BURDWAN , the 21st March 1874 .

REPORT OF THE PROCEEDINGS OF A MEETING HELDAT THE DACCA BRAHMO SOMAJ HALL ON THE 3RD MARCH 1874, το KAISE SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR THE RELIEF OF THE PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM THE PRESENT SCARCITY OF FOOD .

A meeting was held this day, at 4 o'clock , in the Brahmo Somaj Hall , for the purpose of raising subscriptions for the relief of the peaple suffering from the present scarcity of food. The Divisional Commissioner , Mr. F. R. Cockerell, who presided, commenced the proceedings by addressing the meeting as follows :- GENTLEMEN The great calamity , which is the cause of our meeting here to - day , is of

such vast proportions , has been so long looming upon us from the distance, and is consequently so well known , not only to all whom I am addressing now , but probably to the entire population of the many large towns and villages throughout the eastern districts , where stores of grain are to be found , and to which the activity of the export trade has penetrated, pro-. claiming by the extent of its operations in the most significant and unmistakeable languago , the terrible fact of a great dearth prevailing over wide tracts of country , that no discussion is needed to demonstrate the certainty of there being a great work to be done , taxing all the strength of charitable effort ; but until very recently it was impossible to define with anything approaching to accuracy. the extent to which the population of the famine - stricken districts would be absolutely dependent on extraneous food - supplics .

The active enquiries of the Government officers , under the personal direction of Sir Richard Tomple , have resulted in the formation of very detailed estimates as to the number of persons throughout the most distressed tracts who will need to be supported, and the period for which they must be maintained .

A glance at the map amap affixed to youder wall will show you the exact position of the districts where the dearth of food is greatest ; they embraco a continuous area,' it may be said, from the Bogra district on the cast to that of Chumparun forming the western boundary, with the Nepal frontieras the northern and the River Ganges as the southern line of demarca- tion. I do not mean to say that distress is absolutely confined to this region , as, it is 674

[PART I. THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 1 , 1874 .

unhappily to be ract with in parts of the Gya and Monghyr districts , in places in Nuddea and the 24 - Pergunnahs , in Burdwan and Hooghly , and some parts of the Chota Nagpore Dıvı- sion. But by far the worst tract is that comprised in the districts north of the Ganges which I have just indicated, and of these the greatest need of relief is expected in great part of Chum- parun , Northern Tirhoot (especially in the Durbhunga , Seetamurhce and Mudhoobunnee sub- divisions) , the trans ,Gangetic portion of Bhagulpore ( especially in the country round Soopool ) , and the north- western portion of Dinagepore . In Tirhoot alone, out of an entire population of 4 milions, it is calculated that 25 perper cent. , or about one million persons , will hawillhave to be supported partially or wholly for a period of about seven months , and that the numbers to be supported for a like period in Chumparun and Sarun, respectively, will be about 400,000 and 280,000 . Such precise estimates do not appear yet to have been made in respect of Northern Bhagulpore or Dimagepore , but , on a rough calculation, the entire number requiring to be supported throughout Chumparun, Sarun , Tirhoot , Bhagulpore , Purncah and Dinage- pore, will be from 33 to 4 millions.

It is true that this estimate includes the large proportion of the population capable of labor, and who are , and will continue as long as possible, to be supplied with suitable labor; but amongst such vast numbers there must be a very great many unfit for any kind of labor, and long before the expiration of the period during which the people must be supported, the advent of the rainy season will render it difficult to find means of employing laborers profitably . Hence , the task of gratuitous relief in these particular tracts is stupendous , and one which the fuuds raised by charity , with whatover degree of zeal and unanimity its efforts might be put forth , could hardly be expected to cope with . The Government, anticipating this, have determined to accept the entire r sponsibility of the cost of maintaining life in these tracts, and leave us the field for employment of the means obtained from charity , the administration of relief in those districts or tracts in which the anticipated general distress and suffering is less severe , and also in all districts amongst those classes who are not accustomed to hard work, and who if left to themselves would undergo any privation, even to the sacrifice of life, rather than show themselves in the ranks of pauperisin .

This policy of the Government is clearly indicated and summarized in the final para- graph of a Notification just published by the Executive Relief Committee in Calcutta, which I will read to the meeting :-

" In districts , therefore , where the distress is now , or anticpated to become , very great , the aid given by the Central Famine Relief Committee will be restricted to grants to local committees for chantable purposes , Government providing labor and grain and undertaking the cost of the transport and of all establishments ; while in other parts , where high prices may press on the poorer classes , the Central Committee will establish a system of charitable relief through local committees . The result of the above is that in the very distressed districts the Government will provide both for the able-bodied working classes , and for those reduced to actual pauperism , while private liberality will be applied to the relief of those who are neither accustomed to hard work nor of a class to be treated as paupers , and whom alittle pecuniary or other aid , or the provision of light labor in their houses or at their doors , may save from pauperism , and enable to tide over the season of distress with self- respect and without loss of social position , or more than relievable suffering."

Here, then , we have set before us the objects to which such funds as our united efforts may succeed in raising are to be devoted , and I confidently predict that they will commend themselves to the strongest sympathies of at least the majority of those whom I am now addressing

Where almost the entire population has , through failure of crops , been deprived of its means of subsistence, the State will undertake the arduous duty and responsibility of doing , so far as may be practicable, all that is needful to preserve life and alleviate human suffering. But the distress , which is the re - ult of high prices of food , in places where grain is to be

hought, but at such abnormally high rates as to place the needful quantity Beyond the means of the poor but respectable classes , is the natural object for the expenditure of funds derived from charity ; and it will , I think ,be agreed that the line of demarcation , if I may so describe it, which has ben laid down between the field of action of the State relief operations and that of the Executive Committee , which has been formed as the direct agency for the adminis- tration of the relief fund raised by subscription, has been wisely determined . I am sure that the relief of those who, unaccustomed to hard labor, whether from their sex , caste, or social position , suffer more keenly , by reason of their natural inability to do anything for themselves , from the hard times through which we are passing , and , who would consent to any privation , even to the sacrific of life , sooner than place themselves in the ranks of pauperism , and throw themselves upon the charity of others , is the task that has the strongest claims upon our sympathies , and should encourage us to make strenuous efforts in promoting the raising of a substantial fund .

I may add as a further reason for the expenditure of contributions on the relief of these classes , that they will never abuse the liberality of the donors . His Excellency the Viceroy drew attention at the meeting held in Calcutta to the well-known fact that there is no country in the world in which there'is less risk of engendering a disposition on the part of the people relieved to remain dependent on the aid of charity . The people of this country generally, and especially the classes who are the chief objects of our endeavours to raise funds , are characteristically self-dependent , and will not allow themselves to subsist on the 675 THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 1 , 1874 .

PART I. ]

charity of others a day longer than the pressure of circumstances renders it necessary . No fact in connection with past seasons of dearth and high prices of food has been more clearly brought out than this .

Well then, gentlemen, the object of our charitable efforts being thus plainly defined , we come to the consideration of the question as to the obligation on us here assembled , who aim at representing the people of the castern districts , to contribute to the relief of the distress which is prevailing, and likely for sometime to prevail , in so many parts of the country.

I know that a doubt has been expressed , if not in Dacca, at least in some districts of the division, whether the people are not as badly off here as in the distressed tracts before referred to, and can therefore reasonably be asked to help others and a comparative review of the reported prices - current is assigned as the reason for this doubt . In regard to published prices-current, I would say that the returns cannot be taken by themselves as a certain indicator of the relative degrees of popular distress . I observe in a list now before me, quoting the prices - current in several districts and places up to very recent dates, that , with the exception of Tirhoot , rice was selling here as dear as in Calcutta ; yet it could not be thought that there was great distress amongst the population of Calcutta, where the population was, as a rule, far better off by reason of higher wages and other circumstances, than the people of Tirhoot and some of the other distressed tracts , and could better stand the pressure of high prices. And so it is here in the eastern districts the people are much better off. Wages of the ordordinary laborer in Behar are scarcely more than 3rds of the rate prevailing in this division . I know there are some industrial classes in this town , and probably other towns in this division, whose particular branches of industry are on the decline, and who , at a time like the present, are doubtless considerably straitened and subjected to much privation. But that is not the case with what I may call the landed interest of Eastern Bengal , in which term I include the zemindar , the middleman , and cultivating ryot - all , in short , who intercept any portion of the produce of the soil to whom especially my appeal for aid is addressed ; and whatever may have been the effect of the " hard times " on other classes, I assert without fear of con- tradiction, that for these classes- and they form the great mass of the community of these parts-the great calamity has been a source of actual profit and such has been the case; not only now but equally so, I believe , in all past seasons of dearth . Whatever inay be the sad effects of a time of drought elsewhere, in the well- watered districts of Eastern Bengal the land is ever productive. Such being the case, there is , I venture to say, an irresistible and indefeasible obligationobligation on the part of the people of Eastern Bengal , to come to the aid of their distressed fellow - countrymen of the western districts.

I will merely add two remarks, for I am unwilling longer to trespass on the time of this meeting- Ist, that influential persons may do more towards the success of the cause for which we have. met to-day , by inducing the humbler but well -to - do agricultural classes to contribute according to their means , setting on foot , in fact, a house - to -house invitation to subscribe , according to their means and this without the intervention of gomastos and peons, whose rapacity where they are employed makes such attempts a grievous imposition upon the people than by their own contributions on however large a scale, for great amounts aremade up, not out of the liberal gifts of the few, so much as the potty contributions of the masses ; and these, consequently, it should be our endeavour to reach by the present movement. My only remaining observation is that, perhaps some good might be done by landholders offering inducements to people of the distressed districts to come and settle on their estates where the population is sparse, and an opening for considerable extension of tillage exists . It has been suggested to me by a gentleman who has some experience of the Dacca and Mymensingh districts , that such a plan might be feasible, and , if so, I think it would unquestionably do much good , for I believe that the encouragements to emigration to Burmah have not been very successful in many parts of the distressed tracts-not that the people are disinclined to emigrate, but to go to a distant country such as Burmah , involv- ing a passage across the sea, is distasteful, and they would sooner take their chance where they are than accept such entire expatriation; but if a field for immigration here, where no such great disadvantages would accrue, were opened up , the case might be different; at least, I would commend the matter to your consideration.

I will now call upon Mr. Lyall to move the first Resolution:-

Mr. D. R. Lyall , with a few preliminary remarks to the effect that, judging from his immediate observation in various parts of the district, and his general knowledge of the province, famine, or even distress to any appreciable extent, need not immediately be expected in the eastern districts , moved the following Resolution :-

First Resolution.-Moved by Mr. Lyall.

That a General Committee for promoting the raising of subscriptions throughout the Eastern Districts for the gratuitous relief of persons suffering from the present scarcity and consequent high price of food in many parts of Behar and Bengal be formed at Dacca. That the following gentlemen be appointed members of the Committee, with power to add to their number, and to form , in case of necessity, a Sub - Committee for the administration of relief in any of the Eastern Districts , and that the European and Native gentlemen of Sylhet , Mymensingh, Furrcedpore , Backergunge and Tipperah be invited to form Branch 676

Baboo Rohini Coomar Bysack , another pleader of the Judge's Court , said :-

GENTLEMEN AND FELLOW - COUNTRYMEN,-We are called here to contribute what sums we canin aid of thedistressed people in the famine - stricken districts of North Behar. The objects of the meeting, the extent, character , and magnitude of the calamity which hangs over the people inhabiting the tracts marked by the thick sable line in the map hung on the wall, have been pointed out to you by the Chairman. It now behoves us to feel for them, realize their condition , and do what lies in our power to alleviate their sufferings . If you were to present yourself in one of these afflicted localities , you might picture to yourself what sights would meet your eyes : men, women, and children all crying out for a mouthful of food . All is gloom and sorrow. The monotonous, melancholy aspect is visible everywhere . Not a busy hum of life to disturb the still solemnity of the dismal heavens . Such is the awful , heartrending scene to distract the sight and pain the heart . Parents who would devote their lives for their children are suffering under the excruciating pangs of hunger, and are incapable of doing that duty to them which Sir Sidney Smith did to his wounded comrade on the battle field. A correspondent from one of the famishing districts writing to a Calcutta daily paper said that a man earned six pice as his whole day's wages , and with it in the evening brought to his house a seer of Alooa , which he ate himself without giving the least morsel to his crying babes . Such are the heartrending accounts that reach us from these places , me wealthier countrymen ! What avails your wealth if you do not spend a fraction of it to savy your countrymen ? You all remember the lines you read in the Juvenile Course :-

When wealth to virtuous hands is given ,

It blesses like the dews of heaven ;

Ithears the orphan's cries

And wipes the widow's tears .

My brethren, it is not the case of orphans and widows only, but indiscriminate humanity that now appeals to your sympathy. Go where you may, for miles and miles together, you PART I.]

will find one universal cry of want among the poor. Come then , I exhort you , give in thousands , and the Moral Governor of the Universe will repay you with plenty. This is a fit occasion for you to open your purses . If men in foreign lands are grieved to hear of the distress in this country , and subscribe largely , should you not help your own countrymen ? Brethren, sustain your reputation as a hospitable race. In ordinary times , men with ordi- nary means in the villages , feed as many as present themselves at meals and will not let them go away unfed. Come forth , therefore, and liberally respond to the call. As for you , my countrymen of moderate means , it behoves you to do the same duty with still greater alacrity, remembering that it is your fellow -beings who are the sufferers in these places pointed out to you by the Chairman in the map , and remember the native adage that ten men's sticks put together will make one man's load . I therefore reiterate , do not hesitate to to make the best of this opportunity and earn the blessings of the afflicted and dying , and grace before the throne of the All - Merciful.

The Resolution was then put to the mecting by the Chairman and carried unanimously.

Mr. Thoms urged in general terms the great necessity for active benevolence that the times presented, and , as charity begins at home , and the evidence of suffering to some extent was locally becoming apparent in the market fluctuations in the prices of food cereals , he thought it only prudent to move the following Resolution :-

Second Resolution .-Moved by Mr. A. Thoms .

That the money raised by subscription throughout the Eastern Districts form one consolidated fund for expenditure in gratuitous relief; that one -half be held as a reserve , so long as the Committee shall deem it necessary , for the administration of relief where required in any of the districts in which the money is raised , and that the remaining moiety be transmitted to the Executive Relief Committee in Calcutta, for application to relief measures under that Committee's control .

Mr. J. G. N. Pogose seconded the Resolution .

Baboo Obhoy Chunder Dass , Personal Assistant to the Commissioner, addressed the meeting in Bengali , strongly advocating the object of the Resolution , dwelling at length upon the duties and special obligations of the people of the Eastern Districts in this matter, and giving, for the information of those present, who might be supposed to be acquainted only with their own vernacular, a brief resumé of what had been said by those speakers who had previously addressed the meeting in English .

TheResolution was then put to the meeting by the Chairman and carried unanimously . The Chairman then proposed the circulation of the subscription lists for entry of the subscriptions of those present, announcing that the following subscriptions amongst others had been already communicated :-

STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS .

This Bill has been framed with a view to remedy certain defects which are believed to exist in Act VIII of 1871 of the Bengal Council . It was at the time of the passing of that Act 6. Every license to be granted under the Discretion to Justices to provisions of Bengal Act grant licenses under Act VIII of 1871 , shall be in VIII of 1871 ( B. C ) the absolute discretion of the Justices , and shall be signed by some person duly authorized by them in that behalf.

7. The Justices may from time to time appoint Power to Justices to persons for the purpose of appoint persons to super superintending and keeping order in any market, for inspecting the meat and provisions therein exposed for sale , and every person who shall Penalty for obstruct- markets. obstruct such persons whilst ing persons superintending in the execution of their duty, shall, for every such offence, be liable on conviction before a Justice of the Peace to a penalty not exceeding rupees for every such offence .

supposed that the Justices had power not only to establish municipal markets , but also to carry them on and provide for the expenses out of the Municipal Fund ; but this view is now believed to be erroneous , and the consequence is that the Justices have no power to expend money for carrying on a new market recently established by them in the neighbourhood of the Dhurrum- tollah Market. It is necessary, therefore, that the Legislature should not only give them power toexpend such money for the future, but should also give the Chairman of the Justices an in- demnity in respect of money already expended.

8. It shallbe lawful for the Justices out of the Municipal funds , as de-

Power to Justices to carry on markets with fined by Section 6 of Bengal Municipal funds .

The Bill also, o accordance with a Resolution passed by the notices , gives them power to borrow a further sum of seven laklıs of rupees, in order to enable them to purchase the market called the Dhurrumtollah Market , and to carry on such market in the manner above mentioned .

It has also been thought . necessaryto give the Justices a wider discretion as to granting of licenses under Act VIII of 1871 of the Bengal Council.

CALCUTTA MARKETS ACT AMENDMENT .

THE HON'BLE MR . SCHALCH Moved for leave to introduce a Bill to amend Act VIII of 1871 ( for the better regulation of markets in Calcutta, and to empower the Justices to establish Municipal Markets ) . He said, before proceed- ing to explain the provisions of this Bill, he would claim the attention of the 262 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 1 , 1874 .

Council while he gave a brief sketch of the circumstances which led to the introduction of that Act , and the proposed amendment of it now. When the present Municipality was created, more than eleven years ago, the attention of the executive was drawn almost immediately to the state of the markets scattered all over the town . The Health Officer of the town was requested to visit and report upon these , and after a time considerable improvements were made ; the owners of the markots , as a goneral rule , being willingto co-operate with the Municipality . In one bazar, however, the Dhurrumtollah Bazar, which afforded supplies to nearly all the Europeans , and a great portion of the native population inhabiting the portion of the town south of Bow Bazar, the Municipality met with great obstruction . There was no desire shown on the part of the proprietors at all to meet the wishes of the Municipality : only , so far as the law permitted, the most glaring defects of conservancy were removed . But even in carrying out those improvements , from the outset , great reluctance was shown on the part of the proprietors . Nothing would induce themto carry out measures for the comfort and convenience of the public beyond the point up to which they were obliged to do by law. In 1866, the Municipal Act was amended, and advantage was taken of it to introduce a clause by which the Municipality was empowered to widen and clear out the approaches to and roads in the bazars, and under the operation of that Act many improvements wero carried out in the Dhurrumtollah Bazar, and it was to some extent rendored less crowded. However, that bazar still remained in a very unsatisfactory state, and it was still very crowded , ill -ventilated , and defective in its arrangements. The condition of the bazar was so considered by many of the rate-payers , and a meeting was at one time held to bring the matter to public notice. However, nothing camo of that. But in the beginning of 1866, when Mr. Schalch happened to be Chairman, there being a surplus of a lakh of rupees to the credit of the Municipality, he brought forward a resolution proposing that it should be allotted to the purchase of land for a site for the establishment of a Municipal Market. That proposal was accepted by the Justices , and subsequently subsequently the sanction of the Government was obtained for allotting one lakh for that purpose. He might mention, perhaps, that in making that pro- position, his idea at the time was to purchase a piece of land that would suffice for the ordinary requirements of a Municipal Market ; and if it should prove necessary to establish one, that at first the building should be on a more limited scale, in view that when the proprietors of the Dhurrum- tollah Market saw there was a decided wish on the part of the Justices , if necessary, to establish a Municipal Market, they might be induced to make arrangements to ameliorate the condition of their own bazar ; so that it was merely a desire on the part of the Justices to work in co-operation with the owners of the Dhurrumtollah Market for the general benefit of the public . However , shortly after that he left the Municipality , and his successor laid the matter before the Finance Committee. The Finance Committee was of opinion that the amount which had been allotted for the purchase of a site for a new market would not, under the circumstances, suffice ; and it was proposed to the Justices by their Chairman, in accordance with the Resolution passed by the Finance Committce, that a site should be purchased and estimates should be made of the probable cost of establishing a Municipal Market . That Resolution came before the Justices at a meeting held on the 27th of April 1866; it was opposed by many of the Justices , and a Resolution was passed to the effect that the market project should be abandoned . The matter in question dropped, and nothing was done again until 1870, when the Chairman, in bringing forward matters connected with the Municipal slaughter-house , suggest- ed the expediency and advisability of establishing a Municipal Market. The project was then taken up and the Chairman suggested that, with a view to avoid the expense which would be incurred in purchasing a site , the Wellington Square, which was then covered in as a reservoir for supplying water to the town, should be devoted to that purpose. That Resolution did not meet with acceptance, and a special market committee was then appointed, in view to consideronsider thethe expediency and practicablity of constructing aMunicipal Market , That committee reported in January 1871. The report was in SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 1 , 1874. 263

favor of establishing a Municipal Market by purchasing the Dhurrumtollah Market for the sum of six lakhs of rupees under the Land Acquistion Act so as to obtain a good and sufficient title; or in case the proprietor was not willing to part with it upon those terms , then the piece of land situated between a certain part of Jaun Bazar and Lindsay Street should be taken up as a suitable site. The Chairman of that time, he believed , supported the proposition to buy the Dhurrumtollah Market . However , on the matter coming before the Justices , theyfinally resolved that it was in their opinion advisable to establish a Municipal Market ; that the Legislative authority should be moved to pass an Act empowering the Justices to establish one or more Municipal Markets , and to raise the necessary capital by the issue of Municipal debentures or otherwise, on the security of the markets and of the land on which the markets might be constructed, as well as of the rents to be derived from the markets , and on the collateral security of the rates and taxes ; and lastly, that in the event of the Government agreeing to authorize the Municipality by a legislative enactment to establish a market, and also to grant a loan to the Municipality for that purpose, the Chairman be authorized to do all acts neces- sary for acquiring the site, recommended by the special committee , lying between Jaun Bazar and Lindsay Street. On that Resolution being forwarded to Government Act VIII of 1871 was introduced, based very much upon the terms which wero suggested by the Municipality. So far this was the history of the introduction of Act VIII of 1871. In accordance with that Act the sum of six lakhs of rupees was borrowed from the Government and appropriated to the purchase of land and the construction of the market . The present Chairman of the Municipality took a great interest in this undertaking, and through his exertions land had been purchased and a portion of the building which the Municipality designed to construct had been constructed, and the market was establshed and opened by the Chairman at the close of last year . Immediately upon the opening of the market it naturally entered into direct competition with the Dhurrumtollah Market, and there had been serious compli- cations resulting thereupon . Suits had been brought against the Chairman personally by the proprietor of the market for alleged legal acts and appropriation of the funds of the Municipality to purposes not contemplated by the Act. This led to the subject being again brought before the Justices , and on the 15th of last January the Justices appointed a special committee for the purposes of assisting and advising the Chairman on all matters connected with the Municipal Market. Subsequently, at a meeting held on the 20th January, they resolved that the question of arranging matters with the proprietors of the Dhurrumtollah Market, with a view to prevent future disputes, be referred to the special committee for consideration and report ; and that it should be an instruction to the committee that the idea of giving up the new market should not be discussed or in any way entertained. Guided by those instructions , the special committee held several meetings , and submitted their report . They suggested that the Justices should obtain legislative sanction for expending money for all purposes necessary to secure the establishment and maintenance of the Municipal Market in competition with the Dhurrumtollalı Market, and they further suggested that , in preference to that, a compromise should be effected by buying up that bazar. The Justices in mecting on the 10th February considered this report . They resolved to purchase, on certain conditions , the Dhurruntollah Market for a sum of seven lakhs, it being understood that the Lieutonant- Governor would propose to the Legislative Council any legislation necessary to enable the proposal to be carried out. On receipt of these proceedings from the Justices the present Bill was drafted and was now before the Council .

It With regard to that Bill MR . SCHALCH would make a few observations . The establishment of a market, or rather the construction of it, had entailed considerable expense upon the Municipality ; and it was, he thought , for the Justices , to consider how that oxpenditure was to be met. was not, he thought , for the Council to dictate to them the way they should follow, or that they should follow any particular course , but to place them in aposition whereby, by removing any defects of the existing law, the Council 264 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 1 , 1874 .

could give them perfect freedom of conduct, so as to enable them to adopt any course they might think advisable . The Municipality was certainly not re- presented by election, but it certainly was represented by selection, and by the nominations made to the office of Justice of the Peace almost all classes of the community were represented in the Corporation. It was , he thought , for them to determine what course they would follow . By their last Resolution they proposed to purchase the Dhurrumtollah Market on receiving the necessary sanction from Government . But he should mention that since that Resolution was passed there had been a very strong remonstrance submitted by very many of the inhabi- tants of the town , and the matter was to be re - considered in the coming week .

There now seemed to be three courses open to the Justices . One was to close the market altogether. That seemed to be certaintly not advisable, because a large sum of money had been expended upon the market . The object, if it could be carried out, was undoubtedly a good and a laudable one, and by closing the market, a certain burden would be thrown upon the rate -payers of the town , and as the Act at present stood, it was a question whether, having once oponed a market, they could close it .

Secondly, it was open to the Justices to carry out the scheme-having constructed and established the market , to maintain it . Of course, for establishing and maintaining the market certain funds would be necessary, and hitherto it had boon supposed that that expenditure could be met from the Municipal Fund . That question was raised, and an opinion had been given by eminent lawyers , which , of course, he would not attempt to controvert , that under the law the Justices could not expend the municipal funds for that purpose ; and that, under Act VIII of 1871 , the Justices were authorized to construct markets , but not to expend any money for maintaining them . This certainly seemed to him to be rather a restrictive construction of the law; because if we looked to the debates which ensued when that Act was introduced , it certainly was the general opinion that not only were the funds to be applied towards the con- struction of a market , but that they would probably be necessary towards the maintenance of it because it was even feared, not only that the Justices would have to maintain a bazar by means of the ordinary necessary exponses, but that it might be necessary for them to apply for powers to establish farms and incur other expenses altogether outside the usual establishment and expenses of a market ; and that was very strongly objected to . However that might be, an opinion to that effect havhaving been given, it was thought necessary that it should now be distinctly stated that the Justices would have the power, not only of constructing and building, but of maintaining and establishing a market. We all knew that in this place perhaps more than any- where else it was not sufficient merely to open a building for thethe purposes of a market, but you must establish it , and make arrangements for the necessary supplies being forthcoming, and for that purpose a certain amount of expenditure would have to be incurred.

Well then, there was a third course open to the Justices to adopt, which was to do away with all competition by purchasing the Dhurrumtollah Market ; but even in that case, if they purchased the rival bazar, they must still have a certain power of expenditure for the purpose of maintaining their own market. He did not propose to ask the Council to decide which of these three courses it wouldbe advisable to adopt . The Justices represented all classes of the community, and it was a matter entirely for thom to determine what their course of action wouldbe. All that he thought the Council could do would be to clear the way for them , so that they might not find that they were debarred by the law from following any one particular course .

With this view it was proposed to introduce a Bill to amend the existing Act. It was not the time now to enter into the details of the Bill , but he would state roughly what its chief provisions were. First, ho would say, that the existing rights of all present bazar proprietors were to be maintained; that for the future the Justices would retain the right they now possessed of licensing bazars, but would be allowed to exercise their discretion as to whether or not they should grant such licensos . Secondy, the Bill proposed to give the Justices power to take up land for the construction of municipal markots by purchase, SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 1, 1874. 265

lease, or otherwise ; to purchase or take on lease any lands now used as a market , and to appropriate lands now belonging to them, and to set out the whole or any part thereof for the purposes of such markets . The next chief provision in the Bill was that it should be left for the Justices , from the Municipal Fund, out of the money to be borrowed under the Act, and out of the money derived from the rents , to expend such sums as they might think necessary for the construction, maintenance, and keeping of such market in repair . The Bill further gave the Justices power to acquire any land for these purposes .

These were the main features of the Bill . When the Bill wont into Committeo its details wouldbe carefully considered, and, no doubt , due con- sideration would be given to any observations that might nowbe made by any Hon'ble Member. He would ask permission to move that the Bill be introduced .

BABOO DOORGA CHURN LAW said he objected to the Bill . In the first place the financial aspect of the schome scomod most unsatisfactory, and he thought it would be a burden to the town to allow the Municipality to enter into this new scheme. IIe had made calculations as to the prospective results of buying the old rival bazar , and the result seemed to him to show a very heavy loss to be yearly incurred by the Municipality, for how long it was impossible to say ; and if the Bill was passed he thought it would be a great injustice to the rate- payers of the town. With these remarks he regretted he could not support the Bill.

HIS HONOR THE PRESIDENT said the Council would understand that, as his time was now very fully occupied, it had not been possible for him to give full attention to the details of the Bill . For the details, therefore, he could not hold himself responsible, but for the general principles of the Bill , he might say that he did hold himself responsible jointly with the Hon'ble Member who introduced it. He was very sorry indeed to learn that a gentleman so well qualified to judge as his hon'ble friend Baboo Doorga Churn Law held a contrary opinion, but he trusted that when the matter was throshed out in Committee , perhaps these differences might be in some degree reconciled.

He would state briefly the history of the Bill so far as he was concerned in it as the representative of the Governinent . The Hon'ble Member in charge of theBill had very lucidly explained the whole matter from a period far previous to His Honor's administration. But as regards the immediate position of the matter he would say a few words . Now, the first occasion in respect of which he consented to take part in placing a Bill of this kind before the Bengal Council was in regard simply to the question whether the Justices of the Peace for the Town of Calcutta , the Municipal Corporation, had or had not power to expend their own moneys in the establishment and maintenance of a market. The Members of the Council were probably aware that at a meeting of the Justices there was , he might say, sprung upon them as a surprise a legal opinion, or rather a part of a legal opinion, the effect of which was to induce the Justices of the Peace to suppose that the proceedings of their Chairman had beon illegal , inasmuch as inoney had been expended on the establishment of a new market . Now, he must say that that opinion took him entirely by surpriso . His Honor was a party to the last Market Act which was introduced into this Council , and certainly his impression was that the object and intention of the Act was that the Justices should have the power to build, establish , and maintain a market . It seemed to him to be an absurdity that power should be given to the Justices to build a market , and that no power should be given to them to expend money logitimately necessary for the establishing and maintaining of that market. It seemed to him that the opinion put before the Justices , if it was correct and in regard to that he did not now say a word-altogether stultified the Act of this Council in passing a Bill for the establishment of municipal markets . Becauso, if the Justices should build a market , and before any income was received, could not expend any money upon the establishment and maintenance of the market , the whole Act of neces- sity would fall to the ground . He therefore at once said that, in his opinion, if there was any reasonable doubt as to the construction of the law, it was 266 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 1 , 1874 .

right that the doubt should be cleared up , and power given to the Justices at their discretion to expend money for establishing the market in such ways as might seem to them to be right. IHe was very far from saying that it' was desirable that the Justices should establish farms , and incur other expen- diture outside the ordinary and simple duty of establishing and maintaining a market in the ordinary way. But so far he thought it was right that so much power should be given to the Justices , and he hoped the Council would consent to that power being given to the Justices . That power was given by Section 8 of the Bill now before the Council; but he thought it necessary to guard himself against the supposition that either he or the Government of Bengal was in any degree responsible for the exact wording of the Bill ,because he observed that there were some words in Section 8 to which he was not altogether prepared to subscribe . His view was that it was fair that from borrowed capital the Justices should build the Municipal Market and do all that was necessary for its establishment, in the same manner as out of capital railways and other great works were constructed . But he thought that for its future establishment and maintenance, and for doing all those auxiliary things which were necessary to carry on the market , recourse should not be had to borrowed money, but this should be done from the municipal income. If he were a member of the Select Committee on this Bill he should be very much inclined to call in question the words in Section 8, " out of the moneys borrowed under the provisions of this Act . " His view was that from the money borrowed the market should be built and completed, and that money borrowed should not be applicable to the establishment and maintenance of the market after it had once been given over to the Justices in a complete state. His view was that so much should be done from current income, from the rents and collections of the market, and the general revenues of the Municipality . With that pro- viso he thought it was proper that the Justices should be able to establish and maintain any municipal markets which they had built .

Well, then, we came to another part of the Bill , which was that part which gave the Justices power to borrow another seven lakhs with a view to apply it to the establishment of markets . The Hon'ble Member in charge of the Bill had explained that the object of that simply was to enable the Justices to buy up the market known as the Dhurrumtollah Market . HIS HONOR had heard with great regret that his hon'ble friend, Baboo Doorga Churn Law, thought that the proposed speculation would be an unprofitable one. HIS HONOR was himself inclined to suppose that the speculation would be a profitable one to the Justices ; he was not inclined to take part in any action of that kind which would result in serious loss , but it seemed to him that it would be profitable to the Justices in two ways- first, that a very valuable property would be acquired by them , which property, if it were to be sold by auction , would bring in a large price, or if it were let out, would yield large ronts , and a large income would thus be acquired ; and secondly, the Justices would thus buy off competition. As a rule, he was pre- pared to admit that individual competition was a very good thing ; but on the otherhand , when we had opened out a public market , which would be conducted in the interests of the community, he did not think it was undesirable that competition should be bought off. It seemed to him that it would be very injurious both to the Municipality and the proprietors of the old market if they entered into a protracted and active competition with each other , and he believed that the public would benefit both directly by a good investment and indirectly by the absence of competition and injurious rivalry. Well, then, that being so, he had only to say that the question whether the bargain was a good or a bad one was not for this Council but for the Justices to decide . He trusted that there was that amount of wisdom in the Corporation, comprising as it did many very competent persons, to enable them to decide whether the bargain was a good bargain or a bad one. In respect to that he must confess that he was not in a position to form a competent opinion. All that weproposed to do in respect of this Bill was that power should be given to the Justices to borrow a certain sum of money, and with that sum of money to make what they might consider a good and prudent bargain for the purchase of a large market in the town . If they considered that bargain to be an imprudent one, it would be for them 267 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 1 , 1874 .

to reject it, and he had no doubt that even if the Council should be pleased to accopt this Bill , in his hon'ble friend Baboo Doorga Churn Law, in his capacity of a member of the Corporation, a safe guardian of the interests of the Justices and the public would be found , and that no bad or imprudent bargain would be completed . If the Council had sufficient confidence in the Justices, and if they believed that the Justices would not be likely to make a foolish or imprudent bargain, why then, His Honor believed this Bill might safely be passed . The Council would have full assurance that the Justices would act according to their best discretion , and if they made a foolish or a bad bargain, the Government would then do its best to control the action of the Justices .

The other part of the Bill was a sort of condonation for past acts . Now, His HONOR wished to say at once that this Bill would in no degree interfere between the Justices and their Chairman. It was for the Justices to settle what the Chair- man did with their authority , what they approved of and what they did not ; but as between private individuals on one side and the Justices and their Chairman on the other, he thought that it was right that the Council should legalise the acts which the Government and others had supposed to be legal , namely, that the Justices might expend money for the due establishment and maintenance of the markets which they might build . Beyond that we did not ask the Council to go . But so far he thought they should go . The opportunity was taken to enable the Justices to regulate the municipal markets by byc-laws , and he felt sure that the Council would think that was a reasonable and proper power to give the Justices. That was a power given in other Acts in regard to all such matters to public bodies, and there was nothing unreasonable about it.

Under all the circumstances he trusted that the Council would think that this Bill was not, prima facie , an unreasonable Bill, and that the objection his hon'ble friend had made in regard to the imprudence of the bargain was not one which would be decided by this Bill , and could be reconsidered by the Justices , and HIS HONNR hoped therefore that the Council would not object to the introduction of the Bill and to its being referred to a Select Committee, as was about to be proposed.

The motion was then agreed to .

The HON'BLE MR . SCHALCH applied to the President to suspend the rules for the conduct of business in view to his proceeding with the Bill to its next stage . Publication had been given to the Bill , and the subsequent motions were merely of a formal nature.

HIS HONOR THE PRESIDENT said it was very undesirable that this Bill should be unduly hurried . But since it had been for some days in the hands of the Council, and as they knew what the Bill was, and , as had been suggested, the proposal to forward it one dogree was a mere matter of form , he thought he was fully justified in suspending the rules, and he would therefore give per- mission to the Hon'ble Member in charge of the Bill to proceed with it .

The HON'BLE MR . SCHALCH moved that the Bill be read in Council. The HON'BLE MOULVIR ABDOOL LUTEEF said that, if it were considered advis- able to continue the new Municipal Market which had already been established, as he believed it was, he thought that the Justices should have the extended powers proposed to be given to them by this Bill . The only point to which he wished to draw the attention of the Council was the provision in Section 8, which would make it lawful for the Justices to expend such sums of money out of the municipal funds as they might think necessary for the purposes of the Municipal Market . He admitted that some such provision was required to strongthen the hands of the Justices whenever such a course seemed reasonable and proper . But at the same time he thought that some reasonable limit should be placed upon the amount to be expended for the purposes of the Municipal Market out of the general municipal funds . The attention of the Select Committee should therefore, in his opinion , be directed to that point.

The motion was then agreed to .

The HON'BLE MR . SCHALCH moved that the Bill be referred to a Select Com- mittee . He was in hopes that they should have the assistance of the learned Advocate-General in the Committee, but the Advocate-General had assured 268

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 1 ; 1874 .

Mr. Schalch that his time was at present fully occupied ; and although he was most willing to advise the Committee upon any matters connected with the Bill, he regretted that he could not sit on the Committee . MR . SCHALCH would there- fore move that the Committee be composed of the following members , namely, Mr. Hogg, Moulvie Abdool Luteef, Baboo Doorga Churn Law, and the Mover, with instructions to report in ten days .

The motion was agreed to .

ADJOURNMENT OF THE COUNCIL .

HIS HONOR THE PRESIDENT said he was not aware that there was any other pressing business before the Council, and unless the Council should be specially summoned in the meantime, it would not be necessary that they should meet before the expiration of another fortnight, at the end of which time he hoped that the report of the Select Committee on the Market Bill would be laid before them ; and therefore , for the present , the Council would be adjourned for a fortnight . In doing so , he might say that this was porhaps the last occasion on which he should have the honor and the dignity of presiding at the meetings of the Council. And he must take occasion, in taking leave of the Ilon'ble Members of the Council , to thank them , which he did most heartily and sincerely, for the assistance which they had rendered him during his presidency. He would also say that he would retain to the last days that might be spared to him a pleasant recollection of what he might call the happy hours he had spent in this Council . He might say that, during the period in which he had the honor to preside, it had fortunately happened that the harmony of this Council had never been disturbed; that understanding and respecting one another , they had exercised their respective functions in a manner which , at all events , he hopod had not done harm , and which he might venture to say had done some good . He was sure that any good which had been done was due to the Hon'ble Members who now sat, and who had sat , before them in this Council . He could only , therefore , thank them very heartily indeed for their services, and he trusted that under his successors in future days they would continue their labors and follow the course which they had so honorably and so usefully followed for years past. The Council was adjourned to Saturday, the 11th April .

PATNADIVISION.

Warm, westerly wind prevailing . In the Mudhoobunnee Sub -division , the cold -weather crops arebeing harvested. In a few places moong (pulse) and cheena (millet) have been sown and plants are thriving. Want of rain is much felt. Moong (pulse) will yield a good harvest and in some way mitigate the pressure of famine. The cold-westher crops which have been reaped in the Hajoepore part of the sub - division look well and strong . Towards the north of the sub - division, especially about Shahpur and parts of Mowah, the outturn has disappointed everyone. The crop looked much thicker before it was reaped than it has subsequently turned out. In this part the sub -divisional officer has commenced relieving isolated cases of distress , chiefly old people and children . There is abundance of work as yet for the agricultural and coolie classes . In Seetamurhee there has been no rain since last report , strong westerly wind injuring the crop now being reaped The cold -weather crops are being reaped , but the fields will not, the Collector fears , yield as much as has been anticipated.

34Monghyr, 28th Mar. 1874 Nil Seasonable weather. The harvest is general and every available porson is in the field; the outturn in Dearahs as was expected is quite up to the average, in some favored tracts an unusually good crop has been reaped. Taking high and low lands together, the outturn of the cold-weather crops may be calculated, a 12-anna crop and between six and eight millions of maunds of grain will bo secured to the district.

1874. 35 Bhagulpore, 31st Mar. Nil No rain has fallen . Harvesting of the cold -weather crops in full operation , return very good . Mango and mohwa crops very promising. General health unusually good.

42 Lohardugga, 28th March Nil 1874.

Fine weather and cool for the time of the year . The cold -weather crops are being reaped, but the outturn will be very small owing to the limited area under cultiva tion and the gram in Palamow has been somewhat damaged by insects . If the weather remains clear for the next 10 days the mohwa will be plentiful in the Palamow and Toree Pergunnalıs and this will afford much relief to the people. The lands are all ready now for cultivation . Prices steady . General health good .

RESOLUTION.

The 6th April 1874. By the death of Mr. J. H. Ravenshaw the number of Judges of the first grade is reduced to fifteen , at which it is to remain ,

2. The appointment of a Judge of the second grade in the vacancy in the olass of Judges caused by Mr. Ravenshaw's death gives a saving of Rs . 500 per mensem , which , with the surplus (Rs . 100 ) left by the arrangements made on Sir William Herchel's promotion from a first grade Judgeship to the Commissionership of the Cooch Behar Division, will amount to Rs . 600 per mensem . This has enabled His Honor to raise two more officers from the third grade ( on Rs . 1,500) to the second grade (on Rs . 1,800 ) , which , with thirteen officers already in the second grade, makes fifteen second grade Magistrates and Collectors - the number at which it is intended to stand . There are now , therefore-

15 Judges of the 1st class

15 Magistrate - Collectors , 2nd class .

15 Ditto 2nd ditto .

Ditto

3rd class .

15 Magistrate -Collectors, 1st class . Superintendent of Survey (classed with Magis- trate- Collectors on Rs. 1,500) . 1

3. The only remaining small saving to be effeoted is when the two additional Judges on Rs. 2,166-10-8 fall in, when their successors will have Rs . 2,000 per mensem . In the meantime these officers will be classed as second grade Judges .

Circular to Local Governments and Administrations , Nos . 40-2630 to 2633, dated 14th August 1873, and roplies received.

RESOLUTION .

IN MAY 1869 the Government of India in the Foreign Department sanctioned certain rules for regulating the importation of fire- arms and ammunition into the Lower Provinces of Bengal, and their transport from place to place within the limits of those provinces , under the provisions of Sections 17 to 22 of Act XXXI of 1860, and at the same time issued a Circular to the other Local Governments and Administrations inquiring how far such rules would meet their respective requirements .

2. From the replies received it appears necessary to frame uniform regulations for placing the importation and inland transport of cannon and arms and ammunition under systematic control throughout British India.

8. And from other portions of the correspondence read, it appears desirable to prohibit the transhipment of cannon and arms and ammunition at certain British Indian ports, and to restrict the granting of passes for the exportation of cannon and arms and ammunition from British India.

4. The Governor -General in Council is therefore pleased to declare as follows :- Firstly, as regards the importation of cannon and arms and ammunition , that licenses for import under Section 17 , Act XXXI of 1860, will henceforward be granted only at places and by the officials named in the list appended to this Resolu tion. These orders will supersede the Notifications issued from the Home Department in October 1860 and July 1866, which authorized the chief police officer in every town and frontier district to grant licenses, and so much of the Foreign Office Notification of 1869 as relates to the importa- tion of arms , & c. , by sea or by land into India; also so much of the Notifica- tion (dated 22nd July 1878 ) which appeared in the Calcutta Gazette of 23rd July 1873, as relates to the importation of fire- arins and ammunition into the territories under the Government oftof Bengal. Secondly, as regards the transhipment of arms , &c . , that a Notification has issued under Section 6 of Act VI of 1873, prohibiting such traushipment at the ports to which that Act extends .

Thirdly , as regards the inland transport of arms , &c . , from one part of India to another, that the rules, of which a copy is appended to this Resolution, are approved, and that they be published under Section 22 of Act XXXI of 1860 : further that, in order to enable the Local Administrations under the Govern- ment of India to make similar rules for interior transport within their respec- tive territories, a Notification has issued delegating to the Chief Commissioners 688

[PART I. THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874 .

the power conferred upon a local Government by Section 22 of Act XXXI of1860.

Fourthly, as regards the granting of passes for exporting arms and ammunition , that no such passes shall in future be granted for exportation either by land or sea , ex- cept by the Secretary to the Government of India in the Foreign Department, and such other officers as the Government of India, or the Governments of Madras and Bombay within their respective Presidencies , may have expressly author- ized, or may hereafter expressly authorize, in this behalf. That all such passes shall be granted , subject , as far as may be, to the rules for the trans- port of arms within British India, and that , whenever there is a Political Agent , Cantonment Magistrate, or other British official at the place of destination, the pass shall be delivered to him within six days of the arrival there of the articles covered by it , with a view to his satisfying himself that there is no deficiency, in the same manner as a Magistrate of a British district is required to do by the inland transport rules .

SIR,-In acknowledging the receipt of your letter No. 980 , dated 21st January 1874 , reporting on the state of the copper coinage in Calcutta, I am directed to state that theGovernor- General in Council considers it desirable to offer the podars a sufficient inducement to pick out all worn pice and present them for exchange for fresh pice or rupees at the Currency Office and at the Mint.

Circular No. 9. FINANCIAL DEPARTMENT .

Calcutta, the 24th March 1874 .

The attention of Collectors and Treasury Officers is hereby directed to the Notification by the Government of India , No. 44 , dated 10th January 1867, Financial Department, making it optional on the part of holders of Government Promissory Notes to register them at the Bank of Bengal , in the " Book Debt Account," receiving Stock Certificates in exchange for the notes . As the certificates are not transferable by endorsement, they form a safe and simple way of keeping Trust Funds in Government paper, without incurring the expense of the commission charged by the Banks for the custody of Promissory Notes . An instance has recently occurred in which expense was needlessly incurred from oversight of the Notification referred to. Officers in charge of Trust Funds are therefore reminded of the existence of this means of providing for their security .

2. The Collector opened the proceedings by stating that, as the sub -divisional officer at Gurbetta was new to his work, and as the relief of the weavers there would involve large expen- diture, and was already to a certain extent provided for by the appointment of a special Deputy Magistrate, the superintendence of the relief of the weaver classes had better be undertaken by the Sudder sub - divisional committee . On the Collector's motion , therefore , it was resolved that this committee should take into their own hands the relief of the weavers and distressed classes in Chunderkonah , Ramjeebunpore , Kheerpoy , Radhanugur, Ghattal, and Kuarpore. 'The last , mentioned place is about 7 miles south of Chunderkonah .

3. The District Superintendent reported that the previous general fall in prices on the whole continued . In Beenpore thana a rise was reported , rice selling there at 17 seers , 15 chittacks, and paddy at 32 seers to the rupee , as - against 18 seers and 40 seers to the rupee as reported last week . At the same time, information had been received from Mr. Larymore that rice was being imported into Beenpore in large quantities from Singbhoom . As this importation appeared to be inconsistent with the reported rise of prices , the District Superintendent was asked to inquire into the facts, and reportto the committee at their nextmeeting.

4. Mr. Macaulay also laid before the committee a statement shewing the number of labourers employed on relief works It appears that the number has diminished ; but Mr. Macaulay attributes this to the fact that the recent rainfall has rendered ploughing possible, and he expects that the demand for employment will soon rise to its former level .

5. The purchase of rice in Midnapore has been proceeding steadily , and since last meeting Baboo Kally Prosono has made over 300 maunds to Mr. Anderson for storage in Messrs . Watson's factories .

6. A report from Baboo Gossain Dass Dutt, dated Chunderkonah , 18th March , was laid before the committee. He states that 128 of the Chunderkonah weavers have consented to learn to weave gunny, on condition that they are paid three annas a day while learning, and their gunny is bought at a fixed price afterwards . The committee sanctioned these terms on the strength of his statement, that nothing under three annus a day would enable the weavers to support their families . He said that he wanted persons who understood gunny- weaving , to act as teachers. The Secretary was accordingly directed to apply to the Superintendont of the jail for a gunny loom and two prisoners who understand gunny - weaving , and to send the loom and prisoners under a guard to Chunderkonah as soon as possible. The District Superintendent also undertook to find from among the released prisoners in that part of the district some who had been taught gunny - weaving when in jail .

7. One loom has already been despatchedto Chunderkonah with two prisoners to work it, and five looms have been ordered to be made on the same pattern as those used for gunny in the district jail . It is hoped that on setting these looms at work the weavers maybe induced to convert their own loons into gunny looms , a change which can be effected with tolerable ease .

8. Baboo Gossain Dass also reported serious distress among the non-weaving classes , and recommended that read works should be commenced as soon as possible. Re. 200 have been sent for road - work , and he has been further authorized in cases of great necessity to give tickets for cooked food in connection with the food - depôt already established for the relief of sufferers from the epidemic. His full report on the state of the weavers had not been received by last Saturday, so that the question of the wisdom of assisting the weavers in their own special trade could not be discussed at the last meeting. 9.

THE following Report of the Select Committee on the Bill to amend the Calcutta Markets' Act , VIII of 1871 , with the Bill as amended by the Committee, is , by order of the President, published for general information:-

We , the undersigned Members of the Select Committee of the Council of the Lieutenant- Governor of Bengal for the purpose of making Laws and Regulations, to which the Bill to amend the Calcutta Markets' Act, VIII of 1871 , was referred , have the honor to report that we have considered the above Bill , and have made the following amendments :-

1. We have defined the word " market " to mean " a market carried on under the control of the Justices of the Peace for the Town of Calcutta ; " in order to meet the case of any single person carrying on a market immediately under the direction of the Justices . We have also inserted Section 6 of the present Bill after Section 2 , and have slightly altcred the same so as to allow the Justices to exercise their discretion in granting licenses only at a mecting . We have erased clause (e) of Section 2 as unnecessary .

2. We are of opinion that if power is accorded to the Justices to purchase, establish , and carry on Municipal Markets , power should also be accorded to them to close, sell , or let out the same, and also to sell or let out land which remains in their hands after the closing of any market , To give them power to establish and carry on only, would , we think, tie them down to carrying on a business which might be an unremunerative one, to the detriment of the tax -payers . We have therefore after Section 3 of Bill inserted two fresh sections to the above effect .

3. We have struck out Section 7 of the Bill as unnecessary .

4. We have in Section 8 inserted the words " at a meeting " after the word " Justices " in the first line, as we are of opinion that a matter involving a somewhat unusual expenditure out of the Municipal Fund should be sanctioned by a majority of their number at a meeting .

5. For greater certainty we have inserted certain words at the end of Section 11 , in order to give the Justices the same powers for the purposes of this Act as they already possess under former Municipal Acts .

6 We have made a few verbal and unimportant amendments .

7. Generally we are of opinion that , this Bill being an enabling Bill , it is advisable to give to the Justices the most complete powers in so far as such powers are in accordance with the original intention of the Bill , leaving it to the wisdom of the Justices to accept any alternative they may consider most conducive to the interests of the tax -payers .

DOORGA CHURN LAW .

The 2nd April 1874 .

I object to Section 8 of the Bill , inasmuch as it sanctions trading or speculation by the Justices and throws upon the Municipal Fund all the risks of it . I hold that it does not fall within the legitimate functions of a Municipal Corporation to carry on competition with private capitalists , and that it would be a misuse of the funds contributed by the goneral tax- payers , if the same were made applicable for " any purpose or purposes which the Justices may deem necessary for establish- ing or carrying on the market, or conducive thereto ."

THE weather of the fortnight has been singularly favorable.

If, aIf, as is often the case in seasons like the present, rain con- tinues to fall in Bengal from time to time during the next three months , all these early crops will do very well, and the early rice(September crop) will make a fair start. In Behar, where

heavy rain would have done harm to the spring crops , very little has fallen, 292

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874 .

and the hail which fell in certain limited tracts did but little damage. The spring crops have thus been for the most part successfully harvested, and the little rain that fell did some good to the cheena (early millet) now in the ground. Now that the wheat, barley , and other spring crops have been nearly reaped, much will depend in Behar on whether we get good rain during April. The unfortunate tracts in Tirhoot which most suffered from the failure of the rice crops having little other crops to reap, still suffer from the continued want of rain, and their water- supply is beginning to fail. The people are now anxiously looking out for rain, not only for the petty crops on the ground , but also for a supply of water and grass, and to enable them to plough the land and sow indigo and some other crops . In Tirhoot the land has been so parched by continuous drought, that without copious rain during the next few weeks preparations for the next crop will be difficult and early sowings impossiblo. 2. In Western Bengal there has been little change of prices during the fort- night; in Calcutta, and over the greater part of East- Priceof grain.

ernBengal ,prices are somewhat easier than they were at the time of last narrative ; but there has been a general rise of prices over the Rajshahye Division; in North Behar also common rice has become somewhat dearer during the fortnight . In Monghyr an abundant spring crop has brought prices down. The price of wheat, barley, maize, and other staples has not grown dearer during the fortnight, and the comparative steadiness of the price of these grains is some makeweight against the rise in the price of rice . The returns furnished by the Chamber of Commerce show that, on the 27th March, the price of rice had fallen about 3 per cent . in Calcutta ; but for the rest of the fortnight prices were steady though the demand was limited . The price- currents for the two weeks will be found at enclosure No. 2.

  State of the crops .    outturn of the spring crops . The harvest has been
                          very good so far as it goes , and from moro than

one district it has been reported that the ears of wheat and barley are fuller than was expected . The early spring rice is doing well , and so also is the carly millet ( cheena) up to the present date. The reports of the last fortniglit unfortunately give no ground for hoping that the spring crops of North Tirhoot will be fuller than was expected at the time of the last narrative . North Tirhoot and a small strip of North Chumparun are the only Behar tracts whorcin the spring crops have not contributed largely to help the people through the diffi- culties of the present season . From two districts of East Bengal report was received that the heavy rain of the 23rd March had, to some extent, retarded SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 8, 1874. 293

agriculture . But subsequent open weather has remedied any temporary difficulty of this kind , and the early crops all promise woll. The April crop ofmulberry leaves , and the outturn of silk during that month , promise to be unusually good . In parts of Midnapore , Rajshahye , Moorshedabad, Boerbhoom , and some other districts , the April silk crop is of much importance to the ryots . The crop of mhowa flower, which in the wilder parts of the country to the west forms a large part of the food of the poor during April and May, promises to be good everywhere except in a part of the Sonthal Pergunnahs .

Supplyof grain.

4. The supply of grain in the principal local markets at the prices quoted is sufficient, oxcept in parts of Tirhoot, Chumparun, Purneah , Rungpore , and Palamow ; from one or two places it is reported that people who went to buy their weekly supply of rice at the nearest bazar had to come back without it. But , on the whole, the local supplies of grain are maintained wonderfully well . Even in part of Tirhoot , where there was not more than one-eighth of an average autumn crop, and where there has been hardly any spring harvest at all, the chief entrepôts had plenty of grain , and the local markets are fairly well supplied , an active petty trade having been hitherto maintained, and supplies brought up from the Ganges and the railway. In several places where the Government grain stores were opened to the work-people or to the public, comparatively little of the Government grain was purchased; indeed, it is only in North Chumparun and apart of Purneah and in Tirhoot on the works that any considerable quantities ofGovernment grain are being sold, either to work-people or to the public , through the local dealers . From some of the tracts in Tirhoot through which Government grain is being most largely carried , fears have been expressed lest the private supplies in the bazars should run short , becauso dealers are unable to replenish their stores from outside owing to want of carriage. The Sub- divisional Officer of Tajpore , through whose jurisdiction are carried the supplies ofgrain for North Tirhoot, writes :-" I am anxious about the bazar supplies; the contractors from Chumpta Ghat have lately taken to using pack animals. Ido not know how this great importing sub-division has been hitherto supplied, with nearly all its carts drawn off to feed those tracts which usually export to it ; but of this I am certain, that, if pack- bullocks are also taken up, the bazar supplies must fail " Results like this cannot , in view of the great operations Government have undertaken, be altogether avoided ; but the local officers have been desired to do all they can to mitigate the evil , and they have been especially prohibited from using any sort of compulsion to bring into Government service the pack animals employed on the private trade. * *

5. There is still no considerable import of grain on private account from beyond sea. But into some of the distressed Private importations of grain districts grain still flows briskly from other parts of India . The Sarun district continues to receive supplies from outside, much of which comes down the Ghogra river from Oudh. Rungporo , Bogra , Rajshahye and Maldah are supplied to a considerable extent from East Bengal , but of the amount of these supplies Government has no preciso statistics . The import of privato grain by railway into Behar was-

25,665 tons during the fortnight ,ht , or a daily importation of 1,833 tons of private grain into Behar . The greater part of this large quantity is consigned to Patna Station , where there was a considerable block of the traffic during the fortnight, the railway stations boing insufficiently provided with the necessary facilities for so large a traffic . Active steps have been taken to remedy this difficulty, and it is hoped that it has been met .

The grain thus imported has hitherto found its way by various petty channels into many parts of Behar both north and south of the river .

Grain trade from the Punjab During the fortnight under report the railway 6. In last narrative it was stated that there was much grain waiting in the Punjab to come down into the famine districts . officer deputed to inquire into the matter by the Government of Indiahas furnished his report . He finds that 28,580 tons of grain are waiting on the station premises of the Punjab Railway for means of transport to Benares and Behar . The chief adviser of the Punjab Government in railway matters believes that four times as much more grain is stored in bazars and serais, waiting for waggons to carry it down to the distressed tracts. The Consulting Engineer to the Government of India reports that , before the end of March , a fixed and uniform despatch of 1,250 tons of grain from the Punjab to the famine districts ought to be considered a certainty . The difference between the prices of grain in the Punjab and Behar is so great that the profits on the traffic are large ; and the Railway officer who conducted the enquiry reports that, under present circumstances, " it is absolutely certain that the supply of private grain to the railway will continue fully equal to its carrying power; " while it is clear that no " room can be found for Government grain transport without interfering with private trade . "

7. The usual note on the movement of food-grains will be found at Appendix A, in which will be found a statement Export of grain by sea . furnished by the Collector of Customs putting

}

the total export of food- grain from Bengal by sea for the five months from October to end of February, at 173,161 tons . (and this figure may be finally ac- cepted as correct , )

The authorised figures for the exports of the month of March have not yet been received . But, it is certain that the exports from Calcutta and Chittagong have much diminished. From the Orissa ports the exports continue to be moderate . So far as advices have been received, the exports of food - grains from Bengal for the month of March amount in round numbers to about 16,500 tons ; so that the total export of food from Bengal during the six months ending on the 31st March will be about 190,000 tons . The Lieutenant- Governor some time back expressed his belief that the exports up to April would be from 150,000 to 200,000 tons . A recent report states that a fresh demand for the Mauritius is shortly expected in Calcutta, while something more may go from Orissa, so that it is not unlikely that the total will not fall far short of the larger figure named by the Lieutenant-Governor .

Condition of the people .

8. The district narratives (enclosures Nos . 3 , 4 , 5, 6, 7 , and 8 ) show that, with the one exception of Tirhoot , to be noticed more fully below , the condition of the people is decidedly good and hopeful , indeed , this feature is so prominent in the narratives that it may well be the subject of much thankfulness . The accounts of North Chumparun , whero , next after North Tirhoot, the famine is wrong show that by relief works , by selling Government grain , by advancist, grain, and by means of a thorough system of charitable and medical relief, distress is being arrested and relieved ; and , for the present at any rate , the Licutenant-Governor feels confident that the Government agency and means on the spot will suffice to meet the famine. In other districts where distress had threatened actual famine has not yet appeared, and the local officers scem quite confident that their preparations are sufficiently advanced to meet distress when it comes ; and it seems also that the people, though they expect scarcity and very high prices , believe that with the help of Government they will get through their difficulties. From Dinagepore the Magistrate writes that "prices are rising , " and " the supply of grain is becoming oxhausted; " but " there is wonderfully little distress among the people, " * "and it is beyond question that the commencement of relief operations and consequent diffusion of money throughout the country , as soon as there was any apprehension of scarcity , has enabled the peoplo to meet it with confidence and vigour. " From Maldah and Bogra it is reported * * SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8, 1874. 295

that the condition of the people has not changed for the worse. From all parts of Sarun it is reported that there is no general distress , as all the poorer classes are on the relief works, while professional beggars and persons unable to work are receiving charitablo relief. From Monghyr it is reported " that the condition of the people has improved since the rubbee harvest commenced. " No general distress has been reported from North Bhagulpore; and the latest telegraphic report from that tract is, "condition of general population satis- factory. " The Purneah Magistrate writes : " I have not seen or heard of any cases of actual starvation , but the number of cases of distress is increasing, and would have been much larger but for the relief afforded by the Government road and by relief committees . " In South Behar there is at present no distress . The latest report from the Sonthal Pergunnahs is that " the people look well every- where," though in parts the supply of grain is expected soon to fall short . Some days back alarming reports were received about a small tract in Hazareebagh ; but subsequent reports written after the District Officer had visited the spot are roassuring, and it is stated that the local distress which had appeared has been met. In West Bengal, regarding which densely-peopled and to some extent poverty-stricken tract the Lieutenant-Governor has all along been anxious, there are no present signs of probable general distress .

Tirhoot . 9. There is one large exception to the general condition of affairs described in the next foregoing paragraph, and that is the north - eastern portion of the Tirhoot district , where the poorer classes have, in the last month, come upon the relief works in enormous numbers , now, it is believed, approaching to half a million in all , who are receiving relief in some shape .

At the time when the last narrative was despatched , the Lieutenant- Governor was in Tirhoot personally superintending the organisation of relief measures there. He subsequently visited some more of the distressed circlos , and saw the circle officers posted and at work personally instructing them. He then crossed to Patna, where he again consulted with the Commissioner and settled some points with Sir Richard Temple, whom he had asked to meet him there . He saw and instructed some more of the officers sent down from the North- Western Provinces , and completed the arrangements for officering the distressed circles of North Behar , after which he returned to Calcutta .

nant-Governor left Tirhoot . Position of affairs when the Lioute- do not materially differ from those stated in the 10. The result of the Lieutenant - Governor's further inquiries in Tirhoot last narrative. As there stated, it is feared that some cases of starvation to a greater or less degreo have occurred among a few old people who did not come to relief works or relief centres in time, and perhaps in greater numbers among young children who have suffered from bad and deficient nourishment, while the parents were living on scanty food, though not starving. But all accounts agree that nowhere has distress been so great as in the Bahera thana of Durbhunga, to which allusion has already been made there only have the symptoms of severe distress been prominent, elsewhere the cases have been very rare and isolated. The Lieutenant- Governor repeats his hope and beliof that the progress of distress has now been stayed. Very few deaths have been reported as directly due to starvation , not more than ten or twelve in all . The Government of India having asked the Lieutenant- Governor's Deaths from starvation . personal opinion on this point , it was given as follows: --

" In times of scarcity and the early stages of famine it is totally impossible to distinguish deaths accelerated by scarcity and bad food from natural deaths . He has not the least doubt that among a very poor and helpless population, such as exists in North Tirhoot, many people die when food is dear, who would not die , or would not die so soon , if it were cheap . He believes that there have not been deaths from direct starvation among healthy adults; but, from what he saw of the people about Bahera and some of those on the works near Durbhunga, he fours that among such a population a good many old, weakly, and sick poople must have succumbed to insufficient nourish- ment. Similarly, as before mentioned, many young children are much emaciated, even when their parents are not so . The Lieutenant- Governor does not believe 296 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 8, 1874 .

that the parents starve the children to feed themselves, but only that the children are first affected by scanty and bad fare . This result is much aggra- vated by the native habit of nursing children for two or three years . A child so nursed suffers much when the mother fares indifferently, and the food for the child fails . The Lieutenant- Governor has already explained the extreme difficulty of saving sucsuch children, owing to the unwillingness of the parents to bring them to our hospitals and poor -houses . He himself saw the emaciated children carefully fed with milk at the temporary hospital which he arranged at Bahera, but the mothers strongly resisted staying there in spite of every con- cession and arrangement that could be made. Under such circumstances the Lieutenant-Governor cannot but fear that many children of a weak and sickly character dio. Similarly, he believes that some old and infirm people die on account of scanty food . He is happy , however, to say that so far as he saw, and can learn , it is only in the part near Bahera that want has reached the point that many people are emaciated and the weakly must in some numbers die. Every attention is now being given to improve matters there ."

11. The view expressed in the foregoing extract is much borne out by the narratives received since this expression of Recent reports of deaths. opinion was submitted . In the Tirhoot narrativo (enclosure No. 3) will be found mention of reported cases of starvation, into which inquiry was made by European officers , e.g. , the body of an old man in the Hatti relief circle of Durbhanga, who was said to have died from starva- tion, " was in a state of extreme emaciation ;" yet " the son of the deceased did not show any signs of suffering from want of food." In a village of Mudhoo- bunnee three males were reported to have died from starvation, but inquiry on the spot showed that two of the deceased " were children of a widower who was himself in a state of rude and well-nourished health . " In the Rungpore narrative (enclosure No. 5) the Magistrate writes : " There was a report received of a death from starvation in one part of this thannah, and I went to the spot two days ago , but the case was that of an old woman of 80 years of age who died from disease . " It is , the Lieutenant-Governor fears , a fact that occasionally poor creatures come on to the rolief works in Tirhoot in a very reduced state ; but on all the works except perhaps in Bahera the great majority of the people are in tolerably good condition ; and when deaths occur, it is not possible always to say whether they are due, in whole or in part, to starvation. It may be confidently stated as a fact that up to this time the mortality from any causes among the great number of people collected on the roads, & c. , in Tirhoot is singularly small . Indeed, seeing the great numbers and the wretched physical character of many of the old and weakly collected together , the wonder is that there are not more deaths. Among such a population in the best of times there must be deaths of old and reduced people. The district narratives (enclosures Nos . 3-8 ) sufficiently show that all Government officers in the distressed districts are very keenly alive to the obligation which lies upon them to save life and to arrest famine however and whenever they can .

Measuros taken in North Tirhoot . 12. While it is hoped that actual starvation has been stayed ( unless it be in rare instances which escape all our care), our difficulties in regard to the employment of tho people have been much increased in Tirhoot since the last narrative, that is to say, there has been a rush of people to the works in the Mudhoobunnee sub- division in enormous numbers, still greater than that which the Lieutenant- Governor found in Durbhunga ; so much so, that the total numbers have approached a quarter of a million in the Mudhoobunnee sub-division according to the last statements received. It is feared, however , that there has been a good deal of peculation and misstatement in regard to the numbers, which are certainly so large that, coming so suddenly, it is most difficult to deal with them . Mr. Metcalfe has energetically undertaken this task, and it is believed successfully . A large addition has been made to the Public Works staff of the locality, the very best officers being selected and taken from other duties . While the people who come to the works in Mudhoobunnce are so numerous , hey are not at all so reduced as some of those who come to Durbhunga from he neighbourhood of Bahera, but aro generally still strong and healthy, cases of SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8, 1874. 297

great want and omaciation being very exceptional indeed. It appears that while the population now in the northern tracts of the sub- division are comparatively welloff, the whole of the poorer population of those tracts have left their homes and flocked , together with those of the southern portion, to the network of roads near Mudhoobunnee, so that some 130,000 are collected in a small circumference. Mr. Metcalfe found some of them who were in perfectly good condition , but who had tasted of the lax state of things, inevitable when a few among them were in great want,were somewhat inclined to resist any strict counting and due apportionment of work . But he has brought them to order, and done all that can be done meantime. When the Public Works staff is complete as it will be immediately, and the able-bodied aro put on great works under proper discipline, while the weaker are provided for in their own villages, it is hoped that things willwill sottle down into good shape .

13. Having made immediate arrangements for Mudhoobunnee, Mr.Metcalfo has returned to the Durbhunga sub -division, where he Latest intelligence from the spot. reports that the southern relief circles are now work- ingwell and in good order, while the other circles are also being put in good order . Mr. Metcalfe telegraphs on the 31st March, thus:-" In a ride from Bahera through the worst parts, and in a circuit of twenty miles , I did not find aperson without a ticket for relief or uncared for. " In a letter just received, Mr. Metcalfe says : " Lists of all persons on charity have been made out, and as far as I can judge most honestly,by the village Putwarries . Grain has been placed in the hands of the Jeyt ryots , and in the scores of villages where I went, the most wretched are being fed at their homes by their headmen. We have also hit off a solution of the labour difficulty, viz . , that the weak and incapable have been formed into small gangs , and each gang is required to do the same amount as one able- bodied man. The villagers have taken to this piece- work arrange- ment, and it will save Government much loss from cheating . I am working almost entirely through local men, with here and there an exception . The Bahera road is still the difficulty . Many of the villagers have returned to their homes, of the others some are going ; others adhere to the earth-work on the roads . The . gangs have been organised into numbers of 1,200 , and several gangs placed under a Jemadar of one of the Cavalry Regiments , and this arrangement enables us to count the men with little or no difficulty. There is agreat improvement in the appearance of the classes , and I can see nowhere famished persons who are not in some way receiving charitable relief. As regards food the villagers now have no fear, water is their chief anxiety. I sce but little water in the wells . The tanks are dry save the very largest , and unless we have rain, there will be a great scarcity of water. Your instructions

regarding relief in the town through native residents have been carried out." The Lieutenant- Governor trusts he may believe that the difficulties in Durbhunga and Mudhoobunnee have been met, and that we are now well ahead of the famine there as elsewhere. Already upwards of 12,000 persons are returned as receiving charitable relief in the Durbhunga sub- division.

Mrs. Metcalfe has taken charge of the poor people and orphans in a large enclosure fitted up for them at Durbhunga, and most of these poor people are said to be getting quite fat.

In Scetamurhee things continue to be more favorably situated, and the numbers on our hands are not excessive, about 40,000 in all. In the three northern sub-divisions , Mr. Metcalfe states that the whole number on the works , or otherwise receiving relief, is about 400,000, and he hopes that we have reached nearly the maximum that we may expect on our hands in that part of the country. It seems hardly possible that the number in Mudhoobunnee can be very greatly increased (one- third of the population are already on the roads ), but it is impossible to be confident that in other sub divisions the number may not much increase. In tracts where the spring harvest now occupies the people , we must expect, not improbably, a large addition to the number on the works between the completion of the harvest and the commencement of the rains .

The Tirhoot narrativo ( enclosure No. 3) , speaks as if general distress might be imminent in parts of the head - quarter sub-division of Tirhoot. A subsequent 298 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8, 1874 .

letter, however, from the Magistrate of the district, written after visiting the villages named in the narrative, says that the description there given was "exaggerated, and no extreme distress is apparent or expocted . "

The Licutenant-Governor issued various orders in brief form during Governor on Tirhoot affairs , has embodied these in a Note, setting forth the order which he gave and the views which he formed during his visit . This Note is attached ( Appendix C) , and to it the Lieutenant-Governor begs to refer for an explanation of his proceedings and the measures which he has adopted .

15. At paragraph 17 of the last narrative it was mentioned that Sir Richard Temple had visited the Purneah and Sir Richard Temple's tour. Dinagepore districts, and his report on Purneah was then submitted, as also his estimate of the grain requiroments of Dinagepore.

His final minute No. 50 regarding Dinagepore was not received till after the despatch of the last narrative. Itrrative. It is now appended (Appendix D ). The Lieutenant-Governor is happy to find that Sir Richard Temple's report , after inspecting the local arrangements , is altogether favorable, and justifies the belief that the arrangements, both to transport the grain and to give relief wherever it may appear, are very good and satisfactory . Sir Richard Temple has done all that was necessary to complete and systematise these arrangements , both for the Dinageporo district and for the Rajshahye Division generally. In company with the Relief Commissioner and the local officers , he marched through the districts of Rungporo and Bogra ; he again visited Dinagepore; ho has been to Maldah ; and , before concluding his review of affairs in the Rajshahye Division, he conferred with the Commissioner , Mr. Molony, at Rajmehal . His minutes regarding Rungpore , Bogra, and Maldah , and the Rajshahye Division generally, Nos . 47, 48, 51, 53, 54 , and 52, with his second letter on the subject , and the Government orders issued thereupon, willbe found in Appendix E. Sir Richard recommended some additions to the grain allotments of these districts , but it may be said that in regard to the Rajshahye Division as a whole , his reports are very favorable and creditable to the Commissioner and Additional Commissioner, to Mr. Lowis, Magistrate of Dinagepore, and to the local officers generally. It is matter for congratulation that Sir Richard was able to express himself as thoroughly satisfied with the conduct of the Rajshahye officers and with the forwardness of their preparations.

Sir Richard Temple , after meeting the Lieutenant-Governor at Patna and visiting Allahabad to arrange further about reserve carriage, conferred with the Commissioner and the Magistrates of Shahabad and Gya, and sottled the allotment of grain for those districts . On his way down he again visited Bhagulpore and settled the grain allotment for the Sonthal Pergunnahs and Monghyr. Sir Richard Temple's Minutes on these subjects , and also those regarding the organization of a reserve transport train, will be found inAppendices F and G.

It will have been seen from previous narratives that the Lieutenant- Governor has warmly acknowledged the good service which Sir R. Temple has done for the Government of Bengal by visiting the distressed districts, by conferring with local officers of all grados, by ascertaining what was required , by informing the local Government , by giving the necessary orders , and by seeing that both his orders and those of Government were obeyed . Sir George Campbell would again repeat his most cordial acknowledgments of Sir Richard Temple's servicos .

16. Sir Richard Temple has now submitted minutes clearly summarising the present transport and relief arrangements in the three distressed divisions, Patna, Bhagulpore, and Rajshahye. These willbe separately submitted to the Government of India, with a note showing the whole of thethe allotments of grain, and giving a gencral review of the Transport arrangements.

transport arrangements and their working. Here it will suffice to say that the total allotment of grain to the distressed districts amount up to date to 381,819 tons . It only romains to consider whether any further allotrients must be made to the western districts of the Burdwan and Chota Nagpore Divisions, but it is not expected that the SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8, 1874. 299

demands for these districts will be very large . The distressed parts of Chota Nagpore are those which are most accessible, and Burdwan is very accessible. Seeing how favorably the season promises so far , the Lieutenant- Governor has no doubt that with these large allotments , and a certain reservo in case of surprise in any quarter , a very ample, provision has been made. The carriage arrangements are now , as a whole , working very well indeed, and there is overy prospect that the full quantities allotted will be conveyed to, and stored in , the distressed districts in very good time. It was at one time feared that the local carriage would scarcely keep pace with the supply sent up by the railway. Now the difficulty is the other way, ie. , we can hardly sendby railway enough to supply the local carriage . It is hoped, how- ever, that arrangements now made will suffice to get up the whole supply in time. The only serious difficulty is in regard to the supply of North - Eastern Tirhoot , to which so much as 32 lakhs of maunds , or 117,000 tons , have been allotted, and where the carriage has , so far , fallen short of our expectations . But the Durbungah Railway is progrossing admirably , and most opportunely comes to aid us in carrying grain to Durbungah , to which a temporary line of rail will be open this month . The Government is now sanguine that if the traffic lines are not inter- ruptedbefore 15th June, the supply for Tirhoot will be completed by that time. Ifthe rains come in prematurely , the distress will, it may be hoped, be so much curtailed, and the water routes willbe opened . The latest figures and facts regarding grain transport seem to make it certain that if no very unforeseen mischance occur, the allotments to all the other districts will be stored some time before the dates,mentioned for the completion of the Tirhoot allotment, many of them long before. Only a portion of the additional allotment lately made to the Rajshahye Division may be stored in the waterside depôts for distribution when the rains clear the channels .

At Appendix K will be found copies of the Lieutenant- Governor's instructions to Commissioners regarding the distribution of grain during the rains, and his orders , deputing a special officer. Mr. Wickes , C.E. , to enquire into the best means of utilising the water- ways of the distressed districts from the 1st July .

The transport arrangements of Purneah and North Bhagulpore have been organised by Mr. Hankey with remarkable ability and success , and are working exceedingly well . In Appendix H will be found two reports showing what Mr. Hankey has done .

17. The despatches of Government grain from Calcutta to the famino districts umounted ( see Appendix B) during the Despatches of Government grain . fortnight under review to 10,80,936 maunds 38,705 tons ). The total despatches of Government grain to, and receipts in, the distressed districts up to the 31st March amount to 209,913 tons , out of which 131,765 tons had reached their final destination up to the date of the latest returns . The daily dospatches by the East Indian Railway fell , owing to the insufficiency of railway waggons , as low as 1,437 tons and 1,185 tons during the beginning of the fortnight . In consequence of these short despatches , inconvenience was caused at the Purncah and North Bhagulpore river- side depôts , where a powerful stream of carts had been arranged , and where the reserves of grain were very soon exhausted . Since the 26th March , however, the average rate of despatches has been kept as high as 2,479 tons per day, a quantity very little below the maximum which the Government of India desires should be sent daily . The Railway Company have allotted a sufficient number of wagons to work the Govern- ment grain traffic only ; theso wagons, if unloaded promptly at the Behar stations, will como back empty, and thus maintain a constant steady traffic of Government grain. The East Indian Railway have also promised to give the Government grain at Howrah priority of despatch over ordinary goods ; tho ground for such a concession is that a regular stream of Government grain to Behar is necessary to enable the Government to transport its full allotment into the interior before the rainy season, and to be in a position to save the lives of the people who may be expected to bo on its hands . The Lieutenant- Governor only trusts that those arrangements will not interfere with the despatch of private grain , romembering as he does that after all that Government has done for tho 300 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8, 1874 .

worst districts , there still remain many districts where there has been much failure of crops which must greatly rely on privato importation .

The Eastern Bengal Railway has been able to send away daily to Kooshtea and Goalundo all the grain which the Government required to send; the average despatches by that line during the fortnight have been somewhat over 1,000 tons per day.

It will be seen that the numbers employed have increased considerably in other parts of the country besides Tirhoot. In regard to the management of these enormous numbers of work people, the utilization of their labor, and in regard to their punctual payment, the Lieutenant-Governor would invite attention to paragraphs 11-24 of his Note on Tirhoot affairs (Appendix C. Effort has been made, and will still be made, to disperse themto their homes as soon as possible, and to relieve them there. Meanwhile, every nerve is strained to supplyprofessional supervision of all grades, to send up competent clerks of works , to educe local agency for supervision, and to manage the pay- disbursement business to the best interests both of the Government and of the work -people . Since the last narrative was submitted four additional Engineer Officers , and as many as forty additional subordinates, have been ordered to , or have arrived in , the famine districts . Major Trevor , R.E. , has been deputed as Additional Chief Engincer to inspect, direct , and advise upon relief works , in concert with local Engineers and civil officers , with instructions , for which seeAppendix K. 19. In theIn the Mudhoobunnee division , where nearly a quartor of a million

North Behar Railway works . relief works can hardly last more than four weeks ,

were on the works by last accounts , the present for the people seem to dislike tank work, and to rush upon the road works. In this direction the Railway Engincers were already prospecting for the best alignment for a North Behar Railway, to run from Durbliunga eastwards ; and the Government of India, in view of the enormous quantity of available labor, has beenpleased to sanction the Engineers' beginning the railway on the best line which they can, in communication with the local civil officers , finally agree upon. If the survey or reconnoisance is far enough advanced to make such beginning practicable, very excellent and useful work will have been provided for the famine-stricken laborers of Mudhoobunnee . Happily, Mr. Stevens , the Superin- tending Engineer of the Durbhunga Raj property, knows the country well, and has surveyed most of it for the roads now under construction. The selection of a line for a railway in a hurry will therefore be less hazardous than it might otherwise be in a country where the maps aro nearly thirty years old .

20. The average daily number of laborers on the Soane Canal works has risen during the fortnight to 31,282 , as compared Irrigation Department relief works . with 29,589 , as shown in last narrative. The Executive Engineers report that , at the present season, they cannot procure SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 8 , 1874. 301

as many local laborers as they require, inasmuch as people can earn from 3 to 4 annas a day in harvesting . People on the works consume , for the most, the cheaper grains, which they buy locally. Coarse rice can be had from local dealers on the works at 12 seers per rupee . At one place only was there a demand for Government grain, and there one bag of Burmah rice was issued and was taken readily. The number of work -people on the Gunduk Embankments has risen to 28,834 , as against 25,615 shown in the last narrative . Most of the people are doing petty task - work ; they draw their supplies of maize mainly from the local markets . The poople are strong and able to work ; only a few come to the works in a reduced state, and receive gratuitous relief for a time from the Engineers .

Northern Bengal Railway . are 21. The numbers of work-people on the Northern Bengal Railway increasing; about the 15th March there were 9,000 laborers on the railway bank , besides about 3,000 on

the feeder roads . The earth -work completed was equal to a bank 24 miles long and 4 feet high . On the southern section , where the bank is heaviest , but few laborers had yet applied for work , but they were beginning to come in larger numbers. The Engineer- in - Chief is very anxious to complete the railway bank from Julpigoree down to the Ganges this season, and he is arranging to import laborers from other distressed districts . The Magistrate of Bogra also has been instructed to send over for work upon the railway any distressed people of his district who may be willing to take work away from their homes .

Durbhunga Kailway .

22. The railway from Chumpta Ghat, on the Ganges, to Durbhunga is not exactly a relief work , but it was undertaken , and is being rapidly pressed through , in orderorder to carry grain into the most distressed tracts of North Tirhoot . The length of the line at present sanctioned from the Ganges to Durbhunga is 44 miles; on 281 miles of this length the rails had been laid, and the principal bridge was expected to be completed at once. The Engineer- in - Chief expected to lay two miles of rails a day, to complete the remaining bridges, and to be able to run an engine into Durbhunga by the middle of April . From the first of the present month the railway was to carry a certain amount of grain dailyas dailya far as Nagurbustee, two- thirds of the distance from the Ganges to Durbhunga, and soon after the 15th the railway will, it is expected , carry 800 tons of grain daily into Durbhunga. The Government of India has pro- vided that rolling stock shall be ready on the new line in sufficient quantity to carry 800 tons a day, and arrangements are in train for unloading the wagons at stations and starting it off to the de depôts on carts . 23. It has been explained in previous narratives that, in order to carry

Charitable Relief,

out the relief system contemplated by the " instruc- tions" issued by the Government of India , the larger sub-divisions have been sub - divided, and each relief sub-division is parcellod out into circles . Over each circle is placed a competent officer who has to direct and control charitable relief at each village of his circle. The circle officer is aided by one, two, or more assistants. Attached to each circle is a famine hospital and a native doctor ; and it is the duty of the circle officer and his assistant to visit every village in the circle at least once a week , to prepare lists of the people who require relief in every village, and to see that relief is given in one form or another to every person who requires it. The worst districts , Tirhoot, Chumparun , Dinagepore, Maldah , and Rungpore , and parts of Bhagulpore, Purneah, and Monghyr , have been thus parcelled out into circles ; and every circle in each of these districts is manned, and the relief system has been thoroughly and systematically begun. Below the circle officers are employed the indigenous village agency of village headmen , village accountants, and village police, as explained in the Lieutenant- Governor's note (Appendix C , paragraphs 2-7). As has been statod in a previous paragraph ( 13 ) the Additional Commissioner of North Behar, writing from the worst part of Durbhunga, says that in a circuit of twenty miles he did not find a personunrelieved or uncared for. Mr. Howo's account (sce the last paper in enclosure No. 3 ) of the relief arrangements in North Chumparun shows that throughout Ramnuggur the administration of charitable relief in the relief circles is now in good working order, and the people are kept from starving .

To the people on the works the grain has been sold in Tirhoot and also in parts of Bhagulpore.

TheThe precautions taken to prevent its getting into the " hands of monopolists were these : I'st , the rice was sold in small quantities , the " smallest that could be considered wholesale, generally 3 bags, and to as many " petty traders as possible . A few of the more substantial dealers, four in number, "received 7 bags ( about 14 maunds each) . A proclamation was issued several " times (especially on market days) informing the public that Government rice "would be retailodby certain dealers at 11 seors por rupco , and every oppor. " tunity of making this widely known was taken. I also took an agreement " from each dealer in writing to the effect that he should only sell retail in " the town of, and at the bazars round , Ramnuggur at 114 seers per rupee, and " in not larger quantities than 5 seers to any one person . A few also agreed " to retail on our roads around Ramnuggur to our coolies . Finally , I took tho "greatest care, through my establishment and in person, to watch the working "of the measure and prevent abuses . I feel convinced that the grain thus sold " has circulated freely among the people in the manner intended by Government . " Every shop whore Government rice is sold is surrounded by eager purchasers, " and no measure we have taken (not even the advances to ryots, which was "very popular) has tended so completely to restore the confidence of the "people. Villagers from 8 to 10 miles come in on bazar days , and the "rice is rapidly sold." Sales conducted after this fashion through the local dealers will, it is hoped , not restrain trado , or prevent such private importations as may be coming in .gin . In the Lieutenant-Governor's Note ( Appendix C) it i is sufficiently explained that private trade was active, and privato supplies were tolerably abundant, even in the worst parts of Tirhoot .

Advancesto ryots.

26. In the Chumparun and Purneuh districts advances of money and grain to substantial ryots have been begun . In Sarun, Tirhoot, Rungpore, Maldah , Bhagulporo , and Monghyr, very considerable sums have been advanced to zomindars in order that they may help their ryots . The advances of grain made direct to ryots , SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8, 1874. 303

Modical stafffor the famine districts . Governments for twenty additional Native Doctors have been made by the relief circle officers on the security of the ryot's holding or other security. At paragraphs 41-46 of the Lieutenant-Governor's Note on Tirhoot affairs (Appendix C) the subject of advances to ryots is discussed and it is pointed out that there are considerable classes of ryots who will not work on roads , and who yet will requiro advances of grain to carry them through the coming season . Sir George Campbell has desired all officers to make advances to ryots as far as possible on the security of zemindars , middlemen, or head ryots; and looking to the very groat importance of this advance question , he has suggested that villages in the worst tracts be classified according to the manner in which it will be necessary to make advances to ryots . Now that the Relief Circle Agency is getting into full working order, the Lieutenant- Governor has good hope that this business of advancing grain to ryots on the best available security will be properly dealt with during the next two months . 27. During his recent tour Sir Richard Temple had recommended that applicationbe made to the Madras and Bombay to help in the medical relief required in the famine districts . The orders of the Bengal Government on that Minute show that, up to the present date, 102 Native Doctors have been indented for on behalf of the famine districts ; and the Surgeon- General has made available 105 Native Doctors for the duty from the Bengal Pre- sidency. Out of this number from 50 to 70 Native Doctors had reached the famine districts before the end of March, and the rest were on their way . Sufficient stocks of medicines and other necessaries packed in small boxes have been sent to each famine district , so that the Relief Circle hospitals may be found with all fitting drugs and appliances . In case further indents should be made for medical aid, the offer of the Government of India to send for additional native doctors from Madras and Bombay has been accepted. For the supervision of the relief hospitals an additional European medical officer has been sent to each of the sub-divisions in North Tirhoot, and another for North Chumparun . Preparations are thus being made to meet and relieve disease among the famine stricken people. Up to the present date there has most providentially been no epidemic among the people on the relief works or at the chief grain routes , or at the great depôts . There was a little cholera at one time on the grain route to Ghoraghat in Dinagepore through Bugra; but it lasted only for a few days and has disappeared . Diarrhea is said to be prevalent among the people on one length of the Chumparun embankment. If immunity from epidemic continues among the enormous crowds on the relief works till they are dispersed , it will be a very great blessing.

304 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8, 1874 .

NOTE OF THE RESULT OF THE LIEUTENANT - GOVERNOR'S VISIT TO TIRHOOT .

SINCE I have visited the country about Durbhunga where distress has first assumed a severe type , have discussed matters thoroughly with the local officers, and have instructed them both verbally and by rough notes , I think it well to summarise the views which I have formed , and the instructions which I have given on this occasion. In case , unhappily, distress should , at any time , gain on us in other quarters, we must profit by the experience of the places where it has first appeared .

2. It is unnecessary to repeat the advantage of being prepared in time , Distress cannot be inet without using and meeting the influx of distress in such a way as indigenous and voluntary agency to avoid confusion and abuse when it comes on us with a rush. I trust that this is everywhere folt , and that whether serious distress already exists or not , no officers of districts where it may be reason- ably apprehended are wanting in zealous preparations . But I am farther much impressed, by what I have seen in Durbhunga, with this , that distress on a largearge scalescale may, andoften or generally does , come at last somewhat suddenly, and that the Government organization which we can supply will not suffice to meet it in this state unless we also avail ourselves to the utmost of all the indigenous and voluntary agency which the country affords . Our execu- tive machinery is still very deficient in these provinces ; the beginning of such machinery which has been recently made being quite unequal to bear in its very infancy the strain of a great crisis such as this which has arrived. The assistance which we obtain from other provinces is not in a moment adapted to a country and a system entirely different. Our anxioties have been spread over so wide a surface that it has not been possible to concentrate all our power on the points where the worst distress has actually occurred, till the facts have solved all doubt . Moreover , there is this special difficulty, that we have the smallest machinery in the tracts inhabited by a quiet, poor, long- suffering race, who give little trouble in ordinary times . North Behar isis probably the most under-governed country in India; one young man as sub-divisional officer has there ruled and judged a population which would elsewhere have been pro- vided with a full district machinery . (Of the Durbhunga Sub - division , for instance, the population is 867,409. ) Yet here is the very population which comes on us in a body in the most helpless state . I am not surprised , then , that in such asub-division as Durbhunga, notwithstanding the official aid which we have sent , there should have been some failure to meet the rush of the famine when reliance was placed too exclusively on official agency , and there was delay in attempting to work roughly with indigenous agency till the Government agency should be complete. I must strongly impress on all officers , that when- ever and however distress may come upon them, and to whatever extent they may and do properly apply for Government aid , they must not omit to do the vory utmost that is possible by the means which their districts afford.

3. It has been already arranged to portion each sub-division into relief circles under competent Government officers ; what is most wanting is inferior machinery reaching down to each village .

Village agency required.

-It is certainly true that indigenous agency of ono kind is very much wanting in North Behar . The active and intel- ligent middle class found in many districts of Bengal is scarce. Many zemindars have been too much in the habit of letting their villages to mere rent- farmers , and there is often difficulty in getting efficient aid from either zemindars or farmers . But on the other hand, when we go lower down, there is more of the old village machinery than in Bengal . Almost every village hashas its headman or jeyt ryot , and putwari , and therethere are a good many, Brahmins, Mahomedans and others ,-who have a certain amount of native education The census of Behar was almost entirely

taken, and well taken , by the putwaris and head- men, and it seems to me that the machinery which could take the general census may well be used to consus the poverty- strickon SUPPLEMENT TO THE CAL' UTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874. 305

in cach village, mako lists of them, keep relief accounts, and work the village system of relief which the Government desires to adopt .

European planters , 4. The utmost use must be made of the zemindars and their agents and Zemindars and their agents , and dependents . Every possible pressure must be put on those who are at all backward to induce and compel them to do their duty. In North Bohar we have the very great advantage of the assistance of a vory active and energetic body of European indigo planters . The aid which they have most willingly given has been almost everywhere fully used and should be so everywhere.

Local committers and individual mem- bers of such should undertake specific duties. 5. The orders for local committees must be carried out in good faith. It may be true, as some officers assert , that committees are sometimes a sham ; but either acting in committee or , still more, acting separately as individuals , every good resident should be utilised . The best way of beginning is to bring them together in committees , to portion off duties , and let it be settled in the presence of the body of the committee that each man capable of aiding is to undertake some specific function in a specific place , or in a specific area .

6. A very good plan had been formed of appointing to the charge of selected Superintendents of groups of villages, groups of villages paid superintendents, from the people of the country ; the only drawback was the delay in effecting this , pending the completion of a large superior estab- lishment for which European officers were thought to be indispensable. In Mudhubunnee and Hattee about Rs . 15 per mensem or less was allowed to these group Superintendents . The Durbhunga plan which was circulated con- templated a uniform rate of Rs . 30 per mensem Ido not know that paying high and uniformly secures efficiency, and sometimes volunteers will do the work better than paid men.men . I would allow a discretion in regard to pay according to the circumstances and the class of people obtainable in each locality ; but subject to this caution , I entirely approve of carrying out the system of group superintendents . I trust it has now been nearly completed in North Tirhoot .

7. But beyond this , the point on which I have most dwelt is that we must not stop short with the group superintendents , paid Village organisation. or unpaid. We must have a proper organisation in each village. The moment we go beyond the stage of great public works, it is totally impossible to deal with the people in detail unless we have them localised and individualised, village by village and name by name. We cannot send them away from the roads till the village machinery is ready to receive them ; we cannot distinguish people receiving relief by labor , charitable relief, and relief by advances , or prevent the same persons from receiving relief in different shapes till we have all those receiving reliof registered, name by name, according to their villages by some person who knows them, and who can be made responsible for their coming and going . Above all, it will be totally impossible to deal with the people on our hands and wean them oven- tually from dependence on Government unless we have an individual knowledge of them in their villages . I have occupied myself then in impressing on the local officers the necessity of carrying out a village organisation . This should be done as much as possible through the zemindars . No man in the position of a landholder should be absolved from his duties and responsibilities if it be possi- ble to obtain assistance from him. Finally , the headman and putwari must be utilised in each villago. They will keep a nominal roll of all persons in the village receiving relief either on works or gratuitously. Through them the village management may be conducted, and they will be responsible to check abuses. Small rewards according to work done may be promised and given to such hoadmen and putwaris. I authorise the Commissioner to arrango details of their remuneration .

8. It is generally desirable to allow the laborers to choose their own headmen, through whom they are paid, and through whom they deal with Government officers . Sirdars and mates of laborers .

The circle officers may however both make use of and give relief to a certain number of persons unaccustomed to manual labor by appointing them to be petty overseers of charitable relief, watchmen over the grain stores , and so on .

306 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874 .

Utilisation of local police.

9. All the local police are to be subordinate to the circle officers for relief purposes , and may be utilised freely.

Effect of the former . 10. The above arrangements are best carried out before severe distress has . Famine of moneyand famine of food. actually come on us ; but in Durbhunga (partly on account of insufficient action in the direction above indicated ) and in Madhubunnee we have experience of another and farther phase of the subject , viz . that in which very large numbers of people come on our hands for relief in great masses congregated together . I myself saw vast assemblages of this kind near Durbhunga , and by the last accounts still greater numbers were on relief works in the Madhubunneo sub-division , though not so much reduced in condition as the Durbhunga people. It may be said that famines are of two kinds , or at least there are two stages of famine- famine of money or labor famine , and famine of food - supply . It may, in rare cases of isolated districts, happen , as it did in Orissa, that the two stages become one, or that the famine is from the beginning an absolute deficiency of food- supply, the case being, as was stated in regard to Orissa, like that of a ship at seawhich is suddenly found to be short of provisions . But with rare exceptions a money or labor famine precedes a food -famine, that is , food is. to be had for money but it is dear, and the poorer classes, being thrown out of work , have no money to buy it. Very often the famine never goes beyond this stage ; it has almost always been so in the North - Western Provinces , where there are abundant means of communication . Some of our stricken districts being very isolated, we have feared and guarded against a food famine . But so far this has not come upon us . I have seen that even in North Tirhoot the bazars are still supplied ; an active private import (by driblets in bullock- loads) is still going on, and food though dear has not reached what can be called extreme famine prices . Notwithstanding, however, the existence of supplies in the bazars up to date, there is certainly what we must consider wide-spread famine ; in some limited tracts some people have suffered from want of food before coming to our relief works , and in very con- siderable tracts the people have come to the relief works with a rush in very large numbers . Although these simple people very much follow one another like a flock of sheep, they are at first slow to move ; and , even when they have not actually starved , I do think that when they very suddenly come to us in this unusual way in very large numbers, it is a sure indication that what must be called famine is on them , that is, that they have reached the point when they would starve if not relieved.

Provision of work .

11. The first mode of relief for the Government to undertake is clearly (and this has always been recognised) giving work to the poorer classes who are without work and without means . The better classes who do not work on the roads generally do not starve till a later stage ; they have some credit if not some property. While the producing and wages-earning classes maintain themselves , most of those dependent on them, even the beggars, are for the most part in some sort maintained also. Rich natives do a good deal in this way, and I saw two or three faqueers living on a gang of relief laborers in Tirhoot . At any rate, the beggars and helpless people who come on mere charity, and are not supported by private liberality, may well be provided for in the early stages of scarcity by the relief committees without a very large Government organisation .

In the present stage then the public works have been our most active care. Under previous instructions a good deal had been done in most districts to prepare plans of such works for emergencies , and more has been done since thepresent famine threatened. In those districts where the numbers seeking relief are not very excessive, I believe that our preparations have been sufficient; but in some districts where no very large special works are available, and enormous numbers have suddenly come on us , it cannot be said

From what I saw of the activity of petty private trade, my impression is that for some time to come the bazars wouldbe supplied in this way if it wore not that the pressure on carriage for the transport of Government grain is beginning to interfero very seriously with the means of private traffic . Much complaint is now made that private people cannot obtain carriage, and that the bullocks and donkeys which hitherto supplied the bazars are taken up by the contractors . This is no doubt a great evil , and the local officers should do all that is possible to avoid it .

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874. 307

that either the plans of our works or our establishments are sufficient to enable us to obtain full money's worth from the labor of a needy multitude, among whom little organisation is, in the first instance, possible. In fact, there is no denying that in some of these cases our organisation has not beon such as to prevent the occurrence of what must be called great abuses , judged by the standard of ordinary times .

of population to works . 12. In Behar , at any rate, women and children come on the works quite as readily as men ; and it is because the whole family works, or pretends to work , that somewhat low wages with dear food are not incompatible with an almost liberal measure of relief, measured by the fare to which these poor people are accustomed a very low one . Wherever some of the people have begun to starve, or nearly to starve , it is impossible to refuse work to all applicants, whether really capable of real work or not. The result of the suddenness of the rush upon us in some places , and the necessity of being on the safe side where famine has threatened , has been that we certainly have, and to some extent must still have , great multitudes on our works doing very little real work and very imperfectly supervised. But I have felt that this is better than letting the peoplo starve , and that it must continue till we can sift them out and Mode of dealing with a sudden rush deal with them in detail : we cannot send them away till this is done. At the same time, I am clear that this cannot continue, and the first work which I have set Mr. Metcalfe , ( the Additional Commissioner) and the local officers to do is to make arrangenients for dispersing these multitudes . Fortunately , the climate at this season is favorable; the people seem not to dislike the assemblages in which they are gathered, and I hope no great harm beyond a somewhat prodigal expenditure of money will result for a short time . But beyond this it must not go. To begin with, although , as I have said, I believe that these sudden rushes indicate real want and rapidly-approaching famine , still, when under pressure of such necessity a lax system is established, and every one , down to the smallest child, gets paid for the merest pretence of work (with probably a good many abuses besidos ), the thing becomes too attractive , the whole country tends to come on the works , the numbers threaten to be absolutely overwhelming . The people, too, become demoralised ; works where real work is exacted are deserted, and many evils follow. If disease or climate do not disperse such multitudes with possible calamitous results , the case might be still more impossible to deal with when the rains and cultivating season approach. It would be very difficult to get back to their homes and to regular labor people accustomed to such a system, while it would be impossible to continue it in the rainy season .

ingmasses. 13. A vast multitude , treated in the gross , through mates and other head- men, cannot be individualised and dealt with according to their position and needs : we cannot deal with them till we know who they are . In all such cases of unmanagcable multitudes on the roads , the first thing to do is what I have Arrangements for distributing labor ordered to be done in Durbhunga and Madhubunnée , viz. to sift them out according to their families, villages, and tracts of country ; to separate those who wish to do, and are capable of doing real work on the large works from those who wish to go home or are not fit for work; to put the former on regular works on a regular system , where good wages are paid but a reasonable tale of work is exacted ( less than in ordinary times, but still a fair quantity', and to put the latter either on light work or on charitablo relief.

Division of works into two classes .

14. The better to carry out this system, I have directed that the works should be divided into two classes ; thus-

(1) Works under Public Works or other competent officers , on which real labor shall be exacted and full wages paid.

(2) Works under circle officers , on which the labor given is less effective, and for which superior professional supervision is not required. The rates of wages on these would be more subsistence rates, unless easy piece-work is given for liberal terms .

The large roads now going on under public works officers , and other large works , irrigation works , and the like, should be put under the first head .

308 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL &, 1874.

Even on the regular works it is right that, besides the hard work for the able-bodied men, work of a lighter character, but still real, should be pro- vided, so that the families of the laborers and others who wish for regular work should be provided for. This is generally done, and I rely on the Public Works and other officers to arrange itt discreetly.

works . 15. Although on the regular works we cannot prevent a considerable flue- Proper registry of laborers on large tuation and coming and going , it will be desirable, as much as possible, to note the names and residence of the laborers, and to classify them under fixed and recognised headmen as persone regularly employed and paid Besides making it much more easy to deal with them and prevent abuses in the prosent, this will greatly facilitate our operations when we come to send home at the proper season, with a sufficient store, those who have well worked on the roads , at the season when there is nothing else to be done.

16. The mode of payment to be adopted is a matter of extreme difficulty, regarding which much loeal latitude must be Mode of payment on large works . allowed . Various modes have been tried with varying success. Prima facie, in the case of very poor people, it seems most desirable to pay daily ; but when the multitude is very large it is physically impossible to pay, by trustworthy agency, each individual daily either the laborers are grouped in gangs , and payment made to each gang, or payment is really mademade to the headmen of large numbers of matos,whowho distribute to the mates, and the mates to the laborers , in a way which admits of little check. As soon as the people are regularly classified and put into permanent gangs, it will not be so difficult to pay each gang daily ; and when they have worked some time and are not living quite from hand-to-mouth , it will much facilitate matters if they are found to be well content with payment every two or three days . One great and increasing difficulty about daily payments to each individual laborer is the enormous number of copper pice required. Where these run short it may be permitted to pay in grain; but from all Ihave seen, I have no doubt that, as long as money can be had, it is far best for all parties to pay in money and let the laborers buy either from the Government shops or privately as they prefer .

Care shouldbe taken that payment is not made in such a manner as to make it the interest of mates and headmen to tout for and bring together an unnecessary multitude. I fear that when we are oppressed by too great numbers , the tendency of such a system is to increase the numbers and bring the whole population on our hands. When we are not able to reject people or to exact real work , every creature that can be mustered passes for so much profit to the mate and headmen, and if they can pass muster two or three times over so much the better for these men . Effort shouldbe made to pay if not individually at least in small squads, and not to distribute money in a wholesale way.

17. It is to be thoroughly understood that not only are the offi- Responsibility of civil officers in cers of the Public Works Department (omployed connection with large works. in districts where scarcity prevails wholly and absolutely under the Commissioners and superior civil officers of districts on all points in which they may think it desirable to interfore, but that everywhere the local sub-divisional officers and their assistants are directly responsible to see that payments are properly made and work given in the manner most conducive to relief. It is expected that in this respect they and the Public Works officers will work in thorough accord. The Commissioner or Additional Commissioner on the spot will lay down general rules on which the Public Works officers will act subject to the orders of the Magis- trate of the district. The Public Works officers will ordinarily arrange for payment of the men employed under them; but the local civil officers will inspect the works , test the payments of the Public Works subordinates , and seethat all is right. If not right they will at once communicate with the Public Works officers, and if necessary, with their own official superiors . I have givenfull authority to the Commissioners to authorize the entertainment of any local establishments for the proper management and payment of the laborers that may be necessary to supplement the Public Works establishments.

309 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8, 1874.

18. It is most necessary that efficient sanitary arrangements should be Sanitary arrangements . made on all large works ; and particular attention should be given to this .

cirale officere. 19. The village works under circle officers must necessarily be conducted, Village and minor works under for the most part, by non -professional people ; but Ihave arranged that in each relief circle an officer should be specially charged to look after the works in the circle. There has been much correspondence regarding these village works . The result is that , by aiding zemindars and otherwise, we must promote the employ- ment of the people to the very utmost, but that in the last resort in very distressed traets, where the people are likely to starve and no one can be induced to undertake works for hishis own benefit or from public spirit , the Government must employ the people by undertaking such works (excavating tanks and the like) as are most beneficial to the general community. I rely much on the tact and energy of the local officers to make these arrangements for the best. Even when Governmentment pays for the works they may advantageously beplaced under village headmen and others locally interested ; we want to give the people work near their homes, and , if the headmen are interested, they will carry the work out all the more readily. Strangers coming to village works are to be registered in the village where they labor and live for the time.

20. To the distressed poor of both sexes the task- work system cannot be generally applied. As much work must be obtained Limitations on task - work system . for them as they can fairly do , and no more. Any stringent enforcement of a labor test may repel these people and cause. ultimate danger to life. But it is better to obtain a little, even the smallest amount of work from those who can work, than to give gratuitous relief. The offering of piece- work is very good whenever the people will accept it , the terms offered being, as has been said, liberal .

Returns of laborers . 21. Returns of laborers on works in each circle are to be made by the circle officer ; the number on each class of work being distinguished. This is to be separate from the Public Works Department returns. The Public Works officers are to return the number of their laborers to sub -divisional officers, who will combine the whole in one return .

22. With respect to Public Works establishments, it is evident that , with the enormous number of people now coming on Public Works establishments . the roads and other works , even after a large proportion of them have been sifted out and put to village works under the civil officers , the labor and responsibilities of the Public Works officers must be very great, and the staff of officers must be increased as much as possible. I have arranged that a separate Executive Engineer is to be provided for each of the sub- divisions in Tirhoot in which distress is very great, especially that Durbhunga and Madhubunnee should each have an officer of the rank and powers of Executive Engineer, the very best available. As many Assistant Engineers as possible have been, and are being , supplied; also a number of subordinate officers ; but I agree with an opinion which I have seen expressed that the famine country is hardly the place for a European overseer with a large family and imperfect acquaintance with the language. We are sending all the fit men we can, and they should be sent as unincumbered as possible, but for the rest I continue to repeat what I have all along said, that much inferior agency must be extemporised in the country itself, and made the best of by the utmost tact and discretion in selecting and using it. There is one kind of subordinate agency which is much wanted, clerks of the works, that is , intelli- gent men acquainted with accounts , who can make up and check the returns. For this purpose Bengallees are very well suited. I have instructed the Chief Engineer to do his utmost to send up good men of this class. I fear that there must be much laxness and peculation in many places , and as we get things into order and establish some system , it is of the first importance that the executive officer should be assisted by competent men capable of keeping their offices and testing statements of numbers , payments , &c .

310 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8, 1874 .

23. Superintending Engineers have been appointed to the several districts in which large relief work is going on , but they Deputation of Major Trevor . are comparatively new to the duty, and in order to advise and assist them, to see that the utmost that is possible is done to render the great amount of labor now in our hands as beneficial as possible by selecting the best large works, and to introduce on the works the best system possible under the circumstances, it has been arranged , in communication with the Government of India, that ( since the Chief Engineer of this Government, Colonel Nicolls , has his hands more than full ) an Engineer Officer of experience and tact, Major W. B. Trevor , should be deputed for the general inspection and regulation of the various relief works . He will proceed to the different distresseddistressed divisiondivisions with the powers of a Chief Engineer, to be exercised in communication with Colonel Nicolls, will confer with the Commis- sioners and Superintending Engineers, will give them the best advice and assist- ance he can, and will direct operations in concurrence with the Commissioners. The difficulty of finding sufficient work for the enormous number of laborers in Tirhoot and some other districts , is much pressing on us. It turns out that in many places the laborers dislike tank -work and insist on flocking to the roads. We must reduce them to order and discipline, and make themdo the work most fitting for them to do; but still it is a great object to maintain large works sufficient for the employment of all the laborers who legitimately seek regular work and submit to regular discipline, while at the same time the opportunity of permanently benefiting the country should not be neglected. A chief duty of Major Trevor will be to inquire whether any additional great works can be undertaken with advantage in the districts where we have hundreds of thousands of laborers .

24. It has been suggested that as a continuation of the Railway from Champta Ghat to Durbhunga will certainly be Railway extension. much wanted to the north-east through the great rice-countries where famine is now so severe, and to the north - westst through north-western Tirhoot into Chumparun, it would be most desirable if these lines could be settled and the earth- work executed now . This is under consideration, and immediate steps are being taken to lay out the line, if it be possible, in time to employ the famine laborers upon it .

25. The best attention is also given to irrigation works, those connected with the Gunduk embankments and others . One Irrigation works . canal behind the embankment has been begun , and the Government of India has determined to begin the line of the proposed large Gunduk canal through the Chumparun district as far as the Bagmattee river. Further inquiries are being made to ascertain whether some further local irrigation channels can be undertaken in Western Tirhoot , Sarun, and Chumparun .

26. While I believe Individualisation essential to manage . ment of charitable relief and advances to ryots. that our employment of the people on works of various kinds, to the extent that they are now coming upon us , will lead to embarassing results inthethe endend unless we individualise them , I am sure that the two other main forms of relief charitable allowances and advances to enable cultivators to maintain themselves are impossible to carry out as it is intended without a good system of dealing with individuals through responsible village heads .

The only form of gratuitous relief which can be given somewhat indis- criminately , without leading to great abuse and future difficulty, is cooked- food. It is clear that the people of Behar will not accept this form of relief in any numbers till they are very much straitened. It is not that the lower orders have much caste-many of them will eat almost anything; but they are curiously timid , afraid that we will ship them off beyond seas and what not, and very averse to altering their habits. At any rate, the Government has resolvedred that the cooked-food test shall not be very largely applied ; that assistance shall be given in other shapes , for which a great organization is necessary . Before going further then, I revert to the arrangements made for organizing relief down to the village and the individual.

these circles. But it seems to me that there is among some of the local officers in Behar a somewhat unreasoning prejudice in favor of European, and against native, agency ; and that the harm which has resulted from delay in Durbhunga, and perhaps some other places, has been caused by too much keeping everything waiting for European officers , both as regards general relief arrangements and public works. It is really quite impossible that a properly efficient European Superintendent can be supplied for each circle and each work- I mean efficient at all points; combining sufficient experience , knowledge of the country, tact, and judgment . So many of our Bengal districts are more or less pressed or threatened that we cannot supply very large numbers of competent European officers. We sent to the famine districts all we could , and I believe as many as the local officers asked for . We have denuded all our districts not threatened to I may almost say the last man. The note in the Government of India most readily acceded to all that we asked in the way of assistance. A large number of military officers were placed at our disposal for both transport and relief work ; and , in addition to some competent civil officers previously obtained from the North - Western Provinces , some civil officers were ordered from the Punjab, the Central Provinces , and Bombay. Authority was also given to the local officers to engage all the competent Europeans to be obtained among the resident European community of planters and others , and several gentlemen who offered themselves in Calcutta were engaged and sent up. The total number of superior officers specially employed on relief is as follows:-

experience among relief officers . Many of the officers assigned had, however, a long way to come ; and when they arrived it cannot be said that all the circles were efficiently filled. The fact is that , for such a system as is proposed, we want not only energetic and painstaking officers, but also an intimate knowledge of the Necessity of revenue and other people and of agrarian affairs, land tenures, rent, and revenue . It is only exceptional military officers and experienced civil officers who are well fitted to deal with such matters . In Behar the grain transport operations are of enormous magnitude and importance. These operations, including the putting and maintaining in order the roads used for the grain traffic , are in charge of a staff of officers under Colonel Macgregor, a most excellent and energetic officer ; and to complete his arrangements about all the most effective military officers who arrived were required and absorbed. Some of these officers are rendering extraordinary service, Major deKantzow for instance Some of the unemployed officers of superior rank proved tobe hardly well fitted for duties of a civil character, and have charge of the less important ghats and changing stations . Altogether, it happened that though this GovernmentGovernment had, in its distribution list , assigned a good many military officers for relief work, I found not one so employed in Tirhoot , and I believe only one in the whole Patna Division ; while only one more seemed to be available . Of the gentlemen casually entertained, some proved well qualified in their degree , others not so well. The civil officers from the Punjab, Central Provinces , and Bombay , proved to be generally very young men , and they had much to learn of a new country and language. In fact, I may almost say that the only officers of sufficient experience and know- ledge available in Behar were the civil servants belonging to Bengal and the North-Western I'rovinces , and a few uncovenanted sub-divisional officers. I have 312 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874 .

placed in charge of circles all civil servants who are of more than a few months' standing; but I very soon felt strongly that a good and efficient native officer would be far more fitted for our purposes than a very inexperienced European , and that both to fill circles not provided for and to assist the European officers , we must get as many good natives as possible . I am sure the Commissioner of Patna does not share the prejudice I have alluded to regard- ing the exclusive employment of European agency in places of trust ; but all the districts of his division having suffered, few of the existing officials could be spared for extra and special work ; and the tehsildarce system not being in vogue, it is very difficult to extemporise an efficient native agency. The Bengallces are very different in language and habits from the Hindustanees ofBehar.

28. In the dilemma in which I was placed, besides ordering up a few selected Bengallee Deputy Collectors and authoris- Aid given by Sir W. Muir . ing the Commissioners of the Presidency and Burdwandivisions to entertain and send up a few temporary men for famine service, 1 appealed to Sir William Muir for the loan of some native officers fitted for the work . Sir William responded most promptly and handsomely. Sixteen selected men were at once placed at my disposal , more than half of whom arrived and were posted by myself while I was on the spot .

Assistants to circle officers . 29. 1 was thus enabled to complete or nearly to complete the circle officers required for Northern Behar. Under them assistance was necessary, especially under the less experienced European officers . Some of the native officers from the North- Western Provinces; some temporary Bengallee assistants , and others , were posted for this purpose, and Sir Richard Temple, who was going to Allahabad about the reserve carriage, promised to trytry to get a few more men from thence. A selection is being made from the ranks of candidates for the Native Civil Service at Hooghly and Calcutta. A number of native officers of the army had been promised by the Commander- in-Chief, and their despatch arranged in communication with Sir Richard Temple. Though not ordinarily fitted for independent civil duties , these officers may be most useful assistants, and they are being distributed accordingly. Above all, full authority has been given to entertain every man capable of rendering good service whom the country itself affords . Without a good proportion of men possessed of local knowledge, foreigners must be at agreat disadvantage.

Agency in each circle .

30. By means of these arrangements it is my desire that in each impor- tant circle the officer in charge should have ( 1 ) a capable assistant, generally a good native or occasionally a junior European officer ; (2 an officer specially charged with those local works which are not put under the Public Works Department, and whose duty it will be to see that the jeyt ryots and others in charge of these carry them out honestly ; that people are paid regularly ; that they do not get relief twice over, and generally to see that the system works : and ( 3) an inferior native assistant .

Deputy Collectors and full tehsildars from the North - Western Provinces should generally be put at the head of circles. Where experienced officers become available, they may be placed over junior officers hitherto in charge without any disparagement to the latter .

Group Superintendents . 31. Under the circle officers come the Superintendents of village groups already alluded to, that is to say , over each group of villages there will be some one in charge to look after the relief operations generally in the group , to manage the operations at the grain stores , and to keep the circle officer informed of what goes on. Where a local man, a zemindar, or planter, or zemindar's tehsildar , will undertake this personally , or through his agents , such may be employed, but it must be clearly understood what each undertakes to do .

Village organisation .

32. Finally , each village will have its own organisation. Lists of zemin- dars, headmen, and patwarees of each village are to bepreprepared; it is to be ascertained whether each will do something, and each is to be pressed to do so either personally or through SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874. 313

agents. I cannot too much impress on all officers , as I have impressed on those at Durbhunga, the necessity of attending to this , of not acting as if they wore in a strange or hostile country, but of utilising those whose duty it is to assist the people, and finally through them , or in the last resort without them , to get at the headmen and representatives of the people themselves . I am very glad to see that Mr. Howe, a very efficient North -Western Provinces' officer, in charge of the worst part of Chumparun , has already organised this system without waiting for the completion of a large paid estab- lishment . He says : " The sub - divisional committee of Ramnuggur, with the two sub -committees at Bulthur under Colonel Boulderson and at Bagaha, aro now in full working order. The tuppah (Bulthur) has been divided into halkas (circles) , and each member is to take charge of one. Lists of all the poor requiring relief are prepared by the putwarees ( village accountants) and tested by the member- in-charge of the halkas , who is also responsible for the distribu- tion of food to those in the lists, whom he, after examining, finds unfit for work . I think it is better at first to do what is absolutely necessary , viz . to support those who otherwise must starve , and gradually to porfect the system in introducing the various rules laid down for committees . An organized village- to- village relief system has been formed , which will effectually relieve those who most require it . Ire it. I am much assisted in this tuppah by Sheik Salamut Ally, an influential and public- spirited zemindar. In this tuppah the headmen of each village and the putwarees receive a certain amount of food sufficient to last thethe poor of his village of whom he receives a list (an extractext from my register), andand whom he is bound to supply twice a week . The greatest safe- guard against abuse is the fact that the poor themselves know how much they are entitled to ; and secondly , there is constant inspection both by Sheik Salamut Ally, who is a member of the committee, and myself. In this way this important tuppah is provided for , and similar steps for the others are also being taken." Mr. Howe seems really to be meeting the famine under very difficult circum- stances . In Seetamurhee also, the sub -divisional officer , Mr. O'Reilly , by availing himself of thethe help of indigo planters , zemindars, and others , seems to have done very much, and to have kept pace with famine . But in Durbhunga, under a very energetic and meritorious sub - divisional officer-but where committees and committeemen and indigenous agency were practically not used-while European officers were expected in order to start a system admirable in theory , the famine got ahead of us. I am sure that voluntary and indigenous agency may and should be drawn out . The efficiency of an officer in a difficult position, especially under such circumstances as those which now surround us , depends quite as much on tact in drawing out assistance as on individual effort . 33. No one could and would more efficiently superintend the relief Aid given to Patna Commissioner . oporations than Mr. Bayley, the Commissioner

of the Patna Division ; but his charge is an enormous one . He has upwards of 13 millions of people under him, some suffering from famine and all from scarcity. He is responsible for all the enormous transport and other operations. Clearly he requires assistance . The Tirhoot district, too , is quite unmanagcably large, and the mass of office detail thrown on the Magistrate - Collector makes it impossible to look to him for a sufficient active superintendence all over his district in times like these . I have then appointed Mr. C. Metcalfe, an officer in whose Mr. Met calfe's duties .

great energy and executive efficiency I have much confidence, to be Additional Commissioner of the Patna Division under Mr. Bayley, who will delegate to him any portion of the Commissioner's duties from time to time. It is arranged that Mr. Motcalfe is for the present to devote all his energies to getting into order the northern sub -divisions of Tirhoot, where wido famine most threatens us and hundreds of thousands of people are already on our hands. Mr. Bayley met me and thoroughlydis- cussed with me the state of affairs . I entirely rely on his judgment and know- ledge. Mr. Metcalfo went with me to Durbhunga and through the worst circles . I have explained to him my views and wishes , and left him to carry them out . While the circle establishments are being completed and getting into order, he is dealing with the multitudes collected on the roads . As soon as they are sifted and classed , and the circle establishments are ready to receive them , all, except 314 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 8 , 1874 .

the able-bodied fit to earn good wages on the roads, will be drafted to their villages, and there the scheme of relief, prescribed by the Government of India and this Government, will be worked out . For all famine and executive matters the sub-divisional officers of the distressed sub-divisions of North Tirhoot will be directly under Mr Metcalfe . Their formal reports and returns will be sent to the Magistrate of Tirhoot for embodiment in the district returns (so long as Durbhunga remains a part of Tirhoot, ) but the whole active control will rest with Mr. Metcalfe, exercising the full powers of a Commissioner , but subject to the general control of the Commissioner of the division , who will be fully informed of his proceedings . Mr. Metcalfe will ordinarily report to the Commissionens to Government direct on emergencies only .

34. When the arrangements we are now making in the most distressed dis- tricts are complete, I trust that we shall be able to Aim of the organisation as a whole. lay our hand on each person requiring relief accord- ing to his residence and circumstances . We shall be able to say in each village-here are so many persons found to be fit objects for relief ; so many are doing work of some sort ; so many are receiving a charitable allowance of food; so many have received or will receive advances to enable them to continue their cultivation ; so many residents of this village are absent working on such a public work. On the public works again , I hope we shall be able to say - here is a gang from such a porgunnah and a gang from such another pergunnah ; so many (name by name) from such a village, and so many from such another. It is only when things are so arranged that we shall be able to deal with the needs of the people in detail , and to supply their wants without the great abuses which must attend indiscriminate liberality to great multitudes whom we cannot distinguish .

35. Supposing then the system to be fully carried out, the various forms

Employment in the way of spinning, weaving, & c. , is as before arranged to be given as much as possible to those who cannot go on the roads If we have sufficient information and sufficient machinery, charitable relief is only a question of discretion and honesty. Cooked foodbeing reserved for special casos , it remains to give a fair allowance of food gratuitously or at a reduced price , and so much money as may be necessary to supplement it, to those really in need of such assistance . This will be done through the local committees as much as possible , every possible use being made of individual knowledge and public spirit. As I said to the Durbhunga Committee , " The Lieutenant- Governor wished to urge on them the propriety of their taking an active share in the relief measures now in operation. He did not want them to give money merely, but to undertake, each according to his ability , the specific duty of looking after a certain defined portion of the town, and managing the distribution of the Government relief, so that no poor person should perish for want. He wished this not only for the direct good , but as an example to others . Those who could not themselves personally supervise could appoint responsible relatives or subordinates to work for them , and could see that these did the work efficiently . If each member undertook the charge of a muhulla of the town it would be a great relief to the Government officers , and would , he felt sure , secure an efficient and adequate administration of the funds and stores . Those of the committee who had lands in the interior would, he hoped, also heartily assist the circle officers by themselves acting and giving instructions to their gomastahs , patwarees , head ryots , & c . , so that they might help by every means in their power . The committee should be made really and practically operative- the town divided among working members , and the distribution of town relief undertaken by them, with any necessary subordinate agency working under their supervision. " and

36. Although the use of cooked food is no longer prescribed as a general test of necessity, it is still an important thing to have food in this shape ready for those who are Cooked food and special diet . actually starving, especially on their first arrival at the depôts .

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 8 , 1874. 315

And it is especially necessary to nurse and feed on careful and nutritious diet people who are already reducedby scanty food. Many children have so suffered, and every inducement should be offered to their parents to bring them to be tended in comfortable poor- houses , where every concession is made to them. With respect to the food , I gave the following directions at Durbhunga:

(a) Cooked food is always to be given at once to all starving people who desire to have it, till at least other arrangements can be made for them. This to be done without waiting for inquiries .

( 6) Special food is to be given, under superintendence of the native doctor, to starved infants and other persons in a very reduced stage. Milk and other luxuries to be provided for such cases.

(c) In case of people much roduced, it is not enough to keep body and soul together. For the next two months arrangements mustbe made to issue to the more feeble once a week , or occasionally, a little ghee, or, failing that, oil and such like strengthening luxuries .

(d) One pice per diem for salt , & c. , is to be given with the allowance of grain to very poor people who receive uncooked food to take home.

essential.

37. I may add that the cooked food given Proportion of Nitrogenous grain should not be rice only ; a fair proportion of dhal or similar nitrogenous food should be given, and salt of course .

To the very poor, who depend sololy on public charity, a proportion of nitrogenous grain , i.e. , pulses , & c . , should as much as possible be given with three parts of rice. But as regards the population not reduced to the lowest stageofof pauperism , I found so comparative an abundance of the nitrogenous grains in the bazars, the famine is so much, as regards food, a rico famine ( the little rice produced being probably reserved for seed ) that I hope if Govern- ment supplies rice the people will find the rest for themselves .

Feeding Hospitals. 38. Reverting to the feeding hospitals for the reduced and weakly I was much impressed with the necessity of organising these efficiently wherever there is actual starvation, or something approachingto it ; and quite as much for this purpose as for sanitary supervision I telegraphed emergently for a very efficient Civil Surgeon to be sent to Durbhunga. The Surgeon-General very promptly arranged to send Dr. Birch . That officer arrived without delay, took up his duties most zealously , and I believe that much will be effected by his active devotion to the subject. At every circle where the distress is severe, feeding hospitals should be established under a good native doctor, and his proceedings should be well watched Dr. Birch quite understands my views, and I hope he will make arrangements which will serve as a model. He will also of course much look to sanitary arrangements.

Sanitary inspection .

39. The Government of India has suggested that a superior officer should be deputed for sanitary inspection of the various distressed districts . At this moment a change is taking place in the office of Sanitary Commissioner for Bengal but as soon as the new Sanitary Commissioner, Dr. Coates , arrives , he will be deputed on this duty.

40. If our arrangements as above described are effective , we may hope to Difficulties when the rains set in . in case they remain on our hands after the rains

But carry the people over the dry season . commence, it may be much more difficult to deal with them . In a moderate famine when , according to former practice, Government has given moderate relief hedged in by tolerably severe tests , itit hasha usually happened that as soon as the uctive agricultural season commences , most of the able- bodied laborers disperse of their own accord, and only the helpless paupers are left on our hands. But I believe that on this occasion, in the pure rice countries north of the Ganges, the failure of the crops has been complete to a degree very seldom equalled . We are now undertaking relief on a much more liberal scale, and on much more indulgent principles , less hedged in by strict tests , than ever was attempted before. There seems much reason to expect that, in North Tirhoot at 316 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8, 1874.

any rate, a very large proportion of the population will come ( I may say have already come on our hands , and the difficulty of returning them to self- support will no doubt be proportionately greater than on former occasions . It willcertainly be quite impossible to continue in the rains large public works capable of employing vast numbers , and it would be most inexpedient if it were possible. Above all things , we must not wean the people from self- supporting agricultural labour. In truth , for the labour we now employ we get a very insufficient money's worth ; and from a financial point of view it would be no very over- whelming addition to our burdens if for a portion of the time that we must support the people who come to our works wo get no return at all . It is the demoralisation of the people likely to result from supporting them without work that is to be feared . I still hope that very many will go off when the rain falls and they can cultivate, but it is impossible precisely to predict what will happen in a phase of things which is new. It is some consolation for any abuses (receipt of relief twice over and the like) which may occur that it is so much money thrown among the poorer classes and may the better enable them to support themselves when the time for self-support comes .

or food. 41. To establish a system of advances to ryots sufficient to ensure Suggestions as to advances of money their both supporting themselves and employing the labouring population would be a work attended with very great difficulties . To some extent this must and will be attempted; but we are only at the beginning of our difficulties in that respect. I am inclined to think that a suggestion on this subject of Mr. Lowis ofDinagepore , adopted by Sir Richard Temple, contains the germ of a plan whichmay be applied not only to some ryots , but to all other labourers . Mr. Lowis says, inin effect , " make advances to those ryots who , by labouring on our roads show their necessity. When they have thus worked for us, advance them wages for the time they must be absent carrying on their cultivation . " I would not confine this to ryots . If the individualizing system is carried out fully , and if we know who our labourers are, where they reside, and where they work, we may be able to say to a poor man when the rains commence, we now know that you are no impostor, but a person willing to work for your bread ; we can't employ you longer, it would ruin the country if we could ; here is a couple of months' supply of food ; we give you that, take it home , but now you must support yourself ; we have done with you . Seeing the amount of grain we are storing, and the scale on which our establishments are now being formed , I think this might be done in some parts of the country . In fact , all our proccedings for the next few months would be not only to give immediate relief, but a sifting and sorting of the people with a view to a final distribution of assistance and concluding with them at the commencement of the rains . In the eastern districts , where cultivation commences carly, the system of advancing wages to ryots who have been working for a time, to enable them to go home and start their cultivation , should be tried at once as Sir Richard Temple has authorised . In the case of substantial ryots so receiving advances , it may be stipulated , as Mr. Lowis proposes , that the advances are to be repaid when the recipients get a crop . From the poorer labourers repayment cannot bę expected .

Advances to ryots who will not work on roads.

42. In North Behar, at any rate, it appears that there are many of the higher caste ryots too proud to work , and too poor to carry on efficiently thethe work of another season without assistance and to employ the laborers who ordinarily work for them and who can only be absorbed by such employment . The subject of advances to ryots of the higher class who are, it is hoped, likely to repay, has been very prominent in all our famine discussions . For these classes ofryots Mr. Lowis' labor- test will not suffice; and something more is required, not only for their own sake, but for that of the poor laboring population dependent on them . I am much inclined to agree with the officors of the Dur- bhunga Raj , who say that it is better not to call an advance what we are not likely to get back. A laxness in regard to promised repayments would have a most demoralising effect on the country, and would shake the whole credit system on which so much depends . I , therefore , strongly think that where there is not good and reasonable prospect of repayment, it is far better avowedly to UPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 8, 1874. 817

give something than nominally to advance what will probably not be repaid . Government will be at a great disadvantage in such transactions , it will not have the many means of enforcing repayment that private persons accustomed to such transactions have, and borrowers will much more readily make excuses to a Government whose resources they think unlimited. People who can give really good security may get the advances they require from private sources , and will generally prefer so to get loans in this way , if they really mean to repay. In spite of all that is said of exorbitant interest, &c. , I have found that natives generally prefer their own mahajuns to Government. If this be so, Government will have for the most part as applicants for advances only those who offer bad security or no security.

43. With the best and largest Government machinery & great system of advances by Government to the ryots would be difficult in the extreme; with our want of revenue machinery , I fear that on a large scale it would really be impossible to conduct such operations in any way that would not entail very serious evils .

Advances through Zemindars and Mahajuns. I have, therefore , strongly urged on all officers that advances should be made by or through Zemindars and Mahajuns to the utmost possible extent, and only by Government direct in the very last resort . As I have said, I believe that , if the money is really to be repaid , the people themselves would rather get it in their own way than come to us , and so long as those who usually lend to them do not themselves run dry, it is better that it should be so. have directed that every possible pressure should be put on the zemindars to induce them to do their duty . Their estates are good security , and we may well advance to them the money they require to keep their ryots afloat , care being taken, through the large establishments we are forming, that the money is really devoted to the purpose for which it is intended .

44. I am also inclined to think that there is much in a plan which Mr. Metcalfe greatly urges , viz. , that Government should make advances to mahajuns whose capital may be unequal to all that falls on them in a year when no one repays and every one is ready to borrow, but who are trustworthy and reliable mon and are willing, on receiving Government advances on reasonable terms , to engage to carry their clients , through this bad year . If this is discreetly and well done, I think it may be of very great advantage and involve little or no loss to Government, and I have authorised Mr. Metcalfe to try it . For the ryot it is sometimes better that he should owe money to his banker than be too much in the power of his zemindar. If the zemindar does his duty nothing can be better, but it may not in all cases be desirable that a harsh landlord should have very large famine debts standing on his books when Government really gives the money.

It is when we go into the question of security, on which the Government has so much dwolt, that the real difficulty of dealing otherwise than through those whose business it is to conduct the money dealings of the country becomes apparent . There are few under- tenures in Behar ; occupancy rights are ill -defined ; the titles to trees and tanks and such like, and to rent-free lands which ryots proffer as security, are very liable to be called in question. On going into the matter narrowly I find it to be the general opinion that the real security most largely available consists chiefly of the silver ornaments , & c. , in which natives so much indulge. Would it be possible for Government to open a vast pawn- broker's shop to lend on ornaments ? I hardly think so. But if the mahajun's funds are maintained they will very readily do so . 45. The instructions which I issued at Durbhungalı were then as follows :-

Classification of villages for purpose of advances .

Every starving village or estate should be classed as one in which-

(1 ) The zemindar has the means to assist his ryots , and must by every means be induced to do so ; or

(2) In which he has not the means, but has or can be induced to develop the will to do so, and in which he is to have tuccavce advancos for the purpose , to the proper use of which our officers must see ; or 318 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8, 1874 .

(3) In which it is found absolutely impossible to work through the zomindars , and to save the people alive Government must under- take the work, trusting to recover the amount by legislation.or otherwise.

But I trust that if our officers work with the natives-as I think they may- the villages of this last class will be comparatively few.

To this should be added , with reference to what has been said above , that when a village must come under class 3. it will be better that the work should be done through a good mahajun , to whom the people of the village have always looked, than directly by Government , and that advances may be made to the mahajun for the purpose .

To arrange all that is required with zemindars and mahajuns, and finally to deal direct with the residue, which may be left directly in our hands, very great skill and knowledge of the people and their affairs will be required For this work the experienced native officers now lent us from the North-Western Provinces will be of infinite use , and I trust our officers will not be above learning from them . I have throughout had it much in viow that as soon as we can disperse to village works the masses of people collected and still collect- ing on our roads , the knowledge of the native officers , should be specially utilised for the purpose of managing advances to ryots through zemindars or otherwise .

46. As regards security for the advances, I am inclined to think, after much discussion, that in the absence of real Joint security for advances. material security a good deal may be done in the way of personal security by getting the people who know one another to stand security one for the other. Where the zemindar cannot or will not do his duty, perhaps a substantial jeyt ryot may stand security for those whom he repre- sents, or a body of good ryots may take a loan going security for one another , which would be far better than dealing with each individual . The indigenous patwarees should be used to the utmost in those transactions .

Seed-grain

47. A good deal of anxiety has lately been expressed regarding the supply ofunhusked rice for seed. I did not press thismatter prominently in the first instance, because I think historical experience shows that in no known Indian famine has seed ever run short . It is a fact shown by official records that the year after the great Bengal famine of 1769-70, the revenue rose higher than ever, showing that the fields had not been left uncultivated for want of seed. In Orissa, in the very height of the famine , the fields were fully sown. Cultivators keep their seed-grain with a tenacity which we cannot call superstitious; and for the principal rice- sowings , on account of the practice of planting out by hand from seed-beds, instead of sowing broadcast , I believe comparatively little seed is required. I am in hopes that in our worst districts it will prove that much seed has been rotained .

I do not know if the unhusked grains scattered among the Burmah and Saigon rice would gorminate when soparated, and whether the cultivators would be satisfied to uso a seed so different from their own . If they want this in the unhusked state, it willbe available . But for Government to undertake to import a supply of seed , would involve a fresh operation in addition to the great burdens which we have undertaken. I am not prepared to recommend this Of course, if seed is to be had for money, the advance of money to ryots mcludes the purchase of seed as a primary object .

48. In regard to estates managed by the Court of Wards , it was necessary to decide the question what is to be done by Arrangements on Wards' Estates . Government at its own charge , and what charged to the estates , of which the great Durbhungah estate extending over so much of the famine country, is the most conspicuous instance . In the case of a very rich and solvent estate, such as that of Durbhungah , there can be no question that the manager should do all that we can fairly urge the best zemindars to do, and I am happy to say that this has been arranged throughout the Durbhungah Raj . I think it fair, however, that when Govern- SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874 319

ment does so much elsewhere, we should not throw absolutely the whole burden on the Raj . The following are the arrangements which I made at Durbhungah regarding the Durbhungah Raj Estate:-

" The Lieutenant-Governor pressed on the manager the importance of taking early steps to give effect to the orders regarding advances to ryots . It was admitted that in villages ut present let in farm where the farms are shortly to expire , the question was involved in some difficulty, but the Raj officers were urged not to let minor difficulties stand in the way of making this species of aid really general and effective . Sanction has been given to exponding a lakh of rupees in advances , but the Lieutenant-Governor , referring to the Viceroy's reiterated desire to assist good ryots as much as possible, said that Colonel Burn was not to consider himself tied down to that sum . Caution was of course to be exercised in a reasonable way, but a cortain margin of ultimate loss must be accepted as probable, and the Raj agency was such as to make it quite feasible to institute inquiry in every village belonging to the estate . The Lieutenant-Governor did not wish advances to be made to ryots who were absolutely insolvent ; they must be treated as fit subjects for charitable relief; but it was better to err on the side of doing too much than too little.

" It was arranged that the Government circle officers should be relieved of all responsibility for making advances to ryots in Raj villages . That duty would be left entirely to the Raj officers .

"Colonel Burn and Mr. Llewhellin undertook to do their very utmost to give immediate effect to the above." The relative position of the Raj and the Government agency was also discussed and settled as follows :-

" The Raj pays for and manages all works on the property , also all advances to ryots . The Government agency will relieve the Raj officers of the cost of charitable relief as soon as the agency is in sufficient working order , the Raj officers rendering all the assistance they can . Till the Government officers can take over the charitable relief, the Raj officers will continue it .

"When the charitable relief operations are amalgamated , any Raj grain not needed for Raj works will be made over to the Government, who will supply grain for the needy from the common stock .

" The Raj officers in their degree will , as much as possible , undertake the duties of group Superintendents in villages belonging to thom , and arrange effectively for the villago headmen and putwaries to make lists of the needy and carry out the details . Where of sufficient standing, they will be active members of committees and sub- committees .

" If the manager finds that the circle officer's calls leave no time to the Raj establishment for their regular work , they can either bo seconded and taken over by Government, or some other arrangements can be made to suit the particular case . Care mustbe taken that no charitable relief now being given by the Raj is stopped until the circle officer orders it, after making other arrangements as above indicated.

" The large Raj works under the charge of the Executive Engineer willbe dealt with in the saine way as works under the Department of Public Works , where real labour is exacted and full wages paid.

" The village Raj works will be managed by the ordinary Raj establish- ment, as the minor relief works elsewhere are managed by the relief officers ." 49. In regard to all other solvent Wards' Estates , similar principles

should be followed as nearly as possible . In one Caseof insolvent Wards' Estates . district a question has been raised regarding Wards' Estates which are embarrassed and without ready money. The primâ facie view is, that the money necessary to do what is the duty of the estate should be advanced and charged as a debt against it ; but one officer has urged that , as practically we cannot do this in all other estates , we should not charge advances against Wards' Estates, but do what is necessary at Government expense, and leave the Wards ' Estates in the same position as others who fail to do their duty , subject to the question whether Government will , by legisla- tion, recoup itself for expenditure which ought proporly to have been borne by the landholders . I think that, for the present at any rate, necessary advances 820 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874 .

must be charged against the estates . The merits of the matter may be re-opened hereafter, if circumstances seem to give equitable grounds for re- opening the question .

contracts . 50. All our arrangements depend on our possessing a sufficient supply of grain to feed the people where it is necessary Transport of Government grain . to do so, and in case of what I have called a food- famine, as distinguished from a money- famine , we contemplate largely supplementing mere charitable relief by selling grain to those who have money tobuy in the places which private trade does not reach. The quantity of grain to be provided for each district has been , for the most part , settled by the Govornment of India on the reports of Sir Richard Temple's local inquiries sub- mitted by this Governmont. The supply thus provided is a very liberal one, and its transport is a great operation . The transport arrangements of the Patna Division were finally arranged by Sir Richard Temple (principally on a large contract system ) , and those made by the local officers under the instructions of this Government in the Bhagulpore and Rajshalıye Divisions have since been seen and approved by him . The Patna carriage contracts having been so completely arranged, I have wished to interfere with them as little as possible, and have avoided all disturbance of existing arrangements . The only Orders given as to Eastern Tirhoot pressing difficulty was the failure of the contract for the supply of Eastern Tirhoot from Barh and Chumpta Ghat , where I found that the southern contractors had not carried half what they engaged to carry , while the northert contractors , who were to receive it and carry it on, had carts standing unsupplied . The consequence of this state of things was that almost everything that arrived was sent on to the Madhoobunnee sub division, and hardly any addition was made to the small supply stored in the very populous and necessitous sub-division ofDurbhunga. There is also this difficulty about the contract arrangements , that the carters are not wholly under the contra of the contractors ; they go verywillingly to places where forage abounds, sut very unwillingly to places where it is scarce ; and while the despatches fror the western side of Tirhoot were very large (even more, I believe, than was contracted for) there was a tendency to send too much to Seetamurhee, where it was least wanted, and none to Durbhunga, where it was much wantd . It has been arranged that for the Eastern Tirhoot contracts , two new mes of transport are opened out , where a fresh supply of carts will be available by Mokameh and by Monghyr, while the changing stations have been shied so as to give the southern carts a shorter lead and the northern carts longer lead than before. Major deKantzow has arranged that the promised espatches to Durbhunga from the western ghat are really carried out. I uve directed that grain in excess of the proportional requirements of the stern portion of the district (accord- ing to contract) shall notnot be desphed ; the contractors must be restricted to the fair weekly allotment for at line, and the rest must be sont the other way in the proportion in whiche contracts stipulated.

The Durbhunga Railway .

accross the fields as a 51. The most important suppm ont to our carrying powers is the railway em Chumpta to Durbhunga, which is fortunatel just in the transport line where the failure occurs , and where it is mo wanted . It is progressing admirably without interfering in any way with other traffic. It is carried at present and there seems to be no doubt the it willbe ready to carry much grain before but in this way it gets on very rapidly, temporary li. the rainy season , after which it wibe lifted and put on a more permanent line . But this latter, I fear, will hardly maintained in working order through the rains. Under the circaeiances ,ten, it is clear that all our efforts must be possible before the rains disturb it . All directed to use the rail as muching stock . I have represented this strongly depends on a sufficient supply of rong to the Government of India, who ha at once taken means to supply stock to the very utmost . It is expected thatome 200 tons of grain may be carried daily half way to Durbhunga in All , and that from the middle or latter part of April, 800 tons a day will be cried into Durbhunga. Instructions have been issued to make the necessary rangements for the receipt and despatch of this grain.

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874. 321

I believe that this line of railway from opposite Barı to Durbhunga is an admirable one, eminently suited for a permanent line,-that it will not be expensive, and that it should pay well . 52. It seemed to me that it was not sufficiently understood who was to

direct all the various despatches and deliveries Definition of Col. Macgregor's fune- tions of grain, to arrange with the various contractors the questions in which one depends on the other , and so on . I therefore arranged clearly what I understood to be intended from the first, that Colonel Macgregor and his staff should undertako all these func- tions. Mr. Metcalfe should ( subject to the Commissioner's general direction) keep Colonel Macgregor informed in what parts of the stricken sub-divisions grain is most wanted, and should be in constant communication and under- standing with Colonel Macgregor. Colonel Macgregor , understanding what is wanted, will arrange with the contractors and others accordingly ; that will be in his hands, and there will not be risk of contradictory orders by various local officers , each acting for himself. Mr. Metcalfe should see that this is thoroughly understood . He should come to a clear understanding with his sub -divisional officers as to the relative urgency of their requirements . Seeing that the Durbhunga Sub -division is nearer to the base, and that it will be supplied by the railway and by North -West Provinces reserved carriage, it is settled that for the present, only enough to secure us against a sudden surprise is to be kept in Durbhunga, all the rest will be allowed to go into the Madhubani sub-division till that is quite secured . Colonel Macgregor is to arrange a good system , by which full information of the despatches from one end of a line is punctually and promptly conveyed to those who are to take up or receive the grain at the other end. The reserve carriage as it arrives , will also be put under Colonel Macgre- gor's directions .

53. It is proposed to prepare a note showing the whole of our transport arrangements as now matured , and I do not here touch on more than those partial re-arrangements made during my visit to Tirhoot.

Sale of Government grain . 54. I have remarked that , up to the time of my visit, the bazars seemed to be generally well supplied with grain, princi- pally pulses , &c. , rice being comparatively scarce and dear . The time for general sales to the public had evidently not come , though I was satisfied that it would be a great convenience and aid to our labourers to sell rice on the works to those who wanted rice . I directed that this should be generally done ; these instructions shouldbe carefully carried out. With respect to price, it had been proposed to sell at 12 seers per rupee , but I found that while the price of rice is not cheaper than 12 seers in the great marts on the line of rail, and in the Tirhoot bazars is from 9 to 10 seers or less , to sell at 12 would have an embarrassing effect . The instructions which I issued on this subject for North Tirhoot were , then, as follows :-

" I am satisfied that good rice cannot at present be sold at 12 seers, as was at one time proposed, without greatly deranging a still active private trade. We must, in the present circumstances , continue to encourage that trade to the utmost , and I trust I shall not hear again of the seizure by the police of the bullocks engaged in it, as I have to -day found to have been done . It is remarkable that, while other grains are still very plentiful in the bazar, solling at 11 to 13 seers of 88 tolalhs , say, 12 to 14 Government seers , rice is extremely scarce and very little to be seen. In ordinary times , rice is the main food of the people in this part of the country, and the coolies now much run upon our rice stocks . 1 therefore think that rice should be offered for sale on all our works at 10 Government seers per rupee for ordinary cleaned rice , other rice being sold cheaper in proportion. If at any time , in any of the bazars, rice is selling cheaper than the above , the Government rice may also be sold on the works as cheap as private rice in the bazars .

"As regards the price of inferior or uncleaned rice , the qualities vary so much , that it is impossible to lay down a rule , I must leave this to the dis- cretion of the local officers . They are to sell all kinds of rice at the rate which they find in practice makes each kind as popular with the people as cleaned SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874 .

322

country rice at 10 seers . I believe there is no objection on the part of the people to clean Burmah rice ; if so, it should be sold at the same rate as country rice. If it is found that the people avoid it by comparison, it may be made a little cheaper. I have found here that the people crowded very much to get uncleaned Burmah or Saigon rice ( good of its kind ) at 13 seers .

"As rice is sold retail by pice per seer , and not by seers per rupee , I authorise officers to adopt for sale on the works , the nearest rate in pice to the seer rates above ordered, although thero may be some fractional differences .

"When our rico is stored in large quantities , I shall be glad to sell it on our works at a somewhat cheaper rate, say 12 seers for ordinary rice if this can be done without inconvenienco and disturbance .

" To the general public, rice must only be sold at present where there is really an absence of the article in the bazars . The sales to the people will much depond on the quantity of rice we have in store . While we have little and private trade is active , we must not interfere ; when we have abundance, and private trade ceases to operate, wo may sell freely, using the bunneahs , and village traders , and giving them a small margin of profit.

"Seeing the abundance of other grains in the bazars and scarcity of rice, I think it better that all the mixed grains , wheat, & c . , should be kept till later, so long as they aro sound and good to keep . Even Indian-corn , properly kept , shows no tendency to spoil so far . But whenever weevils appear, or other injury is commencing, the grain should be used.

"Much of the grain has come up unclassed , and spare labour might be used at the granaries to sift it , mark it , and place it where it can be most conveniently got out as it is wanted. This should certainly be done as far as possible. Sufficient doors and other arrangements should be provided in the golalis: great care must be taken to provide against fire ; and people who have reasonable objection to hard road-work may be employed to guard and look after the granaries ."

When the time comes for selling rice to the public , the price will, as directed in Government orders , be regulated by the price in the nearest large marts where food is abundant ; but I hope that we shall be able to sell at not less than 10 seers per rupee. Eventually, if it proves that we have larger stocks than we requiro for relief purposes and for necessary salos , at a season when private trade is almost stopped, it may be both a great relief to the people and a legiti- mate mode of disposing of our stocks to sell at a cheaper rate ; but this must depend on subsequent orders .

In any case, when we come to sell to the public , I am sure that we shall do so most conveniently and effect the minor distribution throughout the country far better than we could do it ourselves by selling in a small wholesale way , at a somewhat profitable rate, to the petty traders who abound and carry grain about the country in bullock- loads in every direction. Even in the rains, 1I hope that a good deal may be done by these petty traders in this way, whether they uso pack - bullocks, small boats , or head- loads .

Distribution of food in the raina attention. I had already attended to the matter in 55. This question of distribution in the rains is one to which the Govern- ment of India have recently drawn our special Tirhoot , and issued instructions to the Commissioner to do all that is possible towardsrds clearing and opening out the internal water channels and securing both regular boats for the rivers and canoes for the watery tracts where land carriage becomes almost impossible during the rains . I trust that full uttention will be paid to these points

Arrangements have also been made for a comprehensive inquiry into the wholo subject of the means of communication during the rains to be made beforehand, so as to secure us against doubt and difficulty when the time comes . Ihad previously for other purposes obtained full reports of the water com- munications of the two parts of the country most affected , North Bengal and Tirhoot ; these will be collated by a selected officer who has special knowledge of the subject, and any additional information necessary will be locally obtained. Major Trevor may well give attention to this among other subjects .

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8, 1874. 323

56. The following orders on matters of secondary importanco were issued during my visit to Tirhoot , and are generally applicable to distressed districts- "All circle officers should havo magisterial powers if they are fit for it . It will be desirable that all fit for sunimary powers Miscellaneous subsidiary orders . should have such . It will be understood that relief officers need not devote themselves to investigating difficult cases, but it will bo convenient that petty and clear cases , or cases connected with their work , work , should be disposed of promptly on the spot . A large supply of the forms used for record of summary trial should be sent up at once to all the districts .

"While bungalows have been built for European officers , nothing has been done for native officers ; arrangements should be made to protect them as well as possible . The Lieutenant-Governor has promised Sir W. Muir to take care of those sent down from the North - Western Provinces , and wishes to have this done. If good native buildings can be had on hire or made, they may be hired or put up. If not , proper allowances must be given to enable these officers to house themselves with the least possible dolay. "

And the following , which , though specially issued for one line only, is in principle applicable to all cases in which land is taken up for roads or other purposes, as is so often the case in connection with our relief works :-

" The Lieutenant-Governor has observed with regret that where the Dur- bhunga State Railway runs through standing crops , compensation has not yet been given to the ryots . This mustbe done at once . The Commissioners of Patna and Bhagulpore are desired to issue immediate orders that the sub- divisional officers, through whose jurisdiction the line passes , shall at once, with- out any very formal proceedings , assess on the spot the value of crops destroyed, giving the cultivators the benefit of any doubt . As the lands are at present only temporarily occupied , no question of compensation for the land need be takenup . Only payment for crops to the ryots concerned must be settled, and paid forthwith by a summary and rule-of- thumb enquiry."

57. Whether the land is occupied permanently or temporarily , compensa- tion for loss of crop should be given summarily and liberally on the spot without any delay, leaving the value of the land permanently taken to be settled separately . But this also should be done as soon as possible , unless , as has happoned in many cases, the zemindars give the land for relief purposes free of cost, an example which it is hoped many others will follow.

58. While things are in so critical a position it seems most necessary that Government should have more speedy information than that which it obtains by the roundabout official channels. Orders have been issued for a brief weekly return to Government direct from every distressed sub-division , showing numbers of persons on works and otherwise receiving relief, and grain stored, with an explanation of any remarkable changes . And such information is to be telegraphed from the most important sub-divisions both weekly and whenever there is anything specially remarkable to report .

Calcutta, the 7th April 1874 .

READ-

Circular No. 37 , dated 6th December 1872 , concerning the preparation of returns on the food-grains of Bengal .

Memorandum [No. 42, dated 31st January 1873 , ] on the products of Furreedpore by Dr. B. N. Bове .

Suggestions by Mr. Justice Phear on the formation of an Economic Museum , Calcutta, 1873.

Suggestions by Mr. Heoley, Inspector - General of Hospitals, on the same subject , dated 27th February 1873 .

Suggestions by Colonel Hyde , Mint-Master, Calcutta, on the same subject, dated 26th Sugg July 1873.

THE Lieutenant-Governor has long felt the want of a practical collection of the products of Bengal , an Economic Museum in fact , in which all the natural and industrial products of the province might be brought together , identified, and compared , for the purposo of ascertaining all that is really known concerning them, and then circulating this information in the most practical and useful shape that can be devised. Local officers must be able to recognise with precision the various grains and other products of their districts , to enable them to deal with agricultural statistics in an intelligent manner. At present it is almost ludicrous to observe, in moving from district to district, how often the same things are called by different names, and different things by the same names ; and how extremely difficult it is to recognise the identity even of the commonest products . The Lieutenant-Governor is convinced that the very first step towards the attainment of exact and comprehensivo know- ledge of the agriculture and other industries of the province is to bring together and classify our raw products, and, impressed with this conviction, he has for some time past conteinplated the establishment of something in the nature of an economic museum .

To be of practical use, however, the museum must be not merely a collection of the raw and manufactured products, & c . , ofBengal , but must also afford all requisite descriptive information with regard to each article . When the museum is complete, an inquirer ought to be able not only to find in its cases a specimen of the particular product , or article which he desires to inspect , but to obtain- if we suppose the object of his visit to be a particular grain-an account of the places in which it grows , and the names by which it goes ; if coal, he would find the principal coals produced in these Provinces represented , their several qualities and characteristics, the accessibility of the mines , the means of transport, &c . And similarly with regard to other food -products , seeds, fibres , minerals , and manufactures .

Acareful and well classified selection, thereforo , of specimens of all the products of the country , with printed papers telling all that is as yet known concerning every article of importance, will be the primary object of the museum, a work which , His Honor believes , will bear fruit out of all proportion to the labour of its preparation . There is a tendency in all such institutions to degenerate into a curiosity shop . His Honor has no fear that a committee judiciously selected would pormit anything of the kind ; they would keep steadily in view the purpose of the institution which is to traco every commodity in its successive stages of production and manufacture, taking stock of the actual resources of the province , and of its industrial developments .

One of the great wants of trade generally in India is the means of utilising the valuable information that has been collected regarding the productions of the country, and that lies buried in the records of the Government, or , almost equally inaccessible, in the scientific libraries and museums at the Presidency SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874. 325

towns . The results of the past labours and researches of the eminent men who have been the ornaments of the Indian services, and other remarkable men , should, the Lieutenant-Governor feels, if possible, be edited in a popular form .

He would like to see the results of these valuable labours gathered by ourselves , adding thereto our own systematic collection of information, and putting the whole in an accessible form in the hands of the public . The Lieutenant-Governor believes that an Economic Museum well- administered would, within a comparatively short period , provide the public with the means of ascertaining, by a simple reference thereto , all that is known or is recorded in the several departments of the Government concerning the products and industries of the country.

Dr. Forbes Watson's plan for an Industrial Survey of India , sent out by the Secretary of State, is the development of a plan which the Lieutenant- Governor is inclined to adopt, and which he has been anxious to begin . He found, however , that while we might rapidly get together from our various provincos many specimens , the first necessity was to prepare a building for them; and after much search he was fortunate enough to find a public building in Dalhousie Square, which , by adaptation, has been made admirably to suit the purpose.

He had hoped that by this time the Museum would have been well started , but the famine has interfered, and prevented our doing anything which would involve large calls on the district officers . The building being however ready, a few materials available , and many of our districts being now freed from immediate fear of famine , the Lieutenant- Governor is unwilling to leave the country without making a small commencement of the undertaking .

Mr. Justice Phear has kindly assisted the Lieutenant-Governor with some excellent suggestions , also Colonel IIyde, the Mint Master ; and Mr. Heeley , c.s. , was good enough some time since to undertake a collection and classification of the food -grains of Bengal . The three gentlemen thus named consented , at the Lieutenant-Governor's request, to form themselves into an informal committee . in order to formulate the plans necessary to make a small commencement of the undertaking; and they have made some suggestions which the Lieutenant- Governor most readily adopts .

In accordance with these suggestions the Lieutenant Governor is pleased to appoint the following gentlemen to form a Central Committee to manage the Museum , with powers to appoint an Honorary Secretary and an establish- ment at a cost not exceeding Rs . 60 per mensem , with Rs . 20 per mensem for contingencies .

1. Hon'ble Mr. Justice Phear .

2. Colonel H. Hyde, R.E.

3. W. L. Heeley, Esq . , Inspector-General of Jails .

4. Mr. J. R. Bullen Smith .

5. H. B. Medlicott, Esq ., Geological Survey.

6. Dr. G. King, Royal Botanical Garden. 7. Dr. W. Schlich , Conservator of Forests.

8. J. Geoghegan, Esq. , Board of Revenue.

9. Robert Knight, Esq. , Bengal Socrotariat .

10. Dr. C. B. Clarke , Education Department.

11 Dr. Kanye Lull Dé.

The work of the Central Committeo appointed by this Resolution will be the nominating, advising and directing of local committees ; the selecting and arranging arranging of the samples and models received; and the composing of the descrip- tive catalogue from the materials sent in by the local committees and fro information obtained by the members of the Central Committee itself or found already existing in a written form . This work will probably have to be done by allotment among sub-committees and individual members . It is necessary , therefore, that the committee should comprehend as many gentlemen as possible possessed of the requisito scientific attainments , who would take interest in the objects of the muscuin , and would consent to serve upon the committee . The Secretary would require to be paid, and it is proposed to make a small com- mencement with a salary of Rs . 150 per mensem , which sum is accordingly sanctioned .

826 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 8 , 1874 .

The appointment of local committees in the districts will be made by the Central Committee in communication with the Government and the Commis- sioners of Divisions , and that Committee will be good enough to advise the Government as to the constitution they propose to give these bodies ; but the Lieutenant-Governor feels keenly that, lot their constitution be what it may, their efficiency will depend upon the interest which the district officers of the Government take in the work. He would remind these gentlemen that we must have their active sympathy in this effort to stimulate the industry and promote the well- being of the people committed to their care. The Lieutenant- Governor knows how real that sympathy happily is , in the great majority of our officers , and he feels sure that he may count upon it in the present case . What we want from the districts are not things ornamental or curious , still less specimens of fine art, but specimens of the ordinary products of its agri- culture, its minerals, its manufactures , and its forests and wastes . Bengal teens with undeveloped wealth , and we must have an effective inventory of our natural advantages and possessions .

RELIEF OPERATIONS CONDUCTED BY HIS HIGHNESS THE MOHARAJAH OF BURDWAN.

No. 360T , dated Burdwan, the 28th March 1874. From- C . T. BUCKLAND , ESQ. , Commissioner of the Burdwan Division , To The Offg . Secretary to the Government of Bengal, Statistical Department . In continuation of my previous report , I have the honor to submit for the information ofGovernment copy of the statement dated 26th instant, which His Highness the Moharajah has sent to me, shewing the particulars of the relief operations conducted under His Highness' management, and at His Highness' expense.

Burdwan Moharajah's Relief Operations Statement .

BURDWAN .

SINCE the last statement was made there has been very little alteration in the state of affairs . One of the relief works has been finished, but there is plenty of occupation on the other two for all who apply for employment . Of those who might legitimately be called distressed, there are still few among the applicants , although the number of people employed is gradually increasing.

Relief works .

Thenumber employed on the 13th March was 387 , and on the 19th March 506 , including men, women, and children . Among these are a few up - country people. A system of issuing tickets for admission to employment has been instituted, but daily payments have been discontinued, as the people preferred receiving their pay weekly . The rate of pay still continues to be for men 10 pice, and women and children 6 pice each .

The food distribution - house at Burdwan has been placed under the personal supervision of Mr. Rossi , who has made a great improvement in the system Food distribution. pursued . The number continues about the same, and no per- manent increase is pero ptible . On the 18th of March the number of recipients was 1,012 , and on the 19th March 1,065 , but this increase in number is no sign of increase of distress , as the number fluctuates , thus , on the 16th March the number was 1,151 , on the 19th only 1,065 .

Culna relief works, There has been a marked diminution in the number of applicants for labor on the Somajbarri Dighee at Culna . On the 15th March the number employed was 400 , and on the 21st only 273. The work is capable of employing 600 hands , and unless that number be obtained the work will not be finished by the beginning of the rains . It has , however, been determined not to force the work, but to keep it as a means of relief for a greater number , should distress hereafter show itself in Culna, which has not yet been the case . The rate of wages is the same as at Burdwan. It maybe stated that there are a few agriculturists among the laborers employed on the work at Culna. The number of women employed on other works , where light labor is required , is the same as reported in the last statement, namely,between 50 and 70 .

The number of recipients hardly varies at all from the six preceding weeks . On the 15th March 1,040 men , women , and children were fed , and on the 21st March 972. The number never falls below 950 ; 1,023 has Culna food distribution -house. been the average during the last six weeks .

BOOD -BOOD.

Upon the representation of the Collector of Burdwan, it has been decided to open a relief- house immediatelyat Bood- bood , near the thana . Sheds are to be erected, for which pauper labor is to be employed . The Deputy Magistrate anticipates about 400 people daily will require to be fed. This gentleman also proposes that raw rice should be distributed to the better class of agriculturists , who will not eat the cooked food , but this suggestion is under consideration , and has not yet been adopted . The relief- house at Bood bood will be placed under a darogah, but will be supervised by the district relief committee, the members of which have kindly volunteered their services ,

HOOGHLY .

The Collector of looghly has suggested the opening of three relief- houses near that town , where cooked food should be distributed , viz . , one at Dhurumpore, one at Kodalia, and one at Bally . The Collector writes that he has suggested three relief- houses instead of one in order to prevent the assemblage at any one place of large crowds . No action has yet been taken upon the suggestion, but an objection has been raised to the proposal , that three houses within a limited distance of each other may give rise to fraud, people going from one house to another, and receiving food at all, unless costly prohibitive measuresbe taken; and also that people, SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 8 , 1874. 329

finding three relief- houses opened at once, while the distress is still at a minimum , will imagine that they have only to sit still and be fed, and not exert themselves in any way, and that in this manner pauperism maybe forced . It is proposed to open at present one central relief- house, and , as the occasion arises , to open branches , but Mr. Pellew has been written to upon the subject, and action will be taken on the receipt of his reply.

RAIPORE , KUTOHRT, &c . ,

Raipore , Kuchet , and the piece of country between Burdwan and Culna were visited during the past week by the Moharajah , and inquiries as to the state of the people instituted . There were, however, no complaints of actual distress , though the people seemed to have consi- derable apprehension as to the future .

Rice from Orissa .

A large quantity of rice has been purchased in Orissa , the first two or three thousand maunds of which are expected within the next three weeks .

COOCHBEHARDIVN.

Nil Mornings and evenings cool . Westerly wind and last few days cloudy . Tobacco is being cut in parts and finished cutting in others ; the crop is a very good one . Barley and wbeat have been reaped and aro good crops . Potatoes dug up- a good crop. Sowing of kowni ( millet) and moong ( pulse) finished . Sowing of jute com- mencod. Reports of the state of the people all over the district cheering . There has been a general and considerable fall in the price of rice in the district ; coarse rice, which was lately selling in the Julpigoree bazar at 11 scers per rupee, is now 17 and 18 seers , and in the Dooars 18 and 19 seers per rupce . In parts of Boda where, the district officers havebeen most anxious , the poorer classes would suffer from distress , are still pinched from want of full quantity of food. Coarse rice , a seer or two cheaper. The fall in prices in those parts, where the crops have been worst, i, e. , parts of Boda, is owing to the cold weather crops being in these parts very good and now having come to markets , and partly to the fact of rice being stored on the part of the Cooch Behar State . Generally all over the district the fall is due to export having stopped, and this is said tobe consequent on the sule ofGovernment rice in neighbouring districts. No distress at present.

Nil Cloudless sky and hot wost wind. The continued fine weather has greatly improved the molhwa crop. It is now generally considered a twelve - anna crop , if not more.

CVI , His Excellency the Viceroy and Governor - General of India is pleased to appoint, subject to the approbation of Her Majesty, the Hon'ble Sir Richard Temple, K.C.S.I. , of the Bengal Civil Service , to be Lieutenant- Governor of the Bengal Division of the Presidency of Fort William.

No. 141. The 9th April 1874. The Hon'ble Sir Richard Temple , к.C.S.I. , having been appointed by His Excellency the Viceroy and Governor-General of India, subject to the approbation of Her Majesty, to be Lieutenant-Governor of the Bengal Division of the Presidency of Fort William, has this day assumed charge of the office under the usual salute .

The following Resolution , No. 1200A, dated the 8th April 1874 , of the Government of India, in the Department of Revenue, Agriculture , and Commerce , is republished for gencral information : -

The Governor-General in Council has considered the 14th Special Nar- rative, submitted on the 2nd instant , of the drought in Behar and parts of Bengal, and the letter from the Government of Bengal , No. 2088- S.R . of the 6th instant, forwarding a Note reviewing the allotment of grain to each district and the arrangements for its transport, together with Minutes by Sir Richard Temple, summarising the present relief arrangements in the distressed divisions of Behar and Rajshahye .

The Narrative, with the Licutenant -Governor's observations and instruc- tions, has been published in the Gazette of India. The same publicity will now be given to these subsequent communications .

Sir George Campbell has been obliged, on account of the state of his health , to resign the office of Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal, and it is the gratifying duty of the Government of India to acknowledge the zeal and ability with which His Honor has from the first devoted himself to the arduous task of conducting the operations for the relief of distress . The Governor- General in Council desires particularly to record his high appreciation of the manner in which Sir George Campbell personally directed and supervised the relief organization on the occasion of his recent visit to North Behar .

The Governor -General in Council further desires to take this opportunity of expressing his entire concurrence in Sir George Campbell's acknowledg- ment of the obligation of the Government to Sir Richard Temple for the great energy and administrative power which he has shewn in co - operating with the Lieutenant - Governor for the purpose of completing the arrangements to meet the famine .

The Government of India have also to record their cordial recognition of the zealous and efficient services of the Commissioners of the Patna, Bha- gulpore , and Rajshahye Divisions , and of the other officers mentioned by the Lieutenant-Governor and Sir Richard Temple .

It is not impossible that contingencies may arise which will place still greater strain upon the resources of the State , and call for additional exertions on the part of the officers of Government. But His Excellency confidently relies upon every officor doing his duty under a strong sense of the respon. sibility devolving upon him during the period of increasing distress which , it is to be feared, must be anticipated .

Financial Resolution , dated Fort William , the 10th December 1861 .

"From correspondence that has lately passed between the Foreign Department and the Agent, Governor-General , for the States of Rajpootana, it appears that for upwards of a quarter of a century a fund called the " Batta Fund " has been in existence in the Mhair- wara District, the money belonging to which remained in the hands of the Treasurer of the Deputy Commissioner of that district , without being exhibited in any shape whatever in the public accounts . To prevent such irregular proceedings , His Excellency the Governor- General of India in Council directs all officers of Government to bear in mind that all transactions to which they in their official character are parties , must, in future , without any reservation, be brought to account, and all moneys be deposited in the Government treasuries ."

RESOLUTION .

IN MAY 1869 the Government of India in the Foreign Department sanctioned certain rules for regulating the importation of fire - arms and ammunition into the Lower Provinces of Bengal, and their transport from place to place within the limits of those provinces , under the provisions of Sections 17 to 22 of Act XXXI of 1860 , and at the same time issued a Circular to the other Local Governments and Administrations inquiring how far such rules would meet their respective requirements .

2. From the replics received it appears necessary to frame uniform regulations for placing the importation and inland transport of cannon and arms and ammunition under systematic control throughout British India.

3. And from other portions of the correspondence read , it appears desirable to prohibit the transhipment of cannon and arms and ammunition at certain British Indian ports, and to restrict the granting of passes for the exportation of cannon and arms and ammunition from British India .

4. The Governor-General in Council is therefore pleased to declare as follows :- Firstly, as regards the importation of cannon and arms and ammunition , that licenses for import under Section 17 , Act XXXI of 1860, will henceforward be granted only at places andplaces and by the officials named in the list appended to this Resolu- tion. These orders will supersede the Notifications issued from the Home Department in October 1860 and July 1866, which authorized the chief police officer in every town and frontier district to grant licenses , and so much of the Foreign Office Notification of 1869 as relates to the importa- tion of arms , &c . , by sea or by land into India ; also so much of the Notifica- tion (dated 22nd July 1873) which appeared in the Calcutta Gazette of 23rd July 1873 , as relates to the importation of fire- arıns and ammunition into the territories under the Government of Bengal .

Secondly, as regards the transhipment of arms , & c . , that a Notification has issued under Section 6 of Act VI of 1878 , prohibiting such transhipment at the ports to which that Act extends .

Thirdly , as regards the inland transport of arms , &c . , from one part of India to another , that the rules , of which a copy is appended to this Resolution, are approved , and that they be published under Section 22 of Act XXXI of 1860; further that, in order to enable the Local Administrations under the Govern- ment of India to make similar rules for interior transport within their respec- tive territories , a Notification has issued delegating to the Chief Commissionera PART 1.]

6. The Chairman is in communication with Government on the subject of the reports of the operations of district committees to be submitted to the Committee. Meantime the Committee has regularly received copies of the fortnightly narrative of relief measures prepared under the orders of Government . The measures of gratuitous relief, and relief in the other forms embraced by the Committee's notification of the 4th March are there noticed.

7. The Committee has had under consideration the question of provision for orphans referred to it by the Government of Bengal . It was resolved to adopt the principles laid down by the Committee of 1867 , extracted below, and to ask Government to furnish, from time to time , such information as would enable the Committee to make some calculation of the charge likely to be thrown on the fund on this account .

"I.- The ages , names , personal description, place of birth or residence, custody and percentage of the children, to be ascertained and given as accurately as possible; and proclamations to be made at the localities indicated, and at all thanas , calling upon any parents, relatives, or friends, to come forward and claim the children.

" II .- If parents or other fit guardians of the children's creed come forward and claim the children, they are to be given up to them, and some donation is to be made in support of them.

" III. If no such person come forward, the children are to be either left in the guardianship in which the Committee find them , or are, from time to time as they come in, to be made over to such guardianship as, bearing in mind the 2nd principle laid down, the local Committees may select.

" IV. Calculation is to be made in the case of each child as to the time that such child is likely to be a burden to its guardian, and as to the cost of such guardianship, and provision is to be made to meet such cost to such extent as the fund at the Committee's disposal may admit of, and to as much as possible the contentment of the guardian. "

8. Finally, the Committee has been in communication with the Lord Mayor of London, the Mayor of Manchester, and the Chairman of the Madras Relief Committee on the subject of the mode of distribution of funds , and every endeavour has been made to satisfy the reasonable enquiries of subscribers .

2. The Bill as in- troduced not only dealt with the Criminal Pro- cedure of the fourHigh Courts and the Chief Court of the Panjab , but also extended cer- tain parts of the Cri- minal Procedure Code to the Courts of the Police Magistrates and to the Police of the Presidency towns . The course of discussion on the two parts of the Bill has led us to think into two, one dealing of the Police Magis- this combination undesirable, and we have accordingly divided the Bill with the procedure of the High Courts , the other with that of the Courts trates . The Presidency Police should, we think , be untouched .

The present report relates only to the criminal procedure of the High Courts .

[PART VI.

THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 15 , 1874.

3. We have altered the definition of Clerk of the Crown' ( who must always be an officer of the Court ) so as to preserve to each Chief Justice the power of appointing such officers which is conferred on him by the Letters Patent of the several High Courts .

4. We have omitted, as useless , in clause 4, the words ' four times at the least in every year.'

5. We have provided (clause 7) that the person charged shall be entitled to a copy of his own examination before the committing Magistrate .

6. With reference to section 24 of the Letters Patent, we have made clause 8 (as to the effect of the charge) apply also to charges preferred by the Advocate General , or by any Magis- trate or other offlcer specially empowered by Government.

7. We have altered clause 9 so as to make it expressly include the case where a portion only of a charge appears unsustainable, and we have extended the clause to cases in which , looking at the whole case, the Judge considers it highly improbable that a conviction will be obtained, or that it is for any other reason inexpedient to press the case.

8. We have omitted the provision that the entry mentioned in this clause shall operate as an acquittal on the expiration of three years from the time of making it. The case will be on the same footing as a case in which a Bill was ignored by the grand jury .

9. We have provided that in criminal cases transferred to a High Court under section 64 of the Code of Criminal Procedure or under the Letters Patent, the trial may, if the Court so direct, be by jury .

10. Strong representations have been made to the Committee and to the Executive as to the serious inconvenience resulting from the frequency with which officials and others are taken from their business to serve on juries . This would of course be sensibly lessened by diminishing the number of the jury . We propose to reduce it to nine and thus to render the law in this respect identical in the Presidency towns and in the Mofussil when the maximum number is fixed under section 236 of the Criminal Procedure Code .

11. In accordance with many opinions expressed in the papers referred to , we think it inexpedient to continue the old practice of requiring unanimity for a verdict , and, in lieu thereof, we have made the following provisions :-

" 14. A verdict of guilty or not guilty , as the case may be, shall be delivered either when the jury are unanimous in their opinion, or when as many as six are of one opinion and the Judge agrees with them .

" 15. When the jury are satisfied that they will not be unanimous, but six of them are of one opinion, the foreman shall so inform the Judge .

" If the Judge disagrees with the majority, he shall then discharge the jury .

" If there are not so many as six who agree in opinion, the Judge shall , after the lapse of such time as he thinks reasonable, discharge the jury."

12. We have also provided in accordance (it is believed) with the presentsent practice, for the discharge of the jury whenever by reason of illness a juryman becomes incapable of attending through the trial, or the prisoner becomes incapable of remaining at the bar.

13. We have provided (clause 17) that, whenever the jury is discharged, the prisoner shall be detained and tried by another jury, unless the Judge considers that he should not be retried, in which case the Judge will make an entry to that effect on the charge , and the prisoner will be set at liberty.

14. We have also provided for successive trials by the same jury .

15. We have made the clauses (20 , 21 ) as to the trials of European British subjects solely or when charged jointly with Natives apply to trials in the Presidency towns as well as to trials in the Mofussil .

16. We have empowered the Governor General in Council to exempt any salaried officer of Government from serving on juries .

17. A Judge of the High Court of Madras has advised that there should be express power given to the High Court to levy fines on persons summoned as jurors and failing to attend . He says that doubts are entertained whether such power exists . Although we do not share these doubts , we have thought it desirable to provide (clause 30) expressly for the matter . TheCode of Criminal Procedure , section 414, has a somewhat similar provision.

18. We have reduced the number of peremptory challenges from twenty in commen juries and tenin special juries to eight, in all cases , onbehalf of the Crown , and the same number onbehalf of the prisoner.

19. Challenges on account of previous convictions should , we think, be confined to cases when the juror has been guilty of a non -bailable offence or a felony . We have altered the Bill accordingly.

final. 20. We have declared (clause 32) that the Judge's decision as to any challenge shall be 85 PART VI .]

THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 15 , 1874 .

21. We have exempted (clause 38) the High Courts from the operation of the following parts of the Code :-

SECTIONS.

235 ( Conduct of trial ) ;

255, the last paragraph ( Judge's charge) ;

263 , the three last paragraphs (Procedure where the Court concurs and where it disagrees with the verdict) ;

287 ( Sentence of death ) ;

307, the last paragraph ( Who may issue warrant for levy of fine) ;

332 (Manner of recording evidence) ;

341 (Remarks respecting demeanour of witness) ;

346 (Recording examination of accused) ;

363 (Right of accused as to examining and summoning witnesses) ;

405 and 406 (Disqualifications and exemptions of jurors ) ;

435 to 438, both inclusive ( Contempts of Court) ;

461 to 464 , both inclusive (Of the judgment, order and sentence).

473 ( Offences in contempt of Court) .

22. As to the power to reserve a question of law, we have struck out the words requiring that the Judge reserving it shall be a member of the Court deciding the question. We have authorized the Judge to admit the convicted person to bail pending the decision . And we have omitted, as unnecessary, the paragraphs providing for the cases where the Judge reserves no such question and prescribing a procedure where the decision is adverse.

23. We have expressly declared (clause 42) that the provisions as to lunatics contained in chapter thirty- one of the said Code, and the following sections of the said Code (namely)- 308 (payment of fine in compensation) ;

418 ( as to the disposal of property regarding which an offence has been committed ) ;

446 (how Court may deal with charge) ;

489 (as to requiring , in case of conviction, a personal recognizance for keeping the peace) ; and

531 ( as to restoring possession of immoveable property) ,

shall apply to the High Court , as if the words " High Court " were substituted for " Court of Session," wherever those words occur in the same chapter and sections . And we have saved the provisions of the Prisoners' Act, 1871 , sections seven and eight .

21. We have struck out chapter six (as to offences by European British subjects) , partly because we believe its provisions to be obsolete, and partly because they do not, strictly speaking, relate to procedure .

25. We have extended to the Government Advocate , North- Western Provinces , the clause (now numbered 43) empowering the Advocates General , with the sanction of Government, to exhibit informations ; and we have enabled those officers, either with the previous sanction of the Government of India or with that of the Local Government ,to take action for all purposes for which the Attorney General may exhibit informations on behalf of the Crown in the Courts of Queen's Bench and Exchequer .

26. We have added a clause (numbered 44) empowering the Presidency High Courts to transfer to itself cases from the Police Magistrates.. This we intend as a substitute for the power to issue a writ of certiorari conferred by 33 Geo . III , c. 52 , ss. 53, 54.

27. We have declared (clause 45) in accordance with 13 Geo . III , c. 63, sec . 38, that the Judges of the High Courts shall virtute officii be Justices of the Peace for the whole of British India, and we have added to the schedule of repcals so much of that section as provides that the Judges of the Supreme Court shall be Justices of the Peace .

28. We have also added to the same schedule Act IV of 1849 (as to criminal lunatics) : we have omitted therefrom Act XVIII of 1859 (as to offences punishable on conviction before a Magistrate) , and we have saved the first twenty- two words of Act IV of 1866 , section 20 .

29. We recommend that the Bill as amended should be published with this Report in the Gazette of India and sent for consideration to the Local Governments and High Courts concerned , and that, in the meanwhile, its further consideration be stayed .

[PART VI .

STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS .

The Select Committee to which the Bill to regulate the Procedure of the High Courts in the exercise of their Original Criminal Jurisdiction, and for other purposes was referred, have already reported on so much of that Bill as relates to the Criminal Procedure of the High Courts . In that report the Committee explained that the course of discussion had led them to think it undesirable to deal in the same measure with two subjects so unconnected as the Criminal Procedure of the four High Courts and the Chief Court of the Panjab, and the Procedure of the Presidency Police Magistrates , and that the Bill had therefore been divided into two. The present Bill represents so much of the original Bill as related to the Police and to the procedure of the Police Magistrates in the Presidency towns .

2. The original Bill as introduced applied to the Police of the Presidency towns several Fchapters and sections of the Code of Criminal Procedure and, in particular, it proposed that Police Magistrates should exercise the miscellaneous powers conferred on a Magistrate of the District by section 30 of the Code . The Madras Government , however, has recently represented that these provisions would materially affect the constitution of the Police , and otherwise involve violent and undesirable changes in the relations at present existing between the Police and the Magistracy. In consequence of this opinion the present Bill omits from the list of chapters and sections of the Code appended to clause 40 of the Bill as introduced those that have reference to the Police, namely, chapters IX and X and sections 146 , 176-181, 379-387 , 415 , 416, 417 . The present Bill merely proposes to assimilate the judicial procedure of the Police Magistrates to that prescribed for Magistrates in the Mofussil.

3. The Bill proposes to repeal certain sections of the Police Acts, now in force in the Presidency towns, which sections will be superseded by the extension of sections 141 , 142 , 148, 119, 157, 308 and chapters XXVIII and XLI of the Code of Criminal Procedure .

4. The Bill omits , as unnecessary , the following parts of the Code : sections 175 and 201, the penultimate clause of section 308, the last proviso in section 328 , the last sentence of clause 2 of section 362 , section 390 , the penultimate paragraph of section 398, sections 419 and 420, and the last two clauses of section 489 .

5. Chapter VII of the Code (as to European British subjects) has been omitted as in- troducing an unnecessary and invidious distinction between European and Native Magistrates .

6. Section 148 of the Code has been modified so as to enable a case to be heard by a Magistrate other than the Magistrate by whom the summons was issued .

7. Chapter XII of the Code , sections 152 , 154, has been modified so as to relieve the Police Courts from the useless expense and labour of preparing in all cases copies of summonses .

8. Sections 159 to 174 of the Code will not apply so far as they relate to the issue of warrants to persons not being police officers .

9. In applying chapter XV, the last sentence of the first clause of section 198 and the second clause of section 202 have been omitted .

10. Chapter XXXVI ( of the dispersion of unlawful assemblies ) is omitted, as that chapter is to be expressly extended by the Bill to amend the Code of Criminal Procedure .

11. In the parts of the Code, which it is proposed to apply to the Presidency towns, the expressions Magistrate,' ' Magistrate of a District,' &c . , will include a Magistrate of Police .

12. The High Court at Fort William has represented to the Government of India in the Legislative Department that the limits which now restrict the jurisdiction of the Police Magis- trates in the matter of trying offences depend too much upon the artificial element of value ; and the consequence is that a very large portion of the time of jurors and High Court Judges at the Criminal Sessions is taken up in disposing of trivial cases which might have inexpen- sively , and most satisfactorily, been dealt with finally by the Magistrate himself at, perhaps , the first hearing. The Court thinks that this mischief ought to be removed by the proposed Act, and suggests that a good mode of doing so would be by defining the jurisdiction of the PoliceMagistrates after the method adopted for Magistrates in the Criminal Procedure Code.

13. The Government of India feel the force of this representation, and are inclined to adopt the suggestion so made for the removal of the evil complained of . But before doing so , it is thought desirable that the Local Governments and the Presidency High Courts should be invited to define more precisely the mode in which and the limits to which relief may be given to the High Courts in this respect ; and it is proposed that the present Bill together with this Statement should be sent to the Local Governments and High Courts concerned, with a view to obtaining the information above indicated.

CALCUTTA MUNICIPAL MARKETS BILL .

HIS HONOR THE PRESIDENT said he wished to explain to the Council that, owing to the unavoidable absence of their hon'ble colleague Mr. Schalch, it was 350 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 15 , 1874-

necessary that another hon'ble colleague, Mr. Stuart Hogg , should take charge of this Bill , namely , the Bill to amend Act VIII of 1871 , the Calcutta Markets Act. He had therefore to ask that Mr. Hogg would be good enough to take charge of the Bill on this occasion, and to proceed with the business .

THE HON'BLE MR . HOGG moved that the report of the Select Committee on the Bill to amend Act VIII of 1871 of the Bengal Council , " The Calcutta Markets Act, 1871," be taken into consideration in order to the settlement of the clauses of the Bill.

The motion was agreed to .

THE HON'BLE MR . HOGG moved that the clauses of the Bi'l be taken into consideration in the form recommended by the Select Committee.

The motion was agreed to .

THE HON'BLE MR. HOGG moved that in Section 1 , in the first clause, after the word " mean " the words " the Corporation of " be inserted . He said this was merely a verbal amendment , as he thought it would be wise, in defining the word " Justices ," that we should adhere to the definition of the term as given in Act VI of 1863 , which was the Act under which the Corporation of the town of Calcutta was constituted .

The motion was agreedto .

THE HON'BLE MR . HOGG said he had to propose a slight alteration in the second clause of Section 1. As the Bill now stood , " Market ' moans a market carried on under the control of the Justices of the Peace for the Town of Calcutta." In the amendment he had given notice of, he had suggosted that the words " carried on under the control " should be altered to " the rent of which is paid by, or which is the property. " But he would now ask permission to alter that slightly as follows :-" vested in or the property of the Justices ." The clause would then run "" market ' means a markot vested in or the proporty of the Justices , & c . " The reason for this slight alteration was that in Sections 5 and 6 it was proposed to give the Justices power to sell the markets within the meaning of the word " market " as defined in this Act . We could hardly give the Justices power to sell a market which was rented by the Justices , and not their property . Therefore we proposed to confine the meaning of the word " market " to markets vested in or the property of the Justices.

The motion was agreed to . THE HON'BLE MR. HOGG said Section 2 of the Bill before the Council dealt with the proposal to repeal some sections of the previous Act , Act VIII of 1871 . In accordance with the request of the Justices of the Peace, as submitted to the Council in their report, which was lately circulated among the members , he would suggest that the last three clauses of Section 2 be omitted , as the Justices were of opinion that it was not wise to repeal Sections 6 , 7, 8, and 9 of Act VIII of 1871 . The sections were really obsolete. However, as the Justices wished it , he did not think there could be any harm in conceding the point ; he therefore pro- posed that the last three clauses of Section 2 of the Bill be omitted. He would also propose that after the words " are hereby repealed " be inserted the words " In the preamble the words ' for the sale of meat, fish , fruit and vegetables . " The reason for this amendment was that the Select Committee had deemed it advisable not to define the word " market " at all, but merely to say it was a market vested in or the property of the Justices. The Bill was to be read as part of Act VIII of 1871. In the preamble of that Act it was stated that the object was to enable the Justices of the Peace to establish Municipal Markets for the sale of meat , fish , fruit, and vegetables , thereby assuming that a market was to be restricted to places for the sale of meat, fish, fruit , and vegetables . It was true that the preamble was no part of an Act. However, if the point should arise, there might possibly be slight compli- cations, owing to the preamble of Act VIII of 18.1 being somewhat in opposition to the Bill now before the Council . IHe would, therefore, suggest that the words- " In the preamble the words ' for the sale of meat, fish , fruit , and vegetables ' " be inserted after the words " are hereby repealed. " SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 15 , 1874. 351

THE HON'BLE THE ADVOCATE- GENERAL asked whether the hon'ble mover intended to give the Justices of the Peace power to erect , construct, and estab- lish markets for the sale of other things besides moat , fish , fruit , and vegetables ? The amendment was apparently a departure from the subject- matter of the remarks made on a former occasion. It seemed not only an unnecessary amendment of Act VIII of 1871 , but wouldbe giving very extensive powers without sufficient preliminary consideration.

THE HON'BLE MR . HOGG said the Bill before the Council restricted the word " market " to property vested in , or the property of, the Justices . Act VIII of 1871 enabled the Justices to establish Municipal Markets for the sale of meat , fish , fruit, and vegetables . That was merely stated in tho preamble. In the Act itself the powers of the Justices in regard to the establishment of markets were not restricted, except so far that they were not allowed to expend more than seven lakhs of rupees . The proamble being somewhat opposed to the body of the Act itself, it was proposed that those wordsbo omitted . He need hardly say that, in this country especially , when markets were established for the sale of meat, fish , fruit , and vegetables, it was almost impossible to restrict them to the sale of that class of provisions only, as there would also be sold in them miscellaneous articles of all sorts , such as charcoal , wood , salt , fowls , game, & c. , in fact , articles of every description would gradually be exposed for sale. Therefore , although the Justices had no desire to extend their powers , they would not wish their powers so curtailed as to prevent porsons from taking leases of shops for the purpose of exposing such other wares as they might deem necessary. MR. HOGG trusted , therefore, that the learned Advocate-General would not press his objection . THE HON'BLE THE ADVOCATE-GENERAL observed that the explanation was perfectly satisfactory.

The motion was agreed to .

THE HON'BLE MR . HOGG moved that in Section 3, at the end , the following words be added:-" Provided that before any application for such license shall be considered by the Justices at a meeting , the Chairman of the Justices shall cause the place, in respect of which application has been made, to be inspected by not less than three Justices , whose report shall be laid before the Justices at amecting . " He said this amendment was based entirely upon the sugges- tion sent up by the Justices , who appeared to be desirous that the exocutive authority, the Chairman of the Justices , should not pass orders in matters connected with the granting of licenses without the application for licenses being duly considered by the Justices in meeting. They were also desirous that three Justices , with the Chairman, should inspect the place, and submit a report in writing to the Justices in meeting; he therefore, in accordance with the recommendation of the Justices , proposed the amendment which he had read out in Section 3 .

The motion was agreed to .

THE HON'BLE MR. HOGG moved to omit clause (d) of Section 4, and to substitute for it the following: " For the establishment and publication of a price-current, and for prescribing the mode of sale of articles , whether by measure, weight, tale , or piece. " There seemed to be a want of lucidity in the wording of the clause as it now stood .

The motion was agreed to .

THE HON'BLE MR. HOGG said , at the suggostion of the Justices of the Peace, it was proposed that in Section 9 the words " Special General " be inserted after the words " for the Justices at a. " The object of the amendment was that the Justices desired that all mutters connected with the establishment of markets should be consideredby the Justices at a full meeting . A Special General Meeting implied that not less than twenty- five Justices would bo prosent, whereas , at an ordinary meeting only three Justices might be present .

He therefore proposed the amendment. The motion was agreed to .

THE HON'BLE MR . HOGG said, Section 11 of the amended Bill seemed rather ambiguous, in not defining distinctly the way prosecutions under this 352 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 15 , 1874 .

Act should be conducted . He, therefore , suggested in Section 11 to omit from the beginning to the word " thercof " in the fourth line, and to substitute the following words :-" Every prosecution in pursuance of this Act , or of any Act incorporated therewith , shallbe instituted before a Justice of the Peace, and every fine or penalty imposed by any bye- laws made in pursuance of this Act, or of any Act incorporated therewith-"

The motion was agreed to .

THE HON'BLE MR . HOGG Said Section 12 of the amended Bill enacted that this Act should be read with, and taken as part of, Bongal Acts VI of 1863 and VIII of 1871 , and all the powers , privileges, and rights conferred on the Justices by virtuo of, and for the purposes of, such last-mentioned Acts , should be deemed to be conferred on the Justices for the purposes of this Act , in so far as the same were applicable or necessary In addition to these Acts there were a number of other Acts which dove -tailed one into the other . He, therefore , suggested the following amendment : In Section 12 , in the second line, for " Acts " substitute " Act . " In the third line, omit the word and figures " VIII of 1871 " and substitute the words " all Bengal Acts incorporated therewith In the sixth line , omit the words " last mentioned . " By this amendment the Bill would be read as part and parcel of all the Municipal Acts that governed the municipality of the town of Calcutta. The motion was agreed to .

The last amendment, moved by the HON'BLE MR . HOGG , wasto omit the word " municipal " in the second line of Section 13. He thought this was necessary as they had not referred to the market as a municipal market either in this Bill or in the previous Act .

The motion was agreed to .

THE HON'BLE BABOO DOORGA CHURN LAW said he had the honor to move the following amendment : In Section 9, lines 11 , 12, 13 , and 14, omit the words " and for any other purpose or purposes which the Justices may deem necessary for establishing or carrying on the same or conducive thereto." The reason of his objection to this part of the section was fully explained in his note of dissent annexed to the report of the Select Committee , and all that he had to say was , that if this section were adoptedby the Justices , and they shaped their course accordingly , the result would be most mischievous so far as the rate-payers were concerned ; and, besides , in this section there was no limit to expenditure , so that if the Justices engaged in active competition , there might be no end of expense incurred. Ile did not mean to say that the Justices would spend money like water, but there was nothing in the Act to prevent them from doing so . For these reasons he objected to these words .

THE HON'BLE MR. IIOGG said he rose to oppose the proposal to omit the words " and for any other purpose or purposes which the Justices may deem necessary for establishing or carrying on the same or conductive thereto." IHe need hardly say that the Justices had in contemplation the purchase of the Dhurumtollah Market. If that proposal was carried into effect, there would be no necessity whatsoever for the Justices to enter into active competition or to spend monies in the way indicated by his hon'ble friend . However, the purchase of the market had not yet been completed, and he would submit that it was no part of the business of the Council to dictate to the Justices the way in which they should establish a municipal market, which they had erected with permission and under the authority of a legislative enactment. The Council was informed by the mover of this Bill, the HON'BLE MR. SCHALCH , that the idea was that this Bill should enable the Justices either to purchase the Dhurumtollah Market, or to close the Municipal Market , or to carry on the market in any way they should think proper ; and it was suggosted that power should be given to enable the Justices to act as they, in their wisdom , might think best. He was therefore strongly opposed to the powers that were intended to be conferred on the Justices being restricted. At the same time , he would state that there was no intention on the part of the Justices to spend money unnecessarily , or to waste the rate- payers' money in the manner in which his hon'ble friend seemed to fear. If the words were omitted, and if the 353 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 15 , 1874 .

Dhurumtollah Market should not be purchased, the Justices would find them- selves in a most embarrassing position , as they would be unable to sanction expenditure other than for the mere maintenance and repairs of the market , and keeping up a necessary establishment. He need hardly say that to estab- lish a market upon a firm footing with such a restriction would be absolutely impossible . On these grounds he opposed the amendment .

The motion was negatived .

HIS HONOR THE PRESIDENT said " Although this Bill has not reached its final stage, I yet deem it my duty to take this opportunity of declaring my general concurrence in the main principles of a Bill which appoars to have attracted some interest in the city of Calcutta. In order to satisfy myself as to the merits of the case, I have carefully inspected , in company with our hon'ble colleague, Mr. Hogg, and other municipal officers , both the new market and the old, orDhurumtolla market. I have also read all, or nearly all, the objections which have been urged against the measure, including the papers which have just been printed , and one of which bears so recent a date as the 8th April.

" I will not trouble the Council by attempting to enter into the details of the discussion ; but will merely suggest, for the consideration of the Council, the principal questions which present themselves to my mind, as affecting the root and substance of the measure which you are asked to sanction .

" The first question , then, in my opinion, is-

" Was the new market built by competent authority, and is it a good and suitable structure ?

" I understand that it was constructed under the directions of those who , at the time, had competent authority , and I should be prima facie disposed to sustain their action , unless there were strong reasons to the contrary . Then, I am quite sure that the structure is an excellent one, worthy of this great city and its municipality, worthy also of any support or sanction which may be required from this legislature. If it fulfils its present promise , it will prove quite worth the outlay which has been expended upon it.

" The next question, to my mind , is-

" Does this market fulfil a real need ?

" In reference to this , I have, among the papers relating to the Bill , read much about the usefulness of the private markets , and their sufficiency to meet all the requirements of the public. But, notwithstanding the fullest apprecia- tion of all that private enterprise has accomplished, or may yet accomplish, in the matter , I fear that private entorprise will not do all that is needed. As an instance, take the Dhurumtolla market . That is a market belonging to a public- spirited and wealthy native gentleman. It has long existed . It has lately been improved in a very commendable manner. We may assume that on the whole it is as good a market-place as we are likely to obtain by private enter- prise. And yet take it as it stands to -day. Can we examine it and say that it is all that a market-place ought to be at such a place as Calcutta ? or that it at all approaches in excellence the market by which it is to be replacod, if the Council pass this Bill ? Surely it is much too small, too low, too close, too confined, for the large purposes which it has to serve. And yet those purposes will probably become larger and larger as the business of the city grows and expands , and as the facilities of railway communication bring more and more the produce of distant places to our markets of Calcutta. I say, therefore, that a new and a better market- place was, and is , among the urgent needs of this city.

" The third question wouldbe- " If the new market- place has been well made, and is really wanted , ought it to be maintained by the municipality ?

" In most parts of India, I believe , in nearly all the large cities of India, the maintenance of the central market- places is undertaken by some corpora- tion or institution which represents the whole community . There, the task is found to bo beyond the power of any individual or number of individuals. It is at least as difficult in Calcutta as anywhore . The new market concerns an important section of the public . And whether the municipality be 354 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUSTA GAZETTE , APRIL 15 , 1874

technically a representative institution or not , it certainly does act on behalf of the public interest. Although the municipality may have power in respect to the regulating of private markets, still the administration is one which demands the entire force of the municipality as proprietor, as well as supervisor or inspector. And if the municipality be able to do the work better than it can be done otherwise , then surely this Council may be asked to concede such authority by law, as may be required for this arrangement .

" But then , if the new market be thus established by the municipality , there arisos this question , do justice and equity demand that compensation should be given to those pre- existing private rights , which would be injured or destroyed, by the unavoidable action of the municipality in the general interest ?

" Surely to this there can be but one answer, namely , that , in some way or other, such compensation ought to be arranged . And this compensation is virtually afforded by those sections of the Bill which relate to the purchasing by the municipality of the old market-place, for a price within the limit of an amount which constitutes a fair, even a liberal, price, and which, as I under- stand, the proprietors are willing to accept.

"There still, however, remains the question whether the terms of this arrangement are entirely fair to the rate -payers ; and whether it is right to add any amount, however small comparatively , to the municipal debt, on this account ?

" The answer to these questions must mainly depend on the opinion we form as to the nature and value of the property which the municipality would thus acquire. I should think that all who examine the situation of the old market- place, so convenient, so central, so accessible, will be convinced that such aproperty, by whomsoever held , whether by individuals or by a public body, cannot fail to be valuable, and worth such price as the municipality may settle under the terms of the Bill if passed by this Council . In other words , I think the Council may be sure that the property proposed to be purchased is a good and sound one . I acknowledge that it is most desirable to avoid adding anything more than can possibly be helped to the already large debt of the municipality. But I should hope that this particular property, if well managed (as it doubt- less will be by the Justices and their Chairman), will yield income as a set- off against the interest on the purchase-money, and thus prevent any burden for interest being thrown on the general rate-payers . I will not exactly anticipate the uses to which the Justices may see fit to apply the old market -place, if it shall be purchased . One suggestion I will, however, venture to throw out for consideration, namely this, that if the new market-place be used for raw produce, the old market-place may be devoted to products of manufacture ; to those varied and beautiful wares which are sent to Calcutta from so many parts of the East, which are so much admired by travellers and visitors from all nations , but which are , as yet, exposed for sale, not in open places of resort, but in narrow streets and inconvenient situations .

" For all these reasons I am prepared to support the Bill , and to recommend it for the approval of the legislature of Bengal. But , as I may be called away by duty to the northern parts of these provinces , I may be unable to be present at the passing of the Bill . If I should not be present, however, our

hon'ble colleague, Mr. Schalch, will preside." The Council was adjourned to Saturday, the 18th April .

PRESIDENCYDIVISION.

At the end of last week rain fell partly generally in a third part of the district, viz . the Koosteah sub - division and parts of the budder, Meherpore , and Chooadangah sub -divisions . In some places there was a storm. At Sudder Station , hot and dry . So far the weather has been favorable for the preparation for next season's crops.

39 Generally clear. In the afternoon of the 6th April there was a storm from the north -west . On other occasions there have been falls of rain visible in the distance. The reaping of the boro rice has begun, and the promise is good . The ground has been puostly cultivated for the carly rice , and sowing has begun here and there, but generally it waits for a heavy fall of rain. In Magoorah it is specially said that fallow land is being extensively taken up for the cultivation.

9 Moorshedabad, 11th , Nil There was a severe storm , accompanied with rain, in thannahs Jellinglice, Goas , and Nowada, and in parts of the Lallbaugh and Jungypore sub - divisions .

Indigo and mulberry are in good condition; but the demand for the latter has not been as active as was anticipated, owing to some disease having attacked the silkworms reared from the March bund. Many villages have recently suffered heavy losses by fire . Conflagrations are getting frequent. Relief has been afforded to many sufferers. Prices are in most markets stationary. Common rice is half a seer cheaper in the sudder bazar , but wheat has risen two seers in Gorabazar and Noweda. Small - pox and cholera are still prevalent ; the latter disease is spreading fast .

Kownee (millet) looking well , but needs rain The crops now being sown are jute and early rice . In Boda the early rice sowing is delayed for want of rain ; the land is so baked and parched with long drought that more rain than usual is needed now for the successful cultivation. Here and there a little paddy seed is sown , and in some low lands has germinated . The state of the people in South Boda is dependant on this crop turning out well, and it is to be hoped rain will soon fall . Itice has fallen in price generally all over the district , and if rain falls will become still cheaper .

The mohwa crop willbe a very'fair crop now , and the matugo is well reported from most parts, as also the jungle fruit. Pressure is reported from Gawan, but on the whole prospects have improved. Prices remain stationary at head -quarters ; but on the Grand Trunk Road in consequence of the importation of Government rice, though none has been sold, prices have fallen. There is more confidence among the people. General health is good , but cases of small -pox are reported scattered throughout the district . No cattle disease reported this year as yet .

41 Lohardugga, 11th April 1874

Nil Dry and hot , with warm winds. The cold weather crops are now nearly all cut, and arebeing thrashed out. Outturn fair as far as is known at present . In Palamow there is a small area of cheena (millet ) on the ground , and sugarcane p'anting is going on . The mohwa crop is a splendid one both in Palamow and Toree pergunnah, where it was most wanted . In the latter place it is now selling at 1 maunds per rupee. Small -pox rather prevalent in parts, otherwise the general health is good. Prices much the same.

Nil Hot and dry weather . Nothingto add to last week's return . Cholera still reported from Dhalbhoom .

Nil

43 Maunbhoom , 11th April 1874 .

Hot and seasonable . There are no crops on the ground except sugarcane, which is being planted , but the mohwa flowers are falling freely and being gathered up. The trees are plentiful in the north and south of the district , but scarce in the centre, especially in the Rughoonathpore Moonsiff's circle, where not much food will be obtained from them . In some places the people are living entirely on mohwa, which is causing some sickness . When mixed with rice it does not prove injurious, but eaten alone or in too great quantities or insuffi ciently cooked, it produces indigestion, bowel diseases , and dysentery. Ploughing has ceased and cannot be resumed unless rain falls . General health good.

Tolegram of the 14th April, received onthe same day, shows rainfall during the seven days immediately preceding .

The mean barometer , as likewise the dry and wet bulb thermometer means, are derived from the twenty- four hourly observations made during the day .

Thedew-point is computed with the Greenwich constants . The figures in columu 10 represent the humidity of the air, the complete saturation of which being taken at unity . The receiver of the lower rain gauge is 14 feet, and that of the anemometer 70 feet 10 inches above the level of the ground . The velocity of wind , as indicated by Robinson's anemometer , is registered from noon to noon .

11. The meeting then proceeded to consider a memorandum by Mr. Dalyell . The Chairman expressed his regret that Mr. Dalyell was unable, owing to indisposition , to be present to explain his views in person. In any case, however, he thought that it a letter was to be written at all, it should be addressed, not to the Government of India but to the Government of Bengal. But it appeared to him that the objects aimed at by Mr. Dalyell , as far as he understood them , were, in fact , secured by the rules laid down by Government and the notification published by the Committee, Nor did he see reason to velieve that the funds already allotted had not been duly utilised under those rules , or that there could be any difficulty in utilising the balance of the fund as well as subsequent subscriptions in the future . The Meeting agreed generally in the Chairman's views and resolved, as at present advised, to take no action in the direction suggested .

The accounts of relief operations laid before the committee , shewed a total of 15,406 persons relieved by gratuitous distribution of food from the 1st to the 28th March 1874. at the four centres of Coddea , Soorool , Sekedda ( Mouressur) , and Labpore , giving an average of 513 persons daily. The number of persons in receipt of thread , cotton , and advances , was shewn to be 148 , and the money expended up to the 4th April amounted to Rs . 2,895-15-10 . inclusive of the Rs . 1,000 advanced for purchase and storage of 1,000 maunds of rice at Soorool . The relief fund at the disposal of the committee amounts to . Rs. 13,570-9-9 , exclusive of the sums received from Government. * expended

Itwas resolved-

(1.) That, with a view to extend further the relief operations of the district , a relief centre be opened at Batikar (Shahapore) , under the superintendence of Baboo Protap Chunder Shiuha , and that a small quantity of rice ( 10 maunds )be placed in each thana and outpost for distribution to the destitute.

(2. ) That Doctor R. A. Barker, J. M.

Proceedings of the Executive Committee of the Burdwan District Relief Committee at a meeting held on the 11th April 1874.

The Secretary produced the accounts , and reported that the total amount of receipts up to date had been Rs . 25,276, and the total expenditure , including the cost of the 2,000 maunds of rice agreed to be purchased at the last meeting , Rs. 16,850. The present available balance therefore was Rs . 8,926 . As regarded the liabilities of the fund , he said there were now 21 famine food-depôts at work , and 6 more were about to be opened in Cutwa . Taking the daily attendance at each to be 400 , the cost of these 27 depôts would be Rs . 395 a day or Rs . 11,850 a mouth . To this must be added the cost of 9 fever food- depôts , Rs . 700, the permanent advances to relief officers , Rs . 500 , and advances to weavers , say Rs . 2,000 . Hence, he estimated the probablę total monthly outgoings of the fund would not be less than Rs. 15,000. Aconsiderable portion of this , however, would be recovered from the proceeds of the paupers' labour, and from the sale of the cloth manufacturedby the weavers under advances .

The Chairman said he hoped to be able to keep the monthly expenditure much below this figure, though it would be difficult to do so. The experience alreadyalready gainedgained had shown that wherever a food - depôt was opened the whole low - caste population of the neighbourhood, Domes , Bagdis , Haris , & c ., at once flocked to it, and that most of the village, sub -committ: es, 784

THE CALQUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874 .

[PART I.

inspite of rules and strict oral injunctions given by himself and the Secretary, persisted in admitting all comers without any discrimination. He considered that the present high average of attendance at these depôts was not by any means a proof of such very extensive distress as it would seem to indicate , but simply a proof of lax management on the part of the village sub- committees. To check this abuse he had already parcelled out the distressed area into circles and appointed relief inspectors to each,ach , with (amongst others) orders to visit the food- depôts continually and insist on the exclusion of persons not in need of gra- tuitous or semi- gratuitous relief, and on the enforcement of the labour test in the case of allable-bodied paupers . He also intended to make use of the medical, educational , and police inspecting officers as a supervising and inspecting agency to further control the action of the village sub -committees. If these measures failed to make the village sub - committees use due discrimination, there would be nothing for it but to leave them no discretion at all in the matter , and to confine and limit them to the single function of feeding only the particular persons selected by the relief officers as proper subjects for relief. He thought that, with proper management , the average daily attendance at these depôts ought not to be over 200 or 250 at each , and that the total monthly expenditure ought , unless distress much increased , to be kept within Rs . 10,000 a month . On these grounds he recommended that the Central Relief Committee should be asked to grant a sum of Rs . 10,000 only in aid of relief operations in Burdwan for the month of May. This proposal was agreedto .

Thefollowing resolutions also were passed : -

(2.) That the Civil Surgeon and the inspecting medical and educational officers be asked to join the committee and to visit the food -depôts in their respective circles.

(3. ) That the Police Sub - Inspectors be constituted members of all the village sub- committees in their respective thanas and asked to watch the working of the food - depôts .

(4.) That permanent advances for relief of urgent cases be made to the relief superintendent and reliet inspectors . The former to have Rs . 20 and the latter Rs . 15 a piece .

(5.) That the reports of distress in certain villages in thanas Khondo- hose, Gangoor , and Shahibgunge be referred for enquiry to the relief superintendent; those of distress amongst weavers in Goghat to the Jehanabad sub - committee ; and those about Poorocha and Gopalpore to the Bhedia and Chanuk relief inspectors .

(6.) The Secretary reported having visited and regulated the food -depôts at Mahata and Khanoo, at the latter of which the admissions had been most indiscriminate.

STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS .

The Select Committee to which the Bill to regulate the Procedure of the High Courts in the exercise of their Original Criminal Jurisdiction, and for other purposes was referred , have already reported on so much of that Bill as relates to the Criminal Procedure of the High Courts . In that report the Committee explained that the course of discussion had led them to think it undesirable to deal in the same measure with two subjects so unconnected as the Criminal Procedure of the four High Courts and the Chief Court of the Panjab , and the Procedure of the Presidency Police Magistrates, and that the Bill had therefore been divided into two. The present Bill represents so much of the original Bill as related to the Police and to the procedure of the Police Magistrates in the Presidency towns .

2. The original Bill as introduced applied to the Police of the Presidency towns several chapters and sections of the Code of Criminal Procedure and, in particular, it proposed that Police Magistrates should exercise the miscellaneous powers conferred on a Magistrate of the District by section 30 of the Code . The Madras Government , however , has recently represented that these provisions would materially affect the constitution of the Police, and otherwise involve violent and undesirable changes in the relations at present existing between the Police and the Magistracy. In consequence of this opinion the present Bill omits from the list of chapters and sections of the Code appended to clause 40 of the Bill as introduced those that have reference to the Police , namely, chapters IX and X and sections 146, 176-181 , 379-387 , 415, 416, 417. The present Bill merely proposes to assimilate the judicial procedure of the Police Magistrates to that prescribed for Magistrates in the Mofussil.

3. The Bill proposes to repeal certain sections of the Police Acts, now in force in the Presidency towns, which sections will be superseded by the extension of sections 141 , 142, 148, 149, 157, 308 and chapters XXVIII and XLI of the Code of Criminal Procedure .

4. The Bill omits , as unnecessary , the following parts of the Code : sections 175 and 201, the penultimate clause of section 308, the last proviso in section 328, the last sentence of clause 2 of section 302, section 800, the penultimate paragraph of section 398, sections 419 and 420 , and the last two clauses of section 489 .

5. Chapter VII of the Code (as to European British subjects) has been omitted as introducing an unnecessary and invidious distinction between European and Native Magistrates.

6. Section 148 of the Code has been modified so as to enable a case to be heard by a Magistrate other than the Magistrate by whom the summons was issued .

THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

[PART VI

7. Chapter XII of the Code , sections 152 , 154, has been modified so as to relieve the Police Courts from the useless expense and labour of preparing in all cases copies of summonses .

8. Sections 159 to 174 of the Code will not apply so far as they relate to the issue of warrants to persons not being police officers .

9. In applying chapter XV, the last sentence of the first clause of section 198 and the second clause of section 202 have been omitted .

10. Chapter XXXVI (of the dispersion of unlawful assemblies ) is omitted, as that chapter is to be expressly extended by the Bill to amend the Code of Criminal Procedure .

11. In the parts of the Code , which it is proposed to apply to the Presidency towns , the expressions Magistrate,' ' Magistrate of a District,' & c . , will include a Magistrate of Police .

12. The High Court at Fort William has represented to the Government of India in the Legislative Department that the limits which now restrict the jurisdiction of the Police Magis- trates in the matter of trying offences depend too much upon the artificial element of value; and the consequence is that a very large portion of the time of jurors and High Court Judges at the Criminal Sessions is taken up in disposing of trivial cases which might have inexpen- sively, and most satisfactorily, been dealt with finally by the Magistrate himself at, perhaps, the first hearing . The Court thinks that this mischief ought to be removed by the proposed Act, and suggests that a good mode of doing so would be by defining the jurisdiction of the Police Magistrates after the method adopted for Magistrates in the Criminal Procedure Code .

13. The Government of India feel the force of this representation, and are inclined to adopt the suggestion so made for the removal of the evil complained of. But before doing so , it is thought desirable that the Local Governments and the Presidency High Courts should be invited to define more precisely the mode in which and the limits to which relief may be given to the High Courts in this respect ; and it is proposed that the present Bill together with this Statement should be sent to the Local Governments and High Courts concerned, with a view to obtaining the information above indicated .

CALCUTTA MARKETS ACT .

THE HON'BLE MR. HOGG said he rose morelv to move a vorbal amendment . The reason for it was this, that by Section 12 of the Bill as first drafted , the Act was to be called the " Calcutta Municipal Markets Amendment Act. " The Council at the last meeting struck out the word " Municipal " in that section , leaving the designation of the Act the " Calcutta Markets Amend- ment Act . " Ho proposed that the preamble shouldbe made to fit in with the wording of what was now Section 13 of the Bill. IHe therefore took leave to move that the word " Municipal " in the 6th line of the preamble be left out .

The motion was agreed to .

372 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22, 1874 .

THE HON'BLE MR. HOGG said , as this Bill had now been before the Council for several weeks, and had been fully discussed , he would not detain the Council with any remarks on the Bill. He therefore moved that the Bill be passed.

The HON'BLE MR. ELDRIDGE said , before recording his vote in favor of the passing of this Bill, he desired to give some of the reasons which induced him to reconcile himself to a measure which had interested the public to an unusual extent, and called forth from influential quarters considerable opposition . The question was simply one of expediency, when viewed from the stage at which it had reached. It would be useless to discuss the question of the advisability of having a Municipal market, or whether the one in possession of the Justices was the best that could have been devised . His Honor the Lieute- nant- Governor had at the last meeting of the Council urgued those points fully, and MR. ELDRIDGE had nothing to add to them . The market existed. Whether it was good, bad, or indifferent as a market or as a building was another question : the fact remained that it was there , and the question was , what should be done with it in the interests of the tax - payers ? It had on several occasions " been called a white elephant," but to his mind the simile was an extremely incorrect one . He believed there was a great demand for white elephants ; and if the Justices had one they would be able to dispose of it on the most advantageous terms ! But to sell the new market would involve a very serious loss . It was either a market , or it was nothing. Was it good policy, then, to allow it to go to decay and ruin ; to sink the considerable amount ofmoney already expended, leaving the interest as a perpetual legacy to the tax-payers of Calcutta ? Would it not be more expedient to endeavour to make it pay a fair percentage on the investment by the judicious expenditure of more money ?

TheAct passed by this Council in 1871 gave permission for the construction of a Municipal market, and gave the Justices , as they then believed, power to maintain it after it was built . It appeared now that some doubts existed as to the legal right of the Justices to carry on a market after its construction , and this Council was asked to supply what was apparently inadvertently omitted in the Market Act of 1871. To that , he confossed , he saw no objection . On the contrary , it appeared to him that this was the best , and would prove in the end the least expensive, means of overcoming the difficulties which had threatened the new market ever since it was opened . The Bill before the Council did not state how the money should be expended, or what course the Justices should pursue; and to his mind it wouldbe manifestly improper to attempt to exert any such control . The Bill simply gave the Justices power to act , and left them to apply those powers as they thought best. As that body was composed of representatives from nearly every section of the community, and amongst its members there were several of the largest property - holders and tax - payers in Calcutta, it seemed to MR. ELDRIDGE that it was a power that might be safely left in their hands, and he knew not any number of persons on whom such confidence might be more worthily bestowed. Under these circumstances he thought it right to vote in favor of this Bill .

The motion was agreed to .

The Council was adjourned to a day of which notice would be given.

2. The weather during the fortnight under report has continued favor- able on the whole . Rain has fallen in most of the districts of the Rajshahye , Dacca, and Chittagong divisions, and also in parts of North Bhaugulpore and Purneah. This has been very opportune for the early rice sowings , and all the accounts show that a larger area than usual is prepared for this crop . More rain is required , and the weather seems sufficiently unsettled to make it possible to hope for this . In the Patna division the drought still continues , and the millets and pulse now approaching maturity are withering for want of moisture , while it will be impossible to prepare the ground for rice sowing without some heavy showers . 0.0 0.0 00 1-57 00 1-93 079 119 6.26 815 155 0.0 00 0-0 rain, 0-0

3. In the districts of Hooghly, Howrah, and Bankoora of the Burdwan division, prices have remained stationary , or with a Price of grain. tendency to fall. In Beerbhoom they have slightly

risen. In Burdwan, although, the price- current shows the price of common rice at over 14 seers per rupee , the Collector reports that in the interior of Bood-bood it is only procurable at 10 seers per rupee, or even less . There is no marked change in the Presidency division. In the Rajshahye division prices have risen slightly in Dinagepore, but were in the district narratives reported easier in Moorshedabad , Rajshahye and Maldah owing to private importations. At Rungpore sudder station they suddenly rose from Rs. 4 to Rs. 6-8 a maund , owing , it is said , to the demand for carriage on account of Government grain having paralyzed private trade . Only about 600 carts in all are here at present taken up for Government ; and Mr. Robinson, the Relief Commis- sioner, reportsrts that he has no doubt Rungpore could easily supply many more were proper rates paid. He is himself looking into this . From the district narrative it does not appear that prices in the interior have been at all affected. They are, however, extremely high throughout the south and west of this district. In the more eastern districts of Bengal the rates are either stationary or lower, except in Mymensing , which shows a rise. In Behar , south of the Ganges , the reaping of the rubbee crop has cheapened food-grains somewhat . North of the Ganges the harvest has not had the same effect , and in Soopool an upward tendency is observed notwithstanding the harvesting of a very fair spring crop .

The prico- current for the two weeks under report will be found at enclosure No. 2 .

4. The in- gathering of the rubbee or spring harvest has , in most of the State of the crops . Behar districts , been now brought to an end . In all those south of the Ganges the outturn has been

much better than was originally anticipated ; and in the Bhagulpore division, north of the Ganges, the yield hashas been on the whole very fair. In Sarun, however, the results are less satisfactory . The severe hail- storm of last month did much damage to the crop in parts , while the outturn generally appears to have been unequal , and in some tracts considerably below expec- tation . The firmness maintained by prices in spite of the reaping of this , ordinarily a most important crop in Sarun, is looked upon by the local officers as an unfavorable sign . In Chumparun the cheena , or lesser millet, was in a precarious condition from want of rain, except in tracts where irrigation had kept it alive. The outturn of the spring crop had not been here very satisfactory , and in the worst part of the district-Ramnuggur-there had been none tonone to speak of. In Tirhoot the cheena (millet ) , and moong ( pulse), are suffering from the continued drought, and it is impossible to prepare the land for rice. In all those districts where the mohwa tree grows , such as Bhagulpore , Monghyr , the Sonthal Pergunnahs , and the Chota Nagpore division, the crop this year has been singularly full and abundant, forming a most material addition to the food- supply of the poorer classes . In the Rajshahye division the rain which was much wanted to enable the ryots to complete the sowing of the early autumn crop has fallen pretty generally, and though more is still required, the sowings are now on the whole well-advanced. The silk- crop , which is always

Seed-grain.

precarious , has , in the Rajshahye district , unfortunately proved a failure . 5. The question of seed -grain has become of more immediate interest in Eastern Bengal , where sowings are earlier than in Behar . The Collector of Dinagopore writes :-

"As the bhadoi sowings have not yet been completed , it is not easy to determine with certainty the question of sufficiency of seed-grain, to which the attention of all circle officers has now for some time been directed . The impression, however, is that seed -grain, both for bhadoi and hemantee (autumn and winter rice) , will be forthcoming , though at high rates . The inquiries made by the circle officers show that the people are themselves fully alive to the difficulty, and that dealors are purchasing and storing the produce of last harvest. I am more and more convinced that there is a sufficiency of seed -grain in the country, a stock which the sale of Government rice will tend to keep up. " The price will however be high . Already in one district the price of seod-grain is higher than that of cleaned rice. In Rungpore it is noted that though SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 375

the ryots sometimes complained of want of seed , the lands where ready have all been sown , and a much larger area than usual has been cultivated with early rice. In the other districts of the Rajshahye division there will almost certainly be no lack of sced -grain. The view that seed would probably not be wanting was that taken by the late Lieutenant- Governor at paragraph 27 of his Tirhoot note appended to last narrative. Steps are being taken to assist, through the zemindars, those ryots who may be unable to buy seed at the high prices now ruling. In Tirhoot the subject has not been lost sight of, as the following extract from the district narrative will show : -

"Mr. MacDonnell and the sub - divisional officer of Hattee are now directing their atten- tion to the relief of cultivators and small farmers whom it is difficult to bring to our relief works . To these they are making advances in money for seed - grain and in grain for their own support. The principle they have adopted is that of making advances to the applicants by whole villages , the applicants entering into an association or systersystem of frank pledge for repayment, their estimate being based on returns submitted by putwarees showing the quan- tity of land cultivated by each applicant, and the quantity of seed -grain required being calculated at the rate of 20 seers per beegha. In some instances they have persuaded zemin- dars to take the seed advances into their own hands ; and one zemindar, Baboo Bunsee Dareer of Ragopore, proprietor of nearly half the Lehra circle , is specially mentioned for the public spirit and humanity which he has displayed in this respect, and in the administration of relief operations on his estates under their directions ."

No special reference is made to the subject in the Sarun and Chumparun narratives, but it is incidentally mentioned that in one sub-division of thelatter district fully two-thirds of the rice lands had been already prepared for the next sowings . From Purneah it is reported that the trade in seed-grain is brisk .

Supply of grain.

6. The supplies of grain in the local markets are , in most districts of Behar, still sufficient to meet the demand , and have been supplemented to some extent by the new rubbee grain which is already coming into the market . In the interior of Durbhunga , however, supplies are said to be scarce save in one or two large bazars . In Mudhoobunnee, where the same scarcity had shown itself, the sale of Government rice has brought into the market stocks of other grains held by petty traders . At a few places in Seetamurhee, and in one or two bazars in Sarun, and at Bukhtiarpore in Monghyr, there was some failure of supplies. But generally throughout Behar the inferior grains are still procurable, though rice is everywhere very dear, and frequently not to be got . In the Rajshahyo districts rice is becoming more and more difficult to buy , though other grains are generally available in sufficient quantity. The Dinagepore district officer thinks , however , that everything now points to exhaustion in the stocks of food- grains in that district , and traces a steady falling off in supplies , while the people are said to be anxious for the opening of theof the Government golahs . In Rungpore also, along the south- west and south of the district, deficiency is apparent until the tract on the east is reached, which is supplied by importation from the Brahmapooter. In all other parts of the district food is procurable at high prices . This is also the case generally in the Chota Nagpore and Burdwan divisions .

7. The railway is still carrying into Behar considerable supplies of grain on account of private traders . The figures for the Private importations. fortnight ending the 4th April were-

The figures for the preceding fortnight were 17,928 tons from the North - West, and 7,737 tons from Calcutta.

The block at Patna city station reported in last narrative has been removed through the active aid of the Magistrate, and orders have been given for constructing at once a new siding and station yard, and otherwise improving 376 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874 .

the traffic arrangements in order to provent a recurrence of the difficulty (see appendix E. ) A fall of prices in the Patna bazar led to a slackening in the rate of private import to Behar from the Punjab . The Government has not yot received a final report on the subject, but it is believed that the falling off was only temporary . The amount of private grain sent up from Calcutta also shows a falling off, possibly in consequence of the orders that Government grain should have priority of despatch . It is to be hoped , however, that carriage will be found for all the private as well as for the Government grain, and the Railway Company have been told that it is not intended to displace private grain despatches , but only that grain should take priority over ordinary traffic.

In the Rajshahye division there is a tolerably brisk private import into Rajshahye and Maldah on the Ganges, and to the parts of Rungpore lying near the Brahmapooter .

Export of grain by sea .

8. The usual note on the movement of food-grains will be found at appendix A. The Collector of Customs has fur- nished a consolidated statement showing the export offood-grains from Bengal ports during the month of Marclı . The total export beyond Bengal was 16,933 tons , making a total of 190,094 tons since the 1st October last .

9. The condition of the people is very fully explained in the district narra- tives (enclosures NoNos . 4 , 5, 6, 7, 8 , and 9 ) . The Condition of the people. increasing numbers flocking to our relief works indi- cate increasing soverity in the pressure caused by high prices and a deficient market; and thithis fact is perhaps specially significant from its being very general , and occurring at a time when the cutting of the rubbee harvest afforded in many parts remunerative employment to large numbers of the laboring class . Every week,however, sees the relief organisation more complete and more competent to deal with distress . And on the whole, it may be said that (thanks sololy to the Govornment provision of work and food) the condition of the people in the dis- tressed districts is not worse . The famine has been got well in hand, and will , it may be hoped, be effoctually met and averted. The Commissioner of Patna writes: " Distress in the north of Chumparun and Tirhoot has continued to increase steadily, and the number of people resorting to the relief works is daily becoming larger. The organisation for dealing with these distressed masses is, however, daily improving ; and what wore three weeks ago hungry mobs, clamorous for relief, are now by degrees being transformed into organised gangs of work-people, while those unable to work have been woeded out and made recipients of gratuitous relief, light-labor gangs being formed for those who are unable to join the able- bodied working portion . The relief circles have now all been provided with officers , and arrangements are being made for starting village works in each circle , so as to prevent overcrowding on the roads and the larger works ; and it is to be hoped that by this means much useful work will be done, while the dangers arising from the massing of large and unmanageable bodies of people on a few great works will be avoided. "

At appendix D will be found minutes by Sir Richard Temple summarising the principal statistics of distress, and the measures taken by Government to meet this emergency .

10. A very full account was given in last narrative of the measures adopted in North Tirhoot. The present state of things in those tracts may be gathered from the following North Tirhoot. extracts:-

" In Seetamurhee sub - division the condition of the people has improved generally , but isolated cases of distressed women and children are still to be found . For all such cases the . sub - divisional officer is specially providing . "

In Durbhunga the sub -divisional officer has observed a marked improve- ment among the people, especially in the direction of Bahora. He writes:- " I had myself grouped round Bahera, where I have no doubt the distress was as pro- nounced as in any other village in the sub -division These were the villages in which I, in a SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1974. 377

former report, declared that famine had commenced . As then, so now, I had all the poor assembled; and were it not that I was assured by the jest ryot and putwaree , and group- inspector, that no famine -deaths had occurred, and that in the people now before me I saw the starving creatures of a month ago , I scarcely could have credited the change. I visited the village when the putwaree was distributingaree was distributing the daily allowance. There were no complaints whatever, and the improved condition of the recipients proved that the village headmen had not deprived them of Government charity . Indeed, this system of village - relief everywhere Iwent I found working well. "

Bahera was , it will be remembered , the tract where actual famine had shown itself, and anxiety regarding which was one of the chief causes of Sir George Campbell's visiting Tirhoot last month .

The Mudhoobunnee sub - divisional officer writes :-

" The time has now come when I must say that distress is general throughout the sub- division. A few favoured tracts , such as the neighbourhood of Ladma and Hurlaki thanas , are still comparatively fairly well off ; but the fact that we have little less than half the population on our hands shews that distress is severe in general. But for the Government roads, we could not have hoped to cope with it . "

From Mudhoobunnee several deaths are reported, five at least of which were probably due to privation or disease induced thereby. It is impossible to prevent such cases among the old and helpless , or among children, the classes which in fact furnish most of these cases . Every effort is, however, being made to discover and relieve thosein want by careful village visitation and inspection, while food and work are everywhere available for all who will come for them. No famine deaths are reported from any other sub -divisions of Tirhoot . The water supply is unfortunately failing from want of rain, and should the needed showers not speedily fall a great aggravation of distress must undoubtedly be looked for.

South Tirhoot .

11. In the Sudder , Hajipore, and Tajpore Divisions there is an increasing demand for work , but the condition of the people is, on the whole, not much changed for the worse. The accounts given a few weeks back of the state of some parts of the Sudder Sub -division have been found to be exaggerated. This tract, however , needs careful watching, and a circle organization has been formed to that end. The planters have come forward readily here, as they had already done elsewhere , to aid in looking after the village relief. The tobacco crop in Tajpore is expected to assist the ryots much , but there is some difficulty about getting the produce down to the Ganges as so many carts are taken up for carriage of grain. The Lieutenant- Governor has caused enquiry to be mado as to whether return carts and Railway empties could not be made available for this purpose , and has sanctioned advances being given upon the security of the crop in case ofneed .

12. In Sarun the ample provision of work made by Government has prevented any deterioration in the condition of the people. From Chumparun the same fact is reported. The people have been saved by the measures adopted for their relief, which are now described The rest of Behar, as being in good working order. Even in Ram- nuggur, where the inhabitants depend almost entirely on Government help, direct or indirect, their state is reported to be sufficiently satisfactory. In North Bhagulpore the worst cases on the works are wanderers from Tirhoot. Village visitation is in progress , and will , it is hoped, bring to light any lurking distress , if such exists . In Monghyr there has been no change for the worse, rather the contrary, as the spring harvest has been good, and about six lakhs of rupees on account of opium payments have been distributed among the cultivators . In Bukhtiarpore only did the Relief Superintendent find very marked distress , where in two villages grain had to be doled out to 350 persons of the lowest classes who were found quite " famine- stricken . " In Purneah 878 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874 .

no change for the worse is reported, but incendiary fires are said to be becoming frequent. In the Sonthal Pergunnahs the " people look well every- where," though they are said to be nearly at the end of their stores in parts; but , as the Deputy Commissioner romarks , " Sonthals would be merry and eat full meals up to their last handful of maize. " Fortunately the Sonthals take very readily to out-door labor, and of this enough is provided .

The Rajshahye Division .

13. In Moorshedabad, the old , infirm, and beggars are coming more on charitable relief, and thethe pressure is tightening in some parts , as indicated by the increasing resort of laborers to the works . The failure of the silk crop in Rajshahye will add to the distress there , but this is not as yet at all severe . Both here and in Moorshedabad arrangements have been made for careful inspection by circle officers (without , however, a full subordinate agency as in Tirhoot) and the doubtful parts will be closely watched.. In Dinagepore the sale of Government grain and the ample supply of work has checked any development of distress . From the south of Rungpore the accounts are less favorable. Near Sadullapore and Govindgunge the village inspection has disclosed " greater distress than was anticipated." The district report says :-

" In the tract lying west of the Kurotya , the state of the villages is wretched bevond description ; the people have sold everything they possessed, and are now solely dependent on Government Many have sold their plough- cattle the last thing with which a Bongalee ryot parts . I found one instance where a man had sold the roof over his head. Many ryots have deserted the place altogether and gone to Bogra and elsewhere . The relief officer reports that the people seem to be most grateful for the relief works The villages in this quarter are now quite deserted in the day- time. Every one is to be found on the road ; the womenare now coming readily, bringing their children with them . All are most anxious to get Government rice. The want of water is felt nearly as keenly as the want of food. In many villages people have to go two or three miles to bring a gharah of water. I have begun to excavate three old tanks in the worst parts, and am digging wells at every mile along the roads . A few cases of cholera, with one death , have occurred among the coolies . In many tracts on the south and the south - west of the district the poorer classes of ryots havebeen obliged to sell or pledge the few things they have . Many complain of the difficulty of having only one full meal of rice a day , and of having to eke out the second meal with various coarse substitutes for rice . There is much widely - diffused distress which is being carefully looked after , and relief to meet the circumstances that arise in each locality is promptly organised on the spot . "

InMaldah it is feared that relief operations must be extended , and village-to- village inspection made, even in those tracts which have not hitherto been con- sidered distressed. The numbers requiring relief in the north - west of the district are increasing rapidly ; but no cases of starvation have yet been reported . The accounts received of late from Pubna, and especially from the Serajgunge division of that district , have been somewhat unfavorable . The parts border- ing upon the distressed tracts of Rungpore, Dinagepore, and Rajshahye , may very possibly require more active assistance before the season is over. Meantime the Lieutenant-Governor has directed the opening of reliof works , and authorised the Magistrate, in case of emergent need, to indent upon the nearest golahs of the neighbouring districts .

14. There has been some change for the worse in the Bood-bood, and to some extent in the Cutwa sub -divisions of the The Burdwan division . Burdwan district . The Collector reports that ou personal inspection he finds the condition of the people in many villages wrotched in the extreme. The endemic fever has already reduced the standard of health in those parts, and the number of applicants for relief has now become very consi- derable. The Lieutenant- Governor has himself gone to look into matters , and will give such the order supplementar will give such further orders , supplementary to the measures of relief already There is nothing fresh to report regarding any of the other districts of this division. The numbers on works and receiving charitable relief have increased , as was to be expected , with the advance of the season, but ample provision has been made to meet all needs . The Jungle SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 379

Mehals of Midnapore , a remoto tract , regarding which some anxiety was feltet first , are now believed to be safe from anything like severe distress.

15. A full report by Colonel Dalton upon the condition of the Chota The Chota Nagpore division. Nagpore division to the end of March will be found at No. 8 of the enclosures . It will be seen that Palamow still continues to be the most distressed tract in this division , and that many people come to the works in an emaciated state. The relief organisation has been considerably strengthened here , and will now be able, it is hoped, to meet all demands on it. To both Manbhoom and Hazareebagh Government grain has been sent. In both districts , however, as well as in Palamow, the mohwa crop has given much relief to the poor . Work is provided for all who require it , and gratuitous relief is being given to those who cannot work . From Singbhoom the Deputy Commissioner reports :-

" The relief works that have been opened out in this district are proving of the utmost benefit, and there can be no doubt that but for them the short crops of the past season would have pressed hardly on the poorest . The assistance rendered was all required , and it is hoped and expected that through it the season will be tided over till the next crops . The mohwa and other wild fruit crops , more especially in the Kolhan, are turning out mercifully abundant, and they will supply food to the poorest for the next two months . The mohwa trees in the Kolhan are laden with blossoms in the most extraordinary manner , and blossoms themselves are of huge size and bursting with richness . Every tree is guarded with the most jealous care from the cattle . The Kols also prepare and eat the sced of the sål tree ; and the sål trees this year are , beyond all experience , in most abundant bloom. It is no exaggera- tion to say that in the Kolhan forests 99 out of every 100 trees have blossomed , and blossomed in the most amazing way. In most cases literally not a leaf can be seen from the profusion and wealth of blossom . Other jungle fruits , the cha especially , are also in great abundance this year."

15. Fears have been felt from time to time lest the trade demand upon the eastern districts . of the Dacca and Chittagong Mymensing . divisions for rice to supply the more distressed tracts to the west should affect unfavorably the position of the exporting tracts themselves . During the last week accounts have been received from Mymen- sing to the effect that in a small part of the Jamalpore sub - division there is adeficiency in the local food - supply. A proposal to import some Govern- ment grain has been submitted by the Commissioner. The Lieutenant- Governor has directed careful inquiry to be made as to the necessity of this . It seems probable that , surrounded as it is by districts which had surplus crops, this little corner may, by a little arrangement and stimulus given to local trade, be able to get supplies . Of course , if Government grain is really required, it will be given, and fortunately can be easily delivered by the Brahmapooter steamers at a ghât nearly opposite Kaligunge , where the Rungpore supplies are now being landed .

16. In the Presidency division the only tracts regarding which any anxiety has been felt , are the north- west corner of Nuddea The Presidency Division . near Moorshedabad, and a small part of the Satkhira sub -division of the 24 - Pergunnahs . In Nuddea the system of advances for works connected with land improvements and water-supply has led to the employment of the distressed poor in considerable numbers by private persons . About 4,000 souls thus find employment , besides 1,150 who are employed on Government roads ; while weaving and spinning is provided for those who cannot labor out of doors . These measures have hitherto proved sufficient. In Satkhira , similarly, work is provided by Government for all who need it. The distress here is not severe as yet , though it is feared some suffering is in store for the people . A relief committee has however been formed.

Transport arrangements .

17. Among the papers printed as appendix C will be found a note summarising and reviewing the state and prospects of the Government transport arrangements up to the end of March . The general result is extremely satisfactory, showing that 380 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874 .

each district will have probably received its entire allotment of grain by the end ofMay-several districts long before that date and we may fairly hope that the whole will thus have been stored before the rains set in . The letter to the Government of India , No. 2257- S.R. dated 10th April , with enclosures , in the same appendix, shows that the despatches for the Rajshahye division are now fast approaching completion .

The Lieutenant-Governor is satisfied , as regards the western districts , that the local transport can easily carry away all the grain that the railway can supply. The manner in which the district officers have answered to the calls made upon them by Government for the organisation of a strong transport sorvice has been worthy of all praise. The minutes by Sir Richard Temple, Nos. 55 and 58 , appendix G,to the 14th narrative, show what has been done to secure reserve carriage in case of any possible break- down ; and the Government can now, the Lieutenant- Governor believes, rest assured that unless some very unforeseen accidents occur , no serious failure in the scheme of relief can happen owing to any insufficiency in the transport service .

Since the last narrative was written, the Secretary of State has advised the Government that contracts have been made for the construction of the ten small steamers referred to in paragraph 23 of the 11th narrative . They are each to carry 20 tons , and tow a barge carrying 20 tons more . They will be shipped in pieces by canal steamers before the end of April, and may be expected to be ready for work here by the beginning of July . These, with the four similar steamers now making in Calcutta, will be useful for distributing grain from district depôts by the inland rivers , or for carrying up any further allotments should the necessity for this arise.

The Durbhunga Railway has been completed , the engine having entored IDurbhunga on the 15th April. This will help very materially in placing the grain allotted to Durbhunga and Mudhoobunnee . This aid was much wanted , for the Alliance Company of contractors have not yet succeeded in bringing up their despatches from Chumpta Ghât to anything like the anticipated figure ; and Nilcomul, the North -West contractor, is also very backward in his arrange- ments . With the help of the railway, however, we can feel certain that all shortcomings will be now made up.

Despatches of Government grain.

18. The despatches of Government grain to the famine districts amounted (see appendix B) during the fortnight under report (ie. , up to Tuesday, 14th April) to 14,19,266 maunds (52,565 tons) , which is a great improvement upon the despatches of the fortnight before (38,705 tons .) TheThe total despatches of Government grain from Calcutta to the distressed districts amount now to 65,73,969 maunds or 243,480 tons, while 150,925 tons had been finally stored to the date of the latest returns . The papers in appendix C show, exactly how the case stands as regards the amount and despatch of the grain yet remaining to be sent to each district .

Local purchases at Patna .

19. The Patna dealers , whose undertaking to deliver 42,000 maunds a week of mixed grain for Tirhoot was noticed in grain paragraph 18 of the 13th narrative, are working out their contract very satisfactorily . There was a little shortcoming at first, caused partly by the difficulty they had in getting railway wagons , and partly by the want of bags of the size required ; but all theso difficulties have been overcome , and the grain they give , and the bags in which it is packed , are reported to be exceedingly good.

Relief works. 20. The fortnightly return of persons employed on relief works under officers of the Public Works Department will be found as usual at enclosure No. 10. The following table , SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22, 1874. 381

however, shows more completely the number of ' laborers on Government and Court of Ward relief works by the latest returns :-

From the above it would seem that the estimates of distress at the worst season formed some weeks ago by Sir Richard "Templo and the local officers will be realised perhaps more than realised in the Patna division. On the other hand, the distress in the Rajshahye division is as yet somewhat less, and in the Bhagulpore division considerably less than the estimate. Now that the spring harvest is over, the numbers may be expected to increase everywhere. The work of breaking up the great gangs upon the north Tirhoot roads and diverting them to village works has been going on. The Additional Commissioner in Tirhoot has been authorised to make saltpetre manufacture a relief work , if he cando so at reasonable rates, taking the necessary precautions for the pro- tection of the salt revenue by buying in the salt or otherwise . Mr. Metcalfe was sanguine that he could employ great numbers in this way. In Sarun the cowrie system, under which each laborer is paid a certain number of cowries for each basket - full of earth carried, is reported to have answered well on the Hutwa Raj works , the outturn of work having proved on measurement to be all round not less than half the amount which able-bodied laborers at contract rates would be expected to show in ordinary seasons. At the same time care is takon that the weakest and youngest on the works can earn a livelihood. On the Sarun district works the plan has not been tried generally, from a fear lest the condition of payment-by -results should deter those really in need from seeking employment frcely In Chumparun it has been introduced more extensively for able-bodied laborers , separate invalid gangs being arranged for those unfit for task -work . In most districts an attempt is being made to exact a moderate amount of real labor from those who are able to give it. In Bogra, there has been a considerable influx of laborers on the roads, and the system in force seems to have been unduly lax . The Relief Commissioner has had his attention drawn to the matter.

21. On the Soane Canal Works the average number of laborers was 33,933 during the fortnight, as against 31,282 in that Irrigation Department relief works . preceding. But as the returns of three of the Dehree sub - divisions have not been received , the figures are incomplete . Laborers are said to be increasing rapidly in the Arrah division. The Gunduk embank- ments gave employment to 29,299 persons on the average, but the returns for tho Upper Gunduk works were incomplete. The work is mostly task-work , but weakly people presenting themselves are paid by daily wages , or on a liberal cowrie- system .

22. The number of laborers on the Northern Bengal Railway has not as yet much increased , but it is said that more are Northern Bengal Railway .

gradually coming in. On the railway, and the feeder roads, there were 12,475 on an average last fortnight . Arrangements are being made for sending large gangs from Bogra. The earth -work done is now equal to a bank 26 miles long, and 4 foet high . 1,80,000 bricks have been burnt ; 50,000 are now in kilns ; and 17,24,000 have been moulded .

The following extracts from the Tirhoot report will show how matters are now being managed in Durbhunga and Mudhoobunnee :-

The sub -divisional officer of Durbhunga thus reports : " I have alrcady explained the machinery of charitable relief as it existed when first set in action . I have now to refer to an extension of the system,by which, while retaining our former organisation , we are enabled to render the administration of relief more searching and certain . It consists in having prepared through the jeyt ryot and putwaree of each village a list of all those who are in want ofrelief in the village, and according to this list the group store keeper dispensesdispenses weekly to each village in the group the quantityquantity of grain required for the week's consumption.option. The distribution is made in the village , by the village headmen and the putwaree . Among the other duties of the inspector will be that of seeing that in this respect the village headmen are upto their work . This sub -division has been divided into 12 circles. The Banhar and Warisnugur circles being outside the area where distress was most pressing, were not taken in hand till now . Of the other circles , the grouping has been completed in all except Lehera , Gungdak , and Hya ghat, where some villages still remain ungrouped. But before this week ends the work will be completed in these . In all of these villages the officers are at work , having the village list of distressed people made out ; and lookingto the fact that as our groups are made up , and inspectors appointed, this work can go.on simultaneously in every group, it ought to be completed within a fortnight at farthest. My returns of those on charitable relief are incomplete, some circle officers having been unable to send in any returns, and others only returns for some groups . From these fragmentary returns I learn that the daily averagaverage on charitable relief is 14,563 . I believe this , however, to be much under the real number ."

TheMadhoobunnee officer writes : " Charitable relief is now everywhere at work on the ticket system . The system of giving out cotton , too, is taking root , particularly under Messrs . Ozanne, Williams , Nicholay, and Baboo Ishrce Pershad . I am establishing , through the relief superintendent at most places , quasi hospitals under the native doctors , for care of those who are, either by starvation or disease , unfitted to go to their own people, or to work. I would have the distribution of cooked food , where it is given, also under the superintendence of native doctors if a European is not present , as natives are slow to enquire into cases in which care and extra attention is required."

In the other sub -divisions , also, careful arrangements are being elaborated to meet any distress that may exist .

In Sarun, the numbers on charitable relief are very small. In the whole Hutwa Raj , only 60 persons are shown as receiving charity at present , and at most 800 to 1,000 persons are expected to need aid in the Hutwa sub -division . In Chumparun, the organisation has , with the aid of planters, been made SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 388

apparently very complete . In the districts south of the Ganges , and in most of Rajshahye division, only beggars and friendless individuals, and in Monghyr some of the very lowest classes, have as yet come in for charitable aid. In Burdwan, upwards of 9,000 persons are shown as attending the food - depôts and relief-houses. The poorer classes in this district have become accustomed to take cooked food readily at the fever food -depôts, and they have no scruples in coming for this form of relief when pinched by high prices as they are at present .

24. But little information is given in the district narratives as yet with regard to the sale of Government grain. Iu Bukhtiarpore ( North Monghyr , 2,000 maunds have Sales of Government grain. been sold to the public . From Purneah the district officer reports: -

"At Dengra and Kusba Amour there is less private trade than in other parts, but the scarcity is beginning to encourage private enterprise here as elsewhere . A cloth merchant of Kissengunge has opened a large store on the banks of the river, and keeps his supply up by small boats . In this neighbourhood I last fortnight authorised the sale of Government rice . Mr. Gouldsbury sold 10 maunds at Ratahat , and Mr. Wyer 16 maunds at Mathour, and 107 maunds 1 ) seers at Ootri at 15 seers per Burmah and 12 seers Bengal The consequen of this was , that on the next hat day , at Ratahat and Mathour , not a single private trader appeared. I consequently reduced the rates to 12 seers and forbade the sale of Government grain at the public hâts . This has restored confidence, and the beparees are now buying as fast as ever from the Purneah bazar from the merchants who import it from Caragolah I have directed the relief officers at Dengra and Kusba Amour to sell at 12 seers and 10 seers at their relief centres on fixed days ; and , after inquiry , to village communities or group of villages ; not more than 100 maunds to be sold at each circle until further orders ."

InDinagepore sales to the public have begun in limited tracts , and the Magistrate is ready to sell more generally as soon as the necessity arises . In Rungpore grain damaged by the accidental burning down of a Government golah was eagerly bought up by the people at fair rates.

25. The subscriptions to the central relief committee, including those from England, amount to Rs . 13,05,373 up to date, oxclusive of the Government subsidy.

26. The subject of advances to ryots is one of fast-growing importance. The extract given above in paragraph from the Durbhunga sub -divisional report shows how the Advances to ryots , plan is being worked in Tirhoot.

In Sarun nearly 35 lakhs of rupees have been advanced to zemindars to be expended in grain or moncy advancos to their ryots . The following extract from Mr. Howe's report on Ramnuggur is interesting, and worthy of special notice in connection with this subject :-

"The questions of the most pressing importance are , first , to provide the ' Assamee ' ( or cultivating) population with sufficient food -grain ; secondly , to provide them with , or to enable them to obtain seed grain. Almost the entire population of the sub -division is agricultural, and the proportion of the cultivating class that comes to our works is small , though the actual numbers are large. The remainder now depend almost entirely on the advances they have received either from their zemindars or from Government , nor have they anything except advances to look forward to until the next rice crop is reaped. The best of them are poor and in debt, and it is from this fact that the question of advances becomes so difficult. On the one hand , unless advances are immediately made on a large scale, the Assamee' population will be reduced to starvation; while, on the other hand, there is the risk that , unless great care is taken in investigating each case, the security will be insufficient. To make advances too readily (except in the comparatively small class of cases coming under Rule F* ) tends to demoralise the people , and renders them reckless in getting still further into debt. The difficulty is to combine sufficient promptness with suffi- cient caution, and to make a searching investigation without thereby losing the right moment for action. Mr. Howe has submitted a scheme which has been sauctioned, and on which he has been acting . The following is an outline of this :-A register ( mouzahwar) is prepared in egister (mouzahwar) is prep each tuppah , in which the amount required approximately for each village is entered . This register is prepared in the first instance by the inspector of the circle , assisted , where possi- ble, by any influential member of the committee resident in the tuppah . It is then carefully tested by the officer in charge of the circle, who can alter ( increase or lessen) the total amount fixed in round numbers . As soon as this has been done, a certain quantity of grain is sent

i.c. , in the case of persons whose caste or family position preclude them from laboring.

384 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874.

to each village, where it is kept in charge of the headmen of the village, from whom due security for its safe custody is taken. The class of cases requiring most immediate relief, e , 'Assamees' coming under Rule F ( which fortunately are comparatively few) , will then be taken up and disposed of summarily. These men can be readily found , as there are but few in each village. The object of sending grain to each village , Mr. Howe explains , is , 'first' to give confidence , for experience shows that the mere presence of grain in a village ( if the object of its being brought is known) has this effect ; secondly, to enable the advances under Rule F to be made at once . The summary inquiry preceding distribution under Rule F will be carried on simultaneously, and , having once decided to whom to give under this rule , there is nothing like immediate action , which of course can only be taken if the grain is ready ; thirdly, because now is the best time for carrying grain throughout the interior , and we should therefore avail ourselves of it . Having provided every village with an amount of grain which approximately will suffice for advances , and having relieved the worst cases under Rule F, a formal register will be prepared and carefully tested by circle inspectors and officers in charge of circles :-

1. Name of mouzah .

2. Amount already distributed either by Rajah of Bettiah , or under Rajah of Ram- nuggur's loan .

3. Number and names of Assamees requiring advances, with amount required by each .

4. Nature of security .

5. Remarks .

When this return has been carefully tested , the zemindar will be called upon either to make the advance or to go security, Government making the tuccavee distribution. If he declines, the best security available will be taken, and the procedure laid down in circular No. 1088 of 25th February will be followed , i.e. , the zemindar will be warned that Govern- ment reserves the right to recover the advance by legislation or otherwise. "

In Monghyr application for advances of this kind are numerous . The system pursued in Purneah is described thus :-

" In villages, when the people are badly off , grain is advanced on orcdit, the village com- munity giving a joint bond for the repayment of the advance This system works capitally, it keeps the people in food , it allows them to spend their money on seed , which is procurable in nearly every hât and is being imported largely from the north , and it enables us to distribute our grain at no cost at a time when carriage is available . Mr. Wyer at the Sudder has worked this system, and found that it succeeds better than any other, the people like it , and it is far better than making them advances in money, except in places (which are, in my opinion , very few) where there is no seed- grain to be had. In most villages the well - to-do ryots have seed-grain which they are ready to advance to their poorer neighbours if they see any prospect of being repaid. An advance of Government grain for food on joint security , or its sale in some cases, prevents the seed -grain from being eaten, keeps the poorer people in their homes , and enables them to cultivate their fields . The brisk trade in seed-grain is agood sign."

In Dinagepore such advances will, it is hoped, be given largely through zemindars. In Rungpore also the applications are many ,many, and upwards of Rs . 90,000 have been advanced for this purpose . The Lieutenant-Governor is again about to call the attention of all officers in distressed districts to the fact that when the rains put a stop to out-door labor, the plan of advancing grain to ryots will be the best means open to us of tiding them over the months that must pass before they reap any crop from their fields . The security of the village headmen , or the collective security of a body of ryots , would generally be sufficient to warrant such advances .

Reserve officers .

27., The Government of India has arranged to provide a reserve of civil officers to take the place of any now employed who may break down during the course of relief opera- tions. When the transport work is over, the Military officers now engaged in superintending that work will also be available for relief.

28. Forms of account for cash and stock transactions have been supplied to the districts where Government grain is stored , and on the 15th April stock was to be taken at all Stock and cash accounts . golahs and store-houses .

By order of the Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal, A. MACKENZIE , Junior Secretary to the Government of Bengal .

READ-

The District Narratives of the Patna Division for the fortnight ending on the 4th April 1874.

1. Patna. Prices have fallen in the Patna district, and the yield of the spring crops has beenmuch larger than was expected . The Lieutenant-Governor is glad to know that the suggestions, made by a committee of which Mr. Mangles was a member , for relieving the block of traffic at the Patna city station are being carried out. The Lieutenant - Governor is much concerned to hear that the coarse up- country grains in the Patna store -houses are being injured by weevils ; he approves of their being sent across the Ganges for immediate use in North Behar . In other districts where there has been a demand for grain, the coarser grains have, under the orders of Government, been sold ; and in the Bhagulpore division the grain which was getting spoilt has been sold at a reduced rate. The Lieutenant -Governor will now cause the issue of separate orders directing that the coarse grains in store in any distressed districts be examined , and sold off at once if they are getting spoiled. It will be necessary for the Tirhoot officers to watch carefully the storage and keeping of the northern grains now being delivered at Futwah Ghat .

2. Gya. From the Gya district, also, it is reported that the yield of the spring crop is very much better than had been anticipated . The Magistrate- Collector concurs in the view, which he believes the people of the district to hold , that Gya will not be afflicted by " any- thing like famine" if the autumn crops are good. So long as there is no general distress, and so long as the invalid gangs suffice to provide for the weaker laborers , the Lieutenant-Governor approves of Mr. Palmer's adherence to the payment-by -results system . But the progress of the works must be closely watched, so that no weakly may be turned off, or left with insuffi- cient for their maintenance. As yet it will not be possible to send further grain - supplies to Gya, while the needs of North Tirhoot are so very urgent ; 196 persons appear to be daily in receipt of charitable relief, and the arrangements for providing this relief appear to be suffi- cient for present needs . The Lieutenant -Governor is glad to learn that the people of Gya have contributedated liberally ( subscribing Rs . 18,254) towards the district relief fund .

3. Shahabad. The account of supplies of crops and of prices is favorable . It would be convenient that the Magistrate- Collector of Gya and Shahabad should, as do all other Magis- trates, note the daily average of work-people for the fortnight under Section B, instead of referring to a return which is to be sent some days afterto another department of Govern. ment; the Narratives would then be complete in themselves . The Lieutenant- Governor can hardly think that a rich open district like Shahabad cannot produce enough carts to carry promptly the small quantity of grain allotted to Shahabad, as well as to lift the Sarun supply from the railway station to the river . All other districts have, by offering fairly liberal rates of hire, educed very ample means of transport, and the Lieutenant- Governor anticipates that Mr. Alexander will, if any necessity occurs , be equally successful . Charitable relief is , it seems, being given daily to 239 persons . The applicants are only professional beggars and persons who suffer from physical infirmities .

4. Tirhoot .- Private supplies of grain are said to be insufficient in parts of the north- western sub -divisions , and prices are very high , notwithstanding that Government stores have been opened largely for sales to the public . In Mudhoobunnee the effect of opening the Government stores appears to have been satisfactory ; and the Lieutenant- Governor would wish in future Narratives to have more complete information regarding the conduct and effect of sales to the public . Arrangements will be made to send up to Durbhunga and Mudhoo- bunnee the required quantity of copper coin as soon as possible. The condition of the people in Seetamurhee appears to be tolerably good ; and it is very satisfactory to receive such assur- ances as Mr. Macdonnell gives of the improvement in the condition of the people of Buhera . With regardto Mr. Magrath's remarks ( paragraph 12 of the Narrative) , the Lieutenant- Governor would observe that a sub - divisional officer, if he find more assistance absolutely necessary, must at once represent such needs, and must not content himself with vague references in his fortnightly Narrative . Mr. Magrath is in frequent personal communication with the Additional Commissioner , and he must report at once if further superintendence is required.

5. The Lieutenant -Governor sees the difficulty which prevents the Saraisur tobacco- growers from disposing of their produce, and he will await anxiously any practicable recom- mendations the Commissioner may make upon the subject . He would hope that the transport department might be able to help dealers with backward empty carts or wagons on the Durblunga railway, if only purchasers will come forward, and efficient arrangements are made to prevent delay in putting the tobacco on vehicles . At present, Sir Richard Temple would not entertain a proposal for Government to buy the tobacco, though he would quite approve of advances being made through zemindars on its security .

6. It is satisfactory that Mr. Worsley should be able to report that the condition of people in the head - quarter sub - division is as yet good . Of the deaths reported in paragraph 16, as having occurred in the Mudhoobunnce, sub -division, it would seem that perhaps five may, have been really due to privation . No famine -deaths are reported from other sub- divisions .

386 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874 .

7. The figures given for relief laborers would seem to be wrongly copied; and they differ , moreover , from the numbers telegraphed from the sub -division on about the same date that the Narrative was written. Mr. Magrath telegraphed on the 6th April 250,000 people on the Mudhoobunnee works, whereas the present NarrativeNam gives 192,000 . Possibly, the latter figures may be the daily average for the fortnight.

8. The amount of grain stored in Durbhunga is still very small, compared to the allot- ment and the requirements of this great sub -division. Next Narrative will, it is hoped , show that the Durbhunga railway has begun to pour grain into the sub -division .

9. The Lieutenant- Governor does not fully understand Mr. Magrath's remarks at para- graph 23, and he begs that the question of the best way of making advances to ryots may be brought up before him when he reaches Durbhunga this week . He wishes advances to be given to substantial ryots who may be in need , but he desires that such advances may be in grain rather than in money.

10. On the whole , the Lieutenant-Governor is satisfied with the progress made in get- ting the relief organisation thoroughly to work . In regard to the plan, explained at para- graph 30, of paying salarisalaries to the assistants of planters who may efficiently supervise extensive relief operations, separate orders have been issued on a reference made by the Commissioner . Meanwhile, the arrangement described at paragraph 30 may stand until the Commissioner reports it for sanction with his recommendation .

11. Sarun . The bazars seem to be on the whole well supplied, and at only one mart out of thirty is Indian- corn quoted at a dearer rate than 14 seers per rupee . Mr. Drummond is disposed ( paragraph 14) to take a less hopeful view of the spring crop yield than he dil before, and it is clear that the hail - storm of the middle of March did much destruction over a considerable area. The condition of the people, however, in the parts where failure of crops was greatest has not grown worse during the fortnight, though the numbers coming upon the relief works have risen during the fortnight from 90,000 to 135,000 . The Lientenant- Governor hopes that misunderstanding such as is alluded to at paragraph 29 of the Narrative will not recur; if the Wards' estate where relief works are required cannot afford the outlay, the works must be continued from Government funds , and people must be on no account turned away. Any question as to the source from which the outlay is to be met can be subsequently discussed and settled .

12. The question raised at paragraph 33 of the Narrative , as to Government taking over certain extra grain ( 28,000 maunds) , ordered for miscellaneous Wards ' estates in Sarun , can be settled when the Commissioner's recommend stion shall be received . Meanwhile, the grau can be received , transported , and stored as a part of the Government allotment for the district, and the Calcutta grain officers will be directed,cted, pending further orders, to reckon this quantity (28,000 maunds) as receipts towards the Sarun allotment .

13. The Lieutenant -Governor notices with satisfaction that the Magistrate - Collector of Sarun continues to give large advances to zemindars for the maintenance of their ryots . The Lieutenant-Governor would wish that these advances should for the future be made, as far as possible , in grain, at the rate of Rs . 2-8 a maund for Burmah cargo rice, and Rs . 3-4 a maund for the better kinds of clean rice .

14. Seeing that the system of relief works has shielded the district so far from general distress , the Lieutenant-Governor, will not press the Magistrate- Collector to make more ex- tended or elaborate arrangements for charitable relief, beyond what is described in his paragraphs 36-38 .

15. Chumparun -The Chumparun Narrative is, the Lieutenant- Governor is glad to find, very satisfactory. The people , whether on the works or in their villages , are getting into better condition ; few cases of emaciation are seen, and no cases of starvation are heard of. Supplies of grain are, with help of the Government stores which have been opened in the worst tracts , sufficient , though clean rice is nowhere selling cheaper than 11 seers the rupee. The Lieutenant-Governor quite approves of the action of Mr. Oldham and some of the other relief officers, in exacting light task - work from the work - people who have not recovered their strength and condition .

The quantity of grain finally stored in the district is now 500,000 maunds , and should suffice for the work - people , and for advances to ryots . The Lieutenant- Governor is very anxious that this business of making advances to ryots shouldbe pressed on systematically and actively ; and he has been much interested in reading Mr. Howe's account of the system under which he makes his advances . Seeing how very badly off the ryots in Ramnuggur are said to be , and how very doubtful ( the areas given at page 4 as the total spring and cheena breadths in a large tract are almost incredibly small) the prospect of the millet crops is , the grain advances to ryots cannotbe begun too early . Those who happily have grain of their own will not take the Government grain when they know they have to repay it . If the difficulty about material security for advances be very great, the relief officer must be content with the security of the village headmen, or the collective security of a body of ryots .

No. B, dated Bankipore, the 5th April 1874 .

From-A. C. MANGLES , ESQ., Collector of Patna, To-The Offg . Secretary to the Government of Bengal , Statistical Department .

I have the honor to submit the following narrative for the fortnight ending Saturday , the 4th instant .

A.- STATE OF THE COUNTRY.

2. The bazaars at the head - quarters and the interior of the district are still well supplied with grain of all descriptions , and I have not heard of there being any deficiency anywhere.

3. I have during the fortnight been busily engaged in endeavouring to clear the blook at the Patna city and ghat stations , and I am glad to say that I have to a certain extent succeeded in doing so , inasmuch as the company have been able to unload all their wagons, and none are now standing under load . To do this, however, I have been obliged, besides visiting the stations myself, to depute Mr. Assistant Magistrate Allen to the Patna city station, and one of my deputy magistrates to the ghat station, to look after the railway clerks, and at the same time to see that the mahajuns come to take delivery of their goods . This can hardly be said to be the legitimate work of district officers ; but still as I am satisfied that unless there is proper European supervision a block would again occur, I am still render- ing the assistance to the company, in the hope that it will soon take this responsibility upon itself, and appoint officers to settle all disputes arising between the clerks and the mahajuns regarding the charge of demurrage and the giving and taking delivery of goods . 4. The following were the prices of grain obtaining during the fortnight :-

5. From the above it , will be seen that the prices of all sorts of grain, not excepting rice, have fallen in the principal marts ; and in the mofussil also, owing to the harvesting of the rubbee crops , there has been a slight tendency to cheaper rates, and this even in those parts of the district where we expected to have the greatest distress, the rice and bhadoi crops having been almost failures .

6. We had no rain during the fortnight, and it was not required, as what we wanted was dry weather to allow of the cold- weather cropsbeing cut and harvested. This has now 388 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874 .

nearly been completed, and the outturn is better than was expected . On this subject the Deputy Collector of Behar writes : " There has been a full 16-anna crop over the land that had been sown with rubbee . Taking the average of the yield of the former years, this year's produce is by no means less than three- fourths . " In the Barrh sub - division I should reckon the crop as a 14-anna one, and in the Sudder and Dinapore sub -division at not less than 12 annas . During the fortnight I deputed one of my deputy collectors , Syed Ameer Hossain , to visit the south and south - west portions of the district, they being the parts concerning which I had the greatest anxiety , and I was glad to learn from him that nowhere had there been less than an 8-anna crop, whilst in some parts there had been full 16 annas .

7. No case of misery or starvation was brought to light during the fortnight ; and though the high prices are to a certain extent felt by the lower classes, they have, during the late harvest, been able to collect a certain amount of grain which will assist inin keeping them till the next bhadoi crop comes in . There is an abundance of grain in this district, so that all we want is to provide labor, of which there is plenty on our roads for those seeking it .

8. No case of grain- robbery was reported during the fortnight, and the 8 cases of theft were all of a petty nature .

9. The statement of crimes , prescribed by the Government circular of 20th December last, not having yet been received from the District Superintendent, cannot be submitted with this report, but it will be forwarded as soon as possible.

10. 124 emigrants for British Burmah were registered during the fortnight . Of these 75 have already been despatched to Calcutta, and the remaining 49 will be sent immediately . Of the 124 , 56 were residents of this district , 24 of Gya,Gya, 14 of Sarun, 10 of Tirhoot , 1 of Immediately Chumparun, and 9 came from the North - Western Provinces .

B. RELIEF WORKS .

11. The daily number of laborers on our relief works and local roads is fast increasing; and now that the harvesting of spring crops has been completed , I expect it will continue to do so. By the latest returns received from the Executive Engineer , which bring us up to the 28th of March, there were 10,015 laborers employed on the different works throughout the district , or some 1,000 in excess of the number reported in my last fortnightly.

12. In my original scheme for relief works , submitted to Government through the Com- missioner in December last, I had, in addition to the works on the roads , estimated for Rs. 32,000 to be expended on the excavation of tanks where found necessary; and in my last fortnightly I informed that I had selected the sites for six such tanks . As the work in the fields is now daily becoming shorter, I have applied to the Commissioner for sanction to com- mence on some of these tanks, and for this purpose have asked that Rs . 10,000 out of Rs. 32,000 estimated may be placed at my disposal.

18. During the fortnight we received Government sanction to the proposed work of reclaiming a large swamp at the back of the Patna city, which work will be taken in hand at once; and as it is to cost some Rs . 50,000 should afford labor to all those seeking it in the city and its surrounding villages for some months to come, or at any rate till the rains , when they will be able to again find employment in the fields.

C. TRANSPORT OF GRAIN .

14. The subjoined figures will show the quantity of grain imported into the district during the fortnight ending the 28th ultimo :-

Rice.

Janera.

Other grains .

Wheat, oats , and barley

Mds . 2,28,172

Mds . 62,172

550 By rail By river

TOTAL

Mds. 64,357 100 3,610

Mds . 1,81,016 1,540

2,29,092

65,782

64,457

1,82,556

Or a grand total of 5,41,817 maunds, exclusive of wheat, was received at the Futwah branch line for Government , but inclusive of the Government grain received at Barrh and Mokameh . The figures showing the actual quantity of such Government grain have not been obtained ; but it is roughly estimated to have been about 1,50,000 maunds , leaving the balance of 3,91,817 as private importations.

15. During the week ending the 28th ultimo, the private importations at the Patna ghât station have again fallen below those at the Patna city station, as shown by the following figures:-

Patna ghat Patna city

Mds .

66,990 86,252

And I am satisfied that the increase of receipts at the Patna ghat , as shown in my previous narrative, was only owing to the Railway Company having compelled consigueos to consign their goods to the ghat during the block , andto case the city station .

16. Our means of transport continue sufficient to meet all requirements ; and now that large batches of bullocks and carts are continually coming from the North- Western Provinces , SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 389

I hope that I shall not again be compelled to have recourse to our local means of transport in the conveyance of treasure to other districts, and shall be able to leave it entirely for the use of privatetraders.

17. In my last fortnightly narrative I informed that I had made arrangements for the supply of 85,000 maunds of fodder for Tirhoot , and I have now made other arrangements for another 15,000 maunds , thus completing the lakh which I was called upon to supply. Behar has already commenced sending in its share , consisting of 25,000 maunds to Chumpta , and my supplies for Bunker Ghat will begin coming in from to - morrow . I propose starting it for the purpose of weighment , & c . , in the old jail buildings at Deegah , which are on the banks of the river, and from whence therefore there will be no difficulty in sending it on to its final destination.

D.- STORAGE OF GOVERNMENT GRAIN .

18. No further supplies of grain have been received in this district, and no alterations have been made in the distribution of that which had been previously stored . All the golahs in the Sudder sub -division were visited during the fortnight by the Deputy Collector, Syed Ameer Hossain, who has been appointed district grain officer. He reports favorably regarding them; and states that , so far , the grain stored has not been damaged by climate or insects ; but I am sorry to say we have not been so fortunate in the Barrh and the Behar sub -divisions , from whence the sub - divisional officers report that all the coarse grains have been attacked by weavils and other insects , and are fast being destroyed . I have obtained the Commissioner's sanction to sending the Barrh stores across the river to Tirhoot for immediate use , and if the same cannot be done with the grain now in Behar , I will direct the Deputy Collector to sell it for what it will fetch . The Dinapore sub - divisional officer also reports that his grain has , to some extent , been damaged ; and as it is not likely that we shall ever require any of it, I intend asking the Commissioner's sanction to be allowed to dispose of all the up - country grain assigned to this district .

E.-ADVANCES TO PRIVATE PARTIES .

19. No advances for purchase of grain were made during the fortnight . I have already expended the sum allotted me for the purpose ; and so long as our markets continue as well stocked as they are at present , I do not consider that any further advances are necessary , espe- cially as those who have taken them and have purchased grain find considerable difficulty in disposing of it , as the prices in the local markets are quite as low as they could afford to sell at . 20. The sum of Rs. 9,500 was advanced during the fortnight to different zemindars in the Behar sub -division for agricultural improvements . Some other applications were received , but rejected , as from inquiry it was elicited that the money was not intended to be spent on the works entered in the petitions , but either to cover low expenses or to be used in paying debts, &c .

F.-CHARITABLE RELIEF .

21. Nothing was done under this head during the fortnight, there having been no neces- sity for it . Some of the native gentlemen, both in the city and in the interior of the district, have opened alms -houses , which at present meet all requirements .

I have the honor to submit my fortnightly report on relief and scarcity in Gya district for the fortnight ending Saturday, 4th April .

A. STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

2. The bazars continue to be sufficiently supplied with food-grains of all sorte . The annexed table will show the reported price - currents during the past fortnight . It will be observed that food-grains are generally somewhat cheaper than they were a fortnight ago . This is the result of the reaping of the spring harvest, some of which produce has already come into the market .

3. The rates as here detailed may be taken as being the highest rates that obtain, and there is no doubt that agriculturists and field laborers obtain their supplies very much below the rates here stated :-

4. There has been no rainfall within the district during the past fortnight. The weather has been everything that could be desired for gathering in the harvest . The sufficient rain in February brought new life to the rubbee crops , which resulted in the ears of corn being well filled and the crops heavy. From every part of my district I am assured that the outturn has realized the most sanguine anticipations . Since the heavy rain in February we have had occasional showers up to within the last fortnight , during which bright weather and a whole- some westerly wind have prevailed.

5. I dare say that a more favorable weather for the harvest could not have been. For the past month at least I have neither seen nor heard of caterpillars , blight , or such like crop-destroyers.

6. I am happy to be able still to pronounce the condition of the people to be generally good.

7. It is extraordinary , with all the preparations around and the unusual action of the Government in importing food, to notice the apathetic character of the people . They at any rate have no gloomy anticipations , nor do the higher classes of natives anticipate anything like a famine. In this view I concûr. I think that after the rubbee crops are threshed and stored, we must be prepared to find labor for the laboring and other classes , as distinct from agriculturists .

8. That the time has not yet arrived is clear from the indifference with which laborers come to our works , and the terms they wish to enforce before working at them .

9. No cases of misery or starvation have happily yet been heard of. Measures are being taken by which the state of each tract is ascertained, and where any real distress is apparent immediate relief has hitherto been afforded .

10. Grain thefts and robberies are not materially increasing, but offences against pro- perty generally, as previously noticed, have been steadily increasing for several months past .

11. The annexed comparative statements will exemplify at a glance what I have just stated .

B. RELIEF WORKS .

12. The statement to be submitted two days hence to the Public Works Department of the Bengal Secretariat will , at a glance , give all detailed information of numbers of work -people employed. This information I have not by me at present in a complete form.

13. The marking out of the Puraya road has not yet been reported completed . I have begged the Executive Engineer to hasten it as much as possible, as I am anxious to commence work there by the 10th of this month . During the fortnight the Warisligunge road has been started in the Nowada Sub -division, an invalid gang having at the outset been employed.

14. There appears to be some hesitation with laborers to do work on the payment -by- result system. This I attribute to one or two cases in which dufladars on invalid gaugs have freely dealt out daily payments without in the least degree exercising themselves in seeing that a fair amount of labor was given in return .

15. I have very great difficulty in obtaining competent duffadars, and also in getting them promptly looked after . Food in some cases is obtainable at a greater distance than I should wish ; but many laborers bring their food with them; and as long as the laborers them- selves are content with the existing arrangements, it is impolitic to make fresh ones , which , though for their benefit , would not be so construed, and might serve as a ground for discontent . The Magistrate of Jehanabad asserts that the able -bodied persons coming for work object to the payment-by-result system, inasmuch as they distrust the duffadars and Government.

16. If the system as indicated in my last report is tollowed and the work measured up every other day, and these measuremonts be again tested by a superior officer every 7 or 15 days, it is simply impossible that cause for distrust should exist, and I am quite satisfied that, if the sub -divisional and other officer superintending the work will personally take a little trouble to set the work going , this form of relief is by far the best adapted for able -bodied men seeking employment . These men should not be permitted to overcrowd the invalid gangs, the cases of the two sets of men being altogether different .

20. There is at present a diminution in the supply of carts . This is attributed, and rightly so I think, to two causes .

1st. The very high rates and quasi - impressment of carts entering Patna for service in carriage of grain to the north of the Ganges .

2ndly. To the large number of carts at present secured by the Opium Department for conveying opium jars to the Patna godown . The opium season in this district has been abumper one. I trust that the latter cause will cease to exist before I am required to transport from Patna my newly allotted supply of grain .

F.- CHARITABLE RELIEF.

26. Relief by distribution of cooked food has been afforded in the Sudder, Aurungabad and Nowada, sub - divisions .

27. The persons thus relieved are lepers and persons incapable of earning a livelihood for themselves , and who , as far as can be ascertained by summary inquiry, have no relatives capable of supporting them. In the Sudder a daily average of 147 persons have thus been fed. The daily average in Aurungabad is 35 persons , and in Nowada 14 persons .

28. The giving of raw cotton to be converted into thread has also been had recourse to as amethod of relief in Aurungabad and Sudder station. In the former locality seven females are thus assisted and in the latter 227 .

N. B. It has been settled by Sir Richard Temple that no spocial relief circles are required in this district . That eight special officers will be appointed to thoroughly examine any tracts likely to be distressed, and to visit gonorally the villages in the mofussil with a view to employment being found or relief administered.

29. It may not be out of place here to mention that for famine relief purposes a sum of Rs. 18,254-13 have already been collected within the district , and that this amount will still further be supplemented . The contributions are very creditable to the contributors .

No. 28F. , dated Arrah, the 7th April 1874.

From- H . W. ALEXANDEE , ESQ . , Collector of Shahabad ,

To-The Officiating Secretary to the Government of Bengal , Statistical Department .

Ihave the honor to submit my 9th narrative for the fortnight ending the 4th April .

A - STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

The supplies in the local markets in the Asrah , Sasseram , and Buxar sub -divisions have not in the aggregate fallen off in quantity. Abundance or scarcity of supplies in the bazars , In Bhubhoon matters in this respect are reported to be

normal. Large quantities of grain are still being imported into the district by rail, and the new rubbee is coming into the market .

2. In appendix A is given the kind and prices of grain selling at the chief marts in Kinds and prices of grain selling at the district . It will be noticed that , on the whole, the prices one or more specified principal marts. are slightly more favorable than they were last fortnight . 3. No rain has fallen. The rubbee has been generally harvested , and I think may be

regarded as a much better crop than was at first anticipated. In the Arrah and Buxar sub - divisions, excluding the Deearah lands , the crop may , I think , be estimated as a fair average one ; similarly so in the Sasseram sub -division.

Rainfall if any , state of corps , con- dition of the people, actual facts as to any known cases of misery and star vation, grain - thefts and robberies, con- dition of any particular tracts .

In Bhubhooa sub -division Mr. Eyre estimates it as a 12-anna or crop, while the Deputy Collector estimates it as less . I am inclined to accept the former's as the more accurate calculation .

In regard to the condition of the people I have nothing new to add to my last report. In large towns, such as Arrah , Buxar, Chousa , Sasseram, Nasrigunge, Akherpore , Bhubhooa , Chynepore, where professional beggars congregate, and where many helpless indigent people belonging to the lower class are living, gratuitous relief and in-door subsidised relief has SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 395

become now necessary, and in part has been commenced in one or two of the above- named places . In rural tracts no such necessity has at present arisen.

No cases of actual misery and starvation have as yet been brought to light . There has been no remarkable increase in the number of grain- thefts and robberies . Most of the cases reported have been petty thefts of crops , which are of yearly occurrence .

In the Sasseram sub- division , one theft occurred in a building , in which case 6 maunds 20 seers of wheat were stolen, and in another case 4 maunds 9 seers of rice were taken.

The comparative statement of crimes (Appendix B) shows an increase by 88 over the cases in 1873 , and by 121 over the cases in 1872.

Ihave nothing more to add in regard to the condition of any particular tracts ; if any material change does take place, it will, I think, show itself in June .

B.- RELIEF WORKS .

Full details in regard to all such works will be furnished in the statement called for in circular No. 5718, dated the 3rd December last, which is due on the 8th instant .

In the Arrah sub- division, work willbe started immediately on the road from Gurahnee to Bihta vid Sikrita .

In the Buxar sub -division , the village road from Chousa to Jumooaon has been completed, and the continuation of it from Jumooaon to Dhunsahi has been commenced .

In the Sasseram sub -division, work is being carried on upon the roads from Chenari to Mullipore, and from Akherpore to Juddoonathpore . There was a considerable falling -off in the number of laborers at the relief works during the cutting of the rubbee crops . Now that the harvest has been gathered , the numbers resorting to the works are daily increasing, and will continue to do so, I am inclined to think , up to the end of this month .

C.-TRANSPORT OF FOOD .

There has been no falling - off in the importation by rail of grain by private traders in the Arrah and Buxar sub - divisions. The quantity so imported will be submitted in a separate return(which will follow) , directly I receive detailed figures from the Traffic Department , East IndianRailway.

By river no importations are reported .

From other districts

The means of transport are at present sufficient for all requirements . The Collector of Sarun is anxious now to employ only carts of this district for conveying his grain from the Arrah railway station to the river ghat ; in other words , something more than 600 carts.

Inow expect that further consignments of grain will be sent to me very shortly for this district, and I shall certainly not be able to convey it away if the Sarun grain is to absorb so much of the means of transport belonging to this district . One result has already shown itself, and that is, that I cannot convey grain at the same rate as I did when storing grain in January and February owing to the demand for carts which has thus arisen .

D.- STORAGE OF GOVERNMENT GRAINAT RELIEF WORKS ,

In the Arrah sub -division, 117 maunds 7 seers of rice was received during the fortnight and despatched and stored at once .

In the Buxar, Sasseram, and Bhubhooa sub -divisions , no grain has been received or stored during the period uuder report .

E.-ADVANCES TO PRIVATE PARTIES AND THEIR RESULTS .

In the Arrah sub -division, an advance of Rs. 2,000 has been made to Nowrun Singh of Chandi for land improvements, and Rs . 300 to Jugdeo Singh of Aeer for the purchase of grain. No other advances of any kind have been made.

F.-CHARITABLE RELIEF .

Ihave nothing further to add to my last report in regard to headings Nos . 1 , 2, 3 , 4 , 5 of circular No. 1251 S.-R. , dated 5th March .

For the Arrah sub- division, three supervising relief officers have been appointed on Rs . 40 a month, whose chief work at present will be to make a village - to -village enquiry in order to ascertain what persons are fit subjects for gratuitous relief, or subsidised in- door relief, or who can be employed on light out- door labor, such as rope-making and cotton - spinning. Poor- houses will be at once opened at Gurhanee and Arrah , at which it is supposed that the chief recipients of charity will be professional beggars , who , from physical infirmities , are incupable of performing any work .

Rope-making and cotton -spinning will be provided also for those who are able to do such light work; 36 persons are now receiving subsidised in- door relief, and 41 persons gratuitous relief daily at Arrah .

In the Buxar sub - division , 119 persons in all, including men , women, and children, have received gratuitous relief daily at the following places :-Buxar, Doomraon, Nawanuggur, Choura Khyree. Two supervising relief officers on Rs . 40 a month have been entertainedfor this sub -division.

396 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874 .

In regard to the Sasseram and Bhubhoos sub-divisions , Mr. Eyre reports-" no charitable relief has yet been commonceed in Sasseram beyond the subsidised in -door relief of rope-making specified in my last narrative. The weekly returns of this relief are not to hand, and I cannot therefore supply them . Gratuitous relief has been commenced in Bhubhooa. I visited that place on the 31st ultimo, and personally supervised the relief. I could only find 41 persons fit recipients of relief, and some of these were fitted for light work . I left full instructions, and have since sent registers - tickets , and iterated the instructions already given . I am afraid this relief is being misapplied . The day after I left, the number of recipients is entered as 81, 40 was the number of the previous day. I will be at Bhubboos on the 8th , and will specially report on this matter. Details regarding sex have been called for, and will be submitted in the report .

From-C . F. WORSLEY , Esq. , Officiating Collector of Tirhoot, To-The Officiating Secretary to the Government of Bengal, Statistical Dept.

Ihave the honor to submit my narrative of scarcity and relief in the Tirhoot district for the fortnight ending Saturday, 4th April 1874.

A. STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

2. In Sectamurhee sub - division the supply of grain is sufficient , except in Cherout and

Jalley, where the people are dependent on Government supplies . 8. In Durohunga sub -division , the supply in the Durbhunga and Rowserah bazars " still continues ample ," but in the interior all articles of food are dear and scarce. In Hattee sub- division, it has been found necessary to supplement private trade by Government sales .

398 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

4. In Mudhoobunnee sub -division the sale of Government grain at Mudhoobunnee has caused much grain of all kinds to be brought to market, and has also had the effect of lowering prices generally . The bunyas , however , are stated to have recouped themselves to a certain extent by diminishing the number of local pice given in exchange for rupee coins , and the sub -divisional officer considers that it would be a good opportunity to introduce the standard pice coins . I would recommend that two lakhs of pice be forwarded if possible vid Barrh and Chumpta Ghût for circulation in Durbhunga and Moodhubunnee sub - division.

5. In Hajeepore, Tajpore, and Sudder sub -divisions the bazars have been sufficiently supplied.

6. The subjoined statement shows the kinds and prices of grain selling at some of the principal marts:-

7. In some of the western parts of Seetamurhee sub -division the majority of the ryots are reported to have sufficient grain for their own wants. Elsewhere no additional information has been obtained regarding stocks , though the hoards of grain invariably disclosed by outbreaks of 'fires indicate the existence of hidden stores . I have directed the district superintendent to depute clever officers to specially investigate these cases, which have of late been very frequent.

veryfre 8. There has been no fall of rain in any part of the district . 9. In Seetamurhee sub -division the cheena and moong crops are suffering from the drought , and the same may be said of these crops in all parts of the district . In the western part of the Sudder sub - division , where sowings were probably made under as favorable circum- stances as in any portion of the district , these crops are being fast dried upby the scorching west winds that have prevailed during the last fortnight, and when I was in that direction a week ago, the cultivators thought that they could not hold out for more than 10 or 12 days without rain .

10. In Seetamurhee sub - division the condition of the people has improved generally, but isolated cases of distressed women and children are still to be found . For all such cases the sub -divisional officer is specially providing . The condition of the people ( some 50,000 ) who attended the recent large Seetamurhee fair was very fairly good ; and as all came provided with grain for their own consumption and fodder for their cattle, no difficulty was experienced in supplying them with food.

11. In Durbhunga the sub-divisional officer has observed a marked improvement among the people, especially in the direction of Bahera . He writes : " I had myself grouped round Bahera, where I have no doubt the distress was as pronounced as in any other village in the sub-division. These were the villages in which I, in a former report, declared that famine had commenced ; as then , so now. I had all the poor assembled , and were it not that I was assured by the jeyt ryot putwaree and group inspector that no famine -deaths had occurred, and that in the people now before me I saw the starving creatures of a month ago, I scarcely could have credited the change . I visited the village when the putwaree was distributing the daily allowance . There were no complaints whatever, and the improved condition of the recipients proved that the village headınen had not deprived them of the Government charity . Indeed, this system of village relief everywhere I went 1 found working well. Mr. MacDonnell and the sub-divisional officer of IIattee are now directing their attention to the relief of cultivators and small farmers whom it is difficult to bring to our relief works . To these they are making advances in money for seed-grain and in grain for their own support . The principle they have adopted is that of making advances to the applicants by whole villages , the applicants entering into an association or system of frank pledge for repayment, their estimate being based on returns submitted by putwaree showing the quantity of land cultivated by each applicant, and the quantity of seed -grain required being calculated at the rate of 20 seers per beegha . In some instances they have persuaded zemindars to take the seed SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GÁZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 399

advances into their own hands, and one zemindar , Babu Bunsee Dareer , of Ragopore, proprietor of nearly half the Lehra circle, is specially mentioned for the public epirit and humanity which he has displayed in this respect, and in the administration of relief operations on his estates under their directions ."

12. The Mudhoobunnee sub -divisional officer writes : " The time has now come when I must say that distress is general throughout the sub -division, A few favoured tracts, such as the neighbourhood of Ladma and Hurlaki thannahs , are still comparatively fairly well off, but the fact that we have little less than half the population on our hands shows that distress is severe in general . But for the Government roads we could not have hoped to cope with it ; and though, as our organisation becomes more complete, we may hope that village works will relieve us of the feeble part of the population, it is idle to suppose that anything but a vastly increased superintendence , much more largely supplemented than it is at present by European energy , will enable us to bring food to the mouths of four- fifths of the population (whom I expect to have to feed ) , if we have them scattered throughout the country in their own villages." 13. In Hajeepore sub -division , excepting perhaps the extreme northern tract, the condi- tionof the people has not changed for the worse . There is still little demand for employment, owing, as the sub -divisional officer considers , to the high rates of wages paid on the GuuduckGun embankment by the Public Works Department . Local agency at present is quite sufficient to deal with all cases of distress .

14. The sub -divisional officer of Tajpore reports that " the people seem to keep up fairly," but that in the direction of the Tal Bareyla they are becoming pinched , and he looks for a marked deterioration in their condition in the next month or six weeks . The south - east portion of the sub -division also causes him some anxiety. The difficulty of disposing of tobacco produce, on which this sub -division greatly relies for its means of support , is thus noticed by Mr. Wace: " I should not be far out in saying that anxiety in the sub-division centres chiefly now in the question what is to be done with tobacco . There are a few buyers going about, but there is a considerable balance over from last season and a very fair crop of this year to be disposed of. The North - West merchants have , I suppose , taken alarm at the famine, and if theythey werewere here I do, not know how they would transport their purchases . The carts now carrying rice to the north- east would in ordinary years be carrying tobacco up to barter for rice to bring down , or carrying tobacco down to the river. The matter deserves our earliest attention, for we have reckoned much on the wealth of Saraisa to tide it over the coming trial, and its chief source of wealth is tobacco."

Mr. Wace suggests that the tobacco might be conveyed down to the Ganges foom Nagar- basti by rail, or that advances should be given by Government on security of the tobacco. Both suggestions are good under certain provisoes . If purchasers can be found in the Patna district, the conveyance of the tobacco to the bank of the Ganges will be a great boon to the cultivators ; and I would be glad if the Cominissioner would kindly authorise the Collec- tor of Patna to ascertain whether purchasers are likely to be found in his district. With regard to advances, they might certainly be made ; but if the tobacco is to be treated as actual security, it must either be delivered and stored at Poosah, in which case a temporary special establishment must be entertained , or loans might be attempted through zemindars , who could be left to arrange the question of security between themselves and the cultivators . The only other course that occurs to me is for Government to buy up all the tobacco at the ordinary current rates, and to despatch and consign it to agents in the North - West Provinces for sale .

15. In the Sudder - division the condition of the people is good , so far as their outward appearance is concerned, but the demand for employment is increasing daily . I have lately made a tour through the whole of the western portion of the sub - division comprised within the jurisdiction of thannah Paro, and have met with no cases of distress except such as are being relieved gratuitously through the managers of factories . Having previously seen bad accounts of the extreme western tracts , I sent notice of my visit to the inspector of the thannah and desired him to produce before me some of the worst cases which he had reported . On my arrival however I was told that no " real distress" existed, but that professional beggars required relief and work was wanted . On a tank- work adjoining the thannah , which had been opened two days previously, I found about 200 laboreis , all of whom were in very fair condi- tion . Similarly on all the works which I visited (some 10 or 12) I found the people healthy and strong , and I was particularly struck with the good appearance of the children . I think very few of the laborers had become so destitute as to be wholly dependent on relief works for their support , but that they were certainly glad to avail themselves of employment offered to them near their houses . A large proportion of the popula i n in this part consists of gowalas and other agricultural castes , and I have no doubt that the numbers on our relief works will increase veryvery largely during this month, as there will be no work in the fie da to employ the peo-, ple, and they have not sufficient food or means to maintain themselves in idleness for the next tew months . Distress (which term I understand to mean actualbodily suffering and enforced privation of food) did not appear to me to have yet arisen to any extent . The state of things however will require constant watching , and the arrangements now made with the Com- missioner's sanction , and which willbe detailed further on, will be quite sufficient for all pur- poses of'relief.

In the north and north - east of the sub-division the condition of the people, as reported by the police , gives cause for more anxiety. I intend to take an early opportunity of visiting those parts . In the meantime Mr. Deputy Collector Wande - Jones has been deputed to make inquiries , and the relief superintendents are engaged in orgamsing their circles and opening works.

400 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

16. Some cases of death from starvation are reported from the Mudhoobunnee sub- division, but from the accounts given of them it is impossible to say how far they were owing to want of food . The following is Mr. Magrath's description of the cases :-

" Of known cases of starvation I have few to report ; notably two people have died at Mirzapore; one man was found by Mr. Metcalfe and myself,myself, the other, an old woman , by myself some days after. The man was not so attenuated but that other causes than starvation may have led to his death , and had come along with all his people who however decamped when they heard that I was inquiring for them . The old woman was very old , and died within 20 yards of where grain was being distributed The report of the circumstances of death has not reached me, and as the police do not make any inquiry but merely state that so many persons died of starvation in their reports, I do not hope for any additional evidence in the matter ."

From Kutchra 'circle four cases of death were reported in mouzah Dhangah , pergunnah Jorail, the property of the Maharajah of Durbhungah . I at once sent notice to Mr. Nicholay , sent off an officer to the village, and late in the day visited it myself. After a careful inquiry it appeared that not one of the cases reported had occurred within the month, and that the friends of the people who died were not in a starving condition, and that there was reason to suppose the whole story untrue, more specially as the Beneputtee head constable, who re- ported the matter, had not been in the village for two months, and had made no inquiry whatever, taking the statement of the chowkerdar for gospel.

As however there were a certain number of helpless people in the village, Mr. Nicholay made arrangements for their receiving a sufficient supply of rice on the ticket system . I have had only one other report of the sort from that circle , viz . , of an old man in ill health at Damodarpore, and as Mr. Nicholay has 26 tanks, and the ticket system is at work in all but one of his eight circles , I have little doubt that the distress there will be efficiently met . Mr. Williams reports that soon after his arrival in Motipore, seven deaths from starvation were reported in that circle , two of very old women, one at Bijai and another at Thowa (these persons were in receipt of Government relief) ; the third death was that of a mushar , who came to work on the Motipore road from the village of Chapahi . As the Chapahi zemindar (awoman' has been giving relief largely to her people , the reason of his leaving his village is not apparent. A fourth came from a great distance , no one knew whence, for relief. He must have passed by places of relief whatever way he came. The other three died in the villages of Gandanti and Sima, to which Mr. Williams called attention on his first arrival at Motipore, and where relief has been extensively given , though unfortunately too late to save the lives of these people . Had my circle officers been sent to me at the time I joined, as I was pro- mised they should be, I have no hesitation in saying that most of these deaths would have been avoided . In his latter letter Mr. Williams, who has now visited his whole circle , takes a more hopeful view of the general state of things and concludes: " As long as the Mirzapore and Motipore road is in construction , I have no reason to apprehend any heavy distress in the villages in the west and north of my circle."

From the Mudhoobunnce circle Baboo Ishree Pershad reports that of the four cases of starvation reported to him , one was of a man found in good health working on the roads , a second that of a person who on inquiry proved never to have existed, the third case was not traced, and the fourth proved to be that of a man who , after working for one month on the Government road, died of dysentery from which he had long been suffering. He observes that the villages near and about Pandaul are those in the greatest distress , and attributes the poor condition of the Dosadhs to the difficulty they have now in finding anything to steal . Mr. Kisch from Bhakwa, which he has only recently joined , reports that of two cases of starvation reported to him one man died of a disease from which he had been suffering for two years , and the other of old age. He however found severe distress in Barawn, but relieved it at once . Whilst I was with him distress in Dhatwar was brought to his notice, but he took prompt measures for its relief."

"Mr. Azanne from Jhanjarpore reports one death at Meljhain from starvation . This village , although very close to Jhanjarpore , appears to have suffered considerably from distress . Mr. Azanne, however , on his arrival at once relieved those who were in want. Four deaths also occurred at Jhanjarpore ; two of them had been fed for 19 days ; the third man came from a distance, and was very ill when he came; the fourth had been at work on the tank for seven days . He reports the village of Nanour as in great distress , but has only heard of one death there , which was not alleged to have been from want . He also found five children desertedby their parents, and made arrangements for their support ."

17. No cases of starvation are reported from other sub - divisions . 18. The annexed statement shows the number of thefts , &c. , committed during the month of March :-

C.- TRANSPORT OF FOOD .

426,411

20. Of private importations the sub-divisional officer of Tajpore writes : " I can say but little . Zemindars and traders find in the difficulty of procuring carriage a ready and plausible excuse for a natural disinclination to turn southwards instead of northwards for supplies. " The other sub - divisional officers do not notice this subject . As regards the Sudder sub - division I have observed that grain still finds its way into Mozufferpore town in sufficient quantities, and the difficulty, or rather the increased cost, of procuring earriage seems to have produced no worse result than a slight enhancement of prices . At Sahebgunge too , a large mart on the river Gunduck, I found the grain - market well supplied, and the dealers admitted to me that they experienced no difficulty in obtaining boats to import grain either from Patna or Revilgunge (in Sarun) , both which places they have been drawing on for supplies . In short , all that I have seen and learnt confirms me in the opinion that the allot- ment of grain for which we have applied will be quite sufficient. It may perhaps be objected that if private trade is doing so much , there can be no necessity for laying in more Government grain at all ; but to this I would reply (1) that the sub - division has not hitherto depended wholly on imported food for its support, and that it would therefore be hazardous to trust entirely to private dealers when local stocks are exhausted; ( 2 ) that we ought to be able to exercise some control over our prices , which we can only do by becoming grain - holders ; and (3) that it is desirable during the season of cultivation and in the rains to lower prices to at least 12 seers per rupee .

21. Transport arrangements having been now placed under the immediate direction of Colonel MacGregor, it is unnecessary for me to say more on this head than that the companies on the western side of the district are working thoroughly well , and that the Durbhunga sub - divisional officer reports a great improvement on the part of the Southern Alliance Company . Though he declines to commit himself to any distinct statement, he believes that the company will henceforth be able to carry between 31 and 4 lakhs a month .

On the subject of advances Mr. Magrath writes :-" My remarks apply to the case of respectable ryots to whom at present no advances are boing made . I should like something to be done for them at once , as otherwise they will go in with the rank and file of paupers . The working of Sir Richard Temple's loans up to the amount of Rs. 50, through the relief super- intendents would , I am sure, be a great boon . The landholders also apply for loans ; I was granting loans to them till the Additional Commissioner stopped me. I should like permis- sion tobe given to the relief superintendent also to give such advances up to Rs . 50."

25. The sub -divisional officer of Dusbhunga thus reports :" I have already explained the machinery of charitable relief as it existed when first set in action . I have now to refer to an extension of the system , by which , while retaining our former organisation, we are enabled to render the administration of relief more searching and certain. It consists in having prepared through the jeyt ryot- putwarree of each village a list of all these who are in want of relief in the village , and according to this list the group store -keeper dispenses weekly to each village in the group the quantity of grain required for the week's consumption . The distribu- tion is made in the village , by the village headmen and the putwari . Among the other duties of the inspector willbe that of seeing that in this respect the village headmen are up to their work. The sub -division has been divided into 12 circles . The Banhar and Warmsnuggur circles being outside the area where distress was most pressing , were not taken in hand till now . Of the other circles , the grouping has been completed in all except Lehera , Gungdak , and Hya ghat, where some villages still remain ungrouped . But before this week ends the work will be completed in these . In all of these villages the officers are at work , having the village list of distressed people made out, and looking to the fact that as our groups are made up, and inspectors appointed, this work can go on simultaneously in every group , it ought to be com- pleted within a fortnight at farthest. My returns of those on charitable relief are incom- plete, some circle officers having been unable to send in any returns , and others only returns for some groups . From these fragmentary returns, I learn that the daily average on charitable relief is 14,563 . I believe this, however, tobe much under the real number."

26. The Mudhoobunnee officer writes :-" Charitable relief is now everywhere at work on the ticket system . The system of giving out gotton , too, is taking root , particularly under SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 408

Messrs . Ozanne , Williams, Nicholay , and Baboo Ishree Pershad. I am establishing, through the relief superintendent at most pluces quasi hospitals under the native doctors , for care of those who are , either by starvation or disease, unfittedto go to their own people or to work . Iwould have the distribution of cooked food, where it is given, also under the superintendence of native doctors , if a European is not present, as natives are slow to enquire into cases in which care and extra attention is required.

27. The Hajeepore officer reports " I have appointed three inspectors on Rs . 70 per mensem to carefully find out all the really indigent in the 500 north part of the sub - division . I have advanced Rs . 1,200 200 to the gentlemen noted in the margin who have all under- 200 1,200 taken to relieve the really distressed round them at the rate of Rs. 1-8 to Rs. 2 a month . I have directed the inspectors 100 to put themselves directly in communication with these gen- tlemen, who have shown the most earnest desire to co- operate with me, and in whose hands we may safely leave the distri- bution of charitable relief. I have received one return, viz. , from Mr. James Smith of Shah- pore. The others promise returns next week . With this organisation we shall be able to meet all cases of distress as they arise ; at present they are scattered about the place, and I have no apprehension that in any part will there be any thing like universal distress."

28. The Tajpore officer reports :-" It has been arranged that we should start at once a regular system of village supervision. The manager of every factory will receive through his putwaries, and jeyt ryots of the villages in farm to him, reports of the state of the village. For villages not in farm to a factory, which will be picked out on receipt of lists now coming in from factories , there willbe a special organisation , either through sub - committees of which we propose to have four, or paid agency, reporting either to the nearest factory or the nearest sub-committee .

" It is further arranged that for the present every manager should give , in bad cases, gratuitons relief from the grain at his factory whether bought under Government advances or not, and that the price of this should be made good to him out of the relief funds .

"A subscription list has been opened. The donations made and promised up to date amount to only Rs . 676 , and the monthly subscriptions to Rs . 67 ; no factory has yet sub- scribed. Three managers have promised subscriptions, while two have replied that they prefer to dispense charity from factory and private funds on the spot, to contributing to a general fund ."

29. In the Sudder sub- division , gratuitous relief, is administered in the town by a sub -committee as previously reported. The subjoined statement shows the numbers relieved during the past weck

In the interior, gratuitous relief is given in the western part of the sub- division by the managers of the Sahebgunge , Seraiah and Jeypore factories, and in other parts by superin- tendents of relief circles . The officers having only recently joined their appointments, have been fully occupied in arranging their circles , and reports of progress made will be submitted in next Narrative .

30. With the Commissioner's approval , I have arranged to place all the villages in the Paru thannah and some in the head - quarters thannah , amounting together to about 700 under the direct management of planters and their assistants. I found, on making enquiry, that six factories held in lease or owned 695 villages ; and as each manager was willing to take charge of his own villages , and of any others lying within the outermost limits of his lands , and to give the aid of his assistauts for supervision of relief works , and administration of 404.

31. It will be seen that the superior agency consists of 6 managers and 9 assistants . The former give their services gratuitously, but to each of the lutter a remuneration of Rs . 100 per month will be allowed . A local man on Rs . 10 is to be placed over each group of four villages . The rest of the establishment is composed of clerks, golahdars , payadas, and peous , details of which it is unnecessary to mention here . The supervision of these six circles will be my own special duty , and Mr. Gordon will have similar charge of the other circles in the sub-division, riz ., Belsund, Toorkee, Katra , Raj Khand , and the Sudder, which will be worked in the ordinary way by relief superintendents .

32 The main advantages of administering circles through planters are-( 1 ) that we shall always be able to prevent the congregation of people in large numbers ; (2) that the planters' local knowledge and experience will enable them to detect all cases of imposition ; (3) thatthat plantersplanters can, and do succeed in extracting from laborers more real work than we can hope to get by direct management ; (4) thaanagement ; (4) that Government grain can be stored in the factories , and sold at the local hats with great facility and without disturbing the markets , and (5) that the system is economical .

I do not propose to try the system more extensively in the Sudder' sub -division, because factories in other parts are comparatively few, but I think it may be applied, if necessary , in the Tajpore and Hajeepore sub -divisions .

33. Good progress appears to have been made in the grouping of villages in circles of theDurbhunga and Mudhoobunee sub-divisions .

34. I would respectfully suggest that the form and headings of some subjects of the fortnightly narrative be now altered , as they seem scarcely suited to the system of relief circles, and there appear to be some points on which it is no longer necessary for district officers to report ( e. g. , transport) ; uniformity of practice in reporting on relief circles is very desirable. I would also recommend that more detailed instructions be issued regarding the information to be submitted under head (F) , charitable relief.

Narrative of Scarcity and Relief in Sarun District for the fortnight ending Ath April 1874 .

A.- STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

Abundance or scarcity of supply in the bazar .

1. With the exception of Bussuntporo , where supplies are reported to be somewhat scarce, the bazars of the district are everywhere sufficiently supplied with grain , and though the importations have somewhat fallen off, private trade still holds out .

2. In the Sudder sub- division , during the fortnight the private importations were , to Revelgunge, 63,365, of which 12,750 were maize, 7,600 barley, 4,600 wheat , 7,050 rice, and the rest other grains ; to Dooreegungo , 2,625 maunds , and to Maharajgunge, 1,882 maunds ; while the imports from Chumparun were only 268 maunds . The exports of grain to Tirhoot and Chumparun amounted to 6,164 and 848 maunds respectively.

3. Mr. Hudson writes as follows of his sub -division :-

"My own observations made in the Parsa thana assure me that the bazars are very well supplied indeed with every kind of grain and every description of ordinary food-vegetables , small fish, goor, & c . In Bussuntpore and Mashrakh the result of my inquiries shows supplics to be running short. In the latter thana I have the testimony of 103 putwarees to the existence of a deficiency." 4. The following is Mr. Wright's account for the Sewan sub -division:-

"There is no falling off in the supplies in the bazars of this sub - division ; thethe supply is always more than the demand. During the fortnight under report the private importations amounted to 8,861 maunds at Guthoni , Siswan, Darawlee, and Sewan . The above amount was made up of 2,836 maunds rice , 693 maunds gram, 308 maunds Indian - corn, and small quantities of barley, wheat, and other grains . These importations were chiefly from Ghazipore , Azimgurh, and Goruckpore, on the other side of the Ghogra River, and small quantities from Patna and Bhagulpore ." Mr. Rattray reports under this head as follows :-

"Importations still continue, and the supply in the market is equal to the demand. The importation of Indian-corn has stopped , as the grain will not keep , and the stocks are said to be sold off."

5. Of the Hutwa estate Mr. Hodgkinson writes :-

" There has been no failure in the supply of grain during the past fortnight, but the firmness of the prices after the harvest points to the necessity of the supply being supple- mented by sales of raj and Government grain before very long. Rice has , I regret to say, risen in price, only 15 and 16 seers kucha (9 to 93 pucka) being now procurable for a rupce . But as other grains , of which the late harvest has given a new supply, form the staple- food of the poorer classes of the people at this season , I do not propose to open our stores while these may be expected to hold out , although rice has gone below the limit of 10 seers .

It is observed that Mr. Hodgkinson's prices differ from those returned by the police, and that the price of rice quoted in his remarks is not borne out by the price- current given by him below.

Kind and price of grain .

6. The kind and price of grain selling at the principal marts and at the thanas and outposts are given in the annexed statement . Prices are exceptionally high at Garhha , Bussuntpore, Dighwara, Goothuee, and Raghoonathpore , where , while the price of rice ranges at less than 11 seers , at the same time more than 14 , 15 , and 16 seers of grain of any kind are not procurable for the rupee.

Stock of food in the hands of the people .

7. Opinions seem to differ as to the ultimate destination of the crops just harvested, but, as stated in the last narrative, my own view of the matter coincides with that of the sub - divisional officer of Sewan, who reports as follows :-

"Up to the present, almost the whole of the grain of the rubbee crops which have just been reaped is in the hands of the cultivators ; but they will not, I feel certain, retain much of it ; the greater portion willbe sold in the bazars , and a large quantity will also find its way into the hands of the mahajuns . It is only the better class of cultivators who will store any of it . The common class of cultivators in this district are not in the habit of storing grain, but depend on the bazara for their supplies . Very little of the food-grain sold in the SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

markets by the cultivators is carried out of the district. Most of it is bought up by the dealers in the bazars, who keep it to resell at a profit afterwards."

Mr. Kattray says that " the yield of the rubbee harvest has been reserved for private con- sumption , except where proprietors are much in debt to mahajuns ." The Sub - Deputy Collectors , on the contrary, says " that they are paying the greater portion to their creditors and keeping the smaller for their own use .

"Besides satisfying the mahajun's debts, the cultivators have to pay their rent to their landlords , very few of whom , including even the largest zemindars in the division, will forego or even postpone their demands , and to meet these claims , the poorest class of ryots must dis- pose of the grain obtained from their rubbee crops , and would therefore be able to store very little for their own consumption even if they wished to do so ; but, as I have already stated, it is not their custom to store it ; they prefer depending on the local marts for their daily wants ."

Acontrary report, however, is made by Mr. Hudson, who writes :-

"(1) From personal inquiries made by me in the villages chiefly of the Parsa circle, "(2 ) Froin the report of the police of same circle made afterafter investigation,

" (3) From information given by the putwarees of 130 villages in the Bussuntpore and Mashrakh circles , it appears that the rubbee harvest , which has just been reaped, has been stocked by the ryots for their own consumption, and has not found its way into the hands of the zemindars and mahajuns ."

And agaiu he writes :-

" It is generally ascertained that the rubbee harvest throughout the three thanas is stocked by the assamees for their own consumption, and this supply, it is estimated, will last them for about two months . There can be no doubt that zemindars have stocks of grain in many places, but it is not generally admitted . At Sotihar , however , and other places in Parsa thana, where I made inquiries , the zemindars informed me that they were supporting their ryots with advances of grain ; and this proves that they must have grain in stock . " Two- thirds of the putwarees of Mashrakh and Bussuntpore , who have been questioned on the subject , deny that there are any stocks of grain at all ; buť as regards the recent harvest, I am convinced that this is a misrepresentation ; and indeed the rest of the putwarees examined admit stocks in the hands of both ryots and zemindars , and confirm the result of my own investigation as to the rubbee crop ." Of course the crops just reaped are yet in the hands of the cultivators, but I doubt much their being permitted to retain them .

Rainfall.

8. There has been no rainfall during the fortnight .

State of the Crops.

9. The rubbee crops have now nearly everywhere been gathered, but complete returns of the yield have not yet been received . The principal planters have been asked to furnish information on this head , but answers have as yet only come in from a few. In the next narrative I hope to give the final result for each thana. As feared , the damage done by the hail-storm of the 16th has proved on inquiry to have been very serious . From the report of the canoongo it appears that the destructive part of its course was in a north - easterly direction from Ghorahat on the Gogra , 5 miles north - west of Manjhee, and that it extended thence for a length of 18 miles to within a few miles south of Mashrakh , with a breadth of from 2 to 4 miles . The thickness of the hailstones on the surface of the ground is reported to have been somewhere three inches and somewhere four to five inches , while in some places they are said not to have melted away within 50 or 60 hours after the shower . The area affected by the storm is computed to be 45 square miles in extent, and about 80 villages are reported to have suffered, in more than 30 of which the loss to the crops has been 8 annas and upwards . It is estimated by the canoongo that one - third of the rubbee food -crops on an area of about 10,000 acres has been altogether lost . He writes also that " the villages that happened to be on the skirts of the storm line have suffered far less than those occurring in the centre of it, which have sustained damage nearly 10 or 12 annas ," and he adds that " the grain recovered after the hail -storm will barely suffice for a month's consumption." The action of the landholders in preventing cutting of the crops pending settlement of the rents has occasioned greater loss than would otherwise have occurred . 10. Mr. Macrae, of the Arrowah indigo concern , who has outworks also in the Mashrakh and Parsa thanas , writes as follows with regard to the crops :-

"About 12 annas only of the land usually applied to rubbee were actually sown , and the rest abandoned for want of moisture and facilities of irregation in the pergunnahs of Bal and Goa. In the month of January, the intense cold for some days greatly injured the crops of rahar , cotton , kerao, and mussur (pulses) , and reduced their outturn to only about 4 annas yield ; but the wheat and barely, which were helped by irrigation and some rainfall in February, have been very successful , and fully more than an average yield generally; but in the middle of March a destructive storm of hail and rain passed over a por- tion of the above pergunnahs, taking a direction from the village of Roosee to Mashrakh , some 10 koss in length and from to 2 koss in breadth, and within that space the injury to the rubbee crops gergenerally has been very serious . Of the opium crop, about 12 annas bad been collected previous to the storm, and the balance was lost .

407 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22 , 1874.

"Exclusive of the poppy, there has been of all rubbee crops about an average yield of 10 annas in pergunnahs Bal and Goa .

" In pergunnah Makair crops have been generally worse . A less area has been sown in

11. Mr. Tullock , of the Nowadah factory, in the south of Parsa thana , writes that he estimates the actual yield of the rubbee crops in his " dehat " as under :

Barley Wheat Rahar Gram

8 annas .

12 دو

8 دو

12. The report of the yield to the north of the Bussuntpore thana is, as was expected, very unfavorable, Mr. Exshaw , of Bala factory, writing that the rubbee crop has not yielded more than 4 annas in his neighbourhood.

13. Mr. Hudson writes as follows :-

" The outturn of the rubbee crop for Parsa circle may be taken at 12 annas for half the cultivated area, and 4 annas for the remainder, the former representing the irrigated and the latter the unirrigated soil . The outturn for Bussuntpore may be estimated at 4 annas ." 14. The following is Mr. Wright's account of the state of the crops in the Sewan sub - division : -

"The rubbee crops are now almost entirely cut . A field or two of rahar may still be seen in places, but otherwise the country looks bare. The ryots are busy having their crops trodden out, and, as far as can be known as yet, the yield is pretty fair throughout the division ."

Mr. D. N. Reid of Saddowah has been good enough to supply the following estimate of the rubbee crops in the Barowlee thana for this season, as compared with that of former average seasons :-

Of the crops in the Darawlee thana, the Sub - Deputy Collector reports that " the average

Probably kutcha maunds .- J. E. D.

ontturn of barley and wheat is 13 maunds per beegha against 15 maunds of previous years . Rahar yields at an average rate of 7 maunds per beegha. "

Of the Sewan thana, the Sub -Deputy Collector says that " the average outturn of these crops (wheat and barley) in the jurisdiction of this thana is 9 maunds per beegha against 11 maunds of previous year," is confirmed by my further inquiries .

And Mr. Rattray, in reporting of the crops throughout pergunnah Pachlakh , states as follows :-

" I have been over the whole of the Pachlakh pergunnah . There are scarcely any crops to be seen in the fields , as the gathering of the harvest is nearly completed . Rahar and a few fields of sugaroane are all that remain to be cut of the rubbee crops . The yield of the rubbeehas not, on the whole, been very much below the average of previous years .

After all, the present state of prices is the best test of the yield of the recent harvest , and under the circumstances one is justified in distrusting the view that the outturn " has not, on the whole, been very much below the average of previous years, " save in the case of dearah lands , and where exceptional means of irrigation were available.

15. Regarding the Ilutwa estate, Mr. Hodgkinson writes as follows under this head:- " I have nothing to add to my remarks in last report regarding the crop outturn. Cheena has been largely sown in opium and potato lands where water is procurable . The crop, as far as I have seen it, is healthy but certainly thin."

Condition of the People .

16. The continuous high prices of food are beginning to tell still more upon the people, as is evident from the increased numbers on the relief works , but owing to the ample means of employment provided for the people in the immediate vicinity of their homes , there is no general distress of an extreme nature .

17. Mr. Hudson reports as follows

"There is no alteration , as far as I have had the means of judging , in the condition of the people . My experience in Parsa thana during the past fortnight tells me that they are in tolerably easeasy circumstances . Noteably I have receiceived spontaneous replies to this effect at Sotchar, Dhernee, Dighwara , Rasoolpote, and many other places throughout the south and west of the thana circle. I inquired at nearly every village along the road on my way from Garka to Teraiza, and everywhere received the answer ' hal achha hae. All is well here at Mushrakh itself, and the Sub Inspector makes a good report of the surrounding neighbourhood , but the putwarees of Mashrakh and Bussuntpore generally report distress amongst the people 408 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22 , 1874 .

of their villages, and say that there is considerable resort to the relief works . I have not had much opportunity lately of forming a personal opinion myself as to the condition of these two circles, having been absent in Parsa during the past fortnight . The planters whom I have met with continue to assure me that there is no distress in the villages leased to them ." 18. Under this head the following is the report of the sub -divisional officer of Sewan :-

" There has been no material change in the condition of the people since the date of my last report . They are still employed in the rubbee harvest and on the numerous relief works throughout the division .

Under this head Mr. Rattray says " that the laboring classes are finding work in the gathering of the harvest, and there is ample work for the poorer classes on the public roads and tanks which are keeping many, now pinched for food , from lapsing into a state of starvation, and, so far as I can judge of the prospects before us, it appears to me that relief measures will have to be continued for the next five or six months ."

The following is extracted from Mr. Rattray's diary of the 27th March, written from Sreenugger in the vicinity of Mairwah :-

"Bhaban Singh , the principal zeminder in the neighbourhood , informs me that there is no distress , and that the poorer classes are finding work in the gathering of the harvest and on the tanks being excavated in this part of the country. He tells me that there is no want of grain in the markets, though not to be had except at high rates ; rice selling at 12 seers for the rupee. He does not think matters any worse than when I was in the neighbourhood in the beginning of January last . On the contrary , he thinks that matters are somewhat better with the gathering of the harvest . So far as I can gather from him , he does not think that matters will be any worse at any time during the year than they are at the present moment ." It is to be hoped that Bhaban Singh's sanguine view of the situation may be justified.

Known cases of Misery and Starvation .

19. There have been no cases of starvation , and the means of relieving distress , which cannot be met by the relief works, are largely available throughout the distriot .

20. Mr. Hudson reports as follows :-

" No cases of starvation have occurred ( as far as can be ascertained) , nor have any excep- tional cases of distress come within my experience, or been reported to me." 21. And Mr. Wright makes the following report from Sewan:---

" No cases of the kind have been reported . Mr. Rattray says that there is no serious distress at present, and I have seen no misery or destitution in the villages ."

Grain- Thefts or Robberies .

22. There have been ten cases of grain - thefts during the fortnight .

23. The accompanying comparative statement shows the number of offences against property involving an intention of theft committed in the month of March during the years 1872, 1873, and 1874, as called for in Government Circular No. 4081 , dated 20th Decem- ber last .

It will be seen that the number of such offences is slightly fewer than in the two previous years , a result which, considering the nature of the season, is, II think , attributable only to the exceptional means of relief afforded to the people in the present year .

Condition of any Special Tracts .

24. The Chupra, Manjhee, Bussuntpore , Mashraklı , aud Parsa thanas are the worse situated so far as the numbers on the relief works afford an indication of distress, the numbers in the Sewan sub - division being comparatively few, owing probably to the extensive sugarcane production in that sub-division having givon employment to the poorer classes for some months past.

B.- RELIER WORKS .

Progress of Relief Works , &c .

25. The annexed statements show the relief works in progress, and the number employed thereon. The average number daily employed during the fortnight has been 120,129 , and the number on the last day was 135,079 .

Now that the numbers are showing a rapid tendency to increase, it is of the last import- ance that the great works of the bank channel to the north of the district , and the proposed Gogra embankment to the south , should be put in hand at once . Already many have had to be placed on village roads to find employment for the people , and during the rains it will be still more difficult to provide continuous work . The percentage of persons belonging to the non- laboring class amongst those now employed is 33 per cent . During the fortnight ten additional works have been started .

26. Mr. Hudson writes as follows :-

" The results of personal inquiries made at random amongst the coolies show that they receive their due amount of wages in the currency of the place, and that the work is freely open to all classes . "

27. Under this head Mr. Hodgkinson reports as follows :-

"Harvest operations have continued to keep down the number employed on relief works . The cowrie system , which has been invariably adopted on the raj works, has, after an expe- rience of four months , been found to work admirably . The condition of the laborers is itself a sufficient proof that no evil results have followed from exacting work under this system , and it is most satisfactory to find that whale persons of all ages and sizes , young and SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874. 409

old, weak and strong, have been employed and none turned away who sought work, the outturn of work has been proved by measurement to be in almost every case not less than half the amount which able -bodied laborers alone would be expected to show in ordinary seasons ; in other words , the cost is only double the amount which the cost estimated at the ordinary ticca rates would come to. In places where the works have been more directly under European supervision, still more favorable results have been obtained. The payment of the coolies for each basket- full of earth has been so regulated, that even the weakest and youngest on the works can earn sufficient for their livelihood ; and it has not been found that the stronger have been able to make more than a fair day's wage . While the works have drawn the women and children of the laboring population to them in large numbers , the men of the family have kept to their field work and not been enticed from it , as they would have been if they found the cowrie system yield them unduly high wages ."

28. The cowrie system is being tentatively introducedby the Executive Engineer, but tinless increased remuneration is given to those who are old and infirm or of tender age, in which case many complications might ensue, it is difficult to understand how these can earn sufficient for their livelihood, while at the same time only subsistence allowance is obtained by the able -bodied for a full day's work . It is not enough that none should be turned away who seek work on the conditions offered , but it is also necessary that the system should be such that none are deterred from seeking work by the conditions of employment given. Mr. Wright reported that the introduction of the cowrie system at Sewan resulted in large numbers deserting the works, a result which was claimed by him as an advantage; but as the presumption is that these would not have come on the works at all , unless in need of the means of subsistence , the probability is that the relief intended to be given failed in a corresponding degree . Mr. Hodgkinson, with the extensive agency available on the Hutwa estate for seeking out and relieving in other ways cases of distress not met by the relief works, could perhaps afford to overlook this consideration, but with the limited agency at command at the outset in other parts of the district, serious danger might have been incurred by the general introduction of the cowrie system. Doubtless that system is the best, as far as the cost of the work is concerned, but it seems to me that the element of cost is quitea secondary consideration, and that the question is how best to ensure the saving of the lives of the people, and not how best to carry on the work given for that end. Perhaps the best solution of the problem would be to have the two systems in operation together on one and the same work , the one for the able -bodied and the other for the weak and infirm . But there are difficulties attending this plan also . As to the argument that persons would have deserted their field work for the relief works , if they had found the cowrie system yield thèm unduly high wages, I do not think that there is much force in it, as practically the ordinary wages of agricultural labor, being paid in kind, are much higher in a season like the present than any that could be carried on relief works, and where such laborers come on the relief works at a time of agricultural operations , it is because their employers prefer. during a period of scarcity , to perform themselves the labor which they would have hired in ordinary years, while if the cultivators who employ such labor are alluded to, it may be pointed out that it has never yet been found in any famine that this class are in the habit of neglecting the agricultural operations on which they depend for subsistence for the sake of a merely temporary employment on relief works, nor is it reasonable to suppose that they would do so . The comparatively low rents prevalent on the Hutwa estate , affording as they must exceptional facilities for the employment of agricultural labor, probably go far to account for the comparatively small numbers on the relief work there .

29. The relief works on the wards' estates were temporarily stopped owing to the Com- missioner having demurred to the cost of such works being borne by the Court of Wards, except in the case of entire estates owned by minors in a thoroughly solvent position; and having objected also to loans being raised for the purpose . But the Commissioner having since explain- ed that he did not mean to refuse conditional sanction to such works being carried on in certain cases, the general manager has been authorized to re -open the works to the limited extent conditionally sanctionedby the Commissioner .

State Emigration to British Burma . 30. Ninety - three emigrants have been despatched to Calcutta during the fortnight .

More are coming into the depôt here .

C. TRANSPORT OF FOOD . Approximate amount of private food- supplies , &c . 31. Such information as is available under this head has already been given. 32. Regarding the Hutwa grain supplies, Mr. Hodgkinson furnishes the following statement :

83. The Commissioner having refused to sanction the 28,000 maunds contracted for , for the General Wards' estates, at a time when the prospects of the future food - supply for those estates warranted alarm and seemed to justify the fullest precaution, basing his refusal apparently on the alteration for the better, caused by the more favorable outturn of the rubbee crops , the grain delivered at Revelgunge in accordance with previous contract should, if not sanctioned for the Wards' estates , be taken over on behalf of Government , and oan, if so directed, be made available in reduction of the balance of the district allotment still remaining to be received .

D.- STORAGE OF GOVERNMENT GRAIN .

34. The accompanying statement shows the storage places, the distribution thereat of the grain allotted, and the amount of grain received at the different storage places up to the end of the fortnight . The total amount of grain received had been 4,02,920 maunds , of which 3,74,003 maunds had been finally stored and 24,334 maunds were in transit.

E.-ADVANCES TO PRIVATE PARTIES AND THEIR RESULTS .

35. Rs. 177-7 have been advanced during the fortnight for purchase of grain for sale, and Rs. 35,817 to zemindars for grain or money advances to their ryots , making up the total as yet advanced on these accounts to Rs . 1,39,877-7 and Rs . 3,44,904 respectively; and for land improvement Rs. 18,872 have been advanced, bringing up the total on this account to Rs. 81,146.

37. Mr. Wright reports as follows under this head :-

"During the fortnight , the subscription to the charitable relief fund amounted to Rs . 140 ; the sums collected during the same period amount to Rs . 157. "

In my last report I mentioned that Rs . 3,150 had been sent to the different circles for gratuitous relief of poor people who maybe found unable to work . Up to date I have received intimation of only Rs . 3-13 having been paid. Of this sum Mr. D. N. Reid of Suddowah gave one rupee to a woman " whose husband was reported as having died from starvation," but on enquiry Mr. Reid discovered that the report was false , and that the man had died from natural causes . The balance ( Rs . 2-13) was paidby Moulvi Golam Abbas of the Harpore circle to six persons .

38. And Mr. Hodgkinson writes thus :-

"The number receiving charitable relief still continues very small. The enquiries through village agency have been completed in some instances , and tickets will now be distributed to those who are reported to be incapable of working for gratuitons relief. 15 In some cases this has been already done. Judging from the returns sent in I don't think that gratuitous relief will be necessary in more than for 800 to 1,000 cases in the

Hutwa sub -division ; but even after tickets are distributed , I do not expect that this number will be reached for some time to come. In my next fortnightly narrative I hope to be able to give the results of the enquiry and the steps taken on it in detail. " SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 411

CHUPRAH MAGISTRATE'S OFFICE , The 6th April 1874.

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874. 419

No. 967F , dated Champarum, the 9th April 1874 .

From-H . KRAN , Esq. , Collector of Champarun , To-The Offg. Secretary to the Government of Bengal , Statistical Department .

I HAVE the honor to submit the fortnightly narrative of scarcity and relief for this district for the fortnight ending 4th April .

A.- STATE OF THE COUNTRY ,

I propose to deal with each relief sub- division according to its number .

Sub-division No. 1. This sub -division, which comprises thanas Moteeharee and Adapore, is in charge of W. B. Oldham , Esq. , c. s . He reports " that none of the bazar supplies of the grain usually offered for sale at this time of the year have fallen short, but rice, is scarce, while there is still an abundance of maize , and grain is quite equal to the demand . " At Segowli (the head -quarters for the present of this sub-division ), coarse rice has been selling at 11 seers for the rupee . At Ramgurwa , six miles to the north of Segowli , it was rather deaver. The great annual mela at Adaporo ( on the Nepaul frontier) had been held during the fortnight, and there Mr. Oldham found that common rice was selling at between 10 and 11 seers .

At Kutkenwa (another frontier outpost) 7 miles east of Adapore, and where the supply had shown signs of running short , the same priceprice (nearly 11 soers for the rupee) obtained, while there was an abundance of maize at nearly 15 seers . The market at Kutkenwa had suddenly lightened within the fortnight , which Mr. Oldham assigns to the excellent rubbeo crops existing just north of Kutkenwa in the Nepaul territory, and which had begun to ba harvested.

With regard to supplies of grain in the hands of zemindars , &c. , Mr. Oldham says: "There are indications that the people still have considerable supplies ; a large fire occurred at Segowli which destroyed 35 houses ; only one of these was a grain dealer's , the others belonging to petty tobacconists and shop -keepers . In several of the latter , I found largo supplies ofof maize and oilseeds, and some rice, One tobtobacconist stated that he had lost 600 inaunds of rice. Another indication is the fluctuation in the numbers of the laboring gangs . In checking the relief distribution at Koraiya, a frontier village , reported as the most dis- tressed in this sub -division, I found some persons who had been relieved , and despatched to the relief works lately opened there , in their houses . They explained to me that they did not care to work every day. Again , at Kutkenwa which was also thought to be badly off; on very light task - work being introduced on the relief- works there, the number of laborers fell one day from over 1,300 to 600."

There had been no rain during the fortnight . The crops , with the exception of " cheena, " were being harvested ; the barley, wheat and dal crops have been and are certainly not less than 8 annas of an average season . The poppy crop is said to be very fair. The " cheena" was looking poor at present , on account of the west winds, where not irrigated. A large portion, however, had been irrigated from the local streams, and none is irrecoverable if even alittle rain would fall . Of the rice lands, i. e. , those unfit for any cultivation but rice, fully two - thirds have been prepared for the next sowings .

Of the condition of the people Mr. Oldham reports very favourably ; he says :-" Their condition is very much better than I expected , and they show no signs of sinking . All the gangs employed on the relief works consist of able-bodied people , all of whom are fit to have task -work exacted from them . They still swarm to the works , but show an independerice both as regards their choice of sites for working, and when it is attempted to make them give a duereturn of labor, which is very significant; forfor instanceinstance , I found numbersnum of persons from villages near to and south of Segowli on Mr. Lethbridge's works at Raingurwa, while work on the tanks being made here by the Public Works Department is very poorly attended . On the works under me I have been trying to introduce light task- work , that is , to exact at least 1,000 cubic feet from each gang of 50 persons , containing not less than 15 able -bodied men with tools . The result of trying to get only two- thirds of this work from the laborers at Kutkenwa has already been noticed. On introducing it at Sripore , 13 miles north of Moti- harce on the road there , the coolies employed struck work altogether ."

This description of the condition of the people is very significant and speaks for itself. Mr. Oldham hadhad onlyonly seon two cases of emaciationtion during his tour through his sub- division. One was an old Mussulman cultivator who had come into the Ramgurwa poor-house for food. He lived only two miles off and had three beegahs of land, which his son cultivated ; he was himself long past work .

The other case was that of an old Rajpoot in a village about three miles from Ram- gurwa factory; his grandchildren were in good condition , and he had two bullocks . He said he had starved himself to give his grandchildren food. He was supplied with a maund of maize and 20 seers of rice .

The spinning relief which Mr. Oldhaın is introducing will meet these cases . Just before Mr. Oldham went round his sub- division , charitable relief had beert distri- buted . This no doubt accounts partly for the good condition of the people. The usual number of beggars swarmed , Mr. Oldham says, at the Adapore " mela, " and they were all in good condition, The mela, however, was not so numerously attended as usual . Of the whole sub -division the northern two-thirds, Mr. Oldham says, is the portion which will 420 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874 .

require most attention , and of that tract , the fifty square miles adjoining the Ramnuggur country ( i. e. , sub - division of Bulthur, which forms a portion of the Ramnuggun relief sub -division) are the worst of. This portion consists, almost entirely of only rice soil , and is, moreover, more thickly populated than the rest of the rice tracts .

Relief sub- division No. 2-This subdivision , comprising thanas Dhaka and Modhubun , is in charge of Mr. S. Kilby. Regarding bazar supplies Mr. Kilby says : There is no difficulty experienced in obtaining supplies at any of the bazars ; a very small quantity of the new rubbee crop had found its way into the markets , as the cultivators seem very loth to dispose of it ." With regard to the prevailing rates of food, Mr. Kilby gives the following table:-

There had been no rain, and the prospects therefore of the " cheena " crop (which is not irrigated to any large extent in these thanas) , are very bad; indeed, unless rain falls shortly, this crop will be a failureilure except in low-lying and irrigated lands. Regarding the condition of the people , Mr. Kilby reports that in consequence of the numerous relief works that have been opened out, their condition is satisfactory . No cases of death from starvation have oc- curred,, though some cases of emaciation have been met with . These persons have been tegu- laily fed, and they are now able to work on the roads. Funds have been supplied to each member of the sub-divisional committee, and to the police at Dhaka and Madhubun to enable them to provide gratuitous relief to all who from bodily infirmity cannot be referred to the works. About 80 persons had been thus relieved during the fortnight .

The central portion of this sub- division is stated by Mr. Kilby to be the worst , as it is for the most part a rice-growing country. The " rubbee " was being harvested , and a great portionhad been threshed . The outturn , it is estimated , will be about as follows :-In the north of the sub - division (around Ghorashan) , a ton-anna crop is expected ; about Meerpore not more than a five - anna crop; further south,to Seeraha about a four-anna, and in the neighbourhood of Modhubun and south to the Tirhoot boundary, an eight to ton - anna crop.

Relief sub-division No. 3. This sub-division , comprising thanas Gobindgunge and Kessuriah , is in charge of Mr. Weekes, c. s. He reports as follows :-

" The state of the crops is again altered for the worse . There is hardly any moisture in the soil , except in some of the lowest lying lands. The indigo does not germinate , or germinates and dies, and the millet is being scorched up." With regard to the rubbee , Mr. Weekes reports that the crops are very much better in the west and north-west of his sub- division than in the north and south -east; the crop is being rapidly harvested , but the produce is in many places indifferent. The " kodo " crop is also said not to have germinated .

The harvesting of the cold-weather crop had caused a lull in the progress of distress . He is of opinion that the agriculturists will be able to tide over April, and the more fortunate part of them half through May with the assistance of the cold- weather crop .

In particular tracts, i. e. , from Gobindgunge along the Gunduck , past Burhurwa, Serni , and along towards Arrey Ra, the fortunate villagers will be able to last through the whole ofMay andand longer , but it is different, he thinks , with the rest of the division ; no confidence can be placed in the millet crop . The two lowest classes (the incapables and the day- laborers) are provided for by the relief works and charitable relief. The royts of all grades are clamorous for loans. If this estimate of the condition of the people is correct, Mr. Weekes should lose no time in organising village -to-village relief, and this I am glad to sec he is doing . He says,-

" The relief works reach most of the day- laborers . To cusure the relief of those unable to work , the aged , infirm , and the sick , 1 have been constantlyconstantly in tents and on the move, and, with the assistance of the planters , have established a satisfactory system. The principle is to keep the people as much as possible in their villages . The putwaree of each village brings all incapables in his villages to the planters (who are members of the sub-divisional committee and relieving officers of the several circles) , and their names , caste, residence, &c. , as guaranteed by the putwaree are entered in a register ; each putwarce then receives every 7 or 15 days enough rice at seer per head, to support those who are entered in the register , and residents of his village. " This plan, Mr. Weekes says , is answering very well. Storc -houses and centres are being selected , but he does not propose tobuild many granaries as there are many empty ones , he says , which he intends to fill when the need arises from the main stores, which aro situated principally at factories within casy reach of each centro. Mr. Weckes has also used every endeavour to promote cotton- spinning and weaving, and with considerable success . All the putwarees havebeen directed to extend this kind of relief, and are strictly enjoined to see that each person, in want apalios for and obtains the mode of assistance best suited to his or her caso . Tames have either had separate earth - work assigned to them or been employed in making baskets ; this has been SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874. 421

found necessary, as other people object to work in company with Domes . Mr. Weckes has also pushed on the work of granting land improvement applications as fast as possible, and the pains he has taken has had the desired effect of increasing the number of applicants . The putwaree agency is indented upon largely also in this species of relief, each putwaree having to testify to the quality of the security tendered in every case in which Mr. Weckes does not personally inspect the property, and in each case in which money is advanced inquiries are made into the use to which it has been devoted . Another class of loans had been made through the European planters who have, both in this sub-division and in all the others ( where planters reside), taken advances from Government for the assistance ( in grain or money) of their ryots. These gentleman, as Mr. Weekes observes ( and as has already been frequently brought to the notice of Government ) , have shown great public spirit and humanity in this and in many other ways .

These loans (for assistance to ryots) have been of great value, reaching (as Mr. Weekes points out) , " the main body of the middle class, who are the only large body , and at the same time by far the most important class, who are not reached by other relief measures ." Relief sub-division No. 4 .-( Thanas Bettiah and portion of Lowrya) . Mr. Samuells reports that the state of the bazars remains as before, and that no scarcity of supplies is felt. The price of rice was reported to have risen about 10 seers at Rutwal , but it, was found to be incorrect , and when Government grain was offered for sale it found no purcha- sers. The peoplo are said to be fully employed in harvesting the rubbee , and in their sugarcano fields . The price of rice had been steady at 10 to 11 scers . No cases of star- vation had occurred and no increase in criare .

Relief sub -division No. 5 .- ( Bugha and portion of Lowrya) . Mr. Howe reports from this sub- division, as follows :-

" No rain has fallen during the past fortnight, and matters are much the same as when I last wrote. The sale of Government grain has proved a great success , and is much appreciated ; it will , I think, have soon to be extended to the east of the sub -division , where supplies , though procurable, are getting scarcer. Rice has been selling during the last fortnight at the following rates :-

Ramnuggur, Government rice through the traders, 11 seers cleanesl, 12 seers uncleaned .

Shikarpore , varying from 9 to 10 .

Harnatour, 10 scers .

Bughaha, from 9 to 10t seers.

"Makai' has and been selling at Ramnuggur at 13 seers , at Shikarpore at 12 ; it has been procurable in sufficient quantities . In the east, rice ( as above stated ) had become more scarce, and the sale of grain will soon be necessary ; at Harnatour (north- west) on the other hand, it had become more plentiful. " This Mr. Howe attributes to the fact of sufficient advances having been given . The Jharoos are more or less independent, and the demand being less , the owners of grain stores are inore anxious to sell, perhaps , because they fear that Government rice maybe brought to the market .

With regard to the general condition of the people, Mr. Howe reports " Generally speaking, our relief measures have very beneficially affecteaffected the condition of the people. During the fortnight the daily average receiving support by working on the roads was over 9,000 during the first , and over 12,000 during the second week, and the total number em- ployed was 143,000 . Large advances (vide heading E ) have been made to Assamees , and though the condition of the latter in some part of the sub-divison is still far from satisfactory, there can be no doubt that the advances already inade have saved the Assamec population from starvation . The sale of Government grain, by bringing ample supplies into the most distressed parts at cheaper rates, has greatly diminished the general distress , and restored the confidence of the people, whose condition by these measures has been assimilated to that of ordinary years." There had been no cases of starvation, nor had grain - thefts occurred, and fires had been much fower, and all were accidental . Speaking of special tracts, Mr. Howe says-" In Tuppah Butsura I have been able to obtain , through the European members of the sub -com- mittoe , accurate statistics of the ' cheena' and rubbee crops. The area under cultivation was as follows :-

Cheona

347 beeghas . 365 "

Rubbeo

" Owing to insufficiency of rain the outturn has not been good. As mentioned in my last narrative, the manufacture of sugarcane gives employment and support to many, and tho worst time for the tuppah will be whon this employment ceases. The arrangements for meeting distress aro, however, fully advanced , so that we are prepared for the worst . ' no " rubbee" to speak of. " In the Ramnuggur tract, and generally, throughout the oast and south, there has been " In Ramnuggur and the south , the people now, in some form or other, depend almost entirely on indirect Government help ; while in the cast we are rapidly coming to this condition. By this, I mean that in the former tract trade has failed to bring in suppl and that but for the sale of Government rice there would be great scarcity and sutiering ; secondly, that the Assamees depend for food- supplies on advancos made, and to be made, by Government ; and thirdly , that our works keep alive a large portion of the population. But the number of parsons who receive direct gratuitous aid from Government is compara- 422 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874.

tively trifling. In the east, food is gradually becoming scarcer, and as soon as the necessity of selling Government grain becomes inevitable the measure willbe adopted .

Regarding circle No. 1 , Mr. Oldham writes :-

"There is a full supply of food in the neighbourhood of all the works , except at Ramgurwa, where temporarily grain payments are being made. At some of the works , whore the men were getting only 4 pice on the task - work system, when the 6 pice rate was started, they refused to work , saying that they preferred the & pice without the measurement . "

All the laborers , Mr. Oldham says, are in a fit state for task - work to be rigorously exacted, and, indeed , for the able -bodied to be turned away and drafted to the Public Works Department works .

To prevent the task - work system pressing too hard , an invalid gang has been started at each work , to be composed purely of persons who are unfit for task -work. Experiments in spinning relief on a small scale have been made, and were eminently successful . Cotton was given to some 30 persons only, all of whom gladly received it, and have spun it into very fair thread , and accounted for it strictly . Unfortunately, cotton is not procurable in any large quantities , and Mr. Oldham has therefore written to Gazeepore for some.

Mr. Kilby also reports that in circle No. 2 food is procurable near all the works , and that no complaints had been made to him on that score . WagesVages are distributed daily . The work -people bring their own tools, and higher wages are given to men who bring theitheir own kodalis , vic. , 9 pice ( 1 ) anna) . Mr. Kilby has started the "cowri khep" system , and finds that it works admirably. The maximum wage of 9 pice is given only to men who perform a full day's work, 7 to 8 pice being given to others . The Public Works Department has lately takeu charge of most of the relief works in this sub - division , and inuch credit is due to Mr. Eckstein , theAssistant Engineer, for the trouble he has taken to break up the gangs, which were getting unwieldy and putting matters altogether on a better footing. He has commenced several tanks, and has introduced the petty contract system , under which men with kodalis get on an average 2 annas a day , and others 6 or 7 pice . Baboo Durgapersad, of Modhubun, awealthy landed proprietor, is constructing a road from Modhubuu to Kodudporeghat, for the relief of his ryots .

In circle No. 3 Mr. Weekes has several tanks in progress , and he also has tried the " cowri khep" system with success. Mr. Weekes has been working hitherto without assist- anco from the Public Works Department . Mr. Arnot, who hashas lately joined the district, has now, however, been deputed by the Executive Engineer to the charge of the works in this circle.

Some of these officers have been deputed to Mr. Howe's circle also . The daily average in this sub-division , No. 5 , has reached 12,000 or 3,000 more than in the previous week . "People of all classes," Mr. Howe says, " flock to the roads and tanks , the poorer among the cultivating classes coming in very large numbers . The roads which attract most laborers are those around Ramnuggur , in which tract distress has been more severe than in any other part of the sub -division . The health of the laborers is good, and a marked im- provement in their condition is perceptible. They have now had regular employment and good pay for some months, while food has become plentiful and comparatively cheap since Government rice has been sold to the public . These causes have had the effect of considerably improving the condition of the laboring classes , and of all who come to the relief works , 424 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22 , 1874 .

there are, however, of course a large number still who , from weakness , are unable to perform a full day's work ." " On the three roads branching from Ramnuggur, traders who purchase rice from Government retail it to the workmen at 11 seors . In the east and west portions of the sub - division , where the system of selling rice to the public has 'not yet been introduced, sales to our workmen under rule A continue. At Harnatur and Bughaha the rate is 10 seers. Tho Executive Engineer. Upper Gunduck embankment, reports that rice was less plentiful thanbefore, and was selling at 9 seers per rupee . The laborers are still purchasing maize and other grains at 12 seers and 13 seers . The Government sale had been very small .

He states that the Burmah rice is not liked , and that a good deal of paddy is mixed with the rice.

About half of the earth - work has been finished . He complains of the inefficiency of the sub - overseers , and states that as portions of the embankment are finished , the coolies working thereon return to their villages , and are seldom porsuaded to go further on for work .

Out of the total assignment of grain, 150,000 maunds , 128,000 had been stored . The daily average of persons employed was 18,743 .

C.- TRANSPORT OF GRAIN .

The contract for the transport of grain is working most statisfactorily , even more than the stipulated amount having been conveyed per week into the district. The contractors complain that grain is not delivered to them fast enough at Bunkurghat. The route through Sarun to Gobindgunge is in full working order.

F.- CHARITABLE RELIEF,

SUB -DIVISION No. 1.-Mr. Oldham reports as follows , regarding this heading " The arrangements for charitable relief are completed. I have now the following members in my sub -committee, and shall have added to their number within the next fortnight :-

Mr. R. Lethbridge , Ramgurwah factory.

Thorp, Huroliah .

Captain F. Knowles , Commanding 2nd B. C., Segowlie .

Mr. A. Edwards, Motiharee.

W. F. Gibbon , Tirkowleah ."

Mr. Oldham has also two sub - committees under him. He say : " Mr. Lethbridge's assist- ance is invaluable . He has undertaken, and is actually looking after, the whole of the tract in farm to his factory, which embraces a great part of that which will require most attention . There is a poor-houso and hospital at Ramgurwah , both of which are being enlarged under Mr. bridge's supervision . I found thatthat hehehad started the ticket system as followed in Orissa, and up to date tickets for grain have been issued from his centre to 320 persons . The two inspectors under me have now visited alınost every village in the sub - division , and distributed money relief as they went , as have also done the Sub - Deputy Collector , Baboo Jugeshwar Singh , and Moonshee Durbari Lal. These distributions, with Mr. Lothbridge's arrangements , have fully alleviated all present distress , and left time for the grain- ticket system, which has now been started in all but the south-west portion of the sub -division , to come into operation. The inspectors have also convened and established ' punchayats in all the villages visited by them, to whom they have made over the sums for the mainten- ance of the persous charitably relieved, and, on checking the visitations, I have found that the 'punchayats' had very well , nor did I hear a single complaint against any of them. " SUB-DIVISION NO . 2. Mr. Kilby writes " The sub-division isbeing divide is boing divided into ten circles, cach containing 40 villages ; a member of the sub-divisional committee will bebeplaced in charge of each circle , having an inspector and 3 sub - inspectors under him ; cach sub- inspector will be put in charge of 15 villages. "

In this way Mr. Kilby proposes to account for the whole of his sub -division, cach portion being placed under the charge of some responsible person, and cach village provided for. This scheme differs from the system adopted by Messrs. Oldham and Weekes in the 2nd division, and Messrs . Samuells and Howe in the Bettiah division. In that the sub-agency to be employed is paid, and willbe somewhat costly, but it has its own advantages. One of the members , Mr. Macqueen, has started the system in 90 villages. Mr. Begg another SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 425

member, is making arrangements for his circle, and Mr. Kilby has commenced the scheme in 60 villages. These three circles comprise the worst portions of the sub - division, and the other circles will shortly, Mr. Kilby reports , be in working order . Mr. Kilby states that he is almost swamped with applications for loans, which, although not really required in most cases, necessitate'enquiry in all ; arrangements are being made to provide Mr. Kilby with assistance . A hospital has been erected at Pakree, but the health of the people is so good that there have been no admissions. A village-to - village enquiry has been, and is being made by Mr. Kilby and his inspectors ; those who are incapable of working, receive gratui- tous relief from the members of the sub - divisional committee, and in a few instances funds have been supplied to the village punchayats for distribution .

The measures adopted for charitable relief in sub -division No. 3 have already been notified in this report . In sub -division No. 4 (as reported in a former narrative for the fort- night ending the 21st February) , Mr. Samuells has divided his jurisdiction into eight relief centres , each centre being placed in charge of some responsible person . The agency employed is altogether unpaid. Poor-houses-houses have beebeen opened at Rutwal and Bettiah, and about 4,000 persons receive charitable relief daily throughout the sub-division.

Sub-division No. 5.- Regarding the arrangements in this sub-division, Mr. Howe writes : "The questions of the most pressing importance are, first, to provide the ' Assamee' popula- tion with sufficient good grain ; secondly , to provide them with, or to enable them to obtain, seed grain. Almost the entire population of the sub -division is agricultural, and the propor- tion of the cultivating class that comes to our works is small, though the actual numbers are large. The remainder now depend almost entirely on the advances they have received either from their zemindars or from Government, nor have they anything except advances to look forward to until the next rice crop is reaped . The best of them are poor and in debt, and it is from this fact that the question of advances becomes so difficult. On the one hand , unless advances are immediately made on a large scale, the ' Assamee' population will be reduced to starvation; while, on the other hand , there is the risk that , unless great care is taken in investigating each case, the security will be insufficient. To make advances too readily (except in the comparatively small class of cases coming under Rule F) , tends to demoralise the people, and renders them reckless in getting still further into debt . The difficulty is to combine sufficient promptness with sufficient caution, and to make a search- ing investigation without thereby losing the right moment for action. " Mr. Howe has submitted a scheme which has been sanctioned, and on which he has been acting. The following is an outline of this: a register (mouzahwar) is prepared in cach tuppah, in which the amount required approximately for each village is entered. This register is prepared in the first instance by the inspector of the circle, assisted, where possible, by any influential member of the committee resident in the tuppah . It is then carefully tested by the officer in charge of the circle, who can alter (increase or lessen) the total amount fixed in round numbers. As soon as this has been done, a certain quantity of grain is sent to each village, where it is kept in charge of the headmen of the village, from whom due security for its safe custody is taken. The class of cases requiring most immediate relief, i.e. , " Assamees," coming under Rule F ( which fortunately are comparatively few), will then be takenaken upup and disposed of summarily. These men can be readily found , as there arebut few in each village. The object of sending grain to each village, Mr.Mr. Howe explains, is-" first to give confidence, for experience shows that the mere presence of grain in a village (if the object of its being brought is known) has this effect ; secondly, to enable the advances under Rule F to be made at once. The summary inquiry preceding distribution under Rule F willbe carried on simultaneously, and, having once decided to whom to give under this rule, there is nothing like immediate action , which of course can only be taken if the grain is ready. Thirdly, because now is the best time for carrying grain throughout the interior , and we should therefore avail ourselves of it . Having provided every village with an amount of grain which , approximately, will suffice for advances, and having relieved the worst cases under Rule F, a register in the following form will be prepared and carefully tested by circlo inspectors and officers in charge of circles :-

426 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22 , 1874 .

When this return has been carefully tested, the zemindar will be called upon either to make the advance or to go security, Government making the tuccavce distribution . If he declines , the best security available will be taken, aud the procedure laid down in Circular No. 1088 of 25th February willbe followed , i. e ., the zemindar will be warned that Govern- ment reserves the right to recover the advance by legislation or otherwise. There are numerous landholders , jaghirdars, aritdars, &c . , whose securitycurity willwill be sufficient. The other landholders in the sub- division are the Rajahs of Bettiah and Ramnuggur. Mr. Howe has addressed Mr. Gibbon, the manager of the estates belonging to the former , and he will no doubt afford his cordial co - oporation . Under the Rajah of Ramnuggur's security Mr. Howe has advanced 5,094 maunds, and Colonel Boulderson about 4,000 . There are numerous villages, he reports , not belonging to the Rajah , where advances have to be made direct to Assamees, and where the procedure under Circular 1088 of 25th February will have to be followed . The tuppahs in the south belonging to the Rajah of Bettiah also require attention, the advances made by Mr. Gibbon being either incomplete, or having proved insufficient. Mr. Gibbon has been addressed on this subject, with regard to the very important question of providing seed -grain to the Assamees . Mr. Howe promises to submit a report as soon as he has completed some further inquiries he is making . There is very little seed - gseed - grain, he says, inhissub -division,sub - division , and he fears that it willI bebe withheld in order that high prices may be obtained. Under the special head of charitable relief, Mr. Howe writes :-" The sub- division has been divided into four large circles with 11 sub - circles ( corresponding with tuppahs) , in each of which there is a sub -inspector who prepares and tests the register of those unable from weakness to work . The poor-houses at Rainnuggur and Bagaha are in full working order . The principal feature in the charitable relief scheme is the village-to -village relief system (Rule 4) ; about 1,400 poor are supported each day. Colonel Boulderson manages the circle in the east (Balthur) , with five sub -circles ; Mr. Joakim is at Hurnataur, where a similar system is in force ; while I manage the Ram- nuggur circle with four sub - circles . The Bagaha sub -commsub -committee supervises tuppah Butsorah and the poor -house at Bagaha. In this way every part of the sub -division has proper supervision, and the rules are being carried into practical effect. The congregation of large masses at any place is avoided , while no case of distress can occur without being brought to notice and relieved .

P. S.-The Sonthal Pergunnahs' Narrative has now (13th April ) b been received . The Lieutenant -Governor is glad to find that Mr. Boxwell has visited thethe neighbourhoneighbourhood of which the Reverend Missionaries reported so badly , and has found the people all in very good condi- tion , though there is cause for fearing much scarcity and distress a month hence . The works which have been at once opened, and the Government grain which is being carried into the district should enable the Magistrate fully to relieve distress , and to give advances of food to carry ryots through the rainy season . The goodness of the mowah crop will greatly help the people. The great rise in the numbers of the work - people , who now amount to 26,869 , would seem to show that the people had been much in want of work . There seenis as yetto be no need for charitable relief in the Sonthal Pergunnahs ; but the Deputy Commissioner will have to arrange by what means he will make advances of grain to ryots such as he adverts to at paragraphs 30 and 31 of his Narrative . Happily the village organisation in the Sonthal Pergunnahs is very well preserved , and the Government officers will be able to work through village headmen, as well as through zemindars .

Narrative of Scarcity and Relief of the District of Monghyr for the fortnight ending 4th

April 1874 .

A. STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

THE bazars generally continue to be well supplied , and the price of grain remains almost stationary . The rubbee grain has not yet come into the market in large quantities , but when it does come in , I do not anticipate much change . Rice is selling from 10 to 12 seers per rupee, gram and peas from 17 to 18, and wheat from 15 to 16 seers per rupee . The deficiency in the Buckteerpoor market, however , continues , and had it not been for the prompt measures taken in opening the Government golas , there would have probably now been a famine in that part of the district ; as it is , about 2,000 maunds of grain have been disposed of, aud Mr. Manson, the Relief Superintendent, anticipates that all our stores there will be readily purchased before the next rice harvest. Mr. Manson with the zemindars calculates that the rubbee grain cut in those parts will only feed the people for a fortnight ; but as I have been over a good deal of that part of the country myself I consider that this estimate is under- stated. I calculate that the rubbee now cut should supply the Buckteerpoor market for at least two months, particularly as high local prices and scanty carriage will , I hope , induce the owners to sell what they have in the pergunnah instead of exporting it as is generally done in favorable years .

In consultation with Relief Superintendents , I am of opinion that during the fortnight the condition of the people has not materially changed. The poorer classes have not yet returned in any considerable numbers from the rubbee cutting, but the harvest will not last much longer, and the miserable hovels of the low- caste people found in every village will soon be occupied again . I have made inquiries from every one likely to give me information on the subject , and it appears that each person employed as a labourer in cutting the crops , on an average, will bring home about a maund of grain, so that these persons , numbering probably 600,000, will have at least a month's supply to go on with . Indeed , if all goes well with the crops remaining to be gathered during the year, the poorer classes will probably look back on the past time between the rice and the rubbee harvest as the most trying period of the year . The mowah prospects are excellent. Mr. Roberts at Khurrukpore agrees with me in putting it down as a 16 - anna crop , and the mango prospects , although not so good as at first antici- pated, promise fairly. On the whole, the cheena is looking well , but the Indian-corn sown after the February rain looks poor, except where it has been freely irrigated . The early maize will not have any perceptible influence on the price of grain as it is too limited in extent . Mr. Currie, Mr. Baillie, Mr. Money, and their assistant Shah Abdool Hossein , express anxiety for the next three months ; but I think the gigantic efforts which have been taken to give relief wherever necessary should remove all real anxiety as to the future , supposing that prices return to their normal state after the next general harvest . There has fortunately been no rain during the fortnight , and the district has reaped a good rubbee crop under very favorable circumstances . Khalians with piles of grain are now to be seen all over the rubbee country , and the samples of corn , barley, gram , and rahur which I have examined have been excellent; even the oats, which in most years are little better than wild oats , have some little amount of grain within the husk .

Ihave lately sent to the Asiatic Society Museum in Calcutta specimens of 27 kinds of jungle roots and seeds which are largely consumed by the poor people in this district. They were collected by Major Waller during his recent cold- weather tour of police inspection. The native names and manner of cooking them are described , and Major Waller has also recorded his opinion regarding their flavor and general advantages as food . Some of them appear to be highly poisonous unless carefully prepared, and I hope that some one sufficiently learned in botany maybe able to indentify them .

Mr. Roberts , the Assistant Manager at Karakpore, continues to report favourably on the Durbhunga estate at Khurrukpore . He has issued notices inviting persons to apply to him for bonafide tuccavi advances , and on any local distress being reported he at once goes to the place , and if necessary affords work or gratuitous relief. In all the other Court of Wards ' estates and Government estates labour is being provided whenever necessary, but fortunately these are nearly all favorably situated, and require very little assistance . A report just received 430 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

from Mr. Currie shows that since the 1st of Auril , Mr. Wight, Superintendent, Luckhiserai , andhis assistant Nowab Willayet Hossein, have visited 4-4 villages, and that although relief has been givengiven without stint , the total amount given is small . RegardingRegar the country north of Luckhıserai Mr. Currie writes- " The people say they are provided for the next month or six weeks, and here about the Mushurs , &c . , who have returned from the rubbee harvest, say with perfectly happy faces that they have grain for 10 days . They take no thought for the morrow of the 10th day . The sickly smell of mowah is strong round their villages , and that will support them a few days more . I should not be surprised if in a fortnight or three weeks , we had dis- tress rather bad ; the mowah and mango crops may help to eke out a living, but I cannot think they will support the people altogether. For myself I do not know how the people live, yet with the exception of one or two in every village, and six or seven in the large

villages, they seem plump and happy. " I was at Owri on the 1st and found the place in a bad way ; the ground looks as if it had beenfallow; not a grain was got from 1,072 beegahs either of paddy or rubbee. Large tuccavee advances are being taken by the zemindars, but the place is cursed with the bane of this country,-numerous owners of minute shares .

" I have sent grain to the putwari for distribution to some people whose names were taken down."

From the tenor of all the reports received by me, as well as from my own observations, the condition of the district may be stated as follows :-

All who have money to purchase it can get as much grain as they want . The owners of the rubbee grain are well off, and happy in consequence of the high prices . The ryots on the Jumoose rice-country , and those to the north Furkya towards Buckteerpoor , as well as the entire purely labouring population are hard pressed for food, in consequence of high prices . But work can be got byy allall whowho reqrequire it, and actual distress is being relieved by the Gov- ernment officers wherever they find it .

B.-RELIEF WORKS .

Since the commencement of distress in this district , I have done my best to persuade the zemindars and ticcadars to come forward and provide work or money for their ryots wherever necessary . Most of the zemindars have come to me and given an account of what they are doing and intend to do . I have given advances to all who appear to require them under the law for the improvement of estates , and these advances , already amounting to Rs . 40,000 , have certainly taken away a good many laborers from our works . As I have remarked in former narratives, I have been particularly anxious to encourage irrigation works in the dis- tressed parts of the Jumooee sub -division, because since November I have visited nearly every village there, and in each have found signs of departed prosperity in immense silted - up tanks , probably two or three hundred years old, most of which were dry even before, the end of the year. I calculate that the money now advanced in this district will give employment on irriga- tion works to nearly 10,000 people until the rains set in. This and considerable tuccavee advances should do a great deal of good and take off pressure from our relief works .

No Government roads other than those already in hand have been commenced during the fortnight , but I have submitted to the Commissioner a map showing 17 villages where if necessary most useful tanks can be dug out under the Public Works Department , and $ 1 villages where light labor tanks may be dug out under superintendents of circles . These tanks will afford labor to 150,000 persons for two months if necessary . The 300,000 persons lately employed in the poppy fields have not much to do at present, but the six lacs of rupees dis- tributed amongst them by the opium agent should keep them from starving until they can get labor elsewhere either gathering mowah or ploughing their fields as they will do after the first good fall of rain .

The rubbee harvest is drawing to a close, but immense numbers of persons are still in, the fields or at the threshing floors , and I hope they may find employment there for a week or two longer.

The zemindars have not got into the groove yet for submitting returns of laborers pune- tually, but I find that the following number of persons are employed either in wards ' estates or in estates where relief works have cominencedby Government advances:-

RESOLUTION . Monghyr. The supplies in the bazars of the Monghyr district appear to be sufficient, and all who have money can get food ; prices, except in Buktiarpore, are no- where below 11 seers per rupee . The condition of the people generally is unchanged. Village- to-village visitation is going on in the worst tracts , and the people are found to be generally in good case, except in Buktiarpore, where the relieving officer had, at his village visitations , to deal out grain to 350 persons . It is reported that no deaths have occurred from actual star- vation; at the same time it is said , that on a road near Buktiarpore was found the body of an old traveller who must have suffered from want . 2. Relief work can , it is said , be had by all who want it, yet the numbers so relieved are

not large, viz.-

It is explained , however , that the people have not yet come back from their work in the harvest fields. The Magistrate -Collector and the Commissioner must be careful to watch the rubbee country, wherein a considerable quantity of Government grain is already stored, so that they inay be able to declare, as soon as possible , how much of the grain may be held as reserve , available for the wants of more necessitous tracts .

428 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 ..

3. The Lieutenant -Governor agrees for the most part in the views expressed by Mr. Lockwood, in regard to making advances for purchase and storage of grain ; he believes that Collectors and their subordinates exercise an intelligent discretion in the matter. And that being so, public money will go further in advances for purchase of grain, and in advances for land improvements than it could do in any other shape . It is satisfactory to learn that in all cases of advances to ryots , the Monghyr authorities have been able to employ the services , and get the security of superior landholders . At the same time it must be remembered , that where ryots are really in need , advances of grain should by no means be withheld merely because the superior landholders will not come forward to share the responsibility . On this particular point the Lieutenant -Governor does not at all follow the view of the Collector. It ought to be possible to afford some aid to distressed ryots , to sustain life till the new crop shall come in, without causing the abuses and demoralisation which the Collector seems to apprehend .

4. 3,459 maunds of grain have been sold to the public, and about 20 maunds to work- people . 1,367 persons are daily in receipt of relief ; and the relief officer in the worst part is sending grain to distressed villages, and distributing it through the local village agency in amanner which seems to be successful .

5. Bhagulpore. Though the spring harvests have been decidedly good , yet prices have not fallen in Soopole and Muddehpoorah , Nothing is said of the condition of the cheena crop, of which the breadth is said to be beyond anything known in previous years . No ascet- tained cases of famine -death are reported, except that of an infant of thirteen month . The numbers employed on relief works have risen greatly during the fortnight , and are now- On Government relief work

8,300 On Soopole works , under the Court of Wards

25,435

Total

33,735

The number employed on private works seems to be less considerable than in Monghyr.

6. The transport of Government grain has gone on very satisfactorily and efficiently,. except that the supply delivered at the railway stations, was for some days less than the trans- port contractor required . Four lakhs of maunds of Government grain were stored in North Bhagulpore before the end of March . 157 maunds was sold to relief borers , and 340 maunds to the public. The sales to the public appear to have operated satisfactorily , and not to have stopped such private trade as there was . Salesto the public are now beginning at three other places in North Bhagulpore. 1,633 people are in daily receipt of charitable relief' ; many of the applicants are people from Tirhoot. Registers of people for house- to-house reliet are being completed. Zemindars bave taken consideconsiderable advances fornces for helping their ryots ; but it has not been necessary to make direct advances to ryots on any considerable scale.

7. Purneah. The supply of grain in the bazars would seem to be fuller than at the time of last Narrative . The Lieutenant -Governor approves Mr. Kemble's action in stopping sales, to the public at Dengraghat, when he saw that local traders were coming forward to sell ; still we need not regret that sales were temporarily begun, seeing how very low the supply in the bazars at one time fell. On the whole, the condition of the people seems cer- tainly not to have grown, worse during the fortnight , and the information obtained regarding the possession and importation of seed - grainby the Purneah ryots is satisfactory .

8. The Lieutenant-Governor thinks that there is much merit in the plan described by the Collector of advancing grain to village communities , on the collective security of the community; and this method will be suggested for consideration in other districts .

9. The number of people on the relief works has risen greatly during the fortnight, the daily average being now 17,250. Government grain is being sold at 12 out of 16 of the larger relief works ; but the quantities as yet taken are not large . The transport opera- tions in Purneah are well forward . The charitable relief arrangements appear to be working well, and the circle officers are carrying out the rules intelligently. The average number of people in receipt of this form of relief is 2,178 daily. 10. The Sonthal Pergunnah's Narrative has not yet ( 10th April) been received .

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874. 431

C. TRANSPORT OF GRAIN .

I annex a statement shewing the movement of private grain by rail . As mightbe ex- pected, it is inconsiderable . Seeing that there is a vast quantity of grain in the district , and although a very considerable proportion is set aside for exportation, it will not leave the district until the rains finally set in and render the Ganges navigable.

Vast quantities of carts have been attracted here through the agency of Mr. Thomas , the contractor, moving on grain to Northern Bhagulpore. TheThe oonly drawback is that the railway cannot supply grain fast enough , and the cartmen, who are an independent race, go away unless their carts are loaded as fast as they wish . I found great want of grain at Surroop Gita Ghat, where large bodies of men connected with transport are collected, so I sent a petty trader with grain and an assistant to set up a shop at the place at once. The Durbhanga grain also arriving at Monghyr is shipped off at once , and no block of any kind has occurred. I give all parties any assistance which they may require directly it is asked for .

D.- STORAGE OF GOVERNMENT GRAIN .

The only places now to which the Government grain is being moved is to Sondhi and Girna Pursunda between Jamooee and Luckhiserai . It is proposed to store a total of 25,000 maunds at Sondhi and 10,000 , maunds at Girna Pursunda . The gola at Sondhi is nearly ready, and as there was great difficulty in getting materials for building at Girna Pursunda, Iwent to the place myself and got the loan of a good gola , where 8,051 maunds have already been stored. A little addition to this place will give all th give all the accommodation we require . I do not see any reason for changing my opinion, already expressed in former narratives, that unless some unexpected change in the condition of the district takes place, we have sufficient stores of grain to meet any demands on us . Although immense purchases of Monghyr rubbee are being made on all sides for exportation, I think that what will remain, supplemented by our stores , will prevent actual famine in the district. It must also be remembered that I have ad- vanced Rs . 61,000 to private parties for the purchase of grain, and although the first purchases have in many instances been disposed of, the money is being used again to buy more.

There is a considerable amount of Government grain now stored in the good rubbee country. It was stored there before the January rain , at a time when the rubbee prospects were bad. It will not, I think, be quite safe to dispose of this grain yet, but the golagolas are to be sealed up for the present and placed under the least possible establishment.

Arrangements are being made for taking stock of all the golas on the 15th. Copy of circular No. 1828 , dated 26th March, has been supplied to each officer, and I hope that there will be no delay whatever in the matter.

E.-ADVANCES TO PARTIES AND THEIR RESULTS .

The advances for purchase and storage of grain have formed one of the principal and most satisfactory methods of relief in this district. All the money advanced has been received by gentlemen who have not only taken a good deal of interest in the matter, but who have personally seen that the grain is retailed to those who most require it at cost price . Advances to private parties for land improvements form also , I think, an excellent scheme for relief, and although only Rs. 40,690 have been hitherto advanced , the total amount of applications I have received is very great. It is said that some of these advances will not be properly applied, but I am myself of a different opinion, for, besides having put the credit of the applicant and his security to a reliable test, I think that very few persons will consider it worth their while to misuse the money, particularly as the works are visited from time to time by Government officers . Hitherto reports on these works have been very satisfactory , and the zemindars know that if the reports do not continue satisfactory , the full amount advanced with interest will at once be demanded back by me .

Another excellent form of relief is that of tuccavi advances to ryots through zemindars , and here also, although I have only been able to advance Rs . 18,900 as yet , the applications for advances are very numerous . It will be difficult for the landholders to misappropriate the money when they have in each case to furnish lists of the persons to whom the money is advanced .

All the persons to whom I have advanced money are zemindars , ticcadars, or persons who have given full and ample security. I have not made any direct advances to ryots . If once such a course was followed to any extent , it would I think be impossible to prevent the most widespread and demoralizing abuse, besides causing endless trouble and loss to Government.

F.-CHARITABLE RELIEF .

Mr. Currie, the additional sub-divisional officer , reports that during the fortnight '95 villages (names given) have been visited in his sub-division. This number will be largely in- creased during the next fortnight, now that the relief officers are settling down to their work and deputy assistants have been appointed. On reading Mr. Currie's report the most notice- able points are that the poorer classes are still away from their homes cuttting the crops on dearah lands ; that although in almost every village destitute persons are to be found amongst the aged women and children , no deaths from actual starvation have occurred ; that grain is pro- curable in all the bazaars throughout the sub - division , and that although the people at present appear pretty well off, yet considerable anxiety is felt for the time when the temporary relief afforded by the rubbee harvest has worn off. Mr. Currie reports that he has visited several 432 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

works commenced with money advanced by Government, and except in one instance the result was satisfactory . The complaint, however, is general that during the rubbee harvest laborers are procured with difficulty, and , as we have no desire to press labor , I have told all zemindars takingking advances that I am not for the present very anxious to see their works progressing.

I have seen Mr. Money , the Superintendent of the Sheikpura circle , and he reports that there is hardly any perceptible change in the condition of the people during the fortnight ; that the hovels of the poorer classes are still deserted ; only very few persons have returned from their migrations, but that those who have returned have brought back a maund of grain each , which will carry them on for another month at least . Mr. Money gives a good account ofhis assistant Shah Abdool Hossein. This gentleman has an elephant and horses, and he gets over a good deal of ground during the day.

Since his arrival at Buctiarpore on the 11th March , Mr. Manson , Superintendent, has been actively engaged in visiting the villages within his circle, and affording relief wherever necessary. On the whole , I consider this part of the district more distressed than any other , and indeed in two villages, Sitanabad and Hurewa, Mr. Manson found the people so famine- sticken that he was compelled to deal out grain to no less than 350 persons . These persons were chiefly the old and very young of the lowest classes, whose rice crops almost entirely failed. The system followed by Mr. Manson is that which has been generally adopted in the district of sending grain to the village , and dealing it out daily through the most respectable persons in the village . I feel confident that this system will not be abused, and indeed, considering that cach receiver of the Government bounty is registered , and a calculation of the total requirements made, the person to whom the grain is entrusted, even supposing him dishonest , would hardly consider it worth while to appropriate the grain for himself. Most of the villages within the circle have been visited and timely relief afforded. The total amount of persons who have received out-door relief during the month in the Bucktiarpore circle is 741, making a total of 1,156 persons relieved. Mr. Manson has a good active assistant in Baboo Bhola Nauth Dutt, the zemindar of Burowni . An English -speaking deputy assistant, Baij Nauth Sahai , has also joined , so that part of the country is well provided for . There is no doubt that the gigantic exertions we have been making to pass grain into Tirhoot and Bhaugulpore has raised the rates of carriage here, and consequently, private trade at and round Bucktiarpore has not lately been so active as it probably would otherwise have been . I think, however, that whatever damage we may have done has been amply compensated by our sales of grain (and Indian- corn, amounting already to 2,000 maunds , at a fairly cheap rate.

Mr. Mansonduring his tours found by the road -side two miles north of Bucktiarpore the body of an old man who had evidently died, if not from actual starvation at all events from the effects of want. Although Mr. Manson made all possible enquiries , he was unable to learn the man's name or his place of residence ; apparently he was a traveller going north . Mr. Manson also found an infant deserted by its mother, who probably knowing that he would have it taken care of, threw it in his way.

436 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22 , 1874 .

Rules for the guidance of Relief Superintendents .

The poor-houses which have been erected at Monghyr, Jumooe , Begoo Serai , Sikandra, Bucktiarpore will remain under the management of the officer of the circle to which they belong, and all the expenses connected with them will be defrayed from the money at the disposal of the Superintendent . Very few persons have as yet taken advantage of the accommodation afforded,ded, apparently preferring to hang on in their own hovels, however wretched; butut byby degrees ,degrees ,degree particularly when the rains commence, many persons will come in, and a medical officer will , if necessary, be provided for each poor-house . Cooked food will as a rule be distributed at these poor -houses , and each Superintendent will provide any food which appears necessary for the patients from the funds at his disposal.

A sum of one thousand rupees has been placed to the credit of each Superintendent, either at the Government treasuries or at the cutcheries of the nearest banker or zemindar The first persons who should receive the attention of Relief Superintendents are respectable ryots and others who, in consequence of their crops failing, have been reduced to poverty, and who only require small pecuniary assistance for purchasing food to help them over the present season of scarcity. These persons have not an equal chance with common laborers and pro- fessional beggars in the struggle for existence . beggars i

The best plan to provide for these persons is to give them money advances through the zemindar, ticcadar, or mahajun . On arriving at a village the first care of the Superin- tendent will be to ascertain the number and names of such persons, and then call on the zemindar and ticcadar to advance them money at once , say ten or twenty rupees each , according to circumstances . If the landlord pleads inability to advance from his own funds, the Superintendent may advance up to Rs . 200 to any single zemindar , ticcadar, or mahajun , and take from him a bond on plain paper according to the sample furnished . This advance will at once be reported to the Collector, and the amount will be adjusted. If, however, the landlord refuses , or is unable to furnish good security for repayment , special report of his caseshould at once be sent to the Collector for disposal or report to Government under Circular No. dated Such reports, however , will I thinkbe rare, as I have found landlords very willing to make advances where necessary. In the meanwhile, if delay appears dangerous, the Superintendent may advance not more than Rs . 20 either in money or grain to ryots direct , merely taking a note of hand under promise to re- pay the amount whenthe next crop is cut . A respectable jeth ryot may perhaps be induced to stand security for several such persons. Respectable purda-nisheen women might be included in this system of advances, but the Superintendent must be on his guard that he is not imposed on ; he should insist on the women's names being recorded , notwithstanding any alleged breach of etiquette in doing so . If they can be persuaded to re-pay the amount advanced by spin- ning so much the better . A list of persons to whom money is advanced with the amount should be demanded in every case where the advance is made with the Government money, and the Superintendent on visiting the village , without in any way appearing to doubt the probity of the landlord , should ascertain whether the money has actually been advanced or not . Superintendents will find particularly as the season advances in almost every village many persons of low caste who are regarded by their more aristocratic neighbours very much in the same light as the village pigs . These persons have little money and less credit, and as they are the first to die of starvation in times of scarcity, they form the greatest source of anxiety. The able-bodied amongst these races can work, and they should at once be directed to the relief roads and tanks, but those to whom the labor test cannot be applied, must be relieved. It will generally be found useless to tell such persons to go and get cooked - food at our centres . Ihave myself tried the experiment, and found that many of them would probably die on the road.

The only practical method of relief is for each officer either to send or take grain to the villages , and having registered the persons requiring relief leave sufficient food with the head- man to support them until he can visit the village again . The headmau should be treated courteously, and in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred he will readily and faithfully discharge the duty of dealing out the grain daily to the poor. The chowkidar should be called on to attend daily the distribution of food to keep order , and as he will probably be found badly off, he should receive half a seer of rice daily for his trouble. Money for the purchase of salt, dâl , & c . , may , if necessary, be also given .

Superintendents will be careful to enquire regarding the sufficiency or otherwise of seed- grain in each village , and if he finds that reported deficiency cannot be met by small advances through the zemindar, the matter should be reported at once to the Collector , who will see that the necessary supply is given . But I do not anticipate much want in this particular , for I have seen seed grain religiously sealed up even in the most distressed villages .

Each Assistant Superintendent of circles will have a permanent advance of Rs . 50, and as each Assistant is a zemindar of high standing , he should receive the full confidence of the Superintendent, and he be allowed to distribute tickets and money for dall , salt, & c. , to those whom he finds starving in the villages within his circle . He should also bring at once to the notice of the Superintendent any cases where an advance of money can be recommended . Rules regarding light labor relief have already been circulated.

E. LOCKWOOD , Offg. Collertor, SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 487

No. 39 S.R. , dated Bhagulpore, the 7th April 1874 . From- V . T. TAYLOR, Esq. , Collector of Bhagulpore ,

ToThe Secretary to the Government of Bengal, Scarcity and Relief Department .

Ihave the honor to forward my tenth fortnightly narrative .

A.- STATE OF THE COUNTRY.

2. The Soopool sub -divisional officer reports : " There is very little difference between the present supply of food -grains in the various bazars and what it was at the date of the last fortnightly narrative, but on the whole prices of all grain, except wheat and barley, bave an upward tendency, and , contrary to expectation, the harvesting of the rubbee crops has had little or no effect on the general condition of the market ." At Soopool itself rice is selling at 9 seers, and murwa at 12 , and throughout the sub -division prices range, for rice from 9 to 11 seers, and for murwa from 10 to 15 seers .

3. The Muddehpoora officer writes :-" Supplies are more plentiful than they were at the the time of my last narrative, owing chiefly to the sales from the Muddehpoora Government golahs, and from the private stores of Baboo Hurbullub Narain Sing at Sonebursa. Barley was selling at the Sonebursa market at 20 seers the rupee (80 tolahs weight) ; at the Muddeh- poora market , held on the 3rd , clean rice was selling at the rate of 5 pice a seer (64 tolahs weight) , and coarse rice at 4 -or 10 seers 9 chittacks and 11 seers 7 chittacks , standard weight, against 8t the previous week .

4. The Banka officer reports that the supply of food -grains is more abundant in conse- quence of the rubbee harvest, and murwa being available ; the price of rice has remained unchanged, but that of wheat has fallen by 1 to 24 seers , and that of gram has fallen by to 1½ seers; new barley is selling at 221 seers.

5. At the head-quarters there has been a very slight fall in the price of common rice , and a slight rise in the price of wheat .

6. The rubbee harvest is now almost over, and in perguunah Chye and the head- quarters sub -division the crop may be safely put down as a very good one indeed , and above an average crop of ordinary years . In Banka sub- division what rubbee there was has also yielded above an average crop . In Muddehpoora the sub -divisional officer reports an 8-anna crop to the north of his sub - division, but taking the whole sub- division together, I am not wrong in putt- ing it down as a 12 -anna one . The Soopool officer admits a 12 -anna or an average crop . The cheena cultivation, which is far beyond anything ever seen in this district, is not taken into account; it is still in all stages of growth .

7. The mowah is reported as excellent , but the mango crop , it is said, now will not be so good as was at first anticipated (in some parts of the north of the district) . 8. The Soopool officer writes :-" No cases of misery and starvation* have come to light ;

a large proportion (on one occasion, when an account was taken at the centre here, it was found to be nearly 50 per cent . , ) of our paupers are from the Tirhoot district , and most of them are most worthsome objects ; as yet very few others than the very lowest classes , and those who in the best of years would have been to some extent dependent on charity, have been attracted to our relief centres , though I recognise the fact that nothingthat nothing but the most careful village - to -village inquiries and these are now in progress can insure that many fit objects of relief are not holding out in their own houses .

9. The Muddehpoora officer writes :-" I have heard of no new cases of deaths from starvation; in fact, from inquiries made by me during my late tour to the west no starvation is likely."

10. There have been a few deaths at some of the relief contres in the Soopool sub - division which cannot in any way be put down to starvation , and are not to be wondered at when one sees the class of persons who come to them . Mr. Smith says :-" Five out of seven deaths were those of residents of the Tirhoot district , and in most of them I can certify that disease (in many cases of long standing) was the cause, though possibly the end has been accelerated by privation) ." Many of the persons who died had been for a long time in the relief poor-house with a doctor in attendance and properly looked after and fed .

11. There is no actual distress in either the head - quarter nor Banka sub - division . 12. The following statement shows the difference in prices of some of the food- grains now and at the corresponding period of 1866 :-

Two doaths have boon just reported at the Mullarh tank ( Court of Wards) : a child of 13 months from inanition and one of the working coolies The Deputy Collector, Baboo Ram Sunker Sen, says he received the body , and considers starvation to have beon the cause ; but Mr. Duff does not say so. The deceased's wife and three children were working at the tauk as well, and were not new- comers , 438 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22, 1874 .

13. The theft and grain robbery statement for March is annexed .

B.- RELIEF WORKS .

14. I annex a statement showing what has been done under this head during the fort- night, as also one showing the number of persons employed on the Durbhunga Court of Wards' estates in this district . Now that the rubbe harvest is over, an increase may he expected in the number of laborers on all works .

15. Some 157 maunds 23 seers of grain have been actually sold to laborers on the relief roads, and arrangements are being made to have rice for sale on every work , so that those at work may have the option of purchasing it in preference to other grains in the bazars .

16. As regards the works being carried on by private individuals or zemindars, it is next to impossible to procure any information as to the total number or daily average of persons employed. Baboo Hurbullub Narain Singh is the only honorable exception, and is the only man who shows he is taking a real interest in what he has undertaken, and the only one who voluntarily supplies any information ; he has in hand one bandh , eight tanks, and what he calls miscellaneous work ; he shows a total number of 7,421 men, women, and children employed. There are other works being undertaken , but Mr. Kirkwood remarks he is afraid none with any vigour ; they are carried on by fits and starts ; payments, whether in cash or in kind, very irregular; and in the case of Mr. John Christian, who has undertaken an extensive work in the shape of bandhs, he writes-" Mr. Christian has a bandh in progress near Bungaon , but the wage given appears very inadequate for all but the sturdiest laborers ." The fact is, that none of the zemindars have attempted to raise their rates when we did on our works . Though it is almost impossible to get any statement approaching to accuracy from any private works , yet it is satisfactory to know that works of this kind are being carried on, and a certain number of persons, however small , being benefited thereby .

C.- TRANSPORT OF GRAIN .

17. At the Bhagulpore railway station but little has been done during the fortnight in the way of imports or exports . The exports were only 6,949 maunds , of which 571 were Vocal, and the rest 1,947 maunds wheat and 4,431 oats , to Howrah . The imports were about $6,000 maunds only, the chief being 1,362 maunds Indian- corn, 491 maunds wheat , 1,188 haunds gram, 891 maunds rice, aud 975 maunds paddy; about 292 maunds of rice were import- ed at the Pointee station, 574 at Colgong, 28 at Ghogha, and 729 at Sultangunge, exclusive of Government rice . The exports were almost nothing .

18. There is but very little private importation going on, and nothing is heard now of exportation from the interior of the district ; there is a small amount of private importations in the north from Monghyr .

D.-STORAGE OF GOVERNMENT GRAIN .

20. The Phoolout route is closed , and the two contractors are carrying away the grain from Jugdis Chuck and Monghyr very rapidly.

21. Mr. Smith has been sending rice from the Soopool golahs as fast as he can, and all the outlying golahs will now soon have their full allotment .

22. It will be seen that about 1,20,000 have been stored during the fortnight , and over four lakhs stored in all , and it is possible that more has been actually stored in some places than I have as yet received intimation of ; some grain has reached Pachgachia, but I have not heard how much .

E.- ADVANCES TO PRIVATE PARTIES .

No further loans were granted during the fortnight under Act XXVI of 1871 .

Rs. 5,000 have since been sanctioned by the Commissioner for payment to Mr. Bowers .

Rs . 5,000 have been advanced to the municipality under Government orders No. 1242, dated 4th March 1874, and only Rs. 200 to a petty shop- keeper for purchase of grain from the nearest bazars .

440 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

F.- CHARITABLE RELIEF .

23. All the circles in this district referred to in my previous narrative are now officered, and it is unnecessary for me to rewrite the details .

24. Under this head sales to the public may be properly dealt with . As mentioned in paragraph 36 of the last fortnightly narrative , arrangements were made to sell to the public at the rate of 12 seers for the rupee, in quantities not greater than one maund, nor less than one rupee's worth ; from the Ekar and Bhowanipore golahs at the head -quarters of circles of the sam names But Mr. Kirkwood writes, owing to the delay in receipt of the letters (the moving about) the sales from Ekar and Bhowanipore could not commence before the 4th April . The results will be fully detailed in the next narrativo.

25. 1 considered it advisable to open the Muddehpoora golah , as rice was only, so it was alleged, procurable in the bazars at 8t to 9 seers the rupee . Orders were issued to this effect, and the result is thus reportedby Mr. Kirkwood : " The effect of the sales at Muddehpoora has been as may have been anticipated , the price current in the bazar has fallen from 9 to 11 seers per rupce, and 11 seers is now the retail rate" (see Mr. Martin's remarks, para . 3 ) ; " but it is only the very poor who buy at that rate , all who can club together to make up a rupee, buy at the golah . The sales at Muddehpoora during the five days ending 3rd April show 597 purchasers of 340 maunds 19 seers, at 12 seers the rupee . All the proceeds , except Rs . 595-15 realized on the 2nd and 3rd , have been paid into the treasury; that amount has not been paid in as the treasury was closed . As on the first day only 25 maunds were sold, we have 315 maunds, or an average of 79 per diem, for the other days."

26. The rule as laid down by me originally and approved by the Commissioner, was that not more than 100 maunds should be sold in any one day, and not more than one maund or less than one rupee's worth to be sold to any one person. I further added a restriction that no person purchasing one maund should purchase any more for 30 days ; this restriction was objected to on the ground that a person with a largealarge family could not live on amaund a month ; though this may be the case, my own idea was that the purchaser of one maund of rice could easily supplement his purchase with murwah and other cheaper grains . Mr. Kirkwood, moreover, remarks :-" A rule that no man is to buy more than a maund a month is of course practically defeated every hour ; such a rule, it may safely be asserted, is one impossible of enforcement ." ,

27. There cannot be any doubt that great difficulty will be experienced in preventing the system of sales to the public being abused ; but with the quantity of grain we shall have stored in this district , if the rice thus sold gets into the hands of those for the benefit of whom the sales are intended , there will not be many persons left to be gratuitously relieved.

28. The golahs of Ekar and Bhowanipore are now open, and I am now issuing orders for sales from Soopool .

29. In the Muddehpoora sub - division there are two circles only, and the undermentioned five relief centres are open, viz. , Muddehpoora, Byjnathpore , Ghylar , Gummeria, and Sone- bursa. The average number of persons gratuitously relieved at each is given by Mr. Kirkwood thus :-

16 Muddehpoora

31 Byjnathpore

5 Ghylar

Gummeria

19 Sonebursa

30. These relief centres will be removed altogether as soon as the house - to - house relief system is in full operation, and a very fair commencement has been made in this direction . Poor-houses will take their place , and are already in course of erection at Kamp and Bhowani- pore, the head -quarters of the circles . These will have a doctor attached, and all the houseless, poor beggars , lepers , and other diseased and miserable objects will be collected and properly looked after; deaths may be expected to occur among them, but such deaths of such objects cannot be called deaths from starvation .

31. Mr. Kirkwood reports : "At some of the golahs , notably those at Bhowanipore and Ekar, considerable numbers of light laborers have been employed on earth - work , rope- twisting , &c . At Ekar, too, about 800 people have been daily relieved by receipt of pice in exchange for baskets of grass as fodder for cattle ; these were nearly all women and children . He adds- "No regular relief has as yet been issued to these people ; the registers for house - to -house relief are in course of preparation. Urgent cases of distress here and there have been relieved by money gratuity."

32. In the Muddehpoora sub -division five ryots have been advanced Rs . 72 for the pur- chase of grain and seed , and four more applications had been received, not yet dealt with .

34. Most of these , again , it is hoped , will be closed as soon as the house- to-house regis- ters are complete and the poor-houses ercoted; these have been commenced at Soopool, Ekar , and Burgaon , and also at Nawabakkur and Simrahi . At Soopool 50 per cent . of those relievod are from Tirhoot ; and Mr. Kirkwood found many of those relieved at Bungaon unfit recipients of entirely gratuitous relief ; these were sent off to work .

35. Mr. Smith , the Soopool Sub - Divisional Officer , remarks : " The tract to the west along the Tiljooga is undoubtedly the worst off, and will doubtless be the only truct where, at all events for some time, general distress may be expected . It is , however , the object of special attention, and fortunately the population is very thin . The careful diaries of Mr. Fanshawe, the Soopool circlercle officer, shoshow that he is working exceedingly well, always on the move , and constantly visiting village after village , and I think with care and a little system , we have not much to fear as regards this circle.

36. About 157 maunds 23 seers of grain have been sold on the Government relief works; the laborers, as a rule, supplied themselves from the markets, but in the case of the Durbhunga Court of Wards' tanks , a system had been commenced of payment of grain ; this was considered objectionable, especially, as Mr. Smith remarks, as it amounted to little short of gratuitous distribution to all applicants without any attempt at getting any return for it ; and payment in cash has been ordered, the laborers being at liberty to purchase Government rice, which is ready for them .

37. Spinning and weaving have not yet been commenced , but cotton has already reached Soopool and Muddehpoora ample for a fair start in this direction .

No. 1451F . , dated Purneah , the 7th April 1874 .

From- W. KEMBLE , ESQ . , Magistrate and Collector , Purneah , To-The Secretary to the Government of Bengal , Calcutta.

Ihave the honor to submit herewith my fortnightly narrative for the period ending Suturday, the 4th April 1874 .

Narrative of Scarcity and Relieffor the fortnight ending the 4th April 1874 .

A. During the fortnight I have visited Arrareah, Dengra, Kusda Amour, Bulrampore , Barsoe, and Kudba .

At Barsoe, where from reports I had been led to believe that there was a serious deficiency of grain in the market , I found a good supply, several boats laden with rice, kullai , & c. , had come up the river, and the quantity not only of grain but also of sugar, fish , &c. , was abundant . In this neighbourhood I also found that the villagers had generally a good supply of seed-grain. Prices at Barsoe hât-

Mustard was selling at Rs . 3-2 a maund, and was being taken away in the boats which had brought up the rice ; dried fish was being sold for export to Rungpore and Dinagepore at Rs. 16 a bundle ; and sugar, brought from those districts , was sold at Rs . 3-2 a maund . Private trade being so active here , I did not avail myself of Sir Richard Temple's permission to sell Government grain to the public . Matters are looking brighter near Kudba owing to private

trade, the good rubbee in the south, and the relief afforded by Government works . At Bulrampore the people have a larger stock of grain than in any other part of the district I have visited as distressed; they have no rubbee, and consequently will feel the pressure more later on . Mr. Meeklejohn and Captain Jumes are organising relief measures here.

At Dengra and Kusba Amour there is less private trade than in other parts , but the scarcity is beginning to encourage private enterprise here as elsewhere . A cloth merchant of Kissengunge has opened a large store on the banks of the river , and keeps his supply up by small boats. In this neighbourhood I last fortnight authorised the sale of Government rice . Mr. Gouldsbury sold 10 maunds at Rata hât , and Mr. Wyer 16 maunds at Mathour, and 107 maunds 11 seers at Ootri , 15 seers per Burma and 12 seers Bengal. The consequence of this was that on the next hat day, at Rata and Mathour, not a single private trader appeared. I consequently reduced the rates to 12 seers , and forbid the sale of Government grain at the public hats. This has restored confidence , and the baparees are now buying as fast as ever from the Purneah bazar from the merchants who import it from Caragola.

I have directed the relief officers at Dengra and Kusba Amour to sell at 12 seers and 10 seers at their relief centres on fixed days ; and after inquiry , to village communities, or group of villages, not more than 100 maunds is sold at each circle until further orders . In villages, when the people are badly off, grain is advanced on credit , the village community 448 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

giving a joint bond for the repayment of the advance . This system works capitally, it keeps the people in food, it allows them to spend their money on seed, which is procurable in nearly every hat, and is being imported largely from the north , and it enables us to distribute our grain at no cost at a time when carriage is available . Mr. Wyer at sudder has worked this system, and found that it succeeds better than any other, the people like it, and it is far better than making them advances in money, except in places (which are , in my opinion, very few) where there is no seed -grain to be had.

In most villages the well - to - do ryots have seed -grain which they are ready to advance to their poorer neighbours if they see any prospect of being repaid . An advance of Govern- ment grain for food on joint security, or its sale in some cases , prevents the seed -grain from being eaten, keeps the poorer people in their homes, and enables them to cultivate their fields . The brisk trade in seed-grain is a good sign. At head -quarters there has been a rise in the prices, but this is owing almost entirely to a large quantity of coarse rice brought up by a few traders being nearly all consumed. There has been no great general rise in prices , as the price currents sent up would lead one to suppose . Private traders as well as Government have suffered from the inability of the railway company to supply carriage. Mr. Rattray from Arrareah reports prices much easier. Rice was selling in the north of his sub -division at 98, and 10 seers at Turkeli, and wheat at 124. The rubbee crop up here has been first- rate .

Mr. Cravenreports from North Kishengunge that if Government Burma grain were offered at 12 seers to the people, they would not take it, as rice was selling there at 12 and 13 seers the rupee, and throughout the sub -division there had been a general fall in prices from 14 to 2 seers the rupee .

Here, as elsewhere , rain is now wanted for the rice sowings , and for the kauni and cheena. Mr. Craven however reports that the lower classes are beginning to show signs of distress , and that beggars are increasing . This is the case everywhere, but the relief afforded by our works, and by the charitable committee , will, I hope , prevent any severe distress being felt. During the fortnight three deaths have occurred at our relief- houses , two at Barsoe and one at Kusba . I inquired into those at Barsoe myself, and found that both the deceased had been sufferers for some time from disease , and that their deaths could not be attributed to want; they had both for some weeks been inmates of the poor-house . The case at Kusba Amour was of the same description.

We have now native doctors at all our circles , except Bahadurgunge, who will be of great use in treating these cases of diseases, which are, in the present time of scarcity, brought so prominently to our notice . Mr. Craven reports that he notices that much charitable relief is given in every village by well- to -do Mahomedans , and this is, I believe, the case everywhere, and amongst Hindoos also .

The most unfavorable symptom I have to report this fortnight is the frequency of fires, which both Messrs . Rattray and Craven assert are the work of incendiaries ; from enquiries which I had made myself I think they are right . It seems that these fires generally occur in some village where there are a number of fairly - stocked golahs . In Belgachi , Saifgunge , Kusba, and Raneegunge, and in many other places , there have lately been large fires .

Zemindars are at last getting alive to the necessity of helping their ryots . Aga Saifulla Khan is making advances near Kusba Amour, where they are wanted, and I have advanced to a good many putneedars in Kishengunge .

Of the crops at present much cannot be said as the rubbee is all cut . The number of grain-thefts amounts to 26 during the fortnight. The value of the property stolen is Rs. 167-4 . This is not very alarming. B.

The progress return of Mr. Cordner is annexed . I have during the past fortnight been with him over the greater part of his roads , making arrangements to enforce some task from the large numbers of all able -bodied men who flock now to our works . I have no doubt that thiswill soon be managed ; it is everywhere found that the village people soon get accustomed to use the kodali and prefer contract work . A few beldars , who under orders should have been drafted off to the north road, have been allowed to remain on each work , as they distribute themselves among the villagers , serve as duffadars , and teach them to measure . Under orders from the Commissioner, for women, children, and others who cannot do a fair day's work, employment will be provided by the relief officer on petty works .

The number of persons employed on these last is increasing . The returns do not show all the persons relieved by road- work, as considerable sums of inoney have been given out for village roads which have been made by villagers , who cannot be got to send in return of laborers. I have sent up this week a map showing all the works opened or proposed , except petty village roads , including sites selected for tanks , in case there should be a greater demand for employment than our roads can satisfy. This , however, is not likely to be the case, while I trust that we shall be able to finish the work laid out. Huts have been built at each work but are not patronised by the workmen.

Mr. Rattray pays his coolies in grain, at 15 seers the rupce for Burma rice , to the amount of their daily earnings . The average number of laborers engaged on the Department Public Works works by last return is 14,669 , and on the relief officers' petty works 2,587 ; this gives a total of 17,250 . Grain is now sold on all the works at 12 seers and 15 seors, which is above the rate at which it is sold to the villagers .

It is not necessary to copy here the returns which have already gono up ; the above figures differ from them, andthem, and slightly, as the latter did not includo 64 persons employed on roads and 140 on tanks at Assaragurh by Mr. Craven, and 9 employed by Mr. McQueen . The last - named gentleman's figures , which include no women or children , show that in Dhurum- pore the demand for work is far less than in other parts of Purneah .

C. Ihave not received any return from Caragola this week to show me the quantity of private grain imported . From reports in the bazar I fear it has fallen off a little, owing doubtless to the same cause which brought about the stoppage in the importation of Govern- ment grain last fortnight.

The means of transport have not failed as in the district yet, nor is it likely that any difficulty on this head will arise . Private trade continues as active in the south - east of the district as ever . The Morung authorities have either found that they have some spare grain across the border, or they are not so vigilant to prevent smuggling as they were, as Mr. Craven reports that rice is being brought in for sale ; he also reports large quantities brought from Julpigorce .

Mr. Mulock's note on the golah and carting arrangements is annexed.

All the golahs are being or have been leeped , and special arrangements made to protect them from fire at Saifgunge . Last week, when half the bazar was burnt down all round them , the golahs were preserved . I hope soon to have arrangements complete for distributing the grain to the villages and smaller golahs .

During this fortnight 4,727 carts left Caragola carrying 27,267 bags , or 54,534 maunds of grain. This is an average of 389 carts per day , a great falling off from our former averages . This is caused by the causes mentioned in the last narrative,ve, namenamely , the sudden running short of our stores of grain at Caragola, and the consequent impression among the carters that no more grain was coming to the district . Our liberal rates , however, are again drawing them back, and Mr. Munro writes that he expects to have carted away five lakhs of maunds from Caragola before Thursday next .

All the golahs for the reception of Government grain are being fast completed, and the sub -divisional relief officers are looking after their construction ; sites have been chosen at Kooti , Rudail , and Azimgunge ; the three new golahs decided on. The new golahs at Palankof and Sirsee are completed.

Preparations are being made for the general stock- taking on the 15th current . I have dis . tributed personally the forms to eight goladars , and thoroughly explained the principle of the accounts and forms ; and Mr. Craven, who was in the station on Saturday, took away the forms for eight more to explain to his chowkeedars . It will be very difficult to have European- officers present at all the golahs, but at Dingra, Turkeli , Mutiari , Kishengunge , Bahadurgunge, Kusba Amour, Bulrampore, Barsoe, Kudba, and Purneah , I expect to be able to have European officers to check the stock - taking . In any golah where the amount at stock - taking is stated to be much less than our register shows , it will be necessary to have a European officer deputed to recount the bags . The coolies who take out the grain willbe paid in grain, which will be more acceptable than money, and will obviate the necessity of sending large sums of money to the goladars. Ihave received 38 bales of 30 - suer gunny bags from the Allipore Jail , which I have distributed , with 4 packing needles and 2 maunds of twine , to all the principal golahs .

E. The advances to private parties have this fornight been small , amounting only to Rs . 3,000 to two persons, Gopaul Sing and Udhan Mull , for purchase of grain , and Rs . 3,000 to Srikant Jha and Aga Saifulla Khan to help their ryots .

The last- named gentleman has , however, asked for Rs . 3,000 more , which I have recoin- mended shall be given .

Advances have been made by relief officers to ryots and others , but I much prefer to help the poorer classes of people by advancing food -grain to them, and thus prevent themfrom

eating their sced, which they would have to do in many cases if not helped . I hope that the example set by Aga Saifulla Khan would have been more generally followed , and trust yet that it willbe .

Since the end of the fortnight under review further advances have been made .

Charitable relief has been generally and freely given throughout the district . The report of Mr. Wyer , the relief officer, submitted a few days ago, was very incomplete, as the sub- divisional officers had not fully understood that their reports were to go to him .

I can from personal inquiry state that the relief officers are generallyenerally actively engaged works is known in their work, and I am sure that the existence of relief centres and relief works i in everyvery corner of the district , and that if any person in want does not get relief it is his own fault . Mr. Wyer, at head-quarters , has visited most of the villages in the distressed part of the sub -division ; he has advanced money for seed to those ryots whose landlords would not help them, and has, under my orders , sold and advanced grain to villagers where the need of such help was apparent ; he has not given any reliefby cooked food.

Mr. Thornton and Mr. Gouldsbury , at Dingra and Kusba Amour , have been very active iu giving out twine and cotton and jute , and in arranging circles of villages for the sale and distribution of grain .

Mr. Perry , at Kusba, has been more active in opening out road and tank work ; he finds but few applicants for relief at poor-houses . He and the Dengra and Kusba Amour relief officers work the ticket system very successfully, and check the lists . The active and intelligent way in which Lieutenant Thornton has taken to this work, which is quite new to him , is very creditable .

Mr. Craven, at Kishengunge, and Mr. Bertleson , at Bahadurgunge , are working on the ticket system, and are opening a number of useful works both in roads and tanks . Some bunds for irrigation purposes have been taken in hand by Mr. Bertleson. Both these officers SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22,1874 453

have done well in looking after the larger Department Public Works works in their circles ; they have been directed to open more petty relief works .

Mr. Rattray, at Arrareah , has started a very large number of petty roads , and has worked the ticket system fairly ; but I fear that he has been too indiscriminate in his charity.

Instead of advancing cotton and twine to indigent persons for spinning , he has advanced a large sum in cash for the purpose, he explains , of enabling such persons to buy the raw materials . The plan I cannot approve and have stopped .

The average number of persons , according to the last return , who are in receipt of cha- ritable relief, is 2,178. This is far below the real number .

The return does not include persons in receipt of relief by spinning, and has not been reccived from some centres at all . Regular rules and tables for returns about which up till lately there has been some misunderstanding have been sent out now . The rules are based on those circulated in Tirhoot .

Dated Camp Sibpore, the 8th April 1874 .

From-A. BOSWELL, Esq. , Offg . Deputy Commissioner of Sonthal Pergunnahs , To The Offg . Secretary to the Government of Bengal , Statistical Department.

I have the honor to submit a narrative for the fortnight ending 5th April 1874 .

2. For the last fortnight I have been travelling fast, and never staying more than three days in any place. I have left my office all behind me, and have found it necessary to sacrifice report -writing considerably.

3. I. Supplies are not said to have failed anywhere . Food is reported plenty in the Deoghur sub-division, except at head- quarters , where the demand is very great ; it is surprising that a resort of beggars and devotees like Baidzanath has not fur- nished a good deal of distress before this .

4. InGodda the laborers are chiefly supplied from the Government golah at Doi .

5. It is impossible to say whether the local markets would have stood the strain or not unhelped.

6. Anyhow there is food for the people, and they are able to get it .

7. I have not heard from Rajmehal .

8. There is a considerable quantity of rice stored in Sultanabad; but the mahajuns are unwilling to sell, wishing to force up prices . It is likely enough we shall have to import a little to prevent prices rising too high .

10. The cheapest rice is 144 seers at Patrol. The cheapest food is 30 seers of barley at Pakauri . Prices are generally steady, with slight local fluctuation .

11. III . An agent of the Rajah of Sultanabad has 6,000 maunds of rice stored at Pakauri .

The Rajah has a good deal of rice stored at Maheshpore . Six mahajuns in the neigh- bourhood are believed to be holding up considerable stores for famine prices.

12. IV. On Friday last there was rain with hail from Maheshpore to about 6 miles west. I do not know how far north or south it spread.

18. The hail damaged the mango crop a good deal . The rain has helped ploughing much . I have not received any registered rainfall.

14. The mohwa flowers are the chief crop coming in now. I am sorry that the last weekly weather and crop return but one gave a misleading account. It was made up at Doomka, where some of the trees were late in flowering .

15. I have myself seen mohwa trees in full flower from Benajarhia to Doomka and Maheshpore , and I have heard of the crop from Deoghur and the Hendwa pergunnah . It is quite first - rate nearly everywhere, and is had nowhere . The best is so good that the whole crop may be put down as excellent. I have breakfasted on boiled anohwa flowers, and I can say that they are wholesome and valuable food.

16. The mango crop is not so good, and the kend trees are promising badly .

17. I find that, beside the flower, the mohwa fruit yields an edible seed , with oil .

18. There is no ordinary rubbee in any part of the south of the district. I have heard of about 200 beeghas of good grain in Sultanabad, and literally nothing else .

19. The Godda report gives no details of the rubbee crop .

20. In Deoghur sugarcane is doing well .

21. People look well everywhere . I have seen one half- starved boy of about 7. His parentswere beggars, who died about two months ago . He is a dome by caste, and has no rela- 456 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874 .

tions . He came to show himself to me. He was very thin. His ribs could be counted, and the big lean joints showed out the miserable leg and arm bones . He had been living on scraps from door to door since his parents died. I gave him in charge to a comfortable Brahman . This I should think must count as a case of actual distress .

22. One man has died, and another man is said to be dying near Maheshpore from com- bined disease and poverty.

23. The wonder is that we have not heard of dozens of such cases, as they are constantly occurring all over the world .

24. I was for three days at Benagurhia with Mr. Børresen, the missionary, last week.

25. The complaint is, that the people are nearly at the end of their stores, and that there is danger of great distress once the rains begin.

26. If people are going to starye six weeks hence, their being well and hearty now won't alter the fact. But it is impossible to trust the accounts the people give of their own condition. This is one of the greatest difficulties we have to fight against . The first answer to any inquiry is always, " our crops all died ; we have nothing ; the Sarkar is our father and mother ; if the Sarkar helps us we may escape. " This is the refrain to nearly every song all over the district . When pressed to give details the people let out that their case is by no means so bad . They admit that they had very uneven crops ; that most villages had a share of good and bad luck .

27. In the hill country west of Benagurhia there was fair maize, and a little good rice . The population is thin, and mowah trees are plenty. In spite of some complaints I consider this regionsafe.

28. The people of the plains or rolling country of Dari Maleshwar are much worse off. The villages are thicker and larger than in the hills ; the people trusted more to rice and lost more.

29. They are coming in great numbers to works I opened in concert with Mr. Børresen last week . But they are in excellent condition so far . The men are strong and the girls tall and good-looking. I did not see a thin, weak frame, or a woe-begone face among a thousand laborers.

The cattle also are in good case .

30. Still , it would be very wrong to let such appearanees mislead. In about six weeks the first rains maybe looked for ; the people must plough their land , and they must be able to live while they have to be engaged on work which does not bring them in their food for the day.

31. As has been long foreseen by every one, the time of greatest difficulty will be from June to September, when men must be ploughing their fields , or there will be no crop next year; when transport will be most difficult, and when the last grain of the old harvest will be eaten, possibly before the first of the new harvest is eatable. Sontals would be merry, and eat full meals up to their last handful of maizo .

32. Therefore about Benagurhia and Dari Maleshwar generally, I say the people are still in very good condition . Scarcity up to this has not affected them, but I believe the accounts of their short supplies to be truc. They will not get so much mowah as the people in the hills . They are much more numerous in an equal area.

33. Supplies in the local markets are believed to be nearly sufficient . I have , with the help of the missionaries, opened relief works which I mean to extend.

34. A gentleman who lives in the neighbourhood , and who trades in country produce, has engaged with me to buy any required quantity of rice from the Government, and sell it to the laborers at the prescribed rates .

35. I think by working one day on a road or a tank , and another day on his own field , the poor cultivator will be able to puil through .

36. The poor laborers will also pull through , because, though their resources are less than the cultivators, they cau give all their time to immediately paying work.

37. I should not like to try to give a more minutely accurate description than this of the condition of the people of Darı Maleshwar, and 1 think this will do to work on.

38. I am just now in the middle of Sultanabad, about which I had heard alarming reports . Mr. Wood has been here for some time, and I have had the very great advantage of meeting him .

39. I saw a good deal of this country in November, I reported then that the rice crop was most uneven, but that I thought it averaged 8 annas . I am not able now to say whether the estimate was right or wrong . I can only say that the people's own accounts of their condition are ridiculously untrustworthy. I give an instance. In November I was going through a village . I was talking to my mabawal ; we were admiring some magnificent rice that was growing along a deep khal full of water . The khal ran winding almost like a tangled rope, and for a considerable distance on each side for a long stretch of the khal this very fine rice was growing. The uplands had not been ploughed . The village was not large , and a SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 457

number of the villagers stood looking at my elephant . I said to them, " the whole country is going to ruin . What about you ?" They answered laughing , " we are all right, we have got our's safe." A week ago I passed through the same village , and I was told that not a grain of rice had been saved. The water in the khal is not dry yet . Cows drink it and buffaloes lie in it .

40. The tenants of Sultanabad are not on good terms with their landlord . They are constantly asking me what the Sarkar is going to do , and they are inclined to convene meetings to make proposals, and hear news .

41. The Rajah of Malheshpore has promised to spend Rs. 5,000 borrowed , and Rs. 2,000 of his own money on tanks and bands. Work has already been begun on a very good line of road and on several tanks .

42. I consider that relief works are necessary in Sultanabad, and , as I have already said , we shall probably have to import some rice.

43. In Maheshpore laborers are refusing task - work . Daily-labor attracts many hundreds of persons, who like pay for lazy work . Number rolls of day-laborers are apt to mislead.

44. Crimes does not appear to be increasing.

45. Yesterday I received the district progress report, which I have to submit in original as I am alone in the interior, without a clerk .

46. In additionto the works reported in this sheet , I opened work last week by the kind help of Mr. Bærresen on a tank and a band near Benagurhia . I gave Mr. Bærresen Rs . 1,000 to carry on the work . In four days the number of laborers increased from 200 to 1,100 , almost all Sontals .

47. Mr. Meara has opened work on the Bario and Pratapore road , but finds that laborers will not come to it . They prefer the Barahat road . This requires investigation .

on a road and on tanks 48. As I have said, the people of Sultanabad are working on selectedby Mr. Wood . These works will now come on the regularregular list.

49. I have nothing of importance to report .

50. I have nothing to report. I have not received details from Doi , our only working golah . I have not received sufficient information from Rajmehal to make any report .

51. As I have said, Rajah Gopal Chundra Singh Bahadoor, of Maheshpore, is borrowing Rs . 5,000 for tanks , of which he is going to begin twenty immediately.

460 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874 .

RESOLUTION.

SCARCITY AND RELIEF DEPARTMENT .

Calcutta, the 14th April 1874 .

READ-

The fortnightly narratives for the Rajshahye Division , for the period ending 4th April . Moorshedabad. The effect of the reaping of the rubbee crop is perceptible in the markets of this district , for though rice is a little dearer, averaging 121 seers per rupee, wheat and gram are at 17 and 18 seers , and other grains cheaper .

2. As before reported , it is only the begging and indigent non-laboring classes that are suffering from actual want, and to whom it has been found necessary to give gratuitous relief. For the laboring classes , work is provided , and is readily taken where the pressure is at all severe. Difficulty is said to be felt in undertaking tank- work for want of a supervising agency. It is thought that the headmen of villages cannot be trusted with the disbursement of money on this account without a tolerably active supervision . The Lieutenant- Governor thinks that this difficulty is exaggerated . It is hoped that the arrangements recently made , under the Com- missioner's orders , forrs , for dividing the district into circles , with an officer in charge of cach, will make it easy to introduce this form of relief more freely where required.red . The Lieutenant- Governor was prepared, from his own knowledge, to find the necessity of such circles in the western half; but he hopes that in any case a full cirole organisation will not be found neces- sary in the eastern half ; that is on the east of the Bhagirattee river. If however the Collector thinks that it does , then the Lieutenant - Governor will be glad to receive a special report .

3. The average number of persons on relief works daily, is 3,464 . The daily number receiving charitable relief is 379. It is stated that the manufacture of jute-cordage has proved auseful form of light -labor , and more popular than thread - making . The relief committees of other districts may, perhaps, try this . Government grain when sold to an independent relief committee need not continue to be shown as Government grain.

4. Rajshahye. Though prices are easier here, owing to private importations, than they have been for some time, the failure of the silk crop which is now reported, will , it is to be feared, cause much distress than would otherwise have been avoided. The district has, however , been divided into circles under the Commissioner's orders , and a careful watch must be kept upon the condition of the poorer classes . The average number of laborers on relief works had risen to 6,587 in the first week of the fortnight. The return for the last week is not sub- mitted. 185 persons daily receive charitable relief at poor-houses, but these returns are also incomplete.

5. Madah . The Collector notes a marked decrease in the supply of rice and paddy in the local markets . Prices are nowhere less than 11 seers per rupee, and go as high as 9 seers . Wheat and other rubbee grains are however coming in, and helping to relieve this extreme pressure . The rubbee harvest has fortunately been above the average. Seed for the bhadoi dhan sowings has been procurable, though at very high rates, and a much greater area than usual has been laid down . 6. Mr. Alexander thinks the condition of the people getting worse by degrees , and now anticipates that village-to- village inspection will be necessary; arrangements for this seem to have been made . The Lieutenant- Governor observes that this process can only be necessary in the tracts on the west banks of the Muhanuddee and its affluent. It can hardly be required in the tract between the Ganges and the Muhanuddee. If it be, however , the Lieutenant- Governor would be glad to receive a special report. In the very bad parts, the increase in the number of ordinary villagers coming for cooked -food to the depôts , indicates the growth of distress. It is not, however, understood why these people should receive cooked- food; they should be set to work on relief works . 3,160 persons daily find employment on relief works , while 684 are receiving charitable relief.

7. Dinagepore.-Mr. Lowis' report is as usual full and interesting . Rain is much re- quired in this district to enable the ryots to complete the sowing of the light lands for the bhadoi crop, and to plough up the heavier soils . The Collector believes that seed -grain exists in the country in sufficient quantity , though the prices of it will range high . He proposes to put some pressure on the zemindars to induce them to assist ryots who have no means of their own to purchase seed. Probably it will be found that the zemindars will do this readily enough for their own sakes, if the grain exists . But it is right to devote constant attention to the matter. It is, as Mr. Lowis says, better for Government to avoid direct dealings with the cultivators , and get the zemindars to perform their natural duties .

8. The facts related by the Collector confirm the conclusion to which he had already come, that the general stocks of the district are now fast failing , Fortunately the Government riceis available in sufficient quantity to meet all distress . 9. The numbers on relief works have risen to 74,806 .

10. Transport is working smoothly and well . The Collector would like to take 40,000 maunds more vid Dingraghat , in addition to the 1,50,000 already sent through Purneah, but the present arrangements cannot be again disturbed, and the East Indian Railway cannotbo further burdened. It is to be hoped the Collector may find the forms , of the stock accounts less complicated than he expects them to prove. 11. The arrangements for charitable relief are complete 1,791 persons were receiving this form of aid .

461 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22 , 1874.

12 Rungpore. The Rungpore report is on this occasion sufficiently lengthy, and gives a very fair idea of the state of the district , and the local distribution of distress. It might, however, with advantage have been more condensed . The worst tract is that in the south by Govindgunge, where village inspection has disclosed even greater distress than was anticipated. In some parts the people have been reduced to something approaching extremity, though no deaths are reported . It is hoped that the Collector can show that he has from the first exercised sufficient vigilance in this respect. The Lieutenant-Governor warns him most earnestly , both as to the present and the future . No shortcoming in this vital respect can be overlooked or per- mitted. Relief measures seem now to be on an efficient footing ; work is provided; advances are being made to zemindars and jotedars for their ryots , while the latter eagerly watch the due application of the sums so lent by Government . 13. The total number on relief works is not given . They are said to be much the same as before, except in Govindgunge , where about 10,000 people are on the roads . Last narra- tive showed 3,465 laborers for the whole district .

14. The transport of grain is said to be going on smoothly , though complaints are made thatprivatetradetrade isis interinterfered with by the Government demand for carriage. It can hardly be the case that a district like Rungpore should feel seriously the withdrawal of 653 or even 1,000 carts . The special report of the burning down of a Government rice golah will be awaited. 162,828 maunds of rice have reached the district .

15. Over 4,000 persons are said to be in receipt of charitable relief. They are chiefly of thebegging class .

16. Bogra. The Collector reports that no change has taken place here during the fort- night in the condition of the people ; but the numbers on relief works have risen from 9,686 to 24,951 persons , of whom only 7,980 were men . It is evident from Mr. Kelly's account that the population of the villages is turning out to perform nominal labor on the roads . If these people are really distressed , work must be found for them in their villages . But it is stated as a fact that well - to- do people come on the roads bringing their laborer -servants with them . Certainly in such cases the labor test should be made a reality. Mr Robinson's attention is invited to Sir George Campbell's " Note" published in the last Gazette , where this question is discussed. He should take steps to have the works classified as there directed . The Lieutenant-Governor begs that Mr. Robinson will take the earliest opportunity of visiting the Bogra district .

17. The Collector thinks the land carriage of the district insufficientto carry off the whole of his increased allotment. In that case, he must arrange to store it at places from which it can be conveniently distributed in boats later in the season . Mr. Robinson should, however, look into this question without delay and report the result. The Lieutenant-Governor has hitherto been under the impression that there is enough land carriage in the district for su small an allotment .

18. Charitable relief is being given to 583 persons .

CALCUTTA, The 14th April 1874 .

Narrative of Scarcity and Relief in the Moorshedabad District for the Fortnight ending Sutur- day , the bth April 1874 .

A.- STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

1.-Abundance or scarcity of supply in the bazaar.

The supply of food -grains other than rice is reported to be increasing in the bazaars and hâts of the Sudder sub - division , and the prices are easier. There is still sufficient rice for daily consumption , but the stock is reported to be gradually decreasing. In the Lalbag sub- division there is still an abundant supply in the bazaar . The nahajuns of Baloochur and Azimgunge have opened their stores and are supplying the bazaar. In the Rampore Haut sub- 482 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

division the markets are in a similar state to what was reported in the last narrative. In the Jungipur sub -division it is reported that the supply of rice and dhân in the market of Dhulian, from East Bengal , is abundant . The Sub -Divisional Officer saw a number of Dacca rice -boats in the Ganges near Dhullian on last Monday and Tuesday. The supply of rice in other bazaars is reported to be scantier than in other years ; but there is always enough to meet the daily demand .

2.-Kind and price of grain selling at one or more principal marts .

In the Head-quarters sub - division the price of common rice is somewhat higher than at date of last narrative; the average of 12 of the principal marts gives 121 seers per rupee. It is cheapest at Nowada, where the rate is 15 seers per rupee , and dearest at Kallyangunge , where it is 11 seers per rupee . The price of wheat and gram has fallen; of the former the average is 17 scers , and of the latter 18 seers per rupee . Other food - grains such as kulai , dâl of different sorts, & c. , are somewhat cheaper , but the whole of the rubbee crops have not yet been gathered. In the Lalbag sub -division coarse rice still remains generally at 12 seers per rupee. Wheat has fallen one seer, and barley two seers . In the Rampore Haut sub -division the price of fine and coarse rice are as follows :-

Fine rice.

Coarse rice.

Khurgram

Pulsa

1148 12

Rampore Haut

Nulhattee

It will be observed that in the market of Rampore Haut the prices have fallen by one seer incomparison with those mentioned in the last narrative. In the Jungipur sub - division the price of new " hoimonto" rice is given at 12 or 121 seers per rupee .

3. Any information obtained regarding the amount and kind of grain believed to be in stock in the hands of zemindars , traders , ryots , and others .

The stock of food - grains in the hands of zemindars , mahajuns , and others in the Sudder sub -division is said to be much the same as before . No. precise estimate has been attempted. The Lalbag Sub -Divisional Officer still adheres to his former opinion . No further information has been obtained on this point, as no special ennquiries have been made . The Sub- Divisional Officer of Rampore Haut, as stated in the last narrative, states that there is little in store in the hands of zemindars and mahajuns .

4.-Rainfall, if any .

There was a slight fall of rain on the 24th ultimo in the following station jurisdictions :- Jellinghee, Nowada , and Bhurtpore; and on the 1st instant in Gowas, Dewanserai , and Jellinghee. Hail fell in the latter place on the same date, which is said to have partially injured the crops in the ground . It appears from a report since made by the Sub - Divisional Officer of Jugipur that 88 inch of rain fell in the afternoon of the 3rd instant (accompanied by gale and hailstones) . The rain will greatly benefit the cultivation of the early rice, do material good to the boro dhan now on ground, and prepare lands for the ploughing of the late or hoimonto rice .

5.- State of the Crops .

The prospects of the early rice, indigo, and mulberry crops are good . The Sub -Divisional Officer of Lalbag reports that the rubbee crops on the " dearalı" lands are all being reaped, and will give a very fair outturn . Mulberry , especially, is doing well , and this is a great thing for the people who depend to a great extent in some parts upon silk . Unfortunately a some- what considerable proportion of the worms have died , and the mulberry leaves fetch a small price and will be partly used for feeding cattle.

In the " rarh" country most of the lands have been turned up and are being manured. In the" dearah" lands the ryots are busy in turning up the ground for the " aus" sowings . The Sub - Divisional Officer of Rampore Haut states that the outturn of boro paddy in his sub- divisionwill probably be fourteen - sixteenth of an average crop . He does not speak well of the state of the rubbee crops which have been somewhat injured by the late hailstones . In the Jungipur sub-division the spring crops are reported to be good . Wheat and barley are nearly harvested. The yield will be a good one, but notwithstanding this the price of rice shows a tendency to rise.

6. Condition of the people .

There is hardly any change in the condition of the people from what was stated in the last narrative, but in some parts the people are reported to be in great want and to require assistance from the relief sub -committees . The Sub -Divisional Officer of Lalbag reports that in his present tour he had only come across some three or four cases of real distress, the persons in distress all belonging to the beggar class , and in these cases he had given money relief. He had gone through a good many villages in thana Bhadurechaut during the last fewdays and in the villages neighbouring Sagurdighee, and he had seen some persons to whom it would be soon necessary to give gratuitous relief. For this purpose a relief house will soon be started at Sagurdighee , and gratuitous relief in the shape of uncooked food will be given . There are a good many laborers about here who are in want of work . The Executive Engineer has been requested to have the repairs of the part of the Nulhattee and Azimgunge road in SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22 , 1874. 463

the neighbourhood of these villages started at once. The Sub - Divisional Officer had gone through several villages in these parts and had demarcated the boundaries of tanks to be taken up as relief works under the sub - divisional relief committee . He states that the great difficulty as regards the excavation of these tanks as relief works is the want of com- petent persons to supervise the work . He does not think that it would be safe to make over the money for these tanks to the headmen of the several villages , and that he has no other agency at his command . He could start work almost immediately on these tanks had he any one who could supervise the work , and on whom he could rely to see that the work was fairly done, and that the laborers were properly and promptly paid . I have, in a report to the Com- missioner made some little time ago , recommended the appointment of a Superintendent or Assist- ant for relief purposes by whom works such as tank excavations could be supervised. It is not advisable in many cases to entrust such works to the headmen of villages at any rate without toler- ably regular supervision. In some of the villages near Sagurdighee the Sub- Divisional Officer re- marked that some of the dried - up tanks had been dug over, and on his asking the reason was inform- ed that the poorest people had dug up the ground in search of " mattans" ( earth root honey -combed inside, which when boiled is eaten with salt) . This root is probably only used as an addition to the usual food, but still from this it would seem that the time for gratuitous relief in these parts has come, otherwise, he says , he has seen no signs of distress . I believe that these roots are consumed to a certain extent every year , whether there be good harvest or bad . The Sub- Divisional Officer of Rampore Haut states that the people that appear to be in want of food are principally , as reported in the last narrative, the old, the infirm , and the beggars, and that the poorer class of people are in difficult circumstances. This remark may be applied to the district generally. TheThe laboring class have been extensively employed in carrying the mud from dried- up tanks and putting it in their fields by way of manure . Works have been started for this class of the people, and other works will soon be started , so that I believe that no anxiety need be felt for them . These people, it appears, have not flocked in great numbers to the works which have been going on. Near Nulhattee the people were employed and paid at first at a daily rate, and when the work was offered them by contract they went away. This shews very plainly that their circumstances are not very bad . As regards the Jungipore sub -division I think I may give a general view of the country in the following words:-It may be said that the fortunate parts of this sub - division are the " dearah" or alluvial lands near the Ganges , which yielded a good " bhadoi" harvest last year , and have yielded very good winter and spring crops in the present, and the worst parts are west and south Mirzapore, of which " hoimonto " rice may be said to be the sole crop, though there is a little boro dhan on the margins of two extensive tanks . Shumshergunge is so well off that for some time at least it may be left to take care of itself. There is an active demand for labor at Dhulian , and the rate of wages is one rupee for a batch of five laborers , a rate higher than any obtaining elsewhere in this sub -division for unskilled manual labor. Mirzapore is the thana which will continue for some months to come to be the object of most anxious solicitude . Two relief sub -committees have of late been formed in this thana, and 100 maunds, of rice have been despatched from Jungipore to the sub - committee at Mirzapore and stored in the thana godown . The Juroor and Nowada road , on which work is going on , passes through west Mirzapore , the most distressed part of the sub -division. From the above it will appear that the people of the Jungipore sub -division are well off in Shumshergunge and Dewanserai , and badly off in southern and western parts of Mirzapore . In the north - west portion of thana Sooty, the mals aud krores who have no lands of their own are suffering.

7.-Actual facts as to any known cases of misery and starvation .

No cases of death from actual starvation have come to light . There was a rumour about awoman of a certain village in the Jungipur sub -division having been starved . The Sub- Divisional Officer enquired into the matter on the spot and found it to be utterly unfounded. Many such rumours , I believe , when tested by. personal enquiry, will be found to be entirely groundless . Many cases of distress and misery have been relieved by the relief committees, and though it is impossible, with the agencies at my command, to search out every case of great misery among the most helpless , there are, I think , sufficient means for them to make their distress known to the officers of Government in the various parts of the district , and to the various relief committees .

8.-Grain-thefts of robberies .

Eight cases of petty thefts of grain were reported during the fort- night in the Sudder sub-division, two of which were of such a petty nature that enquiry was refused. There have been four grain- thefts in the Rampore Haut sub -division , and no cases have been reported from the Lalbag and Jungipur sub - divisions . A crime statement is annexed.

9.- Conditions of any special tracts .

Small - pox and cholera are both very prevalent in parts of the Head -quarters sub-division. Theformer is most prevalent at Salar and Kandi in the Bhuitpore thana. Cholera prevails in the Sujagunge and Boroosh stations . In the Lalbag sub- division small -pox is still preva- lent, though decreasing in the city of Moorshedabad . There have been some cases of cholera in Baloochur. In the Rampore Haut sub-division small -fox is still raging in the villages of Doonigram and Autkoola , and the villagers are reluctant to be vaccinated. The vaccinater 464 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22, 1874 .

sent here for vaccination has been sent back, as the season for vaccinating is over . Cholera had made its appearance in the village of Mulsa, and indent has been made for cholera medi- cines . The public health in the Jungipur sub-division is reported to be generally good except that there are some sporadic cases of small- pox here and there .

B.- RELIEF WORKS .

The average number of persons employed on the several relief works is 3,464. The laborers are generally in good condition, and can obtain food easily except in the case of the Juroor and Nowada road at which food is obtainable in small quantity.quantity . The rate of task- work varies from 3 annas 6 pie to 2 annas per 100 cubic feet throughout the district, and cash payments are made at the rate of 2 aunas per diem . The men generally bring their own tools, but in a few cases they are supplied with them . A statement showing the expenditure on relief works is submitted. Several relief works have been started under the City Moorshedabad Municipality ; the number of laborers daily employed has been 85 , and the total cost during the fortnight has been Rs. 126. There has been a falling off in the number of the laborers owing to some of them having left to reap the rubbee harvest . The condition of the laborers are reported to be good. They are paid at the rate of Rs . 2 per 1,000 cubic feet of earthwork . Tools , when required, are supplied by the Municipality.

Some difficulty has been experienced by the Sub- Divisional Officer of Rampore Haut on one road for want of picks . The Executive Engineer has been requested to send 30 of these to him .

C.-TRANSPORT OF FOOD .

It appears that importation is still going on vid Allatuli ; 9,910 mauuds of food -grains have been exported from the Rampore Haut sub -divisiou , and 921 maunds have been imported into the sub-division by railway during the fortnight ending 21st March 1874 .

D.- STORAGE OF GOVERNMENT GRAINAT RELIEF WORKS .

The rice received from Mr. Toynbee for the Jungipur sub -division was found by actual measurement to be 491 maunds 39 seers 9 chittacks ; of this 100 maunds have been dispatched to the relief sub - committee at Mirzapore, and stored in the thana godown . As the rice has been paid for by the relief committee, I have some doubts whether it should now be considered as "Government grain at relief works . " In the Rampore Haut sub -division seven places of storage for grain have been selected , but it has been resolved to store grain at present only at Khurgram, Bhuddevpore, and Jhillee . A golah willbe erected at Khurgram thana for the purpose.

E.-ADVANCES TO PRIVATE PARTIES AND THEIR RESULTS .

Nineteen applications under the Land Improvement Act were received in the head- quarters sub - division during the fortnight under report, and a sum of Rs . 2,110 has been disbursed on this account . The Rampore Haut Sub- Divisional Officer reports that 50 similar applications have been received by hiın during the fortnight. Additional funds have been sup- plied to him for the purpose of making advances . A sum of Rs . 100 has been advancedby the Sub-Divisional Officer of Jungipur during the fortnight for the excavation of a tank .

Out of this number, 305 persons havebeen relieved , gratuitously, and the rest by employment in roud- repairing ,jungle -cutting , and tank-digging . Beports from the relief sub - conmmittees of baktipore , ishurtpore , and where selleť works have boen started, have not yet been received . Of the number given above who have been gratuitously relieved, a considerable proportion consists of the inhabitants of a village in the Barodah thana who were suddenly reduced to destitution by the destruction of their houses by tire .

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 465

Column 1. These committees consist of the district relief committee, its executive sub -committee at head - quarters , 12 sub - committees in the Sudder sub - division , 3 sub -divisional relief committees, and 4 sub -committees under the Rampore Haut sub-divisional relief committee, and 2 sub - committees in the Jungipur sub -division.

The committees entered in column 4 aro the 12 sub - committees in the Sudder sub - division , 4 in the Rampore Haut sub - division , and 2 in the Jungipur sub - division. During the fortnight uring the fortnight under report a sum of Rs. 150 has been sent to the Secretary of the Kattamaree sub- committee for the repair of a road in order to give employment to able-bodied men seeking relief, and another sum of Rs . 150 has also been sent to him for the purpose of excavating a tank at Lakrajparah in thana Gowas . A sum of Rs . 180 has also been sent to the Hurhurpara relief sub -committee for the repair and construction of certain roads. Rs . 100 were sent out to the relief sub - committee at Bhurtpore for construction of a bund in a village named Syed Koolut, and a sum of Rs . 276-9 was sent to the Secretary of the Hurhurparah relief sub-committee for the purchase of paddy . The Gokum relief committee have been supplied with ten maunds of jute for relief purposes , and 200 maunds of rice have been despatched from the Berhampore co - operative store to Bhurtpore for sale to poor people on advantageous terms, the price of rice in the village being somewhat high as compared with other markets . A por- tion of this rice will also be available for gratuitous relief to persons in distress from whom no labor can be exacted. The sub - committee has started the system of relief by grants of cotton and jute for the manufacture of thread and cordage, and some manufactured material has been received . There was very little desire on the part of the poor , at first, to avail themselves of this means of relief, as owing to the decline of the thread manufacture, caused by the introduc- tion of English thread, the profits yielded by one day's work were quite inadequate for one day's subsistence . More advantageous terms have now been granted as remuneration for work done, and there will, in all probability , be a considerable increase in the number of persens why will accept relief of this kind . The manufacture of cordage being far more remunerative than that of thread, no difficulty is experienced in inducing persons really in distress to take grants of jute on the condition of their receiving the value of their labor as ascertained by the difference n the prices of raw and the manufactured material .

The Gokum sub -committee having reported the great difficulty felt by the poor in the village and its neighbourhood in procuring rice , has been authorized to sell rice to such people from the stock.already stored there . Both in this case and that of Bhurtporo , necessary in- structions to secure the correct working of this measure and the submission of accounts have been issued .

The Sub - Divisional Officer of Lalbag reports that gratuitous relief is about to be organized in thana Bhadreehaut , and possibly in thana Bhugwangola, though he does not think there is any pressing need for it in the latter thana . There are no persons receiving regular gratuitous relief in his sub -division. He had given the sum of Rs . 2 only to two distressed- looking beggars , Re . 1 each , during the last fortnight. Charitable relief is given in Jungipur on every Thursday and Sunday ; 129 persons were relievedby wages for jute - spinning ; 39 received doles of pice; and between a hundred and two hundred persors , chiefly professional beggars , who cannot procure alms enough for subsistence , received doles of rico .

It should be remarked here that the average number of persons relieved as given in the last narrative was by no means complete ; several returns were received too late to be incor- porated in the narrative, and information as much as was available at the time of the submis- sion of the narrative was given. The sub -committees have been again reminded on the subject of the punctual submission of these returns.

Ihave the honor to submit my narrative for the fortnight ending 6th April .

A. STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

There has been no rain during the past fortnight , and the want of it is beginning to be felt, as until some does come the bhadoi sowings cannot be completed. The rain that fell so op- portunely during February was taken advantage of to break up the land for the early rice ; the sowings , however, were not completed, and a considerable amount of land still remains unsown. The earth in fact had become so dry that the rain we had did not suffice in all places to afford moisture enough for sowing , though it moistened the ground sufficiently to enable ploughing operations to be carried on. The above remarks apply only to pali or light soil, on which bhadoi is generally grown . This crop, it is true , is also cultivated on khiar or stiff soil , but there has notnot yet been rain enough to enable the cultivators to plough such lands , much less to sow them on the khiar landlands; however, if the cultivators fail to get any bhadoi , they will , if the weather be favorable , be able to fall back on hemantee or winter rice . The time for bhadoi sowing has not yet passed however, so that though rain now would be welcome, no present anxiety is experienced at its absence . The bora rice promises well, though in some places the water necessary for its preservation, it being a crop dependent entirely on irrigation, is be- ginning to fall short . To the north of the district a very large area has been devoted to the cul- tivation ofkaon , which is , I believe, a species of millet . This crop is generally sown in February and ripens in June, but this season it has been put in without much regard to proper seasons, and plants are to be found in Thakurgaon thana in every stage of progression, some just coming up, while other fields are beginning to ripen . As the bhadoi sowings have not yet been completed, it is not easy to determine with certainty the question of sufficiency of seed - grain , towhich the attention of all circle officers has now for some time been directed. The impres- sion, however, is, as I stated in my last report, that seed- grain both for bhadoi and hemantee willbe forthcoming, though at high rates . Bhadoi seed -grain, at one place I visited, was selling a week ago at 9 seers per rupee, a rather higher price than was fetched for clean rice in the same locality. The inquiries made by the circle officers show that the people are them- selves fully alive to the difficulty, and that dealers are purchasing and storing the produce of last harvest, while those who have stocks are holding back , in the hope that the price of seed- grain will eventually be high . I am more and more convinced that there is a sufficiency of seed-grain in the country , a stock which the sale of Government rice will tend to keep up . But admitting that there willbe a sufficiency , the question has been raised by more than one relief officer , how far will the poorer cultivatorsultivators be able to provide themselves out of the stock in the market ? And the result of their inquiries seems to show that some of the laborers on the relief works will be unable to command means enough to enable them to buy seed-grain . Some of our coolies have come on the works before exhausting all their resources, and have something at home to fall back upon to help them in this difficulty ; others , again, are able, by laboring diligently at task work , andby living economically , to save something , while others will obtain help from their zemindars or rich neighbours . There remains, however, a certain proportion , so it is reported, who have no means to fall back upon, who are unable to earn more than a bare subsistence, and whose zemindars will not help them , and as regards this class it becomes a question how far and in what way assistance should be afforded . It is most obviously the duty of the zemindar to help men of this class , and it is a duty cheerfully undertaken by all liberal and intelligent landlords ; there are, however, it is said , landlords whe are neither liberal nor intelligent, and such should be compelled to perform the duty. There is , 1 believe, a feeling among the people that Government which has done so much, will step in and undertake this burden too ; but I do not at all consider that the feeling should be en- couraged . Government have agreed to advance money to zemindars on most liberal terms ; those who expend money in helping their ryots have been promised indulgence as regards pay- ment of Government revenue ; arrangements have also been made whereby the ryots working on our roads can obtain subsistence while absent for purposes of cultivation . Government have done all that can be done to ensure that the next harvest shall not be a deficient one, and the further task of providing seed-grain need not be undertaken by them , but should be made incumbent on the zemindars . I propose directing my circle officers to inquire on whose estates the laborers who say they cannot afford to get seed-grain reside ; they will then inform the zemindars in question that certain of their ryots are in want of seed-grain, remind them of the offer of Government to advance money and grant indulgences to those who assist their tenantry, and warn them that if they decline to undertake so obvious a duty that Government will be moved to make the advance, holding the zemindar personally responsible for the debt . The responsibility will thus be cast on the right shoulders, and a safeguard afforded against any unnecessary advances being given , for we may be quite sure that any zemindar thus called on to help a ryot, who has means at his disposal , will take very good care to let the circle officer know that advances are not needed . I do not myself think that landlords will be so forgetful of their own interests as not to take care that their ryots have the means to raise the next crop . If, however, it is found that such is indeed the case , some such 468 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874.

measure as I have suggested will have to be adopted . I would deprecate any direct dealings between the Government and the ryots in this matter . Government have not the same facilities for testing the bond fides of an application, or for recovering the advance, as are possessed by the zemindars , and if the responsibility must be incurred , it should be incurred by those best fitted to sustain it . The prices ruling at the different hats and the scarcity of the supply in many places still point to exhaustion in the stocks of food - grain . Rice is now sold in Thakurgaon, the northern thana, at Rs . 4 a maund, and at few places can it be ob- tained at a cheaper rate, while sometimes it goes as high as 8 seers per rupee . In Habra and Chintamon, where there was some rice, and which are places that in ordinary years export largely, prices are rather casier, and rice is being taken from thence to other parts of this district, as well as to Rungpore and Bogra. As I noticed in my last report , prices rose very suddenly at Datiram , and distress began to be felt there and at Patintalu ; the rice, however, was at hand, ready to supply the market, and a European was at once despatched to take charge of the latter circle. What distress exists is met as it arises, and the panic has been allayed. Within the last week the supply of rice in the Gungarampore division fell short in the same sudden and unexpected manner ; there was , however, an officer at hand, sale of rice in this circle had been sanctioned, and the arrangements for selling it in train ; no difficulty was therefore experienced. The circle officer reports , however , that but for the timely arrange- ments made on receipt of orders sanctioning sale of Government rice, there would have been much distress. In Bhadooria circle there has been no sudden falling off of supplies, but though gradual, the falling off has been steady. The sudden, failures of supply which have occurred at Patiram and Gungarampore show how thin a wall often divides scarcity from famine, for until the market day there seems to have been no suspicion at Gungarainpore that the supply would fall far short of the demand . Prices at the station itself are touching Rs . 4 per maund , and the people are clamorous to have the Government golahs thrown open. I am waiting , however , for prices to rise above the present rates , or until there is some indication that the supply is not ample should occasion arise, I am quite prepared to sell . As I write, a storm has passed over the station attended with but little rain ; the heavy clouds, however, betoken rain to the north and north -west .

B. RELIEF WORKS .

The number of persons employed on the relief works is daily on the increase ; the only officer whose return shows any decrease is Mr. Scanlan, but that is accounted forby the fact of his having introduced taskwork throughout all the roads under his charge. The greater number of his coolies at first left ; but finding that he remained firm, and that by working diligently an able -bodied man can earn more than ten pice a day, they are gradually coming back, and by this time I have no doubt he has as many as ever. It must not be supposed that Mr. Scanlan is applying a severe and rigid labor test . All women and children, as well as infirm and old men, are admitted at daily wages ; but the able - bodied are obliged to do task work, and are paid according to the amount of earth excavated. Women are employed on all the works; they are all of the lower class of agriculturists, but are not generally ac- customed to work in the fields . They seem to take very kindly to the work, however, now that they have overcome their first scruples . As I have already pointed out , many of our relief laborers have joined the works before being reduced to absolute want, some of them having small stores of seed-grain in their houses ; and as soon as the weather is favorable for agricultural operations , these men will leave the works for a time. I may add that some of them employed the early morning in ploughing up their lands before coming to work on the roads . In the month of June there will , I fear , be some difficulty in providing work for laborers, for road work will be finished and tanks cannotbe dug after the rains have begun . There will, however,be a demand then for agricultural labor which will absorb a good many. The weekly reports called for from circle officers render it almost unnecessary for me to notice the number of laborers employed ; but as the return has perhaps not been correctly given this weck, I subjoin a list compiled from the latest information at my disposal; the numbers are even larger than those mentioned , for the coolies daily increase . In the Kaliagunge, Tambolee, and Bindol circles there are 9,698 persons at work . Mr. Jones finds employment for 27,472 ; these numbers probably include Chooraman . Mr. Scanlan has under him 8,785 ; Baboo Ilari Mohan Chand , 11,427 ; Mr. Finucane at Datiram has about doubled his number, and now employs 7,099 . At Patnitolla there are 3,700 under Baboo Poorno Chunder Goopto , at Bhadooria 3,360 , and in the Sudder circle, 693 ; while the Public Works Department find employment for 2,572 more.

C. TRANSPORT .

Our transport arrangements continue to work smoothly, and rice is being brought in as rapidly as could be expected ; our allotment for Dinagepore is almost all in now. Mr. West- macott at Maldah , therefore, has been directed to discontinue his service here , and to fill in the Tamboolee golahs , which he ought to do , with the large number of carts at his disposal , in the course of a month or so . Mr. Scanlan at Rani Sonkoil has got in already very nearly one lakh out of the 140,000 maunds allotted for his division ; the rest of the rice Mr. Scanlan must get through Raigunge, for the Purneah authorities, as the present arrangements stand, only supply us with 150,000 maunds in all, of which 30,000 maunds have gone to Bindoil and Hemtabud. I SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22, 1874 , 469

would suggest the advisability of at least the balance of Mr. Scanlan's allotment, say another 40,000 maunds , being put down for us at Dingraghat ; it is a mere stop across from that place to Hurreepore, and other golahs in the Rani Sonkoil division, and if we have to bring from old Maldah or IIyatpore , it is a much more tedious and expensive journey. For Patnitolla and Patiram, I learn from Lieutenant IIawkes that he can put down 2,000 maunds a day at Now- gong if I can carry it, and more if I like to take more . There ought to be no difficulty in taking 2,000 maunds a day by cart from Nowgong to Patnitolla, and at that rate another month or so should see Patnitola and Patiram full also . There is now no difficulty about carts ; the men find they are liberally paid and well treated , and work therefore willingly. There was some slight hitch about getting carts to go across the water, and serve on Mr. Reily's line from Hyatpore to Chooramon, but the men have been persuaded to go, and the difficulty got over. Pack-bullocks we do not employ at all ; some were taken on to carry rice from Maldah to Kalikamora, but as a complaint was made that private trade was being interfered with, and as plenty of carts were procurable, the bullocks were given up ; nor do I think there will be any necessity to fall back upon their services again.

D.- STORAGE OF GRAIN .

Rice is being distributed throughout the country at the different golahs , for it is clear the time is not far distant when we shall have to supply the market to a considerable extent . Forms for stock accounts are beginning to come in ; they have not all arrived , but from what Ihave seen, they promise to be somewhat elaborate, rather too much so for ordinary golahdars on Rs . 15 or 20 a month . For these accounts to be of any value, we must assume that the quantity stored has been, in the first instance, accurately calculated ; but this is just what we do not know, and what it would be now almost hopeless to attempt to ascertain. As I pointed out in previous reports , we have never been provided with proper weights and scales , so that the rice could not be weighed at the golahs even if we have wished to do so ; but even if the weights and scales had been forthcoming , they could not have been made use of, for at the rate rice was poured into the district, it was as much as we could do to stow away our grain without stopping to weigh . A grain officer has now been nominated, but it will be quite impossible for him to go round, as the printed instructions seem to contemplate and weigh the grain in each golah . The instructions again seem to contemplate the ascertainment of the wastage during the journey to Calcutta, from thence to the points of receipt into the district , and from such points to final destination. As a fact , the bags have not, I believe, been weighed anywhere on the journey, and the deficit to be found now will be the wastage during the entire journey . 1 have not, however, seen all the accounts , so I am perhaps premature in judginging of their adaptability.

E.-ADVANCES .

There have been no further applications for advances .

F.- CHARITABLE RELIEF .

The district relief officer has been entrusted with the duty of filling in this head of the narrative, and his report is appended . It seems to me advisable, however, first to mention the general principles on which our scheme for charitable relief is founded. The first idea was to have a central executive committee in the station, who should direct relief operations through sub - committees scattered about throughout the district . This was before I was aware of the extensive agency that was to be placed at my disposal. It was soon apparent that the com- mittee system would not work, there was a feeling of divided responsibility ; the action of the Magistrate was also liable to be hampered , since a measure that seemed advisable to him was liable to be vetoed . I therefore, acting under the directions of Sir Richard Temple, did away with the agency of committees as a directing power altogether, and impressed on all circle officers that as I am responsible for my district, so each officer is responsible for his own circle, such responsibility being shared by none ; that the aid of the respectable local authorities in to be sought, and their counsel and advice treated with respect, but that each officer is to use his own discretion in acting on it, though , in the event of an officer acting in direct op- position to local experience , he is bound to report the action taken by him . Each officer , with the aid of two or more Inspectors , manages his own circle with the assistance and through the co -operation of the respectable inhabitants , and reports weekly to the District Relief Officer all that he is doing . The District Relief Officer has general control over all the circles , sub- ject to the direction of the Magistrate and Collector, and is independent, except in so far that he is to be guided by the spirit of the instructions issued by me to all circle officers . The District Relief Officer is in fact in charge of a particular department, much in the same way as the Superintendent of Police is in charge of his , subject to the general control of the head of the district . The report of the District Relief Officer is subjoined .

"Arrangements for giving charitable relief within this district have been in force for about a month, but it has only been within the last fortnight that the necessity for the syste- 470 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

The 'places,' it will be observed, do not correspond with the fourteen circles into which the district is now divided , because these circles were constituted subsequently to the date of the returns tabulated above. The returns given below for the second week of the fortnight correspond accurately with the new circles .

Charitable relief is granted to all persons who have no money wherewith to buy food, and who cannot, by reason of age, caste , or other adequate excuse , earn a livelihood for themselves . Light work, as spinning and gunny cloth work, is provided for the better ranks of females , and for males who cannot do hard work; inquiries are duly made into the circumstances of persons who apply for charitable relief, but relief, when obviously required, is never with- held during the progress of inquiries. The agency of Mandals and other heads of. villages is employed both in making inquiries and in distributing rice. The rice is bought fromGo- vernment stores at 12 seers a rupee for fully husked rice , and at 14 seers when the grain has not been completely cleaned before being packed in the bags . In either case, the daily dole amounts to half a seer of clean rice for adults , and a quarter seer for children under 12. The question has been raised by two officers whether this quantity is sufficient, and no doubt it is a minimum allowance . But I think we should not at present increase it ; our work is still before us ; we know not with accuracy how many months we may yet have to feed, and should husband our resources accordingly . It has yet to be proved, moreover , that half a seer of rice, supplemented as it is with the sum of one pice per adult for the purchase of salt and other seasoning ingredients , is insufficient to keep a man in a fair condition. One case has been reported in which a woman preferred to work and get eight pice a day to accepting her half seer of rice and one pice; but if the woman's labor was worth eight pice, it is clear that the arrangements by which one charitable relief elicits working power instead of encouraging idleness is altogether good , and , as far as my present information enable me to judge, half a seer is just that quantity which will suffice for the support of weak and infirm persons, and at the same time not afford any inducement to those who are able to work to abstain from exerting themselves for their better support . The following table gives the number of persons receiving charitable relief on the dates shown in column 2. No comparison is made of details of the circles this week with details of the last week shown above, because this week the dis- trict is divided into different circles from those in which it was divided last week .

1,791 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22 , 1874. 471

This gives a daily consumption of, say, 850 seers , or a little over 21 maunds , which is a monthly consumption of 651 maunds ; and if the people be fed up to the end of September (six months from date) , 3,906 maunds will be consumed . The number of applicants for relief will increase as time passes .

Patiram, it will be observed , is far ahead of any other circle in the amount of charitable relief given; but I have perfect confidence in Mr. Finucane , and feel sure that he will not give relief where relief ought not to be given . The professional beggars, deprived of their susten- ance as ordinarily obtained through the charity of their friends, contribute to the number of applicants for charitable relief. Every possible endeavour is made to induce them to work, and it seems a fair question whether strong -bodied men, who are by caste beggars , have any claim to support when they refuse to work . A few men have been discovered about Dinage- pore who come for charitable relief in the morning to the Government place of distribution, and at a later hour resort to a distribution of food given to professional beggars by the Dinagepore agent of the Banker , Dhanpat Singh Roy, Bahadoor. Inquiries are under pro- gress with the object of striking the names of these men off the list of paupers who receive charitable relief from Government .

Except in Patiram, it will be observed that the number receiving charitable relief is still small . The organisation by means of circle officers , aided by their assistants, and advised but not controlled by their sub -divisional (or circle) committees , is admirably adapted to the requirements of the work in hand, while local agency, chiefly in the form of sub-committees for small groups of villages , renders important services in distributing rice almost at the very door of each recipient of charity. Cases may occur in which extreme apathy or caste prejudices, honoured even in extremes , may induce people to be still and die rather let their cases be known about ; but excepting these, not likely under any circumstances to be numerous, it is not probable that any deaths from starvation will occur within this district .

The collection of private subscriptions is now nearly over. Several sums, promised when the relief schemes were first commenced, remain to be collected , and I trust will be paid by those who promised them. Of new subscriptions , only 25 have been collected during the past week, making the total local subscriptions actually paid Rs . 7,170 .

The committee has received also 20,000 as a subsidy from the Central Relief Committee , and as I write, a cheque has been brought to me for another sum of the same amount from the same committee .

No. 90, dated Bauleah , the 7th April 1874

From-- W . H. D'OYLEY, Esq. , Collector of Rajshahye,

To-The Officiating Secretaryto the Government of Bengal , Statistical Department.

I HAVE the honor to submit my narrative for the fortnight ending 4th instant, and regret that it has been unavoidably delayed till to -day .

A.- STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

In the Sudder sub -division there have been large importations , and rice and paddy is getting cheaper . In Bauleah and Charghat common rice is selling at from 13 to 13 seers (80 tolahs' weight) per rupee . In parts of the Nattore sub-division, also , prices have improved. At the same time, in some places the supply in the markets has not been sufficient , and the prices have been very high , notably at Sahebgunge on the Attrai and Sooktigatchce. This the Deputy Collector of Nattore attributes to the strain on the local markets caused by the out- siders who have come to work on the railway drawing their supplies from them. I have written to Major Lindsay on the subject . I have lately received reports of short supplies at Bhundaikhara; but last Wednesday the price of rice was by no means high there , 12 seers (80 tolahs' weight ) being procurable per rupee ; while at Godagrce, a few days ago, I ascertained that rice was cheaper at Gobindpore Haut (the market which supplies a great portion of the Godagaree thana) than it had been a short time back . While the rice has in many places improved, I regret to have to report that the silk bund, which was looked forward to with so much hope, has proved a failure,ure , and this no doubt will cause a great deal of distress . I am, however, hopeful that the work provided in several parts where the pressure is most felt will prove sufficient for the able - bodied , while those unable to work will get relief at poor-houses . 2. There have been no cases of starvation ; the condition of the laborers on the roads is still good . Petty thefts have been more numerous than they were in the corresponding months in 1872 and 1873 , and I think there can be no doubt that this increase is owing to the high price of food. The number of cases of house -breaking is smaller than that for the corre- sponding month of the last year, and the number of cases of theft and house -breaking during March last is considerably smaller than the number reported during February .

B.- RELIEF WORKS .

I have only been able to send the return for the first week of the fortnight , as that for the last week reached me only last night , and was found to be incorrect . I hope to be able to forward it in a few days . It will be observed that the total number of laborers during the first week was still large . I have advanced Rs. 1,080 to the manager of the Tahirpore estate to improve the road from Bauleah to Tahirpore , as relief was much required in those parts . Mr. Durand was also entrusted with the repairs of a portion of the road from Bagmara to Bhundaikhara, and the remaining portion has been done by a Sub - Inspector of Police.

C.- TRANSPORT OF GRAIN .

The means available for the transport of grain are ample, and for exceed what was expected. It is now quite clear that by giving fair rates any amount of carriage is available . It is doubtful whether public trade has been interfered with by the employment by Government of such an enormous quantity of carts and boats . I have heard complaints that a cart is not to be had for love or money, but at the same time importations continue.

D.- STORAGE OF GOVERNMENT GRAIN .

The annexed statements show the progress . There has been no falling off in the amounts forwarded through for other districts .

F.- CHARITABLE RELIEF .

61 Pootea

38 Nowhatta

These are chiefly poor women without the means of support, blind , and lame.

2. In the northern Bhurind sub -division there are at present four poor-houses , and the average number fed daily at each is as follows :-

22 Bagsole

23 Saljore

Larupara

10 13 Bamneegram

In the south Bhurind division there are four poor-houses, but the sub - divisional officer has not been able to send the accounts as yet, as he had not received them from the several poor- house-keepers when he submitted his report.

474 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

In the Nattore sub - division there is one poor-house , which was lately opened by Rai Baboo Grish Chandra Lahory, but which is now under the management of the sub - divisional committee . No accounts have been received from this institution .

I have directed the sub - divisional officer of the northern Bhurind to collect kunker at convenient places , paying women and children at the rate of one anna per cubie foot for it . There is a good deal of kunker in the Bagmara elaka, and there will be water -communication in the rains, by which it can be brought to Bauleah .

The district relief committee have applied to the Central Relief Committee for a grant to relieve the poor sufferers whose houses and property were destroyed by the fires which occurred lately in the town of Bauleah . Of course money will only be given to those who are fit objects for charitable relief, and of these there are a great many ; and it is estimated that Rs . 3,000 will be required for this purpose . The amount of suffering caused by the fires can be imagined from the fact that upwards of 76,000 rupees worth of property was destroyed . A sub -committee has been formed to enquire into the matter, and to discover who are really deserving of charitable relief.

RAJSHAHYE COLLECTORATE, The 10th April 1874 .

Collector.

J. O'FLAHERTY , District Engineer.

No. 42-F, dated Maldah , the 8th April 1874 .

From-F . J. ALEXANDER , Esq . , Offg . Magistrate- Collector of Maldah , To-The Offg . Secretary to the Government of Bengal , Statistical Department .

In continuation of this office letter No. 929F of the 24th ultimo , I have the honor to submit herewith the fortnightly narrative of scarcity and relief in the Maldah district for the fortnight ending 4th instant.

Fortnightly Narrative of Scarcity and Relief in the Maldah District for the fortnight ending the 4th April 1874 .

A.- STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

THE supply of rice and paddy in the local market is less abundant in a noticeable degree than hitherto, and is gradually decreasing in quantity each successive market- day at a great many of the local hauts and bazars .

e The importations of rice and paddy through private sources from the eastern districts are also comparatively small, and arrive at irregular intervals. New wheat in considerable quantities has come into the local markets , but has not had much effect on the quotations of rice and paddy,and paddy, the supplies of which (rice and paddy) so far as the central and southern tracts has been barely equal to the demand, and that is all. In the north- west tracts consider- able importations of food -grains from Sahebgunge vid Hyatpore were reported during the early parts of the fortnight, but had fallen again during last week . The reason of the decrease, so Mr. Reily thinks, may be indirectly caused by the fact that the Dinagepore officials are selling rice at 13 seers for the rupee to the public, " but it is hard to estimate," he says , "to what it is owing."

Prices have been unsteady and fluctuating with the deficiency in the rice supplies . During the early part of the fortnight there was a marked and sudden rise, 9 seers to 10 seers being the price then quoted for ordinary rice at most of the principal markets in the central and southern tracts , where supplies had hitherto been plentiful. At the close of the fortnight prices were rather more favorable again, 10 to 11 seers of 80 tolahs per rupee being the quotation for ordinary rice at the sudder station , and to - day 11 to 12 seers is obtainable .

The following are the latest prices ofof paddy and ordinary rice for the fortnight at the undermentioned principal markets in different parts of the district (wheat is selling at the sudder station at 15 seers of 80 tolahs per rupee) :-

Note. At Kohunpore , on the last markot - day , 1,000 maunds of paddy and 125 maunds of rice are reported as brought for sale, the gradual decrease in the supply will thus be noticed in comparison with last fortnight .

RAIN-FALL .

During the early part of the fortnight , strong westerly winds prevailed , succeeded by south and south -east winds , with excessive heat till Friday, 3rd April , when a heavy thunder- storm, accompanied by hail and rain , passed over the district from south -west to north -east . Since then the weather has been cooler , and at times cloudy, but without more rain . The rain -fall of the 3rd is recorded at the sudder station ( which was quite in the centre of the storm) at 0.88 . The north - west of the district got little or no rain . *

STATE OF THE CROPS .

The wheat and barley harvest is almost completed , and these crops have turned out above the average . The cheena (millet) and the gram crops, now harvesting, are also turning out well .

Before the rain of the 3rd a good deal of the bora dhan crop was in a very critical condition ; the extensive area cultivated this year , and the difficulty of irrigating the drier portions of it , owing to the low states of the jheels , had made it very problematical whether a veryconsiderable portion of the plant would not dry up, and every effort was being made, where such was the case, by cutting bunds to save as much of the crop as possible . The rain of Friday last has, however, I am glad to be able to report , come in time to save much of what was drying up ; and if we have another shower within the next fortnight the bora dhan will give a considerable out - turn and help a good deal to supplement the food - supply at a most critical time. It willbe ripening in another 20 or 25 days . I have visited in the centre of the district an extensive area of the crop , both before and after the rain, and am glad to be able to report so far well of it . Accounts of it from the south - west are also good, but in the north -west it is stated to be much in need of a shower of rain .

The sowings of the bhadoi dhan crop have been commenced , and a very much larger area than in ordinary years is reported to have been prepared for the reception of this crop . The want of proper seed has, however, been severely felt, the price of such seed having risen to Rs . 6 a maund .

The mango crop promises fairly well . In the " Parova " jungles the bamboos (known as the beora bans) have this year flowered and produced grain in abundance, and many of the poorer classes have within the last few days been collecting this grain as an article of food .

CONDITION OF THE DISTRICT .

The health of the district continues generally good, but the poorer classes are feeling the high price of rice very much . About the towns and large villages especially , there are many women, some with families and some without , who in an ordinary year manage to support themselves by husking rice , but are now reduced to great proverty for want of their ordinary occupation . The plentiful wheat -harvest and comparatively cheaper rice of the same has , with the help of the previous " kalai " crop, helped to sustain the poor ; hut the fact that numbers of people have lately been collecting the bamboo rice in the Parooa jungles shows that the scarcity is beginning to tell heavily on many , even in the richer tracts , where the necessity for very extended relief has hitherto not been thought necessary. Disastrous fires , too , during the week at the sudder station have catised additional trouble to many of the lower classes . The sudder relief committee are getting up a subscription for those who have really suffered from these fires . Hitherto , our charitable relief operations have in the central and southern tracts been confined to a few relief centres at the chief places , where the old and the sick and infirm have received gratuitous help; but the present condition of the district assures me that throughout the district our relief operations must now be extended, and village-to-village visitations be made even in those tracts which hitherto have not been considered distressed . No cases of starvation are reported from any part of the district, but instances of old and infirm people in real distress have come to light.

N. B. After writing so far last evening (April 7th) , a heavy thunder- storm from the north - west came up, accompaniedby heavy rain and heil . The raiu- fall recorded at the sudder station was 0.69 . No reports received from out- stations.

F. J. ALEXANDER .

The 8th April 1874.

480 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874.

I annex a comparative statement of cases of robbery and theft , & c. , for the month of March ; it does not call for special remark ; there is no remarkable increase of crime, and no sort disorganization of society , by people leaving their homes in numbers in search of relief; but that many families are on " short commons " is only too significantly indicated by the fact which I have mentioned , of many persons collecting bamboo rice in the Paroon jungle. The medical officer cannot say that it is unwholesome, or actually injurious to health , but if eaten for several days together he thinks it would produce sickness . It has all the appearance of a fine rice (which, indeed , I suppose it is) , and it is a fact that it is being eaten bymany, if not in place of ordinary rice , still as a supplement to other ordinary food . The natives say, with superstitious dread , " in a famine year the bamboo flowers and produces grain."

CONDITION OF ANY SPECIAL TRACT .

From the distressed tract (thana Khurbuh and part of Goregoribah) no cases of starva- tion are reported ; but Mr. Reily in his latest report writes : "The numbers availing themselves of the distribution of food at the kitchen at Chanchal increase daily , the maximum being 500 in one day . The majority of these recipients are villagers of the neighbouring estates , and are persons who would not, unless driven by necessity, accept food in a cooked state without loss of caste privileges , and this may therefore be taken as a genuine instance of distress among the ryots of this tract . + "

B.- RELIEF WOKS .

During the fortnight work has been going on in the north -west tracts under Mr. Reily on 12 roads and 8 tanks . Three of the roads have been completed . Government rice is sold to persons laboring on the relief works at 12 seers per rupee : but the details of the quantity sold have not been furnished. Mr. Reily says :-" I have not thought it necessary to sell Govern- ment grainto the public up to the present moment, as, from diligent enquiries , I find that the supplies of the private marts are quite equal to the demand . Government grain will be sold by me at the sauctioned rates directly. I see that there is a necessity for supplementing the private supplies ." Work is also going on on the ordinary district roads and municipal roads, and on the other relief works noted below .

During the fortnight two new relief roads have been started , viz . , one at Bulbul Chandee in thana Maldah , under Mr. Livesay, district relief officer, and another near Gomastapore under Lieutenant Burgess .

Shops , where Government grain is sold at 12 seers per rupee, have been opened at several , places where the local supplies were failing, or the local rates very high . On the Dimagepore , road, beyond Maldah city, I found a day or two since that the workmen (Beldars) were daily taking their supplies from a Government shop close by, and were fairly contented with what they got, and ignored " bamoo rice ." Further on , however, in the Parooa jungles , I found that all the local villagers ( Polis , Rajbangsis , &c .) had deserted the road -work to go and pick up "bamboo rice." At Englishbazar the coolies object to the " Aloou - rice " at 12 seers , and the moodee has sold but little yet, nor is it likely he will do so as long as Poorbi- rice is obtain- able (as it now again is at 10 to 12 seers) .

The following quantities of Government grain have been sold at the undermentioned places to workmen employed on relief works, but the information is incomplete , as the returns from some of the shops have not been received :----

C.-TRANSPORT OF FOOD .

Private trade in paddy and rice is very dull ; the small local craft that ply on the Maha- nuddy, between Roharpore and the chief bazars , are barely sufficient to keep up the necessary supplies , while the private trade in these articles with the eastern districts is very irregular and fluctuating . The fact is that every available boat on the Mahanuddy has been taken up in the Government transport work, and private trade must necessarily be slack.

The trade in new wheat, which is brought from the dearah to the bazars and huts on pack- bullocks , is fairly brisk .

The transport of Government grain goes on satisfactorily. Up to the end of the last week, i. e . , April 4th , the grain return shews 4,43,404 maunds received into the district , of which 4.01,668 maunds had passed through the district , or was in transit for Dinagepore, and 26,741 maunds was stored in the district . By the Hyatpore route , Mr. Reily had carried some 75,000 maunds up to the 2nd April , via Domroil, for the Dinagepore district , and his average despatches for last week have been over 2,000 maunds a day . He is expecting 600 carts from Dinagepore, and with this will be able to raise his despatches to 3,000 or 4,000 maunds aday, and in that case expects to complete by the end of the month the quantity of grain to be carried by that route .

Mr. Westmacott's despatches for the last week by the land - route, from Old Maldah to Dinagepore, averaged 1,844 maunds per diem, and by the water- route from Neemaserai to Raigunge and Chooramon ( Dinagepore) , 1,219 maunds per diem .

The Manickchak route is to be closed, and the remainder of the grain carried by the Godagaree and Hyatpore routes . The carts now employed on the Manickchak route , between that place and Neemaserai , should , if possible, be put on the Hyatpore route .

D.- STORAGE OF GOVERNMENT GRAIN .

The grain- return for the last week shows 26,741 maunds stored in the district, but there

have been some additions and changes in the disposition of the grain, and I am not sure that these figures are quite correct . The returns of stock, which will be taken this week, will enable me to state precisely what quantity is in store at each golah.

The falling off of the local supplies and the consequent rise in the prices has necessitated my distributing grain to localities where it was not expected it would be needed so soon , if at all, but where it is now requiredaired for the charitable relief committees and laborers on relief works.

Up to the close of the fortnight the arrangements as to storage of grain at main golahs and distribution to subsidiary ones were as follow :- Main golah No. 1 , at English Bazar-

E.-ADVANCES TO PRIVATE PARTIES , AND THEIR RESULTS.

The advance of Rs . 50,000 , applied for by Raj Nath Guho under clause B , paragraph 4, of Government Circular No. 80 , dated 17th November 1873 , and of which Rs. 10,000 had already been advanced under sanction of the Special Commissioner, has now been sanctioned in full by Government , and is available as soon as the applicant appears to receive the same. Rs . 100 has been ordered to be advanced to one Juggur Nath Sing , farmer of a Government estate, to assist his ryots (Government Circular No. 4020 , dated 18th December 1878) ( this money has since been paid) . No other advances have been made ; several have been sanctioned, and are available when the parties come forward to register their agreements.

F.- CHARITABLE RELIEF .

The arrangements in regard to charitable relief are progressing; several new contres have been opened; circles allotted to different officers ; and inspectors deputed to visit villages , and report and relieve all cases of distress that come to their notice.

Looking at the present condition of the people , and the pressure caused by the high prices , and want of means in money to the proper classes , I have deemed it advisable to start arrange- ments whereby the inspection and relief, not only of the admittedly distressed portion of the district , but of each thana shall be more extended than hitherto .

The present arrangements are as follow :-

SPECIAL RELIEF CIRCLES .

1. Chanchal Circle .- Head-quarters, Chanchal , under Mr. Reily, with Lieutenant Kellie to assist him . One relief inspector at his post, one appointed , and ordered to join at once . One native doctor arrived , and sent to join his post .

2. Gazole Circle. Head- quarters, Gazole, under Baboo Okhoy Kumar Bose, Sub- Deputy Collector . One relief inspector at his post . One native doctor arrived , and ordered to join his post at once.

3.-Maldah Circle . Head -quarters , Bulbul Chandee , under Baboo Hem Chunder Kerr , Deputy Magistrate and Deputy Collector . One relief inspector at his post . One native doctor.

SUB -DIVISIONAL AND THANA CIRCLES .

Sudder Sub -Division . Includes Englishbazar, Kaliachack , and Seebgunge, and part of Goregoribah, under Mr. J. J. Livesay, c.s. , district relief officer. One relief inspector (Mr. Christopher Owens) deputed to Seebgunge , at his post .

FORWARDED to the Secretary to the Government of Bengal .

Narrative of Scarcity and Relief in Rungpore District for the fortnight ending 4th April 1874 .

A.- STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

In the part of the district north - east, towards Kurigram , the importation of grainis active , and the supply at the hauts and bazars is reported to be as plentiful as it used to be in ordinary times . The weeding of the early rice bas everywhere begun, and in some parts near Kurigram laborers are in consequence leaving the relief works . There is no change in this quarter in the condition of the people, which occasions little anxiety at present, and is as satisfactory as can be expected while prices are so high. The grain market continues the same , both as to supplies andand prices , which are from Rs. 3-8 to Rs . 4 per maund of 80 tolahs weight .

At Borobaree in the same direction the relief officer observed, on road No. C6 , that women of low caste and prostitutes had come out to work , and it was assumed that the circumstances of the poorer people in that neighbourhood were getting bad. The zemindar of Bhitarband opened an annachatra at Didhata, and the daily average of those who attended was 35, and has not increased . No cases of actual distress were discovered . The wheat and pulses recently harvested have temporarily improved the condition of the people in this neigh- bourhood . The importations there are by land from Cooch Behar, and by water from Gowalparah and Eastern BenBengal . The supplies are fairly maintained by both routes . In Fulbarya Chakla distress is general , but it has not assumed any severe form among the poorer classes . The Cooch Behar officers are doing a great deal towards reliefby providing work on roads and in digging wells . Want of water here, as in many other parts of the district, is complained of.

2. Passing to Kishoregunge and Juldhaka, and that quarter on the north -west, the reports are, that the supplies of rice in the chief markets are well maintained , and that prices remain the same, from Rs . 3-8 to Rs . 4 a maund of 50 tolahs weight . The standing crops are all doing well , and prospect is good. The condition of the people in that part of the dis-

*13 cases grain - theft.

486 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

trict is in no degree critical as yet, though , from the dearness of food and straitened means, many isolated cases of distress have come to notice, and have been relieved .

From Kallygunge, on the south - west, Mr. Blair reports :-" The price of best rice at the river ghâts is Rs . 4-2 to- day, April 3rd 1874) and the lowest-priced rice Rs. 3-14 . The price has been rising steadily during the fortnight . The supply has been very deficient ; the average daily amount at the Premgunge and Kolmoo ghats has been about 500 maunds at the former, and 600 maunds at the latter-1,100 maunds . There is , I hear , a large supply of grain at Chellobaree, about one day's journey south of this , and rice is selling there at Rs . 3-5 . The dalals of this ghat have sent word there , and have no doubt that a lot will come up . The rise here is stated to be owing to the deficiency of the supply and the great want of grain.

" There has been no rainfall during the fortnight , and the early crops are in consequence suffering much . The ' cheena ' is all on ear , and very much dwarfed and withering up ; the known crop is also suffering much, and it is stated that unless rain falls soon both crops will be a failure. Wheat and other cold weather crops have all been gathered, and are good." Between the 1st and the 4th rainfall has been reported, and appears to have been tolerably general . The country looks bright and green, and the crops still promise well .

3. Towards Gaibanda and Bhowanigunge, south -west and southwards , and towards Sadullapore, south-east of Gaibanda, the supplies of rice in the bazars are reported to be scanty, owing to the falling off of imports from the neighbouring districts of Bogra and Dinagepore, and prices vary from Rs . 3-9 to Rs . 4 per maund of 80 tolahs weight.

No reliable information can be obtained regarding private stocks ; but it is believed that about one -eighth of the population have about two months' stocks in hand . Wheat and barley and sugarcane are very good . The millets have been suffering from want of rain ; early rice continues being extensively sown on the palee lands ; but in the direction of Kamdiar ( red clay) land , the sowings have not yet been commenced . The condition of the people in the south -east of the district remains unsatisfactory on account of the high prices , but the wheat and pulses have much benefited those who raised these crops . Applications for advances from the ryots are most numerous , and the zemindars and large jotedars are required to help their ryots. Loans are being made, but it is found difficult to manage with the non- resident land - owners .

4. In Nisbetgunge and Kourgunge , on the west of the station of Rungpore, the condi- tion of the people is not less favorable than in the southern parts of the district already described. More active relief is, however, going on in that quarter, and the circumstances of the poor are carefully watched . Information of urgent distress and of a case of starvation was received yesterday,yesterday, and the relief officer proceeded to Kourgunge to give relief and to ascertain the facts .

5. In Mahigunge, Sundargunge , and Molung active relief work is going on everywhere , and arrangements are well organised in advance of present necessities . The recent sale of the rice saved from the fire at the Mahigunge golahs was so arranged as to be in some degree a measure of relief for the poor people of that neighbourhood . Public relief in the way settled and charitable aid in all its modes , are being actively applied to assist the indigent ryots and their families , who , in many villages , are very hard pressed , andto seek out individual cases of destitution , which mightbe fatal except for the watchfulness of the relief officers and their assistants . Distress appears both from official and private report to be well got in hand in these parts. Private trade is active . The prices at the chief hâts and bazars are from Rs . 3-9 to Rs . 4 per maund of 80 tolahs

6. Proceeding southward to Peergunge , Sadullapore, Govindgunge , and Kamdyar, owing to the pressure from high prices , local failure, or absence of crops and ill-supplied markets , the condition of those first affected by the scarcity is more critical than in the part of the district last described . The reports have occasioned doubt and anxiety . The promtest action has been taken on the first information or requisition . The staff has been increased in Govindgunge; the transport of grain there hasbeen pushed forward ; the relief officer has been kept supplied with funds . Materials for home- relief have been sent , and employment on road- repairing and well -digging has been opened out in every direction through the worst tract for the relief of distress in the neighbouringe neighbouring villages ; advances of grain are about to be made to the indigent ryots should circuinstances be found to require this .

7. The relief officer , Mr. Damant , reports that the supply to the south and east of Sadullapore " and of Govindgunge is still tolerably well maintained by imports from the east- ern districts by the Brahmaputra . In Peergunge , and the west of Govindgunge, the supplies are very small, and may part us at any time. Importation from Dinagepore seems to have entirely ceased . A very little comes from Bogra , but this cannot last long . Prices are ex- cessively high, ranging from Rs . 3-12 a maund on the banks of Brahmaputrato Rs . 5 ; in some small hats the price is Rs. 4-4. "

"The village inspection has disclosed greater distress , the relief officer reports , than was anticipated. In the tract lying west of the Kurotya, the state of the villages is wretched beyond description ; the people Lave sold every thing they possessed, and are now solely de- pendent on Government. ManyMany have sold their plough- cattle, the last thing with which a Bengalee ryot parts. I found one instance where a man had sold the roof over his head. Many royts have deserted the place altogether, and gone to Bogra and elsewhere. The relief officer reports that the people seem to be most grateful for the relief works . The villages in this quarter are now quite deserted in the day - time . Every one is to be found on the road; the women are now coming readily , bringing their children with them . All are most anxious SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 487

to get Government rice . The want of water is felt nearly as keenly as the want of food . In many villages people have to go two or three miles to bring a gharah of water . I have begun to excavate three old tanks in the worst parts , and am digging wells at every mile along the roads. A few cases of cholera , with one death , have occurred among the coolies. "

In the neighbourhood of Ramnagar, Dhaperhat , Tremohini , and Peergunge considerable distress is reported .ported . No cases of deathhave occurred, but many instances people very much reduced by starvation have been found. There are about 10,000 persons employed on the roads , of whom about half are men , one- third children , and one -sixth women . The women only work on the roads on the west side of Govindgunge , where they come in great numbers .

8. In many tracts on the south and the south- west of the district the poorer classes of ryots have been obliged to sell or pledge the few things they have. Many complain of the difficulty of having only one full meal of rice a day, and of having to eke out the second meal with various coarse substitutes for rice . All those who work on the road carn enough to provide their two meals of rice a day, and a little for their families besides . The ryots inmany places from time to time complain of inability to sow their lands from want of seed . The lands, however, where ready, have all been sown, and a far larger area than usual has been cultivated with early rice . Many of the ryots are found after investigation to have complained of their zemindars and of their circumstances without reason . There is, however, much widely-diffused distress which is being carefully looked after , and relief to meet the circum- stances that arise in each locality is promptly organised on the spot . People complain of the dearness and of having to live closely, but only in isolated cases has the pressure from high prices produced actual distress . There have been no deaths traceable to the present scarcity. Nopremature deaths have come under notice for inquiry . The only caso that has come under inquiry in the last fortnight was that of a very old woman who died of disease, probably hastened by privation. 6. The wheat and pulses have been stored by the ryots , and are being used for food ; very little of it finds its way into the market .

The wheat is not ground in mills and made into flour for bread, but is simply husked and boiled like rice and eaten with salt, chillies , &c .; or else after husking it is made into a coarse sort of meal, and then mixed with water into a mash and sweetened with goor, and so used for food . The poor here do not appear to know the proper use of wheat, and if taught can make nothing of it, as they have no hand- mills for this purpose.

10. All classes understand thoroughly the modes of relief adopted by the Government , and many anticipate the action of the relief officers , by ready complaints of distress , with suggestions for relief works , and annachatras in their neighbourhood . They are very grateful for what is being done, and the laborer -ryots declare that many of them must have perished but for the reliefrelief works . Under the present circumstances of the people (except inin the worst parts of Govindgunge) , small advances are better appreciated and more sought after than any other form of relief.

11. There have been numerous complaints from bodies of dissatisfied ryots as to alleged abuses in manipulating the advances obtained by the zemindars and jotedars without interest from Government. The cases have been disposed of to their apparent satisfaction , and every precaution has been taken to see that the advances are properly distributed among the ryots , and that substantial agreements are executed to guard against possible attempts hereafter at realising prohibited interest from the ryots . The independence of the ryots in Rungpore affords the best guarantee against such endeavours .

12. All compcomplaints regarding scarcity are taken up at once, and assistance and investiga- tion proceed together . Relief works are opened within easy distance of villages where great poverty or distress are believed to exist, and all ablebodied persons requiring means of subsis- tence are provided for in that way. People unfit for work are sent to the nearest annachatras; if too distant , they geta ticket for 7 days or 14 days' food, or an advance direct . The home- less mendicants are housed at the chatras as long as they choose to remain, but a few beggars unfit for work obstinately refuse to avail themselves of the annachratras, and they have been temporarily relieved with donations of raw rice and a little money at the villages they usually frequent.

13. Complaints of neglcet on the part of the zemindars are promptly enquired into, and the attendance of the zemindars or their agents is caused, and they are required to assist their ryots with money or grain from their resources, or else to take advances from the Government for the purpose. The zemindars , as a rule, appear to be behaving well to their ryots, but some of them are still very backward in their duty in this respect . During the last fortnight relief has everywhere, aud in every mode, become developed and better organised. The appearance of large bodies of the peasantry has been carefully observed and reported on from all quarters. There are no indications of debility or deterioration from insufficient nourishment among the generality of the poorer classes , who live much from hand to mouth.

14. In the north and north - east of the district near Kulaghat, the relief officer visited a number of villages , and also along the road from Kulaghat to Sapana. There was nothing apparent to indicate distress among the poor of this neighbourhood , and inquiry confirmed this view . In some placesome places the men were very clamorous, andand from their behaviour it was clear they were under a false impression, and believed that if they were only sufficiently importunate and complained as loudly as possible the (Government would supply them with money by loan or advance, or even as a gift . In the same locality others were found going to the opposite 488 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22 , 1874 .

extreme . They resented the idea of there being distress in their villages , and answered to all inquiries " there are none in want here." The condition of the people does not appear to be bad in that part of the district (Borobari ) . It is , however, with the rest being carefully watched. The price of rice there is from Rs . 3-4 to Rs . 3-8 a maund of 80 tolahs weight .

15. In another case a petition from a body of clamorous ryots , giving a very bad description of distress and starving people, and of the neglect of the zemindar, was investi- gated. It was unfounded in fact throughout . On censuring the ryots , they blamed the mooktears for using exaggerated language . In numerous cases the ryots have complained without cause against their zemindars when they were well - off, and no relief was necessary.

16. In the majority of the villages bordering on the lines of relief works , a considerable percentage of the indigent ryots would have had the greatest difficulty in procuring their pro- per daily food, if it were not for the relief works ; as it is , they are at present enabled to tide over a very critical time without loss of life or bodily injury from privation. It is evident, without referring to the worst parts of the district on the south -west, that within some 15 or 20 miles south of Rungpore , were it not for the timely relief measures, numbers must have been permanently enfeebled , and have perished prematurely from privation ; not only many of the beggar - folk, who are now maintained by charitable relief, but some of the peasantry also , who have up to the present time been preserved in good condition, physical and moral, by the relief works now everywhere affording healthy employment .

17. There are no signs among the laborers of weakness or disease attributable to the present restricted means of the classes that supply rural labor. Whenever there has been a bona fide demand for employment as a relief measure, work has been opened in the neighbour- hood requiring it. Where supplies are short, moodies are commissioned to sell Government rice to the coolies at 12 seers for the rupee , and grain can be taken in part payment of work where local supplies run short .

18. To resume : serious anxiety is not felt regarding the condition and prospects of the people in view of the relief measures now organised , except as regards the tract prominently brought to notice in previous narratives , vis ., Govindgunge, Sadullapore, and Peergunge . The grain transports have been pushed on in that direction to ensure that the supplies shall be equal to all requirements . Money and materials for relief have been despatched. A native doctor, with medicines, was sent out at the first intimation of a probable outbreakable outbreak of cholera. It has been arranged that either the Magistrate or myself shall be present at head- quarters, so that any intelligence received may at once meet with proper attention . A Deputy Magistrate was sent to Peergunge, who , with an intelligent . assistant, is temporarily supervising relief, and looking out for the occurrence of distress . Previously, a Deputy Collector of considerable experience visited Peergunge, and noted its requirements . An additional officer of experience, Inspector Prokast Chundra Deb, was hurried off from transport work to the relief officer of Govindgunge on the first intimation of anything like an approaching crisis in those parts . The people there are coming in numbers to relief works . The part of the country is in a bad state for supplies by private importation , and the people are generally reported to be very destitute ; still Mr. Damant writes that there is no immediate danger of any loss of life from starvation.

The means for relief now being pressed forward appear to be equal to the emergency. The Magistrate has settled to go out to Peergunge and Govindgunge after conferring with the Relief Commissioner, who willbe at Rungpore on the 5th or 6th instant.

19. With regard to the details and statistics required, urgent reminders have been seut to the relief officers to obtain these .

The circles have been but recently organised. Many of the officers are new to the work . The necessary subordinate appointments have only just been filled, and clerks are on their way out or have only just joined . Though the relief circles are manned and active work is going on everywhere in the most unsparing way, the results of the work do not come up in detail as required, and the great increase of work makes it difficult with a small staff to keep up the requirements by official communication . Efforts are being made to procure the details and statistics regarding classes of people obtaining charitable relief, and it is hoped that a return may be submitted in the next narrative. There is such a demand for intelligent, trustworthy natives for all kinds of work connected with relief that it is impossible to get an agency of the desired efficiency, as to general attainments , and knowledge of English . All the public offices have been in some degree disorganised by the drafting off good, active officers on relief duty, and still there are difficulties in filling " relief " appointments properly, such as transport -clerks , golahdars , relief officers, assistants and writers, and road sub-overseers.

The relief officers have not the work of supervision well in hand, and they will be required now to submit and procure the submission of the details as to charitable relief required. [While engaged in writing this report, the station was visited by a most remarkable hail- storm . There had been a great increase of heat at about 4 P. M. ,M. , Saturday, April 4thApril 4th, when a gale and blinding dust -storm, accompanied with the rumbling of distant thunder, set in from the south-west. It blew a regular hurricane , sweeping the plain with clouds of dust. A drenching rain, which seemed to last two or three minutes only, cleared the landscape almost instantaneously, and then the wind blew very chill, and large hail- stones, bristling with icicles, battered down on the roof and verandah , and kept striking the ground-thud- thud-at intervals of 20 or 30 or 40 yards . They looked like a good handful of hail - stones compactly crystalised into solid lumps . As the wind was strong , they were projected with much force , almost point- blank for about a stone's throw, and then striking the ground with considerable sound, they 489 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874.

bounded along two or three times , becoming suddenly spent and motionless from their spiked shape. The largest of them were, in the solid part, about the size of a tennis- ball, but measured round the short, thick icicles jutting out all round, they were, some of them , about the size of a cricket -ball. Some had a star -fish and coral -like form. All had the flowing stalactite ap- pearance, which makes the rudest outline when frozen over pleasing to the eye . They certainly were most picturesque looking missiles . Some reminded of the spike-balls of iron, found at the end of old maces , and similar mediæval weapons . The storm was soon over , and the rain has done good . Fortunately the tobacco has all been cut and gathered, and none of the present crops have been injured.injured. The mango trees have suffered. Mr. Oram , an old resident of Rung- pore, informs me that he saw larger specimens than those outlined, the sketch of which is forwarded.]

20. Eighteen grain- thefts have been reported during the last fortnight . Two constables were detected in dishonestly disposing of a maund of the rice saved from the Moheegunge fire , and from the separate sums of money, aggregating about eleven rupees, found in the waist- cloth of one of them, it appeared probable that the offence discovered was not the only one committed by him. Both were convicted and punished for criminal breach of trust as public servants .

Petty pilferings of the Government rice while on transit to the golahs are attributed to the police and to the gariwáns ; a two -maund bag has been found half a maund short on reaching its destination . Under the present system it is difficult to get a thoroughly satisfactory explanation of deficiencies, or to make the constables and gárriwáns accountable for the same.

B.- RELIEF WORKS .

The number of relief roads has been increased from 49 to 56 .

New roads have been opened, and sub - overseers employed on them ; + roads are still kept in reserve. The numbers remain about the same, except in the Govindgunge circle , where about 10,000 people have come upon the relief works for support. In Govindgunge, the rate has been raised from 3 annas per 100 cubic feet to 4 annas.

scarce . In Govindgunge they are employed in excavating tanks and wells also, as water is very The relief works have been steadily pushed forward during the last fortnight . The laborers have been paid regularly, and there have been no complaints from them . Government rice is being disposed of at twelve seers for the rupee, but no account of the sales has been sub- mitted. In Peergunge, Govindgunge, and Borobaree sales have taken place .

C.- TRANSPORT OF FOOD .

With regard to private imports in Nesbetgunge thannah-in four villages Madupore, Sampore, Basuntpore and Ormaree, the relief officer found five thousand maunds of paddy stored. One resident of Sampore deals extensively in Julpigori rice, keeping a train of 16 carts, and hiring also for that purpose. Private trade is brisk in the interior, and ryots go long distances with their pack-bullocks to purchase grain where the market is slightly easier. Complaints have been made that the hiring of carteiring of carts and bullocks by the Government has inter- fered much with private trade ; and though the rates are high the cartmen regard it as " begûr" or compulsory work, and dislike it, although the rates are high . Formerly private parties could procure a cart and pair of bullocks for about Rs . 14 a month. The rate given a cart and pair of bullocks was first fixed at Rs. 7 a month. Subsequently the last lot were engaged at Rs . 20, and all now demand the same . Pack-bullocks are now being engaged at Rs. 7-8 amonth, and a corps is being organised. Several hundred maunds of rice have arrived for the Moharam Farnamagi , and also for the Tagores of Peergunge . The rice transport is working well, and there is no block anywhere . The despatches are less this week as the carriage by boats has been stopped ; 320 carts were received during the fortnight at Kallygunge, and 653 carts in all wore at work. Efforts are now being made to bring the number up to a thousand or more. The zemindars have been called upon to assist, and a specially appointed officer deputed to the interior to engage and collect carts . About 950 maunds were imported for private parties at Kallygunge and 800 maunds at Kolmughat during the last fortnight .

Inquiries were widely set on foot to organise a transport service for shallow water with dug-outs, but it was not practicable. The transport officer is about to visit Gaibanda to see if further means of transport can be opened up to Sadullahpore, partly by land and partly bythe Ghaghat .

D.- STORAGE OF GOVERNMENT GRAIN AT RELIEF WORKS .

The golahs are ready in part everywhere , and the transport of grain is being steadily effected in accordance with local requirements . The list of completed subsidiary golahs has not been received from each circle ; a complete list will be forwarded as soon as possible. Accommodation is now ready for 1,85,000 maunds .

Besides the above, about 6,000 maunds are being unloaded fromboats from Goalundo, and about 22,000 from steamer Prince of Wales . The whole of this is being stored in the Peergunge golah .

Aspecial report regarding the circumstances of the destruction of the Muhigunge golah and the disposal of the salvage rice has been submitted through the Relief Commissioner.

E.- ADVANCES TO PRIVATE PARTIES .

Numerous applications have been made for advances by all classes of zemindars , patnidars , lakhirajdars, jotedars,tedars, great and small. Where they are not known, local investiginvestigations are made by the relief officers ; and the bond fides of the application, the status of the applicant , the condition and number of ryots, and the propriety of the loan are reported on, and after such further inquiry as can be made advances are sanctioned under the best safe-guards that can be devised to insure their being applied as intended , and to prevent abuses .

F.- CHARITABLE RELIEF .

The numbers daily relieved is over four thousand . Exact figures cannot be given, as nð returns have been submitted from several of the annachatras .

There has been no instance of severe distress reported during the last fortnight, but many proper cases for relief are discovered by the officers on their village inspection; several new relief centres have been opened. One in particular at Dhaper hât in Sadullahpore, where the poor were found in very bad circumstances . (A road for relief work was opened there at the same time.)

The people who accept relief at the annachatras are nearly all by habit or infirmity unfit for work , and are of the beggar class ; such an abundance of relief has been provided for them (they are not a large number for the district) that they are very independent about attending the annachatras for food .

They murmur at the Government annachatra arrangements , and are unwilling to stay at the chatras in the day or to do any work . They object to remain for a second meal, and beg to be provided with the early and late meal together, once only in the morning , so that they may fill their bellies well and take their chance of getting what they can elsewhere for supper.

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 491

Where annachatras are near together, as at Sankamari (public) , and Radhabullab (private) , the more active of them manage to get a meal at both chatras . Ample arrangements have been made so far for relief centres , and if people of this class are found unrelieved, it is because they will not remain where food is provided for them at the chatras . When found in the villages, they are temporarily provided for with an advance of grain and money. At the annachatras every effort is made to see that they are availed of to the fullest extent in accord- ance with the spirit of the rules, so as to relieve want among a class which is now almost

entirely thrown upon organised public and private charity . The officers in charge of relief centres , public and private, endeavour to keep in attend- ance those who begin to frequent the chatra, so that their charitable action may contrast favourably with that of other relief centres, and may be as unrestricted as possible.

At the annachatras at Alaikury , the scale of food has been raised from 4 chittacks of rice and 4 chittacks of potatoes , to 6 chittacks of rice and 4 chittacks of potatoes , and half- a -pice for condiments . This scale is general . The average attendance now is 48 Mahomedans re- ceiving cooked food, and 60 Hindus receiving uncooked food . Before the rules of issuing cooked food to Mahomedans was instituted, the number taking relief was about 500 a day; when the cooked food system was adopted , the numbers fell at once to the present average , which has since been steadily maintained there without any complaints of distress.

Home relief in the shape of cotton for spinning and paddy for husking has been freely given. At the annachatras some women, able to do a little work, have been asked to take it, but they retuse, and it has not been pressed on them . In the Gobindgunge annachatras , the , relief officer has not adopted the cooked - food system, potatoes are scarce there , and half a seer of raw rice and a half pice are given to each person who comes for relief.

New cotton and rice -distributing centres have been established in the relief circles, and agencies open among the pradhans of the villages . In Sundergunge, the zemindar Baboo Annada Proshad Rai is now opening a cooked- food relief agency in one of his villages (Khamthana) .

The arrangement is for the zemindar to supply the rice , and servants to take charge of it and prevent waste and embezzlement, and the ryots with their families will come and eat the rice cooked by some of their own village people, who may be willing to serve at a house selected bythemselves.

It will be a kind of co - operative private arrangement, and relief will be given in a form less open to prejudice than in the public or private annachatra as ordinarily unengaged.

R. PORCH , District Relief Officer .

During the fortnight I have been through the Mahigunge, Sundergunge and Molong relief divisions and conferred with the relief officers at their work . In Mahigunge distress is spread over a large area, and I have given Munshee Muttiulla an extra assistant for the work . Iwent over the worst tracts and consider that the relief officers will be able to meet all require- ments . Sundergunge is a small circle, distress has been acute there, but the worst has now abated, and all is well in hand . Baboo Okhoy Koomar Sen of the Molong circle thinks his división safe; road works are plentiful, the people flock to them , and a large part of the western area of the thannah is well cared for by Baboos Luchmiput and Dhanput, who take the entire management of all relief in their estates. A large number of boys are everywhere on the roads, and, earning their four pice, materially assist their families . The state of Mr. Damant's sub -division, Govindgunge, Peergunge, and Sadullapore, is the most critical . The relief officer for Peergunge has not yet arrived, and I had sent down there , temporarily , Baboo Brojo Mohun Roy , Deputy Magistrate . In the tract of Govindgunge , west of the Kurutiya , a large part of the population has turned out on the road , men, women, and children, and they upplied with Government rice ; 6,000 maunds have been stored in the thannah , and the whole number of carts under the transport officer will now be employed in carting riceto Govindgunge and Peergunge, where the alloalallotments are 50,000 and 25,00025,000 maunds ,ands, respectively . The other divisions will be supplied by boat and pack -bullocks . I am now about to proceed to the circle of Mr. Damant's division . are SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874. 498

A fair aver- age of matar aud other cold- weather crops is expected . The sowing of sesamum and jute has commenced . The aous crop has been partly sown in the eastern part of the district and the sowing continues. As regards the condition of the people, I would beg to repeat the remarks given in my last narrative. I notice in the report of Mr. Gupta, recently received, the case of a person he observed starving in his circle, thannah Shibgunge, and in which I presume (though he does not mention it) that he gave immediato relief. I am calling for further report from him on this point (as he does not givo particulars). Fifteen grain thefts during the fortnight . I have already mentioned our particularly bad tracts , and in addition I should now mention the north and east of Shibgunge ; but I am of opinion that the whole district requires watching while these high prices continue , as of course isolated cases of hardship may be expected to occur even on the more favoured tracts. I have already sub- mitted a scheme to Mr. Robinson with the view of attaining this object .

This number is certainly large, but it must be noted that the number of men among the whole is only 7,980 . The labour exacted from the women and children is light, the pay comparatively good , and no wonder the works are popular in these times . I have actually heard of persons coming with their own laborer servants on to the road work , and people leave their villages en masse for the purpose. I shall direct the circle officers to endeavour to prevent very sinall children from coming on to the roads , as the people are bringing them very young. They are employed in beating the earth, and of course such relief is practically almost gratuitous, but it is difficult to draw a hard and fast line in such a matter. Another reason which tends to account for such a large influx is , in my opinion , the large proportion of Mahomedans, over 80 per cent. , in this district. Hindu women would naturally be averse to leave their homes . I hear of men actually staying at home and making their women go out and work for them . I shall be prepared to sell food when necessary to laborers on the works. At present they are supplied from the bazars .

C. TRANSPORT OF FOOD ,

The reports received show importation of 11,000 maunds of rice from Pubna, Dacca, and Mymensing districts by way of the Daokolea and Bengali rivers . 600 maunds of rice and 500 maunds of paddy from Rajshahye by carts . Now that the very considerable increase of 1,90,000 maunds of rice has been ordered to Bogra in addition to our previous allotment, I am uuable to say that our means of transport are sufficient . We have more than 600 Those sent in have been found unfit and carts at work , which nearly, if not quite , exhausts our returned. We cannot expect effectual aidby cart resources . Pack - bullocks and ponies have been this agency. called for from all police stations and out - posts , some of which have been sent in . The Serpur Police have also been told to send small boats to take rice from Bogra to Serpur. I have also asked the Commissioner of the division to have 50,000 maunds of our allotment sent from Goalundo to Joregatcha whence we can convey it in small boats up the Karotaya to Bogra. I have also written to Natore and Serajgunge for more carts, and the Sub - Inspector of Adamdighi has been directed to try and obtain carts from Natore. I really do not see what more we can well do. We might perhaps be able to utiliso some of our road labourers as transport coolies , and I will see what can be done in this respect . If the Government or the Relief Commissioner could send a supply of carts or other efficient means for transport from elsewhere, no doubt we could distribute our supplies more quickly ; six hundred more carts would be not more than necessary. Meanwhile, we must get on as best we may, and as the district is small , when the rice is once landed at Shohagipara, we could, in case of need , send sufficient for immediate wants to any part of the district from there without much delay .

F.- CHARITABLE RELIEF .

I have already reported in my last narrative on our commencement of charitable re- lief operations on the Government aided system and our committee arrangements . Mr. Atkinson, Mr. Collier, and Mr. Gupta, relief circle officers , have arrived and have gone out to their respective circles, viz. , Panchbibi and Badalgachi , Adamdigi , and Shariakandi . Mr. Nugent has also been out in Bogra thannah , of which he is the relief circle officer, and Inspector Umes Chandra Ghose is in charge of Khetlal . I propose now that Mr. Clay, District Re- lief Officer, has arrived , to put him in charge of Bogra thannah and to send Mr. Nugent, aided by two assistants , to take charge of thannahs Sherepore and Shariakandı, with special reference to the distressed account in these thannahs, which are on the whole comparatively well off.

I have remarked above on the subject of the increased number of laborers on our works . I am glad to be able to report a most seasonable rainfall on the 1st and 3rd April 1874 at Bogra, which I trust inay have extended largely over the khyar land. It has arrived most opportunely and cannot fail to do considerable good. Amun rice was selling at 10 seers in the Bogra market on the 6th April 1874. I would remark in conclusion that it should not be supposed that the whole of the very large number of persons employed on our relief works are very badly off. It may be taken as a fact that many comparatively well-to-do people have come to them . But with reference to what I have said above with respect to light labor and good pay, I would not be understood as recommending either the increasing of the security of the labor- test or reduction of the wages. The object of Government is to save life , and although in many cases the pay maybe received by people who could exist without it , yet on the other hand I consider that it would be unsafe byby means of a hard and fast rule to deprive many others, viz. , those really in distress and often with large families of what is no more than adequate for their wants . We are in urgent want of at least three native overseers or sub - overseers ; I trust they may be sent at once .

READ-

The Fortnightly Narratives of the Burdwan Division for the period ending 4th April .

1. Hooghly. On the whole the account given of the condition of this district is satisfactory. Prices aro stationary ; there is no marked distress of a general character any- where, and no very great demand for relief work . Only 1,650 persons are employed on Government work and 7,812 on private undertakings ; of the latter, however, only 2,147 are said to be local laborers . The organisation for charitable relief is very extensive, there being no less than 186 sub - committees, besides four large sorais or public kitchens on the great lines of traffic. 901 persons daily are receiving charitable relief.

2. Howrah. Mr. Grant was specially ordered to include in his report the relief works and charitable relief operations in Howrah . It is not satisfactory to find him still omitting to furnish any information on these matters.

3. Bankoora.- Prices show here a tendency to fall, and in the distressed tract of Moheshra work has been provided for all who require it . The Commissioner has again sent Mr. Larymore to inspect this pergunnah, and his report will be awaited. The numbers on Government relief works were 2,740 in all , while about 2,000 more are employed on private works . About 1,200 persons daily get charitable relief.

4. Beerbhoom. There is no marked change for the worse in this district as yet . About 3,600 persons are on relief works , and 683 are daily getting charitable relief. 5. Burdwan . 'The Government has already had special report upon the increase in distress in the Bood- bood sub - division of this district . The Collector has now personally ascertained that things are worse here than he had at all anticipated . The fover has of course reduced the condition of the people of this part below the standard. It is hoped that the Collector will be able to show that he exercised from the first due vigilance as to the con- sequences of want supervening on chronic disease. Cutwa sub -division also appears to be more distressed . The other parts of the district are not very badly off. The table show- ing the number on relief works is not very clear, and the column for the average daily number is wrongly totalled. Apparently about 13,000 persons are on the works , while 9,137 persons are in receipt of charitable relief. The charitable relief is administered by the district committee, five sub - divisional committees , and 225 village committees . 6. The Lieutenant-Governor being about to visit the Burdwan District himself, will not here make any further remark.

7. Midnapore . The state of this district is not now such as to cause any alarm or anxiety. The Jungle Mehals, about which some fears were entertained , are apparently not badly off; and though some distress among the weaving population near Chunderkona had shown itself, this has been met by starting gunny- weaving and opening food depôts for charitable relief. The measures adopted scern sufficient .

CALCUTTA, The 14th April 1874. }

No. 17T. , dated Burdwan , the 10th April 1874 .

From-C . T. BUCKLAND, ESQ . , Commissioner of the Burdwan Division , To The Offg. Secretary to the Govt . of Bengal , Statistical Dept.

I have the honor to forward herewith, in original, the fortnightly narrative for the dis- trict of Burdwan up to the 6th instant .

My previous letletters will have prepared the Goverument for the receipt of more un- favourable accounts of the state of the Bood-bood sub -division , and the Collector states that the number of applicants for relief is increasing at a rate which he did not at all anticipate . It is to be regretted that he did not take earlier and more active measures to make himself acquainted with the state of the sub -division, but now that he has become more alive to the difficulties with which we have to contend , I trust that the measures which are being taken for the organisation of charitable relief will be found sufficient for the protection of the people.

The Collector complains of the non-receipt of the Jehanabad sub-divisional report, but it reached him on the 7th April , and contains no information of any material importance .

The Collector has appended a copy of the proceedings of the charitable relief district committee, and of the rules drawn up for the guidanceguidance of the relief sub -committees . I beg to recommend that these may be separately published in the Calcutta Gazette .

No. 11, dated Burdwan , the 6th April 1874 .

From- E. H. WHINFIELD, ESQ. , Officiating Collector of Burdwan , To The Commissioner of the Burdwan Division.

I have the honor to submit the narrative for the fortnight ending to-day.

A.- STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

2. The Raneegunge Deputy Collector says that the supply of rice is plentiful ; that rice is still flowing in from Midnapore and Bankoora ; that the grain trade at Raneegunge town is very brisk ; that prices have risen about two annas a maund, and now range from 11 to 12:30 seers of best rice, and 13.5 to 13.91 seers of common rice for the rupee ; that no rain has fallen; that there is " no immediate cause for anxiety as to the condition of the people ;" that rice is procurable everywhere ; that there is no considerable demand for employment on the relief works ; that the weaver class has been taken in hand, but even in their case the need 19 not very urgent ; that in places inspected by him during the fortnight nothing like local distress among the weavers was found, but on its becoming known that it was intended to relieve them they applied for relief in large numbers ; that a few cases of distress amongst beggars and travellers have coine to light , and that oven the village sub - committee do not allege the existence of any inisery or starvation at present.

For my own part I do not think that there are any grounds for anxiety about Ranee- gunge at present,

In Bood -bood, I am sorry to say the case is otherwise . The number of applicants for relief in that sub -division is increasing at a rate which I did not at all anticipate. In my last fortnightly report I mentioned that several food depôts for the distribution of cooked food had been opened there , and the attendance at some of these , notably at Gulsee near Kanoo , was very large. I have therefore thought it best to go over some of the more easily accessible parts of the sub - division in company with Baboo Bagalananda Mookerjee , and endeavour to gange the amount of distress for myself. Accordingly I visited Gulsee and Kamoo villages near.Kunoo junction , Oorgram , Mahata , and Dignugger near Gooshkara station , and Pogram, Kolianpore and Bhedia near Bhedia station . Also I have been to Bood -bood itself, and visited the villages of Eral and Bhalkee. The result of my enquiries is that there is most undoubtedly a great deal of distress there . This distress is more severe in the fever- stricken villages , such as Dignugger , Kamoo , & c . , but it prevails in a less degree in almost every village I visited. The condition of some of the people I saw was very wretched. One man, who had been worn by long - continued attacks of fever , and recently by want of proper 498 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22, 1874 .

food, said that he was accustomed to sit all day in a tank to ease his pain. The laborers (Bagdis, Haris , Doms , and so on) complained very loudly of the want of work , and it appeared that many of the men had emigrated to Cachar and elsewhere, leaving the women and children. The so - called respectable classes were nearly as loud in their complaints as the poor. Sonars complained that their trade was at a stand -still ; napits, that people have given up shaving ; cultivators , that the mahajuns have refused the usual advances of grain; brah- mins, that their sources of income have failed ; chowkidars, that their chowkiran lands yielded next to no crop, and that their money dues (dwar mashara) are not paid ; fakeers, cripples, and lepers, that charity is no more ; weavers , that advances were no more to be had. Allowing of course for some exaggeration in all these complaints , still the looks of many of the complainants were enough to prove that they were in the main founded on truth . I should add , however, that I did not hear of any deaths from starvation . When this was asked about , the invariable answer of course was that many had died , but on asking for names and details , I found it impossible to arrive at any single authenticated case of death from starvation in the villages I visited. Deaths of fever - stricken persons of course there have been. The Deputy Collector has visited some villages in the west of the sub -division, and his report is gloomy. The price of rice at the large marts continues nearly as low as in other sub - divisions, but in the interior it is only procurable at the rate of 10 seers the rupee, and even less . At Bhedia , for instance, I found the cutcha seer of only 58 tolahs selling for 5 pice, and at Eral 14 chittacks of the cutcha seer of 72 tolahs cost 5 pice . The wheat and barley on the banks of the rivers has all been cut, but a good deal of teel is still on the ground. In some parts the people are eating the paddy - husks (koonro ) , which are generally given to cattle.

What has been done in the way of relief is set forth under the proper headings below . The Cutwa Deputy Collector gives a somewhat less favorable account of his sub - division than in former narratives . He says , however, that rice is everywhere procurable for ready money, and that the allegation to the contrary means only that mahajuns are demanding unusually high terms for making advances, but adds that if the rains set in early aud the season proves a good one, they may probably relax their terms . He says teel has been as extensively cultivated in this sub -division as in Bood -bood. He states that the condition of the people, especially in Ketugram and Minglecote, is becoming a greater cause for anxiety dayby day; that petty thefts are increasing, and the plea of starvation is more frequently heard from the culprits , and that the number of confessing thieves in March was 9. It is not impossible that some of these confessions were made with the view of getting admission to thejail . At Patna in 1866 , if I remember rightly, a number of persons actually petitioned to be imprisoned in the jail . The Deputy Collector mentions that the cultivators are still unwilling to work , but in some cases are beginning to do so , especially in Ketugram . He estimates the number of indigent laborers in Cutwa and Munglecote at over 11,000.

I am afraid distress is on the increase in Cutwa as in Bood-bood . The great rush of applications for relief which has been experienced in the past fortuight has no doubt (as you have observed) , beon much stimulated by the organisation of village sub - committees all over the country, and by the constant flying visits paid by various officers to almost every quarter , but that distress really is increasing in Bood- bood and Cutwa I have no doubt whatever.

The Jehanabad Deputy Collector has not sent in his fortnightly narrative, and I must beg that some notice he taken of this delay . It was only a month ago that his attention was particularly called to the necessity of submitting these narratives with punctuality.

I may say, however, of both Jehanabad and Cutwa , as well as of the Sudder sub -division , that I consider there is no need for any anxiety about them at present . The only parts where there is any appearance of distress is the western half of Sahebgunge thannah adjoining Bood-bood .

B.-RELIEF WORKS .

3. The annexed Statement I. shows all the road and other public relief works now going on under the charge of the Executive Engineer, the Embankment Engineer, the sub- divisional officers , the town committees , and chowkeedary punchayats and private persons . I would particularly draw attention to the circumstance that the demand for work in the Jehanabad sub- division (old Benares road) is very small, as it is also in the Sudder and Culna sub -divisions (Buddipore road and Kana Nuddee works) . The demand for employment in Raneegunge, too, would seem tobe but small . Work has been commenced on the road from Kanoo to Sahebgunge, but the returns have not yet come in. The numbers shown in the statement of the roads and works in charge of the sub - divisional officers of Jehanabad and Kanoo are estimates, as their returns have not been received . The Maharajah is carrying on tauk - works at Culua and Burdwan , and Baboo Hitlal Misser at Bood -bood and Mancoor.

C.- TRANSPORT OF FOOD .

4. Importation continues from the districts on the south . The total export by rail during the third week of March was 10,946 maunds, and total import 4,030 maunds . The returus for the last week in March have not been received .

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22, 1874. 499

D.- STORAGE OF GRAIN.

5. The district committees have resolved to store grain at Kanoo and Bood-bood for the food depôts.

E.-ADVANCES TO PRIVATE PERSONS .

6. These are shown in the appendix A, Statement II . Advances for purchasing grain continue to be asked for , as remarked in my last report.

F.- CHARITABLE RELIEF .

7. The arrangements for charitable relief are being extended and adjusted by degrees . The following is an outline of them . A district relief committee and five sub -divisional committees have been organised ; 225 village sub - committees have been appointed all over the district, that is to say, rather over 10 to each thannah , or about 1 to every 15 square miles . In the vast majorityt majority of cases these village sub - committees now act only as reporting agencies , i. e. , as a sort of intelligence department to bring distress to the knowledge of the district and sub- divisional conimittees . But where the pressure of distress makes it necessary, they are used as administrators , distributors of relief, and managers of the food depôts and relief- houses which are established wherever necessary. The village sub - committees in charge of these food -depôts have received instructions to distribute cooked food to the infirm gratui- tously, but to exact some kind of labor from the able -bodied. At the last meeting of the district committee, a set of rules for the guidance of these village sub- committees in charge of food depôts , was approved, which will be translated and circulated to them ; a copy is annexed to this report. At the present moment there are no less than 27 food - depôts at work chiefly in the Bood-bood sub - division. The number has been swelled during the past fortnight, not only by the institution of many new depôts but also by the inclusion in the list of all the old fever food - depôts , the cost of maintaining which was accepted by the district committee at their meeting of the 28th ultimo , in consequence of the fever relief funds running short . Besides these, the Maharajah has threo food - depôts at Burdwan , Culna, and Bood-bood . Wherever distress increnses and the number of food -depôts becomes so large as to be unmanageable by the sub -divisional officer and his committee, as has been the case in Bood-bood, it is intended to appoint relief inspectors at the rate of about two to a thannah to visit and supervise these food -depôts . A mohurir to keep the accounts, cooks at the rate of one to every 100 men , and work overscers at the rate of one to every 50 men, are also attached to each food -depôt . These persons willbe selected from among the distressed persons if possible . The sheds required will be built by the recipients of relief. The able-bodied men will be employed on any adjacent road work , or else at a tank in the neighbourhood ; women will be employed on the various kinds of light - labor specified in the rules. Provision has also been made for making advances of money or material to weavers, to Beeparies to import grain, and to Pardahneshin women for spinning thread and husk- ing rice. Simple accounts willbe kept and abstracts submitted weekly. It is intended to utilise all the existing inspecting agencies , Medical , Educational , and Police , so as to exercise more complete supervision over these food- depôts, and enforce the application of the labor- test in the case of all able-bodied persons . The cultivators , and other so- called respectable classes, have been, of course, kicking against this regulation and holding out for gratuitous, relief, but now show symptoms of giving in in some places . Rice for the use of the depôt IR about to be stored at Bood - bood and Kanoo. The complete charitable relief organisation above sketched out is at present only required in Bood- bood . But something of the same sort will have to be set going ere long in Cutwa. The relief operations of the whole district are superintended by Baboo Bogolanando Mookerjee and an assistant . The prescribed statement of relief food-depôts will be found marked III in the appendix , as also a list of the food- depôts now opened , and the attendance at them . The statement does not show the particulars of advances to weavers and others which are made in many cases direct by the district and sub -divisional committees .

8. Ordinarily cooked food is to be distributed . If any persons , for any sufficient cause, object to taking cooked food uncooked food may be given to them, but all must do some work except the sick and infirm .

9. To each person is to be allowed daily half a seer of rice (pucca weight) , 1 chittack of dâl, and 2 chittacks of vegetables , with a proportionate quantity of salt and mussalas ; milk and sago may be given only to sick persons who produce a doctor's cortificate declaring that they require them. Milk may be given to children under 3 years of age .

No. 14, dated Midnapore, the 6th April 1874 .

From-H . L. HARRISON, Esq. , Collector of Midnapore, To The Commissioner of Revenue, Burdwan Division .

I have the honor to forward herewith the report on scarcity and relief in this district for the fortnight ending April 4th . I regret to find that the last report arrived late. It was despatched from this office on the usual date .

' Α.

2. Grain continues plentiful throughout the district . The surplus stock however of Midnapore is practically exhausted , and what now påsses north along the Bankoora road, and north -west along the low level canal , is almost exclusively Orissa rice. This is stated by all the dealers, and a few days ago, at the Sudder ghat , I questioned each of some 50 gareewans and only found one man whose load was the produce of Midnapore . The purchasers first exhausted the nearest centres of surplus stock , and have gradually proceeded further as these have become exhausted .

3. Prices continue stationary with a slight tendency to a rise, especially in the extreme west, where 161 can only nowbe obtained instead of 18 and 17 as was the case when I last reported . The imports from Singbhoom referred to have ceased ; whether the spare stock is exhausted, or whether the low prices which it induced have discouraged further imports , can- not be certainly known till a renewed rise again gives it an opportunity of profitable entry . As a consequence , the supply at the principal hats is decreasing rapidly , as shewn in the follow- ing table:-

Certainly I do not anticipate any severe famine, i. e. , scarcity of grain in these tracts this year such as occurred in 1866. If my previous reports gave that impression, it was my failure to express myself correctly . In that year 50,000 persons died ; in this year I do not suppose 505 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874.

a tenth part of that number would be in danger, even if we folded our hands, and let matters drift. All I contend for is, that in this tract its own supply will not suffice for consumption, while extreme want will ensue before prices rise so high as to turn back the stream of trade to this quarter from the rest of Midnapore . On the other hand , if the Chota Nagpore Division has a surplus on which we can draw, we are perfectly safe ; if it has not , sale of rice on behalf of the committee will afford great relief at the worst period, and greatly diminish the propor- tion of the population which under any circumstances will have recourse to jungle-roots and fruits, and inferior grains for support, as a mere result of high prices .

4. I also submit that, even if we are taking necessary precautions, we are doing so at no appreciable expenditure, and therefore the error is harmless . Experience already shews that the state of public confidence has much to do with the amount of rice thrown into the market in the jungle mehals . From all sides the report was universal that rice could scarcely be procured even at the hâts ; a few hundred maunds came in from Singhbhoom ( for it has now been ascertained that it was a very small quantity, and has since quite stopped) , and the market re- mained easy for nearly four weeks . It is now again lightening, and the price st Silda is reported to have risen 11 seer per rupee . It is therefore extremely probable , that if ever a crisis does come , the benefit which we can confer by promptly tendering a few hundred maunds for sale at con- venient places will extend far beyond the mere quantity brought forward . Even the fact that we are known to have these small stores spread over the country, for sale if need be, produces some effect in bringing the stores of petty cultivators into the market , as they see that they ineur no risk of starvation if they run short. At any rate, the experiment cannot cost the commitee above Rs. 200 to 300 as the difference between cost price and ultimate sale , which I submit is purchasing confidence at a cheap price.

5. In accordance with your orders , all public employers of labor have been called upon to return the number of laborers on their works; they had not had tiine however to respond to the call, and on the other hand the occurrence of three holidays in the days preceding this report , has led to the non -receipt of many of the usual returns for relief works . I therefore ask your permission to defer to next report a full account of the laborers on each work. Suffice it to say that this branch of relief is in a more satisfactory state than any other . The Joki embank- ment has been commenced in Iidgelee ; the high level canal is employing large bodies of laborers , and the embankment repairs are doing the same . Our road relief worke , therefore , only fulfil the functions of gleaners , and pick up the residue , who either being weak, or not able to satisfy the contractors , or being tied to their homes, are unable to proceed to a distance to labor .

6. It is mainly with this view that I have had recourse to the system of paying a subsistence daily rate on the special relief roads . It does not attract the coolies from other work when obtainable ; on the other hand , it is well adapted to enable the feeble and sickly to tide over the crisis , and supports the largest number at the least cost . That it is an expensive form of work admits of no doubt .

7. It at present proves very well adapted to these ends . The numbers fluctuate greatly, as every full of rain, every local opening for labor, immediately takes off three- fourths of the coolies ; as soon as it is over they come back again. Also they of course demur to the rates, which are , however, amply sufficient to support health, and therefore do not come forward till in real need.

8. The general indications of the fortnight are that the demand for labor is not increas- ing in the jungle mehals . Most of the ordinary working population have long since come on the canal and embankment works ; and it is only the portion that does not general migrate for labor that we have to assist . The useful rainfall in February has afforded large openings for employment to this class .

9. On the other hand, the demand for labor is visibly increasingcreasing inin the north - west of the district , specially round Keshpore and Narajole . A new relief road, Keshpore to Narajole, has been marked out and begun , and a declaration sent to you for publication . It has already 500 laborers upon it and will soonbe completed ; we have two more roads in the same neighbour- hood Narajole to Dasspore , and Nowada to Nimtollah to construct , and I hope that this will suffice. The most densely populated thanna of all , Dasspore, appears to be perfectly secure, with its silk bund and general prosperity, as no demand for labor at subsistence rates is made from there .

10. There is no block now at the Sadder ghât , as the stream of exportation towards Bankoora is somewhat diminishing . The 50 garries 1 refer to in the early part of the report, had, all but five , been ferried over, but they find it convenient to halt on the sands during the day, and reserve their going to Bankoora till nightfall .

D. 11. No Government grain is stored in this district .

506 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

12. Advances to private parties for land improvement will not be of any consequence in this district . The favorable rules were only extended to the jungle mehals, the greater portion of which is under Messrs . Watson and Co. , either as putneedars or izardars . They of course require no advances , neither do the zomindars of Nyabossan ( Moharaja of Mourbhunye ) or Nyagram, or Baboo Ramnidhi Coondoo , the mobajun , who is virtually the zemindar of Jhargram and Chcearah . These zemindars and Messis . Watson and Co. occupy nine - tenths of the Jungle Mehals , hence all the applications have come from tenure - hollers intermediate between the zemindar and the ryots . In many cases the security was not satisfactory, and the zemindar was generally opposed to the advance, hence I have rejected two -thirds of those that are ripe for decision, and haved have only sent up eight to you for sanction; even in these the pro- priety of making the advance is very problematical, and generally against the wish of the land- lord. I infer from the decision which you have arrived at in two already rejected by you , that you are averse to making the advance where the zemindar opposes it, and if so probably nearly every application will be ultimatelv rejected.

13. I must confess that I do not think this result will be much to be regretted . As I have said our. means have been husbanded, and we have thus far no difficulty in meeting the demand for labor ; and on the other hand , I have little doubt that, with very few excep- tions, the main object of the application has been to strengthen the claim of the intermediate tenure -holder by making Government his creditor as regards that tenure.

14. Operations to relieve distress among the weavers, and perhaps also among other traders, such as braziers, have been pressed on during the fortnight . As estimated in a seря- rate letter, I fear that our expenditure in this work may aggregate Rs. 40,000 before the next harvest , though this 1 look on as a maximum figure .

( 1).-We have now four sub - divisional committees . That at Contai however will , I hope , have nothing to do beyond collecting subscriptions .

The subscriptions promised up to date are-

The treasury being closed I cannot state the precise amount collected, but it amounts to a reasonable portion of the sum subscribed.

We have three special sub - committees already appointed , one for Chundrokonah , one for Ramjeebunpore , and one for Kuanpore cum Mowbunge ; several others are in course of formation. Distress is greatest at Chundrokonah and Kuanpore , which is adjacent to it though not in the township .

(2) (3) & (4) . There is only one special relief circle, viz ., the thanas of Chundrokonah , Ghatal, Keshpore, and Outpost Narajole, which temporary Deputy Collector Baboo Gossain Doss Dutt isis specially entrusted with.

(5) .-A large food depôt has been opened at Chundrokonah, which relieves both that place and Kuanpore . Over 100 persons are already fed at it daily . This is independent of the epidemic depôt relief, which , however, is reported as diminishing . No food relief was found necessary at Ramjeebunpore , where the people are much better off than at Chundrokonah , though some distress is apprehended a month hence .

15. As there were many applicants for food - relief at Khcerpoy, some of whom were obviously in great need of it, a depôt was opened, but out of 72 candidates the deputy collector , whose judgment in these matters can be trusted, only passed eight; it is, therefore , at present on a very small scale.

16. The othor forms of relief already initiated , besides out- door work from municipal funds, are two : (1)-Husking rice . The rice needed for the food depôts is purchased unhusked and made over to distressed women to husk and give back cleaned rice , reserving the usual proportion as their remuneration . Forty -five women are thus supported at Chunderkonah and four at Kheerpoy ; but it is reported that 50 women can advantageously be relieved in this way at the last- named place . ( 2)-Weaving gunny cloth . I reported last fortnight that I had sent out two convicts to give the necessary instructions . I see that this measure has beendisapproved of, and they willbe recalled ; but I saw no ready means of instruction except this, and the number sent was very small , involving the very minimum breach ofjail discipline .

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22, 1874. 507

17 .. The movement is at present succeeding well . Two hundred weavers in Chunderkonah wished to learn, but only 20 from Chunderkonah , eight from Kheerpoy, three from Ramjeebun- pore, and three from Kuanpore, could be taught from the jail loom , and paid daily wages while learning: the rest must learn from them; and the Deputy Collector has received authority to advance jute and take back gunny cloth, and advance thread and take back cloth from all distressed weavers , fixing the quantity on the principle of allowing a profit of 9 to 10 pice a day for a full day's gunny work , and 7 to 8 pice a full day's cloth work . The extra profit for gunny is both to compensate the gunny - workers for the novelty of their work , and to offer some inducement to them for learning it ; and also because the committee infer from the orders of Government on the subject that they will be able to dispose of the gunny cloth with greater facility.

18. The only Government expenditure duringduring the fortnight has been the contribution to the committee paid to meet collected subscriptions on the 31st March 1874 , Rs . 2,754-10 : grand total to end of week, Rs . 2,954-10 .

19. I enclose the reports from Contai , Tumlook, and Gurbetta . The Gurbetta Deputy Collector has been told before that Thana Gurbetta is especially under his eye, and that he ought to report particulars of any distress he apprehends . He has already ample funds to re- lieve it . The sub - divisional officer of Tumlook has taken steps to relieve the distress in Kassi- gorah, which is chiefly due to the inundations of the Cossye in July. The report of the Sub -Deputy Collector will be forwarded when received .

No. 9-S . R. , dated Burdwan, the 9th April 1874 .

From-C. T. BUCKLAND , Esq. , Commissioner of the Burdwan Division , To- The Offg . Secretary to the Government of Bengal, Statistical Department.

Ihave the honor to submit herewith the fortnightly narrative for the fortnight ending 6th April 1874, which have been received up to date.

2. Hooghly. The Collector's report is carefully drawn up , and needs few remarksl There has been no change of prices and no marked progress towards distress . The tota. number of persons employed on public relief works under the district road committee is given as 1,650, whilst 7,812 persons are employed on private works ; but of these only 2,147 are returned as local laborers, 109 tanks are being excavate being excavated or improved by them . In addition to these , 718 laborers are employed on 85 tanks in the Hooghly and Chinsurah municipality, and 90 men on 8 tanks in the Serampore municipality . Altogether , including some other works, the Collector, in paragraph 22, shows that 12,808 persons are obtaining public or private employment, but there is some apparent inaccuracy in the figures as totalled.

3. As the bulk of the rice exported from Chandernagore by railway is chiefly for distances over 150 miles, it is clear that it passes towards Behar and beyond this division .

4. Charitable relief is being administered through 136 sub-committees, and the numbers receiving relief are given as 234 men, 472 women, and 195 children, or less than 1,000 persons daily. In addition to the sub-committees , there are four serais for supplying food to neody travellers, and these are managed by the police, and this appears to be the best arrangement as explained by the Collector .

5. Howrah . The Magistrate of Howrah has submitted a very brief report, but he will be requested to state in future the number of persons employed on public roads as relief works; for instance, on the Juggutbullubpore road, and also to notice the proceedings of his charitable relief sub- committees at Khanakool and Juggutbullubpore .

6. Bankoora . The report of the Collector is not so full as I could wish . He does not state the price at which rice is being sold in pergunnah Maheshara, which is the most distressed part of the district , although in other parts of the district prices have a tendency to fall.

7. In the fifth paragraph the Collector refers to certain information which I sent him of some Bankoora laborers who appeared at Burdwan, saying that they could get no relief in their own country. Their statements turned out to be rather exaggerated, and when they were provided with work at Burdwan, they soon recovered from their exhaustion of their journey to Burdwan. The statement shows that 2,740 persons are being employed on public relief works, and of these , 679 are on the Gungajulghatty and Saltora road, and 688 on the Moroolee and Mejia road , which roads are intended to provide for the wants of the Moheshara pergunnah.

8. The statement in paragraph 6 regarding persons seeking work from Maunbhoom is probably an exaggeration, similar to thathat ofof thethe Bankoorah people at Burdwan. But provi- sion is being made for a considerable expenditure on a road from Bankoora to Purulia, to meet any possible wants towards the Maunbhoom frontier, and I have applied for a special extra grant of Rs. 16,000 for this purpose.

508 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

9. Charitable relief is being given to about 1,200 persons daily, and about one-third of these are in the Bankoora station, and about one-fourth of the number are at Mejia. The proceedings of the charitable relief committee are reported separately, and sent for publica- tion in the Calcutta Gazette .

10. I have sent my special assistant , Mr. Larymore, to make a further inspection of the arrangements going on in pergunnah Moheshara for public works and charitable relief, and shall submit a special report if there is any thing requiring the interference of Govern- ment .

11. Beerbhoom. The report of the Collector notices a tendency to a rise in prices , but it is very slight , and the average rise in price is only five chittacks in the rupee. The Collector, however, anticipates further pressure ; and I have been urging him demi - officially tomake full provision to meet it by road relief works and charitable reliof organisation. I also sent my special assistant up from Burdwan to meet Mr. Hime and the Executive Engineer at Bhulpore, which is about the centre of the distressed part of Beerbhoom , and he brought back a satisfactory report of what he saw, no distress being as yet visible or un- relieved. I have nothing to add to the Collector's report except to notice that the export of rice by the railway still continues .

12. The reports from Burdwan and Midnapore will be forwarded when received . The latter is necessarily a day behind the others, as the dawk takes two days from Midna- pore toHooghly.

3. Amount and kind of grain in stock in the hands of zemindars , traders , ryots, &c.- Therehas been no change in prices in the fortnight . At Dwarbasinee in Pandooah 600 maunds have been added to the stock of 400 maunds already reported as stored by Baboo Joykissen Mookerjee. In Dhuneakhally a total amount of 61,200 maunds is reported to be now in store in the hands of zemindars . In Hooghly 23,343 maunds are reported . As you have expressed an opinion that it is doubtful whether the enquires into stocks of rice are advisable, I shall order the police to discontinue them. At Govindgunge in the north -east of thana Balagurh on the banks of the river is a large gunge called Govindgunge , here are stored some 7,100 maunds of imported rice , and about 3,000 maunds are stored at Mugragunge, in Bansberia.

SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874. 509

4. Rainfall. Rainfall nil at the sudder station, but there is a slight fall of rain reported from Serampore, Bydabatty, and Chunditolla. A storm with hail and rain occurred on the 24th March in the neighbourhood of Ooterpara, and did some injury to plantain trees .

5. State of the crops . The til reported to have been planted in paragraph 9 of the last narrative is reported to have failed in thana Bansberia, but is growing in the other thanas . Rain is required everywhere for the til , the vegetable crops, puttle, turmooz , kakoor, &c. , and for the aous sowing . The cutting and crushing the sugarcane is still going on. A good deal of new sugarcane was planted out after the rains 16th and March, and there is promise of a good crop next year. The crop now in the mill was a good one . The mango crop is good in some thanas, fair in others , and promises badly in Dhuneakhally, Kristonugger, and Bydabatty. The land is prepared everywhere for aous sowings on a very extensive scale . Four or five good showers will be necessary to get the whole crop in, and such may reasonably be expected at this season .

6. Condition of the people . In Pandooa the police report that the smaller agricul- turists require employment to enable them to purchase rice and save their stores, but there is no lack of employment at present . The District Superintendent of Police who visited thana Balagurh reports that some Boona coolies on Gooptipara Chur, that were settled there in former years by indigo-planters, though reported to be in distress are not actually so . He says-" They will not leave their churs to look for work . Relief works in that part are not yet a necessity, though a few persons having no cultivation going on are glad to resort to them." The Joint-Magistrate went out last week and started some road repairs close to the chur to which they can come if they want work .

7. Of Dhuncakhally the Sub - Inspector writes that about three-fourths of the popula- tion are husbandmen. Though the amun rice yield was small , the people were aware that it would be wise to lay in stocks, and did so as much as they could. When rice rose to 9 scers for two or three days in February last, the people were alarmed , and much rice was imported. In the west of the thana, near the Damoodur, there were rich harvests of sugarcane and vegetables, but distress may arise in the east of the thana unless rain falls and the aous be got in. In that case money and grain will be freely supplied by mahajuns and zemindars.

8. Except isolated cases of indigence arising from accidental causes, the number of which is shown under head " Charitable Relief," there is no distress at present in the district . Work is abundant, and yet the local laborers , who avail themselves of it , are not very numerous . Near the Damoodur there is great difficulty in procuring labor, and it is evident that the good crops of sugarcane , & c ., have compensated in the tract along its banks for any failure in the rice crop. The Serampore Sub-divisional officer says there is no want, unconnected with disease, except in the case of a few highigh caste women who are lakhi- rajdars and cannot get in their rents.

9. No cases of starvation have occurred during the fortnight . To prevent all possibility of such cases amongst the numerous travelling population, two more serais have been established on the Bydabatty feeder road, as will be stated under head " Charitable Relief."

10. The figures given in paragraph 10 of the last narrative were reported by the police. Since the establishuiourt of the committees of relief, the police have ceased these particular enquiries, and have been instructed to make over their lists to the sub -committees .

11. Grain thefts and robberies . A grain theft of two maunds of rice from a house is reported from Bansberia thana, and another from Kristonugger thana. This last was committed by an old offender . In the former case no clue has been obtained.

12. Condition of special tracts . In the east of Pandooah , in Ballagurh , in the neigh- bourhood of Bhastara in thana Dhuncakhally, and in parts of Bydabatty, Chunditolla, and Hurripal, cultivators of small holdings are glad to get work . The District Superintendent of Police visited Hurripal on the 24th ultimo . He says that the raius brave facilitated the planting of sugarcane and vegetables, the potato crop has turned out much better than was expected, and the sugarcane, of which a good deal is grown, was a fair crop . The profit per beegah of potatoes has boen Rs. 40 , and of sugarcane Rs . 35. On the immediate banks of the Damoodur there were good crops of all kinds , and his conclusion is that, notwithstanding the failure of the main rice crop, there will be no more distress than at present unless prices riseagain.

17. The work on which these laborers are employed is almost exclusively tank -digging or re-digging . 109 tanks are being thus excavated or improved.

18. Besides this , Baboos Joykissen Mookerjea of Ooterparah, and Rajkissen Banerjea of Telinipara, are employing a daily average number of 142 coolies,plies, of whom 53 are local, on the excavation of the Ghea Nuddee at their own expense.

19. In the Hooghly and Chinsurah Municipality 718 laborers are employed on 85 tanks at the cost of the proprietors , after notice under Act III ( B. C. ) of 1864. Of the laborers,492 are men and 226 women. In the Serampore Municipality the number of laborers thus employed is 90 on 8 tanks .

24. There was no up- inward traffic or down - outward traffic, that is to say, no rice or grain brought from Howrah or Calcutta by train was taken out of any of the stations in the Hooghly district , nor was any rice despatched at Hooghly stations towards Calcutta or Howrah . The 1,786 maunds of rice sent up-country from the various stations is, I suppose, Eastern Bengal rice brought by boat to Serampore,por Chandernagore ,Chandragore, Hooghly,Hooghly, andand Muggrah,Muggrah, and in hackeries from Culna and Govindgunge to Pandooah .. The two or three boats laden with rice from the eastern districts, and several large merchants are engaged in the trade there.

25. The other food -grains sent up-country are chiefly from Chandernagore station. The grain probably comes from Bhudessurgunge.

26. I have not hitherto given these figures , as the transport of grain by railway through this district did not appear to me to come within the scope of heading C, as detailed in circular No. 80. I have merely , therefore , remarked in former narratives that large quantities of grain are transported up -country from Muggrah and Chandernagore.

29. The paucity of advances is due to the unsatisfactory nature of the securities tendered by the petty lakhirajdars and mokurareedars, who chiefly have presented applications, and to the difficulty in getting the consent of superior holders when the security is not manifestly an independent saleable interest. Those applicants who offered sufficient security and showed good titles got their advances in a very short time.

35. These serais are established at police outposts or thanas and are under the police . An establishment of a cook and a sweeper is maintained at each . In paragraph 11 of your letter to Government forwarding my last narrative , you state that they should be made over to relief committees . I would respectfully beg that they may be allowed to remain as they are for several reasons . First , the relief sought at the serais is generallynerally urgent,urgent, and it cannot be expected that the members of the sub- committee should be at a relief house day and night whilst the police must be there ; secondly, I have tried to get two committees to take charge of such serais, and the result was a failure .

G.- FINANCIAL RESULTS .

Expenditure during the fortnight under report-

36. No disbursements were made to the Executive Engineer or others on account of relief works during the fortnight . Rs . 4,725-13-6, being the equivalent of the subscriptions of the district committee, were credited to the district committee during the fortnight . Rs . 750 were paid away for tuccavee advances .

37. These are the only payments made from Government funds . I request to be informed whether it is intended that the accounts of the district relief committee are to be incorporated in this narrative, and if so, in what form ? I ask this question in reference to the last portion of paragraph 11 of your No. 328T . to the address of Government, of which I have to -day received a copy .

Dated Howrah, the 4th April 1874 .

From-T . GRANT, ESQ. , Officiating Magistrate of Howrah , To The Commissioner of the Burdwan Division .

In continuation of previous fortnightly reports, I have now only to say again that I have nothing whatever to bring to your notice that has not already been reported . Things remain in all respects unchanged . I have no material whatever from which to make a new report . I could only repeat my two last preceding narratives without addition or variation, and there is nothing for me to say except that those communications are as applicable to the present date as to the dates they bear.

No. 16, dated Bankoora Collectorate, the 6th April 1874 .

From-W . R. LARMINIE, ESQ. , Officiating Collector of Bankoora ,

To The Commissioner of the Burdwan Division .

I have the honor to submit my narrative for the fortnight ending the 6th April 1874. STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

2. Rice, wheat, barley, &c . , are to be had in sufficient abundance throughout the district, exceptept in Moheshra, which , as I have already observed , is dependent uponupo imports for its supply . Baboo Ragunath GhGhosh has, during the last fortnight, sold a large quantityquantity of rice in the pergunnah at lower rates than those at which the people there had been before able to purchase it . I I am still of opinion that money should have been advanced for the purchase of rice in that pergunnah , and I think that the absence of this commodity pinched more than the want of work, for road -making in Moheshru commenced as early as the 15th February , and disinclination to go more than a few miles from their houses was the only obstacle to procuring employment. 3. Prices have been stationary , but the tendency is to a fall. Best rice is selling in Bankoora at 12 seers per rupee, common at 134 , and coarse at 14 seers 6 chittacks . Prices at Bishenpur are slightly lower ; new wheat and barley are selling respectively at 15 seers and 24 seers 8 chittacks per rupee .

4. The rubbee crops have been reaped ; cotton , til , and indigo are doing well . 5. There has not been much alteration in the condition of the people . The poorer classes are, as might be expected , more or less pinched , and, where work has been provided, I think the laboring classes are better off than the smaller agriculturists . In consequence of information furnished by you that some persons , residents of Meliara, in this district had been found destitute in Burdwan, I instituted enquiries , and found that work in tank-digging , & c . , was available in Meliara, and that charitable relief was being given within 4 or 5 miles of that place . I have now commenced a road running from Barjora 516 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22 , 1874 .

to Gangajalghati , through Meliara . In my last report I mentioned works being ready for the Moheshra people, if the two roads now in progress were insufficient . I referred to the roads from Mejia to Barjora and from Gangajalghatito Barjora, which had been previously reported to your office; these would be, in fact , continuations of the two roads which are being made . There have been no cases of death from starvation, and no grain thefts or robberies have been reported.

6. It may not be out of place to mention here that some 30 or 40 people came from Manbhoom, crying out for work, and stating that none was to be had in their part of the district .

RELIEF WORKS .

7. A table is annexed , shewing the various works in progress and the number of people employed. I have been endeavouring to get similar returns from private persons, but they come in irregularly, and are often inaccurate . However, I estimate the total number thus employed at about 2,000 daily.

8. A road will shortly be openedbe opened to meet the Purulia road at Moheshra, in the Chatna thana. The Manbhoom authorities have commenced work on their side.

9. It will, I think , be necessary to give more work in Onda thana when the road from that place to Taldangra is completed, or even sooner, and the road cess committee are of opinion that the , best line would be from Bankoora to Taldangra, viâ Kurpa , as the circuit would thus be completed .

10. From what I have seen myself, and from the reports of others, I believe that the laborers are in good condition. They receive the ordinary wages in actual cash .

11. Besides the regular relief works , we have arranged , from the funds at the disposal of the district relief committee, to re - excavate three tanks , one at Saltora , and one near each of the lines of road under construction, at a point about midwaynidway betweenbetwe extreme ends . On these works, those only are to be employed who from physical weakness are unable to carn a sufficiency of food by piece - work on the roads .

TRANSPORT OF FOOD .

12. Rice is still being imported from Midnapore . The conveyance of rice to Moheshra is the only transport agency requiring notice .

ADVANCES TO PRIVATE PARTIES .

18. The number of applications for tuccavee advances has now reached 373, and sums aggregating Rs . 28,803 have been granted , of which Rs . 21,211 have actually been drawn . The making of new tanks or the re -excavating of old ones are almost the only purposes for which the money is being agent .

CHARITABLE RELIEF .

14. The total number of persons receiving charitable relief is now about 1,200 daily, as per list annexed. According to promise made in my last report, I visited Mejia and its neighbourhood. The number of persons receiving relief had increased so much that I thought it best to open three new relief centres in the pergunnah , and I have since arranged for the opening of a fourth . All the Moheshra relief centres are now managed by paid overseers, supervised by an officer specially deputed for the purpose , all acting , of course , under the direc- tion of the various sub - committees .

15. The arrangements for relieving weavers have now been completed in Bankoora itself, and the Bishenpoor sub - committee is arranging for the requirements of that town .

No. 18, dated Soory, the 6th April 1874.

From-R. D. HIME , Esq . , Officiating Collector of Beerbhoom , To The Commissioner of the Burdwan Division .

I have the honor to submit my district narrative for the fortnight ending 4th instant .

A.- STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

Prices continue almost stationary since last report, but exhibit now a rising tendency ; the temporary fall was probably due to the payment of the March Government " kist" forcing rise into the market. There will now , I expect , be a gradual steady rise of prices , and a constantly increasing demand for employment till the commencement of the rains withdraws the labour- ing population from public works to agricultural operations . Every effort is being made to mect this demand by starting new relief roads and keeping others in readiness for any emer- gency. There is as yet no difficulty in procuring supplies at the current bazar rates, (vide Appendix 1) . No grain robberies have occurred, and no cases of starvation have been reported during the fortnight. Helpless want is being relieved by the charitable organization as it shows itself.

B. RELIEF WORKS .

Three new relief works , Nos . 6 , 7 , 8, are set on foot since lastreport , viz ., the road from Ilambazar to Doobrajpore (No. 6) , that from Burwan to Panchthoopee ( 7) , and that from Gonootia to Kotasoor (8 ) . The last is undertaken by Mr. Jones , Manager of the Gonootia silk concern . Three more relief roads, viz . , those from Poorunderpore to the river Adjai ( the Burdwan road), from Bulpore to Benglehatra , and from Laghata to Kolgram, will shortly be commenced. Ihave also under consideration a proposal from the Deputy Commissioner of the Sonthal Per- gunnahs to construct the portion of a proposed road from Doomka to Mullarpore railway station, which will come within my district . The surveys for this road will shortly be made . The number of laborers on district works of all kinds is shown in the Appendix, form C.

C. TRANSPORT OF FOOD .

No. 8714, dated Chota Nagpore , the 31st March 1874.

From-COLONEL E. T. DALTON , C.S.I. , Commissioner of Chota Nagpore, TO-C . BERNARD, ESQ. , Offg . Secretary to the Government of Bengal , Scarcity and Relief Department.

I have the honor to submit my relief report for the fortnight ending Monday , 30th March . 2. The area in which a pressure from scarcity is hard on the people has no doubt in- creased rather than diminished since last report . In about a third of the Maunbhoom district, 520 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

inHazarechaugh and Palamow , the high prices of food are more or less feltby all classes ; but it is only in places where food is not only dear but difficultto procure that bad symptoms of distress have been noticed , and our recent action has chiefly been to introduce both employ- ment and food into such localities .

3. The weather has been during the last fortnight, on the whole , bright and favorable. The mowha crop received less injury than was anticipated from the rain which fell at the commence- ment of the period under review. Accounts received from all quarters, except from some parts of the Hazareebaugh , give fair expectation of its probable yield of flower, which is just now falling . A good mango season is still expected, and the rubber crop, which is now nearly reaped, will give in most places an average return; but the area of land cultivated this year being so much less than usual, the supply of food thus obtained will not materially affect prices . The prospects of the mowha and the rubbee harvest have, however, temporarily reduced the number of people employed on relief works . For two months or longer the chief food of the poor classes will be mowha .

4. Relief committees have been formed in all the districts and sub - divisions of districts and other places where they were likely to prove of use . 5. Hazareebaugh. Mr. Beadon on returning to Hazareebaugh, after consultation with me, was met there by information that ten deaths had occurred in the north - east of Kodarma, itwas alleged from starvation , and a pilgrim was reported to have died from the same cause on the Grand Trunk Road . Further inquiry locally made by Mr. Beadon himself or by his assist- ant , Mr. Tobin , shewed that with three exceptions each of the dentis could be traced to ordi- nary disease . The exceptions being ( 1 ) Ramni Goalin, a lone woman who lived in an isolated position, and the cause of whose death was uncertain ; ( 2) a woman of 60 years of age who apparently, from all that was known, had sunk under privation; and in regard to the third, it could not be ascertained that any such person had ever existed . Mr. Beadon says , all who died were" old, infirm , friendless, and isolated." There are no doubt many people so situated and circumstanced in the sparsely inhabited portions of the district ,istrict , unknown and unthought of till death ensues . It is not an easy matter to find out how such people sink or to know in time that they are in want of food .

6. It was not considered till this occurred that Kodarma was at all in a precarious posi- tion. As a Government estate it had met early attention . Mr. Beadon visited it himself in January, and Baboo Rajgopal Roy, Deputy Collector, was subsequently sent there to make advances and to give employment , and a tehsildar was appointed in whom Mr. Beadon had great confidence. Irrigation works projected by Rajgopal were opened in several places ; but notwithstanding the indigence now disclosed , very few sought employment . The people on whom the scarcity most told were of the non - working class , and arrangements have now been made to supply to such persons gratuitously with cooked food . There is no want of work ; the road from Burhee to Gowa, which will go right through Kodarma, has been commenced, worked both ways from its centre in Kodarma . Orders for opening it had been issued a fortnight before , but the services of the Assistant Engineer, Mr. Percira , were required to align it, and he could not be spared sooner from other important works . The latest accounts show only 50 persons employed .. From this it would be inferred that there cannot be widespread distress ; but Mr. Tobin remains in Kodarma , and I have desired that a special report on the condition of the people there may be forthwith submitted . The Kodarma ryots have just received payment from the opium departinent of a large amount, and this is, no doubt, the reason that few of them care to work.

7. But the inspection tour made by Mr. Beadon in North Khurruekdea forced on him the conclusion that the ordinary means of supply was inadequate to meet the deficiency of food in some portions of that tract and on the Grand Trunk Road, and this induced him to tele- graph to Government for 28,000 maunds of rice . The Government have promptly responded , and have ordered by rail to Pachumba 25,000 maunds, which is rapidly arriving . This will, Distribution of Government I think , be sufficient , and Mr. Beadon , in a letter dated the rice. 3,000 maunds at each of the chuttees on the Grand Trunk Road, viz ., Chowparun , Burhee , Barkotta, Bugodhur and Doom- ree . 2,000 maunds in Kodarma and 10,000 maunds in reserve atPachumba.

27th, says he will require more unless his projected pilgrim road is sanctioned . He proposes to distribute the rice as shown in the margin . He will have, besides, stores of grain in the bhandars of the Wards ' estates , Dhunwar and Gowan . Mr. Beadon is most anxious to undertake the pilgrim road recommended in my letter No. 239T of the 25th February last . It would certainly be a most useful work , and Mr. Parkinson , who has not much to do at present, could be directed to survey and mark it out .

8. Mr. Beadon has advanced to merchants Rs . 33,000 to stimulate and ensure a larger rice importation for Hazarecbaugh station and other parts of the district south of the Grand Trunk Road , and has also arranged with the zemindar (styled Rajah ) of Koonda for the storage of rice as a reserve in the western parts of the district . The arrangments now effected will, I think , prove sufficient , but if more be necessary , the Ranchee merchants are quite ready to engage to store rice here fer Hazarecbaugh. I 9. I have proposed to them that they should confine their operations to the importation of rice from Gangpore (where a fortnight ago it was selling at 32 seers for the rupee) , and from Sumbulpore, where I believe it is cheaper. The Palamow traders are now doing this , but for them it is a three months' journey . If the Ranchee and Lohardugga traders will follow my advice (and if necessary they might be assisted by loans) it would greatly economise carriage and accelerate the delivery. Palamow pack- bullocks (travelling only as far as SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874. 521

Lohardugga would carry thence the rice imported from the southern districts , and the Hazareubaugh traders would transport it from Rauchee.

10. A road has been projected as an additional work in Dhunwar ( Khurruckdea ) , from * Sanctioned by Board. Dhunwar to Darundah ( Khurruckdea) , to cost Rs . 700 , * half of this cost borne by the road committee and half by the estate . This I have sanctioned subject to confirmation by the Board .

11. Lohardugga. On the 28th instant a meeting was held at Ranchee to establish a District Relief Committee ; this was not called for by any distress in Chota Nagpore Proper, but as a measure of precaution and to obtain funds for general as well as local relief purposes . Upwards of Rs . 3,000 were subscribed at the meeting .

12. I have , with permission of Government , availed.myself of the services of Mr. F. T. Peppe, Sub -Deputy Opium Agent , who volunteered to act as an agent to make advances under the Land Improvement Act in certain detached villages in valleys of Tamar to the south and in Tori to the north -western corner of the Chota Nagpore zemindary . Tori is the only consi- derable portion of Chota Nagpore which appeared to me likely to need assistance . I reported on it in my letter No. 49T of the 16th January 1874. The manager, Mr. G. K. Webster, has been employed there for some time making settlements . He has opened some small works , sanctioned at the cost of the estate , which gives present employment, and we have road pro- jects which will give more . Mr. Webster reports under date the 28th instant , that with the mowha there is no want of food at present , though in June and July pressure maybe felt . This we shall have no difficulty in meeting .

13. Palamow . Since date of my last report Lieutenant Grey and Baboo Gopal Chunder Mitter have been deputed as relief officers to Palamow, the latter with a portion of his estab- lishment as special Commissioner, including a good Native Surveyor and Baboo Prosunno Coomar Daniary, Assistant Engineer , passed through this station on his way to Palamow by dawk , on the 26th instant .

14. Mr. Forbes continues to give unfavorable reports on the condition of the Palamow people resorting to the works . He says when they first make their appearance, that many of them are in an emaciated state, but pick up after working a few days , and are then able to do a full complement of work . This would indicate that the wages of their labor gave them sufficient sustenance, but he finds the price at which the rice is retailed by the bunias to the workpeople employed give them only 8.55 seers for the rupee , and they were clamoring for higher wages . So long as it is found that those who come on relief works thin recover their condition and others retain it, I would deprecato any increase. It appears that it was only at one place , Turhassi , that the Assistant Commissioner found that the rice was being retailed at 8:55 seers for the rupee. He should have interposed and supplied rice from the nearest store at 10 seers . This would have brought down the retail price , for it is to be observed that at the open markets in Palamow proper the highest price quoted * And have since fallen . is 12.36. * Mr. Forbes informs us that hitherto the market prices , which he calls the wholesale prices , have been given in the price -current statements , and determines in future to give these bunia prices . This I object to , but he may give both as he does in the table in paragraph A of his report of the 21st instant . The bunias in some places set up their shops where the laborers are working , and this of course gives them some claim to add to the market rate .

15. My last report gave 12,562 as the total number employed on the Government relief works; these figures were taken from the February return . The return of the 7th March gives 7,866 , and Mr. Forbes' report of the 21st ultimo 7,936 . The decrease is said to be owing to the withdrawal of the agricultural laborers for the rubbee harvest, and it is probable that the number will not rise to the February figure till the mowha, which is yelding well, is exhausted . Mr. Forbes is however of opinion that it will reach 20,000 at an earlier period .

16. The harvesting of the cold - weather crop appears to have caused a lull in importation of rice for a short time which made the Assistant Commissioner fear it was falling off . But 1 am credibly inforıned it is now brisk as ever, and I have been assuredby the traders here that there is no fear whatever of its subsiding . I have however moved for sanction to make further advances to stimulate importation up to Rs . 50,000,* * Since sapetioned .

which we can use if we find the trade slackening . I have been in- formed that rice brought in Gangpore at 32 seers for the rupee was conveyed on pack -bullocks to Gurwah , and might without loss to the importer have been sold at 25 seers, but it was disposed of at from 18 to 14 seers . With such a profit we must expect that the importation of rice from the south will continue till the supply from thence is nearly exhausted .

17. The Deputy , Commissioner received my instructions some months ago to watch narrowly the export trade from Chota Nagpore Proper to Palamow, and he is of opinion , in which I concur, that it is going on satisfactorily .

18. My latest information is in a letter from Lieutenant Grey, dated the 25th instant. On his wayto Daltongunge he passed a body of about 400 people going to work, the majority women and chileren , who said they had been sent to workby the head of the family as there was not food in the house sufficient for all its members . Lieutenant Grey found this to apply to other places and gangs seen by him . Only a portion of the family seek work, and 1 hope it will be found that the withdrawal of so many will leave sufficient in the house to sustain the remainder . A few destitute people were seen in the town of Gurwah whom the local com 522 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUITA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

mittee relieved , and on road -work Lieutenant Grey noticed four women claiming to be Raj- putins by caste and one Brahmani , but they were people who had long been accustomed to work in the fields . On the whole, the people did not appear to Lieutenant Grey to be very emaciated, and he found them particularly patient .

19. Mr. Forbes tells us of a report that a number of respectable Mahomedans of Hosenabad, most of them widows, were in dire distress , and the Assistant Superintendent of Police was deputed by the relief committee to inquire , and it is presumed to relieve them if necessary. Mr. Forbes lias also, he says , been informed by a zemindar , that grain - thefts are occurring daily though not reported to or by the police , and that 75 heads of cattle had been slaughtered , he supposes , by chamars , for the meat and skins . He has directed inquiry by the police, but he must also report how such things , if true,, are not known to and reported by the police.

20. Manbhoom . The condition of this district is apparently better than that of Palamow . Grain is still exported from the eastern pergunnahs, and as yet we have had no reason to suppose that the southern zemindaries were in distress . The bad parts are on both banks of the Damoodur , and between the Burrakur and Damoodur , and by the latest accounts , extend to the common boundary of the Hazareebagh district . The Deputy Commissioner, in his report of the 25th to Government observes that there is no appearance of any general distress us yet amongst the people, but isolated cases of suffering for want of food are becom- ing more common than they were, the great difficulty in the distressed parts of the district was to obtain food , for though in the estimate of the Deputy Commissioner there is still a good stock in the hands of the grain - dealers , they are keeping it back in the expectation of higher prices; it is difficult in many places to obtain what is required for the people on the relief works . I believe that when the Government grain now daily arriving at Burrakur has been distributed amongst the several selected places for storage, that the great pressure now felt will cease , and all danger will for a time be averted . Colonel Rowlatt has arranged for having 5,000 maunds at Rughoonathpore, 5,000 at Gavindpore, 5,000 at Nirsha, 1,000 at Poddardih , 1,000 at Jherriah , and 10,000 willbe kept in reserve at Burrakur . I do not think more will be re- quired.

21. The number of people on road relief works is represented in Colonel Rowlatt's report of the 25th as 2,642. He informs me that the laborers are in very good condition , which he thinks is due to the early period at which work on bandhs and roads was provided ; but con- sidering that Manbhoom has a floating population of two to three hundred thousand people of low caste, whose ordinary condition is that of the laborer, the number given as taking to road work appears very small . I am inclined to think that one cause of the comparative paucity of workpeople in Manbhoom may be found in the system of contract under which road works are done there. Of course the contractor takes his fair share of work out of each man, and it may be that he is not very partial to weak or sickly work people . Colonel Rowlatt's attention will be requested to this .

22. The report of the 25th gives no estimate of the numbers employed on the works for which advances have been given under the Land Improvement Act. Colonel Rowlatt tells me that from want of supervising agency he is unable to obtain accurate returns, but he roughly estimates that there are on all works not less than 20,000 people employed .

23. With my No. 760 , of the 25th March 1874, I submitted to Government a report which Mr. Mackenzie, the Extra Assistant Commissioner of Gobindpore sub-division , had re- ceived of death of the four boys at villages near the Damoodur, in Jherriah , it was alleged, from starvation . These casualties have not yet been tested . The Zemindar of Jherriah reported that hehad heard of two deatlıs only, and was of opinion that the starvation may have been super- added by the villagers to excite commisseration . If this be so , the ruse was successful as the zemindar, Rajah Rashbehari Singh , has started a tank as a work for the people of the distressed villages, and opened a relief - house within easy distance of them . A branch committee has been established for Jherriah , and subscriptions raised sufficient to meet the relief measures immediately required . This zemindar is apparently doing his duty to his people, and the Sandra Rani is behaving with her usual liberality . I have given my sanction to an additional relief work in the Gobindpore sub - division. A road from Gobindpore, through Beliapore Baghmara, to cross the Damoodur near Ghurbur, which is well calculated to give effective relief to the distressed villages adverted to above. The line has been examined by Colonel Rowlatt and Mr. Mackenzie . By this new route a considerable saving of distance will be effected between Gobindpore and Purulia . I need say no more about Manbhoom , as the Deputy Commissioner's report of the 25th, now before Government , is full and clear, and I have no later information of importance except what is above given .

24. Singbhoom . I have received no report from Singbhoom since the 18th ultimo . Cap- tain Garbett has been in camp all the time , and on the date of the latest lotter I have received from him , the 20th ultimo, he was , I am sorry to say , suffering from fever . IHe says he has beenmaking a thorough inspection of all the new Kolhan reservoirs , and that they are getting on famously . He calculates that about 4,000 people are employed on them daily . This is in addition to the road works, so that labor has been provided for a very fair proportion of the inhabitants of the Kolhan. Captain Garbett concludes as follows :-

" I do not now believe, as I at one time feared , that we shall have general and severe distress in the Kolhan . I am, however , quite sure that but for the assistance rendered we should have now had sore trouble." SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874. 523

CALCUTTA; The 10th April 1874.

No. 610, dated Purulia, the 6th April 1874 .

From-COLONEL E. A. ROWLATT, Deputy Commissioner of Maunbhoom , To The Offg . Secy. to the Govt . of Bengal , Scarcity and Relief Dopt .

With reference to paragraph 3 , Government circular No. 154- S.R , dated the 16th January last, I have the honor to submit my narrative for the fortnight ending the 4th instant.

A.- STATE OF THE COUNTRY .

Since the importation of Government rice has commenced and the mohwa flowers have begun to fall, the price of rice has in some few places become somewhat easier, and supplies are more readily obtainable , as those who have stocks of grain begin to see that it is of no use holding out for excessive high prices . In remote and inaccessible places especially , where there are no bazars or large dealers , great scarcity still prevails, and in these it is reported that the lower classes are living almost entirely on mohwa, which has begun to fall most opportunely , and will yield a full crop in the southern parts of the district, and not much less in the centre of it . It is variously estimated that the mohwa crop will last the people for from one or two months,aths , according as trees abound or are scarce. It unfortunatelyfortunately happens , however , that in the worst parts of the district there are but few trees , in fact that along the road between Raghunathpore and Chandankiari on the Hazaribagh road, which I rode over a few days ago , I saw but very few trees , and in Torang and Hesla I was told they had all been cut down for fire-wood. In the sub -division of Govindpore mohwa trees are pretty thick , and the crop is reported to be a good one . As the consumption, however , of mohwa will be greater this year than is ordinarily the case, it will not last so long as usual , and very little will be left for storage and consumption hereafter. The prices of rice and pulses by the last reports received from the police up to the 4th instant, are as follow :-

The mango crop will be almost an entire failure .

There are now no crops on the ground except the sugarcane, which has been lately planted . A small quantity of cheena seed has been procured from Arralf with which to make an experi- ment, but it is too soon yet to know wheather it will succeed or not .

The only people who are at present suffering from actual want of a sufficiency of food are the beggars , numbers of whom abound in all the towns and large villages . These find it no longer possible to pick up a scanty subsistence in their usual haunts, and are, therefore, flocking into the relief centres where large numbers are being fed daily on cooked food. The laboring classes are still in most places pretty well supplied with work, but many of the reservoirs and tanks for which tuccavee advances have been made are now finished or nearly so, and large numbers , hitherto employed on these works, will soon be without employment, so that the resort of larger numbers to the roads until rain again fulls may surely be expected . As soon as rain again falls ploughing , which has now almost ceased , will recommence. It is reported that a large number of those just above the class of out-of- door laborers are now living on one meal a day, and distress is , I fear, likely to increase amongst this class .

Cases of distress have been reported from several localities , specially all along the borders of the Damudah river in pergannahs Nowagarh , Jherria, and Pandra , but for all these work has been provided in the construction of reservoirs and on roads undertaken as relief works . In some villages in pergunnah Chelliama great distress is said to prevail, and Captain Samuells , the helief Officer at Raghunathpore, has proceeded there with a supply both of food and money, and will make the necessary arrangements for the relief of these villages through the sub- committee at Chelliama, which has lately been established . Distress has also been reported in some villages in the north -east of pergunnah Charra, to where rice will be sent to - morrow; and from pergunnah Bagdah thirty - three persons have been sent inby the police to Purulia, who, being beggars. were entirely destitute of the means of subsistence . Several cases of deaths from starvation have been reported , but these , I am happy to say, after full inquiry , have been found to be deaths from disease, and were evidently reported by the villagers as deaths from starvation in order to excite sympathy , and in the hopes of obtaining gratuitous assistance in food and money.

Thefts of grain have increased, and one case of plundering has taken place at Hudlachak inpergunnah Chelliama , the object of which was clearly to obtain food . The number of persons in hajat is also increasing , and getting beyond the powers of the present staff of officers to deal with . An officer with full magisterial powers to take up the police cases is urgently required.

The tracts referred to in my last narrative still continue the most distressed , and I am sorry to say the area still continues to increase by the addition of distress in pergunnah Nowagarh in the west of the Govindpore sub -division , and that of Bagda to the south-east of Purulia, which is now in as bad a state as any of the other pergunnahs of the north -east portion of the district .

B.-RELIEF WORKS .

The number of roads now in progress of construction as relief works amounts to 12 , and sanction has just been received from the Commissioner to continue work on the Govindpore and Purulia road , which will afford employment to those in distress in pergunnahs Chelliama and Jheria, though which it passes, and in which this road has yet to be completed . The dis- trict, however, is' suffering for want of supervising agency, as for all these works , measuring 2524 miles in length , we have only one Executive Engineer, one Supervisor, and four Road Overseers, who are quite unable and insufficient in number to superintend the work properly, and orders have beenreceived transferring the Supervisor to Singhbhoom .

The roads are as follows , and their length, and the number of laborers employed on each , is given as near as the returns , which are still imperfect , will admit . I believe that very many more are being employed , and hope shortly to get correct returns of the numbers actually at work on them :-

The roads numbered 1 , 2, 4, 5 , 6 , 8, 9 and 11, have been completely marked out, and parties are at work all along them. Nos . 3 and 7 are marked out , except in a few places , which will soon be done ; the work , however, is not interrupted in consequence . No. 10 has been marked out as far as Tundihnagar , and I am now in correspondence with the Deputy Commis- and Giridih crossing over the Burrakur river. and have sioner of Hazareebagh whether it should go on straight to Serampore or join the lazareebagh still to be marked out, and orders have been sent to place laborers on these roads as soon as possible from the distressed villages along the Damudah , and not wait to do so till the whole lines can be completely laid out . The laborers obtain their supplies at the bazars , hats , and shops in the vici- nity of the works , and some of the contractors have also established depôts from which the labor- ers draw their supplies at the current rates of the neighbourhood . The condition of the laborers on the roads is satisfactory; they are paid, if they work as daily laborers, at 6 pice the men and 4 the women, whilst those who take the task - work make about the same or a little more if they work hard. There has been a difficulty in procuring tools in sufficient numbers fast enough, but this has been pretty successfully metby purchases made at Raneegunge, Bankoora, Jhalda, and other places in the district . The smelters and blacksmiths of the district have been kept in full employ much to their advantage, as the price of kodals has risen from 7 or 8 to 10 or 11 annas each, and the number of kodals and picks purchased for use on the roads, tanks and reservoirs has been very large indeed .

The excavation of three large tanks in Purulia from the municipal loan lately made by Government has been commenced , on which 125 people are employed, and one other has been commenced on as a relief work by the district relief committee, on which 263 persons are employed, who are not able to do a full day's work .

TRANSPORT OF FOOD .

Food is still being brought up largely from Singhbhoom and the south and south- west of the district into the central and north -eastern pergunnahs both by pack -bullocks and carts . There appears to be no difficiency of carriage, and every effort it was possible to make has been resorted to in order to improve the road leading from Chaibassa to Purulia after it enters this district at the Mankoi ghat on the Subarnarokha river . The Government grain delivered at Burrakur by the East Indian Railway has been rapidly transported along the Grand Trunk Roadto Nirsha and Govindpore , and by the Bur- rakur and Purulia road to Rughunathpore. To show the immense advantage of having a good road to make use of in a case like the present , I may mention that carts loaded one day at Burrakur delivered the grain the next morning at Rughunathpore, a distance of 21 miles , which , had there been no road, would have taken them at least three days ; and this they did although they had to halve the loads and make two trips each across the sands of the Damudah, to prevent the necessity of which , and to guard against the possibility of a block there, in case it may become necessary to transport large quantities of grain from Barrakur to Rughunath- pore, a temporary light causeway is being made across the bed of the Damudah , which will effectually prevent any such block taking place.

STORAGE OF GOVERNMENT GRAIN . Between the 28th March and 3rd April , 11,742 maunds of Government rice have been

deliveredby the East Indian Railway at the Bunakar station , which has all been despatched by cart and stored , at Nirsha 2,542 maunds , at Govindpore 2,766 maunds , at Raghunathpore 5,434 maunds , and 1,000 maunds have been sent to be stored at Poddardih in Pandra per- gunnah for the use of the sub - relief committee at that place. Golahs are being constructed at all the above places , and in the meantime storage accommodation has been arranged for in various private and public buildings which have been taken up for the purpose . The sub- district relief committee at Manbazar is also arranging for the storage of 1,000 maunds of rice at that place for the use of the branch committees subordinate to it .

ADVANCES TO PRIVATE PARTIES AND THEIR RESULTS .

Advances for the purchase of grain have now been made by me to 45 individuals , amount- ing altogether to Rs . 17,595 , out of the lakh of rupees placed at my disposal by the Govern- ment for that purpose , and applicants are still coming forward .

A loan of Rs . 4,000 has been received by the Purulia municipal committee with which a debt of Rs . 1,000 has been paid off, and the balance is being expended in the clearing out and improvement of several large tanks in the town, which hitherto have been sinks of fiithiness and hot beds of disease . Advances to the extent of Rs . 58,550 have also been made to 228 private parties for land improvements , which have been expended in the construction of reservoirs and excavation of tanks . Most of the persons who have taken these advances have applied them faithfully to the purpose for which the loans were granted; a few, however, have done either little or nothing ; and one or two instances have been reported in which the money has been applied to other purposes , such as paying off debts, getting married , & c . I therefore have directed a prosecution under Section 417, Indian Penal Code, to be instituted agaist one person who has thus been guilty of obtaining a loan under fraudulent pretences , which will , I have no doubt, have a very salutary effect, and act as an ellectual stimulant on those who may have intended to apply the money to a difforent purpose from that for which it was advanced. I fear very few others will now apply for advances to whom such could be safely made .

CHARITABLE RELIEF .

On the 11th of March a district relief committee was established at Purulia, and shortly after sub -divisional committees were formed at Govindpore and Raghunathpore ; aud on 526 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

Saturday, the 4th instant, I presided at a meeting at Manbazar, where a sub -divisional committee was also formed, and arrangements made for setting sub -committees at work at four places in subordinationto it . It was arranged that a store of 1,000 maunds of rice be laid in at once, and depôts established at Manbazar and Bagda for the supply of cooked food to all persons in distress who are unable to work , and also to render assistance to all others who might be in need of it. Cooked food is also being supplied daily at Purulia, Govindpore , Podardih , and Raghunathpore to about 600 indigent and diseased, persons , who are quite in- capable of working , and are no longer able to procure alms in their villages . The arrange- ments at present are sufficient to meet the necessities of the times ; but should distress increase to a greater extent, further measures will have to be adopted, and more officers will be required to carry them out.

At the present date there are the district relief committees at Purulia, three sub-divi- sional committees at Govindpore , Raghunathpore , and Manbazar , and twenty - two sub com- mittees at work spread over the district from the north - west to the south - east part of it, and at present these will suffice . To each of the sub - divisional committees Rs . 1,000 have been sent in aid of the subscriptions they have raised ,to enable them to commence relief operations at once. The most intelligent and respectable persons of the neighbourhood have been selected to form the sub -committees . Where cooked food is supplied , the members of the committees are each provided with a certain number of blank tickets , which are given by them to those seoking such relief, on which the name of the person is written. With these the persons admitted to receive food go to the depôt , when the ticket is numbered , and the number and name of the party entered in the register, and then all who can show a ticket get food and no others receive any. By this means every case is properly inquired into before relief by cooked - food is supplied , and none who are able to work are ad- mitted , but are sent to labor on the nearest relief works . Sheds are being built at the depôts for the accommodation of the lame and blind , and those who are unable to return to their villages after taking their food .

Cotton will also be given out to poor women of respectable families , who may be in distress , to spin into thread, for which they will be paid in rice , and this thread will then be imade over to indigent weavers to weave into cloth , for which they also will be paid in rice , and the cloth then be sold or given away on charity to those who are unable to procure any themselves . This will, I consider, be necessary even for decency's sake, as it is pretty certain that those who cannot feed themselves will also be unable to provide clothes . It is also intended to assist indigent silk- weavers in the same way by supplying them with cocoons .

RESOLUTION.

SCARCITY AND RELIEF DEPARTMENT .

Calcutta , the 9th April 1874 .

READ-

The Maunbhoom Narrative for the fortnight ending 4th April 1874.

1.. The falling of the mohwa crop and the importation of Government rice are said to have had the effect of rendering prices easier in this district. Common rice is now nowhere dearer than 12 seers per rupee, and in the south of the district can be got at 16, 17, and even, 18 seers . The mohwa crop has made a material addition to the food supply, estimated at from one to two months food , according as the trees are scarce or abound . Unhappily they are scarce in the north , where distress is worst . Only the begging class are suffering from actual want, and are flocking to the relief centres and eating cooked food without scruple. Work is provided for all the laboring poor . All the cases of deaths from starvation that have been reported have proved on inquiry to be deaths from disease.

2. Colonel Rowlatt complains of the weakness of his supervising staff. The wants of moro severely distressed districts prevent his getting more men, but if he can find locally any persons fit for employment as sub - overseers he may entertain them . The returns show only 6,444 persons on road work , but the Deputy Commissioner believes that there are in reality very many more . Ile must arrange to obtain completo information on this matter, which is one of primary importance ; any failure in obtaining this information will be regarded by the Lieutenant-Governor as an administrative shortcoming. It is expected that the next report will give a full and correct return . Three hundred and eighty -eight persons are employed on other works .

3. The Government grain received (11,742 maunds) has gone easily forward and been stored. The Commissioner believes that this district will not require more than 27,000 maunds.

4. It is satisfactory to learn that most of the money advanced to private parties has beenproperly utilised. 5. The arrangements for charitable relief seem now complete and capable of further expansion if need be . About 600 indigent and diseased persons are in dailydaily receipt of cooked food .

CALCUTTA , The 9th April 1874 . }

No. 3 M.A. , dated Calcutta, the 7th April 1874 .

From-LORD H. ULICK BROWNE , Commissioner of the Presidency Division, To-The Secy. to the Govt. of Bengal , Scarcity and Relief Department.

In continuation of my No. 40M.A. , dated 26th March 1874 , submitting the fortnightly narrative of the Collector of Nuddea for the fortnight ending 23rd March 1874, I have now the honor to submit the Collector's report for the fortnight ending 6th April 1874 . 2. Heading firstly , advances to import grain .- Blank .

3. Ileading secondly, public works relief. There is so much employment afforded by the tank-digging carried out by private individuals that comparatively few relief works are required on the part of Government . This is an excellent thing , as the road work willbe useful when the rains set in and put an end to tank work . The last labor return I have received shows rather less than 4,000 people known to be employed on tanks and road work, and 800 less than were shown in the return for the previous week . This is probably owing to some demand for labor in connection with sowing or preparations for sowing the uous crop .

4. Heading thirdly , provision of food for relief works . Blank . 5. Heading fourthly , charitable relief-The Collector has not yet sent me a list of the proposed members of the district relief committee, though I have reminded him on the subject more than once ..

He has, however, been in communication with some of the gentlemen selected, and I expect to receive the list at any moment . 6. leading fifthly.-Land - owners and Land-holders.continue to take out tuccavee loans for tauks .

528 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 22, 1874.

No. 368-8 . R. , dated Kishnaghur, the 6th April 1874.

From-C . C. STEVENS , ESQ . , Collector of Nuddea, To-The Commissioner of the Presidency Division.

I have the honor to submit the following report on the condition of the district during the fortnight ending this day .

2. The reports received from the several sub -divisions show that there is sufficient grain everywhere except in thana Jaguli , where the trade of rice and paddy is very limited. But as most of the zemindars have paddy- lending concerns, and there are also mahajuns who give out paddy to the ryots , there is little or no chance of there being any actual want of food. The sub -divisional officer of Kooshtea reports that " the stock of grain is sufficient to meet the local demands at the current rates . " The Assistant Collector of Meherpore says that, as a general rule, there is no great difficulty in getting rice. The Deputy Collector of Ranaghat believes that except in thana Jaguli grains are plentiful everywhere else . The Assistant Collector of Bongong says that " it may be confidently asserted that there is little or no chanee of there being any actul want of food in this sub - division . " The sub -divisional officer of Chooadanga reports that the coarse varieties of rice are to be had in plenty at all the principal hûts of the sub - division, and that a brisk importation of the better qualities is going on, and the bazars are invariably well supplied . The supply of rice in the north of the Sudder and west of the Meherpore sub -division is scanty.

There has been one slight shower of rain in the last fortnight, but it appears to have been very unequally distributed. The latest news from Kooshtea and Meherpore show a considera- ble fall of rain on Saturday last. Almost all the rubbee crops have been removed from the fields , and the yield has been more than was expected . The ploughing of lands for the great sowing ( aous) of Baisakh has been vigorously prosecuted everywhere, and the land will probably be unusually well - tilled this year. Sowings of sous crop in low lands have commenced in Meherpore.

3. There has been no great fluctuations in the prices of grain. They have continued steady, and the following are the rates of coarse rice which have prevailed in the several priu- cipal marts :-

4. In by far the greatest part of the district I do not think that anything more than " pressure," and that not very severe, is felt . In the north - west of the district, however , there is no doubt that the middle-class people are beginningto suffer want, and measures are now being taken for their assistance . The people of a class accustomed to field labor are somewhat better off in consequence of the large quantity of work being provided for them both from Government funds and from tuccavee loans .

5. The means of transport are sufficient . In Kooshtea , about 8,000 maunds of food- graius have been reported to have been imported , and about 10,000 maunds have been passed through that sub - division during the fortnight . From Chooadanga the through traffic has been reported to have been very considerable ; about 20,000 maunds are estimated to have been imported , and 590 maunds exported. In Bongong both the import and export trade has considerably decreased, as the mahajuns everywhere are said to have now opened their golahs . In Ranaghat the supplies received are estimated to be 514 maunds of rice, 365 maunds of paddy, besides other kinds of grains . The Meherpore sub - division is said to have been supplied with 7,000 maunds of rice from Eastern Bengal . The export of rice from the district generally has received natural check from high prices.

6. The portion of the district which is suffering most has been alluded to above . It is satisfactory that , from the manner in which work has been spread, the people have been enabled to attend carefully to their cultivation. I regret to say that there is a good deal of cholera in the distressed parts , and that I have had to provide three native doctors for that tract alone.

7. Storage of Government grain-Nono ; nor is any needed.

8. A relief committee has been organized, and subscriptions are being raised, chiefly with the view of affording employment to people who will spin cotton and to the weavers .

9. Twelve cases of grain - thefts have been reported by the police . No cases of death or starvation have come to light .

10. Of the tanks undertaken from Government funds, those at Chandghur , Mira, and Hatgacha, have almost been finished. More work will have to be provided in those neigh- bourhoods . The average daily number of persons on the Government works in the distressed parts is about 1,150 , and is not at present increasing.

RELIEF WORKS ORGANIZED BY THE MAHARAJAH OF BURDWAN .

No. 556T , dated Burdwan, the 19th April 1874 . Memo. by C. T. BUCKLAND, Esq. , Commissioner of Burdwan.

COPY submitted to the Government of Bengal, in the Scarcity and Relief Department, for information and publication in the Gazette, in continuation of No. 3601, dated 28th March .

Burdwan Maharajah's Relief Works Statement .

BURDWAN.BUR

Burdwan.--Within the last fortnight no particular change appears to have taken place . The number of recipients of food has remained the same, and with the exception of one or two cases, no real distress has evidenced itself. The exceptions have been , a party of four women and children, who appeared in a semi - starved condition from Beliatore near Bankoora , and two women from Soonamooky in the Bood -bood sub - division, who were in equally bad plight . These people are being fed with double rations and are looking far healthier . These cases are , as has been said, the only real cases of distress that have presented themselves . The number of up- country persons who apply for food has become very much smaller within the last week .

Relief works . The number of laborers has increased lately on the relief works , and this increase, though gradual , is continual . The largest number was 713 on the 8th instant , but an average of 670 may be taken to represent the number employed within the last fortnight . The rate of wages appears to be sufficiently high to allow some of the less industrious hands to work for some days and rest on others ; for on the 1st instant, the number was 641 , which fell on the 4th to 612 and rose again on the 5th to 695 , and on the 6th to 713 , and fell again on the 7th to 672. Each week , however , presents a higher average than the preceding one.

Food distribution . As before stated no perceptible increase appears in the number of applicants for food , 1,050 being the average number relieved . Pice, medicine , and cloth have been issued in cases of real distress which presented themselves , but these , as before said, have been few in number .

CULNA.

Culna relief works . A considerable increase in the number of applicants for labor has taken place. The number has now risen to 496 against 276 on the 25th ultimo . There appears to be a slight fluctuation in the daily numbers, but it is not so great as at Burdwan. The number of women employed has also increased and appears to be increasing daily, though this number also fluctuates to a considerable extent . On the 30th March , 77 were employed, on the next day 100, on the 2nd of April 86 , and on the succeeding day 124 .

Food distribution. The number of applicants for food remains steady, and about 1,150 daily receive charity . A considerable proportion of these are , however, distressed travellers who visit Culna for the purpose of bathing in the Ganges , and exhaust their means before arriving at their destination . In an ordinary year there would be a large number of applications for food from persons of this class .

BOOD-BOOD .

Annachattra . On the 1st of April an annachattra was opened at Bood - bood near the thana. The site has been chosen near a grove of trees and a tank ; sheds have been erected, and cooked food is distributed. The first two or three days the number attending was a little over 400 , but within the last week it has increased to over 900 daily . The food distributed is rice, dhall , vegetables , and salt , and the quantity is that recommended by the Central Relief Committee. The darogah writes to say that there is great distress , and that a far larger number of applicants for food may be anticipated within the next fortnight. Instruc- tions have been issued to give some sort of employment to the paupers, such as basket -weaving, but this has not as yet commenced .

530 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 22 , 1874 .

CHINSURAH .

Annachattra at Ransheriah. An annachattra will be established at Bansberiah near Chinsurah in the ensuing week. All preparations have been already made . The idea of opening a sadabritta in Chinsurah itself has been abandoned, as several have been recently opened by native residents at that place, and it is hoped that an annachattra situated in the centre of the most distressed suburbs will be fraught with more real benefit .

KEERGRAM . A relief work in the shape of the excavation of a tank at Keergram , about 24 miles north- east of Burdwan, has been commenced, and on the 20th March the number employed was 41 , on the 24th 58, and on the 27th 108. Since then the number has diminished to about 50 daily .

AMENDMENT OF ACT XXII OF 1855 .

No. 5319, dated Calcutta, the 17th March 1874 .

From-W. D. BRUCE, ESQ. , Vice - Chairman to the Port Trust Commissioners , To The Secretary to the Government of Bengal , General Department .

I AM directed by the Commissioners to bring to notice that a serious defect exists in Act XXII of 1855 , " an Act for regulation of Port and Port dues," and to request that advan- tage may be taken of that Act being now before the Imperial Legislative Council for amend- ment to remedy the defect .

2. In Section 4 of that Act, the limits of " any port , navigable river, or channel , made subject to the Act" is declared to " extend always up to high - water mark, " but no definition is given of "high- water mark," whether the highest line to which high -water rises during the year or the lowest , or any intermediate line .

3. Consequently, as the space covered by high - water varies very considerably between these limits in this port, great doubt and uncertainty exist as to what is the actual limit of the port , and of the jurisdiction which the Commissioners as Conservators of the Port exercise therein ; an uncertainty which may lead to considerable litigation between the Commissioners and the public, the riparian proprietors.

4. A similar difficulty having arisen in England, the law on this point is held to have been settled by the decision of Lord Cranworth in the case of the Attorney - General versus Chambers, 4 De. Gen. M. & G. , page 206, Section 23 , L. J. Ch. 662. By this decision it was held that, " in the absence of all evidence of a particular usage , the extents of the rights of the Crown to the sea- shore landwards is, prima facie, limited by the line of the medium high tide between the springs and the neaps ( Harrison's Digest , page 3287 ) . " The position laid down in this decision is supplemented by the further principle enunciated by Mr. Justice Phear in page 41 of his work on " rights of water," in which it is stated that " the boundary of the land covered by the sea or tidal rivers , is the line coinciding with the average height of all ordinary tides , equinoctial as well as others , taken throughout the year , excluding only, catastrophes or overflows."

5. The Commissioners therefore propose that the same principle should be applied to the ports, navigable rivers , and channels made subject to Act XXII of 1855 , and that, in amending the Act, opportunity should be taken to define high - water mark as the averageerage line of high -water mark throughout the year . The said line to be notified by Governinent in the Government Gazette as being a certain point above mean sea- level . Power should also be given to Government under the Actto mark off the line of high water by fixing pillars , posts , or such other marks as may be deemed best along the bank, at such distances and in such positions as may be considered most suitable for its demarcation .

6. The position of the average high - water mark in the Port of Calcutta , taking the average of all the tides throughout the year, is, it may be mentioned , 8.84 feet above mean sea- level and 15-09 feet above Kidderpore Dock-sill, which is the datum generally taken for surveys of the River Hooghly .

2. In reply I amto say that the Governor - General in Council , while fully admitting the necessity for a definition of the term , is of opinion that the proposed interpretation, which may materially affect the rights of riparian proprietors , should be fully considered before any action is taken . I am , therefore , to request that His Honor the Lieutenant- Governor wilt cause enquiries to be made as to how far any existing rights will be affected by the definition which he would propose to insert in the law , and will invite discussion of the matter by landholders and other persons owning property along the river who are interested in the question.

The mean barometer , as likewise the dry and wet bulb thermometer means , are derived from the twenty- four houily observations made during the day .

The dew -point is computed with the Greenwich constants. The figures in column 10 represent the humidity of the air , the complete saturation of which being taken at unity . The receiver of the lower rain gauge is 14 feet , and that of the anemometer 70 feet 10 inches above the level of the ground. The velocity of wind , as indicated by Robinson's anemometer , is registered from noon to noon .

NOTIFICATION .

HIGH - WATER MARK THE LIMIT OF PORT COMMISSIONERS ' JURISDICTION .

THE following correspondence is published for the purpose of inviting discussion of the question by those interested , as required by the Governinent of India:-

No. 5319 , dated Calcutta , the 17th March 1874 .

From- W . D. BRUCE, ESQ. , Vice-Chairman to the Port Trust Commissioners , To The Secretary to the Government of Bengal, General Department .

I AM directed by the Commissioners to bring to notice that a serious defect exists in Act XXII of 1855 , " an Act for regulation of Port and Port dues ," and to request that advan- tage may be taken of that Actbeing now before the Imperial Legislative Council for amend- ment to remedy the defect .

788

THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 29 , 1874 .

[PART I.

2. In Section 4 of that Act , the limits of " any port, navigable river , or channel, made subject to the Act " is declared to " extend always upup to high - water mark," mark," but no definition is given of " high - water mark ," whether the highest line to which high- water rises during the year, or the lowest , or any intermediate line .

8. Consequently, as the space covered by high - water varies very considerably between these limits in this port , great doubt and uncertainty exist as to what is the actual limit of the port, and of the jurisdiction which the Commissioners as Conservators of the Port exercise therein; an uncertainty which may lead to considerable litigation between the Commissioners and the public, the riparian proprietors .

4. A similar difficulty having arisen in England , the law on this point is held to have been settled by the decision of Lord Cranworth in the case of the Attorney -General versus Chambers , 4 De . Gen. M. & G. , page 206 , Section 23 , L. J. Ch . 662. By this decision it was held that, " in the absence of all evidence of a particular usage, the extents of the rights of the Crown to the sea - shore landwards is , prima facie, limited by the line of the medium high tide between the springs and the neaps (Harrison's Digest , page 3287 ) . " The position laid down in this decision is supplemented by the further principle enunciated by Mr. Justice Phear in page 41 of his work ou " rights of water, " in which it is stated that " the boundary of the land covered by the sea or tidal rivers is the line coinciding with the average height of all ordinary tides, equinoctial as well as others , taken throughout the year, excluding only catastrophes or overflows ."

5. The Commissioners therefore propose that the same principle should be applied to the ports, navigable rivers , and channels made subject to Act XXII of 1855 , and that , in amending the Act , opportunity should be taken to define high - water mark as the average line of high -water mark throughout the year. The said line to be notified by Government in the Government Gazette as being a certain point above mean sea -level . Power should also be given to Government under the Act to mark off the line of high - water by fixing pillars , posts, or such other marks as may be deemed best along the bank , at such distances and in such positions as may be considered most suitable for its demarcation .

6. The position of the average high- water mark in the Port of Calcutta, taking the average of all the tides throughout the year, is , it may be mentioned , 884 feet above mean sea- level and 15-09 feet above Kidderpore Dock -sill , which is the datum generally taken for surveys of the River Hooghly .

No. 1114 , dated Calcutta, the 27th March 1874 .

From- J . CRAWFURD, Esq . , Offg . Under- Secretaryto the Government of Bengal , To- The Secretary to the Government of India , Department of Revenue, Agriculture, and Commerce .

I AM directed to submit herewith a letter from the Vice- Chairman of the Port Commis- sioners, No. 5319, dated 17th March 1874 , with enclosure, bringing to notice a defect in Section 4 of Act XXII of 1855 , regarding the meaning of the words " high - water mark," and to recommend that the subject may be considered whenever the Act comes under revision ,

No. 49 , dated Calcutta , the 11th April 1874.

From-C. J. LYALL, ESQ. , Under- Secretary to the Government of India, Depart- ment of Revenue , Agriculture, and Commerce, ToThe Secretary to the Government of Bengal .

I AM directed to acknowledge the receipt of the Officiating Under -Secretary Mr. Crawfurd's letter No. 1114, dated the 27th ultimo, pointing out that the words " high - w mark" used in Section 4 of Act XXII of 1855 ( an Act for the regulation of ports and port dues) require definition, and suggesting that the subject should be considered when the Act comes under revision .

2. In reply I am to say that the Governor - General in Council , while fully admitting the necessity for a definition of the term, is of opinion that the proposed interpretation, which may materially affect the rights of riparian proprietors , should be fully considered before any action is taken . I am , therefore , to request that His Honor the Lieutenant- Governor will cause inquiries to be made as to how far any existing rights will be affected by the definition which he would propose to insert in the law , and will invite discussion of the matter by landholders and other persons owning property along the river who are interested in thequestion.

No. 1889, dated Calcutta, the 21st April 1874 .

From-L . С. Аввотт, Ево. , Additional Under - Secy . to the Government of Bengal, To The Secretary to the Board of Revenue , Opium, Excise , &c . , Departments .

From Port Trust Commissioners , No. 5310 , dated 17th March 1874 . To Government of India, Revenue , Agriculture , and CommerceDepartment , No. 1114, dated 27th March 1874. Commerce Department, No. 49, dated 11th April 1874 . From Government of India, Revenue , Agriculture, and

I AM directed to forward to you a copy of the correspondence noted on the margin , relating to a defect in Section 4 of Act XXII of 1855 , and to request that the Member- in- Charge will be so good as to submit , after making the necessary inquiries , a full report on the subject.

During the fair season, from October to 15th May , vessels of the largest class, with a draught not exceeding 24 feet, can now enter and leave the harbour. Fixed moorings will be placed for such vessels .

Approaches.

Ras Muari ( or Cape Monze) , distant 18 miles W. N. from the western entrance to Kurrachee, is high and bold of approach. Ships during the S. W. monsoon season should make this headland , running to the eastward for Manora Point , keeping it ( Manora Point) on any bearing to the North of East .

Masters of ships should endeavour to make the port at daylight , and can with safety approach . to within from 1 to 2 miles distance from the Light-house, keeping it on any bearing, from N. E. to N. , and heave to for a pilot .

The harbour works are nearly completed , and have proved most successful , both as regards deepening the entrance channel and enlarging interior accommodation for shipping . Among the extensive works executed , a breakwater has been built, running out from Manora Point in a S. by E. direction to a distance of 1,500 feet into 6 fathoms of water ; this affords complete shelter to the channel over the Bar during the S. W. monsoon .

Also a channel has been opened through the Bar with a depth of 19 feet at low water spring tides , 300 feet in breadth (to be widened to 500 feet) ; the channel is marked with buoys , and these , on entering , should be kept on port side, about 100 feet .

Nork. Uvery facility willbe afforded (during the fair season only ) for mail steamers to enter port during the night. A " red light " will be placed at the end of the breakwater , and a light will be shown on the west side of the channel Amail steamer arriving off the port at nigut aud requiring a pilut , should fire " two guns .

RESOLUTION- By the Government of India , FINANCIAL DEPARTMENT .

Read- Thebudget estimates of revenue and expenditure and receipts and disbursements during 1874-75 .

RESOLUTION .-A statement in explanation of the accounts of the year 1872-73 , of the regular estimates of the year 1873-74 , and of the budget estimates of the present year, accompanies this resolution .

2. The Governor- General in Council regrets that the Hon'ble Sir Richard Temple has been unable to prepare the financial statement himself ; but the Government of India have had the advantage of his valuable advice and assist- ance in arriving at their conclusions upon the financial measures of the year .

3. The accounts of the year 1872-73 show a surplus of income ovor ordinary expenditure of £ 1,763,878 . The particulars in which the accounts vary from the regular estimates are described in the statement , and call for no special notice.

4. The regular estimates for the year 1873-74 , notwithstanding the loss of half a million sterling to the revenues caused by the expiry of the Income Tax Act, show a surplus of income over ordinary expenditure of £ 1,818,700 .

801 PART I.]

THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 29, 1874 .

This result is apart from the expenditure caused by the famine, which will be subsequently noticed.

5. Explanations of the different items of revenue and expenditure are given in the statement . The analysis affords every reason for satisfaction .

The excess of the net revenue from opium over the budget estimate shows that the wise policy pursued during late years of taking a very moderate estimate of the revenue derived from opium has been maintained .

The ordinary sources of income have been fully sustained, excepting the land revenue, which has been slightly affected by bad seasons . The civilcivil expenditure has been estimated with remarkable accuracy .

The only item which shows an unexpected increase is that of ' loss by exchange.' The net expenditure upon the Army is expected to be £ 14,306,000, being the lowest amount for any year since 1863-64 .

The net charge on account of the guaranteed railways shows a substantial diminution .

6. The expenditure upon reproductive, or as they are termed in the accounts ' extraordinary' public works in the year 1873-74 is estimated to amount to £ 3,541,000, and the loans to Municipalities , &c . , to £539,300 .

7. It will be convenient to recapitulate the principles by which the Government of India are guided in regard to the provision to be made for ' extraordinary' public works and loans to Municipalities , & c. , for works of improvement .

In the year 1869 it was determined to draw for the future a stricter line between public works to be paid for out of income and by borrowing , and that only such irrigation works as were expected, after careful examination, to yield a fair direct cash return to the treasury, and state railways within certain limits , should be classed as ' extraordinary, ' and, if necessary, provided for by loan .

Act. XXIV of 1871 authorised Government to make loans to Corporate Bodies and Municipalities for certain purposes on the security of local or muni- cipal funds .

In the financial years 1869-70 , 1870-71, and 1871-72 funds were borrowed by the Government for these two purposes . Upto the end of the year 1872-73 the whole net sum borrowed was £10,872,551, to which is to be added recoveries from Municipalities , &c . , amounting to £ 361,799 , so that the total receipts amounted to £ 11,234,350 .

Up to the end of the year 1872-73 there had been exponded upon ' extraordinary' public works £7,580,433 , and lent to Municipalities , & c. , £3,699,748 , making a total expenditure of £ 11,280,181 .

Thus the sums disbursed by Government upon those objects from the year 1869-70 to the end of the year 1872-73 exceeded the sums received by £45,831 .

8. Therefore, if the condition of the finances had made it necessary , the sum required for ' extraordinary' public works and loans during the year 1873-74 might with perfect propriety have been borrowed during that year, but (as explained by Sir Richard Temple in his financial statement of last year) the condition of the finances was such that it was not necessary to have recourse to borrowing .

9. The cash balances at the end of the year 1873-74 would have stood at 201 millions sterling , or about 3 millions more than the budget cstimate, had not the famine thrown a serious and unexpected charge upon the resources of the year .

10. The Government of India became aware , at the end of last October , that the failure of the rains had destroyed the food- supplies of large and populous tracts of country , and they at once determined (to quote the words of the Viceroy's despatch to the Duke of Argyll of the 7th of November) not to shrink " from using every available means , at whatever cost,

to prevent, so far as they could, anyany loss of the lives of Her Majesty's sub- jects in consequence of the calamity."

In carrying this determination into effect, they have received the cordial support of Her Majesty's late and present Governments .

[PART I. THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 29 , 1874 .

11. The best estimate that can be formed of the net expenditure for famine relief will be found in the statement , and amounts , in all , to £6,500,000. A large part of the original outlay will consist in the purchase and transport 'of grain, and it has been a matter of some difficulty to determine how this should appear in the estimates and accounts . On the whole, it has been considered most convenient to include the expenditure consequent on the famine among the ordinary charges of the year in which it may be incurred, under a distinct heading in the accounts .

As a great part of the expenditure for the purchase and transport of grain has been met during the year 1873-74, while there have been few , if any, recoveries during that year, the net expenditure on account of the famine must be distributed between the two years, for the purpose of the esti- mates and accounts , into £ 3,920,000 for 1873-74 and £ 2,580,000 for 1874-75 . It must be remembered , however, that, in fact, the principal part of the actual relief operations will be carried on in the latter year, and therefore , in order to present an accurate view of the whole transactions, the finance of the two years must be taken together .

12. After the expenditure on account of the famine has been added to the ordinary expenditure of the year, there will be a deficit of £2,101,300 .

13. The total cash outlay during the year 1873-74 on account of the famine, adding advances for loans to the net expenditure, is estimated at £4,107,000 . This sum has been provided out of the surplus of the year and the cash balances , with the assistance of £ 350,000 derived from the sale of certain securities , in which part of the surplus cash balances were temporarily invested at the beginning of the year 1872.

Notwithstanding this large and unexpected outlay on account of the famine, the cash balances are expected to amount , at the end of the year 1873-74, to £ 16,143,838 , or only £920,730 less than was anticipated by the budget estimate .

14. It was stated in the resolution of the Government of India in the Financial Department of the 28th of March 1873 " that the estimates for " the year 1873-74 had been framed with caution; that the state of the cash " balances prevented any risk of financial difficulty during the year ; and that " the general condition of the finances was satisfactory ."

The regular estimates show that these anticipations have been fully realised under circumstances of no common difficulty .

15. The budget estimates for the year 1874-75 have been framed , as usual, with great care. Apart from the famine expenditure, they exhibit a surplus of income over ordinary expenditure of £ 1,192,000 .

16. The explanations of the several items of revenue and expen- diture given in the statement are, on the whole, satisfactory . The opium estimate hashas again been cautiously made, and the total revenue has been estimated at half a million sterling less than the regular estimate of 1873-74.

Although attention has been paid to the necessity of checking all increases of expenditure at a time when a large extra charge has to be met on account of the famine, provision has been made for the constitution of the Chief Commissionership of Assam , and for strengthening the administration in the Punjab and British Burma ; an addition has also been made to the grant for irrigation works ( ordinary) , in order that profitable expenditure upon many works, which cannot properly be classed as ' extraordinary' ,' , may not be deferred .

The loan operations of the year will considerably diminish the item " loss by exchange ; " but this relief is only temporary .

17. After making all due allowances , however , there remains, apart from the famine, a considerable surplus of income over ordinary expenditure, based upon cautious estimates .

18. This bears out the opinion expressed in the Financial resolution of 18th March 1873 , that no additional taxation was required for the purpose of maintaining the finances of India in a sound and satisfactory condition.

19. After the expenditure on account of the famine has been added to the ordinary expenditure of the year , there will be deficit of £ 1,388,000 , 803 THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 29, 1874 .

PART 1.]

20. It was explained in the resolution in the Public Works Department of the 18th of July last that the Government of India were prepared to pro- ceed with ' extraordinary' public works , at the rate of 4 millions sterling a rear for the five years ending with 1877-78 , out of funds to be raised, if neces- sary, by loan; and that , according to the best estimate that could be formed, this might be done without imposing any additional annual charge upon the revenues of India on account of guaranteed railways , state railways, and extraordinary public works .

In accordance with this programme, provision has been made for the expenditure of £4,563,000 upon ' extraordinary, public works during the year 1874-75 .

21. The cash balances at the beginning of the year 1874-75 arc estimated at £ 16,143,838 . A sum of 4 millions sterling has to be provided for repro- ductive public works , and half a million is required to meet loans to Municipalities and other loans under Acts of the Legislature .

T There will , therefore , be , in the year 1874-75 , a sum of 5 millions sterling , which, according to the principle explained in the 7th paragraph of this resolution, can legitimately be raised by loan. To this must be added a sum of 14 millions, in order to meet the withdrawals during the year of part of the capital standing in the Government books to the credit of the guaranteed railway companies , and 2 millions for the purpose of meeting the deficit caused by expenditure and advances on account of the famine, and of making a slight increase in the cash balances .

Thus the total sum to be raised by loan during the year 1874-75 is , according to the information now in the possession of the Government, esti- mated at 8 millions sterling .

22. Her Majesty's Government have obtained authority from Parliament to raise a sum not exceeding £10,000,000 in England on behalf of the Gov- ernment of India. £5,000,000 of that sum have been called up, and this will provide for the requirements during the early part of the year. A sum of £860,000 will be received on loan under the arrangements entered into with the Maharajas of Gwalior and Indore for the construction of railways through their Highnesses ' territories . The remaining sum of about 24 millions sterling, or such portion of it as may, as the year proceeds , be found necessary , will be raised hereafter in England or India as may be most advisable in the then condition of the money market .

23. The drafts of the Secretary of State upon the Indian treasuries have been reduced in the, month of April to 40 lakhs of rupees at each periodical drawing . They will be still further reduced to 20 lakhs on and after the first drawing in May until further notice .

The Government regret that circumstances have prevented an earlier announcement of the measures in regard to the loans and the drafts upon the Indian treasuries .

24. The cash balance at the end of the year 1874-75 is estimated at £ 16,541,338 .

25. From a review of the estimates of the years 1873-74 and 1874-75 taken together, it will be seen that in round numbers-

the surplus of income over ordinary expenditure is expected to be 3 millions sterling;

the net expenditure on account of the Bengal famine is estimated at 6 millions ;

after adding the cost of the famine to the ordinary expenditure there will be a deficiency of 3 millions ;

there will be expended upon " extraordinary" public works and upon loans to Municipalities , & c . , 9 millions ; and

that it is intended to raise by loan the sum of 8 millions .

26. The sumto be borrowed does not equal the sum which will be spent in the two years 1873-74 a ad 1874-75 upon " extraordinary" public works and loans to Municipalities , for which purposes the Government of India were justified in borrowing moncy if necessary .

804

[PART I. THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE, APRIL 29 , 1874 .

The condition of the finances has been so strong that an expenditure of 6 millions sterling on account of the famine will be borne out of the surplus of income over ordinary expenditure, and out of the cash balances , which stood very high , mainly in consequence of the large surpluses of income over ordinary expenditure in the three preceding years .

27. His Excellency in Council regrets that the necessities of the State in obliging the Government largely and rapidly to reduce their balances in the Presidency Banks have tended to produce considerable tightness in the moncy market , which was incrcased by the great demand for silver to meet the transactions of Government and of the trade for the purchase of grain . The general condition of trade has , however, been sound, and the Government are gratified to believe that nothing more than a temporary inconvenience has been occasioned by the large and exceptional financial transactions of the State during the last six months .

28. The Government of India are anxious to avoid the imposition of fresh taxes and any disturbance of the present financial arrangements of the country, and it is with particular satisfaction that they arrived at the conclusion that, notwithstanding the large and unexpected demand upon the resources of the State, no increase of taxation is necessary .

29. The large amount of the estimated expenditure on account of the famine, and the principles which have guided the Government of India in dealing with the calamity , make it necessary to examine whether, although upon the present occasion the charge can legitimately be met without fresh taxation , it will be safe to rely uponon the present resources of India for the purpose of meeting future demands of the same kind .

30. If the occurrence of serious deficiencies in the food -supplies of the people in parts of British India depended upon causes so rare as the potato disease which produced the Irish famine of 1846-47 , it would be sufficient to say that the expense of meeting such visitations should not be borne by one generation, but, in accordance with the course adopted by the Imperial Gov- ernment in dealing with the Irish famine, the necessary funds might legiti- mately be raised by loan if the ordinary resources of the State should prove insufficient .

31. Unfortunately , however, drought, which is the cause of all serious and extensive famines in India, cannot be regarded as an extraordinary visitation . Within the last ten years there have occurred , in the year 1866, a drought very similar to that of last year, which occasioned what is termed the Orissa famine ; in the years 1868 and 1869 a failure of rain in the North- Western Provinces and Rajpootana, which occasioned great distress over a considerable tract of country , and severe famine in Ajmere and Marwar ; and, lastly, in the year 1873, a failure of the autumn rains in Behar and parts of Bengal, which has produced the present famine .

32. Such being the facts with which the Government of India have to deal, it would not be safo to depend upon loans for the purpose of meeting future charges on account of famines . Although means have been taken and will be taken to obviate or mitigate those calamities, some such charges must, for a time at least , be looked upon as contingencies to be expected to recur with more or less regularity .

33. It is necessary , therefore , that besides a fair surplus of income over ordinary expenditure , such a margin should be provided in addition in ordinary times as shall constitute a reasonable provision for meeting occasional expenditure upon famines. If the surplus be employed in the reduction of debt, in the construction of reproductive public works , or remain in the cash balances, the expense caused by future droughts may fairly be met by appropriations from cash balances, or by loan, to the full extent of the accumulations of surplus .

34. This condition of things has existed in India during the last four years , and the Government of India are resolved to use their best endeavours to maintain for the future a considerable surplus of income over ordinary expenditure, and thus to make provision beforehand for any calls which are likely to arise on account of famines .

35. But there remains the further and more important consideration whether the disastrous effect of periodical failures of rain may not be mitigated, and to a great extent obviated, by the extension of irrigation works and of railways , or other mearis of communication .

36. This subject has constantly received the attention of the Government of India. Already a vast area of country has been rendered secure from the effects of a failure of rain by the irrigation works which have been originated or renewed by the British Government. Had it not been for the large expendi- ture upon the construction of the guaranteed railways , it would have been physically impossible to have taken adequate precautions to preserve the lives of the people in Behar.

37. In the forecast of expenditure upon reproductive public works published in July last, it was announced that 2,700 miles of railway and irrigation works calculated to secure from liability to drought 50,000 square miles of country would be constructed during the five years ending with 1877-78 at a cost of 224 millions sterling . This programme is sufficient to show that before the occurrence of the drought of last year the Gov- ernment of India were fully alive to the necessity of a vigorous prosecution of such works .

38. A general review is now being made of the position of the whole of Her Majesty's Dominions in India as regards liability to famine from the want either of works of irrigation or of means of communication . It will be the duty of the Government to consider how far it may be desirable to accelerate the construction of reproductive public works, and if so, how the necessary funds shall be provided.

It is sufficient now to observe that a scheme of irrigation has been com- menced which will give security to some of the portions of North Behar which are most hable to suffer from a failure of rain, and that surveys are being made of the tract of country which extends between the Gunduck and the Kosi rivers with the view of ascertaining the best lines of railway communication.

39. There will be found in the statement some interesting statistics and observations relating to the system of provincial services, and to provincial , municipal , and local taxation, receipts , and expenditure . The Government of India propose to take a separate opportunity of reviewing the information which has been collected upon these important subjects .

40. It has for a second time occurred that no legislative measure will be introduced in connection with the budget , and, as explained last year, it would , therefore, be in contravention of the Indian Councils Act , 1861 , that a financial statement should be made in the Council of the Governor- General for the purpose of making laws and regulations .

ORDERED , that this Resolution , together with the statement and the budget estimates for the year 1874-75 , be published in the Gazette of India for general information , and that the separate orders passed by the Government of India upon the estimates of the several local Governments and heads of departments he communicated to them .

PART VI .]

67 THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 29, 1874 .

STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS .

The primary objects of this Bill are three one to empower the Local Governments in all the principal ports of British India to levy a moderate duty for the support of local hospitals to which scamen resort for medical aid. The duty will in no case exceed one anna per ton, and will be leviable in respect of all merchant-ships lying in such ports . Under Bengal Act III of 1867, the Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal has already this power as regards vessels lying in the port of Calcutta .

In ports to which the present Port Act extends, ships of over 200 tons burden cannot be moved without having a pilot , & c& c . , on board , and smaller vessels cannot be moved without the authority of the Conservator . The second object of the Bill is to extend this rule to the navigable channels leading to those ports .

Its third object is to provide for the arrest of foreign deserters in any port of British India on the application of the Consul of any foreign powerpower to which the Foreign Deserters Act, 1852, has been declared applicable . Similar provisions are in force in the ports of Bom- bay (Act XIII of 1856 , s . 117) , Calcutta (Bengal Act IV of 1866, s. 103) and Madras (Madras Act VIII of 1867 , s . 80.)

As the law relatingto ports and port -dues is now contained in no less than twenty- two Acts, it has been thought more desirable to consolidate these laws with the additions above specified than to add a twenty - third to their number.

TheBill is divided into eight chapters :

Chapter I contains the usual preliminary matter .

Chapter II empowers the Local Governments to extend the proposed Act to any port to which it will not in the first instance apply, to alter the limits of any port in which the proposed Act may be in force , and to make port -rules for the purposes mentioned in Act XXII of 1855 , section 7. The opportunity has been taken to define high - water mark ' as the medium high tide between the springs and the neaps ( Atty . Gen. v. Chambers, 4 DeG . Mac . & G. 206 , 218) .

Chapter III deals with the Conservator and other Port - officers and describes their powers and duties . A clause ( 17) taken from the Bengal Act III of 1865 empowers any Conservator , for the purpose of extinguishing fires in his port, to require the master of any ship of more than 500 tons burden to place at his disposal three -fourths of the crew then under such master's orders . In other respects this chapter makes no substantial change in the law . Chapter IV contains sundry rules for the safety of shipping and the preservation of ports .

Thore is nothing substantially new , except a clause ( copied from Bengal Act III of 1867 ) imposing a penalty on any master who wilfully omits to take order to extinguish fire on board his ship; and another clause (taken from Bengal Act III of 1865 ) empowering the Local Government to make rules for thethe prevention of fireof fire from petroleum and other inflammable oils . Chapter V relates to the subject of salvage in ports and is equivalent to sections 38 and 39 of Act XXII of 1855 .

Chapter VI relates to Port-dues . The provisions of Act VII of 1873 , under which the Local Government extending the proposed Act to any port may declare the maximum amount of dues to be levied therein, (but within the limits of a statutory maximum) , and the condi- tions and modifications under which such dues shall be levied , have been made applicable to all ports of British India not now subject to Act XXII of 1855 .

Power has been given to the Local Governments to direct that for the purposes of port -fund accounts any number of ports shall be regarded as constituting a single port . Similar provisions are contained in Madras Act VII of 1867 and Bombay Act XI of 1866 .

The rules relating to port-dues chargeable on vessels re-entering ports from stress of weather, entering in ballast, or not discharging or taking in cargo or passengers , which are now repeated in many local Acts, have been made of general application . A general power also has been given to compound for port -dues .

Ageneral clause has been introduced fixing the maximum fees for certain services , such as hauling, remooring , removing from one part of the port to another, hooking and measuring . Similar clauses are to be found in Act XXX of 1857 , Bengal Act I of 1863 , and Madras Act VII of 1867 .

A provision taken from Bengal Act III of 1867 has been introduced to authorise the refusal of port-clearances until the payment of the expenses attendant on the illness or death of masters, seamen and apprentices , which, under the Merchant Shipping Act (17 & 18 Vic . , c. 104) s . 228, are to be defrayed bybe defrayed by the ship - owner.

Chapter VII contains the general provisions as to penalties found in Act XXII of 1855 , sections 55 to 59, 63 and 64. And Chapter VIII provides for the arrest of foreign deserterų and contains a few other miscellaneous provisions .

The Bill is followed by two Schedules : The first shows in a tabular form-(a ) all the ports in which Act XXII of 1855 is now in force , and to which the present measure will apply in the first instance ; (6) the ships on which dues willbe levied; (c) the maximum rate per ton; and ( d ) how often the rate will be leviable. The second schedule specifies the enactments which the Bill if it become law will remove from the Statute-book .

TRAINING NATIVE MIDWIVES .

No. 158, dated Burdwan, the 8th April 1874 .

From-C. T. BUCKLAND, ESQ. , Commissioner of the Burdwan Division . To The Secretary to the Government of Bengal, Judicial Department .

WITH reference to Government Circular No. 150, of the 12th December last , and its enclosures , I have the honor to submit the following report on the subject of training native women in practical midwifery .

2. The only district where the scheme appears to have worked with some success is Hooghly , where the people are said to have appreciated the merits of the trained " dhyes, " as will be seen from the annexed copy of a letter, No. 133, of the 25th March , from the Magistrate of that district.

No. 188, dated Hooghly, the 25th March 1874 .

From-F. H. PELLEW , EsQ. , Officiațing Magistrate of Hooghly , To The Commissioner of the Burdwan Division .

In reply to your circular No. 32T, of the 10th January 1874 , calling for report upon the training of native women in practical midwifery, I have the honor to submit the following report of the Civil Surgeon of Hooghly .

2. The Civil Surgeon states that " the midwifery class attached to the Imambarah

hospital consists of one head dhye and four apprentices ,viz.-

Champa.

554 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CALCUTTA GAZETTE , APRIL 29, 1874 .

"These are placed under the charge and tuition of the Sub -Assistant Surgeon attached to the hospital,they receive lessons practically and theoretically. It is difficult to get educated girls of respectable creed. I was obliged to engage youngobliged to engage young women from the family of profes- sional dhyes (native midwives ) , who are generally of low origin , but one of our apprentices, Saroda, is of the barber caste . The above, with the exception of the head dhye , have been taught to read and write Bengali, and have advanced considerably , and the whole receive instructions regularly from Bengali midwifery translations, and lectures from the best midwifery works , twice a week by the Sub -Assistant Surgeon, Baboo Ashootosh Goopta, under my superinten- dence. The head dhye has had opportunities of attending several cases of both natural and difficult labor, and practically is pretty competent , but makes little or no progress in reading and writing ; her age and memory are against it . The people have confidence in her as an old and experienced dhye , and she is frequently sent for in the houses of respectable Hindoos , Mahomedans , native converts, and Christians , both at Hooghly and Chinsurah , and sometimes is sent for at a distance of two or three days' journey to attend cases of difficult labor. Nithoo, Saroda, and MuttyMutty areare progressingprog satisfactorily . Seedee is dull and very slow, but willing to learn. Saroda and Nithoo are very intelligent young women; they can pass the female catheter, administer enemas , and can now treat the ordinary cases of female diseases , and both have confidence in turning and managing cases of arm and breach presentations . " I have much felt the want of a lying- in-ward, and it is not an easy matter to induce females to come to the hospital , unless as a last resource .

" I have also felt much the want of artificial pelvis and fœtus-none aro to be had in the medical store department. The monthly stipend allowed to these dhyes is Rs . 29 , paid from the Imambarah fund . I consider the midwifery school as an interesting feature of this Insti- tution. The girls are not only taught midwifery, but to read and write Bengali , and the rudiments ofdiseases of women and children, and, through them, I feel certain I shall be able to get others from a better class . The people appreciate the attendance and attention of these dhyes at their houses , even in ordinary cases of disease .

" In conclusion, I beg to submit the remarks of Dr. Buckle , the Deputy Surgeon -General : 'The hospital is in good order ; all the details and management satisfactory . The class of native dhyes is very interesting, and promises well ; the Sub - Assistant Surgeon is working well under Dr. Thompson's directions.""

3. The system of training dhyes was also introduced in the Ooterparah charitable hospital, under the superintendence of the Sub - Assistant Surgeon attached to it. He reports that " the monthly stipend of Rs. 4 , which was allowed to the first pupil, has been stopped, although the dhye still attends the dispensary, and receives instruction in midwifery . Her training, however , enables her to practise successfully in most cases , and she is at present carrying on a lucrative profession, much to the prejudice of the old dhyes . The zemindars of this town, as well as those who can afford to pay her fees , patronise her, and I am glad therefore to state that the difficulty , elsewhere experienced, in securing the co - operation of the gentry in this matter does not exist here . I have , however, not been able to induce another dhye to enrol herself as a pupil for receiving regular training in obstetrics, but I have been searching for one , and I hope , with the assistance of the zemindars of this place, soon to be able to get such a pupil . The second difficulty mentioned by His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor , viz., the want of provision for a sufficient amount of clinical instruction, can be easily got over here, as not much disdifficulty is experienced in inducing women of the lowest classes , by the payment of small presents , to consent to be confined in one of the wards of the dispensary."

61 There was a fair fall of rain on the 21st April along the south and west of the district . Notwithstanding the great heat and want of rain, the boro paddy orop is generally reported to be doing well ; the grain is now forming in the ear. Tho sous or carly rice has come up well , and is about 3 inches high in some places . Cheona (millet),barley , wheat, gram, linseed, have all been reaped , and are now in the market. Teel ( oil - seed) , angarcane, and paddy crops are thriving as yet , but rain would assist them grently . The tendency of pricos of rice generally is to fall , excepting in Burrigong , in the south-east, where there has been a einsider- able rise. Cholera has been very prevalent in many parts ; ono dy's report for the entire district having shown as many as one hundred cases ( fresh attacks and deaths).

COOCHBEHARDIVE.

Cloudy and cool . Want of rain is greatly felt in parts of the south and south-west of the district , though not yet complained of in the north. The rainfall has so far been much less than usual in April . In 1872, from 1st to 25th April , 5.99 inches fell ; in 1873 during that period, 4:05 ; and in the same time of the present year only 2 26. This is already telling in some parts of the south of Boda, where the kowni ( millet) crop is said to be burnt us and in some places, such as about Chilahati, the bhadoi (early) sowing is delagell owing to the baked state of the soil . All round , however, the prospect of kowni ( millet) is so far good, though needing rain , and the bhadoi promises well . It is , however, impossible not to view the short rainfall without great anxiety . Itice is selling in the northern part of the district at an average of 13 and 14 'seers per rupee, In the Dooars it is cheapers in places 18 seers . Going south the prices rise at Northern Boda about 12 seers ; 12 is the average ruling this year To the extreme south bordering on Rungpore and Dinagepare rice sells at ∧ 8t scers. Tho Deputy Commissioner has heard that it is dearer at Rungpo border , Bhowani- gunge. In the south , where scarcity is felt, the Cooch Behar state has advanced early rice seed to ryots , and with this help ,very large tracts of land are being sown; in some places twice as much land as usual being cultivatedath it. In the north of the district, toe , the increase of the early rice cultivation this year is large.
