ENERAL ORDERS BY THE RIGHT HON'BLE THE GOVERNOR GENERAL OF INDIA IN COUNCIL .

FORT WILLIAM , 5th July, 1848 .

The following paras . of a Military Letter, No. 6, from the Hon'ble the Court of Directors ,to the rnor General of India in Council , dated 7th March 1848, are published for general information :

" Para. 1. The several suggestions made in this Despatch have engaged our particular atten- tion." Review of the Medical Establishment e Bengal Army. "

6. We must observe that , agreeably to the existing Regulations , the situation of Superintend- urgeon is considered a Staff appointment to which only " those fitted for it by a zealous and discharge of their professional duties " shall be deemed eligible , and that it is declared that ntments to vacancies will be made without reference to the order of succession whenever it may the opinion of the Government that such departure from Seniority is required for the maintenance the public interest. " "

7. If this Regulation be duly observed, no Surgeon should be appointed a Superintending son who is disqualified by age , state of health , or the want of adequate professional talents , for the rtant duty of supervising the practice of the Medical Officers and the economy of the Hospitals Division to which he is attached ."

8. We would further observe that it is the duty of the Medical Board to watch with care the ts of the Inspecting Officers , and to bring to your notice any instances in which Superintending sons maybe found inadequate to the continued performance of their duties. In any such it will be incumbent on you to place the Medical Officer in some other and less responsible e."

10. By the Regulations it is prescribed that " vacancies in the Medical Board shall be filled by selection from the Superintending Surgeons of such as shall be most distinguished for pro- sional science and the zealons discharge of their duties ; due regard being had to seniority in the vice, when the qualifications of the individuals appear to be adequate to the correct performance of duties of the office."

" 11. In calling your attention to the necessity for a due enforcement of this regulation , we will add, that if, in your judgment, it has become necessary to enlarge the sphere of selection so as for nee, to permit of the appointment of a Surgeon of distinguished talents and acquirements in his ssion, to the appointment, on a vacancy, of 3d or Junior Member of the Board, we should have esitation in according our sanction to the measure. The appointment of such an Officer in the ar of his age to be the 3d Member , would be calculated to infuse new energy into the Board, and nder it more efficient for the performance of its various duties. In this case the 1st and 2d Mem- might be selected, as at present, from the Superintending Surgeons only."

VII . In either case, the special order of the Government shall be deemed full authority, either for the trial and punishment of the person charged within the British Territories , or for conveying II .

Whereas,by Act X. of 1843, the administration of justice and collection of the revenue in the districts of Kurnool and Bunganapilly , were vest- ed in an Agent appointed by the Governor of FortSt. George in Council ; and it is now deemed expedient to restore the Jagheer of Bunganapilly, to be holden by the Jagheerdar subject to the saine conditions and reservations as heretofore , It is enacted as follows :

2.. An application for the admission of a fifth child of the late Alfred Peter Currie , named Alfreda Jane,born subsequently to the admission on 31st July 1847, of his widow and four Children to the benefits of the Fund , being considered-admission was granted from the date of her birth vız , the 11th September 1847.

3. The case of Miss Stone , which was referred by the General Meetings of 31st July 1847, and 31st January last, for want of a sufficient number of present concurrent votes, was reconsidered. Read the Proceedings of 31st July 1847 on the subject : also a dispatch from the Hon'ble Court of Direc- tors, dated 7th June last.

Resolved, that the decision of the Managers as recorded in the proceedings of 31st July 1847 , viz . that Miss Stone has no claim upon the Fund ,be affirmed.

4. An application from Mrs. J. B. Thornhill for the re- allowance to her of the two half-years' Allowances of 1847, which she had voluntarily allowed to lie unclaimed with Messrs . Cockerell , Lar- pent and Co. , the late Agents of the Fund , until it was lost in their failure. In considering such cases generally , soon after the failure of that firm , the Managers were of opinion , with reference to the regu . lated period for the payment of pensions , viz . lst January and Ist July (Rules 22 and 24) that " such " Incumbents as had not drawn their allowances at the usual date, viz İst July 1847, but had volunta- "rily allowed them to he in the hands of Messrs . C. , L. and Co. , for nearly 3 monthsbeyond that date , "should bear the loss, but they were willing to receive the explanations which may be offered by indi- "viduals, and to deal with each case on its own merits. " Mrs. Thornhill had left her allowances undrawn since the 1st January 1847. She now explains that it was owing to her being " in discussion with the late firm regarding the mode in which her allowances had been calculated and she fearedto injure her children's claims by receiving the allowances offered to her." It is to be noted that no com- munication appears to have been received from Mrs. Thornhill or her Agents since September 1846 , when she promised to furnish the necessary Estate Accounts, which have not yet been furnished. She was aware that these were uecessary in 1845, when she was admitted.

Proposed by Mr. Halliday, and seconded by Mr. Currie, that as this case is not distinctly provided for by the Rules of the Fund, it be referred for the decision of the Subscribers at large.

CARRIED.

5. Proposed by Mr. Torrens, and seconded by Mr. Harvey, with reference to the notice already . issued by the Managers dated 11th July 1848- That the Managers be requested to submit for the consideration of the Meeting on the 31st January 1849 , the propriety of altering the constitution of the Fund so far as to secure a fixed provision to the Estates of deceased Subscribers whether married or unmarried without reference to the extent of their other means , or prejudice to vested rights, to the [ 725 ]

 benefits of the Fund . If a majority of the Subcribers shall be of opinion that a change of this descrip-
 tion is desirable, and that the necessary inforination ought to be obtained to ascertain its practicabi-
 lity, the Meeting will determine in what way with professional assistance a Report shall be prepared
 on the subject for the eventual consideration of the Service and sanction of he Court of Directors.
 on the subject by the Managers under date 11th July 1846 be withdrawn . Amendment proposed by Mr. Udny, and secondedby Mr. Ward . That the notice already issued
      The Amendment being put from the Chair, was negatived.
      The original Motion was then put, and was also negatived .
      Thanks were voted to the Chairman .

VII . The word Government in this Act shall be taken to mean the Governor, or Governor in Council, or other person or persons administering I. No person, who does an act which , if done by a person of sound mind, is an offence , shall be acquitted of such offence for unsoundness of mind, unless the Court or Jury , by which he shall be tried, shall find that, by reason of unsoundness of mind, not wilfully caused by himself, he was unconscious and incapable of knowing, at the time of doing the said act, that he was doing an act forbidden by the law of the land.

For better defining the Law as to revision of the sentences of Subordinate Criminal Courts in the Presidencars of Bengal and Madras

Whereas it has been doubled how far Section V. Regulation IX. 1831 of the Bengal Code is re- pealed by Act XXXI . 1841 , and what power the Foujdaree Adawlut at Madras has under Section XXXV. Act VII . 1843 ,It is enacted as follows :

IV. Instead of proceeding under this Act, the said Nizamut Adawlut or Foujdaree Adawlut may, whenever it thinks fit, call for the whole record of any criminal trial in any subordinate Court, and pass thereon such orders as it thinks fit, but not so as to enhance the punishment award- ed, or punish auy person acquitted in the subor- dinateCourt.

Agra, Revenue Department, the 30th August, 1848.

Ist. Under the powers vested in the Lieutenant Governor of the North Western Provinces, ny Section I. Act VII. of 1845 , the provisions of the Act in question are declared applicable to the Canals and Water-courses constructed at the expense of Government from the Rivers Paha , Kitcha , Dhora and Eastern Bhygool, in Zıllah Bareilly .

2d. In conformity with Section VIII . of the aforesaid Act, the Superintendent of the said Canals is invested with the powers of a Deputy Collector, for the levy of Rents and of a Joint Magis- trate for the enforcement of penalties under the aforesaid Act, and his Assistant is declared competent to exercise the same powers under his directions and on his responsibility. The subordinate Estab- lishments of such Superintendents have the powers of subordinate Revenue and Police Officers for the aforesaid purposes . An Appeal lies direct to the Commissioner of the Division against orders passed by the Superintendent or his Assistant in the capacity of Deputy Collector, and to the Sessions Judge against orders passed in the capacity of Joint Magistrate.

3d. 'The Officers at present holding the above appointments and invested with the above powers , are Captain Jones, Engineers , Superintendent, and Lieutenant Owen , N. I. , Assistant.

N. B.- Artificial irrigation at half the above rates .

II . In the event of any person secretly taking water from the Canal in any manner, for which rent is leviable without coming under engagements to pay the reut, or secretly taking more water than he engaged to pay for, he shall be chargeable with double rates for all water so taken .

III . When from carelessness of the cultivators either in not properly closing the heads of their water-courses, or in leaving their water-courses in bad order, the water overflows and spreads over waste or fallow land or roads , a fine shall be levied not exceeding the highest rate of water rent, on the extent of land so flooded .

IV. It shall be in the power of the Canal Officers to close the whole of the branch water - courses from sunset to sunrise for the purpose of forcing the water on to the lower part of the Canal , and also when necessary for any period not exceeding three days in a week. At other times the water shall be at the command of the cultivators , provided it be in the power of the Canal Officers to furnish a supply. Persons taking water once shall be liable to the charge for the whole year, or the whole Crop , as the rate may be leviable.

V. When a branch water- course may have been formed by the owners of two or more villages at their joint expense, and the owners of any one of the villages by refusing or neglecting to clear out their water- course shall impede the free flow of the water , the Superintendent shall be competent to cause the Channel to be cleared at the public expense, and shall recover such sums as tuccavee from the owners of the adjacent village or the villages profiting thereby , in such proportions as he may con- sider just and according to the method prescribed in these rules .

VI . The Superintendent and his Assistant in realizing balances of tuccavee on water rent are empowered to proceed themselves against the persons or personal property of the defaulter, but if they consider it necessary to proceed against the real property of defaulters , they will address a requisition to that effect to the Collector of the District in which such property is situated. The Collector on receiving the requisition will proceed in the same manner as he would on any similar requisition address- ed to him by the Collector of another District .

VII . Special agreements between individuals and the Superintendent for the use of water for irrigation or driving machinery, or for other purposes on other terms than are embodied in these rules , shall be construed as other ordinary contracts are .

VIII. The Superintendent is at lilerty to reject applications for water provided they are not sent in by a certain date, viz . for the Rubbee the 1st December ; for the Khurreef the 1st April .

Orders by the Hon'ble the Lieut . Governor of the North Western Provinces .

Agra, Judicial and Revenue Department, the 9th September, 1848,

5th. The Revenue Officer is not bound take up every complaint that is made to him , nor is he restricted in his investigation to the consi- deration of the precise point , which is stated by the petitioner. He is competent to refuse an in- vestigation, where he does not consider it neces- sary, and he is competent of his own proper motion to enter upon an investigation , or to extend in such manner as he may think fit, an investiga- tion that has been commenced on the petition of a party. Herein consists the main distinction be- tween the jurisdiction of the Dewanny Courts and of the Revenue Authorities . The former cannot refuse to consider any question that is placedbe- fore them by a person who considers himself aggrieved, and must confine their enquiry to that question . The Revenue Authorities can decline an enquiry which they think unnecessary, and they can originate an enquiry which they think necessary .

The following Officers are appointed to exercise the powers of Joint Magistrate and Deputy Collec tor, from October 1st to April 30th next, along the course of the Grand Trunk Road, in the Dis- tricts noted below:

Mr. Henry Brereton , in Mynpoory ( including Putteealee) and Furruckabad.

Mr. Henry Barkley Henderson, and Allahabad. Futtehpoor

6th. An appeal will always lie to the Com- missioner on both points , viz . on the refusal to enquire, when enquiry is desired , and on the determination to enquire , when enquiry is notde- sired. The Commissioner can revise the proceed- ings of a Colisetor or Deputy Collector, without an appeal being preferred to him , and he can sum- marily reject an appeal , if he considers his inter- ference unnecessary.

Mr. John Ryeroft Best, in Mirzapoor and Be- nares.

7th. In order to ensure regularity of procedure every Collector should open a file of cases under Section XIV . Regulation VII . 1822.

The Sudder Ameen of the District will discharge the current duties of the office, dur- ing the period intervening between the Vacations .

No. 4550 of 1848.

Agra, Revenue Department, the 12th Sept. 1848 .

8th . Cases investigated under the Regulation will regard whole Mouzahs , or parts of Mouzahs , or the entire property , or one or more particular rights of an individual . They must be numbered and entered in the file according to the date of institution . Cases may be brought on the file either by the petition of a person considering him- self aggrieved, or by special order of the Officer. When a petition for enquiry is rejected from what- ever cause the case must still be entered on the file. It may be considered sufficient reason for rejection of the petition that the Collector has not leisure as it is evidently impossible that he should at once enter upon the investigation of all such questions . The petitioner always has his remedy in the Civil Court. It will however rest with the Commissioner to determine on appeal, whether the case is of so much importance as to require Notification. The Hon'ble the Lieut. Governor ispleased to invest all Collectors and Deputy Col. lectors in the Ceded and Conquered Provinces and in the Delhi Division , with special powers under Section 20, Regulation VII . 1822, and in the Pro- [ 847 ]

When a Collector by his own order places a case on the file, he must record a proceeding setting forth the grounds of hisdetermination to make the enquiry . The Commissioner on the appeal of any dissatisfied party can decide whether the grounds assigned are sufficient, or whether the proposed course of procedure is otherwise expedi- The Commissioner should be careful that the ent.

III . Every order passed by a Collector under this Act shall be appealablelable in the usual man- ner to the Commissioner of Revenue, and other superior 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 defaultby authority 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 specially 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 several Regulations .

ex- VI . The word " Collector " used in this Act shall be taken to mean any person lawfully ercising the powers of a Collector .

VII . This Act shall not extend to the North West Provinces of the Presidencyof Bengal.

GENERAL ORDERS BY THE RIGHT HON'BLE THE GOVERNOR GENERAL OF INDIA IN COUNCIL

FORT WILLIAм, 10ги ОстОВЕВ, 1848 .

'The Right Hon'ble the Governor General of India in Council taking into consideration the incon- venience which Sokliers of Royal Regiments returning to England , who are Depositors in the Government Savings Banks in India , experience by not being permitted, under existing Regu- lations, to remit to England through the Company's Treasury their deposits , when exceeding the amount of their net pay for a period of one year , and the loss to which they are exposed from fluctu- ations in the Money Market, when desirous of disposing of the Government Paper obtained by them on their Savings Bank Deposits reaching the sum of Rupees 500, (Five Hundred Rupees, ) is pleased with the concurrence of the Hon'ble the Court of Directors to lay down the following Rules , in respect to Soldiers' Deposits from Savings of Pay in the Government Savings ' Bank, which are to be appli- cable to all the three Indian Presidencies .

The amount of actual Savings from Pay, which a Soldier has been enabled to accumulate from his Pay from the East India Company with Interest, whether remaining in the Savings ' Bank or invested in Government Paper, through the Bank, is on occasion of parties returning to Europe, to be included in Regimental Pay Master's Rolls, payable to the Secretary at War, twenty- one days after arrival at the India House, at the exchange of 28. d. per Company's Rupee , and the Rolls are to be transmitted to the Pay Master to the Queen's Troops at the Presidency, who will forward them to the Accountant, Military Department, to be included in a separatearate General Roll, to be prepared by that Officer for transmission to the Hon'ble the Court of Directors , so as to leave by the first going Mail, after receiptby him of the Rolls to ensure its reaching Europe before the arrival of the parties themselves in England.

On the receipt of these Rollsfrom a Regimental Pay Master, the Pay Master to the Queen's Troops will apply to the Savings Bank at the Presidency for the amount standing in favor of the several Depositors returning home, and credit the same in his accounts to " Account Current, London . '

The Secretary to the Savings' Bank will , on receipt of application from the Pay Master to the Queen's Troops, immediately pay over to that functionary all deposits as detailed in the Roll, and if there should be any Government Paper belonging any of the Depositors which was obtained at par from deposits in the Savings' Bank , the Secretary will , on occasion of the deposits being required to be remitted to Europe , call on the Government Agent to dispose of such paper in the market, and if it be sold at a discount , the Goverument Agent will furnish the Sub - Treasurer with a statement exhibit- ing the proceeds of the sale , and the loss thereon ; and the Sub- Treasurer is authorized to pay the amount of such loss to the Government Agent, and to charge the same in his accounts to Profit and Loss."

If further anyany Government Paper belonging to any of the Depositors which had originally been purchased through the Savings Bank at a discount be subsequently sold at a greater discount,discou the dif- ference of discount between the original purchase and the subsequent sale, which is a loss to the Sol- dier, is not to be borne by him , and the Government Agent will claim it on behalf of the Soldier from the General Treasury.

If, however , any Government Paper belonging to any of the Depositors , had originally been pur- chased at a greater discount than that at which it is subsequently sold, the difference between the pur- chase money and the sale proceeds, or the gain , is the property of the Depositor .

Fort Willham, Home Department, Legislative, the 14th October , 1848.

The following Draft of a proposed Act was read in Council for the first time on the 14th Oc tober 1848 :

Act No. or 1848 .

An Act to confirm an agreement between certain Shareholders and Creditors of the Union Bank of Caloutta.

that many of the creditors are willing to agree with the Shareholders , and to give as complete a dis- charge as the law will allow , to those Shareholders who will pay such reasonable sums of money as havebeen assessed on them respectively, on account of the said debts and liabilities,liabilities , by a Committee of Creditors appointed at a public meeting ofthe cre- ditors, provided that such discharge do not work a release or otherwise affect their claims , in respect of the said debts and liabilities, against other per- sons liable to make good the same who shall refuse or neglect to pay the sums so assessed on them res- pectively; and that many of the said Shareholders arewilling to pay the sums so assessed on them , provided that they may be thereby secured from all proceedings at law or in equity , in respect of the said debts and liabilities , at the suit of any creditor who shall have executed such agreement as afore- said, and accepted any payment out of the sume so contributed; that doubts have been entertained of the legal effect of such an agreement and discharge: and praying therefore that the effeet of it may be established and defined by authority of the Gover- nor General of India in Council , without prejudice to the rights of any creditor of the said Bank who shall not execute the same, or of any creditor executing the same against any present or past Shareholder of the said Bank, who shall not have paid up in the time and manner prescribed by the said agreement, the full amount of the sum assessed on him or her as aforesaid, It is declared and enacted as follows:

1. The agreement set forth in the Schedule annexed to this Act, being the agreement referred to in the said Memorial shall be of full force as between those creditors of the said Union Bank who shall execute the same, and receive any pay- ment out of the sums contributed according to such agreement, on account of the debts and liabi- lities due to them respectively by the said Union Bank, and those persons named in the Schedule hereinafter mentioned, and in the said agreement described as the Schedule thereunto annexed marked A, being the Schedule of Assessment or contribution toward the liquidation of the debts of the said Bank , who shall pay, at the time and in the manner mentioned in the said agreement, the several sums at which they are severallyverally assessed in the said Schedule of Assessment ; and as be- tween all other persons shall be wholly null and void.

Whereasby Act XXIII. 1946 , certain persons therein declared to have formed themselves into a Company or Co- partnership by the name of " The UnionBank ofCalcutta, " and those who should there- after become Members and Proprietors of the said Union Bank , were enabled to sue and to be sued at law and in equity in the name of the person who should be the Secretary or the Treasurer of the said Bank for the time being , and certain pro- visions are therein contained for the recovery of debts and demands due by the said Co-partnership: Andwhereas a Memorial has been presented to the Governor General of India in Council, signed by Thomas Charles Morton , Esquire, Henry Burkinyoung, Esquire, Jeremiah James Homfray, Esquire, and Baboo Prosunnocomar Tagore, all therein described as Members of the Executive Committee of Management of the said Union Bank, and also by ( certain persons therein des- cribed as Members of the Committee of Creditors ofthe Union Bank ,-that is to say) Charles Hogg, Esquire, therein described as constituted Attor- ney for Glyn, Halifax , Mills, and Company, by Henry Cowie, Esquire, and by Thomas Seddon Kelsall, Esquire, setting forth , that the said Joint Stock Banking Company or Union Bank of Calcutta suspended payment about the close of last year, and that the remaining assets of the said Bank are insufficient to satisfy the outstand- ing debts and liabilities : that several Creditors ofthe Bank have obtained judgments against the public Officer under the said Act XXIII . 1845 , and the assets of the Bank being insuficient, certain of the said judgments are put suit against individual Shareholders ; and that . the Me- ders ; and morialists fear that, unless some mutually, satisfac- tory arrangement can be immediately made between the Creditors and thethe Shareholders,Shareholders , an enormous sacrifice of property speedily take place, and a great number of persons he involved in utter ruin :

[ 942 ]

     11.  If any creditor of the said Bank who shall   said Union Bank, of an immediate first dividend
  have executed the said agreement shall thereafter    of twenty- five (25) per cent . upon our respective
   sue out any Writ of Scire Facias, or take any       claims, to accept the Schedule hereunto annexed,
  other proceeding at law or in equity on account of   marked A. (which has been framed by a Committee
  any debt or liability of the said Union Bank         of Creditors of the Bank ) as the Schedule of
  against any person named in the said Schedule of    Assessment or contribution towards the liquida-
  Assessment , who shall pay, at the time and in the   tion of the debts of the said Bank of the several
