Report on the Cultivation of Cinchona at Darjeeling, during the month of September 1867 .
From T. ANDERSON , ESQ. , M. D. , Superintendent , Botanical Gardens , and in charge of Cinchona Cultivation in Bengal , to the Junior Secretary to the Government of Bengal, (No . 101 , dated Botanical Gardens , the 16th December 1867. )
SIR,
I HAVE the honor to forward the Report on the cultivation of Cinchona at Darjeeling, during the month of September 1867 .
Report on the cul'ivation of Cinchona at Darjeeling , during the month of September 1867 .
91,510 plants of Cinchona were planted in the open air plantations in the ground that had been prepared during August . 60,000 of these plants belongs to the Red bark , and 31,000 to the varieties of Crown bark . The remaining 510 plants consisted of C. Micrantha and C. Calisaya . 47,000 plants of C. Succirubra and 50,000 of C. Officinalis were planted in open air nurseries . The stock plants of C. Calisaya were increased by the addition of 225 plants . This species is growing with great luxuriance on northern , well drained slopes at 2,000 and 3,000 feet above the sea . $ 1,000 cuttings were made during the month .
The weather during September was most favorable for vegetation ; abundance of rain fell in heavy showers (the amount of rain during the month was 29.7 inches ) but there were fre- quent bright sunny intervals. Every endeavour was used to keep the plantations free from weeds and long grass as nothing conduces more to the healthy growth of Cinchonas than free exposure to air and light and frequent light hœing of the soil near the roots of the plants . The total number of plants in all stages of growth on the 30th September was 1,233,258 of which 392,547 were in permanent open air plantations, covering an area of about 350 acres .
Tuble shewing the temperature of the month at the different plantations .

To all Sessions Judges and Magistrates ,-(dated Calcutta, the 16th December 1867. )
The form herewith enclosed is to be substituted for that hitherto used for the Annual Register of

An explanation will be called for when the outstandings of any year are excessive.

Report on the Closing of the Famine Relief Operations in Orissa .
From A. B. SHEKLETON , ESQ. , Secretary , Orissa Famine and Orphan Relief Fund , to H. L. HARRISON , Esq. , Jumor Secretary to the Governinent of Bengal ,-(No . 163 , dated Calcutta, the 3rd January 1868 )
THE Executive Committee of the Orissa Famine and Orphan Relief Fund direct me to forward the accompanying printed letter, No. 1450, from the Special Famine Commissioner , for the information of His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor .
From E. W. MOLONY, Esq. , Special Famine Commissioner, Cuttack , to A. B. SHEKLETON , Esq. , Secretary to the Orissa Famine and Orphan Relief Committee , Calcutta,- (No. 1450.)
My last Report to the Committee was dated the 26th of October , since which time I had the honor of informing the Chairman and yourself, of the progress which has been made in closing relief operations to the end of December. I returned to Cuttack on the 3rd instant , and have now to report as follows regarding each of the Districts in the Province :-
Balasore , All the centres and hospitals have been finally closed. Mr. Rampini reporting on the 15th instant that he had transferred the remaining sick paupers-only six in number-to the Pilgrim Hospital. There will be no further expense incurred in gratuitous relief in this District . The cotton and weaving relief have also been discontinued, and it only remains to wind up the accounts and dispose of the manufactured and unınanufactured stock. The employment given to laboring paupers on the roads is still kept up , as the local and civil officers are not in a position to take them on just now, having expended so great à proportion of their funds during the early part of the season. I have directed the Relief Manager not to turn them adrift, but to continue them , if possible, at the ordinary rates , so that full value may be had for their work . There is not a very large stock of rice on hand , and it seems probable that it will be disposed of. The Relief Manager has been authorised to reduce the rates so as to clear it as quickly as possible , and enable him to dispense with the establishments at the depôts . The special staff of Deputy Collectors , Sub - Assistant Surgeons , and Native Doctors, has been removed ; and the Relief Manager has been placed in charge of the Sub- Division of Bhuddruck, where he will be able to conduct the final closing of accounts and clearing of stocks . The harvest is a plentiful one, and distress at an end .
[12 ]
Cuttack. The closing of centres has progressed rapidly. By last reports there were only two left, and one of them was in process of being closed . The other is in Cuttack town , and will not be maintained very long, and no longer than is absolutely necessary. The result of the late operations has been very satisfactory in this respect , thatit is found that it will not be necessary to provide for any considerable number of helpless paupers in almshouses or hospitals . The only hospital which will be kept open for any time' is the Chowliagunge one in Cuttack itself, and that not for more than two or three months of the coming year. The Committee will recollect it was at one time thought that a large number of infirm and helpless people would be left requiring support . The people who quit the centres are finding employment in harvesting the crop , and those who desire it are allowed to shelter in the old centre buildings until they can make other arrangements . The cotton weaving and light labor relief are, it may be said , now closed , and the village relief is continued to but very few indeed . The accounts are all in process of being closed , and I am glad to say there has been a tolerably brisk demand for thread and cloth of late. It is probable that all the stock will be disposed of before the end of the cold season. The stock of rice is still large, but every effort is being made to dispose of it at cheap rates , in conformity with the wishes of the Committee. Deputy Collectors Mr. Jones , Baboos Anund Chunder Scin, and Juggut Chunder Gangooly have been transferred from relief to other Government duty . Baboos Hurry Nath Chatterjee and Hurro Khally Mookerjee are under orders , and will not be retained for relief work beyond 31st instant , Mr. D'Silva is engaged on the accounts , and will have to be retained until they are finally closed. Dr. Fonsworth is under orders to pro- ceed to Calcutta, and only two Native Doctors are retained , one of whom will be at liberty in a few days . The relief establishments are being reduced gra- dually as it becomes possible . The prospects of the District are bright, and things are daily improving .
Pooree. Everything in the shape of gratuitous relief has , I believe, been closed in this District, except the payments for a few infirm paupers in the charitable dispensaries of Pooree and Khoordah , which institutions require some assistance on account of the extra numbers thrown upon them . There will be nothing but disposal of stocks of rice , thread, cloth , and the above expenses to meet after the 31st instant . The rice hangs on hand very much : it has been difficult to dispose of all along , and now even the rate of 14 annas per maund for clean, and ten for mixed Burmah rice will not tempt the people to purchase. The Sub -Assistant Surgeon and all the Medical Staff are under orders, or have been dispensed with. Deputy Collectors Mr. Ellis and Baboo Bijoy Mahdeb Mookerjee have been transferredto Calcutta. Baboo Sitakunt Mookerjee is under orders for employment on other Government work, and will not be retained beyond the 31st instant . The Relief Manager is engaged in the business of making a final closing of everything . The crop is a very good one generally, and the country rapidly recovering from the effects of the famine.
a sin in times of famine . The Committee will be glad to hear that there has been an active move- ment amongst the members of the native community regarding the restoration As it is declared in " Manu" not to be to caste of those supposed to have lost it by eating at relief centres , and an opinion has been given which imposes a moderate penance. There is little doubt that this will exercise a most beneficial effect in eradicating the effects of the famine upon those who bave been thrown on the public charity, and upon the country in general , as it will so materially assist in the absorption of the dis- tressed into the general community, and will enable relatives to assist those to whom they would otherwise not have been willing to give a helping hand , and to receive them into their houses . thave
The Orphanage returns called for in your letter of the 3rd instant are under preparation, and I hope to be able shortly to submit them to enable the Committee to make the investment proposed , and bring in the new arrange- ment from the 1st of January . To facilitate this I shall act on the princi- ple of it from that date . I also hope to submit such information, made up to the 31st December , as will enable them to give a clear statement of affairs to the public and Government, preparatory to issuing a final report , This plan [ 13 ]
I propose after communication with the Relief Manager of Cuttack, as I find that complete statistics will not be available so soon as the Committee wish , and as I am convinced that any slight delay will be compensated for by the additional utility of the report , which should , if possible, be made to contain all information regarding famine relief that has been acquired by the experi- ence of the working of the Committee's extensive operations , and which may be made available should necessity arise in future for the relief of general dis- tress in this or other parts of the Empire .

Withdrawal of the prohibition to export Rice from Orissa .
that a reasojably large stock may be allowed to remain, sufficient to keep in check the monopolist dealers, and to keep down their prices should this be found necessary next year .
From H. L. HARRISON , ESQ , Junior Secretary to the Government of Bengal , to the Secretary to the Govern- ment of India,-(No . 4596 , datod the 24th December 1867.
From Board of Revenne, Lower Provincos , No 18181. , dated th November 1867 .
From Board of Revenue, Lower Provinces , No. 19171. , dated 26th November 1887 . Froin Board of Revenue, Lower Provinces, No. 19631. , dated 9th December 1867 .
ks , and 5. After carefully considering these two alternatives, the Lieutenant - Governor is disposed to give the preference to that of retaining a large portion of the Government stocks , removing the prohibition against exportation as speedily as possible, as involving the least degree of interference with the people and with the operations of trade . But as this is a very im- portant question, and one which determines the general policy to be pursued in Orissa during the ensuing year, His Honor desires , before taking action on the views expressed above, to be in- formed whether they meet with the approval of His Excellency the Governor General in Council . An early reply is solicited, to enable the prohibition to be removed as soon as possible, if that course Excellency t be decided on .
In continuation of the endorsement from this office, No. 4110 , dated the lõth ultimo, I am directed to herewith, for the con- forward sideration and orders of His Excellency the Governor General in Council, a copy of the papers cited in the margin , on the subject of the expenditure and balance of Government rice in Orissa during the month of October last , and of the advisability of disposing of the existing stocks .
From J. GROGHEGAN , Esq ., Under -Secretary to the Government of India , to H. L. HARRISON, ESQ. , Junior Secretary to the Government of Bengal ,--( No . 60, dated the 7th January 1868.)
2. The Lieutenant-Governor, while admitting that there is muen force in the reasons brought forward by the Board for simultaneously removing the prohibition on exportation , and also taking active steps to dispose of the stocks in hand on as favorable terms as possible, is still of opinion that it wouldbe more prudent to abstain from taking both these steps at the same time. It seems clear that existing stocks , until replenished by the present crop , must still be very low throughout the Cuttack and Pooree districts . On the other hand ready money is much wanted in the Province, and if the exporter were to go into the market with money in his hand while the producers are dazzled by the abundant yield of the new crop , and the petty purchaser has his golahs over - full, it is not unlikely that he might carry off more than is desirable , to an extent that the people would themselves have cause to regret a few months later .
I AM directed to acknowledge the receipt of your letter No. 4596, dated the 24th ultimo, with enclosures , on the subject of the expenditure , and balance of Government rice in Orissa, during the month of October last , and of the course to be pursued in that Province during the ensuing year . 2. In reply I am directed to state that the Governor General in Council concurs with the Lieutenant -Governor, and sanctions the adoption of the 2nd of His Honor's alternative proposals , i . e . , the withdrawal of the prohibition to export rice and the retention in the Province of a large propor- tion of the present stock in the hands of Govern- ment.
From H. L. HARRISON, Esq. , Junior Secretary to the Government of Bengal , to the Secretary to the Board of Revenue, Lower Provinces ,-(No . 157, dated the 13th January 1868. )
3. Under these circumstances two alternatives suggest themselves to the Lieutenant-Governor , either ( 1 ) to sell off the Government stocks, as proposed by the Board, and to continue the pro- hibition against the exportation of rice until next April, thus leading the Province to replenish its stocks by keeping all of this year's crop which it cannot export by land, or (2 ) toto withdraw the prohibition at once as recommended by the Board , and as a measure of precaution against an excessive drain, to retain in the Province a large proportion of the present stock in the hands of Government , in spite of the possibility or even probability of thereby incurring some further loss.
To the Government of India, Home Department , No. 4596, dated 24th December 1867 . From the Government of India, Home Depart ment, No. 60, dated 7th January1868.
WITH reference to your letter No. 19631. , dated the 9th ultimo, and previous communications , I amdirect- ed to forvard herewith a copy of the correspondence cited in the margin, and to request that the Board will give their early attention letter of this Government , the suggestions contained in which should be carefully attended to . to paragraph 4 of the
4. If the latter alternative be adopted the Lieutenant- Governor would on no account clear off the Government stocks before March next, by which time it will be seen how far the people have availed themselves of the permission to sell for ex- port . His Honor would merely order the immediate sale of the rice which is suffering from damp and weevils , and the clearance of the Golahs at which comparatively small quantities are stored, so as to concentrate what is kept, and reduce the cost of establishment as far as possible . It should be remembered that in addition to the 6,31,532 maunds of rice now in store, the Relief Committee will probably restore to Go- vernment a considerable quantity which will be left upon their hands . It is not therefore in tended that all this rice should be kept if the prohibition against exporting is withdrawn, but
2. The correspondence will be published in the next Gazette, and I am to request that the Board will at once submit , for the information of Government, copy of any instructions which they may issne to the Commissioner of the Cuttack Division on the subject . A Telegram has this way been sent to the Commissioner, requesting him at once to make the withdrawal of the prohibi- tion to export rice widely known in the Province.

obtain the practical experience connected with the subject, which is so valuable in an important and costly undertaking like the improvement of the Port of Calcutta.
Dated the 28th Nov The annexed able report by Mr. Leonard enters very fully into the question and shews the like- lihood of jetties being the form that the improvement of the Port will even- tually take ; but however this may be , it is evi- mber1866 . dent that , although it is possible that these jetties may not prove the most perfect form of landing arrangement, still they are certain to prove very efficient and a great advantage to the l'ort , whilst the experience thatthat they will afford in regard to loading and unloading theI unloading the shipping from wharves will, as already noticed , be of the greatest value in eventual arrangements .
Under these circumstances the Lieutenant- Governor is opinion that it is most desirable that the work should be carried out with the least practicable delay , and the cost of these jetties will by no means be expenditure thrown away, as such expenditure must be most useful , and it is exceedingly unlikely that a scheme already well- considered and fully approved of by the present Port Trust Committee would meet with disappro- val from any future body charged with the im- provement of the Port of Calcutta . * *

Whatever the nature of the works which are required to meet the views of the Committee shall be , I think it is quite certain that they should be such as may form part of an ultimate, complete scheme-at any rate such as will afford the strong- est possible grounds for belief that they are suited out now will cost a large sum of money ; it must be of a character that will last for a considerable length of time, otherwise there would be great sk that it would not stand long enough for even tem. porary purposes , until a complete scheme could be carried out. In fact any works done now should be good twenty years hence, and it would be much to be regretted if they should have to be removed to make room for others . All parties concerned must be more likely to approve the project now pro- posed, if they believe it to be adapted to form part of a larger scheme . I make these remarks as a kind of apology for discussing with some care the ques- tion of what kind of works will probably be ulti- mately adopted. Fortunately the subject has been already frequently and tolerably carefully considered; proposals have been made, and plans have been put forward by able men, by men of large Indian experience, as well as by others who have only European examples to guide them . The question has been considered by two different com- mittees ; one of them has most carefully and fully considered it , so that we have the advantage already of several projects , and some sound opinions on them.
3. Leaving the question of docks aside for the present, although it is tolerably certain that it will form part of a general scheme, three plans for providing accommodation for loading and unloading sea - going vessels have been proposed :
The Lieutenant-Governor has not pressed the project for providing accommodation for steamers , amounting to Rupees 1,45,000 ; for, although very desirable , it is not of the same pressing nature as providing landing convenience for the shipping .
1. A Floating Wharf.
2. A Quay Wall .
3. A Series of Jetties ,
In conclusion I amto express the Lieutenant- Governor's hope that the important recommenda- tion contained in the letter will receive favorable consideration from the Government of India . * * * . * *
Since this letter was drafted the accompanying memorandum from Mr. Leonard has been received in continuation of his report to the Committee.
Report on the means proposed for the Improvement of the Strand Bank .
THE instructions under which I prepare this report are the following extract from the proceed- ings of the Meeting of the " River Trust Com- mitee," dated 31st July last :- "The Committee are of opinion that definite
measures should be adopted at once for the con- struction of such temporary works as shall tend to diminish the inconvenience now experienced in the landing and shipment of goods , and that will bring in also some immediate income. These objects may be best obtained by selecting a por- tion of the Strand Bank for the construction of rough jetties or floating wharfs adapted to meet the want of boats and country vessels . Simultane- ously measures might be adopted for providing a few jetties or wharis for sea- going ships . Suit able sheds for the reception of goods would also
The first affords the greatest amount of conve- nience and facility for loading and unloading in a river having such a range of tide as the Hooghly, because it remains at the same relative height to the vessel at all stages of the tide, which is a matter of great convenience , and one very highly valued by owners of vessels . At Plymouth , steamers were willing to pay, and did pay, 6d a ton more for the privilege of unloading at the floating stage than they should pay for unloading at the wharf wall . It also has the advantage of being easily and quickly executed, being easily changed from place to place , if desired , and I believe suitable floating wharts could be erected at a cost not very much exceeding that of good jet- ties, and at a less cost than any really safely founded wharf wall . An objection has been raised against it on account of the difficulty of mooring in the Hooghly current; but the difficulty cannot be greater here than in the Mersey, where the tide runs just as rapidly as it does in the Hooghly , yet there, a floating wharf on a large scale har stood for many years , and it must be a decided success too , as another has lately been erected on the Birkenhcad side,ide, on a scale eclipsing every . thing that has preceded it. The real danger in theHooghly is another cylone ; a floating jetty would not have stood against the last, and if the whole Harbour had been provided with them, and have to be constructed." The remainder of the resolutions passed at the meeting, refer to the collection and arrangement [ 21 ]

boats put out of the market by their use, the result would have been disastrous . Cyclones in this Port . however , are not of frequent occurrence; although the mere possibility of such an event may afford fair grounds for declining to make the whole loading and unloading arrangements of the Port of a kind that couldbe destroyed by it , it does not appear to justi'y the total rejection of such a very convenient and useful work on a small scale. If one or two floating wharfs were erected towards the up- stream end of the shipping bank , the worst that could occur wouldbe their own destruction , and even such a probability is ex- tremely remote . I look upon floating jetties as a part of the ultimate scheme for the improvement of the Port; but I forbear from recommending them now, because the East Indian Railway Com- pany are erecting two on a very fair scale, and wemay benefit from the experience to be gained by observing these works withoutout incurring any risk ourselves ; and further, it is most likely that these very jetties will yet be transferred to the River Trust, as when the bridge over the Hooghly shall be built, they will not be required by the railway. 4. The second scheme, a wharf wall , a continu-
5. A stronger argument in favour of the wall is , that it would form a better line for the cur- rent , and thus would not allow offensive matter to remain along the bank , this is correct , but it is made too much of. The Hooghly is not a dirty river- I say so advisedly ; it is not a tenth part as dirty as the Thames , the Clyde , or the Tyne ; true, with the arrangement of dirt - traps which now exist-a large width of bank made up of hollows and heights , a depository for rubbish and dirt of all kinds , it cannot but be disagree- able ; but I am certain, that if the bank were sloped and paved and received the attention that it ought to receive to keep it free from deposits of all kinds , nothing in the least degree offensive would be visible. That portion of it which will be in the hands of the River Trust will, it is to be hoped, be so kept , and althoughgh an upright wall is decidedly the best arrangement for keeping offensive matter in motion , a well aligned and properly made bank can only require attention to keep it free from filth , and , therefore , as far as cleanliness is concerned , unobjectionable . I am convinced that the health of the City will not suffer in the smallest degree by such an arrangement .
bye- as well as of those who desire to land at the 6. There is no doubt whatever too, that a wharf wall is a more convenient arrangement for shipping than a series of jetties ; it affords more room for the work of loading and unloading gener- ally. And it is clear also that a good deal of ground wouldbe made by carrying out such a project . But if general convenience be considered , that is, the convenience of those who desire to land fromboats if any such can be found bye and wharf, it would be best met by a series of convenient wharfs at certain distances , with sloping banks between. And with reference to the land that could be made by a continuous wall, there should be room enough on the jetty head for all the pur- poses to which it ought to be devoted , and there is really room enough to accommodate a very large trade on the ground already made , that which nay be formed by raising the parts which are at present too low, and by forming the slope properly up from the water edge . Indeed, if the Trust cannot build warehouses and other such structures on the present river bank , there seems to be ample land available for all really useful purposes , and it would be waste of money to reclaim more by a filling of from 20 to 40 feet deep, which would be under similar restrictions where formed . I may mention that , in the Victoria Dock , London, the plan of jetties was adopted as likely to answer all the purposes required , and being much less expensive than a continous wall , although there the ground had to be excavated, whereaswhereas here it would have to be formed .
be most difficult to remedy . I believe a wharf 7. But there are objections to the adoption of the plan of a wharf wall which must , I think prohibit its use even if it had much greater ad- vantages than those admitted. A design which most cautious Engineers, acquainted with the habits of the Hooghly, would consider safe, is enormously expensive . The time within which it could be done is absolutely uncertain. And lastly , if it were done, there is, at least, a possi- bility of failure, and failure of a class which would wall,to be reasonably safe , should be founded at ous wharf wall , is a favorite scheme with many , not merely on account of its fitness to meet the wants of the trade of the Port, but also because it would be such an improvement to the town, and such an improvement to the river- the remark evidently referring as much to appearance as to utility. Now those who take this view of the question must have some particular river in view, the Seine in Paris , the Arno at Florence , or the upper part of the Liffey in Dublin : they can hardlybe thinking of the quay walls of Glasgow, Bristol, Newoastle, or Havre ; nor even of the shipping part of the Liffey . If a quay wall , meant to accommodate a large shipping trade , answer what it is intended for, it must be covered with planks , and ropes , and chain ; hides , and barrels , and boxes; cattle, and pigs , and sheep, and a good deal of dirt; so that in appearance the city is not improved by it at all . Nor does it improve the appearance of the river so much as many think ; if it be as much used as it should be , it is almost completely hidden by two or three tiers of ships , the only parts usually visible being those where gaping sewers pour out their contents . And lastly, as to the health of the crews of the ships, I be- lieve the partial open provided by a slope, would afford them cooler and far better air than they would have if packed close up to a river wall . The fact is, an ornamental river edge and a large shipping trade do not go together ; the latter has its advantage, but beautifying the spot which it occupies is not one of them . What people gene. rally think of when they talk of a quay wall being a great improvement, is, a neat footpath, and an ornamental railing or wall along the river side, and water up to the edge , instead of a bank covered with mud and filth . All this can be given with the greatest ease , and at a comparatively small cost, along that part of the City where people onerally require something ornamental , and where they would go to see it that is , from, say, Chandpaul Ghaut to Prinsep's Ghaut . A revet ment wall can be built from a little above ordinary low water line to the land surface ; the ground behind can be filled in, ghauts formed, and every thing done to make it ornamental ; but particular ornament on the goods portion of the bank need [ 22 ]
least 60 feet below low water mark . I am aware & liarly well adapted to the circumstances of the that plans have been submitted for the work to case ; they are light, and have a good bearing surface on their screws, this suits the weak bed of the Hooghly; they can be lengthened , or shortened , or altered in position , which answers the shifting nature of the channel .; they offer little resistance to the stream or to a storm wave; and they can be arranged so as to answer every possible demand as to the convenience of ship- ping and unloading ; while at the same time they can be constructed at a moderate cost , and within well known limits as to time. There- fore I think they are the proper class of work to adopt as an experiment, but so arranged that they may form part of a general scheme of jetties and sloping bank, with steam cranes , tramways, bonded sheds , and , ultimately, ware- houses , as I feel certain that a line of such jetties , with a few floating wharfs at the up stream end to accommodate steamers and vessels to which time will be of great impertance , will be the main scheme for the river bank works .
9. As to the class of jetty , I am in favour of wrought iron screw piles sunk at least 20 fert into the bed (screw piles cannotbe sunk much deeper) , and so braced above low water that a ship may touch without injuring them . Mr. Power would put cylindrical pil because they can be sunk deeper ; he fears that 20 feet is not safe for the screw piles . If the fact having them sunk only 20 feet, really involved the question whether a great work would stand of piles outside, or fall , I should adopt the cylinders if I thought them safer, because, then no risk whatever should be run ; but with iron screw pile jetties , even if the bed should cut to the very screw of the pile, no sudden failure would occur ; the outer row of piles would hang on until the failure could be remedied . It is, however, extremely unlikely that any important cutting would take place , the invariable tendency of jetties erected in the Hooghly having been to cause silting up . There is certainly no tendency whatever to cutting along any part of the left bank of the river from Nimtollah Ghaut down to the Dockyard at important obstruction offered to the current, and present; and if the bank be properly sloped, no there are no grounds for fear of cutting in this no great changes allowed to take place higher up, portion of the river . Screw pile jeties would offer no such obstruction ; it is easy to guard against change as high up as Chitpore, and hence I believe wrought iron screws sunk down to a depth of 20 to 25 feet below bottom wouldbe perfectly safe . But taking the worst view of the matter, the risk to be incurred in making the trial is not great . There is decidedly much more danger of silting up than there is of cutting in the Hooghly- this is how most jetties have suffer- ed-but in this case too, the wrought iron screw piles offer less inducement to silting than any by them, they would not be likely to silt at all. other form . With vessels pretty constantly lying However , if silting should follow, some artificial the heads deep ; dredging would of course means must be adopted to keep the parts abou effectual but expensive .
be founded at a very much higher level ; but I should be afraid to build a wall carried out ac cording to these designs . It is a fuct that parts of the river which are within the limits of the Port, are now scoured out to a depth of over 50 feet below low water , and this too when the current was not aided by any such structure as an upright wall in deep water along which to scour under the most favorable conditions possi- ble; with such an aid , I can see no reason why it might not scour deeper than it has done without it, down to something firmer . The borings made by the East Indian Railway Engi- neer , and especially the wells sunk at Howrah and Armenian Ghaut , show that there is no material in the bed of the river which could offer any reasonable resistance to a severe scour until a depth of over 60 feet has been reached ; and it is the opinion of Mr. Power, the Chief Engineer of the Railway-decidedly the best authority on this particular subject in India, or, I believe , inEngland-that nothing above the depth noted would be safe. There is only one way of getting foundations down to this level , that is by sinking cylinders and building the wall on them , and by far the cheapest material to use for this purpose is brick -work,-large brick wells sunk to the required depth for a foundation, and a brick wall from low water mark up as a superstructure. A wall built in this way, with the proper coping of believe no contractor would take it even at this stone, & c. , could not be carried out under a cost of about £ 100 per foot run , or about six times the cost of a series of jetties and a sloped bank; but rate, and what it would really cost , it wouldbe difficult to say. It can well be understood that a work requiring such a depth of foundation should be carried out under great difficulties : it is impos- sible to say how long it may take to sink wells to such a depth'; some go down tolerably rapidly, some will hardly move at all ; a disaster with one or two wells would cause very great delay to a large portion of the work; in fact , it wouldbe as difficult to fix a time within which such a work could be completed , as it would be to fix the cost of it ; and lastly, I should be in constant fear for its safety when done . Mr. Power thinks it would be perfectly safe if sunk some 10 or 15 feet lower, that is 10 or 15 feet into the stratum of clay; and I can see no reason to disagree with him; but the fact is , we have no precedent what- ever for such a work ; there is not a single instance on record of a wharf wall being undertaken under anything approaching to similar difficulties the Thames embankment, or the Liffey wharf wall , or eventhe Mersey dock walls , are really trifles com- pared to it . Now, although this may not be, and indeed is not, a sufficient reason why such a work should not be undertaken, if it were absolutely unavoidable, it is, I submit , a very strong reason why it should not be undertaken if something much less difficult can be adopted, which will answer moderately, although not equally, well , and hence I think the idea of a wharf wall must be set aside . I have said so much on the subject , because 1 know that many consider a wharf wall to be the proper thing , and because I feel myself that its adoption would be downright folly.
.S. There now remains only the question of jetties to consider, and jetties , I believe, are pecu-
and their distances apart, I thought at firsttties 10. Regarding the dimension of the it would be sufficient to make them large enough to unload from one hatch of vessels at a time , in which case a head of 35 or 40, and roadway of lo [ 23 ]
the cargo to be landed by the jetties, for such a length of time as it would be necessary for it to remain in them . They should be surrounded by a proper wall of railing , and tramways should run from the cranes direct into the buildings . This is the class of arrangement which I recommend . 13. If the steamers are to be moved to the up feet, would be ample. I have , however, lately been discussing the question with ship captains and others, and they say that it is often of much im portance to be able to load into two hatches at the same time . To allow this to be done, a length of head of 100 feet would be necessary, and as it seems to be desirable to give the accommodation, it will , I think, be well to have each alternate jetty of 100 feet head . If they be placed 300 feet apart from centre to centre, there will be 60 feet between any two ships lying along the head, which should afford ample room for boats to pass through . It ras proposed by Colonel Beadle as Secretary to The Government of Bengal that in, ope of 30 feet should be left between two rows of piles , to allow Wats to pass up and down without going outside; this was done however when it was contemplated to give the work over to a private company , and it was done with the object of preventing them from making a monopoly of the shore as well as of the pier head ; but now that the work is in the hands of the Trust, which can have no desire to hamper trade, and will have the power of forcing vessels to load and unload at their, jetties, there does not appear to be any necessity to make such provision, it could only be useful for boats using the ground between the jetties , and it will not be at all necessary , or desirable, that they should use these particular portions as there will be room enough for them elsewhere. The ordinary opes between the rows of screw piles would be about 15 feet, sufficient to permit most cargo boats and all small boats to pass, and considering the cir- cumstances under which the jetties are now to be constructed I believe it willbe found ample. The provision of a 30 feet ope would add considerably to the cost and would diminish the strength of structuro .
stream side of the ghaut, some special accommo- dation should be provided for them there; indeed wherever they load and unload an improvement in the means of doing it is as much needed in their case as in the case of any of the vessels frequenting the port, and there is, perhaps, as much to be gainedby providing them with the necessary con- veniences . For the present , two jetties would afford sufficient accommodation, they may be somewhat lighter and smaller than those proposed for shipping, and as they will be in shallower water they will be much cheaper, 35 feet head and 12 feet roadway will be ample. They should be provided with light steam cranes and tramways, and I believe that store houses should be erected on the ground opposite them, of which there is a large quantity available . At any rate, if stores cannotbe erected, landing sheds should be. 1 do not desire to enter on a discussion as to whether we have the right to erect buildings on this ground or not, but there can be no doubt whatever that if a decision be come to that the ground which has been reclaimed from the river cannot be utilized to meet the demands of trade, but must be left a comparatively useless if not an offensive waste, it will be a most unfortunate one for the cause of improvement , and of the welfare of the trading community. There is ground enough between the Railway Ghaut andAhery- tollah Ghaut to accommodate a very large trade. It has hitherto been a nuisance, it is now barely harmless, whereas if it be properly utilized , it may become the site of a most valuable improve- ment and a very large source of revenue for the 11. I have given much consideration to the question of the best site on which to erect the first set of jetties . It seems to have been pretty well decided that the buildings to be erected in connexion with them are to be bonded . It also appears to be a settled point that it would be an advantage if it were not necessaryecessary that all goods should be crowded on to the small patch of ground opposite to the Custom House. If these opinions be correct, I think general convenience will be best consulted if the first set of jetties were erect- ed a short distance from that building , the boats might then use it and the Bonded Warehouse fronts without interruption. A very convenient of the Bonded Warehouse to a point near the Railway Ghaut , the arrangement would, however, involve the removal of the Inland Steamers to births above the Railway Ghaut , but there is no doubt, that that is the best situation for them; they now occupy deep water births , which might be occupied by ships, the ground above the ghaut cannot be so occupied, but it is deep enough for the accommodation of River Steamers . This , bowever, is more a question of general conveni ence than an engineering one, the Committee place for four or five jetties is from the north end
Trust or the Town . 14. It now remains to consider the accommo- dation to be provided for the country boat trade, and I fear that my views on this question, as well as that of the quay wall, may be considered be- hind the times. I have really given this part of the project a good deal of attention, I have made enquiries from practical men ; from those who have a most abundant opportunity of observing the manner of loading and unloading, and I have spent a considerable time making observations is , that of all the means which we can provide for myself. The conclusion which I have arrived at loading and unloading the produce carried in country boats , the most convenient and practi- cable , for the greater part of it is to provide a good sloped bank, made easy for coolies to ascend and descend, and allow them to carry the bags and bundles on their heads . I am quite satisfied that this is cheaper and on the whole better than wharfs or jetties , even if provided with steam cranes , hydraulic cranes , or hand cranes . It does not follow in the slightest degree that because such an arrangement is good for country boats, it must be good for cargo boats bringing cargoes to and from vessels . The country boats come up direct to the bank with their cargo , generally con- sisting of portions of jute or rice or seeds of a maund or two in weight , which a man or two can carry with ease. The difference in the case of ships unloading by boats need not be pointed out . The Committee must not consider that because a may therefore wish to decide it themselves . 12. In connexion with the jetties the necessary crales, tramways and buildings must be consi dered. I think the unloading arrangements should be the best of the kind , that is good jetty steam cranes, capable of lifting weights of two or three tons , and of hoisting or lowering at the rate of from 15 to 20 tons per hour. The buildings should be capable of accommodating the whole of [ 24 ]
tource of immediate income, if some temporary buildings were run up on each side of the roads being madeby Mr. Wallace, secure enough to be used as stores hy native merchants , they could be let out at once for that purpose and at a very remunerative,rate.
to do so ; indeed the very work proposed of raising 17. Whatever work, may be done in this portion of the river for the accommodation of the boat trade on the plan described , wouwould be all in the right direction whenever it may become necessary to extend the shipping of the port up to it . I have no doubt that the shoal which extends from the Railway Ghaut up to Aherytollah Ghant canbe easily removed when it becomes necessary the low land which lately formed part of the d will help to remove the remainder of it.
series of jetties is considered unnecessary , nothing is required to be done for the up - country trade ; on the contrary a great deal is quired, and nothing can be more reasonable than to make the boats pay for the accommodation given to them. At present they ground on a mud bank ; they have to carry the cargo through mud often more than ankle deep for a distance of from 50 to 100 vards, and then up a bank of any shape but the right one . This should be all altered, the slope should be carried out to low water , it should be well made with brick ballast , neatly rammed and smoothed , so that the coolies could walk on it easily and comfortably , and then it should be kept clean from mud and dirt , and for such accommo- dation boats may very well pay . A couple of small screw pile jetties , or a screw pile and a float- ing jetty, mightbe erected at the most convenient places to accommodate boats carrying heavy cargo , and as an experiment in the way of providing such accommodation for this class of traffic one jetty might be provided with a small steam crane, the other with hand- cranes .
15 As an immediate relief to the boat trade and a source of income for the Trust , the roads now being made by Mr. Wallace might be run down to dead low water ; the metal carried down to the same level , and the whole rammed and smoothed so as to make it easy for coolies to move on, and other reads might also be run down in the most favorable positions for the work . The boats should then make use of them as ghauts, and they should be charged for the use .
18. I submit herewith a short description of the works which I propose for the purpose of the kind of preliminary project desired by the Committee, and a rough , but I think covering estimate of the cost . The works proposed are hardly of a temporary kind" as noted by the Committee ; but they are of a kind that, while they will stand for a long time if desired, yet they can be easily removed if such a course be found necessary hereafter . No drawings have been prepared, because, lst , it would have delayed the submission of this paper for a long time, if it had been kept back until they were ready ; and next, until the project or some project is definitely approved of, it would be waste of time to prepare drawings . What is proposed can be understood without them , and the preparation of the drawings need not delay the commencement of the work , if it be approved . Meantime a survey of the bank is being made and a design for a jetty is being prepared.

NOTE. The Jetties accommodation will unload about 1,000 tons per day . The buildings are only intended to be used as bonded sheds .
16. But the way in which the greatest amount of accommodation can be given to the boat trade 18, byby erecting suitablsuitable godowns on the, now use- less, land along the river bank . The sum of money which is expended in carting the produce away from the river to the gullies and narrow streets of the town is enormous . Carts have to pass through narrow lanes where they are sometimes at a dead lock for hours; then the produce has to be carried by coolies through all sorts of passages after it has been carted as far as possible; and at last it is stored in godowns for which very high rents are very paid. Of course the same round has to be gone through when it is being shipped . This could , and I suppose would , all be avoided if the means weregiven of storing on the bank . The buildings must be such as would enable the mahajuns to lock up and protect their goods-open sheds of whatever kind would not answer-they may be simple, and comparatively inexpensive, of only one story if there be an absolube an absolute necessity for con- fining them to that height, but they must be closed. There appears to be an idea afloat that open sheds such as the Customs sheds may be built, but that the air of the river must not be shut out by closed buildings . Now if the open sheds be good for any thing , they will be filled with produce, and when filled they must obstruct the passage of the air as much as if they were closed by doors and widows, so that really the difference between open sheds and close sheds is more imaginary than real . If it be considered of great importance to provide for the passage of air from the river to the strand road, it can be best arrangedby placing the building in double rows, extending from the river towards the road ; say a roadway of 80 feet then a space for a building of 66 feet, another road , and so on, thus air passages and the greatest amount of accommodation for trade would both be provided.

BONDED WAREHOUSE , The 28th November 1866 .
Note by H. LEONARD, Esq , to accompany his Report on the mcans proposed for the improvement of the Strand Bank .
1 have said nothing in my report as to the necessity for the jetties . I supposed this to be admitted, the Committee having ordered me to eonsider the means of providing them . I have discussed the class of accommodation which should be provided, whether wharf walls , floating wharves, or pile jetties , with the best means of providing this accommodation. The following remarks might, however, be added to the 1st paragraph of my report, viz :-
6. The following are the data from which these results have been obtained. The Strand Bank, reserving the ground required for the sanctioned project for steamers and sea-going vessels , the whole of the bank south of the Custom sheds for the accommodation of cargo boats, all the public ghauts for the public use , and 100 feet wide along the whole edge of the bank for the boat traffic project, there would remain over 1,200 cottahs of land available to let on three years leases . The rent now obtained, when no leases can be givengiven and no building of any kind are allowed to be erected, is over 10 Rupees per cottah per month, say Rupees 120.a year. Supposing , how- ever, owing to the larger quantity available, that only Rupees 100 per cottah would be obtained, and that only 1,000 of the 1,200 cottahs would be let, the income would be 100 x 1,000 = 1,00,000 Rupees per annum . I am aware that all the ground cannot be let now; but parties object to take it, first because they cannot get leases , next because they cannot erect any covering for the goods which they store on it . There seems to be no good reason why both these privileges should
not be conceded for three years ; it so , I believe all the ground would be taken. This calculation , too, is on the supposition that matters remain as they now are ; but if the boat accommodation project be carried out, and that all boats must unload between the Mint and Aheereetollah Ghaut, the ground would be in much greater demand, and would, I think, let at higher prices .
2. It is useless to discuss the question of the necessity for accommodation for loading and un- loading vessels , the two Committees which have reported on the subject being unanimous as to the great want of such accommodation . The efforts which have been made by two separate Companies and by the firm of Messrs. Brassey and WythesWythes to obtain the privilege of erecting works , and the support which they received from the whole mer- [ 26 ]
of a suggestion made by Colonel Dickens, Secre- taryto the Government of India, at a Meeting recently held in the Office of the Chief Engineer of Bengal .
c. THE PROJECT FOR BOATS . I have been furnished by the Collector of Nuddea Rivers and the Collector of Canal Tolls with a re- turn shewing the number, of laden boats which come into the river in a year . This return gives 1,200,000 tons . It is , however, known from ac- curate experiments that the canal and river measurements give 35 per cent. more than the true quantity actually carried by the boats, thus reducing the total to 8,00,000 . I assume that all the cargo is landed in Calcutta, I don't know where else it can go to ; but in order not to over estimate, I deduct , leaving 6,00,000 tons to be landed; and as all boats must use our accommo- dation, and as I think that we shall have modation for all, I take credit for the whole quantity. The limit of rate fixed by the Act for country boat produce is 12 annas ; but taking it at 8 annas the result will be Rupees 3,00,000 . It would, of course , increase or decrease nearly in proportion to the rate really charged.
2. The construction of wooden jetties on the Hooghly Strand Bank was suggested by Colonel Dickens as a measure likely to be more imme- diately beneficial to the trade of the Port , and consequently to give more immediate and general satisfaction to the Mercantile Community than the erection of iron jetties . It will be seen, however, from Mr Leonard's Note (of which a copy has been forwarded direct to Colonek Dickens) that he is of opinion that the benefit t accombe derived from wooden jetties would not be great ; while the expense of their constructio would be considerable, and its inevitable result would be the deterioration of the River Bank and general dissatisfaction . In this opinion the Chief Engineer entirely concurs with Mr. Leonard, and the Lieutenant-Governor would therefore deprecate the construction of wooden jetties ; while strongly supporting the erection , as soon as possible, of iron jetties on screw piles with 105 feet length of head , as the only means of giving the experiment a fair trial . It may be further remarked that the silting action described by Mr. Leonard in the 6th paragraph of his Note would not take place in the case of a jetty on screw piles.
Memorandum from H. LEONARD , ESQ. , C. E. , Officiating Superintending Engineer , South -Eastorn Circle,- (dated the 30th November 1867. )
d. RIVER STEAMER PROJECT. In calculating the income from the river steamers , I must be guided by what we can undertake to do , the accommodation provided not being sufficient for the whole trade of the Port . Each of the river steamer's cranes should , and indeed will, lift 200 tons a day. I assume, however, that the two will lift only 300 tons a day, andday, and that they will work for 250 days a year, this would give 75,000 tons per annum. The limit of rate fixed , by the Act for unloading steamers is Rupees 2 per ton; but taking it at only 1 Rupee and 4 annas, the result would be say Rupees 1,00,000 .
As requested by Colonel Dickens and the Chief Engineer , I submit estimates for the construction of jetties on the Strand Bank :-
1 For constructing an iron scrow pile jetty with 105 feet length of head .
1 For constructing a similar jetty with 45 feet head . 1 For constructing a timber jetty of 105 feet head.
e. PROJECT FOR SEA - GOING VESSELS . In the case of sea-going vessels , I calculate that five steam cranes will unload only 800 tons a day, althoughalthough it is well known that they could raise 1,000, and I take the number of working days again at 250 , which gives 2,00,000 tons per annum . TheAct fixes the limit of charge to Rupees 3 per ton, taking of this as in the other cases, the income would be 4,00,000 of Rupees; of course these incomes only would increase or decrease in proportion to the rate charged .
* * * 2. The cost of the screw pile jetties is found- ed on the rates at which Messrs . would do the work . That of the wooden jetty on local rates collected in the Office .
per f. THE WHOLE COST OF OUT- DOOR ESTABLISH- MENT.-Engineering and superintending , fuel, &c. , could not be more than Rupees 80,000 annum, so that it appears the income of the Committee may be considerable, if they can carry out this first part of the project .
3. The iron jetty, if ordered at once , would be erected by the 1st of January 1869. The wooden jetty could probably be done in six months from the date of giving orders ; but the arrangements of steam cranes, rails, sheds , & c. , could not be in working order before November or December 1868 .

4. While there can be no room for doubt, but that woodenjetties , even without steam cranes , &c . , wouldbe of much use to the shipping , it is equally certain that the value of a jetty without these appliances would not be more than one-fourth that of one well furnished ; while one would earn seven or eight hundred Rupees a day, the other would not earn more than from one hundred and fifty to two hundred .

It is difficult to draw a comparison between iron and wood as to their durability ; indeed it is hardly necessary to do so , as the wooden jetty is not expected to form a permanent arrangement ; but it is difficult even to fix, with moder curacy, a time which the wooden jetty is likely to last : it may be destroyed by the toredo of the river in a year or two , as in the case of the Alipore Bridge ; while it may last for several years, the jetties at Hastings having stood tolerably well for six or seven years .

6. The great objection, however, to a wooden jetty in the Hooghly, especially in that part of the Hooghly where it is now proposed to crect jetties, between the Custom Sheds and the Rail- way, is the effect which they produce on the bank causing a deposit of mud about the piles, which renders the work useless in a few years , Wherever a jetty has been erected, from Hastings up to the Railway, on either side of the river, silting has followed rapidly, and to such an extent that no vessel larger than a cargo boat can lay by them : just north of the very ground on which the jet- ties are now to be erected , the Railway Ferry lading is dry at low water , the steamer being unable to use it except by the aid of a floating jetty attached. This silting not only renders the Jett itself useless, butit forms a permanent injury to the line of the bank , making it more difficult to deal with the erection of a good line ot permanent works hereafter .

7. The question to be decided then is this. Is it worth while to run the risk of failure ,- tailure by the destruction of the jetty itself, by having it rendered useless from silting , and by injuring the river bank for some distance above and below,for the sake of having the use of one or two jetties for six or seven months , doing only one- fourth of the work which well appointed jetties can do, and that too at very great cost , for although the exact time which a wooden jetty will stand cannot be definitely fixed , it is certain that it will not last many years .

8. There is an objection to trying such an experiment just now , which , though it may not be of very great importance, will probably be thought worthy of consideration . It is this,- the question of providing accommodation for the shipping has now been under discussion for several years, people have been on the tip toe of expecta- tion that something worthy of the trade of the port would be undertaken: they have been ex- pecting it so long, that a few months more or less would hardly be noticed ; but now that this De- partment has taken it up, the plans will be watch- ed with suspicion , every fault will be magnified , and it would very seriously shake confidence in future projects , if a commencement be made with work which may, and probably will be , a failure: the Public Works Department is certain to receive volumes of abuse , and every one connected with the work will get his share of it, whether ho merits it or not .

9. On considering the matter as carefully as I can, I am decidedly of opinion that the money spent on eresting wooden jetties to give tempo . rary relief to the shipping would not be well spent, the relief afforded would not be sufficient to produce any sensible effect on the trade of the port , while the effects of an incomplete arrange- ment in the commencement would be to shake con- fidence in the whole project . I therefore recom- mend that the iron jetties be erected as soon as possible, and that no steps be taken to put up wooden ones in the meantime .

It would appear that screw -pile jetties may, under the arrangement proposed , be constructed within a year from the date of the order ; ut that timberjetties can be built for half the money and within half the time. Such jetties would, however, be less efficient , and could not, in the time mentioned , be turnished with steam- cranes . Mr. Leonard also fears that , judging by existing cases, they would cause a deposit of silt , which would inin a short time render it impossible for large vessels to be brought alongside. This , it is sup- posed, would not happen with screw -pile jetties . On this latter point, however, there is hardly sufficient evidence . On the contrary, the pre- sumption is that the resistance to the current opposed by a large jetty of sorew - pites would, in positions where there is a tendency to silting ac- tion, cause a deposit, though not so rapidly , for to so great an extent as wouldbe occasioned by the greater resistance offered by timber piles . In both cases , no doubt, means couldbe found to remove the deposit . If, on further consideration , the Lieutenant- Governor should think it worth while to order the construction of one or more timber jetties, in addition to the iron ones, to secure more immediate relief to the trade, the Governor General in Couneil will be prepared to sauction the outlay, but it is not desired to interfere with His Honor's decision on this point .

Memorandum by the Magistrate of the Northern Divi sion, expressive ad his opinion upon the followingfollowing paragraph, being paragraph 12 of the Resolution of the Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal,-(dated 26th August 1867 )
10. Any objection to the Jail as a place for executing a judiqial sentence of whipping may , with greater force, be based on executive dislike to disagreeable but necessary duty not self- imposed.
From G. C. ScoNCE, Esq. , Officiating Magistrate, Southern Division, Calcutta, to MAJOR W REVELEY , Deputy Commissioner of Police , (No. 52, dated Calcutta, the 7th SeptembSeptember 1867.)
12. " With reference to the 9th Section of the Commissioner's Report , the Lieutenant- Governor desires that the Commissioner of Police maybe called upon to report, after communica- tion with the Police Magistrates , whether ar- rangements cannot be made for giving effect on the spot to sentences of flogging passed by the Police Magistrates , instead of sending the pri- soners to the Presidency Jail to undergo their punishments there . "
1. The proper place for the carrying out of any sentence of whipping is the Presidency Jail, and this view is supported by the opinion of the learned Advocate- General on a reference made to that Officer by Messrs . Roberts and Branson, which is as follows :-
In reply to your memorandum No. 1020, dated Sist August 1867, referring me to paragraph 12 of the Resolution passed by the Hon'ble the Lieutenant- Governor of Bengal , dated the 26th ultimo, on the report of the Commissioners ap- pointed to enquire into the management of the Presidency Jail, I have to say that , apart from the obvious objection which exists to inflicting the punishment of flogging in the Police Courts or in the Police compound, situated as these places are upon a crowded thoroughfare and thronged with persons of all descriptions , including women and children , the Presidency Jail is the proper place for the infliction by the Executive Officers of all punishments ordered by the Magistrate in his judicial capacity.
" I think no warrant is necessary beyond the conviction, on receipt of which the Executive Authorities of the Jail must carry out the punish ment in the mode provided by law, i. e ., by Act VI. of 1864. The Bengal Council could not do anything more than authorise the Magistrates to impose the punishment ; everything regarding its infliction depends on the terms of the Act of the
The punishment of flogging must be inflicted in the presence of a Medical Officer and a Justice of the Peace . The present Superintendent of the Presidency Jail , to whom warrants for the inflic- tion of punishment are now addressed, is both a Justice of the Peace and a Medical Officer.
Supreme Legislature ." 2. It would be most objectionable to have prisoners whipped at the Police Office , where there are many women and children residing .
All juveniles sentenced to flogging are flogged in the Court before the Magistrate, but I cannot recommend any change in the practice at present followed in regard to the flogging of adults.
3. The reluctance now exhibited by some persons, especially females , to attend the Police Courts as prosecutors or witnesses , would thereby be greatly increased . This is not desirable .
Resolution by His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal , (dated Fort William the 26th November 1867.)
4. There is no fitting place within the Police premises for administering the punishment of whipping, and were this otherwise, the vicinity of the most crowded thoroughfare of Calcutta is an improper locality for the purpose .
5. It is not the duty of a Magistrate , nor is it correct in him , to take any part in executing his own sentence . It would be a tetrograde stop to do so, a falling back into Motussıl habits, which perhaps only obtain for want of more decent appli- ances , or because a more rational procedure is not readily to be devised for Mofussil Stations,
READ again Jail Proceedings for September 1867, Nos . 1 to 11, relative to a report from the Commission appointed to enquire into the manage- ment of the Presidency Jail, and to paragraph 12 of the Government Resolution thereon , calling upon the Commissioner of Police to report whe- ther arrangements could not be made for carrying out sentences of flogging passed by the Police Magistrates at the Police Court itself instead of at the Jail .
6. The Magistrate of the Northern Division has witnessed the execution of his sentences of whipping three times , with a view of ascertaining the severity of this mode of punishment .
Read a letter No. 1273 , dated the 24th ultimo, from the Commissioner of Police, Calcutta, sub- mitting the report called for .
Read a letter No. 3743T . , dated 14th ultimo , from the Inspector-General of Jails , submitting a report from the Superintendent of the Presi- dency Jail , in connection with the subject .
7. The punishment of whipping , as adminis- tered in the yard of the Suburban Police Court, is demoralizing . It may be amusing to some 50 or 60 persons of depraved tastes, who daily ( Sundays and holidays excepted) assemble at the gate ; but these are scarcely worthy of encouragement .
8. Mr. Jeremiah King , late the Governor of the Presidency Jail, was appointed a Justice of the Peace, that sentences of whipping might be carried out according to law in his presence at the Jail .
2. The Magistrates of both the Northern and Southern Divisions state that, in their opinion , the Jail is the proper place for administering the punishment of whipping , inasmuch as the Police Office is situated in a crowded thoroughtare , and its compound is thronged with men, women, and children all day long . Moreover , they think it would be difficult to secure the daily attendance of a Medical Oficer at the Police Office to see the punishment carried out . On the other hand the Jail authorities urge that it is a hardship to those sentenced to flogging, especially in the ouse of juvenile offenders, to convey them to a place so distant as the Jail , and to release them after punishment at night, to find their way as they best can to their homes . The cries also of 9. By paragraph 11 of the Resolution, we learn " that flogging in a Jail must some times be had recourse to." It is possible that the shouts and out- cries of Police prisoners , while under the lash , may excite convicts who happen to be within hearing of them , but the exciting influence would certainly not be less when the cries proceeded from scourged Jail convicts under punishment for " disorganizing the discipline of the Jail ."
[ 37 ]
those under punishment being audible in the Jail at night, are said to have a disturbing influence on the regular prisoners .
trate of the Southern Division, that juvenile offenders sentenced to whipping in his Court , receive their punishment at the Police Office . Hu Honor hopes that the practice will be acted on by the Magistrates of both Divisions .
3. On the whole the Lieutenant -Governor is of opinion that the present system under which flogging is administered in the Jail should, save in the case of juvenile offenders , be continued. His Honor, however, thinks it desirable that all adult prisoners on whom sentences of whipping have been passed, should be sent as early in the
day as possible to the Jail from the Police Court . 4. The Lieutenant - Governor leains from the statement of Mr. Sconce, late Officiating Magıs-

Want of an efficient Meteorological Department in Calcutta .
From J.LINDLEY, Esq. , Secretary to the Calcutta Trades Association , to the Under- Secretary to the Government of Bengal, ( dated Calcutta, the 15th November 1867. )
I AM instructed by the Master and Committee of the Calcutta Trades Association , to request you to draw the attention of His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor to the want of a proper and efficient meteorological department in Calcutta , as evidenced during the late Cyclone , and the great necessity for some system of storm signals by which not only the shipping , but the whole population may be warned of the approach of such visitations . Had such a system been in operation , much valuable property belonging to the trade and others might easily have been saved ; or even had the notice been given to the Association which was forwarded to the Shipping by the Marine Authorities , a large number of the inhabitants could have been warned of the approach of the storm , and have been better prepared to meet it.
I am also directed by the Committee to state that the Association will gladly render any assistance it possibly can in the way of exhibiting from its Flag Staff , any code of signals which may be determined on by Government .
The Committee would also venture to enquire whether the time has not arrived for the construction of our underground Telegraph from Calcutta to Sandheads ; the majority of heavy gales and Cyclones approach from Saugor , and past experience having shewn that the line of telegraph as at present used, is totally unable to withstand the effects of such visitations , it appears to the Committee of the utmost importance that communication should , if possible , be kept up , (at such times more especially) between Calcutta and the Sandheads , they therefore beg to recommend the construc- tion of an underground telegraph , which would secure so great an advantage to the general public.
From H. L. HARRISON , Esq., Junior Secretary to the Government of Bengal , to the Secretary to the Metcorological Committee,-(No . 4689, dated Fort William, the 20th Novem- ber 1867.)
IN forwarding to you the accompanying copy of a letter dated the 15th instant, from the Secretary to the Calcutta Trades' Association , drawing attention to the want of a proper and efficient Meteorological Department in Calcutta, as evidenced during the late Cyclone , and the necessity for some system of Storm Signals by which not only the shipping but the whole population may be warned of the approach of such visitations . I am directed to request that the Meteorological Committee may be invited to state , for the Lieutenant- Governor's information , what notice was actually given , and at what hour to the shipping , and also in what manner , and by what means it was given, and whether there would be any difficulty in mak- ing the notice general for the benefit of the entire community .
2. I am at the same time desired to add , that the Lieutenant- Governor will be glad to receive any suggestions that the Committee may be prepared to offer for making the Meteorological Department more efficient.
[ 40 ]
From H. F. BLANFORD, Esq. , Secretary to the Meteorological Committee, to the Junior Secre- tary to the Government of Bengal,-( No . 296, dated the 18th December 1867. ) I HAVE the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter No. 4689 of the 20th November , together with its enclosure, and having laid the same before the Meteorological Committee , I am requested to submit the following report in reply .
2. It has been the custom of the Meteorological Committee, ever since the date of its appointment , to communicate to the Master Attendant, warn- ings of the presumed or probable approach of storms , and that Officer has transmitted such warnings to the Shipping in the port , together with any directions that he may consider necessary .
3. This course was followed by the Meteorological Reporter on the occa- sion of the late Cyclone . On receiving , on the morning of the 1st November , the usual 10h . report from Saugor Island , and that of the previous afternoon froin Cuttack, both showing a falling barometer and wind fromthenorth - east , the storm quarter , the Reporter telegraphed to Saugor Island for an additional report at 12h. 30m . This report reached him about 2h . 30m . on his return from lectur- ing at the Presidency College . It shewed that the barometer had not fallen since the morning report more than is usual at that hour, but that the north - east wind was strong and unsteady , with scud from the north-east . This appeared to afford sufficient reason for warning the Shipping , and the Reporter states that he at once went over to the Master Attendant, saw him , and communicated to him personally the reports he had received , together with all other information that he was able to give ; suggesting that the Shipping should be warned to be in readiness for bad weather : that he further explained how future telegrams should be interpreted on coinparison with those already received ; and as he had to attend a meeting at the Asiatic Society's rooms at 5 o'clock, he directed that a copy of the usual daily office report (containing the 16h . report from Saugor Island and Calcutta) should be sent to the Master Attendant in his absence . This was duly performed . He further states that he also telegraphed to Saugor Island for an additional report to be sent at 20h , and requested that a copy of this might be forwarded from the Electric Telegraph Office direct to the Master Attendant . Judging from the rate of pro- gress ofthe storm of October 1864 , and froin the actual report and appearance of the weather at 4 o'clock , the proposed telegram at 20h . would , he considered , have sufficed for all practical purposes ; but as the weather at Saugor Island became rapidly worse , the Observer, acting on Rule 3 of the Com- mittee's Rules for registry and telegraphing, sent an additional report at 17h . 30m. which shewed a rapid fall of the barometer and increasing wind .
4. On receipt of this the Meteorological Reporter further states , that , after some delay in the attempt to procure a conveyance , he proceded on foot to the 1st Assistant Master Attendant and reached him about 19h . 30m : that he then informed him that there was every reason to believe that a severe storm was approaching , possibly a Cyclone, though the wind had shewn no sign of veer- ing at Saugor Island. The Reporter thence procceded to the Electric Tele- graph Office, and there received another telegram despatched from Saugor Island at 19h , shewing that the barometer had fallen greatly, and that the wind was so violent that there was difficulty in reaching the barometer (in a room below the Electric Telegraph Assistant's dwelling room) . This telegram was sent by pcon to the 1st Assistant Master Attendant .
5. An attempt was made to obtain another report at 20h . , but the roply was only partially intelligible, and a few minutes later the line ceased to work . Even in the latest report received , there was no sign of veering in the wind at Saugor Island, and nothing could , it appearsto the Committee,be inferred with confidence as to the probable course of the storm .
6. In reply to the second question in your paragraph 1 , I am instructed to state that the Committce fcel that very great caution should be exercised in conveying any warning to the town generally ; sinco such warning would most certainly create much alarm, while , if no storm of great violence should followto justify the warning, there would be no compensating advan- tage, and discredit might be thrown on future warnings . A general warning might be conveyed to the town most speedily and effectually through the agency of the Police, but the Committee have grave doubts whether the 41 )
employment of such an agency would not give rise to an amount of alarm , which no probable benefit would justify . Moreover, the Committee is decidedly of opinion that no warning can ever be of any service in pro- tecting the huts , &c . , which from the balk of the tenements of the northern or larger half of the town. With these remarks the Committee leave this point for the consideration and decision of IIis Honor .
7. With a view to meeting the requirements of Merchants , the Members of the Trades' Association , and others , who may have valuable property exposed to the weather , and which a timely warning might enable them to put under protection , the Committee would recommend that , ( 1 ) cautionary reports , such as that given to the Master Attendant on the afternoon of the 1st November , should be sent on occasions of threatening weather to the Chamber of Commerce, the Trades ' Association , and some conspicuous building in Chowrin- ghee ( such as the Asiatic Society's building ,) at which signal posts are or maybe erected; also to the Newspaper Offices , to enable the Editors , if so disposed, to issue ' extra' notices to their Subscribers . ( 2. ) That two forms of day signals be adopted , a black double cone and drum , (or triangular and square flags of the same color) ; the one to be used as a cautionary signal, the other to indicate the actual approach of a storm . These should be kept in readiness at each of thebuildings specified , and hoisted on due notice given from the Meteorological Office. The Committee believe that the European public are sufficiently familiar with the idea of cautionary signals as distinct from danger signals, not to fall into the error of expecting a cyclone every time that the former are hoisted , and from the occasional non - occurrence of a storm on such occasions , to entertain a hasty distrust of the signals . Every pains should of course be taken to render themeaning of the signals familiar to the public beforehand . (3 ) . With reference to night signals there is some difficulty , and their utility for warning the town may be questioned . Rockets and fireworks of all kinds are too commonly used in Calcutta by the natives at feasts and marriages , to attract attention. Guns might be fired from the Fort , if the Military Authori- ties should raise no objection ; but on the approach of Cyclones , the wind is always from north - east or East north - east , and such guns would scarcely be heard in most parts of Calcutta . Lamps to be employed according to the Fitzroy method , to indicate respectively the drum and the cone , could no doubt be kept in readiness at the Dock -yard , and might be hoisted on the mast there erected, but it appears doubtful how far such a mode of signalling could be depended on elsewhere than in large Government work- shops ,-anywhere indeed , where the readiness and serviceable condition of the signals would depend in a great measure on the attention of native servants . And as at night time but little can be done towards putting property under protection ; as , moreover , the alarm any night signals would give rise to, would be very great, and the occasions must be rare on which the cautionary signals could not be hoisted during some part of the day - light , the Committee would not venture to recommend at present the adoption of night signals , except for the warning of the Shipping . They would however recommend that night signals of the kind above specified be provided at the Dock- yard, and at some place higher up the river (e . g . the Bankshall, or other spot to be selected by tho Master Attendant) .
8. While the Committee admit that timely warning of storms may do much to avert losses of property on land , by enabling preparations to be made for securing it , they would at the same time point out that, as regards houses and property stored in houses , any warning will be of little value unless the owners or occupiers exert themselves to render the fastenings secure . The experience of the two great Cyclones that have visited Calcutta within the last four years , has shewn that , as a rule , the fastenings of windows are but little calculated to withstand the enormous strain to which they are subjected in these storms . And it must be observed that when one window in a building gives way and the wind has gained a free entrance, unless the wind be allowed to sweep through the house, the walls of the house or room are in the condition of the cylinder and piston of an Hydraulic press , and are forced outwards in all directions with a force of 30 or 40. lbs . and upwards on every square foot of wall surface . The provision of proper fastenings for windows { 42 ]
although not strictly a matter within the functions of the Committee , is one to which they have given some attention, and the suggestions hereto appended may perhapsbe found worthy of attention , especially in public offices , and places where valuable papers and other perishable property are stored .
9. In reply to His Honor's invitation of suggestions from the Committee , for making the Meteorological Department more efficient, the Committee would submit that a main object to be kept in view , is to consolidate as much as possible the work of the Department , and thus to obviate the possible con- fusion , delays , and errors arising from divided responsibility and want of uni- formity in the system . The major portion of the Committee's recommenda- tions are drawn up with this view.
10. Referring to the Committce's letter, No. 165 of 17th June 1867, the Committee would recommend that the first and second class stations therein enumerated be placed on the same footing as regards the supply of instruments and mode of registry , telegraphic reports being received from four stations only in Bengal as at present ; the others to be registering but not telegraphing stations . At all these stations the system now adopted in Madras , under Mr. Pogson , may be introduced with advantage . Under that system , seventeen observing stations are established and provided with full sets of instruments . The observers are placed under the Meteorological Reporter . Trustworthy natives are selected and employed on a salary of Rupees 40 per month to make the observations , under the general superintendence of the Medical Officers who receive a fixed monthly allowance of Rupees 30 for carriage and superintendence. The returns are sent to the Superintendent , Mr. Pogson , who undertakes their publication in full, in an annual volume. On this portion of the Committee's recommendations they will report in more detail shortly .
11. With uniformity in the character of the stations , the adoption of uni- form registers would be a concomitant reform , and one of very great import- ance. The Committee would indeed recommend that the same registry forms should be adopted for the whole of India. At the present time , in Bengal alone, and leaving out of consideration the proposed 3rd Class stations (for rainfall registration) , the Medical Department issues Colonel James' forms , some adapted for monthly and others for weekly returns ; a third form formerly issued by the Department and adapted for former observations , is still in use at some stations ; a fourth drawn up by the Meteorological Reporter for the same stations is in store , but has not hitherto been employed ; and a fifth form is in use for the stations established by this Committee. But this is not all , Colonel James' forms issued by the Medical Department are adapted for com- plete sets of instruments, duly compared and of uniform pattern . No single station possesses such instruments , and the returns are therefore very variously filled in. In the barometric column , for instance , are entered sometimes the readings of an aneroid, sometimes those of a mercurial barometer ( instru- ments not comparable , inter se) , and it is more frequently left blank . It is almost superfluous to remark that by such diversity in the returns , great additional work is imposed on the office in which it is endeavoured to reduce the observations , and calculate their means . But hitherto this has not been attempted , except in the case of the Committee's stations , and the rainfall of other stations , partly because the Reporter's Office is at present inadequate to this additional work , and partly for the reasons specified in paragraph 13.
12. In order to render the observations uniform at the present 1st and 2nd Class Stations , barometers would be supplied to the latter, and maximum and minimum thermometers, with thermometer sheds to the former. It may also bo desirable to furnish additional instruments to both , viz . , vacuum black bulb thermometers for solar radiation , minimum radiation thermometers for grass, earth thermometers , anemometers and evaporation guages . This , however, would involve no very great expense, and the outlay would be incurred once for all .
13. In previous reports the Committee have uniformly insisted most strongly on the great importance of all instruments being subjected to a thorough testing previously to their being issued , a record of the instrumental errors being made and preserved for office use . This has not been done so far as the Committee are aware in the case of most, if indeed of any, of the justruments . the readings of which are now recorded by the District Medical [ 43 ]
Officers. It is impossible therefore to know what is the relative value of the readings of the instruments employed, while it may safely be assumed that the indications of some of them are so far erroneous as not to be susceptible of comparison. It is impossible to say which instruments are trustworthy or whether any are, and in this uncertainty it has been felt that it would be throwing away labour to attempt to reduce and abstract their readings . The instruments issued by the Committee have indeed all been compared with standards , but , in the opinion of the Committee, the tests applied are insufli- cient, and the comparison has not been satisfactory , because the means do not at present exist in Calcutta of carrying out such tests for any but standard barometers .
14. The Committee consider that conformably to their preliminary pos- tulate, viz . , that responsibility should be undivided , the Meteorological Reporter should be entrusted with the testing of all instruments issued to the observers whose registers he receives and discusses , and that he be provided with the means of subjecting these to satisfactory and sufficient tests , and comparison with standards to be kept and observed in his own office or at the Meteorological Observatory , if the site be near his office , as proposed in paragraph 10. This is the course followed and sanctioned at Madras . The apparatus required for testing thermometers is very simple and inexpensive. Standard and mountain barometers require no apparatus beyond a scale for testing their graduation ; but marine barometers and the ordinary storm baro- meters should be tested in an exhausted receiver, similar to that which has now been habitually used at the Kew Observatory for the same purpose for the last four years . The Committee would recommend that the Meteorological Reporter be furnished with all requisite apparatus . No special establish- ment would be requisite for the testing, as writers and computers of good average intelligence would easily perforin the work , in conjunction with the Reporter himself.
15. Another measure which the Committee would most strongly recom- mend to Government , is that the Meteorological Observatory be established in some clear space not surrounded by buildings , the effect of which is greatly to influence the thermometric and bygrometric readings , while the neces- sity of crecting the anemometer and wind -vane on the summit of a lofty building (the other instruments being placed in a shed on the ground), practically removes the former from the eye of the observer . For a site, the Committee would suggest some place on the fortifications of Fort William , or in case any objection be raised to this by the Military Authorities , some place on the maidan . A small building only would be required for the purpose. If not in the Fort , the site should be as near as possible to the Office of the Meteorological Reporter ; otherwise he should be furnished at his office with a set of standard instruments for observation , and for the ccm- parison of the instruments issued by him at all times . The absence of any means of observation at or near his Office , was felt to be a great inconvenience on the occasion of the late Cyclone . IHe has since indented for a barometer, but it appears very desirable to the Committee that he should be provided with the means for more complete observation , as well as of verification of the instruments , the registers of which he receives and discusses .
16. The above measures will , the Committee believe , render the Meteo- rological Department very much more effective , by placing the administration more in the hands of one Officer and so concentrating responsibility ; by ensuring a degree of accuracy and reliability to the records of observation whichr they have never hitherto attained ; and by removing existing causes of delay in the communication of urgent information to the Meteorological Reporter and of warnings from him to the Shipping and mercantile public .
From II . L. HARRISON , Esq. , Junior Secretary to the Government of Bengal , to the Secretary to the Meteorological Committee,-(No . 372 , dated the 20th January 1868.)
I AM directed to acknowledge the receipt of your letter No. 296 , dated 18th ultimo , and in reply to communicate the following observations on the measures proposed by the Committee for the estab- lishment of an efficient system of storm signals for the Town and Shipping [ 44 ]
of Calcutta , and for increasing generally the efficiency of the Meteorological Department .
2. The Lieutenant -Governor admits the force of the objections adduced in your 6th paragraph , to using the agency of the Police in con- veying warnings of impending storms , as well as against needlessly alarming the town in general in cases where the event will frequently fail to justify such alarm ; he, therefore , concurs in the propriety of limiting the warnings of the Committee as suggested in paragraph 7. The Meteorological Department should , accordingly , for the future , send notices of threatening weather , whenever the occasion may arise , to the Chamber of Commerce, the Trades ' Association , and to some conspicuous building in Chowringhee , (the Asiatic Society's premises , if no objection is raised,) where signal posts might be erected , and a code of signals of the description recommended be adopted. The same reports should be furnished likewise to the Editors of the leading daily papers in Calcutta , to enable them (if they think fit) to issue extra notices to their subscribers .
3. This code of signals will , it is hoped , keep the general public sufficiently informed , during the day time , either of the possibility or of the immediate imminence of a severe storm , as the case may be ; and in regard to night signals , His Honor concurs with the Committee in the opinion that little or no advantage would accrue to the public in general by their adoption. It will , therefore, be sufficient if lamps ready prepared for night signals are kept at the Dock - Yard and at the new Bankshall, for the information of the Shipping .
4. Paragraphs 9 and 10. The Lieutenant -Governor understands that a further and more detailed report may be expected from the Committee on the subject treated of in these two paragraphs.
5. Paragraph 11. In order to remedy the want of uniformity in the forms of returns now in use , the Meteorological Committee should, in com- munication with the Inspector-General of Hospitals , make arrangements for the preparation and circulation of a uniform set of forms of Registers to be used at all observing stations . As the Inspector- General of Hospitals has been made an ex - officio Member of the Committee , no difficulty will probably be experienced in effecting this , and the Lieutenant-Governor hopes that no further complaints of the inconvenience arising from the want of uniformity will be necessary .
6. Paragraph 12.- The Lieutenant -Governor is prepared to sanction any moderate outlay for the purpose of supplying additional instruments for observing stations . A specific proposal, with estimate of cost , should be submitted for approval and sanction .
7. Paragraph 14. Similarly , an estimate for the requisite apparatus for testing marine and storm barometers should be submitted . Sanction to the testing by the Meteorological Reporter of all thermometers hercafter to be issued has been already given in paragraph 2 of my No. 2721 , dated 8th July 1867 , and the Lieutenant-Governor now approves of your further proposal to have all other instruments , as opportunity offers , tested by the same Officer .
8. Paragraph 15. The Lieutenant -Governor will be glad to learn whether the roof of the new Bankshall would be a proper place for the Meteorological Observatory. There would be many advantages in adopting it, but if the contiguity of other buildings is a fatal objection to its selection, the Committee should propose some other spot for approval .

Report on the Cultivation of Cinchona at Darjeeling , during the month of October 1867 .
From T. ANDERSON , ESQ. , M. D. , Superintendent , Botanical Gardens , and in charge of Cinchona Cultivation in Bengal , to the Junior Secretary to the Government of Bengal , ( No. 110 , dated Botanical Gardens , the 14th January 1868. )
I HAVE the honor to forward the Report on the cultivation of Cinchona at Darjeeling, during the month of October 1867.
Report on the cultivation of Cinchona at Darjerling , during the month of October 1867 .
THR operations during the month consisted of cutting the jungle around the plants the permanent plantations , and of opening up the soil around the plants . 75,000 plants were transferred to the open air nursery beds . The increase by cuttings during the month amounted to 85,000 plants
The weather was warm and comparatively dry , and only 6:05 inches of rain fell during the month

C.Succirubra1 Progress of Irrigation in the Cuttack Division.
From T. E. RAVENSHAW, ESQ. , Officiating Commissioner of the Cuttack Division, to the Secre- tary to the Board of Revenue, Lower Prosinces ,- (No . 264 , dated Camp Keonjurgur, the 10th December 1867.)
I HAVE the honor to submit, in original, correspondence and documents received with Cuttack Collector's No. 597, dated 2nd December 1867 , shewing the progress made in irrigation . The results though not brilliant are on the whole satisfactory, as shewing errors in cultivation detected and causes of failure ascertained , not only by the Revenue and Irrigation Company's Officers, but by the people themselves.
2. A Special Superintendent of Irrigationgation has been appointed by the whose entire attention will be devoted to thee devoted to the subject , and from the excellent understanding and cordiality, which appears to exist between Government officials and the Irrigation Company's Officers , 1 am led to believe that no pains will be spared and no means left untried, to disseminate practical information among the people, and to induce them to ascertain for them- selves,by actual experiment, the advantages they may expect to obtain by adopting systematic irrigation.
3. The continued indifference exhibited by landed proprietors can only be overcome by time and patience, and I not think much direct influence or action can be expected from them. They are as a body exceedingly averse to the introduction of anything new, or any change in the immemorial customs of the country and system of agriculture . They have but little independence and an intense objection to come forward and start any new project . In conver- sations with landed proprietors , I have often been met by the following objection to irrigation:- lat-I do not believe it will pay, or that two crops can be obtained from the same laud.
2nd. I will have no objection to take water and to use every influence to induce my ryots to take water, if every other Zemindar will do the same . Each individual hesitates in the same manner, and it takes a long time to induce united action.
4. From my knowledge of the feelings and habits of the people of Orissa of all classes , I believe the commencement and progress already made in irrigation , is as favorable on the whole , as could be expected; and that it only requires time to develop itself. As soon as a few indivi- dual ryots have been tempted to try the experiment and have succeeded , others will do the same, and the small beginning already made is an earnest of better things . As soon as indivi- dual ryots here and there succeed, numbers will follow their example ; Zemindars will gra- dually find their fears of deterioration of the land, unfounded. Those who have taken irriga- tion water will be in a position to pay their rents with greater regularity . By degrees Zemindars will, like their ryots, cease to have any doubt of success , and ere long become as anxious to promote irrigation as they are now indifferent to its use .
5. I quiteI quite agree with the Deputy Collector that there is no active opposition on the of Zemindars , and that their prejudices and indifference will be gradually overcome . part of 6. The measures adopted by the Irrigation Company in offering a bonus to such rvots as may succeed in rearing the best crops , appear judicious ; but I should , at the same time, like to see a few more experimental farms taken in hand by the Company , as I feel assured that any extra expenditure on this account , would be small in comparison with the results . I have communicated these views to the local Agent and Manager, and I trust the Company may be induced to repeat the experiment of last year, which only failed through insufficient attention to ordinary selection of seed and land, which, with the experience now gained, should not recur.
7, I am happy to observe that the Company have not pressed for water rates , on lands which failed either through inability of the Company to supply a full amount of water , or through ignorance of the people in applying it when supplied. This will do much towards gainingaining confidence of the people , who are beginning to regard the Company's opera- tions with favor . The late famine has not been without its results in giving confidence in the Company's Officers , as large employers of labor , which has been the means of preserving a large number of the population . The Company's Odicers have been most assiduous in supervising work done, in prompt payment, and in preserving the laborers from extortion on the part of contractors . All these circumstances have combined to induce a degree of confi- dence , which cannot be without its ultimate results in the spread of irrigation .
8. 1 am happyto observe a disposition to extend cotton cultivation and the improvement in the yield and also in the staple, of produce is a subject which cannot be too carefully attended to . The measures taken in issuing a notification, shewing results of experiments in Nagpore, are judicious . I have directed the Irrigation Deputy Collector to use every influence carefully and persistently, in communication with the people to disseminate information regarding the modes of cultivation , and to keep a careful record of the results of any experiments that may be taken in hand , either by the Irrigation Company direct, or by the people, and ta endeavour to utilize the results by giving them the widest possible publication.

9. In forwarding the correspondence in original, I have the honor to request its return, and if considered worth printing as a record of progress in Orissa, I shall be obliged by a few copies for distribution ,
From W. MACPHERSON , Esq. , Collector of Cuttack , to the Commissioner of the Cuttack Division, ( No. 597 , dated the 2nd December 1867.)
I HAVE the honor to forward for your perusal , a report , No. 41 of the 1st November, from the Deputy Collector employed in the collection of water rates , shewing the progress made up to date in registering leases , and collecting the dues , & c ., &c .; also a letter with annexures from Mr. Boothby, on the same subject .
2. Mr. Boothby's attention was called to the delay in submitting leases for registration, which of course retarded the collections . The appointment of Mr. Roberts and the clearing off of arrears, will obviate such delay in future . 3. All claims in cases where the Company failed to supply water, will be struck off.
4. The return of all enclosures is requested when done with .

3. From the above it will be seen that the leases were sent in with great irregularity, for which I could not make any demand of water rates earlier than August . As the leases received during June and July had to be registered together, and the registration could not be finished till the end of July. The cause of this irregularity in the despatch of the leases by the Company's Overseer, with whom they remained was, as I have understood, the protracted ill-health of that Officerfrom April , and that in many cases the leases had to be revised to be fit for registration , accordingto the rules . The leases being on old forms, and formerly executed, several items had been omitted to be filled in . I hope that in future the leases will be sent in punctually and properly filled up . The recent appointment of a Superintendent of Irrigation Works on the Company's behalf is , I doubt not, a good guarantee against any irregularity henceforth . It is very necessary for convenience of my business to save time and labor , and for other obvious reasons , that the leases should be sent in as soon as executed or weekly. The old leases , coming in by batches , after long intervals, kept my Mohurirs sometimes quite unemployed , and at others overburdened them with work . Then again I regret for the last batch coming in so late as September. Had it been received together with the others , the collection of rates due could have been better made at the same time .
4. 'The first demand of rates was for Rupees 1,362-2 , of which Rupees 554-14 have been realized . The sum of Rupees 1,362-2 also included many cases, in wbich , as I found on enquiry , no water could be given or any was taken, though the lenses in such cases have not been cancelled by the Company's Overseer ; and the cultivators generally had received promises of remission of water rates from the Company's Officers in case of failure of the crops . Under these circumstances , and considering the general loss of crops during the last year , I think the collection is fair , and as reflecting much credit on the good charac- ter of the ryots , of whom those that made even a partial gain, paid up their dues with alacrity . The next demand to follow soon is for Rupees 1,161-5-5 .
5. The total number of leases received from the beginning to the end of the quarter expiring with last September , for which according to the remarks of the Company's Overseer noted on the leases , water was given at 411 for 667 acres 21 goonts 13 biswas, the water rates amounting to Rupees 2,523-7-5 ; 592 is the number of leases for 1,505 acres 21 goonta 12 biswas, for which water could not be given , the rates being Rupees 4,638-9-8 ; and those contracted for at the rate of cubic yards , for which water could not or was not taken , [ 54 ]
number at 98 concerning an area of 937 acres . The grand total of all the leases executed last year on the Kendraparah Canal is therefore, 1,101 in number , for 3,131 acres 6 goonts 1 biswas .
6. For easy and speedy execution of the leases , I think the Company's Mohurirs should have power to measure the lands to be included in the leases , and the measurement may sub- sequently be checked by superior Officers of the Company . The sale of water by volumevol is the most convenient mode of distributing water , but the annual leases and the single crop leases necessitate the sale by area. It is therefore, of the greatest importance for the Company to have irrigation field maps , which can be prepared with the aid of the Revenue Survey maps and the village Bhowrias .
7. It is very gratifying that the parties mentioned by Mr. Taylor who were dis- satisfied last year on account of the failure on the part of the Company to water their crops , which died off in consequence, have again taken out leases . Their water rates of the last year have not been taken , and Mr. Boothby has given them suitable compensations .

Poobhuns , are at present in length as follows : -

The 7th and 9th distributaries have not yet been undertaken. The only distributary of the High Level Canal , which has been opened , is the distributary No. 1, it has gone down about eight miles . Three or four more distributaries will be made ready in a short time .
However, water can be given from the Main Canal , which now extends a little beyond Korai , whenever it is wanted. But the people on the High Level Canal are less prepared to take water than those on the Kendraparah Canal , the reason of which is to be found in the fact that the latter have been longer under instructions , have seen more distributaries , whose water is in itself a great temptation to them ; and have seen some experiments made before their eyes . I think the one set of cultivators is at least an year in advance of the other, in
respect to irrigation . 9. While the other works of the Company had to be slackened during the rains, the second lock of the Kendraparah Canal , which is at Barburia , has made a very rapid progress . I think within a fortnight hence the gates will be put on , and boats will be able to pass up to Kendoopatna , the place of the third Lock.
10. Since none of the leases executed in 1866 came to hand till June, I devoted the entire period, from the date of my joining office on the 8th April to the end of May, only to assist Mr. Taylor in inducing the people to make use of the water provided for irrigation . 11. From different stations 1 inspected the Company's works ; visited the principal villages, by or through which the canal and the distributaries pass ; and held conferences with most of the head ryots and tehsildars of their zemindars , who were not to be seen in the Mofussil . The people everywhere expressed their gratitude to the Company for having saved them from the evils of drought and flood, and their willingness to take water whenever rain ailed, and for such dry season crops as brinjals, & c. , which they have now to grow by baling water at a greater cost , or cannot grow for want of water. But nowhere did I find a man chat would enter into annual leases for two crops on the same ground , or single crop leases for growing an additional paddy crop on the same ground , or any other new crop on the paddy fields , as they did not know what benefits could be derived therefrom. In short, the people generally seemed not to believe in the utility of irrigation water for growing an addie ional , i. e ., a new crop on the same ground , excepting waste lands, which could of course be bereby brought under cultivation ; neither did they appear to entertain any hopes of improv- ng the quality or quantity of their crops by irrigation . Our endeavours , therefore , as it seem- d to ine at the time, bore but little fruit . One good result , however, was for the first time hen established . The people then came to know from us the exact relation which exists between the Company and the Government . And this knowledge , I have reasons to believe, ed them to consider more seriously than before, the question of the water provided for irriga- ion, the effects of which I hope will soon appear.
12. The cultivators are ready to use the water , if they see they can make any benefits 'rom it . But no experiments have yet been made to convince them of their erroneous notions, and they do not choose to make any themselves , as they are sure it must fail . Their past experience on the contrary supports their opinion. The failure of the Company's model farm , and of the last year's crop , is a sad precedent with them . The cause of the failure of the farm , as I have understood , was mismanagement on the part of the Company's Officer, whom t was entrusted with . Ile proceeded with the cultivation, regardless of the nature of the oil , season and seed ; and it is no wonder the consequence would be a disappointment. And [ 55 ]
the ryots, too anxious to grow a Daloon crop last year, when rice was so dear , took no care to sow good seed on suitable soil , or on soil properly manured , they likewise failed, excepting in a few cases, in which the people of Barburia and Modhiokuch met with a partial success .
13. The people of Barburia alias Mahantishahy, and next to them , those of Modhio- kuch , living near the second Lock of the Canal , where they must have met with several Officers of the Company, who no doubt frequently gave them instructions in the use of the water for irrigation, have now been able to raise a sarad paddy crop on the bealee fields , after harvest- ing the bealee : one Bhoobnee Soonyee , of the first named village, is said to have cut three paddy crops on the same Bealce field in the same year : one Dalooa, another , a Bealee ; and then the third , a Sarud crop . None, however, of even these people have yet attempted to raise any additional crop on the sarud paddy grounds , either not believing they can produce any other crop, or they fear any other crop would interfere with the growing of sarud paddy, which is the principal production of their labor. At Barburia there is now not a gout of land, formerly waste , that has not been brought under cultivation by means of irrigation water; so that the first step , irrigation has taken, is towards the increase of the area of culti- vated land in an estate , and yet the Zemindars do not wake up to their duties to irrigation !
14. While such is the faith of the rycts in irrigation in its full extent, that of the Zemindars is worse . Their greater intelligence has not enabled them to understand irrigation in a better light . On the contrary, more tenacious of old customs, and old customs have prac- tically more force on them, with no knowledge of agriculture , they throw ice water on its object, so far as respects the principal parts of it,it , namely, thethe growinggrowing ofof an additional crop on the same ground , and the improvement of the quality and quantity of a crop. Their apathy and indifference remarkable as they are , might be construed into an actually secret opposition to irrigation . We sent for several of them, but scarcely one of any repute, came to hear what we had to say . Those who came were only the Tesildars , who promised to write to their principals on the subject , but never came back with any answer. But, however, I have yet found no reasons to believe that any one of them prevents his ryots to take water,water, when he wishes to do so . Most of the ryots are unnecessarily in dread of their Zemindars in the matter, and do not dare take water without previously taking their consent, which the Zemindars of course withhold, not only not believing that the same ground will produce another crop, which will pay the cultivators , but also fearing that, if any short crop be raised on the same field, it will have the only effect of reducing the quantity of the crop now being produced on it, and that their ryots consequently will be in a worse position to pay their rents, while on the High Level Canal in last September , some of the ryots , who had been sent for, first saw their Tesildar before coming to me , and they appeared less disposed to listen to my instructions , than others that came direct .
15. In such a state of things , it is certainly very desirable that some successful experi- ments should be made . By this however, I do not mean that irrigation will not spread without such experiments . All that I mean is that those experiments will immensely acce- lerate the progress of irrigation, while left to itself, it will increase but gradually . The water will of course tempt the ryots to use it, and they must do it by small quantities : one suc- cessful cultivation shall be followed by another, till the whole country be under irrigation . But this process will take much longer time . Mr. Boothby's plan will, I hope , compensate for the absence of experiments . He has proposed to offer bonuses to a few ryots of different localities, who will grow two crops of paddy on the same ground in the year. He will carry out his proposal in March next . The ryots, to get the bonuses , must grow the crops under instructions of the Company's Officers , must richly manure the seed bed , sow it about the middle of April , and transplant the young plants , when about eight inches high , in June , as soon as the Monsoon sets in . This crop may be cut with certainty in November , to be followed by another similarly cultivated crop in December , which maybe cut in May, thus saving two months' time for ploughing and drying the fields , which cannot be had under the broad- cast system . The produce under the transplanting method , is sure to be very much greater than according to the other mode . I think the above scheme of Mr. Boothby is quite sound, only, I am not quite sure whether the very low lands will have sufficient drying before the second transplantation takes place , to destroy the roots of the previous crop, so essential to thethe grgrowth of another . Of thisthis I shall be ableable to give exact information in my next report, after actual inspection of the fields in December next . If there remains any water on them at the time , then this circumstance and the superior quality of the Jhils should be considerations enough to induce the Company to keep them clear of water in November, by efficient drainage .
16. The annual lenses are the best, both for the Company's and the ryots' interests . The latter instead of growing single crops at Rupees 3 , can, more profitably to themselves, grow for Rupces 2, in addiaddition two crops of paddy under the transplanting method, the first tane will be very much more in value than the present sarud, under the broad - east mode ; or they can grow the first irrigated crop of paddy , and raise any of the following crops according to the nature of the soil , namely, Mandooa, Kallye, Bagun , Moong, China, Wheat, Barley, Indian corn, Teshce, Cotton, Daloon, &c . Annual leases will save to the ryots a Rupee per annum per acre .
[ 56 ]
17. But I think that instead of two paddy crops, it will be better for the ryots to grow the first irrigated sarud paddy, and some such crop as Nulajya , Teshre, which can be easily grown on most , if not all, of the Sarud as well as the Bealee fields, and is more valuable than paddy.
18. Whichever two crops the ryots may grow , they must give up their present mode of broad-casting, and alter the season for sowing the seed bed in adoption of the transplanting method, which must prevail in due time . The prospect of an additional paddy or other crop ; the improvement in the quantity of the sarud paddy, which will also be safe from the effects of drought, or partial failure of rain, and from the evils of the October Gale , must , I believe , induce every cultivator to enter into annual leases in time. The October Gale, which is very frequent in Bengal and Orissa, injures the crops while in flowers . But an irrigated paddy will be neatly mature when that Gale happens, so that the crop cannot be injured by it .
19. The comparative advantages of cultivation , under the transplanting method over that under the broad-cast plan, is graphically described by Mr. Boothby in the following terms : -
"The difference of the two systems or methods may be compared to the difference between nursing and feeding a young child with every care and attention , and turning another child out of doors to feed itself.
20. It is very desirable to have precise and definite answers with regard to the following points in irrigation here ; namely , ( 1.) Lands suitable for different crops . ( 2.) Method of preparation of the land. (3. ) Manure when and how to be given. (4.) Time to be allowed to elapse between each crop, method of plouging and preparing the land. (5. ) The particular sort of rice that is suitable for irrigated crop . (6.) The time of sowing in seed bed, and how to be planted , tended and manured. (7. ) Age at which the same should be transplanted. (8. ) The advantages of broad cast and transplanted crops . (9.) The quantity of water and number of floodings to be given before ploughing, the period to elapse between ploughing and sowing . ( 10 ) The quantity of water in depth to be given to each crop after transplanted and sown . ( 11.) The number of floodings to be given to each crop, in order to bring it to maturity, and the intervals between each (12 ) The different crops that can be raised with success by irrigation , and the seasons for planting each . (13.) The probable out- turn of each crop, the cost of seed, manure and labour. Answers to such questions would be an invaluable guide in pushing on the cultivation of irrigated crops , but in the present infant state of irrigation here, all of them cannot be obtained , as I have found by trial . In the few cases of partially successful cultivation of paddy, brinjals, &., in the last year, it is impossible to ascertain the exact outturn . Any answers now would therefore, be at best, but a mere guess work , which may be correct or fallacious . By the time of my next report, I think I shall be able to make an estimate of the advantages of an irrigated Sarud paddy, under the transplanting method, by enquiries in regard to the luxuriant crop prepared by the Teligu , Wata Swamy at Loknathpore . 21. There is a general cry against the rate of annual leases , as too high , and its unifor- mity for all lands of different capabilities , as unfair . But as I understand the complaint is not based on a real understanding of the benefits of artificial irrigation, water and manure will render the lands, of present comparatively less power equally fertile with the best lands, and that the produce of an irrigated crop is nearly double of a non -irrigated crop .
22. In conclusion , I beg to inform you that , in addition to my present main duty, the collection of water rates, I have continued , and will continue, to devote as much time as I can allow, in consistency with the current office work , to inducing the people to make the best use they can of the water provided for them .
From G. W. BOOTHBY , Esq. , Agent and Manager, East India Irrigation and Canal Company, to W. MACPHERSON , ESQ. , Collector of Cuttack,-( No . 226 , dated Cuttack, the 16th November 1867. )
I HAVE the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter No. 629 , with the documents specified therein ; also extract from the Deputy Collector's Irrigation Report, No. 41 of 1st instant .
2. The Company's Superintendent of Irrigation, Mr. C. Roberts , will forward to the Deputy Collector at intervals of ten days, all the leases that are taken. In reply to the remarks in paragraph 4, I beg to observe that where the Company fail to give the water, all claim for water rate is at an end, and of course such sums should at once be struck off as unrealizable . 3.

[ 57 ]
From G. W. ВоотHBY , ESQ , Agent and Manager , East Indian Irrigation and Canal Company, to BABOO WOOMA CHURN HALDAR, Deputy Collector, Irrigation Department,-(dated Cuttack, the 19th October 1867.)
I HAVE to thank you for your communication of the 2nd instant, No. 35, and Orissa Irrigation, No. 16 of 1867. have now the pleasure to send you the enclosed paper containing your queries and my answers .
2. You will perceive that the only questions on which , in my opinion, the ryots require information, are Nos . 6, 7, and 8. To these I have given a full reply, and if you would have the goodness to put my answers into Ooryah , I will have the information sent to the Irrigation Overseerstobe circulated amongst the most influential ryots .
3. And I would call your attention to my remarks on the irtigation of cotton , which is a very profitable crop at the present high price of that article , a price which is likely to continue for some time .
Letter, dated Ath October , from Mr. Walker to Mr. Boothby . Ditto, No. 47, from Mr. Boothby to Mr.
Walker , with enclosures .
4. Closely connected with the subject matter of your letter under reply , is the enclosed copy of correspondence as marginally specified, with Mr. Walker, the Executive Engineer in charge of the High Level Canal. I trust you will afford all the aid you can in carrying into effect the trial we propose to make , and I purpose endeavouring to continue the experiment through next year, and adopting a similar
on the Kendraparah Canal . arrangementwecan so arrange as to induce an influential ryot on each canal to give a fair trial, beginning with April next , to the cultivation of two transplanted and irrigated crops on the same plot of ground, as described in my answers to your questions 6, 7, and 5, I feel sure that good results must follow. It is useless for the Company to attempt to carry out such a trial by their own servants, and I think that you are the best person to make the arrangements,
the Company of course paying all expenses. 1. Land suitable for different crops .

4. Time to be allowed to elapse between each crop, method of ploughing and pre- paring the land.
5. State the particular sort of rice that is suitable for irrigated crop, i. e . Dalooa seed not less than one year old.
All descriptions of rice are vastly benefited by irrigation, that is by regular waterings ; the plants thus never being allowed to suffer injury from drouglit. As to which kinds of rice require most water, the ryots themselves are the best judges . Seed grain should never be less , 1believe, than one year old, but the ryots need no instruction on this point.
6. State the times for sowing in seed beds and how to be planted, tended and manured.
Seed beds should be prepared early in April , by deep ploughing and plenty of manure , which latter is of the greatest consequence ; the sow- ing should take place by the 15th or 20th April, waterings being regularly given as required.
7. Age at which the same should be transplanted .
The transplanting should take place when the rainy season sets in early in June , by which time the rice plants will be about eight inches high , and if seed beds have been well manured the plants will be very fine and strong.
8. Explain the different advantages of broad- cast and transplanted crops .
9. Note the quantity of water and number of floodings to be given before ploughing. The period to elapse between ploughing and sowing .
The difference of the two systems or methods may be compared to the difference between nursing and feeding a young child with every care and attention, and turning another child out of doors to feed itself. The transplanting method , as shewr above, necessitates from the commencement careful nursing of the seed and of the young plants, which are to be strengthen- ed with plenty of manure , and never to be plenty allowed to languish or become sickly for want of water, which , as every Indian farmer knows , is often the case with the broad - cast seed and plants; a period of dry weather often nearly killing them. Then the transplanted crop [ 58 ]

gains fully two months' time, the plants being well grown when the rains begin, and by being continuously watered, as required, and never allowed to suffer from dry weather as the broad- cast crop does, the grain may be cut with certainty inNovember to be followed by another transplanted crop of rice on the same ground in December, which crop will be ready to be cut in May. The yield por acre from rice, thus carefully cultivated, and always well watered when required, has been proved, by repeated experiments made by the Madras Government, to be fully double the yield of a crop under the broad- cust method .
12. Note the different crops that can be raised with success by irrigation , and give the seasons for planting each . Rice of sorts , Beallee and Dalloca, Cotton, Mandia, ( hina Kullye, Wheat , Baguns, Indian corn, Pumkins , Sugar- cane .
The ryots are quite as well able as any one else to answer questions 9 , 10 , 11 and 12. They know what crops require water and when to give the water, the difficulty hitherto being that they had no water to give. By a report sent herewith, it willbe seen that the yield of cotton trees is trebled by plentiful waterings when the flowers appear.
18. Explain the different advantages of irrigation by acre and by volume, and by occasional floodings .
The simplest and least troublesome method of supplying irrigation water is by volume , that is measuring the water only and not the land . And the full benefits of irrigation can never be obtained until the ryots use it through- out the year.
This mustbe left to the ryots to determine ; every ryot knows that a well watered crop must yield highly and give a good profit .
11. Shew the probable out- turn of each crop, the cost of seed , manure and labor ; and shew the probable profits to be gainod by each.
(Sd) G. W. BOOTHBY, Agent and Manager.
Extract from letter from G. W. Boothby , Esq. , Agent and Manager, East India Irrigation and Canal Company, to J. P. H. Walker , Esq ., Executive Engincer, in charge of High Level Canal Irrigation , No. 47 , dated 15th October 1867 .
I AM in receipt of your letter of yesterday , by which it is satisfactory to find that the Irri- gation Overseer, Ramanjiah , exhibits such practical energy, with the view to the spread of irrigation.
2. I have much pleasure in sanctioning the Overseer's proposal " to try an experiment with aDaloon crop on the High Lovel Canal . " Nor, indeed, is the cultivation of this crop in rotation to the Beallee to be regarded as an experiment. It is true , as you remark , that efforts in regard to the Dalooa crop on the Kendraparalı Canal , were attended with indifferent results , or it might have been said, with utter failure in many cases ; but on the other hand there were several in- stances of complete success . The one result being the consequence of using wholly unfit seed grainwhich had been gathered in an immature state, only a few months previously, and the other result being the natural consequence of taking the ordinary precautions necessary in agri- culture . Moreover , in many cases on the Kendraparah Canal, the Dalooa was tried on very unsuitable soil , in fact on almost pure sand.
3. In regard to the details of the arrangements for the trial , we should, if possible, avoid taking and cultivating a plot of land ourselves ; unless, indeed, the Overseer has such complete confidence in his practical knowledge of farming as to ensure success . Otherwise it will be very up- hill work, to say nothing of the excessive cost. The laborers he employs will do no- thing beyond what they are ordered to do, and not even that unless watched overby Chupras- sees , Mohurirs , and such like .
4. The better plan by far would be to induce by a sufficiently large bonus , some experi- enced ryot to set aside one or two of his fields, and to cultivate the crop himself, we paying all expenses . This arrangement would also have the advantage of enlisting on our side all the villagers , whereas if a Teloogoo steps in to shew them how to cultivate, they wouldbe only well pleased to witness a failure . In all respects it should be made worth the ryots, while todo his utmost to ensure success , and it would be well to select some centrical and well known village for the experiment Of course the Daloou should be sown on land off which the Beallee crop has been cut this season , in order to prove the feasibility of the production of two full crops of rice; and such land should, if possible , be manured , at all events well ploughed ; old roots and weedsbeingburnt .
( 59 )
5. It is very important in making this trial of the production of two crops of rice in one season from the same land, not to lose sight of the fact , which indeed is very obvious ; that to give irrigation a fair trial it should be used not during half the season on one crop ; but through- out the season and on both the crops . By this means not only do both crops come to maturity in a shorter period, but the yield is vastly increased, fully doubled in fact . And above all, it should be explained that it is only by adopting the method of cultivation by seed beds well manured and transplanting, that the full advantages of irrigation can be obtained. For instance, a per- manent supply of irrigation water enables the ryot to plough , manure and sow the seed beds six weeks or two months before the rains set in, riz . , carly in April, so that the seed plants may be sufficiently grown to be ready for transplanting when the monsoon bursts early in June ; thon throughout the rainy season the growth of the rice is never checked by long intermissions of dry weather, consequently the crop isis ready to be harvested in all November, to be followed by another transplanted rice crop in all December , which is ready for the sickle in May : thus two full heavy rice crops are produced from the same ground in the year. And this during many years has been the invariable practice in the Godavery District.
6. The attention of the ryots should also be specially directed to the immense advantages which irrigation gives in cultivating cotton, the yield of which is more than doubled by plentiful watering when the flowers appear . On which subject I append an extract from a report made to the Commissioner of Nagpore , giving the result of an experiment of unusual waterings to a cotton crop by baling fiom a river. On the Kendraparah Canal the ryots are taking to cotton cultivation extensively , owing to the facilities affordedby irrigation . I append the Kendraparah Overseer's Report just come to hand on this subject, and it will be well to direct your Overseer's attention to this important matter.
Instructions to Ryots how to obtain the greatest advantage in the cultivation of Rice with a per
minent supply of urigation water .
SEED beds should be prepared early in April, by deep ploughing and plenty of manure, which latter is of the greatest consequence ; the sowing should take place by the 13th or 20th April , waterings being regularly given as required .
2. The transplanting should take place when the rainy season sets in early in June , by which time the rice plants will be about 8 inches high ; and if seed beds have been well manured, the plants will be very fine and strong . 3. The difference of the two systems or methods may be compared to the difference between nursing and feeding a young child with every care and attention, and turning another child out of doors to feed itself. The transplanting method, as shewn above , necessitates from the commencement careful nursing of the seed and of the young plants , which are to be strength- ened with plenty of manure and never to be allowed to languish or become sickly for want of water, which , as every Indian farmer knows , is often the case with the broad - cast seed and plants , a period of dry weather often nearly killing them . Then the transplanted crop gains fully two months' time, the plants being well grown when the rains begin; andbegin; and by being tinuously watered, as required , and never allowed to suffer from dry weather as the broad cast crop does ; the grain may be cut with certainty in November, to be followed by another trans- planted crop of rice on the same ground in December , which crop willbe ready to be cut in May. The yield per acre from rice thus carefully cultivated , and always well watered when required, has been proved by repeated experiments madeby the Madras Government, to be fully double the yield of a crop under the broad cast method. con-
Instructions regarding the advantages of irrigating cotton trees .
" THE best cotton in Nagpore is grown upon and in the neighbourhood of the River Wurdah , and of the Wuma, a rivulet running southward into the Wurdah , and the quality deteriorates the further the cultivation withdraws from the influence of the moist soil adjacent to the river bauk . I myself tried an experiment upon a field of little more than eight acres , the ploughing and sowing being conducted in the ordinary local fashion ; but as soon as the flower made its appearance, I commenced watering every evening, obtaining the water from the river by coolies . Although my field was surrounded by others sowed with the same seed, my plants wore nearly as big as currant bushes , produced at least three times the usual quantity of cotton, and the staple was equally fine but considerably longer ; in fact , nearly as long as the best Sea Island Cotton, which fetches the highest price in the English market . The natives always look with great anxiety for the rain when the flower buds begin to open . Should the Madras Irrigation Company , therefore , extend its operations to the cotton fields of Berar and Nagpore, a very wonderful change and improvement in both the quantity and quality of Indian cotton may be exported."

6. Finding that it would be difficult to regulate, the apportionment of the fees col- lected at Bombay, if some were collected under Bombay Act No. XI . of 1863 , and some under this Bill , we recommend that the Bombay Act be repealed from the first April next, and that this Act should take its place.

8. We recommend the omission of the last sen- tence of Section 32 of the Bill, which provides that every person shall be legally bound to furnish information to any officer when required . We consider that the Inspectors are armed with ample powers for searching and examining all cotton , and that it is undesirable to empower them to exact information at their pleasure . This pro- vision does not occur in the Bombay Act on which this Bill is founded .

"The Managers, in the course of the year, entered into a negotiation with the Bank of Bengal with a view to the payment of the Annuities of Annuitants in England through Messrs . Coutts and Co. , the Agents of the Bank , at more favorable rates than that allowed by the Secretary of State ."
" The rate of exchange allowed by the Secretary of State is 18. 101d. per rupec ."
"The uniform rate at which the Bank proposed to make payments through their Agents , on the same dates as payments were made by the Secretary of State in London, was 18. 114d."
"Thus an Annuitant who was drawing the full pension of £1,000 in England would, by taking advantage of the arrangements, have drawn from the Bank's Agents in London £ 1,045 . "
"The above proposal having been submitted by the Bank for the approval of Government the matter was referred to the Secretary of State for his favorable consideration.'
"The Secretary of State has, however, refused to sanction the proposal on the ground that to remit Annuitiesto England at a fixed rate of exchange involves a dealing in exchanges inconsistent with the Bank's Charter ."
"An application has been made by the Managers for the adoption of a more favorable rate of exchange, and this is still under the consideration of Government . "
"The Managers have to report the resignation of the Secretaryship by Mr. Monteath . They desire here to repeat what they said in their report to the subscribers to the Civil Fund in July last , viz. , that they cannot permit this opportunity to pass without expressing the very high sense which they entertain of the valuable service which Mr. Monteath has rendered to the lunds during the past five years . The peculiar abilities which he brought to the performance of his duties, and the unwearied assiduity with which he has discharged them , have been throughout acknowledged by the Managers and the service at large, and the Managers would now propose that a vote of thanks be awarded him by this Meeting."
" The Managers have, under Rule 19 , appointed Mr. A. Mackenzie to the office of Secretary."
" The Managers have also to lay on this table , a letter from a Meeting of Subscribers held at Allahabad and a Memorandumby Mr. Monteath which is said to have met with their approval . It is suggested that these papers shouldbe circulated to all Subscribers with the Proceedings of this Meeting."
Proposed by Mr. II . L. Harrison , seconded by Mr. Beverley, and carried unanimously, " that the Report be generally adopted , but that as the sense of this Meeting is opposed to some of the points in Mr. Monteath's Memorandum on pensionary allowances , the Managersbe requested to call a special General Meeting after due notice for the consideration of the subject ."
Proposed by Mr. Beverley , seconded by Mr. Field , and carried unanimously, " that the following gentlemen be elected Managers of the Fund for the year 1868 .

CIVIL SERVICE ANNUITY FUND, ) The 28th January 1868 . } [ 218 ]
REPORT
BY THE DIRECTORS OF THE BANK OF BENGAL , FOR THE Half-year ended 31st December 1867.
THE financial depression and superabundance of unemployed capital which were the markod characteristics of the money market during the six months ended on twenty - ninth June, have been prolonged in an aggravated form to the close of the year. With a view to stimulate a more active demand, the Directors , by successive steps in the month of July, reduced the rate of interest to three per cent . on loans payable at call-on ordinary fixed loans to three -and -a-half per cent ., and on mercantile bills to four- and - a - half per cent . per annum . Although those rates are lower than at any former period in the Bank's history, and have been almost continuous throughout the past half-year, yet they failed even to maintain the former range and extent of the Bank's advances to the public . Many of the Bank's constituents , who held large deposit balances, endeavoured to effect loans in the open market on Government Securities at the rate of two per cent. per annum but did not succeed in placing any considerable amount . The result of the prevailing inaction and dis- trust was a very large increase in the Bank's private deposits and a cash balance of unparalleled magnitude. Nor was the state of matters at the Branches materially different . Rates of interest and discount ruled lower during the entire half-year than at any previous date since the first Branch was established in 1862 .
Notwithstanding those adverse and exceptional circumstances , the Directors have to acquaint the Proprietors that the net profits for the half -year amount to Rupees 7,72,114-8-7 and admit of the payment of a dividend at the rate of seven per cent . per annum ; making with ten per cent. paid at 29th June last , a dividend for the whole year, of eight- and - a-half per cent . on the Bank's paid up Capital of two crores and twenty lacs .
No losses have been sustained at the Head Office during the past six months . At one of the Branches a small amount has been written off as a doubtful debt . After a careful scrutiny of the outstanding advances at Head Office and Branches , the Directors are in a position to state that the provision formerly made is sufficient to cover every bad and doubtful debt .
The Bank's Investments in Government Securities standing in the Books on 31st December last , at Rupees 95,14,610-8 , are very considerably under their market value .
Since the beginning of 1862 the business relations of the Bank, both at the Head Office and the , Branches, with the Presidency of Bombay, have assumed very large and important dimensions . For nearly two years past , however , the conduct of the Bank's business in that Presidency has been attended with considerable embarrassment , arising out of the critical and anomalous condition of the Bank of Bombay, who acted as Agents for the collection of the outstandings and the disposal of the proceeds realized on account of the Bank of Bengal . During the greater portion of the last six months it was deemed necessary to restrict the Bank's operations with that Presidency , until, in the near prospect of [ 219 ]
the Bank of Bombay being placed in liquidation , the Directors resolved to appoint one of their own Officers to be the Bank's Agent in Bombay. Mr. John Hector , the Bank's Chief Accountant, was selected for that office, and the Agency has accordingly been established under his charge since 4th November last .
The powers delegated to the Bank's Agent are precise and well defined , embracing only the des- cription of business formerly transacted by the Bank of Bombay as Agents of the Bank of Bengal . The Directors , although entertaining no doubt, that the appointment of an Agent in Bombay under the limitations adverted to , is a matter entirely within their own discretion and requires no sanction or authority from Government , nevertheless did not make the appointment without the distinct sano- tion of Government . This course throughout the whole procedure connected with the establishment of the Agency , and the subsequent conduct of the business , has been closely adhered to .
Since 4th November last , and on the requisition of the Government , the Directors have been enabled from the available resources of the Agency to provide for the State requirements in Bombay a sum of nearly two millions sterling , on terms which have given entire satisfaction to His Excellency the Viceroy in Conncil .

Survey in Assam .
Resolution by the Government of Bengal , ( dated Kooshtea, the 30th September 1867.)
proprietary rights are divided between numerous land owners of whom each is naturally tenacious of his own, the necessity of a civil demarcation party to precede the Professional Surveyors in order to decide all disputes as to boundaries , so that the Surveyor may work without delay and impediment, is obvious . 1
The small out- turn of the survey work done in Assam during the last two seasons , its exces- sive cost, and the reasons assigned for unsatis- factory progress in the correspondence which has passed for some time between the Govern- ment, the Board of Revenue , and the Surveyor- (General, having satisfied the Lieutenant -Gover - nor of the necessity of some material change in the survey arrangements, His Honor has given his full consideration to the subject during his visits to Cachar and Assam . The Assam Survey parties have to deal with two classes of work . In the jungle tracts , besides shewing on their Maps the topographical features of the country , they have to identify and shew the boundaries of the lots which have been granted under the old rules on rent - paying conditions, or which have been sold under the Waste Land Rules .
In the tracts which contain more cultivation they have to show the boundaries of mouzahs and villages for revenue purposes .
But in Assam it is generally accepted that the case is different . The lots of waste land have speaking , is not to identify and represent boun- been assigned on descriptions which give nothing more than a general idea of the boundaries . In the more cultivated tracts , the object, generally daries of mouzahs which have once been clearly defined , but to constitute mouzalıs for revenue purposes by assigning to each definite boundaries which shall contain so much land as is convenient. Both in the case of lots of waste land and of mouzahs , the boundaries to be assigned have to be decided more or less roughly and arbitrarily . Such boundaries can be assigned as readily by the professional survey party as by a civil demarcation party; and with the view of simplicity and of securing the thorough efficiency of the operations , it is desirable that the entire process from first to last should be placed under the direct control of the Professional Revenue Surveyor . In a letter No. 312, dated 21st September , the Commis- sioner of Assam writes :-
Hitherto the system generally followed has been that the ground is first takenken by a civil demarca- tion party under a Superintendent . It is the anty of this party to identify the boundaries of lots of waste land and of mouzahs ; to decide all disputes , and to leave such marks along the boundary which is laid down as shall ensure its ready identification by the professional survey partywhich follows.
In consequence of the rapid growth of vegeta- tion in Assam by which the marks were obliterat- ed before the professional parties took up the ground, and from other causes , it is admitted that the system has not worked well.
"The demarcation parties have now demarcated Kamroop , Seebsaugor, very nearly the whole of Nowgong, and a considerable portion of Luckun- pore . I believe that this separate demarcation survey should have beon dispensed with in Assam ; no doubt there are estates of various kinds in Assam requiring demarcating , but they are no- thing like in the same proportion , nor do they exhibit the same complexity which I am told obtains in Bengal , and I am convinced that they would have been best dealt with by the professional survey party demarcating them , which would have saved a great expense, if not waste ofmoney.
In Bengal Proper, in which the land is to a great extent underader cultivation, and in which [ 64 ]
thatat which the Commissioner of Assam has arrived, and the following arrangements were agreed upon:-
"On the Survey party procecding to take up a portion of a District in which there are tracts of waste lands, within which grants and allotments have been made , the Deputy Com- missioner of the District will furnish to the Revenue Surveyor lists of the grants and allot- ments, with such specification of their bound- aries , on rough sketches , or otherwise , as his records can supply. The object of the Reven Surveyor will then be to identify the boundaries furnished to him by the Deputy as nearly as they are capable of identification on the spot, and to assign these as the boundaries of the different lots on his Survey Map . Deputy Commissioner I would now recommend the adoption of this course with what remains to be done, more parti- cularly as the tracts remaining to be demarcated include a very large proportion of waste, and a very small proportion of lakhiraj or semi -lakhiraj land requiring demarcating I may further state that I lately held a conference at Debrooghur with the Professional Surveyor , Lieutenant Barron, the Superintendent of Surveys , Mr. L. B. B. King , and the Deputy Cemmissioner , Major Ste- wart, who has given very much attention to the same subject in Cachar , and we unanimously agrced that the separate demarcation partiesparties under Mr. King might be safely broken up , and what there was of demarcating remaining to be done transferred to the professionnal survey , and I solicit it may be understood as a definite proposi- tion that I recommend that this be now done .
" It has been found quite impossible in Assam to adjust the proper interval between the demar- cating and the professional survey operations. There is often found so little to demarcate , and the demarcation survey thus gets so far ahead of the professional survey that the thaks or temporary landmarks lett by the former for the guidance of the professional survey , disappear under the swiftly destructive influence of the climate of Assam with its rains and floods , before the latter can make use of them . Thus, even in Kamroop , where there was more demarcating work to per- form than elsewhere , the professional survey is more than a year , and will probably soon be two
"For the purpose of identifying these bound- aries with the help of the grantees , & c. , the Revenue Surveyor will send asmall party ahead under an intelligent Officer , whose dutyduty will also be to cut such lines as arc necessary to enable the Surveyor, who follows him , to survey and lay down on his Map the boundaries so identified. " If, in the course of tracing the boundary, the line cutting Officer should come upon a disputed portion of the boundary, he will merely cut such a line as may be required to enable the Surveyor to make his observation through the disputed plot from end to end ; he will make no attempt define the actual boundary. When the Sur- veyor reaches such a place, he will merely show his survey line in the Map , and no boundary, noting the remark boundary disputed ; no off- to sets taken .'
years , behind the demarcation survey. "The professional survey has , I understand, not yet broken ground on the south side of Kam- roop, nor at all in Nowgong, but has pretty well finished with Seebsaugor, and has made some pro- gress in Luckimpore. Durrung has neither been demarcated nor professionally surveyed . "With reference to the 6th paragraph of the
"Whenever the line cutting Officer comes upon such a disputed boundary, he will report it to the Revenue Surveyor , who will give immediate notice to the Deputy Commissioner, Deputy Collector , or other Civil Officer, to whom the decision of such disputes may have been assign- ed , sending at the same time a rough Map of the locality from which the place can be unmis- takeably identified. It will be the duty of the ReverRevenue Officer at once to enquire into the merits of the disputes , and to give an award, if possible, before the survey party has left the neighbourhood . Immediate notice of the award shouldbe sent to the Revenue Surveyor, with a Sketch Map shewing how the boundary has been settled ; and then the Revenue Surveyor will cause his Map to be completed by sending an Officer to take the off-sets which were omitted along the disputed portion of boundary .
"According to this system the Civil Officer will have nothing to do with the executiveexecu part of the survey proceedings ; he will simpsimply decide a dis- pute when the existence of one is certified to him by the Revenue Surveyor.
Government of India's letter , I understand it to be clearly the object of the present survey that it is to answer revenue purposes ; and , so far as that it defines the areas of villages , within which the measurements for assessment have to be made by the mouzahdars , it answers the end proposed. I think, however , that there are large tracts in every district of permanent cultivation , where the Sur- veyor, in addition to his own scientific operations, might well carry on the khusrah measurement of land, and I would have the professional survey at once instructed that they are to show every species of land , ( 1 ) ' under cultivation, ( 2) thrown out of cultivation, (3 ) tit for culti- vation ,' (4) ' waste orwaste or jungle,' (5 )(5) sites of village and gardens . They already show separately 'sites of villages, ' waste or jungle , ' and ' cul- turable laud, including in the latter land under and thrown out of cultivations , ' and Lieutenant Butter , the Professional Surveyor of Kamroop , informs me, if I understand him rightly, that he could easily give the additional details I sug- gest , both for his past and for his future work ."
" It will be distinctly understood that the mere existence of a doubt in identifying a boundary, which is described in the paper furnished by the Deputy Commissioner, will not make it necessary for the Revenue Surveyor to call in the aid of the Civil Officer ; a doubt caused by a difference between the actual features of the country and those represented in the Deputy Commissioner's papers , can be disposed of as well by the Revenue Surveyor as by a Civil Officer ; it is only when conflicting claims as to the direction of a boun- dary are advanced by different parties that the Civil Officer need bo called upon to make a judi- Three days before the Commissioner wrote as above , a conference was held in Calcutta, at the request of the Lieutenant- Governor, between the Semor Member of the Board of Revenue and Major Macdonald, the Deputy Surveyor- General for the Lower Provinces , at which the Officiating Secretary to Government attended, and explained the views of the Lioutenant -Governor . The Senior Member of the Board and the Deputy Surveyor -General came to the same conclusion as [ 65 ]

fessional Survey Department, the Lieutenant- Governor will be prepared to consider his pro- posals as to the proportion of the cost of which the Professional Survey should be so relieved . During the current financial year sums will be available to the extent of the saving in the Civil Department, which may be caused by the break- ing up of the demarcation parties .
With regard to the survey of the more culti- vated tracts . it was agreed that the same system should be adopted ; the Revenue Surveyor laying down the boundaries of mouzahs and villages as pointed out by the mouzahdars where they are clearly known; and where they are indefinite, assigning to cach mouzah or village so much land as may be convenient .
Although the Revenue Surveyor and his Assis- tants will not exercise the power of judicially deciding boundary disputes , it is obvious that some of the powers of a Collector must be con- ferred on the Revenue Surveyor, and perhaps on some of his Assistants , to enable them to enforce the attendance before them of mouzahdars and others for the purpose of pointing out existing and known boundaries .
The Lieutenant -Governor has considered the recommendation which has been made by the Board , and which is repeated in paragraphs 7 and 8 of their letter No. 3807A. , dated 20th Septem- ber, that all attempt to fix and survey the boun- daries of assigned lots of waste land should be abandoned , but His IIonor is unable to adopt the recommendation ; even if entire lots or por- tions of lots be hereafter abandoned , the boun- daries once shewn on the Survey Maps willbe useful as marking off convenient blocks , with refcrence to which future applications may be made for assignments of waste land.
It will be for the Board of Revenue and the Deputy Surveyor - General in communication , to report to Government what power should be con- ferred on the different Officers of cach survey party.
ORDERED, that a copy of this Resolution be for- warded to the Board of Revenue , Lower Pro- vinces , for information and guidance, and with a request that the required Rules may be framed and submitted with the least possible delay.
Ordered also, that a copy be forwarded to the Deputy Surveyor-General for information and guidance .
From T. B. LANE, Esq. , Socretary to the Board of Re- venue , Lower Provinces , to the Secretaryto theGo- vernment of Bengal , (No. 3982A ., dated Fort Wil- liam, the 9th October 1567. )
I AM directed to acknowledge the receipt of the Government Resolution dated 30th Septem- ber, and in reply to express the Board's belief that operations in Assam will , under the modifications of prescribed Rules therein sanc- tioned, progress far more satisfactorily than they have hitherto done .
2. The Board have, in personal conference with the Deputy Surveyor - General , agreed to the few plain Rules which he has drawn up for the guidance of his Surveyors, and which he has since submitted, as directed in the Resolution , for the approval of Government . It will be ad- visable, as the Resolution contemplates , that the Commissioner should have an opportunity of commmenting on these Rules, and should be re- quired to instruct Civil Officers in accordance with them.
It will further be necessary that these autho- rities should together draw up a set of Rules for the guidance of Officers in carrying out the sur vey of Assam and Cachar under this system . The rules so prepared will supersede the corres ponding portion of the Survey Rules which now exist. It is desirable that these Rules should be drawn up with the least possible delay by the Board and the Deputy Surveyor- General in per- sonal consultation , rather than that the prepara- tion of them should be left to the Commissioner of Assam, who is not within reach of any high authority of the Professional Survey Department . The Rules should be submitted as soon as practi cable for the approval of the Lieutenant-Governor, if necessary, consult the whowill festions which local commissioner may render advisable . The strictest injunctions should be given to the Deputy Commissioners to secure the boundaries by the requisite number of permanent marks as soon as they are laid down by the survey. In the case of purchased waste land , Section 5 , Article I. of the Board's Waste the Land Rules , reserves full power to the Deputy Commissioner to crect these at the expense the purchaser, should the purchaser fail to put them up himself whencalled upon to do so. In other cases the pillars must be erected at expense of Government . The Lieutenant -Go- vernor will rely on the Commissioner to enforce the crection of these marks before the close of the season in which the survey is made .
3. It will be sufficient for the purposes of paragraphs 13 and 14 of the Resolution , if the Surveyors and thoir Head Assistants be empow- cred as Deputy Collectors .

themselves where the producer can always com- mand a higher price on the spot for his produce than the people of Kamroop can by taking theirs to the marts of Bengal . For instance , while the rice dealer of Kamroop can send his grain down to Serajgunge and dispose of it there at Rupees 1-4 or Rupees 1-8 a maund, the cultivator at Seebsaugor , who is excluded by distance from the Serajgunge market, can get Rupees 2 a maund on the spot , so in the case of sugar and oil -seed and oil , the profit the Kamroop people can make by exporting their goor or mustard- seed is hardly equal to what the people in the tea planting dis- tricts realize by local sales . The tea plantations tend to equalize the produce markets . In regard to fertility of soil, I cannot discover either that any district of Assam has any decided and essen- tial advantage over any other which could be made the basis of a discriminative assessment .
5. The following memorandum will show at a glance the rates now current in the districts of Assam, as also those which I would recommend should be introduced . Gowalparah being perma- nently settled is not included in this scheme :-
9. The third description of land is termed Furinguttee in the nomenclature of native set- tlement ; it includes chur lands , as also all high lands of other kinds not fit for wet paddy cultiva- tion. Lands taken up for tea come under this designation; it yields to the ryot but one crop : in the cold weather if paddy is grown on it the return is less than that from land on which paddy is grown in the rains , and the grain is red coarse and does not fetch so high a price as other grain. Crops of greater value, such as mustard seed and several sorts of pulses can also be pro- duced on this kind of land , but the cost of bringing it under cultivation is always compara- tively heavy, for it is allowed to remain fallow during the rains , and when required again in the cold weather , it is generally covered with dense vegetation which requires considerable ex- pense to be removed . I propose therefore that this discription of land should bear the lowest rate of assessment , viz ., 8 annas per beegah .

10. The financial results of the increase of rate of assessments which I have recommended cannot be ascertained with accuracy until the additional classification I have suggested is made, but on a rough estimate from the records of settlements in this Office, I am of opinion that the land revenue of the province will be increased by about 1 and over what it is at present, that is to say, if we take the land revenue of Assam as it stands now in round numbers at 10 lakhs of rupees , the increase will be about 14 lakhs , or a total of 24 lakhs of rupees .

12. As a proof of the prosperous state of the Assamese and the amount they can afford to ex- pend on a single luxury, I may mention that in 1863-64 the quantity of opium sold in the province was 1,924 maunds , yielding a gross revenue of Rupees 11,35,462 .
6. It will be observed that instead of having twe rates of assessment only, as now in force, I propose having three.
In 1864-65 the price of opium was raised from Rupees 14 to Rupees 20 per seer , but instead of this acting as any check on consumption, the quantity sold during the year was 1,939 maunds , the receipts from which were Rupees 14,35,426 , or about 4 lakhs of rupees in excess of the land revenue of the province .
13. It has been urged that the large extent of unreclaimed waste land in the province is a very sensible evil in inducing migratory habits in the people, and that the natural consequence of an increase of assessments would be to cause the ryots to give up their holdings and seek for support in the reclamation of jungles .
7. The first kind, homestead and garden lands, I think can bear a higher rate of assessment than any other land, as on it is cultivated betel- nut and other fruit trees from which the ryots derive large annual profits . I may mention that from a single betel -nut tree when at maturity Rupees 2 and Rupees 3 worth of betel - nut can be obtained in one year , which always commands a ready sale on the spot, and on a single beegah of land several hundreds of these trees can be reared . The yield from jack and mango trees is also pro- portionally large . It is evident therefore that homestead and garden lands should have a sе- parate rate of assessment for itself, and that it should be higher than any other rate. I would recommend that it be fixed at 1 Rupee per beegah .
14. As these jungle lands , however , when reclaimed, will be liable , under existing rules , to the same rates of assessment as on other lands, the ryots will derive no advantage but a good deal of loss and inconvenience by resorting to such an expedient, nor do I think they will do so to any extent likely to prejudice the land revenue .
8. The second description of land called Roopit, on which the great paddy cropcrop is produced , has always borne hitherto the highest rate of assess- ment . The only advantage which it has over the third description of land is that it does not require any labour for clearing away jungle, and can therefore be easily brought under cultivation, the paddy crop being grown on it during the rains . The season when jungle springs up on other

From COLONEL H. HOPKINSON , Commissioner of Assam. & c. , & c . , to the Secretary to the Board of Revenue, Lower Provinces , ( No. 97, dated the 14th June 1866. )
I HAVE the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter to my addressdress No. 398B. , dated 31st May 1866, enquiring , with reference to my letter No. 8A . of the 23rd , and its annexures , my rea- sons in detail for differing from Mr. Mills , who in the 37th paragraph of his Report on Assam re- commended farming settlements for twenty years with the Mouzhadars of the Province of Assam . 2. In reply I beg respectfully to point out that the views expressed in my letter in question affect no difference of opinion from Mr. Mills . I might show that they rather accord with than diverge from that gentleman's recommendations ; but in truth they raise quite a different issue from that proposed byby the paragraph to which you refer me, viz . , the inexpediency of introducing the perpetual settlement into Assam, Mr. Goode- nough's application , both direct to the Board and through Mr. Jenkins, being for a perpetual settle- ment of the Mouzahs of Jyepore and Kaligogra .
3. Upon one point, however , it will be conve- nient to me to express my unqualified concurrence with Mr. Mills , namely , as to the obligation of Mouzahdars to reside in their Mouzahs , provided for under the third modification expressed in para- graph No. 37 ; whether a settlement be made for twenty years or for any shorter period, the resi- dence of a Mouzahdar within his Mouzah cannot be too strictly insisted on . A Mouzahdar mustbe regarded , and must regard himself, not merely as a revenue farmer, but as a public servant ; he has some duties to perform which are not wholly fiscal , " while I hold it is quite impossible for Govern- " ment, throughout a large province like this , to " deal directly with every cultivator. Annual " settlements have been tried repeatedly, and I " believe that from the causes above stated they "have never been found to answer . " Under these considerations he recommended that settle- ments should be made of Mouzahs for twenty years, with power to the Commissioner to reduce the term in the case of lands not ripe for longer period of settlement ; that the number of Mouzahs should be reduced by absorption of entire Mouzahs until the gross revenue amounted to Rupoes 3,000 ; that the Mouzahdar should be selected from the most respectable men of the Pergunnah , and should be bound, as far as practicable, to reside in his Mouzah ; that on the expiration of the settle- ment the lands after measurement should be re- settled with the Mouzahdar or his heirs; that the Mouzahdar should be remunerated with a commis- sion not exceeding 20 per cent .; that the right of making grants of large tracts of forest within the boundaries of the Mouzah should be reserved to Government; that the Mouzahdar should be liable to dismissal for gross mismanagement of his charge, proved on formal proceedingsto the satis faction of the Commissioner; that the fisheries in large rivers , and the right to wash for gold, should be farmed to the best advantage , the bheels being incorporated with the Mouzah to which they ap- pertain, and included in the assessment ; that the Farmers and Mouzahdars should be allowed to make their own arrangements with the fishermen ; and that the lands tilled by migratory cultivators should be fixed on the aggregate , the Mouzahdar being permitted to make his own arrangement with those who break up the lands .
and which cannot be performed vicariously. 4. The disqualification by non - residence would alone be considered by me an insuperable objec- tion to the settlement of a Mouzah with Mr. Jen- kins or Mr. Goodenough , even if the period were limited for twenty years .
5. But I have also other objections to a settle- ment with Mr. Goodenough . Mr. Mills proposed a settlement of twenty years ,twenty years ; because he thought it would advance the general improvement of the province and its people, and, above all things, extend rice cultivation ; the settlement desired by Mr. Goodenough would not , I think , contribute to this result .
6. Mr. Goodenough and Mr. Jenkins are associated in petroleum speculations , in coal spe- culations , and in tea speculations at Jyepore and its vicinity , and side by side with these interests the extension of rice cultivation would not , I imagine , engross any considerable share of their attention .
4. The Board do not consider , as argued by the Commissioner, that a non - resident proprietor or farmer is unable to discharge properly the local duties of a Mouzahdar. A village functionary, salaried, or paid as now by commission by a farmer instead of by Government , would be, in so far as they can see , an efficient substitute for the Mouzahdar. They are in favor of farming out villages, or groups of villages , after detailed set- tlement of them for the protection, if any be necessary, of ryots with rights of occupancy , or , as the Commissioner styles them , peasant proprie tors . The Boarddo not look with apprehension onthe consequences of Government farmers estab- lishing undue local influence , or on their thus se- curing a supply of labor on their tea and other enterprizes; their interest will be in the direction of attracting settlers to their villages and of ex tending clearances , and the law , if efficiently ad ministered , should be sufficient to check abuse of the influence acquired from their position .
7. On the contrary , the object these gentle- men have in view is more likely to be the control over the cultivators and the power of diverting their labour to the speculations I have named, which they hope to obtain if Jyepore and Kali- gogra were settled with them .
5. It appears probable that the necessity for determining on what terms a proprietary title shall be conveyed to farmers , and others hay force itselt on the consideration of Government in the course of the next few years . But in the meantime the Board are of opimon that a class of landed proprietors shouldbe created in Assam ,by the assignment of leases for long periods , to be eventually converted into permanent holdings .
8. Khowang , in which the Dehing Tea Com pany's Gardens are situated , and which adjoins Jyepore, might , in like manner, bo settled with Mr. Goodenough when next it fell vacant ; and , as Mouzahdar of the three Pergunnahs , Mr. Good- enough ought not only to be able to have every ryot in them completely at his mercy , but be able to keep out any competition for the coal or petroleum workings .
6. On learning the decision ofGovernment on the objections raised by the Commissioner , the Board will , if necessarnecessary, make a special reference regarding Mr. Goodenough's application . The villages for which he has applied appear to be of an enormous area, of which a very large propor tion is waste .
9. I see nothing injurious to Mr. Goodenough in imputing these motives to him . It is not necessary to assume even that his judgment is [ 71 ]

thatMr. Stansfeld referred with approbation to not upon competition , but a country where this is
the opinions expressed by the very authority , the case must needs require a very peculiar system
[ 72 ]
of taxation . Again , the nature of the land tenures| by the village communities in the Upper Provinces might determine the expediency of introducing the permanent settlement there , and turnish reasons of the strongest kind in its favor, but which would be wanting, where society was differently constituted , and where the administration was free to levy tax on the produce of land in the simplest possible way and without reference to tenures of any kind .
6. I think then that Colonel Baird Smith's report should be placed on one side in considering the expediency of a perpetual settlement for Assam , and I know of no source elsewhere where I could find argument in ite favor .
Khass management, nor here in Assam do we find that the Regulation District of Gowalpara at a settlement of only Rupees 14,000 makes more rapid stripes in prosperity than the Non - Regula- tion District of Kamroop , which lies next to it , and which yields a Land Revenue of upwards of three lakhs and a half. In fact the extension of cultivation has been much less rapid in Gowal- parah than in Kamroop . But I shall be told that no one claims for the perpetual settlement that its benefits out weigh the advantages that superiority of soil or position confer on a District or Province, even under very defective revenue arrangement ; to which I answer that there is no better reason for supposing it more powerful the other way to compensate for inferiority of soil and position .
11. What I should chiefly value the perpetual settlement in Bengal , for , is that it superseded the system of farming the revenues , which 1 regard as the worst of all systeme . The position of the ryots under ryotwaree management , pro- perly conducted , ought to be as superior to that of ryots under the zemindaree system , as that of the serfs of the Czar was to serís of proprietors , but the position of the ryots , whose taxes were farmed, when " the farmers were always and every where tyrants, and tyranised upon system," must have been lamentable .
7. I have not much faith in the efficacy or otherwise of systems of Land Revenue as systeins . The people may be over- assessed under any system , and it seems to me that it has been always very much the case to confound the system with the assessment ; no system has been more abused , and for that matter more praised than ryotwaree management. In some parts of the Madras Pre- sidency it has been stated that it ground the people to the dust ; in British Burmah they pros- per under it, but in the one case the demand was 40, 50, there were instances of 70 per cent , on the produce , while in the other case it seldom rises to 20 per cent ., and is often not more than 10 or 12 per cent .
8. It is evident that Colonel Baird Smith's objections to the settlement in the Upper Pro- vinces are really to the rates imposed under them ; and the perpetual settlement would probably not find the favor it does in Bengal , but that is a perpetual settlement of a moderate assessment . In Assam , where the population mainly consists of peasant proprietors or cultivators , each man cultivating on his own account , a land tax assess- ed to each cultivator on the area of his cultivation is substantially an Income Tax. So long as it is kept within just and moderate limits, it will press as lightly upon the people, to say the least in its favor, as an Income Tax ; it will no moro check cultivation than an Income Tax will check trade , and there is no more reason for making a perpetual settlement of it with some third party , middle- man , farmer , zemindar, or whatever he maybe called, between the state and its subjects than there is for so settling the Income Tax under Act XXXII .
12. I might recommend a perpetual settle ment for Assam, if I thought that the existing Government demand upon land in Assam was so high as not only to require a guarantee that it should not be any further increased , but also a a provision for its gradual reduction by the progressive depreciation in the value of money, and the rise in the value of land and produce; or again, I might recommend a perpetual settle- ment, if I thought the land tax was a bad tax altogether for Assam, and that any increase of taxation should take some other direction . But these are not my opinions . On the contrary I hold a land tax on the ryotwaree principle to be the most expedient way of raising a revenue in this Province , and that, from time to time, it should be enhanced as the money value of the proportion of the produce of the soil , of which it is theory assumed to be the equivalent increased ; or , as the price of labor of which it is also assumed to be an equivalent increased . I also look to the enchancement of the land tax as a means of ob- taining re - productive works , the increase being re- disbursed among the people , from whom it is taken in the shape of wages for their labor on the work .
13. A consideration of the fluctuating value of money , or rather of the progressive fall in its 9. I believe that everywhere else as in Assam , where the Government demand upon land bas taken the shape of a moderate land tax , it has not unduly trenched upon the resources of the people nor impeded the accumulation of capital ; but where it has been exacted as a rent at rates approaching the highest assessment, cultivators would pay rather than forego cultivcultivation, and which left the mass of the population than a bare subsistence , impoverishment , and dis tress have naturally resulted . lation little more

under value, in a country emerging from bar- barism guidance of a civilized Government, has led me to conclude that where a permanent settlement is adopted , it ought to fix not an amount in money, but an amount 10. I confess I am sceptical as to the share the perpetual settlement has had in producing the superior degree of prosperity enjoyed by Bengal , as contrasted with the condition of the Upper Pro- vinces . I think that the natural advantages of Bengal would suffice to account for even a greater difference; Bengal finds no advantage in the possession of a permanent settlement over the burmese Provinces or over Assam ; Chittagong under the perpetual settlement has not thriven as the adjoining District of Akyab has done under

Chowdry, the European head of the District , and the ryot , the first may be assumed to be always working towards bringing about such a change , all his aspirations are for the position of the Ben- gal zemindar , and that he may be transmuted into a direct landlord of the ryot . The Deputy Commissioner again finds the Chowdry a Tehsildar and a Zemindar, both in one , and that he has got a man to deal with , who in his rela- tions to himself and to the ryots , gives him more trouble than the first , and is as irresponsible and independent as the second ; as to the ryot, he cannotbe worse off than under a farmer , and will acquiesce therefore in any change.
14. However , I do not wish to see a perpetual settlement either in this or in any other shape in Assam ; there must be an increasing demand for expenditure in the Province, and if this should have to be provided for by any increase of local taxation, an addition to the land tax willbe the least offensive way of making it ; I deeply regret that such a view was not allowed to prevail against the extension of Act XXXII . ( Income Tax Act) to Assam . The Province would be no gainer by a bargain that gave it a perpetual settlement and Income Tax, int exchange for its ryotwareo system ; a vernment which introduced the Income Tax might be expected to favor Khass management in a country where all the people are cultivators ; for them, as I have said before , a land tax resolves itself into an Income Tax, but is far easier of ascertainn.ent , far easier to collect , much less re pugnant to the people , and much less inquisitorial on the part of Government and subjecting the former to much less exaction, and the latter to much less fraud . Go-
17. The interests of the farmer or ijaradar are not identified with the ryots as those of the Zemindar are, nor is he concerned to forward the interests of the Government as the Burmese Thoogyee is . What we want for the management of such a country as Assam is the employment , in the interior of the country , of native officials who , besides being principally Sub - Collectors of Revenue, shall also more or less exercise powers and represent the Government in every Depart- ment , the judicial possibly excepted, and who , beyond being liable for the payment of their revenue kists , shall be held mainly responsible for the peace and well -being of the Circles or Dis- tricts of which they have charge who shallbe removable or transferable , and the boundaries of whose jurisdictions shall be enlarged or reduced at pleasure ; all this the Thoogyee or Tehsildar is, or may be , but the Chowdry or farmer is not . Some years ago I was instructed to atteinpt the letting out the fiscal divisions of the country in farms or ijarahs for terms of years in the Tenas- serim Provinces , but circumstances prevented the experiment being carried , and from what I have now seen of the working of the plan in Kamroop , I am glad that it was so .
15. Lastly, supposing the expediency of a permanent settlement for Assam were conceded , with whom is the settlement to be made ? There are no zemindars , independent talookdars , and other actual proprietors of land in Assam, in the regulation sense of these terms ; but the Govern - ment is the only actual proprietor of land , subject to the reservation of the right of the ryot or actual cultivator of the soil , whatever they are under the feudal system introduced by the Alhome, who commenced their conquest of the valley about the beginning of the thirteenth century , " not only the soil , but the subject was the pro- perty of the State , the ryot could not dispose of his cultivated land by sale , gift , or even by mort gage , and , though , under us , he has been permit- ted to alienate it , yet when the local authorities urged that this right should be legally conveyed to him, the Government refused their assent : on this point, they now probably entertain different views , but I imagine that even the recognition of each petty cultivator as the actual proprietor of the soil would not make the conclusion of a per manent settlement with him practicable.
18. I would wish to restore to Kamroop , and to enforce throughout Assam , a Ryotwaree Annual Settlement of the simplest and purest character , and to the exclusion or absorption of all other taxes , the excise excepted ; with similar machinery such a tax might be collected and recovered as duties under the Income Tax are , without bring- ing at all in question the rights of parties connect- ed with the soil . I think the Government should in all cases collect their own taxes , and not farm them , and that their demand for Land Revenue in Assam can , at any rate, be more satisfactorily col- lected directly than in any other way .
From MAJOR IH. HOPKINSON , Commissioner of Assam , to the Secretary to the Board of Revenue , Lower Pro- vinces , ( No. 215 , dated the 14th April 1862. )
SINCE the despatch of my letter to you , No. 173 of the 21st February last , on the question of the extension of the Perpetual Settlement to Assam , I have often regretted that I did not think of noticing the opinion of Anundoram Phookun about it .
16. Passing next from the consideration of a perpetual settlement to the question of settlements for terms of years , I beg to state that , if by this is meant the leasing of Mehals to farmers of revenue for terms of years , I think the plan a thoroughly bad one; it has been already adopted in Kamroop, where certain Districts have been settled with farmers for periods extending to ten years , and , so far as I can judge , with unsatisfac- tory results . Such settlements appear to give the Collector far more trouble , to be less benefi- cial to the State, more exacting and oppressive for the people than the Burmese ryotwarce set- tlements ; Burmese revenue officials are too often negigent and profligate , and , where they dare, oppressive; but from all I hear, there are few Burmese Thoogyees so bad as an average Kamroop Chowdry , who tarms a Mouzah or Pergunnah on a ten years' settlement.

opinion upon it , not being a Bengal Zemindar, himself. This same Anundoram Phookun could see clearly enough the evils of the Perpetual Settlement , but was blind to the greater ones of the ijarah system under which he or his family held farms .

Cassel writes , in his Report on Cotton Culture in the Bombay Presidency, of the recent Resolution of the Governor (General of India in regard to the sale of Waste Lands , and I would earnestly com- mend it to the Board's attention .
From S. C. BAYLEY , Esq. , Officiating Secretary to the Government of Bengal , to the Secretary to the Board of Revenue, Lower Provinces , ( No. 1674 , dated Fort Wilham, the 26th April 1867. )
YOUR letter No. 151B ., dated the 10th January last , and its enclosure, having been duly con- sidered by the Lieutenant-Governor, 1 am desired in reply to state that His Honor agrees with the Commissioner of Assam in thinking it inexpedient to grant a perpetual or even a long lease of any Mouzah in the Province in which the land is already occupied by ryots , or to create rights intermediate between the ryot and the Goveru- ment, which have at present no existence .
lands the means of effecting general improve- ments in agriculture by increasing the number of reservoirs , embankments , &c . , whereby drought , inundation, and other calamities of the season could be provided against , appear to have been (as explained in the preamble to Regulation II of 1793) ' the primary objects ' of the British Government in fixing the Land Revenue of Bengal and other Provinces in perpetuity, and in declaring the proprietory rights of the landhold- ers . Ever since the introduction of the Perpetual Settlement the zemindars have , in the majority of instances , enjoyed as their private and exclusive profit from three to ten times the amount of the public assessment imposed on their estates ; and in many instances much more . But the experi- ince of more than half a century has evinced that the ' primary objects' of the Government in creating zemindarees have not been attained , and that they remain yet to be fulfiled . We are aware of no one instance in which the zemindars of Bengal have made any fair use of their vast and princely income. The art of agriculture at the present day stands in their estates nearly in the same rude state as it was several centuries back .
2. However desirable it may be to encourage the settlement of Europeans in the Province, and to dispose of the waste lands on terms which may act as an inducement to them to expend capital on its clearance and cultivation, and on the development of its agricultural and mineral capa- bilities, it certainly would not, the Lieutenant- Governor thinks , be expedient to invest them with the duties and responsibilities of Mouzahdars, a classof officers whose business , as the Commis- sioner justly observes , is not wholly fiscal, and a great part of whose functions not only cannot be performed vicariously, but are of a subordinate executive nature such as no large landed pro- prictor, whether he be an absentee or not, and least of all an European absentee proprietor , could satisfactorily or indeed possibly perform .
3. To create " e body of landed proprictors" in the sense apparently intended by the Board, " by the assignment of leases for long periods to be eventually converted into permanent holdings, simply on a theoretical view of the advantages which maybe supposed to arise from the existence of large properties , and the possession of territo- rial influence by these owners , would be a course which , supposing it to be strictly just to the ryots who now cultivate the lands and hold them by a right of occupancy, on condition of paying rent at rates determinable only by the State , and practically fixed for long periods , is hardly justi- fied by the experience of the permanent settle- ment in Bengal , and is certainly not calculated to answer any useful practical purpose in such a Province as Assam .
" The creation of reservoirs , acqueducts , canals , embankments , roads , or other extensive works for the advancement of agriculture and commerce , are seldom or nowhere to be met with in any rart of Bengal, and we cannot forbear observing that in the zemindarees immediately bordering on the Province of Assam , there is scarcely a single road fit for foot passage, although the proprietors have, for their private income , more than twenty or thirty times the amount of the public assessment . No further argument , there- fore, appears necessary to prove that the Per petual Settlement has only served to place a few zemindars in indolent ease at the ex- pense of the population . It has afforded them means to administer to their individual plea- sures ; it has enabled them to entertain hosts of indolent retainers ; to vest themselves with awful powers over their helpless ryots ; and lastly, it has been the sole cause of those sanguinary private wars, way and club fights , which are so often carried on in all Bengal with impunity and in spite of all law . Results similar to these must also ensue from the introduction of a Perpetual Settlement into Assam . Had the Government even one- fourth of the present income of the zemindars at its disposal , to be laid out in the improvement of the country , Bengal would certainly havo opened a different aspect by this time . We , therefore , sincerely hope that the Government will bless Assam with a system which , while it will lay the foundation for progressive improvements by hold- ing out reasonable encouragement to the persons entrusted with the management of lands, may obviate the mischiefs of a Permanent Settlement similar to the one introduced into Bengal.

Where the agriculture of a country in an advanced state, and where its improvement is likely to be brought about by a system of high farming on a large scale worked by a body of skilled and intelligent capitalists, it is, I am to observe , of course very desirable that, within cer- tain limits, the lands should be held by large proprietors ; and the grant of waste lands on long leases or in fee simple , in tracts not exceed- ing 3,000 acres in exteextent, ist, is calculated to give this system a fair trial in India wherever it can be applied with advantage.

on the West , is nextto complete this season. 986 square miles , comprising 769 villages , were sur- veyed during the season 1865-66 , and the opera- tions have since been extended in a northerly direction over the Bijnee and other Dooars . The demarcation of the Bijnee Dooar villages on the North of the Berhampooter, and of all the lands South of the river, 641 villages in all, was com- pleted in 1865-66,1865-66 , embracing an area of 1,800 square miles . The settlement in the current sea- son of boundary disputes between certain tea planters and Mouzadars on the South of the Berhampooter , and the demarcation of eighteen grants in Kamroop , will complete the work . The revision of the settlements in this district may therefore be easily and advantageously first taken in hand.

With regard to Government order No. 1674 , cited above, I am directed to observe that the Board are not prepared at present to report on the proposals there made for the first time for a change of the revenue system in Assam . They will reply to its 10th and 11th paragraphs hereafter, on receipt of the Commissioner's report in the matter, but meanwhile they strongly support the proposal for the deputation of a Settlement Officer to under- take the settlement of Kamroop, as suggested in paragraph 9 of the Government Order .

From E. C. BAYLEY, ESQ. , Secretary to the Government of India, Home Department , to H. L. DAMPIER, EAQ., Officiating Secretary to the Government of Bengal ,- (No. 2818, dated Simla , the 27th July 1867.)
I AM directed to acknowledge the receipt of the correspondence on the of land revenue system of Assam, forwarded with your Office endorsement No. 1675 , dated the 26th April last.
proved injurious and the Government of Bengal in rejecting the offer madeby Messrs . Jenkins and Goodenough to take a perpetual farm of certain Mouzahs . Such an arrangement, if it had been carried out, must, His Excellency in Council thinks , have proved injurious to the village occupants , and in all probability subversive of the rights and interests they now possess in the soil , while it would have destroyed their present comparatively independent position, and reduced them to the condition of cultivators dependent upon the will of those gentlemen and their successors .
5. His Excellency in Council also concurs in the spirit of the 8th , 9th , and 10th paragraphs of your Office letter to the Board of Revenue above- mentioned; but the following points seem to require consideration, and I am accordingly to request that they may be brought to His Honor's notice.
2. The Governor General in Council , I am desired to say , presumes that the remarks con- tained in Mr. Officiating Secretarv S. C. Bayley's letter to the Board of Revenue No. 1671, dated the 26th April , express the views entertained on the subject by the late Lieutenant - Governor . If this is the case, His Excellency in Council would be glad to be informed whether they are concur- red in by Ilis Honor the present Lieutenant- Governor . I am at the same time desired to point out that this correspondence does not con- tain the information asked for in the letters from this Office No 1527, dated the 31st August 1865 , and No. 3498 , dated the 6th April last , and to request that it may be stated, for the information of Ins Excellency in Council , what is the length of the existing settlements in Assam, and when they will generally expire .
3. His Excellency in Council gathers from various expressions in Mr. Mills ' Report on Assam, that certain portions of the Province have already been surveyed , and would wish to be exactly in- formed to what extent this has been done , whether there is any intention of re - surveying these por tions or not, and , it there is , what are the reasons which render a re - survey necessary .
6. If the survey of Assam is being conducted for revenue purposes , His Excellency in Council thinks that a Settlement Officer, assuming the District Officers to be unable to undertake the duty, would have been appointed simultaneously with the commencement of the survey, so that the khusrehs or field measurements might have progressed, if they were to be undertaken at all, pars passn with the survey . Unless this is done , the Governor General in Council is convinced that great discrepancies will become apparent hereafter between them , and that the survey itself will practically prove of little real value for purposes of settlement. Bearing this in mind , and assuming thut the present settlements have nearly expired, I am to suggest that it deserves consideration whether fresh settlements for a moderate term of, say seven or ten years , founded on local enquiry of a general character , and checked by the survey returns, might not be made. But if the present 4.

introduction of settlements for terms of years should be tried in Kamroop , and Captain Sherer , the Deputy Commissioner of Kamroop , will make enquiries on this point during the present cold season .
12. I have said in a previous part of this letter that I did not quite see my way to the employment of a " Settlement Officer" properly so called in Assam , but I think it would be well worth while to consider whether a special officer , familiar with the mode of land revenue asяевь- ment in British Burmab , or a Madras fiscal officer skilled in the ryotwarree system of that Presidency , might not, with great advantage, be deputed to Kamroop to enquire into and report upon the ryotwarree settlements made there , and what improvements could be effected . Sir Arthur Phayre had some Special Officers employed on similar duty in British Burmah , and perhapsrhaps one of these might be found available .
13. Meanwhile, I would respectfully urge that the settlement on clear and defined princi . ples of the revenue system of Assam need not interfere with a revision of the present rates of rent or assessment throughout Assam, and that this may be carried out at once on the basis of the proposals made by me in No. 173, dated the 14th June 1865 , to the Secretary to the Government of Bengal . I will not here repeat the arguments I made use of in that letter , nor the detailed explanations I gave, but I extract the following memorandum, shewing at a glance the rates now current in the Districts of Assam as also those which I would recommend should be introduced :-

10. With reference to paragraph 7 , I submit that there is no question of the reduction of a Mouzahdar to the status of a mere Tehsildar , since his actual position is generally rather below than above that of a Tehsildar, so far as that he has a smaller charge . The best Mouzahdars have little or no land of their own in their mouzahs , and are constantly without local or hereditary connection with them ; they are simply Tax Collectors , and might , as observed, be dis- pensed with if the occupants of the soil could be induced to take up their own settlements , of which , however , I see at present little chance. There is one other use of the Mouzahdar, how ever , that they everywhere represent our adminis- tration and are bound to stand or fallby it ; they constitute an official aristocracy in the interior of the country of our own creation , and we have none but them to trust to , to know what is going on; for our Police for the most part are as much foreigners as ourselves , and know less of the province and the people . In British Burmah , where the circumstances are the same, it has been found necessary to have the Thoogyee pre- cisely what the Mouzahdar is with us in Assam. We consider it a positive disqualification that a Mouzahdar should have any considerable stake in land within his monzah , and he is never a mana- ger on behalf of other persons . It is most im- portant to remember, as was pointed out by General Jenkins , that " with regard also to the manner of levying the taxes , it may be necessary to observe that, as far as has fallen under my observation, there is no germ of any village

community in any part of Assam." Every ryot is equal to and independent of every other ryot of whatever caste , and there never were village servants . All Collectors of taxes from the highest Phokun to the lowest Bora of a village were officers of Government , and were liableto dismissal , though in most in stances a successor to a vacant appointment caused by death was generally taken from the same family."
The present land revenue of Assam amounts in round figures to Rupees 11,50,000 , and I estimate that the increased rates I have proposed will , when fully carried out, raise it to about Rupees 24 lacs .
14. In the event of this proposed increase of rates receiving the sanction of Government , I should be glad that the Board's suggestion in favor of the Commissioner using and acting on his discretion in carrying out details of the mea- sure, within such time and in such manner as he may find expedient and reporting results only to the Board , will be adopted .
11. It has not been found to answer to let the Mouzahdar have any perquisite beyond his com- neither in permanently cultivated tracts , nor where the cultivation is fugitive and uncertain, as described in paragraph S of the Government of India's letter . The Mouzahdar is spoiled when he is allowed to be come anything like a farmer of revenue to any extent whatever . It is a mistake even to regard him as a person who can directly increase culti- vation. He may prevent increase by corrupt or oppressive conduct, and so far an improgressive mouzah implies bad management ; but otherwise increase of cultivation should be looked to depend entirely on the spontaneous action of the ryot, who may be safely depended upon to increase it, where it is his interest to do so . The Mouzah- dars must be regarded simply as administrative officers charged with the collection of the reve- nue, and with such executive functions as may be assigned them, and I see no objection to their being called Tehsildars . The change will not cause confusion in Assam ; and out of it , I think, it will prevent the confusion which the term " Mouzalıdar" has hitherto invariably created.
15. The people of the country have been long expecting an increase in the rates of assessment and are pr are prepared for it , and it is probable that the measure now proposed might be carried out simultaneously throughout the whole province without creating the scandal of a single distur- bance, but I cannot give an absolute guarantee that this wouldbe the case . The doubling the rent of a whole people cannot be expected to be a popular measure, and in particular quarters which are either remote or where the cultivators are somewhat turbulent in disposition , or where they have young officers over them, feelings of [ 81 ]

dissatisfaction might find expression in overt acts , if the increase of rates was made too suddenly and too generally ; but I do not think we should have any trouble any where if the Commissioner were allowed to commence the measure with those officers who have the greatest influence , and in those districts or parts of districts inost prepared to receive the innovation , and then , when once we had got the change quietly established in such places, the rest of the province would accept them without demur .

16. Kamroop is the largest district in Assam , the most populous, and which yields the largest revenue; it is the district to which the other districts most look , which , if such a term can be applied in such a case , most leads public opinion , while at the same time it is the district best under control and most amenable to authority . I should like therefore to begin at once with Kamroop and impose the increased rates therein, and I should have the assistance of Captain Shearer, the Deputy Commissioner, than whom a better officer for introducing a measure of the kind I do not know , and from whom I have already received assurances of his readiness to carry it out, and his confidence that it can be executed with complete success .

At the same time I would place myself in communication with the other district officers , and as circumstances would appear to require, arrange with them the introduction of the in- creased rates simultaneously with Kamroop , or only after they had been carried out in Kamroop , and either wholly or partially in each district.
18. It might be found desirable even to con- fine the introduction of the increased rates at first to those mouzahs which lie within a certain radius, say of 10 miles from the Sudder Station.

20. Meanwhile, I hope it will be understood that I submit it as a definite proposition, that the Deputy Commissioner of KarKamroopbe allowed to make his next assessments , i.e. , those for 1868-69 , at the enhanced rates generally throughout his district .

I believe it also to be tolerably well ascertained that they never have been " proprietors of their lands," and that Mr. Mills's statement is correct, under the curious feudal system introduced by the Ahoms in the 13th century, not only the soil but the subject himself was held to be the property of the State .

23. With reference to paragraph 11 , I have to explain that it has been supposed hitherto in Assam that a Mouzahdar or Chowdry correspond- ed to a Tehsildar . But a Tehsildar charged with the collection of a lac , or a lac and a half of Rupees, and who was also a Moonsiff and Superin- tendent of Police, almost represents the position of our sub -divisional officers . Our sub -divisions would in the North - Western Provinces be really considered, I supposo, as mere Tehsidarees .

The Board, in reporting on these proposals on the 18th June 1867 , have given a statement , from which it appears that the land revenue of the temporarily settled Districts, which now con- stitute the Assam Province, has gradually risen as below , in consequence of the extension of cultiva- tion, as well as of the enhancement of assessment made under the orders of 1861 .

Colonel Hopkinson further proposed that the rates should be equalized in all Districts as shown in the following table.

H. HOPKINSON ,
Commissioner of Assum.
16. From a Statement annex- ed to the Commis- stoner's letter of the 21st Septein- ber , it appears that out of 953 Mouzahs in the Province, two only are under settlements which have above five years, and 47 un- der settlements which have less than five and above one year to run . The remaining 934 Mouzahs are under annual settlement.
that transfers are registered in the Office of the Deputy Commissioners or Mouzahdars .
IV.- Lands which may be brought under cul- tivation during the currency of the settlement shallbe assessed on actual incasurements year by year . At the next settlement a hereditary and traneferable title will be conferred on the culti- vators who maybe found in possession of lands which they have so brought under cultivation, or on their representatives .
17. Field measurements and local enquiries snould he commenced in the approaching season , and should follow the survey as closely as is prae- ticable ; but the Lieutenant -Governor accedes to the request of the Commissioner to leave to him the fullest discretion " in carrying out the details " of the measure within such time and in such "manuer as he may find expedient; " and to allow him considerable latitude as to the manner in which he may feel his way to the end of intro- ducing the full rates which he has proposed .
18. The definite proposition which the Com- missionor subnats in the 20th paragraph of his letter, that " the Deputy Commissioner of Kam roop be allowed to make his next assessments , " it. , those for 1665-69 , at the enhanced rates " generally throughout his District, " may be acted upon .
19. The settlements will be made on the fol- lowing principles : -
I. The term of settlement shall ordinarily be ten years ; but it willbe in the discretion of the Commissioner to make settlements for fifteen years , where, in his opinton, special local circumstances make such a term desirable .
V-For the purpose of making collections directly from the ryots, the Mouzahdars will be retained on their present footing . They will be remunerated by a commission of 15 per cent . on the rents which they may pav in ; they will be liable to dismissal for misconduct. Ordinarily when a Mouzahdar has performed his duties satisfactorily, the Deputy Commissioner will select a qualified successor from the members of his family; but this will be purely an act of favor in recognition of the Mouzahdar's services . VI. In order to give the Mouzahdars au inter- est in using their influence to extend the cultiva- tion during the currency of the settlement , they shall receive an allowance of 50 per cent . on all rents which maybe collected from lands brought into cultivation after the first settlement of the Mouzah . It will be distinctly understood that this allowance will continueontinue duringdurin the currency of the settlement only , and will give the Mouzah- dar no further right whatever in the lands or Mouzah .
II. The settlement for all lands which are found occupied shall be made directlyby the settlement Officers with the occupant ryots ; the rates of ussessment shall be fixed for the term of the settlement , but shall be hable to alteration in future settlements .
VII . The ryots of each village , or of each cluster of villages , shall be required at the time of settlement to nominate a headmau from among their number, whose duty it will be to assist the III.- Holdings so settled with the ryots shall be hereditable and transferable, on the condition [ 86 ]

Looking at the amount of collections which will be made in each District, the Lieuten- ant - Governor does not think it advisable to in- terpose Tehsildars between the Deputy Commis- sioners and the Mouzahdars ; the Mouzadars will pay their collections into the Treasury of the Deputy Commissioner , or , where the Mouzah lies within the limits of a Sub- Division , into the Sub -Divisional Oflice .

The decline in both importations and clearances is no doubt the consequence of a falling off in the demand for Kurkutch Salt ; sales being confined, as in the previous quarter , almost exclusively to the Government and Liverpool Pungah Salts .

In Sections 3 , 5 , 6 , and 7 of the said Act V of 1862 , the words " or any other port of survey" shall be deemed and Under the existing law, tenures of land , which by the title -deeds or the established usage of the country are transferable, and which are not estates paying revenue direct to Government , are liable to sale for the recovery of certain demands which have been declared to be recoverable as arrears of revenue .
taken to be inserted therein after the word " Calcutta " wherever the said word may occur in the said Sections , and from and after the passing of this Act the said Sec- tions shallbe read and construed as if the said words had been so inserted .
Such sales are to be conducted " accordingto the rules prescribed for such sales ."
Absence from and arrival at port of survey to be substituted for ab. sence from and return to Culcutta.
IV. In Section 12 of the said Act V of 1862 , the words " shall not be in any port of survey" shall be substituted for the words " is absent from the port of Calcutta" ; and the words Act XI: of 1859 is held to be inapplicable to the sales of such tenures , as they are not estates or shares of estates paying revenue direct to GovernmGovernment; whilo Act VIII . of 1835 , which did prescribe a mode of procedure, though brief and defective, for such sales , has been repealed .
In the absence of any Act or Regulation pres- cribing rules tor such sales , it is held to be doubt- ful whether rules prescribed by the executive Government would legally suffice , and, it has therefore been deemed expedient to introduce a Bill to prescribe the procedure under which such sales should be conducted .
" arrival at some port of survey" shall be sub- stituted for the words " return to the port of Calcutta" ; and the said Section shall from and after the passing of this Actbe read and con- strued as if the said words so to be substituted had been originally inserted in the said Act , instead of the said words for which they are so to be substituted .

The Bill in question has been prepared chiefly in accordance with the provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure , which relate to the sale of tenures in execution of decrees for demands other than rent due in respect of the tenure itself, supple- mented, where necessary , by further provisions based on those of Act VIII of 1865 , B.

STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS .
Asst . Secretary to the Govt . of Bengal, Legislative Department.
THE following Bill was read in the Council of the Lieutenant- Governor of Bengal for the pur- pose of making Laws and Regulations on the 15th February 1868, and was referred to a Select Committee, who are to report thereon after the 19th of March next :-
A Bill to make further provision for the survey of Steam Vessels plying within the Provinces sub- jeet to the Lieutenant - Governor of Bengal.
As Act V of 1862 of the Bengal Council has not made provision for tre compulsory survey of steam vessels in any port except Calcutta , and the same reasons which make it advisable to have surveys of steam vessels which trade from Calcutta, apply with equal force to steam vessels which never come into that port , the present Bill is intended to remedy this defect and to make the survey of steam vessels , which come into any port appointed as a port of surveyby the Lieutenant- Governor, compulsory .
WHERKAR it is expedient to make further pro- vision for the survey by com-

Registration in the District of Chittagong .
From H. BEVERLEY , Esq. , Registrar-General , Lower Provinces , to the Secretary to the Government of Bengal , (No . 288, dated Fort William , the 17th January 1868. ) I HAVE the honor to forward , for the information of Govern- ment, the accompanying extract ( paragraphs 7 and 9) from Mr. Geddes ' Inspection Report of the Nazir-ka-hât Sub -Registry Office in the District of Chittagong.
2. The movement of which Mr. Geddes speaks is doubtless very sug- gestive, and it is to be hoped will result in the increased prosperity of the actual cultivators . It serves also to explain the enormous amount of regis- tration which has taken place of late in this District, (upwards of 2,000 documents having been presented in November last, ) and would seem to indi- cate that the present average is not likely to be permanent .
Extract from the Report of the inspection of the Nazir - ka- hût Sub - Registrar's Office held by the Registrar onthe 6th January 1868 .
PARA. 7.-" I must now make a few remarks on the nature of the regis- tration business which is now going on in this District , especially here , as disclosed by the registration statistics . Of the 1,432 deeds registered here in November and December , only 204 related to bonds , marriage settlements , deeds of sale , & c . All the other deeds , 1,228 were leases newly granted . Again, of these 1,228 leases only six were for limited terms , namely , five leases for terms of one year or over , and one lease for a term of one year. The remainder of the leases , 1,222 in number , being 85 per cent. of the whole registration work, are perpetual leases . I believe thethe greater part of the documents at the other Sub - Registry Offices of this District are of the same nature. If that is so, the wholo District is in a ferment with registrations of an important character , which it will be interesting to watch . The other special Sub -Registrar has not called my attention to the circumstance. From the explanation given by Baboo Nilmony Dass , in answer to my enquiries , I am led to believe that the nature of the process is as follows .
As soon as each of the holders of the 32,000 odd Nowabad tenures of this District obtains a permanent settlement of his cultivated land under the famous Proclamation of Sir Cecil Beadon, he proceeds to conclude a similarly [ 96 ]
perpetual settlement with his subordinate tenants, getting, of course, a nuzzur or bonus as his consideration . As a general rule, the perpetual ryoti leares permit the under- tenant to sell, transfer , divide, or bequeath the tenure as freely or more freely than the superior tenant is permitted by his superior (Government ) to sell , transfer , divide or bequeath . The nearest approach to an English translation of the process , a translation, however representing only generally the principle , but not accurately defining the terms , would be as follows . As fast as Lord Dalhousie's promise and Sir Cecil Beadon's Proclamation, are being carried into effect , and are thereby creating new manorial rights, so fast are the tenants of these manors creating copy-hold sub- tenants with highly privileged tenures , and rents fixed in perpetuity . These privileged ryoti tenures would , I imagine , be as safe against enhance- ment or ejectment as the corresponding tenures which date from before the 22nd March 1793. Practically, of course, the Khood Kast Kadimi ryots of this generation will have this enormous advantage over their predecessors of 1793 , - that they have in the Registration Offices a prompt , reliable, and cheap machi- nery for incontestably proving their rights . If Baboo Nilmony Dass' answers to my enquiries are correct , the result is very significant . I confess I do not see the precise direction of the motives for these settlements . I shall , however , make further enquiries on this subject from all the Sub - Registrars.
8. A continuation of the above simile from the English history will also serve to illustrate a consideration of great importance which I wish to bring before the Registrar-General as bearing on the question of the future site to be selected for this Sub - Registration Office . The " Doomsday Book" on which hinge all the titles of all the superior or manorial and all the inferior or copy-hold tenants , is a series of survey records called Chittas in the Collec- torate Office, the result of Commissioner Ricketts' and other Officers' settle- ment operations between 1835 and 1848. The universal mode of specifying all cultivated lands is by the number of the dagh or plot of the Mouzawar Chitta or Village Field Book . These plots are as minute as the ryoti -holding sthem- selves were . Hence, for purposes of comparison and reference , it would seem to be a matter of public convenience to have the Registration and Collectorate Offices in this District as much as possible together in one place and under one and the same controller .
9. During my tour I have had a good deal of conversation with ryots and other casual visitors and travellers on the subject of registration . They grumble rather at the fees , thinking it to be one of the measures for raising revenue, but all are alive to the advantages of security afforded by the system . As a proof of this , I may mention that , of the 1,432 deeds registered in Novem- ber ard December, so many as 84 ( or 40 per cent . of the whole deeds , if the 1,222 perpetual leases be set aside as exceptional ) were registered by option , and not by statutory compulsion ."

LEGISLATIVE .
THE following Report of a Select Committee was presented to the Council of the Governor- General of India for the purpose of making Laws and Regulations on the 31st January 1868: -
REPORT .
We, the undersigned , the Members of the Select Committee of the Council of the Governor General of India for the purpose of making Laws and Regula-
From Under- Secretary to Government of Bombay, No. 3372 , dated 20th November 1867. omom Assistant Secretary to Government of Madras , Legislative Department , dated 21st
tions, to whom the Bill for repealing certain enactments which have ceased to be in force or have become unncessary was referred , have the honour to report that we have considered the Bill and the papers noted in the margin , and have examined the Schedule of enactments which the Bill proposes to repeal .
December 1867 . From Secretary, Board of Revenne, North- Western Provinces, No. 1250, dated 24th Decem
ber 1867. Note by Hon'ble Mr. Hobhouse, dated 28th Decertber 1867.
Two of these enactments, Acts No. XIX of 1858 , and No. XLI of 1858 , we have struck out of list, as we think they will be more fitly repealed by the measure for the consolidation of the stamp - laws , which will probably soon be introduced Fich Secretary, Board of Revenue, North Western Provinces, No. 15 , dated 9th January 1868.
Note by Hon'ble Mr. Hobhouse (undated ) res- the Acts proposed to be repealed.
We have also omitted Act No. XXIII of 1859 as being al . ready repealed by Act No. XXV of 1866 . We have omitted Act X 1844 as its repeal might, it is pection Assistant Secretary to Government of India, Public Works Department , No. 96E. , dated 21st January 1868 .
Note by Hon'ble A. G. Macpherson , dated 27th January 1868.
thought , give rise to questions vernment to abolish taxes a been annexed since the Act he power of the Local Go- ru districts which have We have also , at the desire of the Board of Revenue, North- Western Provinces, saved Sections 16 , 17, and 18 of Act IX
of 1859. As some of the persons mentioned in the Schedule to Act XVIII of 1848 are still alive , it seems undesirable to repeal that enactment .
Act XX of 1859 has not yet expired, and to repeal it might, we think, be premature .
It seems undesirable to repeal single Sections which merely repeal prior enactments . Such sec- tions sometimes serve to interpret the rest of the enactment to which they belong. We have therefore omitted Act VIII of 1856 , Section 1, and Act VI of 1868 , Section 2 .
We have added words saving Act XXIX of 1837 as to the power to prescribe the language and character to be used in revenue and judicial proceedings , and saving Act XXVIII of 1865 as to estates not completely wound up under its provisions .
2. We think that the following list of BengalB Regulations (for preparing which we are chiefle indebted to our late colleague, the Hon'ble Mr. Justice Hobhouse,) may safely be added to thy Schedule:-

1.--That all Warrant Officers of the Indian Army , who are compelled by sickness to take leave to Europe , shall be granted passages to England and back to India at the expense of Government, either in the troop slaps , if accommodation is available , or in sailing vossels.
If they be accompanied by their wives and families , they will be required to pay in the former cnge the messing rates laid down in the Royal Passage Warrant on their account If proceeding by sailing ship , they must make their own arrangements for their families . 7. The second rale proposed by your Government appears judicious , and I approve it accordingly.

That Warrant Officers taking furlough to Europe on private affairs shall be required to lodge the full amount of return passage money , or to give approved security for the payment of the amount , in the event of themselves , in which case a Government return passage willbe provided .
8. These arrangements may be published as an addı- tion to the draft General Order approved in my Despatch No. 372 , dated 9th December 1867, and will take effort from 1st January 1868 , applying to all such Warrant Officers as may now be on leave in this country .

LEGISLATIVE .
THE following Report of a Select Committee was presented to the Council of the Governor- General of India for the purpose of making Laws and Regulations on the 31st January 1868 :-
REPORT .
We the undersigned , the Members of the Select Committee of the Council of the Governor General of India for the purpose of making Laws and Regula- tions, to whom the Bill for repealing certain enactments which have ceased to be in force or have become unncessary was referred, have the honour to report that we have considered the Bill and the papers noted in the margin, and have examined Bombay, No. 3372, dated 20th November 1887. From Under -Secretary to Government of From Assistant Secretary to Government of Madras, Legislative Department , dated 21st December 1867. JessaberSoerotary , Board of Revenue, North WesternProvinces ,No. 1250 , dated 24th Decem-
Note by Hon'blé Mr. Hobhouse, dated 28th December 1867. ber1867.
the Schedule of enactments which the Bill proposes to repeal . Two of these enactments , Acts No. XIX of 1858, and No. XLI of 1858, we have struck out of list , as we think they will be more fitly repealed by the measure for the consolidation of the stamp- laws, which will probably soon be introduced.
From Secretary , Board of Revenue , North Western Provinces , No. 15, dated 9th January 1868. Note by Hon'ble Mr Hobhouse (undated) res- pecting the proposed be repealed.
Wehave also omitted Act No. XXIII of 1859 as being al- ready repealed by Act No. XXV of 1865 .
Perton Assistant berretary to Government of India, Public Works Department, No. 96E. , lade by Hon'ble A. G. Macpherson, dated 21st January 1866 . 27thJanusty 1808.
We have omitted Act XIX of 1844 as its repeal might , it is thought, give rise to questions as to the power of the LocalGo- vernment to abolish taxes upon trades in districts which have been annexed since the Act was passed. We have also , at the
desire of the Board of Revenue, North - Western Provinces , saved Sections 16, 17, and 18 of Act IX of 1859.
As some of the persons mentioned in the Scheduleto Act XVIII of 1848 are still alive , it seems undesirable to repeal that enactment .
Act XX of 1859 has not yet expired, and to repeal it might , we think, be premature .
It seems undesirable to repeal single Sections which merely repeal prior enactments . Such sec- tions sometimes serve to interpret the rest of the enactment to which they belong . We have therefore omitted Act VIII of 1856 , Section 1, and Act VI of 1863 , Section 2 .
We have added words saving Act XXIX of 1837 as to the power to prescribe the language and character to be used in revenue and judicial proceedings , and saving Act XXVIII of 1865 as to estates not completely wound up under its provisions .
2. We think that the following list of Bengal Regulations ( for preparing which we are chiefly indebted to our late colleague , the Hon'ble Mr. Justice Hobhouse , ) may safelybe added to the Schedule -

Nothing in this Act shall apply to the fees allowed to the sheriff, attor- THE following Bill was introduced into the Council of the Governor General of India for the purpose of making Laws and Regulations on the 21st February 1868, and was referred to a Select Committee with instructions to make their report thereon in a month :-
Saving of fees allowed to sheriff , &c . neys or any clerk or officer ofthe High Court , who shali be paid by fees instead of by a fixed salary, or to the fees , if any, which such sheriff, attorneys , clerk or officer shall be allowed to receive in addi- tion to any fixed salary .
No. 7 OF 1868 .
Procedure in case of differenon as to necessity of imposing a stamp.
A Bill to provide for the collection offees by means of Stamps in the High Courts at the Presidency Towns .
Preamble. WHEREAS it is expedient to amend the law re- lating to the collection of fees in the High Courts of Judicature at Fort William in Bengal, Madras and Bombay; It is hereby enacted as follows :-
8. If any difference arise between the officer whose duty it is to see that any starp is affixed under this Act and any suitor or attorney, as to the necessity of imposing a stamp or the amount thereof, the question shall be referred to the Taxing Officer , whose decision thereon shall be final , except when the question is , in his opinion , one of general im- portance , in which case he shall refer it to the final decision of the Chief Justice of the High Court .
Short title.
1. This Act may be called " The High Court Fees' Act, 1868."
9. Where a stamped instrument is amended in order merely to correct a Amendment of stamped mistake and to make it con- instrument form to the original inten- tion of the parties, it shall not be necessary to impose a fresh stamp .
Repeal of Act XX of of 1862 , 1862, sections 1, 8 and 4. 2. Sections one, three and four of Act No. XX of 1862, (to provide for the, levy of Fees and Stamp Duties in theHigh Court of Judica- ture at Fort William in Bengal ; and to suspend the operation of certain sections of Act VIII of 1859 in the said High Court) are hereby repealed .
Power to extend Act to Presidency Towns' Sinall Cause Courts . 10. The Local Government may by notifica- tion in the official Gazette extend the provisions of sec- tions three, four, five , six , eight and nine , mutatis mutandis , to the several Courts of Small Causes established in the towns of Calcutta, Madras and Bombay.
STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS . On the establishment of the High Courts of stamps. 3. All fees for the time being chargeable in theHigh Courts of Judica-Jud Fees to be collected by ture at Fort William in Bengal , Madras and Bom bay, and their several Offices , shall be collected by stamps from such date , in the said High Court of Judicature at Fort William , as the Governor General of India in Council shall notify in the Gazette of India , and from such date, in each of the said other High Courts , as the Local Govern ment shall notify in the local official Gazette.
Stamps to be impressed 4. All or any stamps to be used under this Act shall be impressed or adhesive as the Local Go- vernment may from time to time direct . or adhesive.
Judicature, it was enacted by Act XX of 1862 that Court fees and not stamp- duties should be chargeable in respect of proceedings in, and busi- ness comingbefore, the said Courts in the exercise of their ordinary original jurisdiction, and on appeal from their ordinary original civil jurisdic- tion. The system of collecting fees in money has been found practically inconvenient , as it involves much uncertainty and delay in their realization , and further entails the necessity of keeping com- plicated accounts and subjecting them to audit and examination .
It is believed that this inconvenience will be obviated by the substitution of stamps for pay- ments of fees in money ; and the present Bill , which is modelled on the statute 28 Vic. ,ic. , c. 45, is intended to effect this substitution . The pro- posed change has of late years been generally adopted in England, and is no less suited to the High Courts of this country .
5. The Local General Rules to be made by Local Govern- meut . Government , with the concur- rence of the Chief Justice of the High Court , may, from time to time , make rules for regulating the use of stamps under this Act, and particularly for prescribing the application thereof to documents from time to time in use, or required to be used , for the pur- poses of such stamps , and for insuring the proper cancellation of adhesive stamps , and keeping accounts of all stamps used in the High Court under this Act .
The stamp system , moreover , commends itself for adoption in those Courts , not merely as follows. ing the English practice, but as being in general harmony with that prevailing in all Courts of justice established beyond the precincts of the presidency towns.
Power is given to the Local Governments to extend the principal provisions of the Bill to the Presidency Courts of Small Causes .

6. No document Documents not properly stamped to bo invalid. which ought to bear a stamp under this Act shall be of any validity unless and until it is properly stamped ; but if any such document is through mistake or in- advertence , received, filed or used , without being properly stamped, a Judge of the Iligh Court may, if he thinks fit , order that the same be stamped as in such order may be directed, and on such document being stamped accordingly, the same and every proceeding relative thereto shall be as valid as if it had been properly stamped in the first instance ,

Report on the cultivation of Cinchona at Darjerling , during the month of November 1867 .
The work performed during the month consisted of hoeing and weeding the open air planta- tions, top dressing the nursery beds , and cutting jungle on the land selected for the extension of the open air plantations during the planting season of 1869. The repair of the roads and bridges of the plantations was commenced about the beginning of the month : 1,898 plants of C. Calisnya were added to the stock plants of that species : 77,100 plants of C. Succirubra , C. Officinalis, and C. Micrantha were planted in open air nursery beds . The increase by cuttings and seedlings during the month amounted to 52,120 , of which number 25,000 were seedlings , about 2 inches in height .
The weather during the month was dry and clear with cold still nights . Showers of rain occurred on 3 days , but only 0.65 of an inch of rain were recorded .

REPORT ON THE EPIZOOTIC DISEASES OF CATTLE IN LOWER BENGAL.
I.- Ilistory .
(1) XXVI .
The earliest notice which I have found of Epizootic Diseases among cattle in Lower Bengal is by H. Piddingten , Esquire, ( 1) whose communication is dated 13th July 1836. IHe calls the disease Bosonto ; surmises that it is a species of contagious dysentery ; states that his own cattle were attacked three or four times in the course of seven or eight years ; gives a slight sketch of the symptoms , and details a method of treatment which he recommends with confidence .
(2 ) XXVIII . 2.
He further states that in the Campaign of Ava this disease was so severe among the Commissariat cattle that it interfered with the advance of the Army . This removes the disease about twelve years back . Mr. Piddington talks of " the Bosonto which attacks the cattle of Bengal ," as of a well known and general disease . The next notice of cattle disease, on a large scale which I have been able to obtain, is of an epizootic in Ceylon in 1842. (2)
Thedisease in this case is not named ; but the notes of it are very interesting , and will be alluded to in the sequel .

districts of that Division . In the year 1853 cattle disease was very prevalent and fatal in Assam. (3) It has continuedto rage at intervals in the various
(4) Χ.
In 1861 an eruptive disease of an epizootic character affected the municipality cattle of Calcutta so severely that a Veterinary Surgeon was appointed to investigate its nature and treatment. (4)
In 1863 the attention of the Madras Government was called by Captain Nelson to a very general and fatal eruptive epizootic which had carried off hundreds of cattle .

(6) 11-1X.
The Government of Bengal was addressed on the subject, (5 ) and a Circular calling for information (No. 5331 , dated 20th November 1863) was addressed to all the Commissioners of the Divisions of Bengal . This Circular elicited a number of interesting and important reports .(6 )
These reports , which were published in a supplement to the Calculta Guzette of 12th March 1864, and included information from nearly every district in Bengal Proper, render it evident that cattle diseases of an epizootic character have periodically raged throughout the Province from a time bevond recollection. In the absence of any attention having been directed to the subject , or of any records , it is impossible now to fix the time of their origin or to trace their progress ; but there is every reason to believe that most, if not all, of them are of indigenous growth , and have existed as long as there have been cattle to be affected or conditions of climate and soil resembling the present conditions . †
(7) Χ.
In January 1864 an exhibition of cattle was held at Alipore, and there cattle disease of a virulent and fatal type broke out and raged for three months . This still further aroused the attention of Government, an't Dr. C. Palmer was appointed to draw up a special report on the subject. After making the necessary inquiries and investigations , Dr. Palmer presented his able and interesting report ( 7 ) in October 1865. This report was printed and circulated throughout Bengal with a Circular calling for further information ( No. 3468 of 16th July 1866 ) .
This elicited a second series of report (XII . XXV.) which contain much interesting matter; they conclusively show that in the various epizootics , which so extensively prevail throughont Bengal, we have a subject of intense interest demanding caretul and constant study; that the mortality which occurs among cattle yearly from this cause is a most
Dr. McPherson (XXXI . p . 14) alludes to an epizootic discase of cattle in the army in 1817 , and Mr. Gudgin , Veterinary Surgeon , ascertained in 1866, by careful enquiry, that cattle diseases have been prevalent in British Burnah for forty or sixty yours at intervals (XXXVI . p . 4. )
+ There is however , in the fact of the increase of the price of cattle in recent years mentionedby Mr Oliphant ( IX.) and others , a reason for thinking that the loss of cattle has been greater in late years than formerly , but that increase may depend upon other causes , and may be but an instance of the general rise of prices which have boen steadily advancing during the last 50 years in this country .
The impression, however, that cattle disenses have been more general, virulent, and fatal of Inte years is a very general oue . Mr. Gudgin, Veterinary Surgeon , in his report of cattle diseases in British Burmah , is decidedly of this opinion, which is based upon the tostimony of the natives . Thero can be no doubt of the fact of the increase of price and the groater attention which these diseases have of late attracted.

material consideration, bearing on the most intimate interests of the people; that methods of providing against the appearance of such epizootics , or cutting them short after they have appeared, or of treating the affected animals are very various and very inefficacious , and that among the natives themselves much superstition and apathy exist on this subject . In the following pages all the information which has been collected on the subject of cattle diseases will be presented in a methodical and digested form . I shall in order treat of-

bah . Of the post mortem appearances .
7th .Of the Pathology .
8th. Of the Diagnosis .
9th. Of the Prognosis and,
10th . Of the treatment , preventive and curative .
Under each of these heads I shall endeavor to indicate what points have been already pretty clearly made out , and what still remain for investigation .
Owing to the action of Government in the matter the attention of officers every where is now constantly directed to the subject , and out - breaks of disease among cattle are watched and reported on with nearly the same care us epidemics of disease among inen . Eventually a large mass of important facts willbe accumulated which will clear up points now doubtful : but it will greatly assist such a consummation if the facts already collected are presented in awell arranged and reasoned form .
11. Varieties and Names .
Owing to several causes , among them principally the want of any uniform veterinary nosology, the non -professional character of the reporters , the partial descriptions of symptoms , and the varieties of dialect in different districts , it is not an easy matter to determine what different names apply to the same disease in different districts , or in some cases what precise disease is meant and expressed by a particular name.
The varieties of diseases enumerated in the various reports , however, come under one of the following heads .
A. Epizootic Diseases .
1. Eruptive .
2. Not eruptive .
B. Non - Epizootic Diseases .
1. General .
2. Local .
It is to the diseases which are included under the former head that attention has hitherto been mainly directed . Those coming under the second head , though disguised under a variety of fanciful names , are well known , and their nature and treatment is definitely laid down in veterinary works . They are mostly local affections , produced by strictly local causes, connected with the immediate conditions of life of the animal and most of them amenable to simple modes of treatment .
A.-Of the epizootic class of diseases , those accompanied by an eruption occupy a more prominent position in the official papers than those without an eruption .
Of these diseases two varieties at least can be distinguished . They are perhaps different degrees of the same disease, but their severity and mortality are so distinct that for practical purposes it is well to separate them .
la . The first is the " foot and mouth disease" of English veterinary medicine . It is known in different districts by various names , most of them derived from khoor , a v1 . (2) XV.

hoof . It is called Khoorea ( Rajshahye) ( 1 ) Khoraha or Khang (Shahabad) ( 2 ) Zairkhara ( Tirhoot ) Khurpakka ( Buxar) Khoratie ( Darjeeling) ( 3 ) Khorsh ( Lohardugga ) (4) Lomsa (Midnapore) (5 ) Sob ka (Durrung) ( 6 ) and Khorahtile ( Jessore) . It is probable that besides the epizootic disease of the mouth and foot called eczema epizootica , any diseased conditon of the hout will be included under these terins . Cattle in
India frequently suffer from strictly local affections of the hoof caused by foreign bodies , wet, & c. , corresponding to the English " foul in the foot" which ought carefully to be

distinguished from the epizootic disease. b. By far the most important disease of this group is the more serious affection known by the various names of Gootee , Boshonto , Mata , chechack, (Bhaugulpore and Sarun) ( 7 ) Setala, Mardrishti ( Jessore ) (8 ) Vakrooni ( Jessore and Rajshahye) (9 ) and Murkhee (Dooars ) . ( 10) It isalso alluded to as " the Murrain " " Small - pox" " Cow pox, " and Dr. Palmer( 11 ) believes it to be the Eczema Epizootica of Veterinary Surgeons .
[ 123 ]
(1) Loccat . 22. Of the epizooties without any eruption the best known and most formidable is the disease most commonly known as Puschima . This disease is thought to be the same as the "Rinderpest " of Russia and Dr. Palmer ( 1)believes the " Calcutta

epizootic" to have been a manifestation of this plague . It is some- what difficult from the variety of names and imperfect descriptions to determine what terms are used to designate this disease in different Districts . The term Puschima is known throughout the Divisions of Nuddea and Burdwan. The words rog and nava are sometimes appended to the term. In the Patna Division the same disease appears to go under the name of Dukuha , ( Patna, ) (2) Hengaha ( Shahabad) and Waghah (Tirhoot ) . In Darjeeling this disease is called " Dosalin " or " the plague." (8) It is also known by the names of jor or jorun . Burra- pera (the great sickness ) Hurcena ( Gurbettah ) ( 4 ) Ilurna ( Bhaugul- pore: (5) (from a Bengalee word signifying mad or rabid, and pro- bably expressive of the uneasy manifestations of an animal laboring under severe disease, ) and in many places this disease from the similarity of its symptoms to those of Gootee is called by the same names .
. Another disease apparently of an epizootic character is ulcerated sore throat or Golahar( 6) which is not uncommon , and seems to be the same disease as " thrush" or " blain " . I observe that the disease has been very ( VI . and XVII . prevalent in some parts of Madras during the past season. *
c. Some reports and names seem to indicate that cattle are subject to malarious fever. Of this nature the " Peela rog and Badul- khor of Beerbhoom ( 7 ) and the Budla of Dinagepore (8) seom to be.
d. Cattle would also seem to be subject to Diarrhwa and Dysentery , as distinct affections and not merely symptoms or sequels of other diseases .
The information on these last heads is defective and the subject demands further investigation .
B. It is exceeding difficult from the fanciful and various names , probably suggested by some particular symptom or manifestation , to determine what particular non epizootic disease is expressed by any of the very numerous terms (not far from 100 ) used by Goallas . In order to arrive at any useful or definite result, it would be necessary for the same person to make a searching investigation into the matter throughout the different districts of the province.
(9) XVII .
(10) VI. (11) VI.
Some well marked diseases are however easily recognised . " Tympanitis " hoven" or " blown" is known by the terms Foolbagha ( 9 ) and Tepamina ( 10 ) . Rheumatism is expressed by " Rossbat" ( 11 ) Ring worn by " Daud" ( 11 ) Palsy by Battussia ( 11 ) . Consumption or rather tuberculous disease of the organs of the nutrition by Sookmina ( 11 ) .
More than these I have not been able to identify , and very much remains to be done in defining and reconciling the nosologies of different districts , which I suspect are very vague and various . In the succeeding remarks I shall confine myself entirely to the epizootic diseases .

This will best appear from the accompanying table which I have prepared from the reports submitted to Government from the various divisions of Bengal. It shews that epizootic diseases of cattle are universal throughout the Province. The " foot and mouth discas " is reported to be prevalent in the districts of Shahabad ( 12 ) , Tirhoot ( 13 ) , Rajshahye ( 14) , 24 - Perguunahs ( 15) , Jessore ( 16) , Cuttack ( 17 ) , Hazareebaugh ( 18) , Lohardugga ( 19 ) , and Midna- pore(20 ) . This list is probably far from representing the actual prevalence of this epizootic , but it sufficiently demonstrates how wide an arca it effects .
The disease usually known by the name of Gootee may be said to be universal throughout Bengal . It is prominently alluded to in every one of the reports under analysis .
The epizootic known by the name of Puschima is most decidedly spoken of, and described in the Districts of Nuddea, 24- Pergunnahs , Jessore , Burdwan, Hooghly, and Howrah , but under other names the disease appears to prevail in Patna, Sarun , Rajshahye , Rungpore, Bograh , Midnapore, Pooree, Nowgong , and Dajeeling .
I have assumed the term to apply to internal ulcerations of the throat , but it is possible that external ulcers are meant . Inthat case, as will appear in the sequel, an occasional condition in the disease called gootee hasboon constituted a separate disease.

The information about other forms of disease is so fragmentary and imperfect , that I shall not discuss them . The subject of the distribution of epizooties from year to year in the Presidency and its Divisions and Districts is well worthy of attention and renewed inquiry.
IV.-Mode of origin and spread of Epizootics .
The information on this head throws itself into the following well established propositions :-
1. During the season when epizootics are apt to prevail , or in places in whose neigh- bourbood epizootic diseases are prevailing , sporadic cases are prone to occur .
(1) Χ. p. 1 .
This is abundantly illustrated in the official Reports . ( 1 ) The cases which occur in this way are generally of a mild description .
XVII . pars , 7 . XIX. paras. 5 and 6 .
(2) XXIX. p. 292 .
2. In advance or anticipation of an epizootic sporadic cases are also observed. The best illustration of this is given in the history of the Assam epizootic. (2 ) Two months before the epi-
zootic actually appeared five cases were reported to have occurred on a farm. 3. When the epizootic actually breaks out , first one cow and then several are affected , till it spreads rapidly over the majority of the fold .
(3) X. р. 1 .
(4) XVIIL. 1 . (5) XXVIII.
This is the history of the Calcutta epizootic of 1864 , as given by Dr. Palmer (3 ) , of the Darjeeling epizootic of 1865 (4 ) , and of the Ceylon epizootic of 1842. (5 )
4. The cases which occur at the commencement of an epizootic are more virulent and fatal than those which take place towards the end .
(6 ) ΧΧΙΧ. X. p. 2.
This proposition is beyond dispute, and is illustrated by the Assam epizootie(6) and the Calcutta epizootic. ( 7 ) 5. Epizootics break out and prevail principally among herds of cattle This is insisted

onby Dr. Coates , ( 8) but is subject to the doubt arising from the fact that cattle are almost invariably herded in this country . Besides, the cases of several European gentlemen, ( 9 ) whose cattle were not herded in the strict meaning of the term and still suffered severely fiom prevailing epizootics , show that when the causes of the diseases are very rite, it may attack cattle under any circum- stances . Still there can be no doubt of the fact that , as crowds of men are more prove to be attacked by and succumb to epidemic influences ( 10 ) , so herds of cattle are more apt to be attached by and stuffer from epizootics. * 6. After the disappearance of an epizootic, sporadic cases of a mild kind are observed. ( 11)

(14) XIX . Para. 3. (15) XIX. Para. 6.
(16) II. VIII . 2 . XXIII . 4. (17) IV . VI .
7. Epizootics have a tendency to periodical return, and in the interval may prevail in a mild or mitigated form . The length of the interval is variously stated , every year, ( 12 ) every three or four years, (13 ) four or five years ( 14) and every ten or twelve years . ( 15) The prevalence of a mild form of disease in the intervals of severe attack is testified by some observers . ( 16) While the fact of periodical recurrence is admitted by many . ( 17 ) +
8. Epizooties when they break out generally rage for a definite period , and decline or disappear after the lapse of that time. Three months appears to be the average duration of epizooties in a particular place . The Calcutta epizootic of 1864 prevailed from January to April . (18) ( 18) Χ . p . 2 .
(19) XVI . (20) 1. 2.
A severe epizootic at Nassirnuggur, Tipperah , is stated to have lasted three or four months ( 19 ) , at Kurnool in Madras, the epizootic is said to have prevailed for three months . (20 )
In other cases , as in the Assam and Backergunge visitations , the disease was more pro- tracted .
The fact of its general prevalence for three months is interesting when compared with the division of the year into period of three months , which Dr. McPherson has found the most convenient and significant arrangement in discussing tho relation of cholera to seasons . (21 ) Besides the theory of the change of season, so altering the endemic influences of a locality as to render the specific influences of the fever poison inoperative, there is another probable explanation of the circumstance, namely, that three months is nearly the average time in which all animals susceptible of the epidemic influence are affected by it . (21 ) XXXI. , p . 6.
9. In a severe epizootic, while the great majority of cattle are susceptible of the influence and suffer from the disease, a certain proportion , small in proportion to the severity of the type of the disease , escape infection . ‡
" All the diseases are always more or less provalent rmong the great cattle herds of Palamow ." ( XXIII . 2.) + Mr. Gudgin , Voterinary Surgeon , in his report of Cattio Disease ( Precbima) in British Burmah , remarks . " In some This law also applies to localities as well as to cattle. places it makes its appearance year after year , in others at intervals of 8 , 5 , 10, and 18 years . XXXVI . , p. 4.

This is very strikingly illustrated by the immunity of two of the Reverend Mr. Higgs's cattle in Assam. ( 1 )

10. In some cases epizootics are preceded or succeeded by an epizootic invasion of a milder form of disease . Foot and mouth disease is reported to have preceded and succeeded " Guotee" in some instances. ( 2)
11. Occasionally the spread of the epizootic is observed to have a definite direction .

InAssam it spread eastward . ( 3) In Backergunge it is also said to have proceeded eastward( 1) * , while in the case of the Jessore epizootie of 1867 which I investigated personally it seemed to pursue a northerly course.( 5)

coincide with the origin 12. In many severe epizootics , the origin and spread of epizootics was observed to and spread of epidemics of fever and cholera among man . This was notably the case in Assam in 1853. ( 6) This simultaneous occurrence of epizootics and epidemics is a well known fact and is stated as one of the laws of epidemic influence by Dr. Aitken.(7)

Besides cattle, Lieutenant Gregory says other animals , tame and wild, have been involved in severe epizootics . that in Seebsaugor domestic animals alone were not attacked , as deer and other wild animals were found dead in the jungle with the same symptoms , ( 8 ) Dr. Coates says " that the disease ( Gooteo ) is contagious among cattle, cows, buffaloes , sheep , goats, and even horses have it" .( 9 ) Mr. Stevens adds pigs to the list . ( 10 ) It is said to attack horses and other animals in the North - West . ( 11 ) Dr. Jackson says that buffaloes, male and female, bulls , cows , bullocks , sheep, and (8) II.
goats are liable to the disease. ( 12 ) † I was informed that during the epizootio which prevailed in the South of Jessore in 1866, wild pigs , deer , and buffaloes were found dead in unusually great numbers in the jungle . Dr. Palmer, who does not believe in the communicability to horses , gives a very remarkable instance in which two horses apparently caught the diseaseby infection and died of an affection very similar to the Calcutta epizootic. ( 13 ) ‡ (13) Χ. , p. 4.
14. While there is a strong probability of epizootics spreading by other agencies than infection, there are many remarkable instances on record of its importation by diseased animals . This willbe more particularly discussed in the next Section . (14) II. 15. A locality in which an epizootie has recently prevailed does not sufler so severely when visited a second time .(14)
These laws of the mode of origin and spread of epizooties apply equally to epidemics of disease among men . This will appear from aaperusal of the excellent remarks of Dr. Aitken on the laws of endemic and epidemic influence , and the facts stated in the preceding paragraphs are familiar to the student of human medicine .
Accurate information upon the place and mode of origin of epizootics , the manner, direction, and rate of spread and generally on all the points summarized in the foregoing, is much wanted, and the exact relations of epizooties and epidemics have still to be worked out .
I shall here transcribe for the purposepose of reference and comparison Dr. Aitken's principal conclusion .
Specific disease poisons. The matter by which the specific miasmatic diseases are com- municated and propagated is solely derived from the body of the similarly diseased human or animal being; for there, during the course of the specific disease , is the soil in which the specific poison is bread to multiply and propagate its kind .
Endemic influences result from those condition or agencies peculiar to a locality which favor the development of various miasmatic diseases .
They become active through the following conditions , namely :- 1st.- The specific poisons are never totally in abeyance .
2nd. The germs of specific discases are always extant and develop under favorable conditions becoming epidemio influences .
Brd. These diseases are clraracterised by alternations of slumber and activity, prevalenco in one place, while neighbouring places are free and successive invasion of neighbouring places . 4th . The specific morbid poison , which is a constant element, is capable of transmission from place to place, alternately breaking out and becoming dorinant .
5th. In large towns the fever poisons are always present, in country places they only now and then occur . When disease is developed in the latter places the ratio of persons or animals attacked is greater .
In Satkeerah , 21 - Pergunnahs , it is also described as travelling eastward . (XX. )
+ Major Lamb , I eputy Commissioner of Purrung, remarks that large numbers of cows , swine, fowls , ducks, and pigeons have boon carried off this year (1867 ) . ( XXXV . 1 )
Dr. McPherson (XXXI . p . 10 ) alludes to a disease among fowl , which has sometimos prevailed simultaneously with Small- Pox in Lower Bengal , but often quito indepondently of it . Puis disense is still very commanon in the district of Jessore, it affects hens aaud turkeys and prevails most in the hot weather . I have no facts showing its relation to other epizootics . It is called Gooter , &c. , by the natives , [ 128 ]
6/h. In country places the dung heaps , & c. , are the principal media of diffusion .
7th . All the specific diseases multiply their kind after similar ineans of propagation.
8th . All of them establish a constant series of morbid changes and lesions, and always issue in the production of its own specific germ or miasma.
9th . Certain receptize conditions or a predisposition exist in individuals which appear essential to the development ofof the specific poisons andpoisons and the establishment of the disease, and an iminunity against a repetition, is generally conterred by one attack .
10th . Patrescent emanations seem to favor the development and spread of these diseases .
Laws of Epidemic influences .
1st .- Predispose to disease independently of any other cause.
Give increased energy to other causes, and give rise to new and anomalous forms of disease .
2nd.- Give rise to peculiar types of prevailing diseases .
Srd. Impress other diseases with their peculiarities.
4th . Their manifestations are preceded by modifications in the character of prevailing diseases .
5th . First effects most violent .
6th. Sometures disappear entirely after a short prevalence; sometimes continue with intermission , 2, 3 , 4 , or 5 years .
7th .-Different epidemic diseases are apt to alternate .
8th. The lower animals are also subject to epidemic influences . XXX. p . 218-223 .
V.-Causation .
On this head the information is necessarily somewhat speculative. The subject resolves itself into the two usual divisions of predispositing and exciting causes .
(1) ΙΙ.
(8) XXVIII .
1. Of the predisposing causes the most important is season . The more severe epizootics of which we have a record have occurred either during the cold weather or towards the close of it. The Assam epizootic of 1853 raged from January to June . (1 ) Lambert writing in June states that the Ceylon epizootic of 1842 had raged for many months . (2) Captain Nelson writing in July,
( 3) L 1 .
states that the Mudras epizootic had lasted three months .(3) The Darjeeling epizootic broke out in November (4 ) and again (4) XVIII . , 2.
(b) Χ. inApril , and subsequently in August and September. The Calcutta epizootic broke in April .(5) Januarynuary and continued till ( 6) XVI .
The Tipperah epizootic seems to ruary. (6) have broken out in Feb-
(7) XIIL L
The Backergunge epizootic broke out also in February (7) . Dr. Jackson writing from Balasore says :-" natives state that December , January, and the early part of February are the worst months during the year, (8) X1 , 1.
The virulence begins to decrease on or about the latter month (8) .
(9) XVII.
Other reports vary slightly . InHooghly it is said to appear every year in the beginning of the hot season .( 9)

InBhaugulpore it is said to attack cattle during the winter months. (10)

(16) XIV. Mr. Sawers says that " all admit that the disease is worst in April and May. (14) . This coincides with the result of my own observations . ( 15) In the Eastern Dooars Gootee is described as recurring every year in May, June, and July. (16) In Chumparun Gootee is said " to prevail in the rains but may remain a whole year in a herd . " ( 17 ) Mr. Stevens states that Gootee is prevalent from Cheyt to Assar (April to June) , and Khoraha from Assar to Bhado ( June to August) . (18) Dukuha in Patna is said generally to
(10) XV. (20) V1 .
break out in July and August . ( 19 ) In Maldah Gootee is said to commence in August and extend up toApril .(20)
(21) III .
(e) XXII .
(23) XVI ., 8 .
(26) 71 .
In Noakally cattle disease is said to prevail in September and October. ( 21 ) In Cuttack foot and mouth disease prevailed in July . (22) In the station of Comillah a severe epizootic raged in July and August . (23) In Assam cattle disease is said to break out inApril and May and September and October. (24) *
In April 1867, an epizontic of cattle disease broke out and lasted till the middle of August, XXXV. 3 . In British Burmah , according to Mr. Gudgin , Veterinary Surgeon , cattle disoase (Puschima) is most prevalent during the latter part of the dry and early part of the rainy season , XXXVI . p . 4 .
[ 129 ]
(1) XXX. , p . 6.
( 2) ΧΧΙΧ .
From the foregoing evidence it is clear that while the epizootics under consideration may occur in any mouth of the year, they are less frequent during the rains and more common during the dry months, and adopting Dr. Macpherson's division of the year there is reason to think that the same order of prevalence and severity obtains in regard to epi- zootics which he has indicated with respect to cholera, ( 1) namely, that thehot months ( March , April , and May ) produce most discase ; the cold months ( November , December , January,) come next ; the transition months (February, June and October, ) next ; and the wet months ( July , August , and September, ) produce least epizootic disease * . This is readily inferable from the record above given . As to the peculiarities of those seasons in which the disease was most virulent and fatal , I possess no data . The season preceding the Assam epizootic is stated to have been a dry one. (2) The extensive prevalence of an " epidemic " of fever seems to have in 1864 preceded or coincided with an unusual prevalence of epizootic cattle diseases in the Presidency Division . The cold weather of 1865-66 was marked by an early stoppage of rain, and a wiolent outbreak of fever and cholera in the District of Jessore, and cattle disease broke out violently to the south of the District and extended to Backergunge about the same time . On this head information is greatly wanting , and , now that attention is being directed to the subject, will doubtless , in future epizootics , be furnished.
2. As to the conditions of country and soil , which either produce or favor the spread of epizootic diseases , it is difficult to give an opinion . We have seen that cattle diseases are prevalent all over Bengal , and while there is a general similarity between the state of surface and soil of each district , there is also a considerable variation in particular features and conditions . The most virulent epizootic recorded is the Assam murrain of 1858. This prevailed principally on the banks of the Brahmapootra , in a dardamp jungly malarious tract . From a perusal of the various papers collected ,ted, it is also evident that the disease is more prevalent and severe in the Divisions of Nuddea, Burdwan, Chittagong, Cuttack , Assam , and Dacca, than in those of Patna, Bhaugulpore, Rajshahye , or Chota Nagpore , though the difference is probably not a great one and perhaps only apparent .
(3) ΧΧΙΧ ..
3. With respect to the food of cattle, Dr. Long lays considerable emphasis on bad food as a predisposing cause of the Assam plague : particularly coarse grass and old dry straw . (3) The Civil Surgeon of Maldah says:- "The disease prevails most when cattle are fed upon grass from lands which have been submerged and when freely fed in the month of August on fresh (6) VI.
(6) XV.
cut paddy straw. (4 ) † Mr. Terry in Midnapore writes :-" From long experience I find diseases among cattle begin when green food is scarce. " ( 5 ) Mr. Eyre , Deputy Collector of Sarun, also instances " insufficiency of nourishing green food during the cold and hot seasons" (6) as a cause of Epizootics . There can be little doubt that either an indigestible quality or an insufficient quantity of food as affecting the condition of the animal must be an important predisponent to disease. ‡
(7) ΧΧΙΧ.
(8) Х. , p . 8 .
(9) Х. , р. 5 .
4. The condition of the animal was considered by Dr. Long as having an important predisposing effect in favor of infection (7 ) Dr. Palmer remarks that in the Calcutta epizootic all kinds of cattle , well conditioned and strong as well as weak and lean, were attacked. (8) He is of opinion that the eczema epizootica selects the ill fed , over worked and weakened constitution . (9 ) The truth seems to be that in a virulent epizootic all conditions of cattle are liable to attack , while in a less virulent visitation the weakly first succumb . 5. As to the predisposing effect of age and sex there are no facts available, but these conditions have probably little or no influence in determining the course of the disease . 6. In regard to unsanitary conditions , overcrowding , damp , neglect of cloanliness , &c . There can be no doubt from analogy that these conditions must exert a baneful effect in favor of the spread and severity of the diseases under consideration . Dr. Long in his excellent report of the Assam epizootic insists strongly upon the predisposing influence of such conditions, and it is important to note that in this epizootic the cattle of the Revd . Mr. Higgs ,
With regard to individual diseases , Khorah would seem to be most prevalent during or after the rains , Gootee during the hot mouths , and Puschima during the cold months. † A very interesting observation confirmatory of this view has come under my notice : a gentleman in this district found that when his sheep were allowed to graze on grass which had been submerged by the unusually high inundation of this year ( 1867) they contracted and died of a disease exactly resembling Puschima . He lost thirteen sheep of this disease during the month of October . He then caused all his sheep to be house , fed and the disease disappeared .
Mr. Gulgin, Veterinary Surgeon , in a report on Cattle Discase in British Burinah , makes the important observation that cattle allowed to feed on the rank grass of the early rains after having been accustomed to the dry fare of the previous mouths are very apt to have " Black Quarter ," an inflammatory fever accompaniedby erysipelatous swelling of one or more limbs.- XXXVI. , p . 3 .
[ 130 ]
which were more favorably circumstanced in these respects, suffered from a milder form of disease than was prevalent in his neighbourhood . *( 1 )
(1) ΧΙΧ .
The Assam epizootic was a peculiarly malignant one, and the description given of their condition shows that the comfort and cleanliness of the animals were greatly neglected . An important fact is also mentioned by Dr. Long in the same paper . He says that either the Mesries nor their cattle suffered from the then prevailing diseases, and he attributes this to the care with which both men and cattle were housed and protected from the influences of damp and malaria. Mr. Lambert of Ceylon also attributes the immunity which his own cattle enjoyed for months from the disease which was prevailing in surrounding plantations to the " generous diet , absolute isolation and care bestowed upon his cattle."(2)
(2) XXV111 .
What the erciting causes of the various forms of epizootic disease under notice are, we have as yot no positive evidence, and the opinions entertained on the subject are rather infcrences from the stricttriet analogy which obtains betweenbetween epizootics and epidemics , and from a consideration of the circumstances of the mode of appearance and spread of the diseases themselves .
1. The most probable theory on this subject is that these diseases are caused by a specific poison. In what manner this poison was primarily generated , whether it was originally derived from the soil , or whether it is now capable of being developed under peculiar conditions of atmosphere and soil , are questions which we cannot in the prosent state of science answer . Under favoring meteorological and other conditionst this poison becomes active, and entering into the animal along with the air it breathes , the water it drinks , or the food it eats affects the blood and nervous system primarily and the tissues of the body secondarily , setting up a definite and characteristic specific train of symptoms , multiplying in the body and stimulating a morbid activity of the various outlets of the organisın , thereby causing eruptions and discharges by and along with which the poison tends to be eliminated from the body. These discharges are believed to contain the poison in abundance and to be capable in suitable circumstances of generating the disease in another animal . ‡
2. The spread of the discase must depend upo the condition of the poison, the sub- stances to which it may attach, or the agencies by whichwhi it may be removed from one locality to another . A gaseous poison will spread by simple diffusion through the atmosphere and will be wafted by the wind ; a liquid poison will attach to water or to solid substances ; a solid poison may be dried and wafted by the wind or adhere to articles of clothing , houses , straw, &c. , a parasitic infecting agent will be propagated by contact or by means of clothing , & c. Apoison which is generated undunder circumstances peculiar to a particular place is, with re- ference to human disease, endemic : when it is developed so intensely or abundantly as to spread over large tracts of country and affect masses of men , it is epidemic . These statements are at present generally held by Physicians, and might be abundantly illustrated. I have brought them forward in the foregoing terse form , because they apply as appropriately to and may be illustrated as aptly by the epizootic diseases as by the epidemic .ic . This will appear from a consideration of the " modes of origin and spread " of epizootics already dwelt on . We can also understand why the dry months are more favorable to the appearance and spread of these diseases than the wet , as already shown . ||
* The precise conditions of this kind which appear to affect animals in this country are-
1st.- Housing in low damp sheds where they are congregated in too great numbers , and this obtains more during and after the rains than at any other time of year . Cattle are carried away for the purposes of cultivation from the barce of the owner to bheels at some distance , and herded together in wretched sheds very slightly raised from the surrounding water . I have been some miserable examples of this in the Sunderbunds .
2nd. Over work. During the busy season cattle are not only over worked, but worked walking up to their hellies in water. Srd.-Neglect of rubbing down . This ought always to be done when the cow is wet froin perspiration or water . 4th.-Bad food and drink , hard old straw , coarse grass and bheel water .
5th . Working too long at a time in a hot sun without food.
+ These conditions are high temperature, moist soil , absence of rain, great evaporation, and generally states of atmosphere favoring putrefaction . That the diseases in question are capable of being generated in a locality of being manifosted in an endemic ( euzootic P ) or epizootic form is rendered highly probable by the observation of Major Lamb , who, in discussing the origin of au epizootic in Assam, ( 1867 ) observes that the disease made its appearanee simultaneously in several Mouzahs in the Darrung Mehal . ( XXXV . 1. )
There is another source if not of the development , at any rate, of the multiplication and intensifaction of certain poisons , particularly those of typhoid fover, cholera, and dysentery indicated by the observations and experiments of Simon Theirsch and Pettenkoffer, besides their development within the animal body, namely, that which takes place during the decomposition of accumulations of the evacuations of those diseases , under influences favoring putrifaction . XXXII . p 225 and 226 .
§ Mr. Herrold, (XVIII . , ) hints at the probability of flies being the means of conveying the infection from one animal to another. Not only is this highly probable, but the agency ofjackals , dogs, cows , vultures , kites , &c . , may be the incans of infecting pasturages and dispersing disease of an epizootic character . If , as there is every reason tobelieve , the poison of specific discuses in portablo, the possible agency of the lower animals in conveying it cannot be denied and may serve to spread even diseases peculiar to man . But in the case of carrion birds and animals, actually feeding on the corpse of a discased animal, the probability of conveyance to other animals is much stronger . This constitutes one strong argument in favor of burial .
|| The effect of rain in putting a stop to epidemics is a well recognized fact . MacPherson says " the two most important agents in diminishing the prevalence of cholera appear to be a heavy fall of rain and diminished range of temperature . " (XXXI . p. 7. ) In the October number of the Indian Medical Gazette for 1867, there is a remarkable illustration of an epidemio of cholena having been put a stop to by a heavy fall of rain.
[ 131 ]
There can be no doubt that the exciting causes of epizootics are constantly. present throughout Bengal , giving rise in healthy seasons to sporadic cases and mild visitations, and in unhealthy seasons, that is , under circumstances favoring their development , to wide spread and fatal disease . *

3. Without enlarging on these speculative points the practical and important point of infectiousness remains to be considered . The great majority of those who have reported on epizootics are agreed on this subject, and consider the diseases under discussion highly infec- tious. Such was the opinion of Dr. Long with reference to the Assam Epizootic : ( 1 ) of the Civil Surgeon of Maldah : ( 2 ) of Dr. Coates of Chumparun: (3) , of Dr. Barry : (4 ) , of Dr. Palmer : ( 5 ) , of Dr. Anderson : ( 6 ) , of Dr. Bensely of Backergungo : (7) of Mr. Sawers of Culna ( 8) and of numerous non - professional reporters .

Dr. Long reports an instance of a diseased cow having infected five others . ( 10 ) (Gootee. ) Dr. Palmer says that there is ample proof that many healthy cattle contracted the disease (Puschima) at the exhibition and carrying it to their homesteads infected others . ( 11 ) The Magistrate of Backergunge states . " The attack at Lahory was at first so mild that not more than two head of cattle perished in April. An inhabitant of the neighbouring village of Ghazeepore bought a cow apparently in good health at Lahore and took it home . Within a day or two of the purchase the animal sickoned and infected almost all the cattle in the neighbourhood , large numbers of which perished . " ( 12 ) † This is a most interesting and important observa- tion, and tends to show that there must have been something in the sanitary condition of Ghazeepore predisposing to a severer form of disease than at Lahory. In such an instance as this it would be highly important to determine accurately what the difference of condition was which in one case determined a mild and in the other a severe form of the same disease. There can be little doubt that a diseased animal is capable of infecting others not diseased, and under suitable circumstances of spreading the disease . The evidence adduced is at any rate strong enough in favor of the infectious nature of the disease for practical purposes , and the belief should be acted on as if it were a certainty . When on the subject of treatment , 1 shall notice several striking instances of precautions against infection having apparently warded off the disease from large numbers of cattle.
The question of endemic origin or importation differs from that of infectiousness . The former is still under dispute and uncertain, and the latter beyond reasonable doubt . Mr. Gudgin , Veterinary Surgeon , in his history of the Cattle Disease ( Puschima) of British Burmab ( 13) discusses the question:-was the disease imported ? or is it (13) XXXVI. p . 3 .
indigenous ? He inclines to the former opinion , and assigns the following reasons in support of his opinion : -
1st . There is every facility for importation of the disease into Burmah by the annual cattle trade between that and surrounding States .
2nd. The disease has been more prevalent of late years, and there is reason to think that communication between districts has become more general and easy.
(14) XXXII . , p . 218.
Srd . If the causes of disease were indigenous , depending on some bad condition of soil and atinosphere , these would affect the general health and condition of stock . He admits , however , that the poison has during the last few years been always present in the country, and when favored by suitable circumstances has given use to wide spread disease . This admission considerably weakens the force of the argument . Even with regard to human discases it is most difficultto speculate on the primary origin of specific disease poisons , as the whole sub- ject is so wrapped up in hypothesis . ( 14 ) These diseases must un- doubtedly have been due to causes external to man, on their very first appearance, and it is highly probable that such causes and the conditions of their development still exist , yet so involved and difficult is the subject that even when a disease , such as Cholera or Puschima, is proved to have sprung up in a district
at many independent centres at the same time, the advocates of the " importation theory can ascribe the phenomena to the arousing into activity of numerous dormant poison germs
by favoring physical conditions . As to cattle diseases data are wanting to determine the
The analogy between the laws affecting the provalence of cholera and the circumstances regulating the appearance and diffusion of epizootics is striking , and a perusal of Dr. Macpherson's work (Chapter I, III ) will reveal the close correspondence . Those circumstances aro statedby Veterinary Surgeon Gudgin to be " epidemic influence, " increased activity in the cattle trade, or when the healthy state of the herds of buffalos has been lowerod by drought, 'Innutritious or insufficient food or the digestive organs functionally dorangodby sudden access to luxuriant pusturuge. XXXVI . , p . 14.
+ The report of Mr. Gudgin , Veterinary Surgeon, on cattle disease in British Burmah , dotails several remarkable instancos of the disease (Puschima) having been introduced into villages by cattle brought from localities where the disease has been prevalent . Mr. Gudgin so makes the important remark that places where cattle are bought and sold, and when there is every facility for importation , suffer more from cattle discaso than isolated localities , XXXVL , p 4 [ 132 )
question , and for practical purposes it is safest and best to believe both hypothesis, namely , that epizootic diseases are sometimes due to endemic causes without importation , and sometimes to importation with favoring endemic conditions , as there are facts which favor both opinions and they are nat in any way opposed to or inconsistent with one another .
IV.- Symptoms .
In all the epizootic diseases under consideration, there are two classes of symptoms observable : -1st , general constitutional symptoms of a febrile kind merging into a typhoid condition and prostration in severe cases ; and 2nd, local symptoms of a more or less specific character.
(1) ХХХ. , p . 85 .
I.- The symptoms of Eczema Epizootica, " Foot and Mouth Disease" or Khorah , vary considerably in degree from a simple vesicular eruption upon the feet and mucous meinbrance of the mouth with little or no constitutional disease, and small mortality, to an eruption of a vesicular nature, covering a large extent of the surface of the body, accompanied with febrile and other constitutional symptoms of a severe kind , resulting in death in a great proportion of It is of importance to note this variation of symptoms , and it will generally bebe foundfo that the severity of individual cases depends upon the mild or severe nature of the epizootic. The period of incubation of this disease has been very definitely fixed by a series of experiments conducted by the Royal Veterinary College in London . The disease was produced in healthy cattle by feeding them with hay saturated with the saliva of diseased animals. The effects were developed in 36 hours ( 1 ) . cases.
These experiments are also interesting as demonstrating the contagious character of the affection, and showing that the discharges from the site of specific local disease are capable of conveying the infection.

The importance of this fact with reference to sanitary and preventive measures is great . A severe attack of this disease is usually ushered in by lever of a remittent type . ( 2) Whether this is preceded by any signs of consti- tutional disturbance , as lassitude , restlessness , disregard of food , &c . , does not appear. Shivering fits are described . ( 3 ) , Rumination is suspended;(4) the appetite is lost ; (5) and there is great thirst ; ( 6) the skin is rough , hot and dry, (7 ) the udder is hot and tender to the touch; (8) the eyes and mouth water . (9) In cows lactation is diminished ( 10) . The urine becomes high colored ( 11 ) and diarrhea of a dark green color and very fœtid is described. ( 12 )

How soon after the appearance of the constitutional distur- bance the specific local effects arise, I have no data to show. Sometimes the feet are mainly or exclusively affected, and some- times the mouth , and in bad cases the eruption is found on the udder, the organs of generation , and the spaces between the digits. ( 18 ) The eruption is purely vesicular, consisting of small blisters , containing a transparent fluid ; the tongue, roof of the mouth and lips are covered with these . The coronets of the feet become hot and swelled, and similar vesicles are found between the claws . When the feet are severely affected lameness invariably ensues . ( 14) When the disease is fatal death is caused by the severity of the constitutional derangement and occurs on the eighth or ninth day(15 ) . In most cases the general disturbance abates , the vesicles dry up and become crusts , the appetite returns , and the cow is well in fourteen or fifteen days .** The mortality of this disease varies with the type of the epizootic . It is put down by Mr. Stevens , on whose intelligent description 1 have drawn for much in the foregoing , ( 16) at 25 per cent . of cases . Of 42 of the cattle belonging to the Royal Artillery at Cuttack , 34 had recovered and the remainder were convalescent when the (17) ΧΧΙΙ . report was written. ( 17 ) In this onse the animals were carefully treated, and I am inclined to think that Mr. Stevens's proportion (18) XVIII., 1 .
is rather high . Mr. Herrold ( 18 ) says that if not well attended to 10 per cent . of the animals die.
The complications of the disease including the effects of want of proper care are :- 1st. Ulcers on the mouth and udder caused by breaking of the vesicles . ( 19 ) These are often troublesome and frequently those of the mouth occasion (19) XXX. , p . 87 . XXIII., 2 .
( 20) XXX. , p . 87. (21) XXIII. , 2.
death through inability to take suflicient food . 2nd.- Ulceration of the foot and disorganization of the horny material of the hoof(20) , sometimes the hoof falls off( 21 ) ; this event is generally the result of neglect of proper treatment .
(22) XVIII. ,1. XV.
3rd.- Development of maggots and consequent ulceration and inflammation . (22 ) This also results from neglect of the proper measures to prevent the attacks of flies and very often causes the death of the animal . It is of extreme importance to bear these complications and their mode of occurrence in mind, because it is from them that in most cases death occurs and they are as a rule preventable.
*" Curable in ten days, " Mr. Cockburn (VI . ) [ 133 ]
II.- I now proceed to the symptoms of the disease distinguished as Gootee or "Boshonto. " Iu Khorah the local manifestation coristitutos the most prominent symptom of the disease, and except in severe cases or epizootics the constitutional disturbance is 'of secondary concern . In this disease on the contrary the local manifestation is of small comtern , and the constitutional derangement most serious and severe . It is from the fatter, the natural sequence and duration of constitutional symptoms, that the disease derives its specific character , more than from the eruption , though the latter is when present also characteristic enough . A comparison of the various accounts given of different epizootic manifestations of this disease clearly shows that there is a very considerable variation in the severity of the symptoms and type of the disease that while in one case of epizootic the disease may be comparatively mild, and the mortality, though always great, not extreme , in another case of epizootic the type may be malignant and the mortality excessive. It will be also noted that in some epizootics of what was undoubtedly Gootee no cruption was observed in many cases , while the grouping and sequence of the symptoms leave no doubt that the disense was the same as that in which an eruption was observed . The character of any case in an epizootic must be considered in relation to the broad typical features of the disease as obtained from a generalized comparison of several well marked cases carefully examined , and I would strongly deprecate the tendency to remove individual cases of disease into another cate- gory, because a particular manifestation was absent or ill developed . It is also to be observed that the word pustule has been undoubtedly used in the description of this disease by unprofessional observers in a loose and general sense , and much obscurity and confusion is introduced into the subject from the apparent application of the term to denote any eruption, whether vesicle (a small pointed bleb or bladder containing transparent fluid) pustule (a small more or less circular or rounded bleb or bladder containing pus or yellow matter ) or crust (concreted lymph or pus embedded in a small ulcer) . This distinction ought care- fully to be borne in mind in future descriptions of epizootics . The disease under notice is undoubtedly the most wide spread aud fatal in Bengal, and I shall therefore go into its symptoms in detail. I am fortunate in having myself seen and examined carefully several cases of the disease, and in having descriptions of the disease written by several Medical Officers , Dr. Long of Assam, Dr. Coates of Chumparun, the Civil Surgeon of Maldah , Dr. Jackson of Balasore , Dr. Greene of Tipperah, and Dr. Bensley of Backergunge, and by several non -professional gentlemen of great intelligence . Having premised these general remarks , I shall first give the details of what I conceive to be a typical manifestation of the disease and then a description of the severer forms . As to the period of incubation of this form of disease, I have no facts from which to draw a reliable inference. It is probably short judging from the observation of the Magis . trate of Backergunge, already quoted ( 1 ) (p . 11.) The point might (1) XIII . , 1 .
be easily fixed by observing how soon after the introduction of a diseased animal into a healthy locality or herd the disease appeared , or experimentally by inoculating healthy animals with saliva or lymph, or giving them food saturated with the former .

The premonitory symptoms are stated by Dr. Long, (2) to be as follows:-The animal is observed to become listless and dull, to stand apart from the rest . The skin becomes dry and rough, and there is a short dry not frequent cough . The animal does not feed so heartily as usual , and in cows the quantity of milk is diminished † A careful observer will probably in all cases be able to observe these symptoms of impending disease , which are generally overlooked . Their importance with reference to treatment cannotbe over - rated .
After this condition has lasted two to four days , fever, either preceded by shivering ( 3) or not, sets in. The appearance of shiver- ing or fever marks the commencement of the second or febrile stage of the disease. It generally lasts two or three days (4) and its (3) XXV. (+) ΧΧΙΧ . VIII ., 2. XI . , 2 .

symptoms are- 1st .- Elevation of temperature ; this is best observed in the

It were desirable that the variations of temperature and pulse were noted in order to determine accurately the exact character of the fever . This could only be done by careful repeated observations of the same animal .
On the third or fourth day (reckoning from the commencement of second stage) the third or eruptive stage sets in.
The eruptive nisus affects the mucous membrane of the intestinal tract causing first diarrhea and then dysentery , and the skin of the body causing an eruption . The diarrhœa usually precedes the appearance of the eruption by a day . Dr. Long says
(3) ΧΧΙΧ .
(4) XVI., 2 .
(5) VIII . , 2 .
(6) XIII . , 1 .
(7) XXIX .
that it supervencs on the second day ; ( 3) Dr. Greene says the third day(4) Mr. Sawers the second or third day ; ( 5) and Dr. Bensley the third or fourth day . (6 ) The stools are described as " broken up , slimy, frequently fœtid" ( 7) "serous mucous and sometimes bloody") א ( "brownish, black , watery and very offensive" ; ( 9) " thin but foul in (8) ΧΙΙΙ . , 1 .
(9) XVI . , 2 .
smell, " " watery," &c. All observers agree in stating that dysentery succeeds to the diarrhea . Its period of appearance is not very well fixed , but the fifth day may be taken as an average .
The eruption makes its appearance on the fourth or fifth day. (10 ) It is essentially vesicular. Dr. Long calls it an " eruption of dry pustules " scabs (?) : Dr. Coates describes " papules succeeded by pustutes :" Dr. Jackson , " vesicles (10) VIII. , 2. XI ., 2 .
which subsequently maturate. " Dr. Greenel, " minute elevations beneath the skin : " Dr. Bensley , " pimples or scabs . " In the cases which I examined , I observed only scabs, consisting of small black or light yellow crusts set in small ulcers and surrounded by a ring of redness . The extent of the eruption and the size of the vesicles varies in different cases . Most commonly the udder , the stomach , the axillæ and lower part of the neck only are covered ; but in some cases the whole body breaks out . Dr. Coates states that the mouth , palate , and alimentary canal are attacked with pustules . Mr. Stevens says that it extends to the tongue and throat . The hair in the viomity of the vesicle loosens and may be wiped off. The extent to which the hair may be removed is a good index of the severity of the
(11) 1., 2. eruption than others . eruption . In some cases it is removable to such an extent that the skin is wholly denuded of pile , red and raw. ( 11 ) In some cases there is no eruption observed , and some epizootics are characterised by greater freedom from These appear to be more malignant than those in which a copious eruption appears . Some observers have remarked that cases in which the eruption is copions do better than those in which it is scanty or suppressed. ( 12 ) 'This (12) VI . xx.
accords with what I have myself been told by natives . I doubt much if any case which survives the fifth day will on careful inspection be found free of a cutaneous affection of some sort, and I suspect that small papules, pimples , or crusts giving a sense of roughness to some parts of skin, will be found in all such cases ; any case dying before the fourth day will of course show no eruption . During this stage the constitu- tional symptoms undergo a change . The fever intermits , assumes a typhoid type or yields to prostration. The pulse becomes small and weak retaining its rapidity . The temperature diminishes , and the extremities become cold . Refusal of food and suspension of rumination continue; thirst abates ; the eyes become redder and the discharge turbid or actually purulent . The nostril and mouth discharges are apt to become brownish and fœtid. Aphthous- looking ulcers are found sometimes on the lips and gums . The tougue becomes more swollen and dark. Prostration increases and the animal eventually lies down. Wasting sets in . The glands of the throat are observed to swell in severe cases , and in some cases the stomach . Flies attack the discharges and mucous oritices . Ulcers are prone to form and the animal is liable to die of exhaustion . When death ensues it does so at a period varying from five to ten days, and recovery is slow and in many cases imperfect .

The duration of the disease from the commencement of the first stage to the occurrence of death or a change for the better is put down by Dr. Long at twelve days, ( 1 ) by Mr. Hope ,' at five to ten days , ( 2 ) by Mr. Sawers at five to eight days , ( 3) by Lieutenant- Colonel Agnew at seven to fifteen days, (4) by the Deputy Magistrate of Behar , at a week to ten days , ( 5 ) Mr. Eyre of Surun, at five days , (6) by Mr. Stevens at eight or nine days, ( 7) by Dr. Greene at six or seven days , (8) by Dr. Jackson, at ten or twelve days .

The number of cattle lost from this disease throughout Bengal yearly is very great : the mortality in some accounts is put down as hundreds, in others ( 19 ) as thousands. ( 20 ) Particular epizootics have been extremely fatal . InAssam the loss of cattle is estimated at 1,20,000 , ( 21 ) in Backer- gunge, at 30 , or 40,000 , ( 22 ) in Tipperah , at 15,482, ( 23) and in one Sub -division of Jessore, at 12,000 . (24 ) TheThe rate of mortality is very high . The estimates vary somewhat, and are all more or loss speculative and perhaps exaggerated . Dr. Long estimates that 70 per cent . of the whole stock were attacked and 45 per cent . or 64-2 per cent . of those attacked , died (25 ) Dr. Jackson says that one- third to two- thirds of those attacked die. (26) In Tipperah the mortality was reckoned to be 90-5 per cent . ( 27)
(28) XVI . , 1 .
(29) XXV .
In the station of Commillah of 108 cattle 60 or 55 per cent . were attacked and 55 or 50-9 per cent . of the whole (91.5 of the attacked ) died . (28 ) My own inquiries lead me to conclude that about 90 per cent . of the cattle were seized , and that about 90 to 95 per cent . of those attacked died. (29) * These statements are vague and go no farther than to show that the mortality is very serious in all epizootics of this nature and more so in some than inothers .
In the severer manifestations of this disease, such as were observed by Dr. Long
inAssam, the following additional symptoms were noted :- 1st.-Earlier fætor of the breath and discharges .
2nd . Earlier and more severe swelling of the glands of the neck proceeding to suppura- tion and ulceration .
3rd . More violent fever at the commencement, and more rapid wasting and prostration .
4/h . Earlier cooling of the body and wasting .
5/h .-Dejections more fœtid and dysenteric.
The complications which are apt to occur in course of this disease are :-
1st.- Inflammation of the lungs. This I am inclined to think is rare. The symptoms of this event are frequent cough , accelerated breathing , quick pulse, evident pain in one or both sides, increased by pressure , a peculiar low grunt or loud moan and dulness percussion , a crackling soundbeing heard when the ear or stethoscope is applied. * on 2nd. Ulceration of the vesicles on the udder or mouth .
3rd. Confluence of those on the skin .
4th . Ulceration of the glands of the throat.
5th. Development of maggots in the ulcers or at the mucous orifices .
6th. The condition of " Fardol bound," or stuffing of the third stomach with dry food . This condition can hardly be recognized unless evident pain or distension of stomach with grunting lead to a suspicion that it exists . It should, however , be guarded against in every case by means to be afterwards detailed , because post mortem examination reveals its frequent occurrence , and the disease is of itself sufficient to kill the animal .
7th. Tympanitis or flatulent distension of the first stomach probably dependent in most cases on the preceding condition but occasionally perhaps caused otherwise . This condition cannot be mistaken , the belly becoming enormously swollen .
8th .-Erysipelatous inflammation of the connective tissue . This was more particularly observed in the mamalignant epizootic of Assam .
Mr. Stovens says that the proportion of deaths to seizures is 60 per cent . XV. , 1. † This indicates Pneumonia : a wheezing, whistling , or bubbling sound will indicate Bronchitis .
[ 136 ]
III .-Before going on to describe the non - eruptive epizooties , I shall here give for comparison a short detail of the symptoms of true cow- pox- vaccinia. This is all the more necessary, as the disease considered in the preceding section is frequently called cow-pox, simply because it is characterised by an eruption (pocks) affecting cattle.
In vaccinia the constitutional symptoms are slight or wanting , and the local symptoms or specific manifestations well marked and prominent. The latter constitute the essence of the disease.
(1 ) XXXI. , p . 273 .
After a period of incubation of from six to nine days ( 1 ) a faint blush may be observed upon the udder which is hot and tender. This continues for two to three days, and is succeeded by a patchy redness quickly followed by the appearance of raised papillæ or pimples. In three to five days these increase to the size of pea and become vesicles containing a transparent viscid fluid. These increase to the size of a horse bean , are depressed in the centre, and are round or oval in shape, measuring eight to ten lines in diameter. In two or three days they become yellow and are converted into pustules , which assume an acuminated form and contain a thick viscid yellowish material . A scab or crust ultimately forms . These are dark brown or black , solid , round , flat or uniform , and are embedded in a small pit with a raw surface and white central slough . They spontaneously separate on the twentieth or twenty - third day , leaving a shallow smooth , oval, or circular pit of a pale rose or whitish color , with some traces of induration around it .
(2) XXX . , p . 230 .
(3) XXXI . , p . 276 .
The constitutional symptoms are slight fever, dry muzzle , slightly accelerated breathing, fastidious appetite and diminution of the secretion of milk. These appear after the local symptoms manifest themselves and decline as they advance . (2) Cattle suffering from this disease are liable to a purely vesicular eruption over the body, which appears on the ninth or tenth day of the vaccine disease .(3)
"The vesicles within 24 hours contain a pellucid serous fluid raising the epidermis . On the following day they become turbid, the cuticle collapses or bursts , and a thin brittle, flimsy crust forms and speedily falls off ; successive crops continue to form and desiccate for three or four weeks ."
IV. The terrible epizootic known as Puschima, and which Dr. Palmer believes to be identical with rinderpest , is characterised by severe and malignant constitutional symptoms , the absence of any cutaneous eruption, and by specific lesions of the mucous and intestinal track with swelling of the adjacent glands . The disease may be divided into three stages , premonitory , febrile , and diarrhmic . In describing these I shall mainly follow the careful and exact observations of Mr. Rutherford , referring for confirmation to other records . The period of incubation appears to be short. In the Ceylon epizootic it is stated that a few days only elapsed after removing the cattle to a place where they were exposed to infection, when the first case appeared. (4)(4) Mr. Floyd removed a (4) XXVIII .
(5) Х. , p . 3 . (6) XVIII .
cow laboring under disease from the Alipore Exhibition to his farm. In a week another cow was taken ill . (5) Mr. Herrold states that a few days after the arrival of some new cattle at Darjeeling two of them took ill . (6 )
These data are very vague, but they point to the probability of a short period of incuba- tion. In this disease death may occur in a few hours after seizure. When the case goes through its regular stages sequence of symptoms , the following phenomena may be observed :-
(a. ) The premonitory stage is marked by dulness , disinclination for exertion , refusal of food, restlessness, neglect of calf, failing in milk, and other signs of discomfort and disorder . The duration of these symptoms is not noted, but it is probablybly shorter than in Gootee , and will , 1 think ,be found to be in a direct proportion to the severity of the subsequent disease . (6.) The febrile stage is in some cases ushered in by shivering. ( 7 ) This is followed by the appearance of fever of a remittent type .
(7) XXIV.
The symptoms of this stage are-
1st.-Elevation of temperature . This is best observed in the horns and ears which are hot with distinct pulsation of the arteries . The extremities are alternately hot and cold.
(8) ΧΙΧ.
2nd. The skin is hot and dry and occasionally clammy, and sweating is sometimes observed; the coat stares ( horripilatio) the ears also drop . (8) 3rd .- Pulse and breathing accelerated .
Mr. Gudgin, in his excellent account of this disease in Burmah ( XXXVI . , p . 10) , describes three stages, febrile , diarrhwic, and dysenteric ; but I considor any own division more natural and cannot assent to the propriety of splitting up the stage of morbid elimination into two . Indeed, four stages may be distinguished without that, viz. , 1, Incu- bation; 2, Premonitory ; 8, Febrile , and 4, Diarrhœic .
+ Mr. Gudgin , Voterinary Surgeon , in his report on Cattle Discase ( l'uschima) in British Burmah, has determined the period of incubation, with considerable accuracy, to be five or twelve days . This is proved by the number of days which elapsed in soveral cases between the arrival of cattle in a village and the breaking out of disease; five days in ono instance, six days in another, and five in a third . He surmises that the period of incubation depends upon the health and idiosyncrasy of the animal infected . XXXVI . 9 .
It is now positively known that the animal is capable of propagating the discaso during the stage of incubation .

drink; in this he is supported by Mr. Stevens ( 1 ) who says that the animal can't drink , also by the Magistrate of Bograh . (3) * 7th .- Eyes dull and expressive of pain ; conjunctive red and towards the inner canthus ecchymosed spots are sometimes seem . The eye becomes dulter and there is a discharge of tears .
8th .-Discharge from mouth and nostrils . The former is watery , gradually becoming mucopurulent . The discharge and air expired through the nostrils are foætid . A sticky saliva mixed with air dribbles from the mouth . The month is hot and breath very fœtid ; in some cases slight ulcerated spots are observed on the Schmeiderian membrane, which is of a deep red hue, small superficial irregularly edged and of a yellow tinge . In some cases also the mouth opposite the incisor teeth shows a tew sores .
9 / 4.-Muzzle dry, hot , and glazed , marked by two streams of watery discharge from the nostrils . Occasionally a few drops of moisture are exuded which do not coalesce .
10th . Cough is noticed in some instances . It is not constant nor characteristic.
11th . Tongue swollen and conted with mucus and saliva .
12th . Urine diminished in quantity, of a high color and strong smell.
18th . Posture and general appearance indicative of severe distress , the animal stands perfectly still or lies down and groans . (6)
(6) ΧΙΧ .
14th . In cows the secretion of milk is early diminished , becom- ing gradually less . It is of bad quality and of a darker color than usual . I have arranged the symptoms of this stage on the same plan as those of Gootée, in order to exhibit their great similarity, almost identity . This is all the more striking when we consider that each detail presents, not the observations of one man who might be prejudiced in favor of recognising such a similarity, but the independent observations of different men writing at different times of different epizootics in different places , and in each case these are quoted as nearly as possible in the words of the observers .
There is , however , one set of symptoms of great importance which have been noted in Puschima and not in Gootee . These are the spasmodic morem- n's . Mr. Rutherford describes catching of the flanks and frequent twitching of the muscles of the flank . Other observers are silent on this subject, but the phenomena are such as would probably escape the observation of non - professional observers . The bowels are natural or constipated (7) in this stage. The throat and fauces are inflamed , and the glands of the throat begin to swell . (8)

c. It is not clear from the several accounts of this disease how long the second stage lasts or when the third stage sets in . The period probably varies considerably. Judging from a case detailed by Mr. Greenhill (9 ) the period of duration appears to letwenty -four hours , and the purging sets in on the second day . Mr. Rutherford talks of its setting in early . ( 10 ) The discharges are described as (13) X. , p 8 . viil, 2.
" thin ejected with violence mixed with mucus and air and shortly with blood. " They are very fœtid , tenesums subsequently ensues , the amount of blood increases , the dejections become like dirty water and are discharged with violence. No skin eruption of any sort is described by any observer .
The other symptoms now undergo a change . The fever assumes a low typhoid form , the temperature falls, and the animal becomes cold . Remission of the fever takes place onco aday or once in two days .
The skin becomes cold and clammy and sometimes cold sweats break out. ‡
The pulse becomes quick and tremulous and breath short . The discharges from eyes , nose, and mouth , become more fœtid and purulent or sanious . Plies swarm round the muzzle and deposit their eggs within the lids, nostrils, or lips . The expression becomes duller . The swelling of the throat is more pronounced . Complications involving the stomach and lungs are apt to appear . Prostration , exhaustion , and wasting advance rapidly & The bowel discharges become dysenteric and more offensive, and in the majority of cases the animal succumbs in a day or
Mr. Gudgin, Veterinary Surgeon, in describing the cattle disease in British Burmah, states that " water slowly and with difficulty is partaken of to the end.

two after the commencement of this stage . The duration of this disease which presents a highly inportant contrast mith Gootee is given by Mr. Rutherford as an average of four days .

Although the absolute loss of cattle in Bengal is probably less from this form of disease than from (Gootee , the ratio of deaths to seizures is much greater.t Mr. Rutherford , computes the early mortality of the Caleutta Epizootic to have been 90 per cent . and the later 50 per cent. In individual instances the loss was ever greater . Mr. Floyd and Mr. Stalkart are saidto have lost all their cattle . ( 11 ) At Seebpore of 18 head of cattle 13 were attacked and all died . Mr. Stevens reckons the mortality at 60 or 70 per cent . of attacked . ( 12 ) Mr. Herrold in about 15 days had not one left of a herd of upwards of 40 head." ( 13) Dr. Palmer talks of the disease " making a clean sweep of any yard into which it entered" . (14 ) Dr. Anderson says that whole herds are carried off in a few days . ( 15 ) Mr. Deare states that " when it enters a homestead it clears the stall ." ( 16 ) The Magistrate of Bograh states the mortality to be 95 per cent . of attacked ( 17 ) and Mr. Gudgin v . s . , 85 per cent . ( 18. ) accord very closely and exhibit the terrible nature of the disease . Recovery when it occurs is tedious Mr. Gudgin , ( 19) Veterinary Surgeon , says that the disease passes off about the thirteenth or fourteenth day, and that restoration to perfect health takes place about 25 days subsequent to These statements
the termination of the attack .
The same authority makes a statement at page 16 that " animals that have had the disease are secure against future attacks. " The importance of this statement with reference to inoculation cannotbe over - rated and careful observations are required to verify it or otherwise .
The complications waich are prone to occur in the second stage are : -
1st.- Inflammation of the brouchiæ or lungs .
2nd-Tympanitis .
Srd . " Fardel bound ."
These present the same symptoms as in Gootee .

In this disease we may also describe three stages, a premonitory , febrile , and diarrhœic .
The period of incubation varies from 7 to 14 days :-
1. Premonitory stage. The principal symptoms are want of appetite, staring coat, rumination, and other signs of severe illness." diminution of milk , suspension of rumination, and other
2. The febrile stage is marked by :-
1st .-Elevation of temperature. This is variable and transitory. 2nd.- Skin hot in some places , especially between the legs, an exudation succeeded by cracks and sores take place . Hair staring .
3rd.- Pulse and respiration increased in rate.
4th - Total refusal of food.

8th . There is a discharge from the mouth and nostrils . Former hot, red , and inflamed, with often raw spots here and there . Breath fœtid.
10th. Cough is noticed in some instances . 11/4. The animal stands with back arched and legs gathered up under the body . If moved it staggers .
Mr. Gudgin, Votorinary Surgeon, states that the majority of animals affected die on the fifth or sixth day, and that rostoration to perfect health occurs in about thirty days .-(XXXVI ., p . 10.)
+In British Burmalı , according to Veterinary Surgeons Gudgin's interesting report, the loss of cattle from Puschima is most severe. In the space of one or two years from half to two third of the cattle of particular villages were swept away. hir.

14th . The secretion of milk is quickly arrested .
The spasmodic symptoms in this discase are very strongly marked from the commencement to the end : they are described as tremors of the muscles , and spasmodic twitchings of the voluntary muscles of the neck , shoulders and hind quarters . They pass off a few hours before death.
3. The preceding symptoms having lasted about 24 hours, diarrhea sets in followedby dysentery . The evacuations are said to be slimy , liquid of a dirty yellow color, occasionally tinged with blood and tenesmus is described . The general symptoms now change. The fever passes away, the animal becomes cold , the extremities and spinebeing paticularly so . The pulse disappears and breathing becomes short , quick , and painful. The discharges from nose and mouth become purulent, the feces more offensive . Prostration rapidly gains, the animal lies down, twitching stops, and death speedily ensues .
The duration of this disease is stated to be from 12 hours to 5 or 6 days, and rarely 8 or 9 : the percentage of deaths to seizures being 90 .
I append a tabular detail of the symptoms of Khorah , Gootee , Puschima , and Rinderpest for the purposes of comparison .
It is to be remarked that no mention is made of swelling of the throat in either account of the latter disease . It is also to be noted that this symptom is not described by Mr. Rutherford in the Calcutta Epizootic , nor by Mr. Lambert in the Ceylon disease , though almost all other accounts of Puschima distinctly allude to it .

VII.-Post mortem appearances ,
These are carefully and minutely detailed in the accompanying table , in which the appearances are noted almost in the words of the observers in a methodical form . From this record it will appear that there is a reinarkable similarity between the morbid appearances noted in Gootee , Puschima, and Rinderpest . I have not been able to find any account of the dissection of a fatal case of " Khorah. " The most important general inferences to be drawn from the table are-
lst. That the most characteristic and severe morbid lesions are confined to the mucous membrane of the alimentary canal .
2nd. That the respiratory mucous tract is affected in a less degree .
3rd. That the glands in relation to diseased surfaces are diseased .
4th . That the blood is altered in constitution .
5th . That the skin is affected only in Gootee .
6th . That the condition known as " Fardel bound" is frequently found in all these forms of disease, and
(1) XXXVI .
7th- That no appreciable lesion of the nervous centres is detected except in Rinderpest, in which an excess of fluid is described. Mr. Gudgin also found this appearance very uniformly in his post mortems in Burmah . ( 1 ) 8th. This gentlemanntleman has also described a specific lesion of the small intestines at the site of the solitary glands and peyers patche's. He describes " a yellowish exudation of the consistence of inspissated pus, and varying from one -eighth to two- eighths of an inch in thickness . On removing this deposit the tissue underneath showed points of ulceration with a margin of a bright red color." In the large intestine he also found patches of exudation and abrasion. The latter appearance I observed in Gootee, and in the small intestines I found the solitary glands enlarged and distended with secretion .
These appearances denote a similar but stronger eliminatory action in and near the glands of the intestines than what is observed in typhoid fever when the specific lesion is more a growth than an exudation .
The phenomena more resemble the morbid appearances in specific dysentery than in typhoid fever.
[ 143 ]
* we should call " Khorah. " In an epizootic of " Gootee" we may find cases without any cutaneous eruption and with the glandular enlargements characteristic of " Puschima," aud in the latter we may detect the typhoid or algide phenomena, the absence of glandular enlargements, and the presence of spasms . As we ascend this series , the prominence of the skin eruption disappears , the severity of the diarrheic phenomena increases . Glandular implications appear and then disappear, nervous phenomena become more marked and specific , putridity increases , the stages shorten, the type of fever degenerates , and the rate of mortality becomes greater.

(2) ΧΧΙΧ .
(3) ΧΙΙ .
There are also certain ępizootics linking together the various diseases . Epizootics which may be called by one or the other name. The best example of this is the Assam epizootic which stands half way between Gootee and Puschima . A susuperficial account of this epizootic induced Dr. Palmer to place it in the same category as the " Calcutta epizootie," ( 1 ) yet a perusal of Dr. Long's careful obser- vations will convince that it was Gootee.( 2) It is difficult to say whether the epizootic in the Cossyah Hills describedby Lieutenant- Colonel Hopkinson (3 ) was Khorah or Gootee , and in other instances mention is made of epizootics with an intermediate mortality or occasional eruptions.
(4) XXX. , p . 84.
(5) XXXI . , p . 267.
(6) XXXI . , p . 272 .
(7) X. , p . 7.
This view is further strengthenedby the history of excema epizootica and vaccinia in England . The epizootic of 1839 of the former disease was inore virulent and fatal than subsequent manifestations, (4) and the epizootics of 1745 and 1770 of the latter disease were so malignant and fatal as to attract the attention of Parliament, ( 5)Parliament, (5 ) though both diseases have recently been mild and comparatively harmless . Again a very important observation is recorded by Dr. Aitken , (6 ) as to ovine variola show- ing the unimportant nature of a cutaneous eruption as a pathognomonic feature . He says " the virulent form" of ovine variola " never produces pustules ." He describes the skin cracking in a zigzag manner , and in Rinderpest cracks and sores of the skin are also observed .( 7 )
A careful comparison of the symptoms and post mortem appearances of the diseases in question which have been summarized and stated without regard to any theory will be found to speak strongly in favor of this view , which appears to be the most reasonable and probable under the circumstances. Still as the degree of the symptoms is various and the mortality of the diseases so different , it is well that they should be kept apart, at any rate as different varieties : they resemble each other more than any one of them resembles any other disease of man or other animals, but at the same time they present differences which have been recognized by unprofessional and unskilled observers sufficient to justify their being described and still remaining apart as different diseases . Comparative Pathology. I shall now under this heading proceed to compare the salient points of these diseases with others , in order, if possible , to determine their position in a scheme of comparative nosology, a subject which which is as yet in its infancy .
Khorah and Cow -pox . These diseases differ in the specific site of the eruption, in the specific nature of the eruption , in duration of the stages , and in the changes to which the eruption on the skinis is subject . Even the general eruption on the skin is different in the time of its appearance and the sequence of its changes . The two diseases are evidently different speci different species of miasmatic epizootic diseases .
Gootee and Cow-por . The-The greater severity of of the constitutional symptoms of the former, the difference of the dates of appearance of the stages , the difference of the kind of eruption and its changes, the presence of diarrhea followed by dysentery in Gootee and its absence in cow -pox, and the distinct character of the general eruption of the latter, separate these two diseases , whose only resemblance is the existence of an eruption and the presence of constitutional disturbance of a somewhat similar nature . They come under the same order, but are evidently different genera of disease .
Dr. Aitken talks of spurious forms of cow - pox, whose nature (8) XXXI . , p . 271. he does not describe . (8)
Gootee and Small-por . These diseases present remarkable analogies . The general course of the disease, the duration of the stages and of the diseases itself ; the salivation , the discharge from the eyes , the occasional diarrhea , the sore throat , and the occasional involvement of the respiratory mucous tract present a group of striking resemblances .
On the other hand , the character of the eruption is different , the secondary fever is not described in Gootee , the latter disease is more " putrid " and the diarrhœa, which is succeeded by dysentery , more invariable . The diseases present strong analogies , but evidence is still lysentery, wanting to establish their identity. None of the reports hint at the infection of man by
The history of a recent epizootic in Assam strongly confirms this view. In this epizootic cases presenting all the phenomena of Puschima occurred . The symptoms of those are summarizedby Dr. İmthurn as " numerous watery evacuations, prostration, death . " Another describer of the sumo epizootic (Mr. Driberg) states that " in many cases an eruption called Bossunt breaks out on the body. " Ho also , under the name of soboku, allu des to what is evidently foot and mouth disease . From Major Lamb's letter there is some presumption that Puschima appeared at the commence- ment of the epizootic, and that subsoquently " it assumed a quite different form, " namely, Gooloe .

Gootee or the infection of animals by small -pox, nor even of the simultaneous prevalence of

these dis ases . Moreover, when cattle have been infected by human small -pox , the discase goes through the characteristic stages of cow -pox. (1 )
Puschima and Gootee and Plague.
(2) XXXIII . , p . 328.
(3) XXXII . , p. 371 .
Between the forms of Puschima and Gootee in which there is grandular enlargement and plague there are many analogies . The circunstances of country and climate in which these discases respectively flourish , are similar viz . , deltas ; low, crowded , badly ventilated dwellings ; amoist warm atmosphere , the action of putrescent animal and vegetable matters , and insuffi- cient and unwhole some food .12 ) The season of year in which they respectively flourish (Desember to June) is the same. (3) The sequence and duration of stages are very nearly alike . The glandular lesions are very similar, only that in man the inguinal glands are more prone to be enlarged : the type of the fever , the rapidity of spread , the mortality, the state of the blood are strongly analogous . In both there is a tendency to specific cutaneous lesions. Both mav kill without the manifestation of any local lesion ; both appear to be endemic diseases capable ofbecoming epidemice; both are considered highly infections , and in plague as well as Gootee and l'uschima, the characteristie secondary lesions may be suppressed, in other words , epidemics or epizootices which possess marked general similarities differ from each other in the kind and degree of local specific manifestations .
(4) XXXIII . , p . 329 .
There is an interesting observation by Dr. Milroy (4) to the effect that an epidemie of plagueplag in Bughazi was preceded for two or three years by a virulent epizootic among cattle.
There are important difereners also, namely, the more hæmorrhagic character of plague, the diarrhea and dysentery and Puschima and Gootee, which are not recorded of plague, the nature of the cutaneous lesion when it exists in plague most commonly carbuncular, and the enlargement of the heart , liver, and spleen observed in plague . It is, however , to be noted that Dr Long in Assam observed a very similar state of spleen to that recorded by writers on plugue . The diseases are evidently closely allied though they present specific differences .
Puschima and Gootee and acute Glanders .
The principal analogy between these diseases consists in the enlargement of the glands of the neck in cach and the discharge from the nostrils . They differ , however, materially in general course and symptoms , in the kind of cutaneous eruption and in the post mortem appearances . They are evidently different genera of disease, though both exemplifying the general miasmatic type .
Puschima and Cholera Morbus .
The comparison here is between the more sudden virulent and algide forms of Puschima without glandular enlargements ( such as occurred in Ceylon, Calcutta, and Darjeeling) , and cholera. The main points of resemblance are- 18%. The liability toto death following close on the first manifestation of symptoms .
2nd. The algide phenomena .
Srd. The profuse watery discharge .
4/h -The muscular spasms .
5th. The co - existence of the two forms of disease in one locality and-
6th. To a certain extent the state of the blood and post mortem appearances . 1st . The algide stage of cholera precedes the febrile , while in Puschina it is the reverse .
2nd. The discharges in cholera appear before or consentaneously with constitutional symptoms, while in Puschima constitutional symptoms precede the manifestation of any local action .
3rd . Vomiting is an essential feature of cholera not so of Puschima .
(5) XV:
4th- Tenesmus is absent in cholera , but is described invariably in Puschima, and- 5th.-Discharge of blood from the bowels is an invariable symptom of Puschima , if the case is developed and the animal live long enough, not so of cholera. These are important differences and militate gainst the opinion entertained and expressed Ly some that they are the samo disease manifested through different chanuels . ( 5 ) *
Puschima and Typhoid Fever .
The resemblances are-
lst. The character of the Fever .
2nd . The Diarrhea .
Srd . The post mortem lesions to a certain extent .
The differences are-
1st. The duration of the whole disease and its stages .
2nd. The skin eruption in typhoid and its absence in Puschima .
+ Mr. Cockburn under the name of " Bhail" describes a discase which appears to be identical with cholera.
[ 145 ]
3rd. The dysentery in Puschima while it is only spurious in typhoid.
4th . The specific intestinal lesion in typhoid involves primarily the solitary and agminated glands in a process of cell growth followedby ulceration . Other intestinal lesions are secondary and non essential , while the intestinal lesion in Puschima is a general disease of the whole mucous membrane, of which any glandular phenomena are only a part .
5th. The febrile phenomena in Puschima are more evanescent than in typhoid. These differences separate the diseases to a considerable distance .
Gootee and Distemper of Dogs .
These disenses present very many and striking resemblances . They are both infectious miasmatic diseases , presenting similar stages of very similar duration. In both the fever is of a typhous character . In both the alimentary mucous membrane is mainly affected and other mucous membranes secondarily , causing diarrhon succeededby dysentery. In both there is a skin disense , and individual symptoms such as water running from eyes and nose, cough , &c . , are remarkably alike. I have not been able to obtain very exnet description of distemper, but the analogies above noted derived from a study of " Stonehenge's" chapter on the subject ( 1 ) are interesting and suggest further ( 1) XXXIV . , p. 614.
stu.ly.
The foregoing sketches go to show that while the diseases under consideration possess many striking resemblances to others when particular symptoms are considered , they are essentially suigeneris , when a broad view of the whole detail and sequence of symptoms is taken and resemble each other more than they resemble any other disease or group of diseases .
IX.-Diagnosis.
From the minute description which has been given in Section VI. of the symptoms of Khorah , Gootce , and Puschima, there can be no difficulty in distinguishing them from each other and from other diseases . The eruptive nature of the disease, the description of eruption , and the sites which it selects , are sufficiently characteristic of Khorah to separate it from all other discases of the foot causing lameness . As, on account of its epizootic and infectious nature , it is of importance to determine its nature, the cleft of the foot and inside of the lip should always be examined , and if resicles are found in these sites there can be no doubt of what the disease is . As Khorah for the purposes of treatment must necessitate animals being laid up for some time and so involve considerable loss of work , it is of great importance to diagnose it correctly . If my surmise that the poison causing it is a milder manifestation of the same poison which causes Gootee and Puschima is well founded , then the importance of recognising this disease and using measures to check its progress becomes still more pressing.
Every case of sore, swelled or ulcerated foot, is not necessarily Khorah , and in diagnosing the disease from others , the manifest infectiousness, the eruptions and soreness of the mouth should be taken into consideration . Between severe cases of Khorah , with well marked constitu- tional symptoms and general eruption, and cases of Gootee, it willbe difficultto distinguish . Lameness, the comparative severity of theof the general symptoms and mortality, will perhaps define the disease, but for practical purposes an exact diagnosis of such cases is not of such importance. As there is a difficulty in diagnosing between individual cases of cases of Khorah and Gootee, so there will often be a difficulty in distinguishing in some cases whether they are instances of Gootee or Puschima. The distinction is to be drawn more from the general peculiarity of the particular epizootic than from the symptoms presented by any one case.
The main differences between the two disenses are-
1st . The presence of a skin eruption in Gootee and its absence in Puschima.
2nt - The lower type of fever, and greater tendency to prostration in Puschima than inGootce.
3rd. The earlier and more marked fætor of the discharges in Puschima than in Gootee. 4th . The shorter duration of the stages and of the whole disease and earlier appearance of diarrhwa in Pusuhima .
5th -The more frequent occurrence of glandular swellings in the neck in Puschima than in Gootee.
6/4.-Tho presence of spasmodic phenomena in puschima and their absence in Gootee ; and 7th . The higher mortality of Puschima than Gootee .
Between the severer form of Puschima as described by Mr. Rutherford and Rinderpest , there is very little difference , as will appear from a study of the table exhibiting their symptoms comparatively .
The spasmodic phenomena appear to be more severe and better marked in Rinderpest, and the febrile symptoms are of a lower type and more evanescent in that disease .
[ 146 ]
X.-Prognosis.
(1) XXII. XVIII ., 1 .
In Khorah , if proper care be taken and proper measures of treatment employed , the diagnosis is always good. ( 1 ) It is a mere local disease, requiring time and attention for its complete cure . If any of the complications already enumerated are allowed to appear, the case becomes more likely to prove fatal . If constitutional symptoms of any severity mark the epizootic, a certain proportion of deaths, not more than 25 per cent . , may be looked for .
In Gootee a large proportion of deaths must always be looked for . As to individual cases the symptoms which would lead to an unfavorable prognosis are :-
1st.- Low type of fever .
2nd .- Early prostration .
3rd.-Early fætor of discharges and early diarrhea .
4th .- Scanty or no eruption .
5th. When ulcers exist an unhealthy appearance of these .
6/h .-Prolonged aversion to food and violent thirst .
7th.- Tight shrivelled skin .
8th .- Scanty and very red urine .
9th.-Early recumbency.
10th . The occurrence of any complication .
In favorable cases the following presages may be noted-
lst .-Mild fever of asthenic type .
2nd. Relaxed skin and copious eruption .
3rd.- Cleardischarges from eyes, nose, and mouth , void of fœtor or with a slight smell .
4/h .- Bowels quiet.
5th.- Urine abundant and not of a very high color .
6th.Return of appetite, of rumination , and slight thirst .
7th.- Healthy ulcers if they exist .
8th.-Absence of complications . Of all these signs perhaps the most significant and that most usually noted is return of appetite and rumination .
In Puschima at the commencement of an epizootic , a mortality of at least 90 per cent . may be looked for , later it may diminish to 50 per cent . Each individual case should how- ever obtain the benefit of treatment, and by pursuing the plan which experience and analogy suggest as the most likely to do good , by watching the case carefully and taking advantage of every favorable opportunity , many cows which would otherwise die may be saved .
The unfavorable signs in this disease are, early cold , fætor , dysentery and recambency. The earlier these occur the worse the case must look.
On the other hand , if the heat of the extremities and spine is sustained, if the fætor is not great nor the discharges in an evident state of decomposition , if the diarrhœa does not come on till the third day and is not shortly followed up by dysentery, if the animal stands- is not compelled to lie down , then the case wears a more hopeful aspect . Severe spasms, especially if they have any regularity or system , may also be looked on as bad signs and their absence as good omens .
In Mr. Greenhill's cases , recorded by Dr. Palmer (2) picking a little food and an improve- ment in the state of the bowels were the earliest observed sigus of (2) X. pago 9 . recovery. The state and expression of the eyes and general ap- pearance of the animal will also serve as indications of the nature and prospects of the case.
XI. Treatment .
This subject may be considered under three heads-
1st. The avoidance of conditions which would render cattle more liable to be attacked by epizootics .
2nd. The means which ought to be pursued to prevent the spread of epizootics when they appear in a locality or nighbourhood .
3rd . The medicines and modes of medical treatment which should be applied in the several forms of disease under discussion .
1. In every epidemic and epizootic, it is the poor, the diseased, the filthy , and the over- crowded which most early and most surely succumb to the influence .
At all times , then, cattle ought to be kept up to the greatest standard of health and comfort possible under the circumstances . (a) The quality of the stock should be sustained and improved-
I-Avoiding breeding in and in, that is, allowing near relations to have sexual connection
and to propagate the kind . II.- Preventing too young bulls from covering .
111.- Obtaining bulls from a different locality and of a good stock .
IV.- Breeding should be adopted and encouraged as much as possible in preference to buying and selling, which greatly increases facilities for the spread of epizootic diseases .
[ 147 ]
early. (6.) Animals should not be set to work too soon, nor cows allowed to have calves too (c.) Great care should be taken not to overwork cattle . *
(d.) They should not be crowded in small confined barees , and these ought to be dry , clean, and well ventilated. † The situation of cattle sheds should be carefully selected to avoid damp and malaria .
Araised bamboo machan covered with straw ought to be provided in bheels and damp places, when cattle are removed from the baree to plough or assist in gathering in .
(6.) When they get wet with water or perspiration they should be rubbed dry.
( f. ) The food and drink mustbe carefully looked to .
(2) V1 .
(1) XXXVI. , p . 8 . Early rain grass , after the cattle have been used to dry food, is very injurious . Malarious pastures, coarse grasses, and old straw are very injurious, and the muddy water of bheels and foul tanks should never be given as drink. ( 1 ) . Green grass ( except at the beginning of the rains) when it can be obtained , short dry pasturage , and wholesome hay and rice straw should be given as food. The heart of the plantain tree or young plantain leaves chopped fine and small, boiled or broiled ; ( 2) gram and boossie , paddy or oil cake, if they can be afforded can also be given in small quantities as aids to other coarser fare. Good tank, river, or well water should be supplied for drink with the same regard to their quality as if they were intended for man .
2. When an epizootic threatens cattle should be especially looked after. The greatest care should be taken not to permit the access of a diseased animal or of an animal from a diseased neighborhood . The propriety of this caution is evident from the instances mentioned by the Magistrate of Backergunge already cited . Mr. Lambert writing of the Ceylon epizootic, says , " the immunity " from disease prevailing in the neighbourhood " enjoyed upon this estate was attributed to the nature of the food , to the absolute isolation in which the stock was (3) See also X. , p . 12,to the kept, and to the care bestowed upon them." ( 3) The feeding, housing, and general care of the animals should be more solicitously same effect . looked to than ever .
Cattle shouldbe carefully kept away from roads and routes frequentedby cattle travelling from one district to another .
Buying and selling should be suspended or prohibited, and if any cattle are bought , they should be kept away from the others for at least twenty days .
Intercourse of all kind with affected villages shouldbe as limited as possible, and if the disease come into the immediate neighbourhood, temporary hospitals should be constructed for sick cattle in out- of- the- way places . Inquiries should also be instituted as to the approach and direction of spread of the disease and means adopted to avoid it . (4 ) There is reason to (4) XXXVI . , p . 27.
believe that if one diseased animal frequent a pasturage, it becomes a source of infection, and this should be held in mind . (5) ΧΧΙΧ. 3. When the disease actually breaks out, the diseased animals should be separated from the healthy , and the latter removed to some locality where no disease exists , and if disease still appears , the process should be repeated until no more cases occur (5 ) . Mr. Caleb Ladd describes the measures which , at the suggestion of a Veterinary Surgeon, he adopted on the appearance of Puschima on his farm . He removed all the diseased animals , burnt all the old straw and manure about the cow house, all the straw in the house and the house itself. He then removed all the unattacked animals to a new house on the other side of his garden and the plague was stayed . Mr. Ladd remarks that if these precautions , namely, removing all the stock as soon as one is attacked, and if the diseases follows, removing to another place and burning the refuse of each place, were adopted in every instance, he thinks the disease : would (6) VIII. , para . 7. altogether disappear .(C)
Mr. Sawers says that the disease , Gootee, appeared among a herd of forty - six of his buffaloes, of which two were attacked . IHe remarks , " I immediately detached these two and removed the entire herd from the locality ; only one more (7) VIII. , 2. case occurred. " (7 ) §
And not to work them too long without food. Cattle are apt to injure themselves by surfeit when not fed at proper intervals.
+ The sheds should be cleaned daily. The floor should be of dry earth well pressed down ( XXXVI. , p. 2.), or still better, pucca, sloping on either sido in order to allow water or urino to drain away . Dry grass or straw should be given for a litter. This shouldbe chopped up and given with water. The addition of a little salt renders the mash more wholesome. § To these may be added two instances recorded by Veterinary Surgoon J. P. Gudgin in Burmah . In one village after suffering sovorely from the discase, the inhabitants sent the remaining cattle to a jungle seventeen miles away and the disease disappeared . In another case the plan adopted was that the sick were separated from the healthy, and the latter sent miles away into the jungles , Aftor doing this tho disense died out .
Another case is very interesting . " Swantay, no disease hero . In anticipation of being attacked they had sent heir buffaloes to a grazing ground beyond a range of hills, about tou miles off. " XXXVI . , page 8 .
[ 148 ]
With these instances of succest in suppert of the propriety of this measure, it should invariably be resorted to. In some places , indeed, it is invariably adopted (1) , and its importance cannot be over-

rated. Whonever therefore , when an epizootie is known to rage in the neighbourhood of a locality , any cow is noticed to look ill and be off its feed, it should be at once removed , and the rest of the herd sent elewhere. * The Civil Surgeon of Backergunge recommends cattle sheds to be well cleaned out and large smoking fires lighted daily for an hour or two (2) . I am convinced, however, the safest plan is to burn the whole concern (3) , and that in most cases involves very little loss . If the place is pucca then it should be carefully cleaned and fumigated in the manner described and not used again for three months at least . (4 ) I shall here transcribe Dr. Palmer's excellent sanitary directions . Ile writes , " prompt and complete separation of the healthy from the affected or suspected cattle is to be enforced. *** When it is practicable to remove the unaffected cattle , we believe this proceeding the more likely to be successful in cheeking the disease . Straw, dung , hay , trough and such like shouldbe removed , burnt , and disinfected; the stall in which the animal stood should not be used again , but thoroughly cleansed out and disinfected . * * * All animals dying shou'dbe buried without a moment's delay , not skinned, and no animals should be allowed to approach the burial ground until some time has elapsed since ***

the last interment . " (5) This last direction is of the utmost importance . When we consider that the animal body, diseased or dead, contains material suflicient , under favoring circumstances , to infect many others, the greatest possible care in neutralising and removing this source of disease is imperative . All traffic in hides should be carefully abstained trom .
Dr. Palmer recommends the use of McDougall's disinfecting powder , but in its absence quick lime may be employed , not as a mere cover for impurities, but as an agent that may destroy any organic residue which may have escaped careful cleansing .
The question of inoculation has still to be decided by experiment, though at present presumptions are rather against than for it .
As the diseases are quite different from cow- pox , notwithstanding Professor Symond's opinion, as to their ariolons nature, vaccination would, in Gootee and Puschima, in all probability, be perfectly useless . This has been determined in England by experiment .
The only question is whether, if the cattle of this country generally were inoculated with the contents of the vesicles of Gootee or the salivary discharge, tears , or serum of the blood of Puschima , a saving of stock wouldbe effected on the whole . Two indisputable facts are in favor of this measure .
let. That an inoculable disease poison when admitted into the body through the skin does not produce such a severe sequence of symptoms as when absorbed by mucous membranes . 2nd . That a modified form of disenso can be obtainedby successive inocculations from animal to animal .
This has been extensively demonstrated by experiment, and the experience of vaccination from man to man confirms the truth of the stateinent. (6) (6) XXXIII. , p . 506.
The subject is now under investigation and experiment in Europe.
Inoculation has been practiced on a large scale with the Rinderpest poison in the Steppes of Russia " its home," with the result that only a trifling percentage of cases have died, and
the animals subjected to the process though exposed to every source of infection have not again contracted the disease .
(7) XXXVI . , p . 10.
Beyond the Steppes results have not been so favorable, and it has been found necessary to subject 13 to 15 animals to inoculations successively ere the virulence of the poison was sufficiently reduced, and the rate of mortality brought down to a small percentage , ( 7 ) in other words , in the technical language of inoenlutore, " in other races of cattle the virus must pass through 13 to 15 generations before inoculatory matter that produces a mild form of discase is obtained."
man . If the operation is to be tried in this country the following precautions are indispensable :- 1. The proceedings must be under the control and strict supervision of a professional
2. They ought to be conducted apart from where healthy cattle might be infected. 3. The virus nust be primarily obtained from a mild case of the disease , Gooteo or Puserima
becoine mi d . 4. A sufficient number of animals must be successively inoculated until the symptoms
5. When the requisite degree of modification has been reached, cautious trials shouldbe made at first on a limited scale .
A yard's separation as in some casos in Burmah is not enough. The soparation must be measured by miles, and it is well to split largo herds up into smaller sections. (XXXVL , p . 6 [ 149 ]
6. Goats and sheep should also be subjected to inconlation , with hope that mitigation of the virulence of the poison may be more rapidly and completely accomplished by that means .
These proceedings cannot obviously be left to private zeal or interest . To carry them out thoroughly and properly , demands an expenditure and resources which ne private individual can command.
The losses occasioned yearly by cattle diseases have become a matter of imperial solicitude and interest. A successtul solution of the propriety and power of inoculation can onlybe accomplished by direct imperial action .
The end to be attained is at the cost of a trifling mortality of one or two per cent . to protect all the cattle of the country, against a discase that carries off 80 to 90 per cent . wherever it appears . Evidence from many quarters tends to show that virulent epizooLio visitations are becoming more and more frequent, and that often agriculture, which is the very life of the country, is paralysed by these outbreaks .
The time has come when the matter must be looked full in the face . I am convinced that mere written directions are as anavailing inin this matter as in the matter of human vaccina- tion, and that a comparison of the cost of yearly losses by cattle disease and the cost of a well devised set of experiments to test the question of the practicability and protective power of inoculation , and perhaps eventually of machinery to apply , throughout the country this protective power, will show a balance in favor of the latter. The subject is a highly important one in many respects , and appears to be graduaily forcing itself more and more into such a position that something must be done .
In dismissing this subject , I would enter a strong caution against the fancied resemblance between Gootee and Cow -pox inducing any one to attempt inoculating man with the matter of the Gootee vesicle , a proceeding which had caused the death of the individual experimented on .

(a.) Khorah . In mild cases the treatment is almost purely local . The simplest treat- ment recommended and employed for this disease is keeping the ar the animal standing for several days in soft mud . (1 ) This is said to be a very efficacious mode of treatment, and is that generally employed by the natives. It has the advantage of effectually warding off flies , the source of one of the worst and most fatal complications and so tends to limit the mortality. If this method is employed it must be carried out care-

Complications require special treatment .
1. Ulcers on the mouth or udder are to be treated with the alun lotion already given or sprinkled over with desiccated ulum (alum pulverised by heat which drives off some of the water in combination with it ) . This is best done by holding it over a flame in a spoon or similar receptacle .
2. Ulceration of the foot and destruction of the horny matter is best treated by scrupulous cleanliness , paring off shreds of horn, poulticing and the application of the sulphate of copper in substance , if the ulcer is foul and lungating , or in luiment according to the formula already noted. If the ulcer is deep and unhealthy looking , strong nitric acid should be applied with lint, tollowed by poultice, and lotion of sulphate of zinc (3 grains [ 150 ]
ii . iv . to 1 to the ounce) or sulphate of copper (10 grains to the ounce) : neem or indigo water may be used in this stage . To ulcers of the mouth a lotion of nitrate of silver (grains ii. ounce) is a good application .
3. The development of maggots is better prevented by the use of the means already indicated than cured. If theydo appear they should be carefully extracted. Yellow wash (corrosive sublimate grains 4 to 1 ounce of lime water) should be applied till the ulcer become healthy , and then some of the weaker astringent lotions . Scrupulous cleanliness and the careful protection of the ulcerated surfaces by cloths and bandages are necessary . Corrosive sublimate may be applied as a powder well diluted with flower or chalk . Diet in this disease should be simple and nutritious .
8. Gootee . In treating this disease general remedies are of primary importance and Mocal remedies secondary , the latter will be very much the same as those indicated under Khorah according to the symptoms presented . When I add that sponging the surface over frequently with warm water, or warm vinegar and water during the second stage, will materially assist the development of the eruption and the cure of the disease. I have said Il that is necessary on this head .
( 1 ) XXVI .
Two special modes of treatment which have been confidently recommended in this disease first demand attention . The earliest is that of Mr. Pidding- ton, (1) who recommends separating the dull cattle from the healthy on the appearance of an epizootic , and subjecting both separately to the vapor of muriatic eid . He describes the process thus : -" In a stable containing 30 or 40 head of cattle , a plate full of warm salt is placed upon a few hot embers in an earthenware dish . Over this is poured about an ounce of concentrated sulphuric acid . A thick white smoke , which is highly pungent and suffocating , instantly arises , and the operator must carefully avoid breathing this, for it may occasion spitting of blood or even disease of the lungs . He should quit the stable immediately , shutting the door close. The windows , &c. , must have been closed beforehand, the cattle will take refuge at the end of the stable and much coughing willbe heard amongst them. The stable may be kept closed for 8 or 10 minutes or even more if there is not much conghing heard . This process is repeated in the evening and so on for three or four successive days.
This measure , he asserts , has constantly stopped the disease among his cattle . It is simple, inexpensive, and should certainly be put in practice when a suitable place can be found. The other special method of treatment is that recommended by Captain Chambers , (2) V1I . , 7 . Assistant Commissary General at Dinapore , ( 2) who states that according to his experience the black salt (karee neemuck or lobun) of the bazaar is an " infallible specific in this disease. " The dose to be employed is one ounce (half chittack ) twice a day in cases of the disease , and when the disease breaks out in a flock, he advises to an ounce to be given daily to all the cattle as a preventive. He says that when fairly tried he has never found this remedy fail , and adduces a striking instance communicated to him by a planter who had lost forty bullocks of a herd of eighty , and after commencing to employ the karee neemuck did not lose another animal . He also states the addition of turtar emetic (sixty grains to one ounce of karee neemuck) improves its action. This mode of treatment should certainly be tried and its efficacy put rigidly to the test of experiment . The foregoing methods are probably equally applicable in GooteeGootee and Puschima, and may be tried in both . It is not clear from the papers referred to in what form of disease they were found useful, and it still remains to determine their exact value and place . There is an almost utter want of experience on this subject, and any plan offering a fair chance of success should be put in practice without hesitation, either until it is found wanting or another
better method suggested or demonstrated . The treatment which has been recommended most commonly, perhaps on the ground of analogy and probability, is the following:-
(a.) Saline purges in the first stage .
(6. ) Saline diaphoretics and diuretics in the second stage . (c
.) Astringents, tonics , carminatives , and stimulants in the third stage . (d.) Easily digested and nutritious food throughout the disease .
(a. ) As a saline purge the formula already given under Khorah may be used , or common to the amount of 1 lb. to 2 lbs . may be given , or still better
8 ounces .

Sulphur

Water , beer, gruel, or rice water, 1 quart to make a drench .
Saline purgatives are principally used in order to produce a copious and complete evacua- on . This in the early stages of the disease may clear away the poison , or render the body , by having its excretory channels stimulated, more capable of voiding the morbid material from the circulation . There is reason to believe, however, that saline purgatives act principally on the lower bowels , and if there is any cause for suspecting that the first or third stomachs are

Mr. Grote , the President of the Agricultural and Horticultural Society, writes :-The result of my observations this year was to expect recovery if the patient could be supported with liquid food during the crisis of this disense " Gootee. " ( 1) (1) XIII .
The complications of the disease are treated on general principles , always keeping in mind the serious and depressing nature of the main disease , and dealing more largely in stimulants than in the simple disease .
1st . There is always more or less bronchitis which , according as it is limited to the windpipe or extends into its sub - divisions , is a less or more severe event. The most important remedial agent is counter- irritation or vesication along the windpipe; this can be best produced by one of the following : -
Oil of turpentine
Liquor ammonia
Equal parts .
Oliveoil
=}
To be rubbed in along the course of the trachea .
Croton seeds
1 oance.
12 ounces .
Oil of turpentine
(2) XXX . p . 9 .
Steep for a fortnight and then pour off the clear liquor . It can be used similarly to the last dose, or diluted with half the quantity of olive oil . ( 2) If the inflammation extend to the lungs , those applications should be rubbed freely over the chest .
At the same time the following may be given-
Sweet spirits of nitre
4 ounces .
2 drachms .
Powered opium
1drachm .
Powder of ipecacuanha
one ounce to be given for a dose twice a day in warm gruel .
If the lung disease assume the form of Pneumonia then counter -irritation over the site of pain and abnormal physical signs should be decidedly employed . The best agent for that purpose is the last of the two formulæ above given, with a proportion of 1 part of croton seeds to 8 of turpentine instead of 1 to 12 .
2. Ulcers willbe treated on the same principles as in Khorah . Serupulous cleanliness , exclusion of flies , and if they present symptoms of weakness or delayed healing , solution of sulphate of zinc, sulphate of copper, & c. , are the main points .
3. The state of " Fardel bound" is best met by the judicious employment of purgatives at the commencement of the disease. If it is indicated later in the disease , the purgative, and especially an oily one , administered as directed should be repeated .
4. Tympanitis is treated, if slight, by an oily purge, linseed or castor oil , followed by strong carminatives , such as carraway, assafœtida , ginger, &c . , with opium or brang and ammonia. A good remedy is of a pound of mustard given in a quart of warm water .
If the case is severe, tapping the stomach or the introduction of a tube into it by mouth should be at once resorted to .
During convalescence, particular care should be given to the diet, which must be nutritions and digestible, at the same time a surfeit mustbe carefully guarded against .
Tonics as sulphate of iron (2 to 4 drachms) and gentian or cherretta should be given occasionally.
Puschima. After having gone into such detail into the treatment of Gootee, little remains to be added as to the treatment of Puschima , which must be based on the same system. The more depressing nature and rapid course of the disease should be borne in mind, and nutrients and stimulants are more clearly indicated . These with counter - irritants to the right side, chest , throat, and spine constitute the essence of the treatment.
6 ounces Oil of turpentine
Croton oil
1 1
Liquor of ammonia
is a quick and effective counter- irritant .
If the throat symptoms are severe , counter - irritation should be especially applied ali round the larynx, and a solution of nitrate of silver ( 1 scruple to an ounce) should be applied to the root of the tongue and fauces .
[ 153 ]
In the third stage camphor should be used largely with a small addition of opium assafoetida, and capsicum .
Chlorate of potash and common salt might be dissolved in the drenches given for food as antiseptics .
In this as in the last disease the great object of all treatment mustbe-
First, to support the animal's strength in order to enable it to pass through the inevitable which may stages of the disease ; and secondly, to meet special symptoms or complications wh threaten to cut life short during its progress .
NOTE .
SINCE completing the above , I have been fortunate enough to obtain the elaborate and excellent Report of the Royal Commission appointed to investigate the cattle plague in England . I might with advantage introduce many of the interesting observations on this disease made by such men as Drs. Sanderson, Murchison, Marcet , Beale, & c . , at the instance of the commission, into the text ; but I think it better to let it stand as an independent record of the disease, as observed in India, drawn entirely from Indian source of inforination. At the same time it will be valuable for purposes of comparison to cite shortly , under the principal heads , some of the conclusions arrived at by the painstaking inquiry of the commission.
Symptoms and pathology of the disease. Under this head I shall give Dr. Murchison's summary .
" 1. The cattle plague now ( 2nd January 1866) prevalent in Britain is the same disease as the rinderpest of German writers .
2. The chief symptoms of the disease are , fever with general depression , an aphthous condition of the interior of the mouth and nostrils, an eruption composed of roseolar patches scabs, and sometimes pustules and petechice on the skin , ruuning from the eyes , nostrils and mouth, suppression of milk , constipation followed by diarrhea , albuminuria and hæmaturia (bloody urine) , and the ultimate development of a condition similar to the " typhoid state" of human maladies .
3. The chief morbid conditions found after death are the eruptions on the skin , and in the interior of the mouth catarrhal or croupal inflammation, and even gangrene, of the mucous membranes , ecchymoses , an unusually dark colour of the blood , a peculiar odour, and great proneness to decomposition .
4. There is no resemblance whatever between cattle plague and the typhoid or enterios fever of man in their anatomical lesions, their clinical history, or their etiology . All arguments derived from the supposed identity of these two maladies are therefore baseless .
5. Cattle plague is equally distinct from human typhus, scarlet fever, erysipelas , influenza, or dysentery .
6. Cattle plague belongs unquestionably to the same class of diseases as the human exanthemata, such as variola , scarlatina, andand rubeola.
7. Small -pox is the human malady which it most closely resembles ; this resemblance hold good, not merely, to a great extent, in the cutaneous eruptions of the two diseases , but in their symptoms and anatomical lesions , and in their extreme contagiousness , and capability of propagation by inoculation.
8. The resemblance between rinderpest and variola is sufficiently striking to demand immediate inquiry, whether vaccination or an attack of ordinary cow -pox confers future, immunity from rinderpest, or modifies its course . The result of such an experimental inquiry can alone determine the identity or non - identity of the two diseases ; but if the reply to the inquiry be in the affirmative, a certain method of arresting the spread of the cattle plague will be placed in our hands."
A supplement to this summary adds , " the obvious inference" from some experiments " is that, notwithstanding the close analogies between the cattle plague and human small - pox, the former disease like the so - called small- pox of sheep is uninfluenced by ordinary vaccinia, and like it therefore , is in all probability a distinct specics of disease from human small -pox. " (Third Report, Appendix , p . 79.)
The foregoing is extremely interesting as showing-
1. That the cattle plague of England resembles our " gootce" even more closely than it does " puschima." This is still moremore clearly brought out by the detailedailed report in which the analogy ( identity ? ) is pointedly discussed .
2. That the analogies between this and human diseases pointed out at p . p. 23, 24, and 25 of the text are amply confirmed; more particularly the non- identity of cattle plague and typhoid fever, and the strong similarity of the former and small-pox . Dr. Murchison says :- "The changes which take place in peyer's patches are obviously the result of the general intense inflammation of the mucous membrane . There are no sub - mucous deposits , and none of the lesions running through definite stages to ulceration which I am familiar with in the typhoid or enterio fever of man . " An opinion exactly identical with that which I was led to from a study of the Indian Cattle Plague .
[ 154
3. It will be remarked that in the descriptions of rinderpest , from which I drew the condensed account given in the text, a cutaneous eruption is not described . This must have been owing to either superficial exammation or accidental ommission ; for Dr. Sanderson , who specially investigated the symptoms of cattle disease , not only himself describes an eruption in the form of thickened patches of epidermis , excexcoriations , papules , crusts , pustules , and tubercles , but quotes a longlong array of continental pathologists to the same effect . A skin eruptioneruption is then at essential feature of rinderpest, and its absence exceptional ,exceptional , and puschima, if it is really void of a cutaneous eruption, which I doubt , is in that particular different from rinderpest,-a remarkable tact quite opposed to the opinion hitherto held on the subject in this country on high authority .
4. The spasmodic phenomena mentioned in the preceding pages , though not specified by Dr. Murchison, are described by numerous authorities .
5. The swellings of the neck recorded in so many accounts of gootee and puschima appear to be pecular to this country , as they are not mentioned by any other authority which I have consulted .
Infectiousness .
" We adhere then to the opinion we formerly expressed , that the true mode of preventing the spread of the cattle plague is to treat it as an entirely contagious disease . We believe this expresses the whole truth ; but if it be not so, if some other conditions of which we know nothing, favour or restrict its spread, this does not remove our obligation to act on what is ascertained with certainty . " (Third Report, p . 8.)
Inoculation and Vaccination .
"The substitution of a mild for a fatal disease , as of cow -pox for human small -pox, has naturally been hoped for in cattle plague . It will be seen in the report of Dr. Sanderson , and appears also from experiments tried at the Royal Veterinary College, that the vaccine virus , whether taken direct from cows , or after passing through the human body, has no effect on cattle plugue, and that hunan small - pox and the virus of the small - pox of sheep (variola ovina) have likewise no influence. The virus of cattle plague , after transmission through the bodies of sheep and goats , returned into the body of an ox, is found to have lost none of its intensity. Repeated transmission of the virus through cattle weakens its power, but in no very sensible degrco . At present the vehicle of the poison, whether it be blood , serum or mucous discharge, appears also to influence its action little, if at all , while mere dilution has no effect whatever . In fact , all attempts either to weaken the power of the cattle plague poison, or to find another agent which might make the system of the ox insusceptible το it have entirely failed." ( Third Report, p . 9.)
Treatment .
" But, although as respects the value of drugs , the evidence is merely negative ; this is not the case as to diet . The information obtained by the Edinburgh Cattle Plague Committee shows that by judicious feeding with soft mashes of digestible food , the proportion of recoveries has been considerably and in some places very largely increased . This is consistent with the pathology of the disease. *** It does not appear that any advantage is to be obtained by giving large quantities of stimulants . *** We must close this section of our Report with the admission that in this as in other countries no drug has been tound which can be recommended as either an antidote or a paliative." (Third Report , p. 14.) [ 155 )

I HAVE the honor to forward my paper on Cattle diseases .
2. I send two compilations , one of a more detailed and the other of a more concise description .
3. In the first , I have gone as thoroughly into the subject as I could . Having determined upon a definite plan of writing every fact of importance which I found in the papers submitted to me by Government, or in other records which I had access to , is put down in its proper place .
4. By arranging all the numerous references in numerical order, in a consecutive list , I have been enabled , by simply quoting their number on the list, to effect a great saving of space , and to shew what authority or autho- rities I have for my statements .
5. In composing this paper I have made as much use of scientific terms and digressed as much into scientific discussion as I considered neces- sary to render the subject as complete as possible .
6. From the information placed at my disposal , I have been enabled to draw up a tolerably accurate and complete account of the epizootics which are destroying the cattle of Bengal , and when any points are doubtful or require investigation, and less remains to do in this direction than I antici- pated, I have indicated them pointedly .
7. The shorter paper was written after the longer was completed , and is that which I have composed for translation .
8. It contains the essence of the other paper without reference or discussion, and is a simple exposition of the subject in unscientific and plain language, with plain rules for treatment .
9. In order, however , to render the pamphlet as practically useful as possible, I have in three pretty lengthy appendices given-
(a.) A short statement of the nature , symptoms, and treatment of the principal diseases of cattle ; ..
(6. ) A list of the best medicines , their actions , uses and doses, distin- guishing those that can be had in native bazars ; and
(c.) Eighty- six simple prescriptions, arranged according to the action of their principal ingredient , also distinguishing those which can be had in bazars from the rest, and giving native names , weights , and measures .
10. I have thus spared no pains to carry out the design of Govern- ment, as communicated to me in your letter No. 3751 of 3rd September 1867. The labor expended on the compilations has not been slight , and I have endeavored to be as accurate and complete as possible .
11. The longer paper might , perhaps, be interesting and useful as a distinct publication in English , besides constituting a record of all that is known on the subject up to date in an accessible form . You will , however, be better able to judge of what ought to be done with them after perusal .

On the Cattle Plague of Lower Bengal by Kenneth McLeod , A. M. , M. D. , Assistant Surgeon , Her Majesty's Indian Army .
Or late years the attention of the Government of Bengal has been drawn to the losses which are sustained every year by diseases affecting cattle. Hundreds of cattle are yearly swept away throughout the Presidency, and when any of these dreadful visitations appear in a district , the cultivation of the crops is very seriously impeded . This is owing not only to the scarcity of cows which ensues from the great majority having died from disease , nor from the difficulty which a poor ryot who has been deprived of all his cattle finds in buying others to take their place , (and this he can only do by obtaining loans from Mahajuns , sometimes at an exorbitant rate of interest,) but also to the rise in the price of cattle whichhich in some places amounts to ten times as much as it was before the plague appeared . Magistrates of Districts have reported this state of matters, and it is well known that after a season of severe cattle disease the crops of next year are deficient . This causes much suffering and hunger. It is therefore a matter of the utmost importance to the inhabitants of the Presidency , the majority of whom depend so entirely on the state of the crops from year to year, and a matter of great concern to Government , whose interest is theirs, to endeavor to ascertain , as far as possible, the causes of this disease and mortality among cattle , and the conditions on which its appearance and spread depend , in order that these causes and conditions may be obviated ; the symptoms of the diseases , in order that they may be recognized and propeily treated ; and the modes of treatment that have been found most successful , in order that when the diseases do appear as great a number of cattle may be saved as possible . It is with these ends in view that the following pamphlet , containing in short all that is known upon the subject , has been, at the request of Government, compiled for circulation .
I. Ilistory of Cattle Diseases in Bengal .Itis difficult to fix the time when these diseases first made their appearance in the Presidency. There are records of severe cattle disease having prevailed in 1817 ( B. C. 1222) , in 1824 , ( B. C. 1229 ) , 1836 , ( В. С. 1241 ) , and 1853 (B. C. 1258) . In some Districts they are known to have prevailed from the earliest recollection , and in others persons writing in 1864 , ( B. C. 1269 ) state that they have prevailed for 20 or 30 years previously. The attention of the Government of Bengal was drawn to the subject in 1863 (B. C. 1268) by the Government of Madras, in which Presidency severe cattle disease had prevailed . Reports were called for from Commissioners , who received numerous letters from Magistrates . These contain the information derived from Deputy Magistrates , CivilSurgeons , Zemindars , European and Native, and Goallas , and the substance of the information so collected was published in the Calcutta Gazette of 12th March 1864. In January 1864 (Magh 1269 ) a very severe and fatal outbreak of cattle disease appeared on the occasion of the Exhibition at Alipore . This further arrested the attention of Government , who commissioned Dr. Palmer to investigate the subject . This gentleman presented a very full and interesting report in March 1865 , ( Choyt 1870) which was circulated to Commissioners , Magistrates, and Medical Officers, with a request for further information . The request was amply responded to, and during 1866 ( B. C. 1271 ) a great number of highly interesting reports were forwarded from all parts of Bengal . The whole of the inform- ation thus obtained will be concisely and methodically set forth in the following pages . All diseases of cattle will notbe discussed . Attention will be directed to those only which , like cholera and fevers among men , break out amongst cattle , and carrying away large numbers, attack first one place and then proceed to another , rage virulently for a time and then die out . These diseases are called epizootic diseases .
II . The varieties of these diseases and the names by which they are known. It wouldbe a highly important matter if the same diseases had the same names in the different districts of the Presidency . This is not the case, and it is difficult, from the imperfect descriptions given by those not skilled in diseases of cattle, to know sometimes what disease in one district corresponds to what disease in another district , when the names are not the same . An exact description of a disease under the name by which it is known in most districts ought to remove this difficulty , and it is hoped that there will henceforth be no difficulty in recognizing the diseases treated of in this paper under their most common names . The cattle diseases which affect numbers of animals simultaneously in Bengal are of two classes :-
A.-In ono there is an eruption observed on some portion of the skin ; and B. In the other there is no such eruption to be seen.
1. In the former class we find a very common disease affecting the hoofs and mouth of cows, and though not very deadly , attacking great numbers of animals, laming and temporarily disabling them . This disease is called in different places Khorah, Khoraha, Khoorea, Zairkhara , Khurpakka , Khoratulch , Khoratie and Ilomsa . Its cxistence hasbeen reported from the dis- tricts of Shahabad , Tirhoot, Rajshahye, 24- Pergunnahs , Jessore, Cuttack , Hazareebaugh, Loharduggah , Midnapoor, and Backergunge ; but it is probable that it is known every where throughout the Presidency , and may have other names than those above enumerated. I shall in the sequel always call it Khorah .
[ 157 ]
2. There is another disease with an eruption appearing upon the body accompanied with more severe sickness, and in every way more serious and fatal, which , from its resemblance to the small- pox of man, is called Gootee , Boshonto, Mata, Chechack , Sitala , Mardrishti , Takrooni, and Markhee . This disease is known every where in Bengal under one or more of the foregoing names .
In writing about it I shall always call it Gootre.
3. There is another disease without any eruption on the body which , when it breaks out among cattle, is fearfully infectious, rapid , and fatal . This disease is most commonly called Puschima, or Paschima Reg or Puschima Nura . It appears also to be called Dukuha , İlengaha , Waghah, Dosalin , Jor, Burrapera , Hureena , Hurna , & c , and is known best in the districts of Nuddea, 24 - Pergunnahs, Jessore, Burdwan , Hooghly and lowrah , and apparently also in Patna, Sarun, Rajshabye, Rungpore, Bograh , Midnapore, Pooree , Nowgong , and Darjeeling . I shall always call it Fuschima. These are the three best known , and most minutely described diseases affecting numbers of cattle . It is from these that by far the greater number of animals which die every year in Bengal are lost. Other diserses are comparatively rare and unimportant . This paper will therefore be confined to a minute consideration of them , and from the exact description of their symptoms , which a study of so many intelligent reports has enabled me to give , other varieties of disease can be separated and studied . In Appen- dix A. I shall place a short description of the most important diseases of cattle and their treatment, and in Appendix B. I shall enumerate the principal medicines and their doses used in the treatment of all diseases of cows . At present our concern is with Khorah , Gootee , and Puschima only . III . The mode in which these diseases appear and spread in localities . The following facts are well ascertained under this head :-
1. During the season when these diseases are apt to prevail , or in the neighbourhood of places in which they do prevail, mild cases are frequently observed .
2. Before the diseases break out with force , a few cases may be seen here and there of a mild description .
3. When the disease breaks out , first one cow and then many cows are affected .
4. The cases which occur at first are more severe and fatal than those which occur towards the end of the outbreak .
5. These diseases appear to prevail principally among herds of cattle , especially if they are crowded together .
6. After the disease disappears from a place, cases of a mild description occur here and there .
7. These diseases visit places after an interval of one to ten years .
8. When they do break out they rage in a place for about three months .
9. During the prevalance of the diseases , while most places and cattle are visited and attacked , some escape . 10. Severe disease is sometimes preceded or succeeded by a milder form of disease .
11. Sometimes the disease is observed to spread in a particular direction, and it has been most frequently noticed to travel eastward .
12. In many cases severe disease among cattle and men have raged together in the same place at the same time .
13. Besides cattle other animals are observed to suffer from similar diseases, buffaloes, sheep, gonts , deer, pigs , fowls , pigeons , and ducks .
14 It has been often observed that diseased cows carry the disease to a healthy locality and infect others .
15. A place that has once suffered from any of these diseases , if visited again within a short time , does not suffer so much.
16. The laws of origin and spread of the diseases treated of are similar to those of some human diseases , such as cholera . IV. The causes of these disrases . These are of two kinds :-
A.-The causes and conditions that dispose some animals to be affected by then , and more severely than others ; and
B. The causes that immediately give rise to the disease in the body .
A. Of the first class ,
1. Season of year holds an important place. From very many statements it appears that while these diseases are apt to occur during the whole year , they are most virulent and fatal in the cold and hot seasons , and less prevalent in the rains , With regard to the parti- cular diseases , Khorali seems to be most frequent during and after the rains, Gootee in the hot weather, and Puschuma in the cold months .
2. The state of country , soil , and atmosphere, which seems to give origin to and favor the spread of these disenses , is a moist soil liable to inundation with fresh water , low lying, and level , moist warm atmosphere, and great heat .
3. Cattle fed on coarse grass , old straw , or grazed on pastures which have been recently under water, are more liable to tako these diseases and take them more severely than [ 158 ]
those which are fed on good straw, chopped and soaked, dry pastures or fine grasses . Dirty water also predisposes to disease .
4. Cows in bad condition are more liable to be affected than those in good condition , unless the disease is very virulent , in which case there appears to be no selection
5. The age and sex of the cow do not appear to have much effect predisposing to disease or otherwise .
6. Cattle over crowded, kept in damp houses, ill cleaned, over worked , not properly rubbed dry after getting wet or perspiring, and ill fed and watered, are more liable to be attacked than those housed and treated with care .
B. The exact cause of these diseases has not been as yet found out , but
1. There is every reason to believe that it is a poison, generated under peculiar conditions of soil and atmosphere which enters the animal with the air, food or drink , causes a certain disease , and having been multiplied in the body, is evacuated by and among the discharges . Other animals are apt to be affected by the breath or discharges of a diseased animal , and the air , water , grass , straw or even man , flies , birds , dogs or jackals may carry the poison from one to the other. This is the most probable explanation of the way in which these diseases appear and spread.
2. There can be no doubt of the fact that one animal is capable of imparting these diseases to one or many others , and the way in which this may happen will be understood from the preceding paragraph .
All the medical men who have described the discases , and many of the Magistrates , Zemindars , & c. , consider it infectious in the highest degree .
V.-The symtoms of Khorah ,Goutee , and Puschima . In all these diseases there is more or less fever, and there are besides certain symptoms of a local kind peculiar to each disease .
1. In Khorah there is generally very slight fever, and in most cases the lameness and soreness of the mouth are the only symptoms noticed . The lameness is caused by an eruption between the hoofs , and a similar eruption may be observed inside the mouth. The eruption consists of little bags of watery fluid which rise on the skin . These burst and an uleer or orust forms . The danger of this disease is, that from want of proper care the ulcers of the foot and mouth may become large, or flies may attack them , maggots form , the legs become swollen and rotten , and the animal die in consequence . The water that comes out of the mouth of animals suffering from this disease is sufficient to give rise to it in others , and the symptoms appear in about two days after the cows have eaten straw which has been soaked in the saliva of diseased animals .
When the discase is severe, the animal refuses food ; becomes thirsty, does not chew the cud ; has a hot, dry, and rough skin , and a tender udder . The milk is diminished in quantity, the urine becomes high colored , the eyes and mouth water, and diarrhea may come on. The eruption may also appear on other parts of the body , the udder , neck , & c . There are then two forms of the disease, one mild with only local symptoms, and another severe with symptoms of constitutional disturbance besides ; the disease lasts from ten to fifteen days, and if proper care and correct modes of treatment are adopted, few animals will die . 2. Gootee is a much more formidable and fatal disease . In most cases there may be three stages of the diseaso distinguished .
1st, a period of sickness before the disease breaks out severely ;
2nd, a period of fever ; and 3rd, a period when cruptions appear on the skin, or the bowels become affected, or both effects ensue .
1st . During the first period , which lasts two or three days, the cow is observed not to be so lively as usual , to stand apart from the rest and not to feed so heartily . The eye looks dull , the animal generally looks il , and is either restless or disinclined to move. The milk also diminishes in quantity. The skin looks dry and rough , and sometimes there is a cough . It is extremely important to note these syinptoins , because they willat once suggest the propriety of removing the animal from among the healthy .
2nd. The second stage lasts also two or three days . At its commencement the animal frequently shivers violently, and now the disease begins in earnest. The following symptoms may be observed during the stage:-
1. Incrcased heat of skin, ears , horns , & c .
2. Roughness of skin, erection of hair and dropping back of cars .
3. Increased rate of pulse and breathing .
4. Complete refusal of food .
5. Absence of rumination .
6. Intcuse thirst .
7. Inflammation and watering of eyes .
8. Discharge of watery matter from mouth and nostrils .
9. Dry muzzle .
10. Cough occasionally .
11. Swollen tongue .
12. Scanty red urine .
18. General appearance of great distress .
14. Diminished, or suspended milk .
Srd . On the second or third day from the beginning of the second period, the bowols become loose and slimy watery stools , in which blood soon begins to appear are passed frequently .
On the fourth or fifth day cruptions of vesicles succeeded by crusts appear on the whole body or on some part of it . The whole skin, mouth, and hoofs should be carefully examined for these cruptions during this stage ; sometimes however they are absent altogether . The hair of the skin close to the eruptions can be rubbed off, and when the eruption is copious , the whole of the hair can be removed. During this period the animal is apt to sink from prostration , the fever leaves , and the skin becomes cold . The discharges become brown or yellow, and begin to smell badly . The feet become cold, ulcers are prone to form in the mouth and skin, the throat may become swollen and ulcerated, the tongue incrcasos in size . The stomach sometimes swells from wind and the animal eventually lies down and dies .
The whole disease lasts about eight days , and if the animal recovers , it takes fifteen or twenty days to do so .
It is a very common and fatal disease, hundreds of cattle are killed by it every year, and when it breaks out in a flock , few cows escape seizure , and of those affected not more than one or two in twenty escape death.
Besides the symptoms described there may be-
1. Severo cough and pain in the chest from inflammation of the lungs .
2. Pain in the stomach from an excess of dry food in it .
3. Swelling of the stomach from wind .
4. Ulcers or maggots on the skin or throat .
3. The symptoms of Puschima are very like those of Gootee . It is a more severe disease, kills more and sooner. As the stages and symptoms are so similar inboth diseases , it will be unnecessary to repeat them in detail, and it willbe sufficient to point out the principal points of difference .
1. The fever is not so strong in Puschima as in Gootee, and it goes and comes , the body being alternately hot and cold . There is also a greater tendency to coldness in the extremities and along the spine of the back than in Gootee .
2. The looseness of the bowels comes on sooner ; sometimes as carly as the second day from the date of the shivering or commencement of the fever, and it is sooner followed by adischarge of blood . The stools are more liquid and fœtid than in the last disease.
3. The other discharges begin soonor to lose their clearness in Puschima , and the breath smells stronger and sooner than in Gootee .
4. The throat is sore in Puschima, it is more apt to swell externally than in Gootee ; the tongue also becomes red and swollen .
5. There is no cruption upon the skin in Puschima . Every case of Gootee, however , which dies without an eruption , must not be called Puschima , because if a cow dies before the fourth or fifth day in Gootee there can be no eruption, and many cases which live longer do not exhibit any skin eruption . The character of the disease is to be determined from the general symptoms of the disease as observed in many animals . 6. There are twitchings of the muscles in Puschima and none in Gootce .
7. The duration of Puschima is shorter (average four days) than of Gootee (average eight or nine days ) .
8. This disease is equally infectious with the last and more destructive. A greater number of the cattle attacked die of it (about 90 per cent . of those attacked) .
With these reservations the description given of Gootee will apply exactly to Puschima,
From the preceding account of these diseases it will not be found difficult to distinguish between them .
The eruptions inside the mouth and in the cleft of the hoof, in either or both places , with slight derangement of general health , should distinguish Khorah from all other diseases . Severe cases of Khorah sometimes resemble slight cases of Gootee and the reverse . As far as regards treatment, it is not of great importance to be very accurato in naming such cases , though the general character of the disease in the majority of cases affected will lead to a know- ledge of which disease is actually present. Gootee is determined by the more severe disturbance of health , higher fever , more severe bowel complaint , and the eruption bemg general , from Gootee . Cases of Gootee occur, however , which it is difficult to distinguish from Puschima, in which the animal dies of severe constitutional discuse without any eruption on the body. Here again the disease should be named rather from the nature of its manifestation in the majority of cases than from any individual case . A case should not be called Puschima, because there has been no eruption , if most cows affected shew an eruption , nor should an eruption on the body in any case constitute that Gootee, when the outbreak is plainly one of Puschima. In estimating the probability of the issue of the case, the following points should be borne in mind :-
1. In Khorah the absence of constitutional disturbance , and of vleeration and swelling of the foot are good signs , and the existence of disorder ofof general health , and of ulceration or swelling of the foot are bad signs , and suggest greater caution in treating the case .
2. In Gootce we form an opinion on the extent of the eruption and severity, of the constitutional symptoms, Acopious eruption is a good sign .
A slight eruption with severe diarrhma is a bad sign .
The earlier the diarrhea and dysentery appear , the worse the discharges smell ; the greater tendency the body has to cool ; the more unfavorable our opinion of the case, and the reverse .
3. In Puschima our opinion must depend altogether upon the character of the consti- tutional symptoms .
If the diarrhea sets in early and is soon followed by dysentery, if the discharges smell badly , if the body has a tendency to grow cold, and the febrile stage is very short, then the probability of the case proving fatal is very strong . If the body retains its warinth , the discharges are not very fœtid , and the diarrhea and dysentery are mild, then the hope of recovery is stronger .
Swelling of the throat or stomach are bad signs, and evident pain in the chest or belly give evidence of some complications which diminishes the chance of recovery .
VI.- The appearances observed in the internul organs after death. When the body of the cow is opened in Gootee and Paschima, the state of the internal organs is found to be very much the same .
1. The blood in both diseases is seen to be black and thick, and in the heart solid lumps are frequently found .
2. The whole of the inside of the mouth, throat, stomach, and intestines , is inflamed and covered with ulcers .
In the stomach is frequently found food hard , dry, and powdered , pressed together in hard plates. This is the cause of death in very many cases .
3. The lungs are sometimes found to be inflamed, and the lining membrane of the windpipe also swollen and red .
4. The spleen and the liver are sometimes found to be swollen and filled with blood . These are the principal appearances observed. They indicate a very severe form of disease of the febrile kind .
VII . The nature of these diseases. The symptoms of disease observed during life and the appearances observed after death , leave no doubt that Khorah , Gortee , and Puschima are fevers accompanied with an eruption of the skin or otherwise . They exactly resemble no disease of man but are some what like several as small - pox , some fevers and the plague . None of them are the same as the small - pox of man , and they have different symptoms from cholera .
They are in all probability caused by a poison which is derived from the soil in certain states of it , or from other animals suffering from the sunle disease . This poison enters the body of the animal by the nostrils or mouth , and after a certain time signs of sickness appear . The animal first becomes disordered , then, as the action of the poison becomes more intense, a state of fever arises ; then , the system attempting to throw off the poison by the skin or bowels, these become affected with inflammation or actually ulcerated , and from the effects of these processes, upon the system exhaustion and death ensue .
According to the strength of the poison, the effects will be more or less severe , and there is some reason to think that these diseases are caused by a poison of the same kind in different degrees of strength .
VIII .- Treatment.- Before entering upon the details of treatment , there are a few obvious truths which it would be well always to bear in mind.
1. It is infinitely better and easier, if that is possible, to prevent cattle from having these diseases than to cure them when they have got them .
2. When any of these diseases break out among cattle , a certain proportion of deaths must be expected ; our object is by taking advantage of every means in our powerto promote recovery to render the loss as slight as possible .
3. Failure of any plan of treatment in one case does not prove that it may not succeed in another .
4. It is only by trying different means of treatment with perseverance and hope, and by comparing these with each other, that we can determine which is best and most successful . 5. The more we know of diseases and of the actions of medicines the better we can
cure the former and apply the latter.
6. In order to know and be able to do as much as possible, it is incumbent upon every one to observe the characters of diseases as much as possible and the actions of medicines , and to communicate any new observations or facts to others .
These truths will command general assent .
In order to give the most complete view of the treatment of these cattle diseases, I shall state:first , what means ought to be taken to improve the condition of cattle so as to render them as little liable to disease as possible , and better able to stand it if it comes ; second, if the disease is in the neighbourhood , what means should be adopted to prevent its access to a place ; third, it it does appear in a place , what means should be taken to prevent its spreading and seizing on all the cattle ; and fourth , what medicines it is proper to give in each kind ofdiseaseto assist recovery .
*18%.-What ought to be done to keep cattle healthy and in good condition ?
For this purpose the following points demand particular attention :---
( a.) The breed of cattle shouldbe improved by getting strong bulls from a different flock and of a good stock , and preventing the bulls of the flock itself from covering ; by pre- venting bulls from covering too young ; by feeding calves well , and not beginning to work them too early .
Breeding should be preferred to purchasing cattle, because it diminishes the chance of introducing disease .
b. The food of cattle should be carefully studied . The grass which springs up in the early rains is injurious .
Pastures that have been recently inundated are poisonous .
Coarse grasses with thick stems are bad .
Fine dry pastures are most suitable for grazing cattle .
Paddy straw carefully dried and stacked , and meadow hay preserved in the same manner , are the best food for ordinary use ; these should be chopped up and moistened .
If the cattle are worked , gram , dhan , oil - cake , or coarse peas should be given in small quantities . Chopped plantain stocks and young leaves are nutritious when nothing else canbegot.
(c.) The houses of cattle should be made a matter of care .
They shouldbe large enough . It is the worst thing possible for cattle to crowd too many in the same house .
The floor should be dry and raised above the ground with dry earth , sand or bamboos ; they should slope to the outside to allow fluid to run off.
The roof should not admit rain, and openings should be left in the walls for ventilation .
The floors of cattle sheds should never be wet or muddy .
(d.) The water which cattle drink should be clean. Old tauk and bheel water is poisonous . Water for cows should be drawn from rivers or clean tanks .
(e. ) Cleantiness should be carefully attended to. Dung should be removed daily and heaped at some distance from the cow house . Dry clean straw should be given for a bed everynight.
(f.) In working cattle care should be taken not to over work them; not to work them too long without food; four hours at a time is enough to rub their skins dry with straw if they get wot or perspire, and to proportion the work to the age and constitution of the animal .
The value of cattle to the Zemindars and Ryots of this country is well known , and if they are worth having , they are certainly worth being taken care of, especially as neglect of any of the points above enumerated renders them more liable to catch disease and less capable of resisting it when it comes . 2nd. When cattle disease is in the neighbourhood .
(a. ) The greatest care should be taken to prevent infection by keeping cattle away from public roads and routes of travel , and refraining from buying and selling .
(6.) The housing , cleanliness , food and drink of cattle should at such times be more particularly attended to. (c.) All communication of every sort with infected places should be suspended.
(d.) Hospitals (kutcha) should be constructed in secluded places in case of their being required.
Srd. When the disease actually appears .
(a. ) All the sick cattle should be placed apart from the rest in kutcha hospitals , and the straw, & c. , which they came in contact with should be burnt .
(6.) The healthy cattle should at once be removed to places several miles away where no disease is known to exist .
(c.) If disease follows them there , then the sick and healthy should be again separated and the latter removed again ; this should be repeated till the disease disappears ; large herds should be split up into smaller sections .
(d.) All straw, bamboos , grass , &c . , in contact with sick cattle should be burnt, and their dung carefully buried or burnt with the straw.
(e.) All carcases of cattle should be carefully buried at least three feet (two hats ) below the surface.
(f.) The hides should never be removed from the carcases but buried with them .
(g) When a cow recovers , it shouldbe washed carefully with soap and water. (h.) Sick cattle should never be permitted to remain on a pasture, as their saliva and dung is poisonous .
( Before the healthy are brought back to a village, from which by these means the disease Has disappeared , everything that has been in contact with the sick should be burnt , and some time should elapse before the cattle are brought in .
These rules are based upon experience, and many instances are reported where the adop- tion of the rules saved many cattle from infection . The carrying out of them involves some trouble , but what is that in comparison with the value of the stock saved ?
There is no other method of preventing the spread of these diseases , and when experience has proved the value and efficacy of these directions , they should be adopted without hesitation.
On this point there is no need for further trial or experiment .
Theadvantages of the plans recommended have been proved over and over again .
4th. It now remains toto point cut what method of treatment is suitable in the different diseases already trented of.
A.- In Khorah the eruptions and ulcers demand the attention more than the general disease .
(a.) The most common method adopted in this country is to keep cows standing in water or soft mud; this prevents the flies from attacking the sores , and cures the great majority of cases . It mustbe done thoroughly and continuously , if done at all. The eruptions and sores should at the same time be washed with a lotion which may consist of-
Alum ( Phitkerie)
Water
Or Borax (Sohaga)
Water
Or Salt ( Lobun)
Water
chittack .
1 seer.
1 chittack .

2 chittacks .

(6.) If the water or mud method is not convenient , the feet should be carefully washed and tar ( alkatra ) , kurrunj oil , camphor (kafoor) , and linseed oil ( inoshiner tel) , as much , camphor as will dissolve in the oil with the aid of heat, or sulphate of copper (tootea ) and treacle ( khar ) (Appendix C. No. 72) should be applied to the eruption or ulcer with a bit of cloth tied to the end of a stick .
(c .) A slight purge should be given-
Epsom salts (sats)
Salt ( lobun)
Powdered Ginger (soot) Water(jol)
4 chittacks .

To be given in one seer of rice water , or boossie and water , twice aday. (e.) If the ulcers are large, alum (phitkeree) should be dried and powdered and sprinkled on them, and they should subsequently be washed with indigo water (nil jol) , or neem water ( neem jol ) , or sulphate of copper , or alum water .
If the ulcers become unhealthy they should be burnt with arsenic (shenko beesh) , corrosive sublimate ( roslikopoor ) , either alone or mixed with other as much flour (soojee) , or nitric acid (shora er drapoc) , or nitrate of silver (kastic ) , or sulphate of copper (tootea) , and then treated with alum and water or any of the lotions above given.
(f.) If through carelessness maggots (kirmi ) form , they should be carefully extracted , the swelling should be poulticed with boossie and powdered charcoal (koela) and camphor (
kafoor) and oil of turpentine (tarpentel) and oil frequently applied. If these directions are carefully attended to few cattle will be lost from Khorah .
B.-In Gootee the constitutional disease is of more importance than the local eruption . (a .) One gentlernan (Mr. Piddington) has strongly recommended the following plan of treatment for curing the sick and preventing the healthy from taking the disease .
The sick and healthy cattle are locked up in separate houses with all the doors closed ; a plateful of common salt is placed on the floor and half a chittack of strong sulphuric acid (gun- druck er drapoc) and poured on it . Very irritating fumes arise . The person pouring on the acid must go out of the house at once and not breathe this white smoke ; the windows and doors are kept shut for eight or ten minutes and then opened ; the white smoke causes the cattle to [ 163 ]
cough, but is said to cure them . This should be repeated morning and pight for a few days (three or four) . If these means can't be adopted , the smoke of green wood is a good substitute, but when they can be adopted, they should certainly be tried .
(6.) Another plan is strongly recommended by Captain Chambers , namely, the adminis tration of half a chittack of black salt (kares lobun) to the sick twice a day, and one-fourth chittack twice a day to the healthy. This may be tried, but the other precautionary measures detailed under the second and third sections should not be neglected .
(c. ) Another gentleman (Dr. Jackson) found the application of croton seeds Goipal er beesh) in the form of an ointment to the side so as to excite profuse suppuration, cure the only four cattle in which he tried the plan.
Both these methods may be tried .
(d.) In the febrile stage a purge should be given ..
Common salt ( lobun)
Rice water or boossie and water
Or Epsom salts ( sats)
Sulphur (gundruck )
Ginger(soot)
In one seer of rice water , & c .
Or Linseed oil (moshiner tel )
Oil of turpentine (Tarpen tel ) Croton oil (joipal er tel)

Any of these may be given in order to produce a copious stool which assists in carrying off the poison .
The following should be occasionally administered

Nitre ( shora)
Black salt ( karee sobun )
In beer, rice water , & c. , one seer twice a day .
tolah .

Any of these or similar prescriptions can be given every four or six hours . A decoction of bael fruit or indurjub can be also occasionally administered .
In this stage the body should be washed with warm vinegar (sirka) and water (one chittack to one seer) .

(g.) If there is pain in the chest or cough the blister should be applied to the chest .
[ 164 ]
(4.) If the stomach swells or there is evident pain in it the blister should be applied, then linseed oil and turpentine according to the prescription given should be slowly administered by mouth and assafœtida (hing) capsicum (loncha mirch) carraway (jeera) with opium (afeem) or bhang administered after the bowels are moved.
(i.) During the whole of the course of the disease the strength of the animal should be sustained by means of frequent drenches of rice and water, boossie and water, suttoo and water, arrowroot and water, or similar food . The thirst of the animal impels it to take too much drink in the second stage; this should be prevented. If ale or beer can be procured, a bottle may be given twice a day . It is inmanaging the diet and sustaining the strength of the animal that the secret of successful treatment consists .
One of the first signs of recovery is a return of appetite, and soft , well washed grass should be given in small quantities , when any indication of this appears . Care should be taken to keep the animal warm if the hair falls off and to prevent its eating too much food during recovery .
(C. ) Having gone so minutely into the treatment of Gootee little remains , to be said of Puschima. The same means of treatment should be employed .
The more severe character of the disease and the greater tendency to sink should be borne in mind, and nourishing drinks should be steadily given and stimulants ammonia, ether, capsicum, beer, &c . , with camphor or opium frequently administered . In this as in the former disease all drinks and drenches should be liberally salted with common salt (lobun) or salt- peter (shora) or black salt (karee lobun).

Reports on the State of the Rice Crops in the Several Divisions of the Lower Provinces .
Abstract of Reports received regarding the actual results of the Rice Harvest, and the prospects of the Rubbee Crops , on the 1st January 1868.
DACCA DIVISION .
Backergunge. The rice harvest throughout this District will be good, the late storm having done little or no damage . The rubbee crops also promise well .
Cachar. The Deputy Commissioner during his visit into the interior found that in most places the early rice crops were extremely good ; in fact, better than those of last year , which was considered an unusually good one. The out- turn of the entire District will be much more than it was in any of the years between 1860 and 1966 , with the exception of mustard seed, which is promising : No rubbee crops are sown.
Dacca. The loss of rice from the late Cyclone is estimated at about a fifth . On the whole, however , the harvest has been a good one , and its yield has been more than those of ordinary years .
Furreedpore . The rice crops are somewhat better than those of ordinary ycars, but the rubbee crops are not generally considered very promising .
Mymensing. The ous or early rice harvest was an extremely abundant one, and in the Sub - division of Jumalpore is said to be 30 per cent . above the average . The amun or late rice crop suffered somewhat from the late storm , is somewhat below the average, probably about a 14- anna crop . The rubbee crop will , it is expected , be about the average of ordinary years .
Sylhet . The rice crops have been much better than they had been for several years . The rubhee crops which did not promise well some time ago are now expected to turn out well, though they are comparatively of little importance in this District.
[ 186 ]
BHAUGULPORE DIVISION .
Bhaugulpore . The rice harvest in the south of the District, although not quite so good as that reaped last year, was fair. On the mouth of the river a full average crop was reaped . The prospects of the rubbee crops are good .
Purneah .- Except in a part of the south of the District , submerged during the late inundation, the rice harvest was unusually plentiful . The present low prices of rice in this District have been unknown for the last fifteen years . The prospects of the rubbee crops are good .
Deogurh . The out - turn of the rice crop has excooded any of the last ten or fifteen years . The small area sown with rubbee looks well .
Nya Doomka. The rice harvest in the year under review is reported as the best known since the Sonthal rebellion of 1856. The rubbee crops are flourishing .
Rajmehal . The yield of the rice crop was as good as that of the pre- ceding year . Prospects of the spring crops fair .
Godda, Pakour. The rice crop was a fair average one , but blight injured it in some places . The rubbee crops promise well .
RAJSHAHYE DIVISION .
Bograh. Though some damage was done by the high wind and rain in November, to the more forward portion of the crop , the Collector considers that it was more than compensated for by the good done to the backward crops , the damage was much exaggerated , while the cheapness of rice scems to shew that there is no fear of a deficient crop . The principal cold weather crops , mustard , sugar, and mulberry , promise very well .
Dinagepore. The out-turn of rice has been very good , a little damage was done by the November storm , but on the whole a 15 anna crop has been secured . The prospects of the cold weather crops are very good .
Maldah . Wherever the country was not affected by the Ganges inunda- tion, the crop of rice has been very good indeed . In the inundation tracts the cold weather crops promise to more than compensate the ryots for the loss of their rice, owing to the richness of the alluvial deposit.
Moorshedabad. The rice harvest has been a full average one, as com- pared with that of years previous to the late scarcity . The prospects of the cold weather crops are most favorable.
Pubna. The crops appear to be slightly below the average, in conse- quence of the damage done by the late Cyclone . The prospects of the cold weather crops are good .
Rajshahye. The result of the rice harvest is most satisfactery throughout the District. The Collector says nothing about the cold weather crops , but the Commissioner states there need be no apprehensions on that account.
Rungpore. The rice crop is expected to be in some places only a 12 -anna one, owing to some damage done by the rain in November, and to drought in the earlier part of the season . The cold weather crops are coming on well . The Commissioner does not see the slightest cause for anxiety with regard to any portion of his Division
COOCH BEHAR DIVISION .
Gowalparah . The rice harvest is good . The Cyclone did not cause much injury to the rubbec crops , which promise well .
Western Dooars . The rice crop has been a good average onc . There is no rubbee crop worth mentioning, but ryots are beginning to cultivate both wheat and barley, and the Commissioner is in hopes that in a few years a considerable quantity of these grains will be grown .
Darjeeling. In the hills the high land crops of rice, Indian corn, and murwa, have been a failure , owing to the early fall of rains . But the rice harvest on the banks of rivers in the hills has been an average one . In the plains, owing to abundance of rain, the rice harvest is unusually good . The rubbee crops in both hills and plains are very promising .
BURDWAN DIVISION .
Bancoorah . In the Head- Quarters Sub - Division of this District the out-turn has been equal to, if hot rather in excess of, that of an average year , and the prospects of the rubbee crop within the same circle are pronounced most satisfactory .
[ 187 ]
Raneegunge Sub - Division . The rice harvest is reported to be even better than that of ordinary years, and the prospects of the rubbee are equally good . In Gurbetta the gale had some slight effect on the out- turn of the rice crop, the loss in some places being estimated at about a quarter of the growing crop . The rubbee crop is expected to be nearly equal to the average. Bood- Bood Sub - Division . The rice crop had been a full average one, and the prospects of the rubbee crop are excellent .
Beerbhoom . The rice harvest , though not as plentiful as that of the year previous , has been abundant, and the prospects of the rubbee crop are promising.
Burdwan . Excepting the Sub - Division of Raneegunge the rice harvest in this District was on an average a 12 - anna crop, compared with that of ordinary years . The rubbee crop is not expected to yield more than one- half an average out - turn .
Hooghly. Throughout the Sudder and Serampore Sub - Divisions the rice harvest is estimated at from 12 to 14 annas of an ordinary crop . There appears to be general contentment , and prices keep down , being lower than they have been for the last three years . The rubbee crop has suffered more or less , and the probable out - turn is estimated as low as 3-4ths of an average crop .
Jehanabad Sub - Division . The damage done to the rice crop by the late storın is estimated at about 2 annas , and the out - turn might be put down at 14. The prospects of the rubbee crop are very promising.
Howrah . The average yield of the rice crop is estimated at about 3-4ths of that of preceding years . Owing to the late sowings of the rubbee crops the harvest is expected to be a poor one, probably not more than one-half that of ordinary years .
Midnapore . The harvest has been reaped with great success , and its out-turn is estimated at a good 14 anna crop (13 annas being an ordinary one. ) The rubbee is unusally fine, and a greater area has been sown, compared with that of previous years .
CHITTAGONG DIVISION .
Chittagong. The rice crop has been a full average one throughout this District, rather more so indeed in the northern halfhalf of the District . The rubbee crops promise well .
Tipperah. Altogether the rice harvest of Tipperah is rather above the average. The prospects of the rubbee crops are reported to be good from all Stations, except Hajeegunge and Daoodcandy, where the crops having been sown early were damaged by the Cyclone .
Noakhally. The rice harvest has been a favorable one, and but for the Cyclone would have been remarkably good. The prospect of the rubbee crop is not so favorable as usual , though there is no serious loss anywhere . The Commissioner, in summing up the prospects of his Division, states that the harvest may be pronounced satisfactory, and the prospects of the rubbee crops slightly below the average .
ASSAM DIVISION .
Kamroop . The rice harvest has been favorable, with the exception of mustard , which promises well ; there are no rubbec crops.
Durrung. The rice crops have been unusually heavy, but the rubbee crops are not very promising , owing to the want of rain.
Nowgong. The rice harvest has been above the average. The prospects of the rubbee crop are everywhere good.
Cossyah and Jynteah Hills . The rice harvest has been a fair one, and the rubbee crops are coming on well .
Seebsaugor and Luckimpore . Reports not yet received . Chota Nagpore , Lohardugga. The rice crop is believed to have been a full one, and the prospects of the rubbee crops are very fair .
Hazarecbaugh. The rice crop has beer full 16 annas , and in many instances above that rate. The prospects of the rubbeo crops are favorable, and a larger area than usual has been cultivated.
[ 188 ]
Maunbhoom . A full crop of rice has been secured in all the Pergunnahs of this District , except Chatna , Koelapal , and Maunbhoom , where a 12 -anna crop only is expected. Prospects of the rubbee are good .
Singbhoom. The rice harvest on the whole has been an average one, but in some parts of the District there was a deficiency, owing to the failure of the intermediate rice crop , from want of rain . The Commissioner is in receipt generally of favorable reports from the Tributary Mehals . In the southern Tributary Mehals visited by him there has been an abundant harvest of rice, and the appearance of the crop on the ground was favorable.
PATNA DIVISION .
Fatna. The out- turn of the rice crop is everywhere excellent, surpassing that of average years by one -fourth to one -half. The rubbee promises well .
Gya. Rice crop has been everywhere satisfactory, the yield being in excess of that of an ordinarily favorable season . Rubbee crop also promises well as yet .
Sarun . The season was favorable, but owing to heavy rain and flood there has been some loss in Pergunnahs Goah, Muckeir , and Murhul . In other places the result is more favorable than those of ordinary years .
The prospects of the rubbee are everywhere good .
Shahabad. The rice crop has been a full one . The rubbee does not promise to be so good as it was at first anticipated ; it is estimated to yield a crop of from 8 to 10 annas .
Tirhoot . The out - turn in the Sudder Division has been estimated at 12 Rubbee promises well . annas .
Hajeepore Sub - Division . The rice crop is an 8-anna one, but the rubbee is excellent .
Tajpore Sub - Division . The result of the rice harvest in some parts is from 12 to 14 annas , while in others from 8 to 10 ; there is every prospect of a fine rubbee crop .
Durbhungah Sub - Division . In the north - west part the crop is a 12 anna one, which is less than the average; but everywhere else the out- turn is above that of average years . Rubbee sowings doing well, but owing to bad weather rulıur and surso have suffered .
Modhoobunnee Sub - Division . Rice average and rubbee good .
Seetamaree Sub - Division . The out- turn of the rice crop is 14 annas . Rubbee doing well , but requires rain to bring it on .
Chumparun . The rice harvest favorable , as compared with ordinary years ; some fcar is entertained for the rubbee crop for want of rain .
The Cominissioner observes that the rice harvest throughout his Division has been an excellent one, and the prices are lower than they have been for years . From the latest returns rice is no where selling at less than 26 seers per Rupee, while in many marts the rate is 38 seers , and upwards . The rubhee crops have been much bencfitted by a recent fall of rain.
PRESIDENCY DIVISION .
Jessore Sudder Sub - Division . The rice crop has been about 3-4ths of the expected out -turn . The Collector is of opinion that the crop has been within about 1-8th of an average one . A very considerable area in excess of that usually sown had been laid down in rice . The crops before the Cyclone were very good indeed ; and supposing 4 annas of the crop to have been destroyed , the Collector does not think the actual loss has been more than 2 annas, compared with the out - turn of ordinary years . The coll weather crops are not favorably spoken of. Towards the south and south-west of the District doubts are entertained if there will be 1-4th of an average crop of mustard, linseed, peas , & c . Towards the west and south- west of the Sub -Division prospects are somewhat better ; but at the best calculation the crop is estimated at about a sixth ; some damage has been done to the date trees, and the produce they will yield is reckoned about a fourth less than that of ordinary years . The Collector speaks of a kind of rice grown in sonce parts of the District called " Booro" not " Boro ." It ripens very quickly , and is reaped at a time when other rice crops are gone . This , it is thought , would | 189
come in very useful in years of scarcity. The Collector states that he will make further enquiries about it .
Jenidah Sub - Division . About 3-4ths of an ordinary crop , and though it cannot be compared with that of last year , which was a very full one, yet the yield will fully compensate the cultivators. The cold weather crop sown late is expected to be about half that of ordinary years .
Bagirhat Sub - Division . The rice crop will fall short of that of ordinary years by about 3-16ths . The prospects of the cold weather crops are very poor; but this Sub - Division is not much adapted to the growth of such crops . The rice crop is what the people depend on, and the chief addition to their means of livelihood derived from it isbetlenuts and cocoanuts , in which a considerable trade prevails .
Khoolnak Sub - Division.-The Chotna rice has been considerably damaged , but not the Baran . The Deputy Collector estimates the loss at about 6 annas , but the Collector thinks this high , and reckons the loss at the utmost at 4 The prospects of the cold weather crops are not cheering , and the out-turn is estimated at about a half crop . annas .
Narail Sub - Division . Considering that the crop has been an unusually good one, the result of the rice harvest is reckoned at about 6-16ths of a re- dundant and 4-16ths of an usual crop , compared with that of former years . The prospects of the winter crops are bad, owing to the protracted and high inundation followed by the Cyclone .
Magooral Sub - Division . The actual result of the rice crop is not equal to that of last year , though as good as in the previous two years . Cold weather crops are not very promising , but the Commissioner observes that the cold weather crops of the District are not important .
21-PERGUNNAHS .- Diamond Harbour Sub - Division. The rice crop is estimated at a little above half the quantity of ordinary years .
Barriepore Sub - Division . The estimate is about from 50 to 70 per cent . of ordinary years .
, rather more than less .
Sudder Sub - Dirision . The crop is on an average about half of an ordinary one
Baraset Sub -Division . The out- turn is about ths of an ordinary year .
Dum - Dum Sub - Division .-The loss of crop is estimated at 6 annas .
Busseerhaut Sub - Division . The crops on the dangoli land have been to a certain extent affected, but not those on the low lands. The damage resulting from the Cyclone is estimated at from 4 to 8 annas ; but , as before the Cyclone the promise was so luxurious , the yield will not be on an average more than 2 annas less than an ordinary crop . Cold weather crops are grown to a limited extent only .
Satkhira Sub - Division . The out - turn of the rice harvest is estimated at about half in Kaligunga and Assasoonce, and 10 annas in Satkhira . With regard to the cold weather crops , mustard and linseed are grown for home consumption, and only a 4 anna crop is expected . No reports received yet from Nuddea and the Soonderbuns .
CUTTACK DIVISION .
Cuttack . The sarud or late rice harvest has been gathered , and the crop is a very fine one . In most of the sea coast pergunnahs some little loss was caused by the gale . The out- turn is estimated at about 2-16ths less than it would otherwise have been . The damage has, however, been very limited , has called forth no specific c..mplaint , and the people are well satisfied with the harvest . The Collector states that there is not the slightest cause for anxiety, and that putting aside the Government stock of rice , the supply of food is sufficient for the year . The Pergunnahs most backward in cultivation are situated in the Jajpore Sub- Division , including Aul , Kaimah , Borrah , and Coojung . Throughout the central and western portions of the District, the cultivation has been extensive , the harvest good, and the yield plentiful . , Pergunnahs Puddumpoor , Kurmole , Toongra , Mattentnuggur , Dajoorah Kherivalkhund , Koodnida , Joypore , Paindah , Tuppunkhuud, Sabong , and [ 190 ]
Koorkookhurd, are specially noticed as not having an acre of land out of cultivation. The Commissioner states that generally there has been a good average harvest . The rubbee harvest promises well , though the area under pulse and cercals always bears a very small proportion to that on which rice only is produced.
Pooree. The season had been unusually favorable to rice cultivation, owing to the moderate and well distributed rain- fall, as also to the absence of destructive inundation, with the exception of an almost inappreciable loss from blight , and a few days rain in parts of Serai, Bulbudderpoor, and the tracts lying north of the Chilka . The crops in all the remaining cultivated area of Pooree have been above the average .
In the Khoordah estate the people are in a very prosperous condition, the area cultivated being nearly equal to that of ordinary years .
In Kotdesh and Kotrehang very little land was left unsown, and the crop is a full one.
Pergunnah Lambai, which is subject to periodical loss from inundation of the Doyah River, is fully cultivated this season .
Serai , where the people's sufferings were extreme, has been for the most part cultivated , and the crop will average 7-8ths of a full yield.
Rahang Pergunnah is fully cultivated in its eastern parts , and the crops are good . Towards the west however, and bordering on Chowbeescood, the people are still much depressed and impoverished , and more than half the land is fallow . Here the effects of the famine still linger .
In Chowbeescood only about one -half of the lands are cultivated, though liberal Tuccavee advances were given, the money appears to have been partly expended in purchasing food instead of seed only.
Manikputun and Audharee are similarly situated, and the cultivation amounts to about 10-16ths of the whole . In Sathpara, where the mortality exceeded 50 per cent . , the remaining population has wonderfully recovered ; and 10-16ths of the land cultivated. Kadhar has recovered considerably , and escaped inundation. Here and in Murichpore , Astrong , Koorloo , Banchas , Poobdoai , and Pochundoai, 3-4ths of the lands have been cultivated. Generally the year's harvest is sufficient to supply the population , and though the poorer classes will not recover their prosperity for some time, the Collector sees no cause for apprehension that food will not be forthcoming .
Rubbee cultivation is limited and affects rather the margin of profit and comfort to the more prosperous classes than the supply of food to the poorer, The out - turn is expected to be equal to that of ordinary years .
Balasore . The rice harvest has been excellent throughout the District . Prices have fallen to their former level , and rice is procurable at from 26 to 51 seers per Rupee, the rate of ordinary years being about 50 seers . Prospects of the rubbee crop are exceedingly good .

Amendment of Act No. VI of 1868 , section 133.
The present Bill proposes to repeal and re- enact, with some modifications, the License Act and the amending Act XXIX of 1867 under the title of a Bill for taxing professions , occupations , and trades .
1. For the proviso con- tained in the said section , the following shall be substitut- ed :-
The principal changes which the Bill will intro- duce are these :-
The LicenseAct taxes traders whose profits are Rupeed 200. The Bill only applies to cases where the profits equal or exceed Rupees 500 .
Provided that no such refund shall be allowed unless application to re -land shall have been made , or notice of non - shipment shall have been given , within three clear working days after the vessel on which such goods were intended to be shipped or from which they were re- landed shall have left the port .
2. This Act may be called the " Consoli- dated Customs' Act Amend- ment Act ." Short title.
STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS .
The Act comprises within one class all profits amounting to Rupees 25.000 and upwards. The Bill here makes three classes , the highest class commencing at Rupees 1,00,000, the second, at Rupees 50,000 . The Act comprises in its class IV, profits from Rupees 1,000 to Rupees 5,000 . The Bill here has two classes , the higher class commencing at Rupees 2,500 .
The rate of the tax imposed under the Act was two per cent . on the lowest income in each of the six classes . The Bill lowers this rate to 1-6 per cent . , except in the case of official incomes , where it adopts an uniform rate of one per cent.
Under the Act , all payments of whatever amount were made on a single day. Under the Bill amounts equalling or exceeding Rupees 40 will, as a rule, be payable in two half-yearly instalments . In the case of official incomes , the percentage will be deducted from the monthly payments
Section 132 of of the Consolidated Customs ' Act (No. VI of 1863) authorizes the refund of export duty levied upon goods not shipped or on goods shipped and afterwards re - landed. The privilege , however , is accompanied by a proviso that the ap- plication to re-land be made, or the notice of non-shipment be given, before the vessel leaves port . The Bengal Chamber of Commerce has represented that the section is practically a dead- letter letter owing to the impossibility , under the pre- sent system of business , of conforming to the proviso.
" As a rule," the Chamber observes- "Ships are now despatched with as little delay as possible after clearance at the Custom House. Having secured a pilot and engaged a steamer to tow her to sea, avessel starts at a very early hour the day after she clears (generally late in the afternoon) , and is half-way down the river before a shipper can be aware that a portion of his goods has been shut out.
Under the Act a Company paid for its license a sum depending on the amount of its paid - up capital . Under the Bill it will pay one per cent . on the dividend which it has declared during the previous year . If no such dividend has been de- clared, the Company will pay the nominal tax of Rupees 10. Companies whose principal place of business is out of India will pay a tax of Rupees 500 .
"A Master of a vessol may engage to take on board more thanhe finds at the last moment the ship can carry. and is unable to receive a portion of the cargo with which he clears out , but his ship cannot be detained , and the vessel leaves the port before application for re - land of short- shipment canbe made within the period limited by the Act. '
These changes rendering the tax not only lower in its amount but narrower in its incidence , it is thought expedient to withdraw from the Supreme Government the power to authorize deductions of monies paid under municipal or local laws .
W. N. MASSEY .
The present Bill accordingly proposes to extend the time within which the application or notice may be made or given to three clear working days after the vessel has left port.

Timber and woods to be free of import duty. 1. Notwithstanding anything contained in "the Indian Customs' Duties ' Act 1867" no duties of cus- toms shall be chargeable on timber and woods imported by sea into British India.
The word " Bazar " shall mean any place of trade at which there is a collection of shops or ware- houses . "Bazar."
STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS .
The word " Town" in this and the following Sections of this Act shall "Town ." mean any Town , suburb , station , cantonment , bazar , or union to which the provisions of this Act may be extended as here- inafter provided.
The Indian Customs' Duties' Act ( No. XVII of 1867) imposes duties of 7 per cent . on all timber imported into British India . These duties are so high that they have effectually checked an importation which, in the present state of demand and supply, it is desirable to encourage. The present Bill , therefore, abolishes the duties in question so far as regards timber imported by sea .

The word " Year" shall mean the period of twelve months immediately following the lat day of April , or any other date which may hereafter be fixed by the Government as the commencement of the year for financial purposев . "Year."

STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS .
Alarge class of Towns exists in which Act XX of 1856 , or the corresponding Regulations which preceded it, have been in force for many years , which have , under those laws, supported a special Police out of the proceeds of local taxation devoting any small surplus of the tax to local improvements . But many of these Towns are not sufficiently advanced for the introduction of the District Municipal Improvement Act ( III of 1864 B. C. )
Magistrate to receive the same , the first payment on the first day of, and every subsequent pay- ment on or before the first day of each succeeding month (if the tax is to be collected quarterly , the months in which the payment is to be made must be specified) , or in default thereof, arrear that maybe due will be realized by distraint and sale of the personal effects of the defaulter , or of any goods and chattels which may be found on the premises in respect of which such defaulter is ussessed (or rated) , and such other proceedings adopted for the recovery of the same as are allowed by law.

The necessity of adopting more effectual mea- sures for the local - improvement and sanitation of such Towns is generally recognized ; but the effect of an Act lately passed has been to withdraw all power of raising funds in such Town for any purposes other than the support of the Police .
SCHEDULE . D.
In the present Bill provision is made for rais- ing such amount for purposes of conservancy and local improvement, in addition to the cost of the Police , as shall seem proper with reference to the circumstances of each Town , and its requirements .

The maximum which any Town can be called on to pay for Police has been retained at an average of two annas per mensem on each house , as fixed by Act XX of 1856 , and originally in 1818 ; but it is provided that the total amount of assessment for all purposes of the Act may reach a maximum averaging three annas on each house , the difference between the cost of Police and the total amount raised being devoted to conser- vancy and local improvements .

The circumstances of Cantonments are generally such as would justify the introduction of the Dis- trict Municipal Improvement Act, but this cannot be extended to them ; whereas the Canton- ment Act XXII of 1861 recognizes the operation of Act XX of 1956y of which the present law will take the place. For these reasons the mode of taxation which was adopted in Municipalities under the District Municipal Improvement Act , by a rate on the value of property, has been made applicable to Cantonments by this Bill. This is no innovation, as the adoption of this mode of taxation, whenever it might seem proper, was Rs. As. within the discretion of the Executive Govern- ment under Act XX of 1856 .

RESOLUTION. For some time past the Government of India has had under its consideration the manner in which Natives of India, who have adopted the European style , iu respect to hoots and shoes , should be permitted to appear on official or somi -official occasions , in the presonce of the servants of the British Government . The matter is not dovoid of importance , as affecting the treatment of the upper classes of Natives by British Officera.
"Licutonant has | passed the Examination in the Native languages which gualifies for Staff employment . "
Lieutenant passed an Examinat in the Native langua by the Higher (or Lon as the case may be) St dard. 1 2. After consulting all the principal Officers in the country, civil and political, the Governor General in Council is of opinion that a definito and specific rulo on the subject has become necessary.
Order Books to be corrected accordingly.
No. 27 -The following Extracts from the Los Gazettes of the 4th, 7th, and 14th February 18 pagos 5:36 , 537, 599 , and 722 , aro published for gen information:-

Lieutenant Richard Percival Davis , late 16th No Infantry , dated 24th July 1853 .
3. At some of the Presidency Towns and other large stations a practice has grown up wheroby Natives wear- ing boots and shoes of European fashion are permitted to appear on all official and semi- official occasions before the highest functionaries of Government . The practico haa for many years been allowed at Government House in Calcutta, and was definitively settled by Notification , No. 5356 of the 10th December 1854 , in the Foroign Depart- ment. It is now deomed requisite that the same privilego should be allowed throughout the Bengal Presidency; otherwise there would arise gravo inconvenience if Nativos of position and consequence who had enjoyed this con- coss'on at the Capital and before the Viceroy were to bo denied it before any British Officers at the stations in the Interior of the country . And unless the social practice at the Presidency lo prescribed for observanco everywhere [ 431 ]

Report on the Inundation of the Soane .
From T. B. LANE, Esq . , Officiating Secretary to the Board of Revenue, Lower Provinces , to the Secretary to the Government of Bengal,-(No . 43.M. , dated Fort William , the 14th February 1868. )
I AM directed to forward herewith , for the information of Government , a letter in original from the Commissioner of Patna , contain- ing a full report from the District Engineer of Shahabad , on the subject of the late inundation of the Soane .
2. Mr. McNamara's report is very interesting, and may, as recom- mended by the Commissioner, suitably be published in the Gazette for general information . The greater portion of it calls for the earnest atten- tion of the Public Works Department.
3. Paragraphs 10 to 13 will be taken into consideration in connection with a separate correspondence ,. in which the Board are now engaged , regarding the formation of a statistical agency.
4. The Board also desire me to request that copies of the Collector's report and enclosure may be sent them when printed.
From R. P. JENKINS , ESQ ., Officinting Commissioner of the Patna Division , to the Secretary to the Board of Revenue , Lower Provinces ,- ( No . 1155, dated Patna, the 5th February 1868.)
No. 791 of 3rd January 1868 . I HAVE the honor to forward a copy of a letter from the Collector of Shahabad, submitting a full and interesting report from the District Engineer on the late inundation of the Soane, which I beg to submit in original for the perusal of the Board and transmission to the Government. I would recommend that Mr. MeNamara's reportbe published in the Calcutta Gazette for the information of the public .
From H. W. ALEXANDRE, ESQ. , Collector of Shahabad, to the Commissioner of the Patna Division , ( No. 791 , dated Arrah, the 3rd January 1868. )
I HAVE the honor to submit the information called for in your Circular No. 130, dated 6th September 1867 , and No. 151, dated 10th October 1867 , regarding the damage occasioned in this District by the late inundation of the Rivers Ganges and Soane.
( 196 )
2. I forward in original a very complete and intelligent report drawn out by Mr. McNamara, District Engineer, in regard to the flood of the Soane River, giving full information ( 1) as to the height of the flood ; (2) the extent of country inundated ; (3) the amount of damage occasioned . These points have been so fully detailed in Mr. McNamara's report that I have nothing to add to them.
3. From information received from the District Superintendent of Police, it seems that the damage caused to private property by the flood was as follows :-

4. I am happy to be able to report that there was no loss to human life caused by either flood .
5. The damage occasioned to public property, including publie buildings, district roads , roads , & c . , within the Municipal limits, has been given detail Engineer's Report . detail in the District 6. In paragraph 10 of his report Mr. McNamara has estimated the damage done to the Bhadye crop on the silab or low lands running along the side of the Ganges at 1,11,090 maunds, and this I take to be a very fair and correct estimate, for I deputed an intelligent Native subordinate from my office to hold a local enquiry in this matter , directing him to visit each village which had suffered, and to examine Putwaries and other village Amlah . His enquiries extended through eleven villages in Pergunnah Beheea , fifty - seven in Pergunnah Arrah , and twelve villages in Pergunnah Barragaman, in all eighty villages , in which the loss was estimated at Rupees 71,576 maunds . In other villages he was unable to obtain the requisite information from not meeting with those who could supply him with trustworthy returns , so that the above estimate is below the actual loss occasioned , and the District Engineer's calculation would appear therefore tobe as correct a one as could well be made with the meane at his disposal for acquiring information on this point.
7. Although this damage to the crops may appear at first sight to be a very serious one, it must not be overlooked that it is one which is more or less anticipated every year , as the lands near the river sown with this crop are always liable to be flooded, and are moreover sown with the full knowledge of this risk ; should they escape a flood in any year a full harvest is reaped ; should they be destroyed, the land is rendered by the flooding more rich and tertile for the ensuing Rubbee crop . No crops could look finer than do the Rubbee crops of all kinds now on the very lands which a few months ago were under water , so that in considering the loss that is occasioned to the Bhadye crop on the one hand , the gain on the other to the Rubbee must not be overlooked , the latter almost compensating for the former .
8. Mr. McNamara in his report has entered on other points of considerable interest and well worthy of consideration , such as the sufficiency or insufficiency of water- way along [ 197.1
the Railway line of embankment between the River Soane and Arrah ; suggestions as to the best means for obtaining statistical information regarding the out - turn of crops , &c . The latter subject is at present I believe under considerationby Government ; the former is a subject on which I do not feel I am called upon to give an opinion, but it is a matter of considerable importance and worthy the attention of those who are more intimately concerned in the matter . Should the informations contained in paragraphs 24 , 25 , 26 of the District Engineer's Report be quite correct in regard to the height to which the extraordinary flood of the year 1848 rose, it is a matter for serious consideraton whether, if a similar flood occurs in any future year, the present water-way along the Railway line of embankment is sufficient to ensure the stability of existing bridges .
9. I regret extremely the delay that has occurred in the submission of this report ; the District Engineer's report was , however, only received by me on the 31st ultimo , but I trust, however, that the completeness of the report may be deemed a sufficient excuse for its somewhat tardy submission .
10. The return of Mr. McNamara's report, together with the maps showing the country inundated, when no longer required, is requested .
From J. MENAMARA, Esq. , District Engineer , Shahabad Roads ,to H. W. ALEXANDER, ESQ . , Magistrate of Shahabad,-( No . 160 , dated Arrah , the 31st December 1867. )
AGREEABLY to your letter No. 1219 , dated the 22nd September last , I have the honor to submit the following notes on the flood of the Soane , which occurred on the Oth September 1864 .
2. Anticipating the receipt of your letter of instructions, I proceeded at once to trace the limits of the flood along its south and western sides , and as soon as the subsidence of the water rendered it possible to ride and swim across the tract of country affected by the inundation, I traversed it throughout its length and breadth, particularly along the banks of the Soane, and noted minutely the places in Shahabad where the river overflowed. I then crossed into the Gyale District opposite Suhar , and worked similarly down the right bank of the river to Behta , in the Patna District , whence I returned on the Ist ultimo . I was induced to examine the right bank of the river in consequence of the difference of opinion that existed after the flood of 1864 , as to whether the Soane is liable to spill in that direction . This question was referred to in paragraphs 22 and 23 of my report on the flood of 1864 , published in the Government Fazette of the 23rd August 1865.
3. I submit herewith two maps , one on a scale of four miles to the inch , giving the course and extent of the flood ; and the other on a scale of one inch to the mile , shewing in detail the river bank and the places along it in this District where the river overflowed . It will he seen that the Soane flood extended almost entirely over Pergunnahs Barrehgaon and Arrah, and over one- fourth of Ponwar and a fifth of Beheeah , covering in all an area of about 39 ) square miles .
4. The loss caused to public property is estimated as follows :-

+ The principal of these is the bridge across the Gangoy nuddee [an old course of the Ganges]
consisting of five spans of about 60 feet each , and masonry piers constructed on under - sunk foundations through 25 feet of silt and 30 feet below low water lovel.
5. It will , I trust , be deemed worthy of norice that the several Feeder Roads that came under the full influence of the flood , and con- structed of late years from the Local Funds under local management ,comprising bridges of greater maguitudet than any similar works in Bengal , have all stood the flood without injuiry. It will be remembered that the force of the flood at the gangey bridge presented a sight that was literally fearful to witness and attracted crowds of anxious spectators .
6. The loss to private property , by the destruction of native houses in the town of Arrah and the neighbouring villages , is very similar to that experienced in 1864 ; a detailed list of the damage has been prepared by the Police , and there is nothing I can add to it . 7. In accordance with the 4th paragraph of your letter of instructions, I took particular note of the injury sustained by the crops ; and I am glad to say that excepting the low silab , land north of the Buxar Road that had been previously injured by the overflow of the Ganges , the damage caused by the Soane is so slight and scattered as to be scarcely appreciable , and does not exceed 1,900 acres , the value of which may be estimated at Rupees 11,400 . The overflow of the Soane-unlike that of the Ganges goes off rapidly, and does little or no injury to the crops, save where it first breaks over the bank and sweeps away the [ 198 ]
entire cultivation . This circumstance is worth noting in connection with the tradition that prevails, as to the water of the Soane being injurious to cultivation. 8. The damage to the Bhadye crop on the silah land between the Buxar and Arrah Road and the Ganges , occasioned byoccasioned by the combined floods of the Ganges and Soane, is con siderably greater , and I estimate the loss in the manner shewn below at Rupees 1,11,090. No distress is apprehended from this loss , because the submergence of the silap land by the Ganges is a very ordinary occurrende, and the Bhadye crop is sown merely on the chance of its escaping a food ; and in the case of its being destroyed, the land is immediately re sown with Rubbee . On the silab land this latter crop needs no irrigation , and the injury by Hood to the Bhadye crop is compensated for by the increased fertility of the land, and the consequent benefit to the Rubbee crop, which forms the staplo growth of these parts and is produced in great luxuriance .
My estimate of the loss sustained by the Bhadye crop will probably appear high , but I have gone over my figures carefully , and do not think the result is exaggerated . It will be seen from the District Superintendent of Police's Report on the flood of 1964 that no truthful estimate of the injury then occasioned to the erops could possibly be formed by the means at his disposal ; and from my experience of the estimate formed in connection with the present flood , the remark applies equally. I have stated and shewn by example in a former report that the ordinary mode of enquiry regarding the out- turn of crops is worse than useless , and likely to mislead ; and I then designed and * Paragraph 2 of my letter No. 65 of the 7th February lust . submitted a plan of statistics in the form of a tabulated statement that was meant to facilitate the collection of such information from Native Zemindars and eultivators in a manner easily intelligible and familiar to them , and admitting of considerable check . The subject has occupied my attention since November 1865, when I was requested by the Collector to gather information as to the state and probable out - turn of the dughunnee cop ; and I was encouraged to proceed with it by the Collector, Mr. Alexander, and by Mesars . Stevens and Gribble, the Sub - Divisional Officers of Buxar and Sasserain . In January 1967 , I completed the statistical return alluded to ; and the Collector in taking it as the basis whereon to found his replies to the questions connected therewith put by Mr. Cockerell the late Famine Commissioner, made favourable mention of it in his report on the subject .
10. I have been induced to enter into the above explanation, as it bears on a proposition that I beg to submit for consideration ; and which I believe will go a certain way to meet enquiry on the subject that has , I understand , been instituted by Government . It is not impossible that my labours, in connection with the practical working of the question , may have led from necessity to invention .
Pursuing a modification of the plan alluded to in paragraph 8 , I annex a tabular statement of the amount of damage done to the Bhadye crop on the silid land between the Buxar and Arrah Road and the Ganges . It is easily ascertained that the culturable hand
140.000 acres .
that suffered by inundation is nearly as follows :- Pergunnahs Arrah and Barrehgaon
Beheeah
37,000
Bhojpore
Total
23,700
"
Of this quantity, the proportion under cultivation is found from enquiry to have been about 14 annas (sixteenths) or 22,218 acres , of which 10 annas or 18,886 acres , and 6 annas or 6,331 ) acrea, were respectively lost and saved . The yield per acre is taken at 8 рисса maunds, valued on the average at 1 rupee a maund ; so the entire loss inay be estimared at 15,886 x 8 x 1 rupee = 1,11,090 Rupeeв .
11. In ascertaining the out -turn or the loss occasioned to crops , or the sufficiency or otherwise of the food staples for the inhabitants of a District, actual measurements are out of the question. And landholders and cultivators have not, as a rule , the capacity to realize questions of this nature that are put to them in a concrete form : info: mation can only be elicated from them in a shape with which they are familiar . Every cultivator is aware of the prospects of the crops in his village , and most of them can form a fair estimate of the different annas or proportions in which the several crops are sown, and of the annas or proportion they bear to a full yield . Could this information be applied to the statistical data regarding culturable area and population that we possees , an approximation sufficiently accurate for the purpose and useful in the extreme mightbe arrived at. This , however , must be patent to all, and the facts are nothing new . How is the required information to be collected from each village ? Where is the establishment to be found that couldbe entrusted with the work ? The answers to these questions constitute the main features of the proposal above referred to . and which I beg most respectfully to submit for consideration .
12. The subordinate establishment of the Opium Department is the agency whose aid I would recommend to be enlisted for the work . The subordinates are distributed over the length and breadth of the District ( and equally so over the entire Patna Division , ) and are closely [ 199 ]
connected with the agricultural classes from whom the required information is proposed to be elicited . Poppy is grogrown throughout Shahabad . Every cluster of few villages has its Kottadurs ; these are grouped undunder Zilladars , whewho again are distributed under the control ofGomashtashtas in charge ofof KoteKotees most conveniently situated over the District, wis . , at Arrah , Gurhiney, Shapoor. Dhungai , Bhojpore, Chowsah , Bhubbooah , and Sasseram. A better establishment and a better distribution could not be wished for. The men comprising it , apart trom the interest they naturally take in agricultural matters , are obliged from the nature of their duties to visit the lands of the several villages during their inspections and measure- ments of the puppy cultivation . They cannot help being thoroughly conversant with the state of the crops ; and , described in the proportions of a rupee or annas , the subject forms their most interesting topic of conversation . The more closely I have considered the matter , the more feasible does it appear. During the months of September and January, the Gomashtas , Zilladars , and Kottadars asseinble at Arrah for their first and second advances, and again in March and April they attend for the weighments : the time could not be better arranged with reference to the Bhadye , Aughunnee, and Rubbee crops . The men necessarily spend hours and days at the Sub Deputy Agent's Office , waiting to be called up in turn. Here is an opportunity to explain to them , during their leisure hours, the object of the enquiries which it is proposed to make, and to enlist the interest of the Kottadars and Zilladars , in a subject that their experience of the distress that lately prevailed throughout the District will bring home to them ; to instruct the homashlas regarding the tabulated form in which the required information is to be compiled, and to check and control the proper working of the whole . Those of the subordinates to whom I spoke on the subject have quite understood and appreciated the object of the enquiries which it is proposed to make ; and my experience in compiling the tabulated statement referred to above enables me to say with confidence that there will be no great difficulty in getting the Gomashtas to submit somewhat similar statements * containing the Last year my own Gomashtas prepared the returns with ease and readiness . required information . These again will require to the checked and condensed into a convenient shape something in the form of the tabulur statement submitted with my letter* ; and it remains to see how this can be done . Of course the Collector would be immediately responsible for the preparation and general accuracy of the return, but he would need assistance. Hie Office Establishment could not at first be trusted to do the work , and, as a rule , he himself has not the time nor the practice to work out the necessary calculations and details . He would require the assistance of one who was familiar with figures , and practised in forms and classification ; and it is not unlikely that Officers with the needful capacity and aptitude, and ho could undertake the duty , may be found in the Division . As regards Shahabad, I should be glad of the opportunity to re- cast , and to bring the statistical return already prepared up to the degree of accuracy that I perceive to be possible . Once this is done carefully, the work of the succeeding years will be greatly, simplified .
13. Some difficulty may arise from the fear that the work proposed for the opium subordinates will interfere with their more legitimate duties , but I do not think that such objection can really exist ; and apart from the fact of the Collector being also ex - ościo Deputy Opium Agent , and difficulty between the respective offices , would imply a want of tact and consideration that it is premature to apprehend .
14. In deseribing the late flood it may be useful to collect agether the details relating to the river , however common and well known they may be It willbe seen from the " Map of the drainage Bason of the Soane " attached to Colonel Dickens " Canal Project ," that the "river rises along with the Nerbudda and Mahanuddee, on the elevated plateau of Central India, near Ummarkuutuk, and 325 miles through a high rocky tract," before it shews in more civilized parts, and enters the valley of the Ganges in Shahabad. The area of the country which drains into the Soane is immense , being " nearly 23,000 square miles . Its tributaries all flow from the south , and comprise the rivers Koel , Kunhur , Rehund , Bijul, Goput, and Banas. On the north the drainage area is limited to the steep slopes and precipices of the Kymore range, along which the river runs ; so that the opinion partially mutertained at Arrah , as to the river being affected by rain - fall on the portion of the Kymore range in Shahabad , is altogether erroneous . The drainage of this part flows away from the Soane, towards the north , and gives rise to the Kao, the Koodra, the Doorgowty, the Sora, the Kora , the Gonhooah and the Karrumnassa Nuddees , all of which flow through Shahabad , and occasion floods , perhaps as extensive, and certainly more devastating , than that of the Soane. For eight months in the year the greater part of the river in its course through Shahabad is dry . To the spectator standing near the middle, amidst the glare and refraction of a hot day, the prospect assumes the appearance of a narrow channel bounded on either side by a vast sandy desert , nor is it improbable that a mirage mightbe seen to complete the illusion . Sudden is the change to which the river is liable . A few days of continuous rain on the great central plateau- in the course of a few hours , oftentimes in the darkness of a single night and the river bursts into the valley of the Ganges in all its might and grandeur. 15. Such was the case with the present flood . On the evening of Thursday, the 19th , the river in the neighbourhood of Arrah was lower than its ordinary low water level. During [ 200 ]
the night it rose some thirteen feet , and overflowed the bank so rapidly, that on Friday morning, before intimation of the flood could be brought to the station, the water made its appearance, washed down the Sudder Distillery, and inundated the town and station.
16. At 6 o'clock in the morning, as we rode through the town , there was not the slighest symptom of the flood , nor did the Gangey nuddee shew any unusual rise ; by 8 a'clock the water, it seems , appeared on the outskirts of the town ; by 8 o'clock the Sudder Distillery was washed down; and immediately afterwards the flood poured in from the direction of the Chutpokur bridge , Moteetolah , and the village of Eniyet , and spread over the place with astonishing rapidity.
By noon a great part of the town was submerged, principally in Mohullahs Mahadewah, Nowadah , Averpool , Sheikwully Musjid , and Kurnmutolah ; the lanes leading through the town'were from two to three feet under water ; and many of the kulcha houses were washed down. The main street passing the Jain, from the Charitable Dispensary to the cross roads south of the Thannah, presented the appearance of a navigable channel along which the water flowed with markedmarked velocity at a depth ofof about two and a half feet. Great excitement prevailed throughout the city , and to some extent in the station . The public offices were closed ; all ordinary business was stopped ; and the flood, and the precautions necessary to take aguinst it, occupied universal attention .
TheRailwayilway Station was a point of attraction to most of the officials and European residents , of whom, scarcely one of the former, strange to say, had been long enough in the place to witness the flood of 1864. As far as the eye could reach , the country along the line was completely submerged, and presented the appearance of a vast sheet of angry water . Early in the day, notice of the flood had been tolegraphed to the Railway Officers at Dinapore and Beheeah . Reports came in that the embankments that had been thrown up after the flood of 1864 to protect the Railway bridges from injury were being washed away . The slopes of the bank itself were being slightly cut away in places ; and as the flood continued to rise, fears were very generally entertained that in case the flood was of long continuance, these injuries might increase, and affect the safety of the line . Remedial measures were promptly applied by Messrs.Thomson and Fox, who lost no time in bringing their ballast train, laden with railway chairs, to bear on the bridges that were being injured, and so to fill in the encroachments that were forming behind the wingwalls of the bridges . Fortunately, however, the inundation had now ( o'clock P. M. ) almost reached its maximum, and it remained stationary until 11 o'clock P. M., when it commenced to fall steadily . It was known that between the morning and the evening the water had lowered one foot on the gauge at the Soane bridge ; also it was believed that the river had subsided to within its banks , so by nightfall confidence was in a measure restored ; but in case the river should rise again, perhaps higher still as it did in 1864 , each Railway bridge was carefully guarded and watched during the night . But the river continued to fall rapidly, and the flood bad past .
18. As was the case with the previous inundation, the view along the line of Railway presented a panorama, which , for grandeur of scene and the practical study of the question, oun caroly be equalled . Each bridge was a mark whereon the fury of the waters seemed to concentrate with accumulating force, and forined a stream which , as it dushed tumultuously through the bridge,shot away from the surrounding water with an accelerated speed . The highest clear afflux , i. e , the difference between the level of the water above and below a bridge was 24 inches within one inelt of that of 1864 ; and the corresponding velocity was 11 feet per second. Since the flood of 1864 the bridges on this portion of the ling have been cleared out down to the inverts, and securely protected below , at a cost of about a lakh and a balt of rupees ; and in the case of the Nugree , the Syur, and the Jummeerah bridges, the waterway has so far been undoubtedly increased , because the bottoms of these bridges, which previously stood above the beds of their respective nuddees , have now been considerably lowered, and allow fice play to the water . But the experience of the late flood , short though it was in its duration , shews that the increased waterway is scarcely appreciable ; and, however impregnable the bridges have been rendered, an element of weakness remains in the fact of the erosion , to which the slopes behind the wingwalls are liable . The embankments that were thrown out after the flood of 1864 on the upper side of the bridges to protect these slopes , originated doubtless in the desire to utilize the earth that was removed from the bottom of the bridges, and so far they have answered admirably ; but, as was to be expected , some of them were washed away ; and protection of a more permanent naturo is perhaps advisable . This , however, is a subject on which it is unnecessary for me to enlarge . After the flood of 1864 , Mr. Power made a personal inspection of the several bridges that were affected by it , and the necessary precautions , so far as the circumstances appeared to require , were of course adopted . 1 only venture, with much diffidence and respect, to submit far consideration those circumstances connected with the late flood that my presence on the spot enabled me to observe ; and should these tend to shew that increased waterway is needed, the cost of the protective measures that may be deduced from the experience of each successive flood will be saved, and the first expenditure , however large, will in the end be the sufest and most economical . The highest flood rise of the Soane seems to be involved in some obscurity, for if I remember rightly the amount of water way that was determined originally [ 201 ]
for the section of the line under remark, has fallen considerably short of the requirements that have since appeared necessary . It may therefore be useful to describe the effect and extent of the flood on the left bank of the river across the Railway : also the spill across the right bank in connection with the new road from Baroon to Behta ; and to note and compare the several heights to which the greatest,floods of tire Soupe are known to have attained.
See detailed Map No. 2.
19. Proceeding up the left bank of the river* from the Soane bridges at Koelwar , the first spill occurs at about 600 yards above the bridge and between it and Dundeenh ( outside the Railway Company's land) through a breach , about 80 yarls in length , in the embankment constructed by the Company ; and again, just below Dundeeah two similar breaches occur, about 140 yards in length . At Dundeeah the course andand action of the river are deserving of attention To this point, from Nansagur, distant about 8 miles , the river flows through a series of long reaches , on the concave bends of which the current impinges with great force, so much so , that in places the bank is being cut away , and the river has a tendency to encroach on the Shahabad side . Reference to paragraph 3 of my last report will shew how this circumstance tends to increase the overflow across Shahabad , and I shall have occasion presently to add to my previous remarks on the subject . Immediately south of Dundeeah the river just overtopped the bank, and also opposite Farrungpore , where it breached the road that adjoins in two places : but in either case the spill was comparatively trifling .
1. Under the head of a talook, marked Rampore on thethe Map,Map between miles IV . andand V. , Miles IV. and V. of detailed Map . are two villages , Kurza and Beheyarrah . About four hundred yards above the latter village, is the site of one of the two places where the river principally overflows . Here is the valley referred to in paragraph 3 of my last report that strikes out at right angles from the river, and leads into the Siyarrah Nullah, under the Railway between Jummeerah and Arrain The Soane flows along an elevated ridge, and the country shews a steady fall of about 2 feet in the mile direction of the Ganges . In places , on the margin of the river, the descent is more " rapid, so that as the river encroaches on the land in the manner noticed after the flood of 1864 , a lower level is attained, and the overflow of the river is proportionately increased. During the flood of 1864, at the spot where the valley emerges from the river, the bank was cut away, to the extent of 150 yards , and this year the injury has increased .
II . There can be little doubt that the encroachment is of long continuance and extensive, so much so as to bave pro luced a marked alteration in the course of the stream . Referring to the detailed Map and its margınal sketch annexed hereto , it will be seen that at this place, not only an extensive sand bank previously existed on the Shahabad side of the river , but there was considerable space, some 200 yards , between the river bank and the road that ran nearly parallel with it . Now the deep channel of the river has taken the place of the sand bank ; the stream has so encroached on the land as to out away the road ; and the overflow rivals that of the much dreaded Tirkowl and Sundais spill , the fear of which after the flood of 1848 was so great that the local authorities resolved to bund the river in its vicinity, as described in paragraphs 5 and 21 of my last report . III . Without intending to propose any place of embankments that would interfere with the natural course of the river, I may mention that the objections that exist with reference to the Tirkowl and Sundais bund do not apply to the overflow at Beheyarrah. At the latter place, an increased overflow has resulted from the encroachment of the river and from the destruction of the bank which previously acted as a barrier between the river and the adjoining country ; and the construction of an embankment that would remedy this evil might be advisable . It would not require to be much more than a mile indength , and its enda could be made to fit into masonry shoes, so as to protect them from the action of the water that might work round them. It might also be advisable to check the tendency which the tiver has to fur- ther effcroachment , by throwing out a spur that would induce the reformation of a sandbank on the Shahabad side, and turn the river to its former course ; and only that the contingency is a most remote one, the possible harm which the proximity of the encroachment to the Sonne bridge might entail , would invest the remedial measures with a much greater importance than they would otherwise possess .
Miles VI . and VII.
IV . Midway between Khungaon and Bishunpore the river broke over the bank with considerable force , and carried a four hundred mound boat that was laden with salt for Nassrygunge, some three hundred yards across country and over the road , into a young mango tope, where it settled without much injury.
V. Between Bishoonpore and Ackgaon , miles VII . and VIII . , and again at Narainpore between miles IX . and X. , the river just topped the bank here and there for a length in each case of about a quarter of a mile, but without doing much injury, save to the road which it scoured to a foot in depth.
VI . To Nansnugur , miles X and XI . , the country was unaffected by the flord .
VII, Just above Nansaugur the river slightly overtopped the bank, and signs of the flood extend to Ray peorah , but to comparatively small extent .
VIII . From Raypoorah to Tirkowl is the strip of low land, or valley, which it was proposed to emo embauft; and this gives origin to the well known Kirkowl bund, which however was never completed . The overflow here was perhaps even greater than that at Boheyarrah (already described ) , and destroyed a rich crop of Jenara , Bajra and Kodon that stood (over a quarter mile square) between the bund and the river . The valley strewn with jungle wood, [ 202 ]
amounting to about 5,000 maunds, brought down by the flood . The damage to houses along the river bank , throughout the course of the flood, has been remarkably slight ; and the sites of the villages appear to have been selected with reference to a higher* This remark applies equally to the town of Arrah, where the sircumstance is very markod. flood than any of those that have yet been recorded .
IX . Nom Sundais to Nonore, between miles XIV . and XXII . , the overflows , where they occurred, in places here and there , were merely local , and flowed mostly along the Soane road, which is hollow from long wear and tear , and about eighteen inches below the level of the country. Beyond Nonore the flood is not worth noticing .
20. Leaving the left bank of the river I crossed to Suhar to ascertain, while the marks of the flood were still visible, whether the river was liable to overflow to any extent along its right bank It will be remembered that this point was mooted during the flood of 1864 , and was re'erred to in paragraphs 22 and 23 of my report . 1964 My inspection enables me to shew beyond doubt that from Massowrah downwards , the river spills extensively across the bank ; though the line of new road alluded to in the report did little or nothing to prevent the free escape of the flood , for where the section was not too low to provoke the overflow and so to allow it to pass quietly away , the water cut through the road and made passages for itself, as will appear from my notes of inspection appended hereto.
21. The late flood affords an excellent opportunity to define the waterway required for the Baroon and B. hta road alluded to above, and it woulit wouldbe pity if the present cold season is allowed to pass before the necessary details are collected. In its present state the road is of very doubtful utility, for while it has arisen above the simplicity and corresponding advantages of the old fair-weather line , it fails to surmount the obstacle it has provoked , and the flood has so breached and scoured it as oftentimes to render the route almost impracticable . The road is a local one, but under construction by the Department Public Works . Apparently it is intended to connect the Grand Trunk Road and the country in that direction with the Railway at Behta ; and the demand for such a communication must soon increase, as the Sonne Irrigation works at Deheree are proceeded with . It is evident from the effects of the late flood that the bridging of the last eight or nine miles [between Kunpah and Behta] will be a work of great expense ; and it is to be regretted that road was undertaken without consulting the local Officers , whose experience of the country might have afforded useful information on the subject . The circumstance affords an instance of the anomalous and irregular working of the Local Funds ; for the Rupees 10.000, that were taken this year from the General Fund Assignments of Shahabad, to be devoted to the Baroon and Behta road , would have sufliced to complete the line then under constructon from the Railway at Arrah to Suhar, whence there is a paralled road along the left bank of the Soane to Deheree, opposite Baroon. The Rupers 10,000 could go no way to improve the former , whereas it would have sufficed amply to complete the latter, which traverses a line of country proved to be well above flood level, is free from local obstacles, and answers all the required purposes .
This agreement is only a coincidence, for the figures me taken roughly , and meant chiefly to shew the proportions of the several spills.
22. To allow of an approximation , however crude, of the area of the overflow of the Soane, I had a rough section taken of the valley at Beheyarrah . The sectional area so affected amounts to about 23,000 square feet , and the hydraulic mean depth is five feet. The fall in the country along the Nuggree Nullah is two feet in the mile nearly and adopting Estelwein's formula where velocity , fall of country per mile in feet, and hydraulic mean depth, 2fd= 4024 , or a velocity of four feet per second , which gives agives a discharge of 92,000 feet per second . A like quantity may be assumed for the discharge at Tirkowl , and the same for the sum of the several minor overflows , equal 92,000 x 3 = 2,76,000 feet per second, being the total discharge of the flood across Shahabad . It will be seen from paragraph 15 of my, last report that the area of the waterway under the Railway that was similarly affected by the flood of 1864 amounts to 24,266 square feet ; and applying to this the highest afflux of the late flood , viz., 24 inches, and the corresponding velocity of 114 fest per second, the total discharge per second is found to be 0,75,014 feet, which agrees very nearly with that found above.
28. If the floods of 1864 and 1867 could be depended on as being the greatest force that islikely to be brought to bear against the Railway , there would be nothing to apprehend in regard to insufficient waterway ; but my enquiries on the subject enable me to shew that the Soane is liable to a much greater overflow than those that have been recorded since the commencement of the Railway ; and the highest rise of " 25 feet" shewn [interrogatively ] in page 8 of Colonel Dickens" " Canal Project", and refurred to in paragraph 17of my last report, is no longer aszimprobable as it appeared .
24 In 1845 Dr. Hooker travelled up the Soane valley into Mirzapore . At page 40 of his " Himalayan Journal ," Vol . 1, published shortly afterwards , he refe's to the Akberpors encamping ground , as follows :-" At the foot of the crowned spur is the village of Akberpore, where we encamped in a mango tope ; it occupies some pretty undulating lime stone hills,. amongst which several streams flow from the amphitheatre to the Soane ." And he adds in a
"During offir two days' stay hore I had "the advantage of the socioty of Mr. C. B. Davies , who was our guide during sono "rumbles in the neighbourhood , and to whose "experience, founded on the best habits of " observation, I am indebted for much infor . "mation.

foot note, bearing reference to the mango tope just mentioned . " On the 24th June 1848 the Seane roso to an unprecedented height and laid this grove of mangos three feet under water. " The flood occurred shortly after Dr. Hooker's departure, and the information regarding it was supplied at the time of the occurrence by Mr. Charles Davies, of Akberpore , who witnessed it .
[ 203 ]
The mango tope still forms the encamping ground of the place ; indeed, there is scarcely any other availablavailable in the neighbourhood ; and at this moment it holds the encampment of the Commissioner and the officials of the District . The overflow of the Soane is stated to have risen to a height of three feet in this tope; but to avoid any error that might be expected from a general description, I have gone carefully over the ground with Mr. Davies, and he has pointed out to me to a nicety the height to which the water attained on one of the walks in the garden attached to the factory .bungalow which adjoins . Hore we arrive at clear and definite information ; and I would recommend that the spot be marked by a stone-pillar shewing the height of the flood ; or better still , if the pillar be so constructed as to shew respectively the heights of the floods of 1848, 1864, and 1867 , each of which has been noted by Mr. Davies .
26. I have carefully levelled from the spot in the garden indicating the flood rise of 1848, to the highest flood levels of 1864 and 1867 as noted by Mr. Davies on the south - east corner of the fencing round his house ; and I find that the rise of 1848 was 3.48 ( 3 decimal 48) feet higher than the extraordinary flood of 1864 , which latter was 4 inches higher than the rise of 1867 .
27. The flood of 1864 attained the height of 20 feet 7 inches on the gauge at the Soane Bridge, and the overflow across the Railway was the greatest on record and attracted considerable attention . The corresponding rise this year was ever higher, viz ., 21 feet , but the overflow and the flood generally were slightly less , the excess rise at the Soane bridge being accounted. for by the swollen condition of the Ganges . Had the flood of the Soane been a week earlier, we should have experienced the simultaneous flooding of the Soane and the Ganges ; but as it was, the Ganges fortunately had fallen about 8 feet when the waters of the Soane came down, so that the latter were not more penned buck than the excess just alluded to .
28. It may be interesting to describe the flood in its course through Shahabad. From Akberpore Mr. Charles Davies writes :- " The Soane commenced rising here about 2 A. м . on the 19th September ; reached maximum near 11 P. M. of the same day; remained stationary for nearly an hour, then gradually falling had subsided within its banks by 5 r . M. of the 20th September . With exception of the Serha rice of four or five Mouzahs in this Pergunnah, not much injury has ensued ; the Dehri concern , however, has lost much indigo . The greatest amount of destruction has occurred between Kadhwan and Soupura (in Behar) above the embouchure of the Koel. "
II . At Deheree 23 miles lower down the river the Register of the gauge kept by Mr. Long , the Engineer in charge of the Soane Irrigation Works , showshows the following results, On the morning of the 18th , the river was at its

Up to 9 A. M. the river 312-84 rose at the rate of two-thirds of a foot an hour ; then to 6 P. M. , at the rate of five inches an hour ; having 309-51 risen in all 65 feet in the course of the day.

29. The alteration which occurs in the flow of the Gangey Nuddee during high floods is worthy of record . The Nuddee receives a tributary A. , just below the bridge, and another B. , two miles lower down ; where the streams turns to the nerth, directly towards the Ganges . During high floods, the volume of water brought down by the lower affluent is so greatly in excess of the discharging capacity of the main channel, that the water is penned back , as in the case of the Mississippi and Ohio; and the direction of the flow of slre Nuddee is actually reversed, in the same manner probably, that the " Arve, when swollen by freshets , drives back the waters of the Rhine as far as the lake of Geneva . " The upper affluent A. adds to the flow of the reversed current which attains a velocity of about 9 feet per second. The Nuddee flowed in this manner from 9 A. м . of the 20th, until the morning of the 21st , when it changed to its natural course .
As I am on the subject , it may not be out of place to mention a remarkable instance, quoted from memory, for which I am indebted to Mr. Charles Davies of Akberpore , of the penning back of the water of the Soane, as observed by Colonel Dickens , when taking levels, many years ago, for his Soane Canal Project . At Bandoo Ghaut, two miles below the embouchure of the Koel , the Soane is comparatively narrow , and confined on the right by the high land of Kubrah, and on the left by the Oollee hill ; and on the occasion of a flood , Colonel Dickens observed a deviation , as great as 17 feet , from the ordinary levels of the river , between Teleup and Bandoo , a distance of twenty - six miles : It is not improbable, that where the Soane receives the larger of its affluents all in high flood, a series of terraces are occasioned by the penning back of the water ; and this theory would go a certain way to account for the traditions that are current along its course as to the sudden and overwhelming nature of the floods to which the river is occasionally liable .
31. I have shown in paragraph 27 now, though the flood level of 1867 was higher at the Soane bridge than the rise of 1864 , yet that the flood itself was generally less . The difference is considerable and as follows :-
At Gauge at Soane bridge flood of 1867 was 5 inches higher than that of 1864 . At Gangey bridge, Arrah, and in the town itself the flood was 6 inches lower .
At Deheree, as observed by Mr. Daunt , who tallies with Mr. Long , the Engineer of the Soane Irrigation Works, the flood was 6 inches lower .
At Akberpore as noted (rougkly) on the fencing round his house 44 inches lower. 32. It was pointed out to me by Mr. Long that a stone tablet, fixed into the causeway at Deheree by the Department Public Works to mark the flood of 1864 makes the rise one foot higher than the late flood: perhaps it would be advisable to remove this tablet.
The Gauge at the Soane bridge is divided into fourths of a foot , which , owing to their distance from the observer , appear like inches ; and at night I have seen endeavours made to read them by suspending a bull's - eye lantern over the pier with a rope, which , as it twisted around, rendered the operation liable to error . As it was the first intimation of the late overflow was communicated I believe from Arrah ; and in a case where protective measures are required to follow so rapidly on the appearance of a flood, it might be advisable to make the Gauge more generally accurate and accessible .
In conclusion I venture to hope that the delay that has occurred in the submission of this report will be accounted for by the details now submitted, which I have only been enabled to complete within the last few days , since I accompanied the Commissioner and yourself up the valley of the Soane.

Correspondence connected with a complaint preferred by the Calcutta Trades ' Association that the operations of the Calcutta School Book Society which receives a grant- in -aid from Govern- ment , interfere with private Trade.
From J. LINDLEY, Esq. , Secretary, Calcutta Trades' Association , to the Under- Secretary to the Government of Bengal ,-( dated Trades' Rooms , the 17th September 1867. )
I HAVE the honor herewith to forward copy of a correspondence relative to the grant- in- aid to the Calcutta School Book Society , and shall feel obliged if you will lay the same before His Honor the Lieutenant - Governor at your early convenience .
From J. LINDLEY, Esq. , Secretary, Calcutta Trades' Association , to the Secretary to the Government of Bengal ,-(dated Trades' Rooms , the September 1867. )
(a. ) Memorial dated 12th September 1861. (8. ) Letter dated 6th October 1864. (c.) Letter dated 10th February 1866. (d.) Letter dated 10th January 1865.
I AM instracted by the Master and Committee of the Calcutta Trades ' Association to draw the attention of His Honor the Lieutenant -Governor to a correspondence , (copy of which is herewith annexed, ) with reference to the grant - in - aid allowed to the Calcutta School Book and Vernacular Literature Society . In October 1864 the Association addressed a memorial (a . ) to His Excellency the Governor General on the subject , which memorial was transferred to the Government of Bengal (6. ) for disposal . In February 1865 the Association was informed (c. ) that the Lieutenant - Governor reserved his opinion until he had been able to refer to a Report of the School Book Society then in the press ; at the same time copy of a letter (1) from the Director of Public Instruction , to the Junior Secretary to the Go- vernment of Bengal, was forwarded to the Association for information . In March 1866 the Association asked the Lieutenant -Governor ( e. ) for an expression of his opinion on the sub- ject , and was informed (f. ) that he still reserved his opinion until able to refer to the Report of the Society for 1865, then supposed to be nearly ready for issue . This Report has been Letter dated 6th March 180в. Letter dated 26th March 1866 ,
for many months before the public, but His Honor's opinion has not yet been made known . TheAssociation, therefore, beg to bring the question before His Honor the present Lieu- tenant-Governor, and , in doing so, would add a few words to the memorial of 1864, and in reply to the letter from the Calcutta School Book Society to the Director of Public Instruc- tion, inasmuch as the Association cannot agree with him in thinking that " the Society's answer completely disposes of the allegations contained in the memorial."
In Mr. Atkinson's letter ( D.) it is stated that the Calcutta Tradesmen " represent that the low prices at which the Calcutta School Book and Vernacular Literature Society sell their books interfere with private enterprise ,"e, " & c. A reference to the original memorial , paragraph 10 , will shew that no such representation was made ; on the contrary, it is distinctly stated that the Association does not wish to interfere with the sale of the books of the Cal- cutta School Book and Vernacular Literature Society .
The Association is of opinion that , in paragraph 5 of the Society's letter, a statement is made, amounting to a confession, that the allegations of the Trades' Association are correct , inasmuch as it is there stated that the grant of public money enables them to " defray the expense of conveying books to the interior of districts with all attendant risks and losses, " a privilege which is not at the disposal of the regular trader. With reference to the paragraph under notice, the Association finds from the Report of the Society for 1863 that the Govern- ment grant to the School Book Society's Department alone (with interest on Government Securities) amounts to the sum of Rupees 7,992 , whilst the whole cost of rent and establish- ment amounts to Rupees 6,084, nearly Rupees 2,000 less than the income derived from the public purse ; they also observe that, in the years 1863-64-65 , the sum of Rupees 1,725 only was expended in the purchase of copy - rights , &c . , (a charge on which considerable stress has been laid ,) being Rupees 575 annually, or rather less than one month's income from the grant - in - aid ; in other words , the Government grant and interest for 1863 more than covers the cost of rent and establishment for that year , and the cost of copy - rights , &c. , for three years .
With paragraph 6 of the Society's letter the Association entirely agrees , provided that the voluntary organization be adhered to ; but we maintain that it is not, inasmuch as the grant does not come only out of the pockets of the " educated members of various classes ," but out of the pockets of all tax- payers .
Paragraph 7 of the Society's letter. The Association is not aware that there are any insuperable obstacles in the way of Calcutta book - sellers and publishers supplying books in the Mofussil , more especially were the same assistance rendered to them that is now extended to the School Book Society, through the Inspectors of Schools in the various districts .
With reference to the books of the Sanscrit Press , the Association thinks it hardly probable that the Managers of that Institution would ever think of opening agencies of their own in the Mofussil so long as the Society sells their books under the present Kegvla- tions . The Society receives from the Press a trade discount of 15 per cent . , out of this sum [ 207 ]
the Society pays the cost of carriage to Mofussil stations, runs all risks of loss and damage , and pays an Agent 64 per cent , for selling them, besides a commission to the Secretary, an arrangement which pays the Sanscrit Press much better than the opening of Mofussil agencies of their own would do .
The Association maintains that paragraph 9 of the Society's letter proves nothing more than that the objects for which the grant was originally given are no longer in existence ; that which the Society can do in the way of suppyling English school books , the trade can also do. In connection with this part of the subject , the Association wouldbe glad to know what proportion of the books imported from England are sold through the Mofussil agencies , and the proportion sold to bazar dealers in Calcutta .
In the Society's Report for 186 and 1865 the following appears :-
1864 .
1865 .
Rs .
Rs .
21,204
31,210 " Sales by Deputy Inspectors and Agents ...
" Ready money Pales in the Depository, and sales to pri-
33,370
vateparties"
33,106
Unless the Committee of the Association are wrongly informed , they believe the principal portion of the receipts for " sales in the Depository" will be found to be for books imported from Ingland, and sold to bazar dealers in Calcutta .
The Association, notwithstanding the opinion of the Director of Public Instruction , respectfully maintains that the reply of the Society does not dispose of the allegations con- tained in the original memorial . It has been shewn that the Government grant for one year covers the cost of rent and establishment for that year, together with the cost of copy- rights for three years ; and further than this it is known that the Society makes a considerable profit apon its own publications , and that they are not, as is generally represented, sold at a very trifling sum over cost price.
The Association would also beg to draw His Honor's attention to a paragraph from an advertisement just issued by Messrs . Longman , Green & Co. , Publishers , from which it would appear thatbooks, other than school books are to be obtained through the School Book Society . The firm abovementioned advertise the issue of " The British India classes," which the following are nearly ready :- Scott's Lady of the Lake, cantos I, II , and III .
Thomson's Seasons
Johnson's Life of Dryden .
They state that orders will be received by the Government Central Book Depôts of Bom- bav, Madras , Allahabad , Lahore , Bangalore, and Nagpore, also by the Calcutta School Book and Vernacular Literature Society .
In conclusion I am directed to request His Honor's attention to this subject , a subject which to the trade is a most important one, and the Association respectfully hopes that the Government grant - in- aid " may ," as expressed in the original memorial, " either be withdrawn, or continued conditionally on its being applied only in promotion of the objects for which the Society was formed, wiz . , the preparation , publication, and cheap or gratuitous supply of books and materials useful in schools ," & c .

From J. B KNIGHT, ESQ . , Master , for the Committee and Members of the Calcutta Trades' Association , to His Excellency the Viceroy and Governor General of India in Coun- cil, the Memorial of the Calcutta Trades' Association, ( dated Trades ' Rooms , the 12th September 1864. ) HUMBLY SHкшигп ,
THAT your Memorialists have seen in the public newspapers of the 26th ultimo, an advertisement headed " Calcutta School Book and Vernacular Literature Society," in which it is stated that the " Society now imports books in English suisuited for all school classes ** at rates below English prices " In the same adver- tisement it is stated that " the Society is aided by Government , and its profits are devoted to the purchase of copy - nghts , chiefly of Vernacular school books ." * * * * * * *
That in a leading article in the lurkarn of the same date, it is distinctly stated , evidently on authority , " that thesebooks are offered at 10 per cent . under London prices, " and the Englishman also draws attention to the fact in these words , school books can be obtained from the Society at a far lower rate than at any of the Calcutta book sellors ."
That it appears from the last Report of the Society that no less a sure than Rupees 6,270 per annum have been givenby Government for the support of the School Book Society , in addition to the sum of Rupees 1,800 ir aid of the publication of Vernacular literature .
That your Memorialists find , from the published reports of the Society, that the average annual amount received by sales of books is a little more than Rupees 30,000 , so that the Government grant is equal to a subsidy of 20 per cent
That while your Memorialists tully recognise the importance of encouraging the spread of Vernacular literature of a wholesome character among the Natives of India, they are strongly [ 210 ]
6 ciation, that the publishers or booksellers of Calcutta are not yet in a condition to supply the place which the Society occupies in this respect . The largest and best furnished Establish- ment for the supply of Bengali School books is the Sanscrit Press of Calcutta . Its stock 19 extensive, and its profit by the sale of books is large ; yet it is not in a condition to have an agency of its own in the interior of districts . Notwithstanding the excellence of its publi- cations, both in matter and style , the Agents of this Society , through, the Society itself, are the main sougees whence nine -tenths of our schools draw their supplies of these works .
Vide Mr. Gordon Young's letter , dated 11th June 1855 , and the Society's, reply, dated 25th idem.
8. The Committee deem it necessary to dwell on this feature of the Society's operations , and it may be observed that the advantage of the existence of such an organization was made capparent beyond controversy, when, in 1856, the Government Book Agency was abolished, and the Society was invited to undertake the supply of books for the Educational Department , and to conduct generally the business then carried on by the Book Agent . The terms to which the Society then agreed, by which it contemplated no pecuniary profit to itself, and through which it has re- ceived no very appreciable return in money, were mainly fixed in consideration of the support which it already received from the Government.
9. The Committee have yet to deal with the gravamen of the complaint contained in the letter of the Trades ' Association , on which a report is requested. The Association object not so much to the preparation as to the importation of English books by the Society , and to their sale at low prices . They state that the Government grant was originally given to aid in the preparation as well as the circulation of English and Vernacular literature suited to the Natives of this country. The Committee readily admit that one of the objects ofGovern- ment was to aid in the production of local English school books , but the fact is that, while several of the books first prepared by the Society are in improved editions still in circulation , others have of late years been superseded by improved works of the same character published in England, and better adapted to the present condition of education . These late and im- proved works it has been thought necessary to send for from England, instead of reproducing books which are inferior, and in some instances become unsaleable. The expansion of educa- tion in India, and the establishment of a University , render it absolutely imperative to import English school books of the very best standard to meet the demands of the Government and other schools .
109 As regards the sale of such English books at cheap prices , notwithstanding the opinion of the Association to the contrary, it is a fact that the Society can and does afford to import and sell English books at a percentage below London prices, without at all draw- ing on the Government grant.
11. The Society obtains books from the publishers in England at 33 per cent . below retail prices ; some of the publishers give an additional , copy of a book for every 25 copies without any extra charge . By giving up 10 per cent . of the retail price, and even allowing apercentage for packing and freight round the Cape , a margin of profit is retained , against which there is , however , a set - off by losses arising from unsaleable stock and irrecoverable debts, which the Society incurs in common with all booksellers .
12. But in this the Society does not perceive how they interfere with the legitimate profits of the trade . The booksellers of Calcutta can, if they think fit , make their own terms with the publishers and booksellers at home, on the same footing as the Society . Indeed, the Committee understand that the bookselling firms import their books on the same or even on better terms . But there is this difference between their objects and the objects of the Society. The booksellers of Calcutta necessarily look to profit, while the Society contemplates only the extension of the classing of education . The Society endeavours to cheapen school books , as it is the object of Government to cheapen edtication for the masses of the people, and the Society imports nothing but school books , while the profits of the trading firms of Calcutta range over the whole field of literature , intellectual , scientific, entertaining , moral, and religious.
13. The Committee desire me to add that, in the tender of terms which the Society made when taking over the Government Book Agency , as mentioned in a foregoing para- graph (8) of this letter, it was expressly stipulated that they should emply the Education Department with imported books at 10 per cent . below English retail prices . It may be added that when , in 1861 , the Finance Commission proposed that the Government grant should be discontinued, the proposal , after full consideration , was rejected.
14. The Committee further desire to draw your attention to their last Report for 1862 and 1863, sent to you in MS. with my letter No. 1734, dated 4th October last, as shew- ing the extent of the Society's operations . This Report is passing through the press . Printed copies will be sent to you as soon as they issue.
15. In conclusion the Committee , with every respect for the intelligent and enterprising members of the Trades ' Association , are of opinion that no substantial grievance has been made out by that body, and they trust that the Government may not think fit to comply with the prayer of the Memorialists .

December 1864, from the Society to my address , and to state that, in my opinion, the Society's answer completely disposes of the allegations of the Trades' Association.
The original enclosure of your communication under reply is herewith returned as requested.
From H. ANDREWS, Esq. , Secretary , Calcutta School Book and Vernacular Literature Society , to W. S. ATKINSON, ESQ ., M. A. , Director of Public Instruction,- (No. 2223, dated No. 12, Lall Bazar, Calcutta, the 24th December 1864. )

.. I AM directed by the Committee of the Calcutta School Book and Vernacular Literature Society to acknowledge the receipt of your docket No. 8197 , duted the 3rd ultimo, forwarding a memorial from the Trades' Association of Calcutta to His Excellency the Viceroy, which memorial appears to have been transferred for disposal to the Government of Bengal .

2. The Committee deem it necessary, in answer to the memorial , to explain clearly the objects and present position of the Society.
Baboo Peary Chaud Mitter.
3. These objects are chiefly , as stated in the Annual Report which is now about to, be published , the promotion of education by means of approved school books in the English and Vernacular languages , and also of a sound and healthy Ver- nacular literature . The Society aids the first of these objects by the preparation, publication, and cheap or even gratuitous supply of books and of educational apparatus, such as Maps, Plans , Globes, &c .; and it helps forward the second by publishing original works or translations of interesting and instructive English or other books into Bengali , and be compilations and adaptations suited to the Native mind . Its primary object is of course to provide , at the lowest price, suitable books for the use of schools in the several languages spoken all over the pro- vinces subject to the Presidency of Fort William, vie . , English , Urdoo , Hindi , Bengali, Ooryah , Khasia , & c .
Vido Society's letter to Government dated 10th April 1821 , and Mr. Secretary C. Lush- ington's reply in the General Department , dated 4th May 1821 .
4. In furtherance of this object the Society for years past has either itself prepared books or purchased the copy-right of books , or otherwise aided authors to print and publish books, of which the successive editions have had an extensive circulation . The Government grant dates as far back as the year 1821 ,
when Rupees 500 were sanctioned monthly in aid of the objects which the Society had then in view , and which it has ever since labored diligently to fulül.
5. This grant has enabled the Society not only to purchase the copy - right of new books , and to bear the expense of revising editions of old books which are still in demand, and which expenses are occasionally not inconsiderable, but it further enables the Society to defray the expense of conveying books to the interior of Districts with all attendant risks and losses, and to maintain a system of extensive and constantly increasing book agency in the interior , which could not exist and flourish , without the payment of a liberal percentage to the Agents ; by this means the expense of printing becomes the main element which regulates the sale price of books. The Committee think that books would not at present reach remote districts in the Mofussil under any other system, or by mere private enterprise .
6. The correct view to be taken of the Society is , the Committee would submit, not that of a rival Establishment to any hookselling firm, but as a voluntary public organization of the educated members of various classes of the community , engaged in disseminating , over a very wide surface , cheap school literature , subordinate to, and an essential part of, the general scheme of educating the people, which the Government and private Institutions both under- take. There is no proprietary body connected with the Society , who look to derive even the smallest pecuniary profit from its operations ; on the contrary , the members do not only labor gratuitously in superintending and directing the Society's affairs , but they have from time to time compiled new books for the Society, and up to a very recent period they helped it , by pecuniary donations .
7. The Committee remark with satisfaction that, during late years, there has been, a marked increase in the production of Vernacular books by Native anthors , which command an extensive sale ; so far a very important part of the objects of the Society has been accom- plished. It is , of course , imperative that the books in use should be unobjectionable in matter and sentiment , and to this end no books are encouraged or patronised by the Society, unless the authors, while they retain the copy- right of their books in their own hands, agree to submit them for the inspection of the Society , previous to insertion in the Society's annual catalogue . The Committee hold a decided opinion that no Native author can afford to place his books within the reach of the people in remote districts , or in districts other than the mere neighbourhood of Calcutta, or to dispose of them at prices within the means of the middle and lowerwer classes, if they are required to maintain an agency in the provinces for the purpose . They hold it us an indisputable fact, which meets thearguments of the Trades' Asso- [ 210 ]
6 ciation, that the publishers or booksellers of Calcutta are not yet in a condition to supply the place which the Society occupies in this respect . The largest and best furnished Establish- ment for the supply of Bengali School books is the Sanscrit Press of Calcutta. Its stock is extensive, and its profit by the sale of books is large ; yet it is not in a condition to have an agency of its own in the interior of districts . Notwithstanding the excellence of its publi- cations, both in matter and style, the Agents of this Society, through the Society itself, are the main sougees whence nine - tenths of our schools draw their supplies of these works .
