the whole or a part of his reward for previous good conduct , shall, if he denies the commission of such offence, have the right of appeal to a Court- Martial .
33. A Soldier may, for a first offence of a serious nature, be adjudged , by the sentence of a Court- Martial, to forfeit all or any part of the advantages he had derived from his previous good conduct, either absolutely or for any period not less than eighteen months , according to the circumstances which shall have appeared in evidence .
34. The distinction and the rewards for good conduct, granted by this Warrant do not extend to Serjeants and other Non- commissioned Officers above the rank of Corporal, and they will not be allowed, while serving , any addition to their established pay , but if permitted to purchase their discharges, or to obtain free discharges at their own request, they will be admitted to the benefits ofArticle 28th of this Warrant ; and if discharged to pension , they may, for peculiarly good conduct, on the special recommendation of Our General Commanding - in - Chief, undby the consent of Our Secretary at War, communicated to the Com- missioners of Chelsea Hospital , be allowed additions of Id. , 24. , 3d. , 4d. , 5d. , or 6d. , a day to their pensions ; provided that the aggregate pension shall in no case exceed, for a Sorjeant, Is . 10d. , for a Quarter - Master-Serjeant , 28. 1d. , and for a Serjeant- Ma- jor, 28. 4d . aday .

All Soldiers now serving , who enlisted on or before the 1st March, 1893 , shall , by relinquishing their right to addi- tional pay for length of service , be entitled to claim all the advantages of good -conduct pay while serving , which are hereby granted; but as the Warrants which wore in force at the time of their original enlistment give them a right to higher rates of pension on discharge than those which are to be granted to men enlisted after the 1st March , 1833 , they will not be entitled to have their good -conduct pay added to their pensions on discharge .
37. In special cases , however , of men enlisted on or before the 1st March , 1833 , who , by their good- conduct , have obtained one or moredistinguishing marks, and who, after short service, may be discharged for disabilities , or by reduction, either without pension or with temporary, or conditional, or permanent pensions .

Soldiers who are already in the receipt of additional pay of id. a day for length of service, may, on relinquishing their right to additional pay, continue to receive the same amount as good -conduct pay , provided their names shall not have been entered in the Regimental Defaulters' Book for at leasttwo years immediately preceding the exchange.

Аст No. XI . OF 1848 .
An Act for the punishment of wandering gangs of Thieves and Robbers .
Whereas it is expedient to extend some of the Provisions of the Law for the conviction of Thugs and Dacoits to other gangs of Thieves and Rob- bers, It is enacted as follows :
I. Whosoever shall be proved to have belong- ed either before or after the passing of this Act to any wandering gang of persons, associated for the purposes of theft or robbery, not being a gang of Thugs or Dacoits, shall be punished with imprisonment with hard labour for any term not exceeding seven years .
II . Any person accused of the offence of be- longing to any such gang as aforesaid , or of the offence of unlawfully and knowingly receiving or buying property stolen or plundered by any such gang, may be committed by any Magistrate within the Territories of the East India Compa- and may be tried by any Court which would have been competent to try him if his offence hadi been committed within the Zillah where that Court sits .

Аст №о . Х1 . OF 1848 .
An Act for the punishment of wandering gangs of Thieves and Robbers .
Whereas it is expedient to extend some of the Provisions of the Law for the conviction ofThugs and Dacoits to other gangs of Thieves and Rob- bere, It is enacted as follows :
I. Whosoever shall be proved to have belong- ed either before or after the passing of this Aet to any wandering gang of persons , associated for the purposes of theft or robbery , not being a gang of Thugs or Dacoits , shall be punished with imprisonment with hard labour for any term not exceeding seven years .
11. Any person accused of the offence of be- longing to any such gang as aforesaid, or of the offence of unlawfully and knowingly receiving or buying property stolen or plundered by any such gang, may be committed by any Magistrate within the Territories of the East India Compa- ny, and may be tried by any Court which would have been competent to try hin if his offence had been committed within the Zillah where that Court sits .
Ill. No Court shall on the trial of any offence under this Act require any Futwa from any Law Officer.
for the Settlement of Fort William in Bengal, hath been exercised under colour of a Proclamation made by the Vice President of the Presidency of Fort William in Bengal in Council , with the approval of the Governor General of the said Pre- sidency, bearing date the 18th day of March 1802, and of another Proclamation made by the Governor General of the said Presidency in Council , bearing date the 25th day of September 1813, and of another Proclamation made by the Governor General of the said Presidency in Coun- cil, bearing date the 29th day of October 1819 : And whereasdoubts have arisen as to the lega- lity of the said last two Proclamations , and of all that has been done or may hereafter be done in pursuance thereof : And whereas doubts have also arisen whether the powers given to the Commis sioners of the said Court by the first of the said Proclamations are by the terms of the said third Proclamation effectually extended to the matters over which jurisdiction is thereby declared to be given to the said Courtof Commissioners , and it isexpedient to remove such doubts : And whereas the Rules , Orders and Regulations for the direc- tion of the process and practice of the said Court which have been established in and by the said Court have not been allowed, printed or published as directed by the said first Proclamation , and it is expedient to ratify and confirm the same not withstanding such omission ; And whereas the said Commissioners have been accustomed to sit separately and to form separate Courts sitting at the same time or at different times , and it is also expedient to establish as well prospectively as retrospectively the legality of that practice, Itis enacted as follows :

11. Every Affidavit or solemn affirmation so taken shall be deemed to be taken in the said Court, and shall render the person or persons tak- ing the same liable to payment of the same fees (if any), to be received and accounted for in the same manner, as in the case of an Affidavit or so- lemn affirmation made and taken in Court .
