This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.
Usage guidelines
Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.
We also ask that you:
+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.
+ Refrain from automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.
+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.
+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liability can be quite severe.
About Google Book Search
Google's mission is to organize the world's information and to make it universally accessible and useful. Google Book Search helps readers
discover the world's books while helping authors and publishers reach new audiences. You can search through the full text of this book on the web

ANNUAL REPORT
ON THE
ADMINISTRATION OF THE MADRAS PRESIDENCY
DURING THE YEAR 1867-68.
Section L— EXECUTIVE GOVERNMENT.
On the 29th October 1867, Sir Thomas Pycroft, k.o.s.1., having completed his
term of office as a Member of Council, retired, after a service Retirement of sir
of thirty-eight years, a great portion of which was passed with k.c?8^ '
high distinction in offices of the highest responsibility. He was succeeded by
Mr. A. J. Arbuthnot, Chief Secretary to Grovemment, and Provisional Member
of Council
2. His Excellency the Governor, in the month of June, visited the South
Arcot District, and on the 17th of the following month left touts of h b the
Madras on an extended tour through Cuddapah, Kumool, and Governor.
Bellary, the scene of the Madras Irrigation Company's operations. In Septem-
ber and October His Excellency visited the Districts of Trichinopoly and
Madura, and in the month of February last spent three weeks in the Travan-
core State.
Section II.— LEGISLATIVE.
3. The undermentioned gentlemen were appointed Additional Members
of the Council for making Laws and Regulations, and took Additianai if
their seats on the dates specified opposite their names : — *>•"•
Mr. Thomas Clarke— 6th April 1867.
Mr. W. Reierson Arbuthnot— 4th May 1867.
Mir Hoomayoon Jah Bahadur — 16th November 1867.
The Honorable Messrs. J. B. Norton (Advocate General) and A. F. Brown, and

Acts passed by the
4. The Council for making Laws and Regulations have
during the year passed the following Acts : — Comw
Act No. II of 1867, " An Act to repeal Section 37 of Regulation XIV of
1816, relating to Government Pleaders," which received the assent of the
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Section II,— LEGISLATIVE.
Governor General on the 9th May, and took effect from the Ist July 1867.
Under the provisions of the Madras Regulation, referred to in the title of this
Act, the nomination of Government Pleaders in the different Courts of the
Mofussil was vested in the ZiUah Judges, and the appointments made by
Government. The Act was passed to relieve the Judges from all connexion
with these appointments, and to enable the Government to make such arrange-
ments as they thought desirable for filling the post of Government Pleader.
Act No. Ill of 1867, " An Act to provide for the examination and settle-
ment of claims agamst His Highness Prince Azeem Jab Bahadur," received
the assent of the Governor General on the 1st Jime, and took effect on the 11th
June 1867. Fifteen lacs of Rupees having been allotted for the settlement of
claims against His Highness, this Act legalizes the proceedings of a Commis-
sioner charged with investigating all claims laid before him, and gives him the
powers of a Civil Court for examining witnesses, <kc., and also provides that
the creditors who may make their claims to the Commissioner shall abide
absolutely by the award of the Government of Fort Saint George, cm the report
of the Commissioner.
Act No. IV of 1867, " An Act to repeal Madras Act I of 1863 (to enable
Subordinate Magistrates - of the second class to take cognizance of oflfences
under Section 174 of the Indian Penal Code)," received the assent of thd
Governor General on the 10th June, and took ^ect from the 2nd July 1867.
The Act repealed enabled the Subohiinate Magistracy to punish disobedience
to their summons, an offence the cognizance of which by the Penal Code was
confined to the Higher Magistracy. The Imperial Act VIII of 1866, having
given this power to all Magistrates, the Madras Act became superfluous and
was repealed.
Act No. V of 1867, " An Act to repeal parts of certain Regulationg an4
Acts relating to the offices of Hindoo wad Mahomedan Law Officers," received the
assent of the Governor General on the 21st June, and took effect ftx)m the 12th
July 1867. This Act rescinds all such enactments affecting this Presidency as
refer to the offices of Hindoo and MiBih<Hnedan Law Officers, thes# offices having
been abolished by Abt XI of 1864.
Act No. VI of 1867, " An Act to amend Act XII of 1851 (an Act for
securing the Land Revenue of Madras)," received the assent of the Governor
General on the 27th June, and took effect from the Isl July 1867. The object
of this Act is to give the Collector of Madras the power of distraining and sell-
ing moveable property, by forcible entry, for the recovery of airears of revenue
due upon land situated within the town of Madras, as well as the power of sell-
ing the land itself in case of there being no other means of realizing the revenue.
These powers are exercised by all the Collectors in the Mofussil under Madras
Acts II of 1864 and VIII of 1865, and it was deemed expedient that the Col-
lector of Madras should be invested with the same powers.

Section 11.— LEGISLATIVE.
Act No. VII of 1867, " An Act to consolidate and amend the laws relat-
ing to the levy of Port dues and fees at Ports within the Presidency of Fort
Saint George," received the assent of the Governor General on the 12th Jvdy,
and took effect from the 2nd August 1867. In August 1866, a Bill was intro-
duced into the Local Legislature, the object of which was simply to provide for
the levy of Port dues, under Act XXII of 1855, in the port of Beypore and any
other port to which the Act might hereafter be extended ; but the Select Com-
mittee appointed to report on the Bill, recommended that, in place of th«
measure then before the Council, a single Act should be passed, applicable as
well to ports in this Presidency, to which Act XXII of 1855 has already been
extended, as to those to which it may hereafter be extended. The present Act,
accordingly, repeals and re-enacts the provisions of the several enactments
regulating Port dues in this Presidency, with such amendments as experience
has shewn to be necessary or desirable.
Act No. VIII of 1867, " An Act to incorporate the Police of the Town of
Madras with the General Police of the Madras Presidency ; to extend the juris-
diction of the Town Police Magistrates ; and to amend and consolidate the pro-
visions of Act No. XIII of 1856 (for regulating the Police of the Towns of Cal-
cutta, Madras, and Bombay), and of Act No. XLVIII of 1860 (to amend Act
XlII of 1856)," received the assent of the Governor General on the 24th July,
and took effect from the Ist September 1867. This Act amalgamates the
Madras Town Police with the General Police of the Presidency in all respects,
and gives the Town Police Magistrates the full powers of a Magistrate in cases
in which the accused consents to their finally disposing of case.
Act Na IX of 1867, "An Act to amend the law relating to the ap-
pointment of Municipal Commi^ioners for the Town of Madras and the
management of its Municipal affairs, and to make better provision for the
Police, conservancy, and improvement of the said town, and to enable the said
Commissioners to levy taxes, tolls, and rates therein," received the assent of
the Governor General on the 5th September, and took effect from the 1st
November 1867. This Act amends the former Municipal Act, and provides
for the registration of births and deaths, the taking of a census, the levy of
lighting and water rates (in expectation of the supply of Madras with water
from the Red Hills), and other minor points ; and it makes the President of
the Commission solely responsible for the executive duties, and provides for
the appointment of thirty-two unpaid Commissioners from eight divisions of
Madras, in place of the former six Commissioners, of whom three were salaried
and three unpaid.

Section III.— JUDICIAL.
6ENEBAL.
6. The Judicial work on Hill ranges has always given rise to some
AdminiBtratiaiiof trouble. In 1862, the Revenue Officer, the Deputy Tahsildar
justice on the She- ■!«,,, , ,
Tvrcfj Hills. and Sub-Magistrate of the Shevaroy Hills, was invested with
the powers of a District Moonsiff, but it was found difficult to secure a qualified
officer, and the jurisdiction has been re-transferred to the District Moonsiff
of Salem, who visits the Hills four times a year (or oftener if necessary).
The Judicial work on the Hills is very light.
7. It has been found necessaiy to decide that District Moonsiffis shall
ineUgibiUtyofDis- ^^^ hereafter serve on Mimicipal Commissions, since the insti-
^ttidpaiOMMnSh tution of suits against the Commissioners in the District
Moonsiff's Courts was becoming not uncommon, and it was
necessary to transfer the suits to other Courts, a course alike inconvenient to
both parties.
CIVIL JUSTICE.
8. The Principal Sudder Ameen who was temporarily appointed in 1866
vixagapatam to assist in clearing the heavy files of the Bellary Civil Court,
Ameen. having completed his work there, was, on the 1st July 1867,
transferred to Yizagapatam, to assist in clearing the increasing files of the Civil
Court at the latter station.
9. Certain Bankers, Merchants, and Sowcars of Bellary, having, through
Extension of Act the Bank of Madras, prayed for the extension of Act V of 1866,
V of 1886 to Bellary. i% -i i -nk.i-i t» -n t • t
for the summary procedure on Bills of Exchange, &c., to the
Civil Court, the Government directed that the provisions of Sections 2 to 7
of the Act in question be applied to the Courts of the Civil Judge and of the
Principal Sudder Anieen of the Zillah of Bellary.
10. The mjgority of the local Judicial officers continue of opinion that
the Whipping Act VI of 1864, has worked satisfactorily, and
WhippingAct. , , ., A ,. . , . ,
that the pumshment of "whipping has a certain deterrent
efiect in the prevention of crime.
11. At the close of 1866, there remained 62,844 Original Suits unde-
cided, and during the year 1867, 1,63,727 were instituted,
Oriffinal Suits.
2,064 were remanded or re-admitted, making a total of
2,28,625 (not including Suits received by transfer), being 4,115* less than
the number of Suits in 1866.

cent., were convicted. Rupees 4,46,337 of property was lost, of which Rupees
55,366 (12 '4 per cent) was recovered. House-breaking cases in villages are
very difficult to detect. In towns, 29*3 per cent of cases were detected, {%, e.,
prosecuted to conviction.) 68 per cent, of persons arrested were convicted, and
16 per cent, of property lost was recovered. In Madras Town, 31 per cent,
of property was recovered. In 75*3 per cent, of all house-breaking cases the
amount lost was less than 50 Rupees, and in 1,392 cases the amount was
under 1 Rupee.
38. There was a decrease of 9*9 per cent in 1867 in the total number of
offences against property without violence. 22,594 cases were Offencoa against
reported, of which 19,602 came under the head of Theft Con- Tiofence. ^*
victions were obtained in 40-5 per cent, only of theft cases, which is a very
poor average for this crime. Only 586 cases of criminal breach of trust were
reported, of which 390 were brought to trial, resulting in the conviction of
240 persons. There were 436 cases of cheating — 264 cases were tried, and
150 persons were punished. The very small number of cases reported under
these two very common heads of ofience leads to the conclusion that such
offences are not accurately reported. These cases are not cognizable by the
Police, and the statistics given are obtained from the Magisterial returns. 31*6
per cent, of property lost has been recovered in all offences against property
without violence.
39. There was a slight decrease under the head Malicious offences against

trial, and in 62*9 per cent, of these cases conviction was obtained. Out of
Rupees 19,613 lost, only Rupees 652 were recovered. This is accounted for by
the large amoimt lost under the heads of Mischief by Fire (Rupees 12,367),
and Mischief to Animals (Rupees 2,958). 85*4 per cent, of all malicious offences
against property were cases of petty mischief, and in 4,140 cases of this nature
the average loss or damage did not amount to 1 Rupee per case.

posed to be concerned. 362 persons were produced, of whom 116 only were
committed to the Higher Courts, where 67 were convicted. Six cases were
tried by the High Court, in which six persons were concerned. The whole
were convicted and sentenced. The statistics of foi^ery thus presented cannot
be supposed to afford any real indication of the actual state of this crime in
the coimtry. The offence is not primarily cognizable by the Police, and it is
possible that a certain number of offences reported escape registry in the Magis-
terial returns. All cases finally dii^posed of are, of course, entered ; but some
in which the inquiry, owing to circumstances (absconding of offender, &c.,)
remains incomplete, may perhaps be omitted. Only 11 cases of counterfeiting,
or altering coin, were brought forward, and in wily one of these was conviction
obtained. 129 cases of uttering or possessing counterfeit coin were reported.
156 persons were concerned, of whom 136 were produced, and 68 convicted in
60 cases. 50 per cent, of persons were convicted to every 100 oflfences against
the currency. Only five cases of fraud relating to stamps, and three cases of
offences relating to trade and property marits, were reported throughout the
Presidency.
41. The number of contempts and offences against public justice has

Orders, of which there were 2,204 cases against 1,660 in the previous year.
In 2,156 cases 4,869 persons were produced, of whom 4,055 were punished.
270 cases of perjury were brought forward, of which 189 were committed to
the Higher Courts, where 131 persons were convicted out of 226 tried. Only
107 cases of false charge were brought forward (the offence is constant), and
56 persons were punished. There were 56 cases of negligent escape, in which
45 persons were found guilty against 86 cases and 83 persons in 1866, shewing
increased vigilance of custody. 139 cases of insult,, or causing interruption
to a pubUc servant sitting in a judicial proceeding, occurred imder Section 228
of the Penal Code. 162 persons were pxmished, of whom 11 were imprisoned
for periods of one month or under, and 151 were fined in sums averaging
about 8 Rupees.* 82 per cent, of these cases occurred in Sub-Magistratea*

cases were proved, and 55*2 per cent, of persons were punished.
There were 257 cases of rioting, in which 2,522 persons were said to be concerned,
1,233 of whom were pimished in 239 cases brought before the Courts. Out of
8,333 complaints of criminal trespass, involving charges against 24,334 persons,

Four cases of bigamy brought forward were not proved. 1 33 cases of adultery,

for trial, of whom 14 only were convicted and punished. This Section is but
rarely brought into action, and then chiefly by the lower classes of natives as
a channel for vindictiveness.
43. There were 57,075 offences against Special Laws, shewing a consider-
able decrease as compared with the three previous years
which averaged 62,186. 83-3 per cent, of cases, and 82-4 per * ®^*®*^ ^'"•

lost was recovered.
18 c^ses of trespass, &c., by European British subjects were chained, in
which 12 persons were punished. There were 233 offences against the Rail-
way Act, in which 285 persons were punished. 148 persons were convicted in
47 offences against the Merchant Seamen's Act In 1866 there was the same
number of offences, but only 98 persons were punished. The number of
contempts of Courts, &c., under the Criminal Procedure Code, has fallen from
285 in 1866 to 58 in 1867. Only nine persons were boimd over to keep the
peace imder the Criminal Procedure Code, and 96 persons (out of 136 produced)
were required to furnish security for good behaviour as rogues or vagabonds
under Chapter XIX., Criminal Procedure Code. Of these, 42 were committed
to prison for various periods in default of security. In 1866, 215 persons were
bound over to give security, of whom 183 were imprisoned in default The
Courts become more and more chary of exercising the wide powers given under
this chapter.
44. 8,841 offences were reported under the Madras Town Police Act
against 12,065 in 1866. The decrease has been caused partlv

by lowered prices, partly by the substitution of Act VIII of ^^^^ ^^
1867 (which came mto operation on the 1st September) for Act XIII of 1856.
All offences against property, whether petty or otherwise, are now tried under
the Penal Code. There has also been a considerable decrease under the heads
of Assault and Miscellaneous offences, such as nuisances, breaches^ of Police and
Street Regulations, &c. The Town Police Magistrates disposed of 5,923 cases
in 4,388 of which (74 per cent) convictions were obtained. 9,183 persons were
produced, of whom 6,604, or 71*9 per cent, were convicted. During the last
two years there has been a marked decrease in the munber of persons produced
before Magistrates for petty breaches of Street Regulations, &c.
45. There has been a decrease of offences against the Revenue Laws.
2,001 were reported, against 2,319 in 1866. The decrease is offences agaixiit

to 1,427 cases in 1867. Convictions were obtained in 82 per cent, of cases

by the comparative cheapness of food, but there is also a decrease of nearly 23
per cent, imder the head of Petty Assault, which isnot so easily accoimted for.
Excluding the famine year 1866, a progressive increase is visible over former
years in the number of cases disposed of by Heads of Villages. 74 per cent,
of all cases resulted in conviction, against 70*6 per cent, in 1866.

summarily tried under the Penal Code were disposed of by Magistrates with full
powers, 19*2 per cent, by Subordinate Magistrates of the first class, and the
remainder, or 61*1 per cent., by Subordinate Magistrates of the second class.
56 per cent, of persons tried were convicted. The average varies little with
Magistrates of different classes, but Magistrates with full powers convicted the
smallest proportion. This differs from the results of former years, in which
Subordinate Magistrates of the second class convicted the smallest proportion of
persons brought to trial 219 cases of robbery were disposed of by Magistrates
with full powers, against 183 in 1866.

persons were tried, of whom 38,518, or 80*3 per cent., were convicted. The
decrease in the number of cases disposed of is entirely under the head of Magis-
trates with full powers. The number of cases disposed of by Subordinate
Magistrates of the first and second class has increased. The difference under
the former h^ad has arisen from the smaller number of cases disposed of by the

3,801 (58-4 per cent.) were committed for trial There has been a decrease of
26-2 per cent, in the total number of committable cases inquired into, as com-
pared with 1866. This is attributable to the decrease of grave crime. There
has been increased action on the part of the higher classes of Magistrates.
Magistrates with full powers held inquiry into 14*2 per cent of the cases, against
12 per cent, in 1866. First class Subordinate Magistrates inquired into 16*2
per cent, of the total cases, against 13*4 per cent in 1866. The remaining

a decrease of 11 per cent. An increase, however, is exhibited ^ . ^
over the year 1865. The intervention of a year of great
scarcity, and consequent crime, has disturbed progressive calculations.
53. 96 persons were sentenced to death — 94 for murder,
one for abetment of murder, and one for dacoity with murder.
54. There has been a very striking decrease in the niunber of persons
sentenced to transportation. Only 186 have been so sentenced,
against 537 m 1866 (a decrease of 65-4 per cent.), and against Transporution.
an average of 525 in the foiu- last years. The niunber of persons transported
for murder has increased from 77 in 1866 to 84 in 1867. The decrease is chiefly
under the heads of Dacoity and House-breaking. Only 48 persons have been

transported for dacoity, against 299 in 1866, and seven persons have been
transported for house-breaking, against 42 in the previous year. The marked
difference affords a very satisfactory illustration of a decrease in gravity of the
drcumstances of offence, far more than corresponding with the decrease in actual
number of crimes committed. Six persons have been transported for theft, one
for cheating, two for forgery, and one for giving false evidence.
65. 49,403 persons were sentenced to imprisonment, shewing a decrease
of 24-6 per cent, from the famine year 1866, but an increase
^ "** over the years antecedent. The decrease is distributed
throughout the different terms of imprisonment.
56. Only 3,307 persons have been whipped, 'against 6,078 in 1866 — ^a
decrease of nearly one-half. There is also some decrease from
Whipping. ^^ number (3, 986) whipped in 1 865, the year after the present
Act came into operation. The per-centage of persons whipped shews that this
punishment has been somewhat more sparingly awarded during the past year.
27 dacoits and robbers were whipped. The rest were principally house-breakers
and thieves. 16 persons were flogged in the town of Madras for offences against
Port Regulation and Boat Rules, and 463 persons for offences against the
Madras Town Police Act. 1,027 persons were flogged imder this last head in
1866, but there were grain riots in that year.
57. 66,557 persons were fined, against 62,123 in 1866. The total amoimt
levied was Rupees 3,08,464, agamst 2,96,204 in 1866. In

lary. North Arcot, South Arcot, and Madura. Tanjore suffers far more from
burglary than any other district. Cases of ordinary mischief predominate in
Salem. Bellary has most cases of arson. Cuddapah, North Arcot, Tanjore,
and Salem shew most forgeries. North Arcot and Timievelly head the list in
cases of perjury, while rioting is most prevalent in Tanjore, Madura, Tinne-
velly, and Salem.
59. The Return of Castes of Convicted Offenders against the Indian Penal
Code rfiews that out of 180 murderers 44 were persons of caetes of offen-
the Mudaliy Naidu, and Chetty castes ; 46 were Pariahs and ®"'
other low castes. 10 Christians, 2 Mussulmans, and 4 Moplays and Lubbays
committed murder. Out of 1 1 7 persons convicted of attempt at suicide, 47 were
of the Naidu and Mudali casteS, and 23 were low caste persons. In petty cases,
of causing hurt, the Naidus and Chetties largely preponderate, as also in petty
assault. Robberies and dacoities are chiefly committed by Pariahs, Koravers,
and wandering tribes and low castes. Only 24 Mussulmans have been convicted
in these crimes out of a total of 880 persons. Naidus and Mudalis contribute 99.

total of 12,930 persons convicted. Out of 67 forgers, 1 1 were Brahmins, and 31
Naidus and MudaHs. Five East Indians committed forgery. The &brieatorB of
false evidence are chiefly Naidus, Mudalis, and low castes. Out of a total of

On the 1st September 1867, the Madras Town Police were incorporated
with the General Police of the Madras Presidency under the operation of Act
VIII of 1867. By this Act the Police of the Town of Madras were brought
under the provisions of Act XXIV of 1859, and became subject to the control
of the Inspector General. The change has worked satisfactorily, in securing
co-operation with Mofiissil Districts and greater exactitude of system.
The Kumool Mounted Police, consisting of two Inspectors and fifty-six men,
(the remaining portion of the old Eissalah of Irregular Horse,) were disbanded
diiring the year. In their place, one Inspector and forty-flve men have been
added to the Foot PoHce Force in that District.
61. The full sanctioned- establishment is 25,790 of all ranks. The force
Sanctioned Eftab- ^^ therefore, 3-4 per cent, below strength. At the close of
Ushment. ^^ official year 1866-67, the force was only 1-6 per cent,
below strength. The general rise of wages, the extension of the Kailway and
Irrigation Works, and other causes, operated to increase the difficulty of obtain-
ing eligible recruits for the Police.

The actual cost of the Police Proper, exclusive of State services, was
Rupees 34,74,452, bemg Rupees 158-11-9 per Policeman, and 2^ Annas per
head of the population. Of the above sum, Rupees 2,85,599 were contributed
by Municipalities.
65. The Madras City Marine Police is a self-supporting force. Its cost
HadTM Marine ^^^ *^« official year 1867-68 was Rupees 28,915. The amount
^^^' collected in fees from boat-owners, under Act XXVIII of 1 868,
was Rupees 32,258, leaving a balance of Rupees 3,343 to be credited to
Government. A Marine Policeman accompanies every cargo boat, the boat-
owner paying a fee of 3 Annas for each trip. Under this system the loss of
property is very rare. The coUections, in 1866-67, amounted to Rupees 28,009
only. The increase of Rupees 152 per cent indicates the mcreased activity
of trade during the past year.
66. Municipal Police have been established in forty-one towns (Madras city
MimicipaiPoUce. '^^^ "^^1"^®^)' The working is, on the whole, satisfactory. The
State finances have been relieved to the extent of Rupees
2,85,599, under the head of Police Charge.

82,819-10-5, was amalgamated, on the 1st September 1867.

increase during the year under review. There were 3,863
casualties, or 15*6 per cent, of the whole force, against 3,342 (14 per cent) in
1866. The increase lies under the heads Dismissed, Discharged, and Resigned,
deaths having been fewer. This is partly accounted for by the number of men
of the old Talook establishment, who are now becoming fairly worn out and
superannuated, and who are discharged with the gratuity to which seven years*
service in the new force entitles them. Another cause of increase has been
the necessity of reforming the force in the Kumool District, which from ineffi-
cient supervision had fallen into a state of some disorder.
The casualties of the whole force, during the year, have not been entirely
replaced. The strength of the force (exclusive of Madras Town) on 31st
March 1867 was 23,850, and on 81st March 1868, 23,616. 1,922 men were
'dismissed or discharged, against 1,453 in 1866; and 1,632 resigned, against 1,395
in the preceding year. Desertions are, of course, rare, as two months* notice gives

freedom from service. A Police force must always be liable to considerable
fluctuation, but it may be hoped that a greater degree of stability than hereto-
fore will yet be attained. Eesignations were most numerous in Vizagapatam,
Kumool, North Arcot, TinneveUy, and Coimbatore. In Tinnevelly, the great
demand for labor in Ceylon, and the consequent high rate of wages elsewhere,
operate unfavorably upon the maintenance of the Police force at present
rates of salaries, while in Coimbatore, the unpopularity of service on the Neil-
gherry Hills greatly increases the number of resignations. Madras Town
shews the smallest per-centage {(o'&) of casualties. This old established force
is the most stable. South Malabar stands next, with 9*2 per cent.
There is a most satisfactory decrease in the death-rate, which is only 12*5
per thousand, against twenty per 1,000 in 1866. It seems remarkable that the
death-rate in Jeypore is only 10*5 per 1,000, while Ganjam, with its tradition-
ally pestilential Hill Maliah^, shews a death-rate of 9*6 per 1,000 only ; both
these districts being considerably below the general average. The highest rate
of mortality is in the Kistna District, viz., 24*6 per 1,000. It is difl&cult to
account for this, although parts of the district are very feverish. The death-
rate in Vizagapatam is 16*2, and in Godavery 15*1 per 1,000. The death-rate
for the whole Northern Kange is 16*9 per 1,000, and for the Western Range
14*1 per 1,000. These are the two most unhealthy ranges. The death-rate
in Malabar is 24*3 per 1,000, nearly equal to Kistna. The mortality rate in
Madras Town was only six per 1,000. 44*3 per cent, of the whole force were
treated in Hospital, against 42*5 per cent, in 1866. The Northern and West-
ern Eanges shew the largest per-centages, viz., 65*4 and 53*1, respectively.
The Southern Range is healthiest, shewing only 28*4 per cent, Madras Town
shews a still lower per-centage of 22*6, but this is only for nine months of the
year. Since, however, in Madras every Policeman oflF duty for a single day
from sickness is treated in Hospital, while from outlying rural parts only severe
cases are sent in for treatment, it will be evident that the Madras City Police
enjoy a far higher condition of health than their Mofussil brethren.
69. There is some difficulty in the matter of punishing Police for minor'
breaches of discipline. The power to fine is given by law, and «
-^ o J .> Pines and Puniflli-
it is extensively worked. 1 1,578 Policemen were fined during n^^nts,
the year, and a sum of Rupees 14,322 was mulcted from them. A system of
punishment, by according black marks, leading ultimately (should bad conduct
be persisted in) to reduction or dismissal, has been devised, but it requires care
and trouble to ensure successfrd working.

four men were punished for fussault and criminal force, and twenty^ight for
causing grievous and other hurt. These mainly arose from the innate craving
of an Indian Police to compel disclosares when they have the real criminals in
custody. Fiffcy-eight Pdicemen were punished for extortion and bribery ; thirty-
nine for negligently permitting escape.
71. Out of 23,616 men, 14,327, or 60 6 per cent., can read and write.
This shews a slight improvement on previous years. Out of
2,776 Head and Deputy ConstaWes, (Station House Officers,)
only 110 are now illiterate. These are bequests from the old Talook Peon
establishment. Progress is being made in teaching illiterate men]to read and
write. Twenty-nine men have been taught to read and write in Canara during
the year. The Southern and Western Ranges are the best off for educated
men. In Nellore and the Ceded Districts it is exceedingly difficult to obtain
educated recruits. Only forty per cent, can read and write in these districts,
and in Cuddapah the number falls so low as thirty-six per cent. Tanjore has'
the largest proportion of educated men, but this fSewst does not seem to exercise a
satisfactory influence on the criminal statistics of the district Probably an edu-
cated Police has there to grapple with educated crime. The number of Police
Officers who have passed the General Test Examination is ninety-seven,
against sixty-seven in the preceding year. The Madras Town Police (lately
incorporated) are not included in the statement of Education. The necessaiy
information has not yet been obtained.
72. The important point of instruction has been carefiilly attended to^
^^^^jj^^^^^ and with improved results as compared with former years.
5,193 men, or twenty-two per cent, of the force, received
instruction in the District Schools, of whom 2,304 passed the prescribed test
of their rank. Eighty Police officers passed the Special Test Examination.
The largest number of men were instructed in the Northern Range. A great
majority of Station House Officers have now passed the prescribed examination.

sively Europeans or East Indians. There are 109 Brahmins,
twelve Native Christians, and twenty-four Mahomedans in this grade. The
Brahmin element predominates in the Central Range, and Bellary has a largei^
number of this caste (sixteen out of thirty-one Inspectors) than any other
district. The Constabulary numbers 24,120 men, of whom 163 only are
Europeans and Ea^ Indians. 7,284, or thirty per cent, are Mahomedans.
The Central Range (comprising the Ceded Districts) has an undtdy large proper,
tion (forty-seven per cent) of this dass, which is being gradually neduced by

diflFerence between the number of processes and the number Snoous^Prooeaaesf "

each person. There has been a marked decrease in the total nimiber
<rf Warrants issued, but the niunber of Summonses has slightly increased as
compared with 1866. A satisfactory decrease continues to
appear in the number of Warrants issued in minor cases, the
less stringent process by Summons having doubtless been more frequently used.
One in 103 of the population has been compelled to appear before a Court in
connection with these minor cases during 1867, against one in 109 during 1866.

Considerable fluctuation appears. The scarcity of 1866 may have increased
the number in that year. Doubtless some cases occur without being brought
to light. The duty is beset with temptation, but, on the whole, the salt is
efi&ciently guarded.
79. 46,628 persons are borne on the suspected lists, against 40,601 in

detriment. There is a tendency, on the part of the Police, to keep a person
who has once conmiitted an offence on the suspected list for ever. Out of

80. Coming after a famine year the season was one of greatly reduced
prices, although (the Northern Range excepted) they stood
higher than the average of five years preceding 1866. In
various localities considerable pressure of scarcity was still felt. Diminution of
crime might, however, have been anticipated, and the result has exceeded
anticipation. But notwithstanding a large decrease of crime, the ratio of detec-
tion is slightly lower than in 1866, though higher than the average of four
years past. In a time of scarcity people are more reckless in the manner of
committing offences, and hence detection is facilitated. The per-centage of
conviction to arrests has improved, and the recovery of property is somewhat
less than in 1866, but equal to the average of four years past. On the whole,
it has not been a year of progress in detection.
81. The following abstract shews the total of all offences committed
during the year in the prevention and detection of which
the Police are concerned. 65,116 cases were reported, against

82. Considerable difl&culty is experienced in maintaining the Police force
on the Neilgherry Hills in an efficient and satisfactory condi- Neiigherry HiU
tion. The rates of hill batta, now given, do not compensate ^<^^-
for the deamess of provisions, and for the discomforts of the climate. Conse-
quently resignations are frequent. The Superintendent of Police, Coimba-
tore District, has, however, by assiduous care and attention managed to keep
up the force to a good working standard.
Police in HiU
Tracts. &c.
83. In certain tracts the difficulties of Police working are greatly aug.
mented by the isolated and unhealthy conditions of the
country. Such are the Hill Maliahs of Ganjam, the Sowrah
Hill country and the Gudiun Hills in Yizagapatam, the Jeypore District, the
Rumpah Hill country of Godavery District, the Hill talooks, Collegal and
Suttiamungalum, of Coimbatore and Wynaad in Malabar. But in all these
places the work has been carried on with determined energy, notwithstanding
the ravages of climate. In the Khond Hill Maliahs of Ganjam, the work of
civilization slowly but steadily progresses, and it is believed that Meriah human

sacrifices have entirely ceased. There has been no symptom of disaffection to
Government since the repression of the last disturbance, in the beginning of
1 866. Lieutenant Pickance, the ofl&cer immediately in charge of these Hill tracts,
has remained at his post doing valuable service. The Hill MaHahs have also
been visited and inspected by Captain Tennant, Deputy Inspector General, (in
attendance on the Agent to the Governor,) and Captain Lys, the Superintendent.
The reserve force at Baliguda has been effectively housed by the exertions of
lieutenant Pickance. The Superintendent writes, "The Khonds seem to be con-
tented, and have been quiet as regards their conduct to Government officials.
Among themselves, unfortunately, there have been tribal feuds. A serious com-
bat took place in May 1867, between some villages near Koomaricoopa — four
persons were killed. The Udayaghiri Sub-Magistrate and a party of Police were
soon on the spot, but had great difficulty in separating the combatants, thirty-
seven men were subsequently convicted by the Agent of culpable homicide.
The force in the Grodavery District has also suffered cruelly from malig-
nant fever during the year. Captain Davies, the Superintendent of South Mala-
bar, writes, regarding the Wynaad country, " The Police administration of
Wynaad, (the greater part of the talook is under this district,) has been as usual
a difficult and up-hill work. In the Goodaloor Division, where the Inspector
and men are partially hutted, and a Civil Dispensary (benefits of which insti-
tution it is impossible to over-estimate) established, the working of the Police
has been satisfactory; their shew of work in detection is very fair, and men are
settling down to remain there. Much, however, is still required to make the
men comfortable." The vital importance of close attention to the comfort and
health of the men is here strongly illustrated.
84. The evil of European vagrancy seems to be on the increase, and
European Vft- luany officers loudly call for the assistance of legislative
*^"^°^' action in this matter.

which fell to 9,662 by the 31st March 1868. During the year the Peni-
tentiary at Madras was placed under the general supervision of the Inspector
General of Jails, and the population of that prison brings the daily average
number of prisoners up to 10,159. The location of gongs on the sites
of the Central Jails in course of construction at Vellore, Trichinopoly, and
Cannanore, the completion of the Central Jail at Coimbatore, the progress of
the buildings at the Rajahmundry Central Jail, and the augmentation of the
strength of the gang at the Lawrence Asylum Works Jail, afforded the means
of relieving the most crowded Jails to the extent of upwards of 1,800 men
dui'ing the year.

There were only fifteen admissions from ch6lera, and twenty-eight from
small-pox during the year, and only six of the former and nine of the latter
class of cases proved fatal The comparatively good health of the Jail popu.
lation may be ascribed, in a considerable degree, to the absence of epidemic
disease, but it is also due in a great measure to other causes. The ventilation
of most Jails has been much improved, and there has been little crowding
compared to what there was in former years. The new and liberal scale of
diet has had time to tell. The clothing in several prisons is of a better quality
. than it used to be, and great care has been devoted by Superintendents to all
matters connected with sanitation. The personal cleanliness of the prisoners
is better attended to. The buildings, yards, and precincts of the Jails are kept
scrupulously clean, and much attention is paid to conservancy arrangements.
Although neither cholera, small-pox, fever, nor Jail diarrhoea appeared in an
epidemic form in any prison during the past year, this immunity did not
extend to many towns and districts in which Jails are situated. For example,
fever was very prevalent in the town and district of Rajahmundry. At Kur-
nool, cholera was epidemic in the town, and the Native Regiment stationed
there suffered markedly from fever. At Mangalore and in South Canara the
mortality is reported to have been great. In the town of Nellore, cholera,
small-pox, and fever were epidemic. At Calicut and in the district of Malabar
Digitized by VjOOQIC
28 Section III.— JUDICIAL.
generally, small-pox wa« very prevalent, 12,000 cases having been officially
reported. Epidemic cholera also shewed itself at Salem, It is not, therefore,
too much to say that the exemption of the Jails from some of the epidemic
diseases above specified, has been due in no small degree to improved manage-
ment and cleanliness. In twenty-four of the thirty-six Jails the death-rate has
diminished, and in most instances to a considerable ext^it. In three Jails it
^as remained the same, and in nine it has increased.
The nine Jails in which the rate of mortality has increased are those at
Guindy, Tranquebar, Guntoor, Trichinopoly, Tanjore, Neddiwuttum, Paumben,
Cannanore Fort, and Mangalore.
The Jails at Guindy and at Guntoor do not call for any remark.
None of the remaining Jails were crowded during the year, with the ex-
ception of that at Tranquebar, but the daily average number waa ninety less
than it was during the preceding year. Out of the nine men who died, three
were received from Tanjore in a very bad state of health.
At Trichinopoly, almost aU the able-bodied men were transferred to the
site of the Central Jail, leaving few remaining, except the sickly and delicate.
The Jail at Nediwuttum is exposed to the full force of the south-west
monsoon. The rains are very heavy, and fogs and mist being of frequent
occurrence, the climate is trying for men from the plains. Twenty-four were
sent away for change, of whom two died. Out of the eight deaths, five were
from dysentery, two from diarrhoea, two from anasarca, and one from bronchitis.
At Mangalore, the health of the prisoners was good, except during the first
three months of the monsoon. The officer in medical charge attributes the
mortality in some degree to exposure to the weather while the convicts were
employed extramurally, but he also states that the population of Mangalore
and of the district generally were imhealthy, and the mortality was imusually
large during those months.
At Tanjore, the health of the Jail, if judged by the number of admissions
into hospital, viz., sixty-one, would seem to have been good, but the death-rate
is very high. Out of twenty deaths, ten were fix)m diarrhoea, four from
dysentery, two from cholera, two from small-pox, one from disease of the lungs^
and one from atrophy. This Jail is a hired building, within the town of Tanjore,
surroimded by other buildings, and badly situated. A new Jail has been
sanctioned.
The gang stationed on the works of the Cannanore Central Jail shewed
a very high rate, upwards often and a half per cent., the number (daily average)
being 256, and the deaths twenty-seven. The temporary Jail was first occupied in
April 1867, and the prisoners were tolerably healthy until August, when diarrhoea,
rheumatism, and scurvy, became prevalent. Of the ^wenty-seven deaths, nine
are recorded as from rheumatism, three from dysentery, four from diarrhoea,
two from anasarca, two from dropsy, two from disease of the lungs, one from
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Section III,— JUDICIAL 29
dyspepsia, one firom atrophy, one from wound, and two from ulcers. Early in
October further medical advice was called for, and the medical ofi&cer separated
a number (fifty-two) of the men, as suflfering from scurvy. He is of opinion that
the deaths attributed to rheumatism were really from scurvy. The Jedl haa not
been crowded, but it is much exposed to the weather, the monsoon was very
violent, and the convicts were prevented from going out to labor. The diet
scale was pronounced ample. There seems strong reason for supposing that
there was an epidemic of scurvy, which was not recognized by the medical
officer in charge, but this does not appear to have been introduced from the
Jails from which the men were drafted.
87. There were 8,513 convicts released during the year, exclusive of
those from the Madras Penitentiary. Of that number, 7,831 Health on admis-
convicts are reported to have been released in the same state ^^ *^^ release,
of health as when admitted, viz., 7,728 in good health, seventy-five in indifferent
health, and twenty-eight in bad health. 372 were released in an improved, and
310 in an inferior state of health.
88. For some time, during the construction of the Central Jail at Coim-
batore, the Superintendent had in force a system under which
« , , , , . , , Convict Warden.
convicts of good character were employed to superintend the
labor of their fellow convicts, to have charge of the wards and cells, and look
after their cleanliness, the state of the bedding, &c., to superintend the cooking,
and generally perform the duties of warders. These men wore a brass badge,
were released from their fetters, and were exempted from Jail punishments,
being, however, liable to immediate reduction from their offices of trust, when
they again become liable to Jail punishments.
The system was found to work well, and arrangements are now being
made for the introduction of a similar plan into all Central Jails ; where the
number of paid warders will be reduced in proportion to the employment of
convicts. At the same time measures are in process of completion for intro-
ducing a system of gradual remission of sentences as a reward for good conduct
and industry. The system will be based upon an allotment of marks for
conduct and work performed, and will be combined with a classification of the
prisoners based on conduct in JaiL

The great majority of the convicts in the Penitentiary have been sentenced
by the Police Magistrates for short periods, and many of them have been com-
mitted very frequently. In the Mofussil Jails the per-centage of re-committala
to admissions was of Adults 7-16, of Juveniles 11*82. In the Madras Peniten-

Cochin, Mangalore, Paulghaut, and Coimbatore, and at some Jails the available
surplus labor was hired by private individuals. The prisoners not employed
beyond Jail precincts were engaged in menial offices, in gardening, and in
manufactiu*es. The amount realized in cash was Rupees 25,553-12-4, and the
value of labor not paid for is estimated at Rupees 1,61,075-4-11.

mundry make all their own clothing, blankets included, and a large quantity
has been supplied to other Jails. It is expected that, before long, all Jails
within the respective Circles of these Central Prisons will be so supplied. At
Bellary the clothing and blankets are made in the Jail, and at Salem, Chingle-
put, Cuddapah, and Cuddalore the clothing is made.
96. The cost of the Jails, exclusive of guards and buildings, was Rupees
7,49,977-7-1, of which Rupees 4,83,969-4-8 were for food,
inclusive of extra diet to sick. The average cost per prisoner
was Rupees 76-6-7, all charges included. The average cost of food for each

The number of juvenile offenders is small. On the 31st March 1867, there were
fiffcy-two boys and five girls in the Mofussil jails, which was rather more than
the general average, owing to the famine during the preceding year. During
1867-68, there were ninety-three admissions, and on the 31st March 1868 only
forty-six boys and one girl were remaining.

juvenile offenders could be collected in a few centres, where systematic
arrangements could be made.
The number of female juvenile convicts is extremely small.
99. The condition of the Subsidiary Jails has been under careful investi-
gation during the past year. The Committee appointed in
April 1867 has furnished very complete reports on the condi-
tion of the class of Jails in ten Districts,* and has submitted to Government
proposals to meet the requirements of these provinces. The whole question of
the cost involved in providing adequate accommodation for short sentenced
prisoners has been submitted to the Government of India^ and is under con-
sideration.

The following abstract shews the financial results of registration
during the year. The collections amounted to Rupees

The total cost of the department, including the value of all articles received from
the Stationery Office and the Mint without cash payment, was Rupees
2,22,527-2-10, leaving a surplus of Rupees 58,244-15-2 on the 'year. This
amoimt, added to the surplus of last year, entirely clears oflF the deficit with
which the working of the department was attended from the 1st January 1865

during his inspection. His remarks on the result of his inspection are as
follows : —
" I found the Registry Offices of South Arcot, Tranquebar, and Triohinopoly in a satis*
factory conditioni those of Tanjore, Madara, and Salem, in tolerable order, and that of
Tinoevelly in an unsatisfactory state. The general result of my inspection of the ninety-
eight Snb-Eegistry Offices above referred to is shewn below. These tours, extend*
ing as they did orer the whole of the Tamnl Districts, except Coimbatore and portions of
Madura and Triohinopoly, gare me opportunities of visiting a number of very important
Offices, including, among others, those of nearly all the Special Sub- Registrars, who have
been appointed during the last two years. The Offices of the Special Snb-Registrars were,
with a few exceptions, in excellent order, and as a general rule the Offices of the official
Sub-Registrars were in a more efficient condition than those of the same class in the
Telagu Districts, to which my attention has been hitherto mainly directed. Notwithstand-
ing, however, that the blunders committed in these Offices were fewer in number and leeis
gross in kind than those previously noticed, I found abuses prevalent in some of them,
which did not exiit in the Telugu Offices. No Registration Office can be considered in an
efficient condition, unless, as a general rule, an instrument, admitted to registration, is
returned on the same or the following day. In small Offices, this can of course always be
done without any difficalty, but I found that in some of the large Offices, the copying ol
instruments had always been and still was considerably in arrears, involving in some
instances a delay of fifteen or twenty days in the returning of instruments. In consequence
of this pernicious practice the parties had got into the habit of going away |» their
Villages and leaving their instrnments unclaimed for weeks and even months together,
and in some Offices there was a large collection of instruments which had accumulated
in this manner. I endeavoured to check the first of these evils by instituting a monthly
Return of instruments uncopied, and by directing that the payment of commission should
be suspended until the work of the month had been completed. It has been shewn
elsewhere that the arrears under this head are now almost nominal* A reduction in the
number of instruments already lying unclaimed cannot be so readily efiected, as under
tbe present rules the parties, who leave them unclaimed, are not subject to any penalty
for doing so, as they are in the other Presidencies, and an Officer who has once allowed
instruments to accumulate on his hands cannot readily get rid of them again, but a
considerable improvement has been efiected in some Offices since the inspection. Another
abuse, which was much more common in the Tamul than in the Telugu Districts, was
the laxity which had been allowed to creep into the preparation and transmission of the
monthly copies of the Indexes. In many Offices, particularly in the Tinnevelly District,
the preparation of these copies had been allowed to fall many months in arrears. In
these cases also the payment of the commission bills has been suspended until all arrears
are brought up."

Season.
37
Section IV.— REVENUE.
116. The year commenced hopefully, but ended gloomily. The copious
north-east monsoon of 1866 was followed by a fair south-west
monsoon in 1867 ; but the subsequent north-east monsoon
was scanty everywhere, and failed almost entirely in many districts. The
season was accordingly unfavorable to agriculture in Coimbatore and South
Arcot, more unfavorable still in Tanjore, Madura, Salem, Nellore, and Cudda-
pah, and absolutely disastrous in Madras and North Arcot. Before the close
of the year, serious cause was seen for apprehending famine in South Arcot.
Salem, Madras, North Arcot, Nellore, Cuddapah, and Bellary, and vigorous
measures were taken to prepare for the emergency and relieve existing distress.
In the Northern districts* the season was good, and on the Western Coasts
and in the Kistna and Trichinopoly districts, it seems to have been fair on
the whole.
117. The public health was about the average. Cholera decreased all over
the Presidency, but small-pox was virulent, and fever was
more widely spread and more deadly than usual. Cattle ^^i^c Health,
disease was prevalent, and, combined with want of pasturage and water, caused
heavy losses. Tinnevelly, Vizagapatam, and the districts on the Western
Coast were decidedly healthy. .
118. At the quinquennial census taken on the 1st March 1867, the
population of the Presidency, exclusive of the town of Madras,
was found to be 26,089,052.t The population of the town of ^P^^^n.
Madras has never been accurately reckoned, but it is supposed to be about
450,000.
119. The steady increase in the prices of staple articles of consumption
was checked in the year imder report for the first time since
1860-61. In consequence of the plentiful harvests at the end ^^^
of 1866-67, they declined below the rates of 1864-65.
120. In consequence of the demand for labor excited by Railways in
progress, and by favorable agricultural prospects, as well as
of the cheapness of food, emigration diminished throughout °^
the Presidency, and ceased altogether in many districts.
121. Statements B. and C. in the Appendix shew the receipts and charges
fbr tiie last five years. Every item in the former statement,
tirith the exception, of coiirse, of Income Tax, exhibits an venue,
increase when compared with 1866-67. The proportion which the charges
bear to the receipts is one per cent, less than that of last year.

To facilitate the comparison of receipts with changes an abstract statemf nt,
Appendix D, is given, which shews the proportion borne by the one to the
other for the last five years. The amount collected by coercive processes was
Rupees 1,03,679.
122. The area under cultivation increased by acres 353,286, or two per
Area under caUi- ^^*-> ^^* *^® assessment thereon decreased by Rupees
^»t»on. 2,12,391. This was the result chiefly of the want of rain,
which in many places necessitated the relinquishment of attempts to cultivate
highly assessed irrigated lands. The principal increase of area took place in
Bellary, Trichinopoly, Madura, and the Godavery, and the principal decrease in
assessment in North Arcot and Cuddapah, where the season was unfavorable,
arid in Kumool where the new settlement rates were introduced.
123. The total amount of Land Revenue collections was £4,239,705. As
compared with those for the preceding twelve mouths they
increased by Rupees 14,67,487 in ten districts, and decreased
by Rupees 8,33,852 in nine districts. The greater part of the increase is
shewn in Bellary, where the collection of kists for 1866-67 had been deferred
on account of the famine ; in Tinnevelly, where the dues were more punctually
collected ; and in Ganjam, where the comparison is made with a period when
the state of the district required that large remissions should be given. The
greater part of the decrease is to be ascribed to the character of the season in
Madras, North Arcot, and South Arcot.
124. The Abkarry collections amounted to £506,741. Comparing them
with the collections for the preceding twelve months, there
was an increase in every district except Cuddapah, where it
was found necessary to grant large remissions to the contractors, whose receipts
were seriously affected by the depression of agriculture.
125. Rupees 215 was collected on account of arrears of

been since 1860-61. More extensive trading operations, com-
bined with the enhancement of duty on the export of grain, produced an
increase in the revenue everywhere except in the Kistna, South Canara, and
Malabar Districts, where there was a sinall decrease. In Madras, a large export,
ation of Indigo occasioned a material portion of the increase. Particulars are
given in Statement E. in the Appendix.

Section IW-^EHVENUK 39
A statement* of the declared value of imports and exports during the last
twelve years, and an analysist of the principal articles of trade during 1867-68
will also be found in the Appendix.
Comparing eleven months of 1867-68 with 1866-67, it appears that the
most important increase in imports took place in Cotton, Piece-goods, Paddy,
Metals, Railway Stores, and Spices, and the largest decrease in Twist, Rice,
Wheat, Grain of sorts, and Seeds. In exports the largest increase was in
Cocoanuts, Coffee, Cotton-Wool, Indigo, Oils, Seeds, and Spices, and the largest
decrease in Rice, Grain of sorts, and Sugars.
Statement H. shews the quantity and value of the export trade in
Coffee, Cotton, Indigo, and other important staples for three years. Taking
eleven-twelfths of the collections for 1867-68, it appears that there is an increase
in the quantity of every article except Sugars, and in the value of every article
except Sugars and Rice.
128. The area of land under cotton varied but slightly. It increased in
Kumool and BeUary, the great cotton-producing districts;
•" ^ r o Cotton cultiyation.
but it decreased in most of the other districts. The increase
altogether was only 65,533 acres.
Statement I. shews the area cultivated with cotton and exports in cotton-
wool for the last ten years.
129. The export and import of bullion continued to diminish. The
excess of the imports over exports was Rupees 11,37,895, or
less than it has been for the last twelve years. J
130. The Land Customs increased by Rupees 40,335. Land Customs.
131. There was an increase of Rupees 4,65,979 in the revenue from salt,
but compared with twelve-elevenths of 1866-67, there was a

decrease of Rupees 4,86,024.§ The sales also, though larger
than during the eleven months of 1866-67, are nearly eight per cent smaller
than twelve-elevenths of the sales for that year, but the decrease in sales for
home consumption is very trifling. The decrease of two lacs of maimds in the
sales for inland consumption is accounted for by the fact that salt began to find
its way into Central India by rail from Bombay, and that the demand in the
Nizam's territories was slack, the market being overstocked. The decrease of
three and a half lacs in sales for exportation seems to be due to ordinary and
not exceptional causes. The exports had been imusually large in 1864-65 and
the two following years.
132. The Stamp revenue increased when compared with twelve-elevenths
of that for 1866-67 by Rupees 4,54,835. This was due in
great measure to the new Stamp Act, which was introduced on
the 1st May 1867.

even more successful than that held at Calicut in February 1867.

repression of cattle disease, and is understood to be compiling
a Manual on the subject. General directions as to segregation
and common remedies have been published in every District Gazette. Directly
anout-break occurs in any district, particulars are telegraphed to Mr. Thacker,
and he prescribes the treatment to be adopted, or proceeds to the spot as
occasion requires. The agriculturalists are beginning to have great confidence
in his system.

In Kumool proper thirty-four villages remain to be settled. The settlement of
the Salem District has been completed. The only point remaining for decision
is commutfition rate, which is now under the consideration of Government.
The total expenditure for the year was Rupees 2,35,763, including Rupees
41,858 paid to the CoUectors of Tinnevelly and Nellore for the establishments
working under them.

912 villages, containing 2,089 square-miles, were mapped ; and
the maps of 632 villages, containing 2,613 square-miles, were lithographed.
The mapping of 801 villages (2,634 square^niles) was in progress at the end
of the year. The Survey in Kietna, Salem, and Nellore, was completed, and
the employes were draughted to other districts. Work on the Neilgherries
has progressed satisfactorily. In Madras, Ganjam, and Coimbatore boundary
demarcation of 563 villages (858 square-miles), and field demarcation of 331
villages (435 square-miles) were completed.
The total expenditure for Survey and Demarcation is Rupees 5,92,502, as
against Rupees 5,29,468-9-5 for last year.

The average monthly increase by propagation is less than last
year, there being no demand for plants, except for the requirements of the
Government plantations. This is owing to the gratuitous distribution of Chin-
chona seed, of which more than 100 ounces have been given away, a quantity
capable of producing 2,000,000 plants. A new and valuable variety of C.
Calisaya has been introduced, and is reported to be doing well. The total
number of plants on 31st March 1868, was 2,353,370 against 1,926,044 for last
year. Mr. Broughton has obtained highly satisfactory results from the analysis
of the different species of barks. He has also been fortunate in discovering,
in districts near the Neilgherries, certain economic products of great impor-

Rupees 5,743 were spent on the road between Luckady and Kulputty on earth-
work and bridges, and the masonry of a bridge over the Koonuth river was nearly
finished at a cost of Rupees 8,000. The construction of a bridge over the Kul-
putty river, on which Rupees 3,579 were spent, was much retarded, owing to a
misunderstanding with the contractors. The whole of the earthwork of the
road from Kulputty to Sultan's Battery, on which Rupees 18,088 were laid out,
was completed to within three miles of Kulputty ; materials were collected for
the culverts, and the construction of two temporary bridges was undertaken.
Rupees 9,706 were spent in completing the earthwork of the road from Sultan's
Battery to the Mysore frontier, and on the collection of materials for the
necessary masonry works. On the road from Manantoddy to the Coorg frontier,
where the outlay was Rupees 10,327, the earthwork, excepting for about three-
fourths of a mile, was open to full width, and materials were prepared for a
number of temporary bridges. The earthwork of the Carcoor Ghaut and road,
and much of the bridge work were completed, and the entire line was thrown
open for traffic during the year with an outlay of Rupees 35,285, of which
Rupees 2,736 were appropriated from Income Tax funds.
219. Four large and ten small bridges and drains were completed on the
road from Mangalore to Cannanore, vi4 Vitla and Hoosdroog,

miles of the road from Madura to the Travancore country, immediately north
of Satoor, was made and metalled ; nearly five miles of roadway south of Palam-
cottah were constructed, and five old Irish bridges on other parts of the line
were converted into timnels with an outlay of Rupees 21,898, of which Rupees
3,114 were from Income Tax funds. Twenty-three miles of the road from
Palamcottah to Tuticorin were completed and opened for traffic, and six addi-
tional miles were under construction. The whole of the piers and one of the
abutments of the Nulla Mullay Oday bridge were built up to the springing line,
and the foundations of the other abutment were partially laid with an expendi-
ture of Rupees 21,197.

244. The total expenditure on capital account, iip to the 31st December
1867, amounted to Rupees 1,93,21,238, and the net profits capital account
for the half-year ended 31st December 1867, were Rs. 2,80,014, ""^ ^*^**-
being at the rate of £2-18-0 per cent, per annum.
245. The progress made during 1867-68, upon the portion of this line
under construction, has not been thoroughly satisfactory ; and
it is now clear that the dates named in the Contract Agree-
ments for the completion of the several sections will be considerably exceeded.
The bridge over the Chittravutty river has been finished ; and the portion of
the line between Moodanoor, the present terminus, and Tadputry, a distance
of thirty-two miles, is in a very advanced condition.
The bridge over the Pennair river has made very slow progress, but the
Contractor has now engaged to complete the masonry by the 31st December
next ; and in that case the opening of the line to Gooty may be confidently
looked for before the end of 1869.
Between Gooty and Adoni the work is in a forward state, and after the
line has been opened to the former place, the opening to the latter will probably

take place in as short a time as will allow of the permanent way being brought
forward and laid down.
The completion of the line between Adoni and Raichoor, which will be the
terminus of the Madras Railway in this direction, will depend chiefly on the
progress made with the bridge over the Toongabudra river. This important
work is now making fair progress, but it does not seem likely that the line wiU
be opened to Raichoor before 1872.

was opened for traffic, and on the 1st of January 1868, a
jimction was effected at Erode with the South-West Line of the Madras Railway,
making, in all, a distance of forty-one miles opened during the official year
1867-68. The number of miles now open for traffic is 168.

The train service has been carried out by one pafesenger train daily

of irrigation will be made below the 24th mile, to the country above which
it has hitherto been confined. There will be only a commencement however.
Even under the most favorable circumstances, the ryots will not be assured
that water will be available until qomparatively late in the season, and it wiU
then be too late for them to alter the nature of the yearns cultivation. If,
however, a few acres here and there be irrigated in each village near the canal,
it may be anticipated that the following year will, should the works be found
efficient, see a marked increase in the area of land brought under irrigation.
Expenditure of the year. Rupees 2,31,035-6-0.
267. The fourth section is almost complete, and also the fifth, the latter
having been previously in an advanced condition. These are ^^^ ^^^^ ^^^ g^^
both likely to be ready by the time water can be brought *^°^*
down. The expenditure has been respectively Rupees 1,84,441-13-6 and
Rupees 96,425-4-4
268. In the sixth section, which will be a still-water navigation with the
exception of the upper six miles, no extension has been made,
but labor which could be spared has been spent on the first
six miles, at a cost of Rupees 25,480-0-4
269. The seventh section has miade little progress, from, various causes,
one being the want of Indian experience among the officers in
charge. The masonry works, which are much behind, are
being pushed on, and in another year this portion may be fit to receive water.
Rupees 27,240-3-2 was expended on it.
270. The eighth section had, before work was suspended in 1865, made
so much more rapid progress than the seventh, that it was
thought advisable not to continue work on it until the seventh ^^ Section,
section was more advanced. Rupees 4,993-13-6 only was expended

72nd mile. As, therefore, it can be brought into use independently of the
seventh and eighth sections, the works have been gone on with as fast as the
labor available would allow, and the upper portion has made very fair progress.
The expenditure incurred in the year amounts to Rupees 95,255-4-4.
272. An anient across the Pennair, near Adimapully, was designed and
estimated for, but the plan was thought incapable of dis- Anient
charging extreme floods with safety, and was otherwise ob- ^«»^»^-
jectionable, and was disapproved by Government. This anient was for the

of the extension of this canal, as contemplated by the Company, and as to the
necessity or advisability of carrying the upper part on the high level of the
line chosen, no decision has been come to by Government.
2J5. The Masoor site, on the Choardy, has been surveyed, and the
Beserroir investi- estimates were nearly ready in March for submission to the
gations. Board of Directors. The estimates for the Luckawully site,
on the Budra, had been prepared, but the surveys were still incomplete. The
only other site under investigation is that on the Toonga, and the surveys of
this will not be finished until about the end of another year. The Masoor site
has been favorably reported upon, and it is probable that the construction of a
reservoir there, by the restoration of an old native tank, will be foimd feasible
and remunerative. The proposed reservoir would hold about 1,400 millions of
cubic yards when full, but it is as yet doubtful whether the supply in ordinary
years would exceed 700 to 800 millions.

Expenditure.
279. The Company's Agent drew from the Government Treasury in India,
during the year, Rupees 1,69,695-3-0, making a total from the
commencement of Rupees 90,61,968-3-8. £130,000 was raised
on loan in England, and Rupees 9,85,806-13-8 of this amount was remitted to
the Agent in India.
280. During the year Rupees 8,95,788-5-2 were expended in India, and
the cash balance at the year's end was Rupees 4,00,322-8-9.
The total expenditure in India, from the commencement, was
Rupees 1,00,13,260-4-3, and in England, by the Board, exclusive of the value of
those brought into the Indian accounts. Rupees 4,02,323. In addition to this,
the Directors had to account for the balance of the loan of £130,000, raised in
England, over the Rupees 9,85,806-13-8, remitted to India.

283. The Marine Department, during the past official year, has continued

284 Under the 5th clause of the 1 0th Section, the Merchant Shipping Act
of 1867, the Government have issued rules forbidding vessels j^^^^ ^^^ ,^.
to proceed to the United Kingdom without a proper supply ^«w^»«* ^^p"-
of lime juice, which has been inspected and certified to be of good quality by
the Port and Marine Surgeon. The rules, however, only have force with regard
to ships which left the United Kingdom after the 1st January 1868.
285. Under the same Imperial Act, rules have also been passed for the
medical examination of seamen before engagement. This Medical examina.
examination being, however, permissive, and not imperative, *i<»ofsoam«^
Commanders of vessels have not availed themselves of this mode of securing
healthy seamen, preferring rather to run the risk of shipping a diseased man
to paying the very moderate fee sanctioned as a remimeration to the examin-
ing Surgeon.
286. The only Marine Act passed during the year is No. VII of 1867, which
came fully into operation on the 7th December last. It was j^^ p^^^ ^^^
introduced for the purpose of consolidating and amending the ^^
laws relative to the levy of port dues in this Presidency. Its principal features
Ist. — ^It groups the ports in two groups. Eastern and Western, comprising-
the ports on the East and West Coasts of the Madras Presidency.
2nd. — It abolishes the distinction between Euro{^an and Native craft, and
establishes three classes of vessels, each rateable in different degrees : —
(1.) Vessels, not being coasting vessels or coasting steamers, which are
chargeable at all ports once in ninety days with the unit of due,
whatever that may be.
(2.) Coasting vessels, not being steamers, chargeable once in sixty days
at all ports with one-half of the unit rate.
(3.) Coasting steamers paying once in thirty days in the same group,
irrespective of the ports entered, one and a half the highest rate
\ levied in that group.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
70 Section Nl.— MARINE,
3rd. — It consolidates the various port funds into one fund, rendering the
sums raised at one port available for outlay at another.
The maximum rate of dues leviable is three annas the ton, but this rate is
levied only at four ports, at the thirteen others the rate being two annas.
The new rates are nearly double the former ones, but the funds have
been largely drawn upon, and have decreased considerably during the past
year. On the 1st April 1867, they stood in the aggregate at Rupees 2,41,358.
On the 1st April 1868, they shewed a credit of only Rupees 1,83,713, being a
diminution of Rupees 57,645, notwithstanding that a sum of nearly Rupees
24,000, the proceeds of flotsams and jetsams, had been transferred to them. The
outlay at the Presidency has been particularly heavy, 60,000 Rupees having
been sanctioned for pier repairs, and 30,000 Rupees for a Home for Sailors.
287. Notwithstanding the penalties imposed for overcrowding Native
Oyercrowding of passengers in small country craft, the evil stiU continues to
cMkft!* ***®°«®' a certain extent, and chiefly so in vessels bound from Ceylon
northwards, and passing through the Paumben channels. During the year
under review the masters and tindals of eight vessels have been fined imder Act
XXV of 1859, in sums amounting to Rupees 2,438, the cases having been heard
in the Court at Ramnad.
288. Several wrecks have occurred on the Coronlandel Coast during the
year, but only two that were not attributable to stress of
, weather. On the 18th June the U. S. Steam Frigate " Sacra-
mento," Captain Collins, left Madras for Cocanada, and at 7-30 p. m., on the
following day, ran ashore on a bank about sixteen miles south of Hope Island
light, and two and a half miles oflf shore. Every assistance was rendered to
the officers and crew by the Marine and other authorities at Cocanada, for
which the United States Government expressed their thanks. No lives were
lost, as the weather was fine, but a raft containing twenty-nine men and officers
drifted out to sea, and was subsequently picked up by Captain J. J. Ballantine,
of the B. I. S. N. Company's vessel " Arabia," who put back to Cocanada with
the men, a service which was acknowledged by the United States Government
by the presentation to him of a gold chronometer.
The only other vessel not driven ashore by stress of weather is the barque
" Douglas," which was wrecked about six miles south of the " Sacramento,"
on the 13th September. This was occasioned by carelessness in heaving the
lead. The Captain's certificate was suspended for a year.
The brig " Tar," having been much shaken in a gale, drifted ashore from
her last anchor at Vizagapatam on the 13th May.
The other vessels lost were the " Eliza Bencke," of 983 tons, and the
" Mercia," of 596 tons, which, with a native craft, were driven ashore in a
cyclone on the morning of the 30th September at the port of Calingapatam ;
the Captain and thirteen men of the first named vessel having been drowned.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Section Yl^—MARINE. 71
In the same cyclone the brig " Cktllant Neill," at Vizagapatam, and a native
craft of 112 tons at Poondy, were driven ashore and totally wrecked.
The wrecks of two or three vessels, among which were the " Lady
Amherst" and " " Michael Angelo," were washed npon the northern coast of
Ramiaseram island, near Paumben, in the early part of 1868.

their services having been engaged for the Abyssinian expedi-
tion. The only lines left are those established under contract, viz., once a
month by line between Calcutta and Bombay, and one between Madras and
Rangoon.
291. Revised Boat Rules have been brought into oper- Amended Boat
ation at most of the out-ports. 'BxjIim.
292. The weather has been generally favorable, but very dry. Strong
breezes have occasionally set in on oiu* coasts, but there has
been no continued bad weather, and the sea generally has
been smooth. A cyclone struck the coast about Vizagapatam on the night of
the 29th September, causing considerable damage to the shipping there and to
the north ; and on the setting in of the N. E. Monsoon, a heavy cyclone was
experienced in the eastern and southern part of the bay, during which two or
three vessels foundered, portions of the wreck of which drifted into Palks bay.
On the loth November, the "Blenheim," of 1,421t^ tons, which left Madras
on the 18th October, arrived at Cocanada totally dismasted. A Maldive boat
and a native vessel, the " Fyzel Careem," also put in there, during the same
month, dismasted.
293. The reliefs have not been heavy during the past year, but in conse- •
quence of this Government having been unable to procure
the assistance of any vessels belonging to the State, it has
been necessary to pay very highly for private ships for the purpose.
The ordinary reliefs of the season were principally eflfected by the Steamer
"Dacca," of 1,669 tons, belonging to the B. I. S. N. Company, and the
** Alnwick Castle," of 1,087 tons, the one under tow of the other. These vessels
were engaged by the authorities at Calcutta : the first at 27^ Rupees a ton
per month, exclusive of coal, with an additional 8 Annas a ton for each day
employed in towing ; the latter at 15 Rupees a ton per month.
The following statement will give an idea of the very heavy expense neces-

296. The lantern of the Santopillay Light-house, in the cyclone of the
29th September, was blown down and damaged to such an extent
as to be useless. Another was sent from Madras, and the light
again displayed on the 16th December last.
297. The bar at Bimlipatam silted up during the dry weather, and had
to be cut through, but during the cyclone of the 29thSeptem-

ber, a large quantity of silt was brought down the river which,
depositing at the mouth, formed the bar about 100 yards fturther to seaward.
At the same time no less than thirty-four boats were Swept out of the river
and lost.
298; The tiew revolving light on Hope Island has not yet been fixed^
oooanad and ^* ^ however, expected that, in a month or two, suflEicient
CJoringa. progress will have been made with the column to admit of
the new lantern being raised to the position it is to occupy. Suitable build-
ings have been erected for the light-keepers, a great deal* of discontent having
prevailed among the men last year on the score of bad quarters. The silting
up of the port continues, and the buoys will have to be placed a quarter of a
mile further out. The^ channel leading into Coringa river is getting shallower
and more intricate. A dredge has been at work at the mouth of this river for
some time.
The amount of tonnage entering the port has been on the increase for the
last four years. The native passenger traffic between Cocanada and the
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Section W.-^MARIXE,
opposite coast continues to be brisk, 2,641 passengei^ having left, and 1,519
returned.
Ship building is still carried on to a great extent : three yessels are on ^
the stocks, and several have been lengthened and repaired ; and a number of
cargo boats have also been built. There is now a superior class of native craft
jsailing out of this port, of fix>m three to five hundred tons burthen, sheathed
with zinc and yellow metal or copper, and commanded by intelligent natives,
using sextants and chronometers^ on salaries varying from 70 to 150 Rupees
per mensem. They are principally from the Maldive Islands^ and many hold
certificates.
The new h'ght at the port of Cocanada will not be used imtil the revolv-
ing one on Hope Island is put up.
299. At Masulipatam the depth in the river is still decreasing, and a
mud bank has formed on the north side of the bar, which.
Manilipatam.
however, has this advantage, that it renders the passage in
very smooth. This bank is increasing to seaward.
800. The pier, to which such objections existed when it was firat brought
into use, is now the principal point for the shipment and dis-
chazge of cargo ; and already it is found that the wharfage is ^'•^'^
not sufficient for the traffic. Occasionally the quantity of cargo is so great that
a dead lock ensues.
Considerable repairs were executed during the year, and it is hoped that,
the error which occasioned the necessity for repair having been remedied, the
pier will need no heavy ropairs for many yeans. [A very few days after this was
written, the pier received such damage as rondered it useless for traffic]
The depths remain about the same as beforo, about twenty feet at the
ladders. At the f head, however, the bank seems to have been permanently
increased. Originally, the depth thero was about twenty-six to twenty-seven
feet, for the last two years it has been seldom more than twenty-one feet.
The boat system of the port is in a most imsatisfactory condition, for
whenever a pressure of shipping operations occurs, the demand is invariably in
excess of the supply.
To meet the difficulties thus experienced, a lai^er class of boats, holding
from eight to fifteen tons, is now in course of introduction, and some iron
boats of similar burthen have been obtained by a Company from England,
while a revision of the boat rules is under the consideration of Government.
301. Little improvement has taken place in these channels during the
year under review. The cutting away the angular point in
the reef channel is still, unfinished, after eight years' labor;
and little has been done towards deepening the south channel to fourteen feet,
the delay being attributed to want of convict labor.

No TeBsels pass through drawing over eleven feet water, and very few
indeed at that depth.
There Lb a slight increase in the number of yessds that have passed
through ; the figures being 2,180, of which sixtj-two were steamers, against

fears were entertained for the safety of the town of Cochin. The constmction
of groynes to guard against the inroad of the sea has been sanctioned by
Government, and the work has been commenced imder the direction of the

The decrease under " Land Revenue" is owing to the particulai-ly unfavor-
able character of the season in the districts of Madras, North Arcot, Bellary,
and Cuddapah, and that imder " Abkarry," to the Farms having been resold
at less favorable rates in some districts, in consequence of the failure of the
original contractors* engagements. The sales of " Salt," and " Stamps," have
not been so large as were anticipated when the Budget Estimate was prepared,
while imder "Mint," and " Miscellaneous," the decreases are owing, the first
to copper coinage having been entirely suspended during the past official year,
and the second to some of the petty sources of income not having yielded
the estimated amounts.
The only items under which there has been any material increase are
"Forest," "Customs," and "Police."* The value of timber suppHed to

Public Works and other Departments, during 1867-68, is Rupees 1,57,000,
against Rupees 64,700 in 1866-67, while under "Customs,** the increase is in
conBequence of the enhancement of the export duty on grain and a steady
progress in the imports. Under " Police" the increase is owing to the more
favorable working of the Municipal Act in some of the Mofussil Towns.
308. In the expenditure the actuab have exceeded the Budget grants

1 7. — Administration and Public Departments „ 29,000
23. — Medical Services ... „ 57,000
27. — Miscellaneous „ 75,000
The increase under " Stamps" is to be foimd in the item of discoimt on
sales, for which the actuals amount to Rupees 1,19,000, against a provision of
Rupees 93,000 : this increase, however, in the discount is not incommensurate
with the increase under sales, as compared with the actuab of 1866-67. The
increase imder " Administration and Public Departments" is not very material^
being caused chiefly by the item Official Postage, for which no provision was
made in the original estimate. The excess under " Medical Services" is in
consequence of the recent revision made in the salaries of the Officers of that
Department, while imder " Miscellaneous" the increase is to be found chiefly
in the items of loss by exchange in transactions with the Home authorities
and contributions to the Municipal funds.
309. Except under the heads noted at foot of page,* the decrease in the
actuals on the Budget grants is not material. The savings DecreMeoraotiiai

consequence of the actuals for Collectors* establishments falling much below the
Budget provision, and the second by the charges for the provision of salt
having amoimted only to Rupees 9,81,000, against a provision of Rupees
13,43,000, while the decrease under " Mint" arises from suspension of copper
coinage. The payments on^ account of " Allowances to District and Village
Officers," though falling below the Budget provision, exceed the actuals of the
twelve months preceding 1867-68. Under "Law and Justice" the decrease
is chiefly on account of the contemplated revision of Judicial estabhshments
not having been as yet carried out, although increased provision was made for
them in the Budget Estimate. The charges on account of " Education, Science,
and Art," fall below the Budget provision, in consequence of the measures for

putting the Educational establishments of this Presidency on a superior footing
not having been carried out within the past official year. The provision under
** Ecclesiastical" being according to the sanctioned scale, the decrease arises
chiefly from savings on account of absence, &c. Under "Allowances and
Assignments under Treaties and Engagements" a large saving will be observed,
which is chiefly due to the provision made on account of Prince Azeem Jah
Bahadoor's debts not having been utilised during the past official year, while
the decreases under " Interest on Service Funds and other Accounts," and
" Superannuation, Retired, and Compassionate Allowances" arise from the
absorption of the Military Fund into the State receipts and charges.
On the whole, the financial results of the past year were not imfavorable,
the total receipts of 1867-68 exceeding those of the previous twelve months ;
the slight increase in the expenditure under certain heads, during that period, is
certainly not more than what the exigencies of the public service and improve-
ments in the administration justly necessitate.
310. The actual cash balance on the 31st March 1868 amounted to

of reducing the large copper balance at the Bank of Madras, the Government,
in August last, sanctioned 9Jk an experimental measure the sale by the Mint
Master of a portion of that balance at a discount of half an anna in the rupee.
The result of those sales has been a diminution in the amount of the copper at
the Bank from twelve-and-a-half lacs on the 1st August 1867 to ten lacs on Ist
April 1868, and it may, therefore, be said that two-and-a-half lacs have been
added to the copper circulation in the course of eight months, which must be
considered satisfactory.
312. During the year under report the Government Treasury work
at Cocanada, Bellary, Ootacamund, Calicut, Tuticorin, and ReBuitofthetrans-
Trichinopoly was transferred to Sub-Agencies of the Bank J^y' SSSSSj^
of Madras established there, the result of which has been Br"wJ»B^«*».
to eflfect a saving of Rupees 739 per months or Rupees 8,868 per annum,
in the accoimt establishments of five districts.* It was also arranged that
the surplus Government balances at Cocanada, Bellary, and Calicut, should,
whenever required, be brought to the credit of the Government cash balance in
the accounts of the Madras Bank, on the understanding that the Accountant
General refrained from drawing any bills upon such Moftissil Treasuries. This
arrangement, while it has considerably jelieved Government of the cost and
delay in moving the surplus funds from those places down to Madras, at the
same time utilises the cash balances, by placing them at the disposal ef the
Branch Bank for banking operations. The total Government cash balance in
the hands of theMadras Bank and its branches on the 1st April was as follows : —

PAPER CUEEENOY.
823. The transfer, towards the close of the last official year, of the
Notes in circaia- Exchange department from the Bank of Madras to the Cur-
*^°^ rency Office, had the eflFect of considerably reducing tlxo
nominal circulation, as the premium on the circulation which had been paid to
the Bank having ceased, it was no longer an advantage to hold its reserve in
notes, and consequently the stock held by the Bank has ever sinee been madk
smaller than it had been at any previous time.

It will be observed that the demand for notes, in the Provinces, is
greatly in excess of the notes presented for cash, but the Accountant General
reported to Government, on the 19th October 1867, that no inconvenience had
up to that time arisen from the accumulated coin paid into any Provincial
Treasiuy by the public in exchange for notes.
328. Notes of a new pattern, with their values printed in the four
Supply or new vernaculars, were introduced in June 1867, and are fast re-
pattern ifotes, placing those of the old pattern in the circulation.
The re-issue of the old pattern notes was stopped on the occurrence of a
successful forgery of a ten-rupee note, which was not detected by the Cashiers
of the Madras Bank. Several other forged notes were found in circulation, and
were traced to the North Arcot district, but no clue was obtained to the forger.

Travancorb.
333, A most important measure waa passed during the year by His
CiTiiJnitico. Highness the Maharajah, in a Regulation for establishing an
unproved system of Registration of Assurances. Registration,
through public notaries, has long existed in Travancore, but m a manner open
to serious objections and defects, which need not be dwelt upon here. The
present measure is baaed upon the Act No. XX of 1866, for British India, By
it, the registration is made compulsory of all deeds relating to immovable
property, and to rights connected with the same. A separate maehineiy ha^
been provided for carrymg out the regulation, independent of the local revenue
and other establishments, as this seemed essential for the success of the measure.
The introduction of the Statute of Limitation, alluded to in the last year's
report, was referred for another year, to prevent hardship to litigants.
The work of the Ovil Courts has again this year largely increased, mostly
by the continued pressure mto Court, of suits affected by the last named law.
The disposal of Appeals from the Zillah or District Courts, if taken as an
index of the quality of work done, cannot be regarded as satisfactory, as only
about one-half of the cases were confirmed on appeal.
There is no doubt that progress is being made m this branch, but the num-
ber of petitions stiU received by the Resident, against the proceedings of the
Sudder and other Courts, mdicates a want of full confidence on the part of the
people, which possibly has been somewhat fostered by the introduction of legal
technicaHties from the British Indian Courts. In mtroducing persons from the
British Service, with their better legal experience, it is necessary to guai-d
against the old usages and prescriptive laws of Travancore being over-ridden
by abstract principles of British law. The retention of a second Judge, who is
generaUy weU versed in the customs of the country, was found useful in this
respect, and the time has not come for pla<5ing ea<jh of the District Courts
under a single Judge, as the Government looked forward to in their Proceedimca

Statement, however, of the graver cases, which are submitted

Digitized by VjOOQIC
Section yill.— POLITICAL. 87
only one-fourth of the recommendations, amountmg to twenty-nine, were con-
firmed, eighteen being modified, and four reversed. This shews either very
defective judgment on the part of these Courts, or some caprice on the part of
the Sudder Court in not paying deference to the decisions of the examining
Courts. It is difficult to account for this altogether on the first supposition.
385. The Police under the Dewan's supervision is, upon the whole, active^
but the large nimiber of ofifences, which continue to be charged
against the officials of this department, particularly those
who are lowest paid, indicates a state far from efficient. Since the close of the
Malabar year, the salaries have been increased by 15,000 Rupees per anniun,
but upon the old organization. Much more is still needed to improve the
position and the personnel of this department. The pay of the Peons, as
recently increased, is still only Rupees 4-7-0 a month, which is an insufficient
salary to remove the temptations to the abuses of authority above alluded ta
336. These call for little special remark on the present occasion, except
that their sanitary state has been well maintained. The
mortality has been a trifle under four per cent, on the average ^*^
daily numbers.
337. This item of revenue amounted to Rupees 16,77,664, or about
Rupees 37,000 above last year's amount. This mostly arose
from the extension of cultivation.
It is to be regretted that nothing has been actually done about the re-
assessment of garden lands, notwithstanding its having been in contemplation
for the last seven or eight years or more, and all the principles upon which it
should be conducted having been discussed with, and approved by, the Resident
as far back as January 1866. His H^hness the Maharajah is alive to the
importance of the measure, which will bring in three lacs or more of annual
revenue, which will be realised in a most unexceptionable way, by bringing
under taxation trees which, according to the usages of Travancore, should have
been assessed at the end of twelve years. It is now nearly thirty years since
the last adjustment took place. The matter has been constantly and earnestly
pressed upon the Dewan, and the delay in carrying out the measure may be
said to have been a loss to the State of many lacs of rupees, which additional
revenue could have been most usefidly employed in accelerating, by years, the
measures more recently carried out for the improvement of the several depart-
ments, by the increase of salaries and the grant of pensions, &e., &q.
An important measure, connected with the land tenures, was passed by
His Highness the Maharajah in a Proclamation, defining the rights of Jenmies
(or original proprietors) and their tenants. This solution of this long vexed
question has been highly satisfactory, and is calculated to give certainty to the
action of the Courts, and stability to the respective rights of the parties.

338. The export trade continues to suffer depression. The value
amounted to Rupees 42,60,000, of which more than half is
in the products of the cocoa-palm. The duty amounted to
Rupees 3,07,000, against Rupees 2,50,000 in the previous year. The increase
of about half a lac of rupees is nominal, as the guaranteed amount of Customs
was credited for two years, and a stricter comparison leaves a decrease of about
Rupees 16,000. This is accounted for, mostly by the reduction of the excep-
tional duty on the areca-nuts to the ordinary export rate of duty, which must
have a beneficial effect in removing many evil practices, and giving encourage-
ment to the cultivation of this article. During the year, the exceptional duty
on pepper was reduced fi*om 15 Rupees to Rupees 9 a candy. Act III of
1861, provided for the levy of the former duty at British Cochin on behalf
of these States. This has been so far repealed by Act II of 1868, as to
substitute the lower duty, and to provide for any further reduction hereafter.
339. The gross revenue is eight lacs of rupees, against about seven lacs
in the previous year, and the net amount, after deducting the
cost of foreign salt and other items of expenditure, is a little
over five and a half lacs. The cost may be much reduced by the extension of
the salt pans in the south, so as to greatly increase the home manufacture.
The Sirkar has been losing about one lac of rupees yearly for a long time
past, by being unable to supply the outlying talook of Shencottah with salt,
owing to the line of road by the Puliaray pass being unfit for its transit.
The Government has recently consented to an arrangement, by which the salt
for that locality is allowed to pass through the Tinnevelly district ; but as
its transit through British India without payment of duty is illegal, the Gov-
ernment decided that the duty should, under the circumstances, be refunded.
The necessity for this indulgence will, it is hoped, soon cease by the opening
up the road in question.
The annual increase of revenue accruing from raising the selling price of
salt to the standard in British India, is now about three to three and a half
lacs of rupees.
340. The tobacco revenue, amounting to Rupees 7,41,122, shews an
increase of Rupees 6,000. In the consumption, Uiere is a
Tobacco. .«. . r 7 r -»

The monopoly having given place to an import duty for the last five
years, and the reduction in the latter having now had full effect, it seems
desirable to take a brief review of the administration of this branch of the
revenue, and, in doing so, it is unnecessary to dilate upon the evils of the former
monopoly, and their aggravation on the abolition of the monopoly in 1851-52,
in the neighbouring provinces of Canara and Malabar.
The former gross revenue from this source was about eleven and a half
lacs of rupees, and the consumption 3,900 candies. In six or seven years, from
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Section y III.— POLITICAL. 8»
the ttbolition of the monopoly m Canara and Malabar, the revenue fell to about
eight and a half lacs of rupees, and the consumption in proportion. By the
employment of stringent measures for the suppression of smuggling during
the last fire years of the monopoly, the revenue was brought up to the former
standard of eleven and a half lacs of rupees, and the consumption to 4,876
candies.
On the substitution of the import duty in 1861-62, the consumption
rapidly rose, till it now amounts to 7,218 candies in 1866-67, being an increase
of not much less than about seventy per cent. The revenue, however, fell at
once to nine and a quarter lacs, and subsequently, by reduction in the import
duty, to about seven and a half lacs of rupees, its present standard. This,
however, may be expected to rise gradually with Ihe further increased con-
sumption.
341. The forest revenue is still very small (Rupees 41,000) compared
with what might be easily realised by a better system, and the
opening out of roads. The destruction of timber every year
for a passing crop of paddy or other grain is enormous. A special officer has
Been appointed to check this waste, but the only effectual remedy for the evil
is the absolute prohibition of all cultivation of this kind.

hitherto no trace of the borer or other destructive insect. The planters have,
in almost all cases, been secured in their rights by the survey of their lands and
ihe issue of title deeds.
Tea cultivation, judging from the results derived from the experimental
{gardens at Peermade, promises, if anything, to be still more successful It has
not, however, yet been taken up to any extent by planters.
The Chinchona experiment appears to be progressing favorably.

tained of it, though there is still much to be attained. This
year, progress has so far been made that the scholars in thk branch, one
hundred in number, are candidates for the Matriculation examination. There
are classes also for the higher examinations, and the necessity for another
European Master is imperative, which will be a step towards the ultimate
desideratum of the formation of a College department.
The General School, under Mr. Bensley's able management, has about 675
scholars, and a preparatory branch has been opened, which promises to be
Urfely filled.

The Girls* School, under the Lady Superintendent who came out a year
ago, has been completely reorganized, and has gained considerable reputation
with the class of East Indians in particular.
The English District Schools continue to advance, and several of the
Vernacular Schools, alluded to in the last report, have been opened. The
appreciation of education in all its branches is felt and evidenced by the
increasing demand for it.
344. The Medical department keeps up its efficiency ; three local hospitals
were opened during the year, and other similar Institutions, for
which the annual grant of His Highness the Maharajah of
Kupees 20,000 provides, will follow.
The Vaccination branch continues to be efficiently superintended by Dr.
Pulney Andy.
345. The Nair Brigade, which is a Militia force, has been somewhat improv-
ed in its position by a slight addition to the pay of the men,
who, however, in most instances, supplement this by the occu-
pation of land and other resources.

ed success.
348. The expenditure on public works continues at about five and a half
lacs of rupees. Some check was experienced on the departure
of the Engineer, Mr. Barton, to England on sick leave.
The expenditure on the Victoria Canal Works was nearly Rupees 81,000,
bringing the total cost up to nearly six lacs.
The new public offices have considerably progressed, Rupees 93,293 having
been expended upon the work during the year.
Progress has also been made with the Peermade Ghaut works, on which
Rupees 31,600 were spent, besides some Rupees 40,000 on the bridge under
construction over the Moondakayom river, at the foot of the ghaut. The

Rupees 20,000, and other important roads have been constructed in South

A large girder bridge, of eleven bays, is under construction over the

The repair and improvement of irrigation works in South Travancore
have not progressed so satisfactorily as could have been desired during the

appointment of the Assistant Engineer has proved a failure.
The Vurkally barrier project, alluded to last year, has not been entered

Political.
This interchange of friendly visits, which has had no prece-
dent in the present generation, is calculated to have a beneficial eflFect irt
promoting the common interests of both of these Native States.
The visit of His Excellency the Governor, being in return for the
Maharajah's visit to Madras for the investiture of the Order of the Star of
India, the reception of His Lordship by the Maharajah was made as cordial and
magnificent as possible, and was perhaps unparalleled in the history of Travan-
core. Lord Napier's visit has given great encouragement to His Highness'
administration, and tended to cement those feelings of loyalty and attachment
which have long prevailed. The same may be said with regard to the Cochin
State, where His Lordship met with a no less welcome reception.
His Highness* policy continues to be guided by the same enlightened
principles as hitherto, and the Dewan, Sir T. Madava, has, as usual, been
zealous and indefatigable. It cannot, however, be said that the efforts of the
executive administration have been altogether judiciously apphed to the best
advantage of the State, for the long pending measure of the garden re-assess-
tnent, noticed more fully above, still rests on promises and assurances. Credit
lias in every report been given for measures of progress, many of which are of
an important as weU as of a popular character, but considering that Travancore
is a province not larger than a good sized Collectorate of this Presidency, and
the revenue less than that of several, the accomplishment of the measure might
bave been expected in the prolonged period alluded to,.

of the personnel of the Appeal Court and each (^ the Zillah
CiRirtSr The enrolment of Pleaders, after being subjected to examination, has
also here, as in Travanoore, facilitated the yfork o£ the Courts.
The Courts have kept pace with the increase of work devolving upon them,
and there has been greater expedition in the disposal of cases.
Taking the particulars of the Appeals in the several Courts, as indicating
in a measure the quality of justice, the result appears, upon the whole, fiB.v<Nrabl&
352. On the Criminal side there has been equal progress in the Courts.
The jnrisdictian of the Zillah Courts was considerably increased,
and the Session Court, consisting of one of the Judges of the
Appeal Court in rotation, for the re-trial of heinous cases, has been abolished.
These cases are now referred totheAppeal Court, for their confirmation <^ the
sentence recommended by the lower Courts, as in Travancora Their disposal in
this mann^ has proved satisfactory, and tended greatfy to expedite justice,,
while the people are relieved from the inconvenience anl hardship of the d^y
of a re-trial under the forraer system. Although the Appeal Court is as yet
somewhat weak in its constitution, the tribunals in this State will compare not
unfavorably with those in Travancore ; but there r^nains much to be dime here
as well as in that State, to raise them to the standard that Edioiidd be held
in view.
353w Under the vigilant superintendence of the Dewan, the Pdice has
somewhat improved in efiBciency, and gang robberies, which
were noticeable in last year's returns^ have be«i greatly reduced
and promptly dealt with.
354. The improvements in the principal jails alluded to last year are
in progress. They have, as usual, proved healthy, although
densely crowdec^ with a minimum of ventilation. The ratio of
Hoortality in the two Jails were one and a quarter and a little over four per cent.
respectively.
355. The land revenue amounts to Rupees 5,90,000, or upwards <^half
the resources of the State, and is about Rupees 5,000 above
last year's amount. The cultivation in the Trichoor lake has
always been in a measure unceji^in and affected by unfavorable seasons ; the
canal through the lake, recently completed, will tend to mitigate, though it will
not remove, this evil.
356. About 8,000 acres have been taken up for coffee.
Every year will now produce an increased revenue from tni»

857. The customs revenue actually collected by the Sirkar has beea
reduced to a mere trifle, but it falls back upon the annual
guarantee of Government (Rupees 1,10,500) imder the inter- ^^'*^*<*°"-
portal arrangements.
358. The Salt revenue has nearly recovered from the lamentable falling
off in the previous year. This branch will continue to require
the Dewan's vigilant supervision, and the co-operation of the
Malabar Collector is required to suppress the illicit manufacture for which there
are such facilities on the backwaters.
359. The English School at Emacollum continues to prosper under the
assiduous care of Mr. A. F. Sealey, m. a. The Emacollum school
Sducfttioo*
building premises, for which His Highness the Rajah has liber-
ally granted the sum of Rupees 27,000, have considerably progressed,
360. The Shoranoor bridge has now been opened. It has cost three and
a quarter lacs of rupees. Funds will now be available to
secure the services of a professional Engineer for this State, ° ^
which have long been needed.
The branch line from the Madras Railway to Cochin has been under sur-
vey for some time. It appears that Puttamby, instead of Shoranoor, is likely
to be selected as the point of junction, though there is not yet any official
annoimcement of this.
The Cochin Grovemment not unnaturally feels no little disappointment at
the Shoranoor bridge being thus rendered almost useless, though it was designed
by British officers, and with the express view of carrying a railway, for a double
line of which provision was made in the construction of the piers. An uncon-
ditional offer of the bridge was made to the Company for the purpose.
The Sirkar now regrets that the resources of the State have been taxed
to so great an extent without contributing in any way to promote the project it
was mainly intended to facilitate.
The Public Works expenditure amounted to Rupees 1,60,000, or fourteen
per cent of the total revenue of the State.
361. This port, with its still water, continues to be in-
creasingly resorted to in the monsoon months.

364. The payments to Camatic stipendiaries (including Jaghiredars)
amounted, during the official year, 1867-68, to Rupees 6,43,030. This amount
exceeds, by Rupees 72,530, the amount estimated in the Budget of 1867-68.
The difference is accounted for by Nabob Khyre-u-Nissa Begum having drawn
in that year a large sum of arrears, which had been accumulating from 1st
December 1865 to 3l8t March 1867. On the death of the late Nabob of the
Camatic, Government entrusted to Her Highness, as the head of the Khia-
Mah^ department, a sum of Rupees 1,73,756 due to that department. A
portion of this sum Her Highness ought to have distributed to the persons to
whom it was due, but Her Highness neglected this obligation, tiU Government
were compelled to direct that a certain portion* of Her Highness' stipend
should be deducted till the amount due as above was accumulated. This having
been done, the arrears are now being settled. The total amount recovered from
Her Highness up to 3l8t March 1868 is Rupees 70,000. Of this about Rupees
54,000 have been settled by agreement between Her Highness and the claimants.
The number of persons receiving pensions on the 1st April 1868 was
1,210. The lapses by death, Ac, in 1867-68, were fifty-seven persons, whose
pensions amount in the aggregate to Rupees 10,835 per annum.
Bonuses to the amount of Rupees 49,497-10-0 were granted in com-
mutation of 128 stipends, not exceeding Rupees ten per mensem, amounting
to Rupees 5,790 per annum.
Petty claims against the estate of the late Nabob were settled to the
amount of Rupees 9,558-4-0, and arrears of salary and pensions amounting to
Rupees 6,413-0-6 were paid.
A Commissioner was appointed under Madras Act No. III. of 1867, and
has been engaged in the settlement of the debts of His Highness Prince Azim
Jah. It is expected that he will bring his operations to a close shortly after
the end of the current year.

active and judicious measures pursued, proved to be only a slight outbreak of
this disease, in a detachment of Volunteers for the 3rd Battalion 60th Rifles,
on board the steam ship Burmah, from Calcutta. The disease made its appear-
ance when they were off Cocanada, and four cases occurred on board, two of

George, the vessel on touching at Madras was ordered to Ennore, where the
troops were landed. One fatal case occurred after disembarkation ; but the
men generally were in excellent health.
The total nimiber of cases, during the year, was sixteen, and the number of

have occurred in the Native Army, a result which may be attributed to the
success of the sanitary and prophylactic measures adopted for the protection
of the Troops from epidemic and contagious diseases.
395. The most prevalent diseases, during the year, have been fevers of the
intermittent and remittent types, which have caused fifty-two Diseases moat
casualties. The largest proportion of these was in Burmah and ^^®'* ^^ '

897. The number of Colleges and Schools connected with the Educational
Department at the close of the year was 1,687, with an atten- Number of Schools
dance of 62,975 scholars ; the corresponding numbers for the »°d^i>*i8-
previous official year having been 1,386 and 51,118. These figures exhibit an
increase of 301 schools and 11,857 pupils during the year under review; but
the Director states that while the augmentation of pupils is accurately repre-
sented by the latter number, that of Colleges and Schools is in reality less
than 301. This circumstance, it is explained, arises from the fact that in last
year's report, an institution containing a College department for educating
youths up to the B. A. staiidard, as weU as a School department for conveying
instruction up to the University Entrance course, was reckoned as a single
institution ; while now, in accordance with the Orders of the Government of
India of the 11th December 1867, No. 1,252, the two departments are entered
separately, and the institution is thus counted twice. The institutions treated
in this manner" are fourteen in number. The real increase, therefore, in the
number of schools is 287. Normal Schools have been reckoned as single insti-
tutions in all cases. There is an apparent increase of nine Government insti-
tutions, but of these, six are given by the separation of departments just
noticed ; the remaining three being a Talook School in the District of Vizaga-
patam, and two elementary schools in the Gumsur Hills. The comparative
non-extension of Government Schools under inspection, is in accordance with
the policy laid down by Government. While the nimiber of Government
Schools has increased to a very trifling extent, the attendance at such schools
has risen by 732 ; and this, notwithstanding the abolition of the junior classes
in some of those schools.

UniToraity Exa- '^^^ ^^ t^® [University, relating to the fees for admission to
minations. ^g several Examinations in Arts, and which are to take effect
from 1868-69. The fee for Matriculation haa been raised from Rupees 6 to 8 ;
that for the First Examination in Arts, from Rupees 10 to 15 ; and that for
the B. A. Examination from Rupees 26 to 30.

The new rule under which candidates at the Matriculation examination are
required to secure one-third of the maximum marks in English, instead of
one-fourth, as previously demanded, was brought into operation in 186 7-68.
The change might have been expected to reduce the nimiber of candidates for
the year ; but such was not the effect, 1,069 candidates having presented them-
selves for examination in December 1867, against 895 in the previous year.
The progress of Anglo-Vernacular education in private schools, is shewn
by 210 passed candidates proceeding from those institutions, while only 128
came from Government schools. The former number exceeds that for 1866-67
by forty-six, and the latter is less than the corresponding number for that yelar
by fourteen. The falling off in regard to Government schools is ascribed to a
greatly diminished nimiber of matriculated students in the Provincial College
at Combaconum ; and on this point it is stated that, during the past year, the
College has had for the first time a second year as well as a first year collegiate
class, in consequence of which the Matriculation class was imable to obtain as
large a share of attention from the senior teachers as fell to it in former years.
The number of private schools which sent up successful candidates to the
Matriculation examination of 1867-68; wa« forty-four against forty for 1866-67 ;

the tsteady increase shewn by the numbers for the former years, nineteen,
twenty-nine, and forty, has consequently received a check most probably from
the increase in the minimum in English.
While the majority of candidates for Matriculation came from private
schools, the case is different in respect of candidates for the higher University
Examinations ; of those who passed the First Examination in Arts in 1867-68,
seventy-one came from Government, and forty-six from private schools. Here
there is a decided falling off on the part of the latter Institutions, as for
1866-67 the numbers stood at fifty-seven for Government, and fifty-nine for
private schools. The total number of passed candidates at the First Arts
test is only greater by one than that for t^e previous year.
The results of the Bachelor of Arts Examination for 1867-68 shew a
slight improvement over those for 1866-67, the total number of Bachelors
being greater by one, and one of the candidates for 1867-68 having secured
a place in the first class, while nothing higher than a second class was^obtained
the previous year.
The Bachelor of Laws Examination was attended by fourteen candidates,
of whom ten succeeded in passing, seven being placed in the second, and the
rest in the tbird class. Up to the close of 1866-67, the graduates in Law
numbered twenty-three ; the addition of ten during the past year must, there-
fore, be regarded as a satisfactory result.
During the year under review, the Degree of Licentiate in Medicine and
Surgery was corfferred upon an ex-student of the Medical College, who claimed
it under a Resolution passed by the Senate of the University in 1864. Ac-
cording to the Regulations now in force^ the above degree has been rejdaced
by that of Bachelor of Medicine and Master of Surgery.

403. At the close of 1867 the lowest class of the Junior department was
abolished in pursuance of the plan originally laid down, Predidency Ooi-
under which the College is ultimately to contain only Matri- '•*•*
culated Students qualifying for the B. A. Degree.
The increase in the numerical strength of the senior department, which,
at the close of the official year, contained 104 students, against 85 in the
preceding year, is satisfactory. Of the 104 College students, 46 belonged
to the Town of Madras and the adjoining district of that name* The remain-
ing 58 came from other districts, the largest numbers being frx>m Malabar
and Travancore, North Arcot, Salem, Ceylon, Bellary, and South Arcot. In
the several University Examinations of 1867-68, the College may be said to
have, on the whole, been successfrd ; the number of passed candidates being
eleven out of fourteen sent up for the B. A. Degree Examination, twenty-three
out of twenty-eight for^e First Examination in Arts, and twenty-nine out of
fifty-eight for the Matriculation Examination. The results of the ordinary
College Examinations were also generally satisfactory.
The new College building is expected to be finished early in 1869.
404. This institution, which was raised to its present grade at the begin-
ning of 1867, will not send up its first set of candidates for provincial OoUego,
the B. A. Degree until February 1869. The numerical ^^^**«>™^
strength of the senior department, or College proper, at the close of the year,
was fifty-seven ; it is worthy of notice that this number is equal to that of the
senior department of the Presidency College for the year 1863-64 In the
school department the number of pupils was 332. The results of the examin-
ation of the several classes were, as usual, very satisfactory.
The Director notices in his report the liberality of a Hindu gentleman,
Chandrapakasa Moopanar, formerly a pupil in the Combaconiun Provincial
School, in having invested a sum of money sufficient to endow two Scholarships
of Rupees seven each per mensem, and to offer for competition an annual gold
medal of the value of 100 Rupees. These benefactions, with the Beauchamp
Medal and the Edward Bird Scholarship, constitute gratifying proofs of the
interest taken in this institution by the inhabitants of the Tanjore District.

405. At the commenoement of the Session, there wer^ eight students in
the Senior department, fifty in the Second, and sixty-three in
the Junior department. Of the students in the senior
department only one had completed the prescribed course at the close of the
Session, and was awarded the diploma of the College. It should be remarked
here that, with the issue of this Diploma, the privilege of granting Degrees of
Medicine enjoyed by the College since 1852, has come to an end. Henceforward
all students in the senior department must pass the University Examinations
in order to obtain Degrees in Medicine and Surgery.
Of the students in the second department, forming the senior class, ten
were found quaHfied for the grade of Assistant Apothecary ; and of those in
the Jimior department twenty-two were passed as Hospital Assistants. The
conduct of the students generally is reported to have been good.
406. The number of students in the Civil Engineering College at the close
oiniBngineorinff of the last Session was 102, of whom seven belonged to the
^^®^®* first department, fifty-seven to the second department, and
thirty-eight to the special department for Surveying and Drawing. None of
the students of the first department had completed the prescribed period at
the last annual examination ; but one of them, a Military student, who was
considered by the Principal to have made great progress in his studies, having
been required to proceed to Abyssinia in September last, was given a special
examination, on the results of which he was awarded a certificate as Assistant
Engineer. Nineteen students of the second department passed as Talook
Overseers, while the remaiiiing six passed the minor test required for the Bengal
Public Works Department. In the special department eleven pupils secured
certificates for drawing, and eight, certificates for surveying. The results of
the annual examinations were, on the whole, satisfactory ; and the conduct of
the students was generally good.

The report on the Provincial School at Bellary is satisfactory. In regard
to the School at Calicut, the Director reports that, though it has advanced of
late years, it has not made as much progress as was hoped for. The pronuncia-
tion of English in all the classes is stated to be very defective. In regard to the
instruction in the vernacular languages also, which was unfavorably noticed in
1866-67, improvement is still called for. The Mangalore Provincial School is
reported to have made as much progress during the year under review as the
educational backwardness of the district and the weakness of the teaching staff
would permit. At present instruction is imparted in this school up to the
standard of the University Matriculation Examination, but it is hoped that by
the beginning of 1869 it will be found practicable to establish a class for pre-
paring students for the First Examination in Arts.
Zillah Schooh.
409. Of the Zillah Schools,* those at Chittoor and Madura are as usual the
most advanced, the former taking the lead in respect both of
the nimiber and the attainments of the pupils. The
schools at Cuddalore, Berhampore, and Cuddapah have improved. The report
on the school at Rajahmundry is very unsatisfactory ; and this is attri-
buted mainly to the existence of a species of feud between the master who
was in charge of the school and some of his subordinates. The school has
been placed in charge of another master. With respect to the school at
Kumool, the Director reports that, owing to the disadvantages arising from
the backwardness of the district and the unhealthiness of the town, it will take
some time before the school reaches the position it is intended to occupy.

The school at Salem is favorably reported upon. As regards the Madrissa-i-
Azam, the report is not altogether favorable.
During the year under review, Pacheappah Mudaliar's Central Institution
was placed in connexion with the Educational Department, and received
various grants, amoimting to about Rupees 558 per mensem. This school,
which rests on the solid foundation of a tolerably large funded capital, and is
under the management of a body of Trustees, is the most important Hindu
Institution in the Presidency. The State aid now given to this Institution
will not merely enable the Trustees to put it into thoroughly good working
order, but will allow of their establishing new schools with the portion of their
funds set free.
410. The Church Mission School at Masulipatam, the Free Church
Prirate institu- Mission Central Institution at Madras, and the Gospel So-
ciass. ciety's High School at Tanjore, are reported as standing the
foremost among private schools of the first class in the educational divisions
in which they are respectively located. The results of the University Examina-
tions, in reference to the Candidates sent up from these institutions, as well as
the results at the departmental inspections, bear ample testimony to the very
efficient manner in which they are managed. The Gospel Society's Seminary
at Sullivan's Gardens is also specially noticed by the Director. He states that
" though this institution is professedly a theological one, iiie Principal, the
Revd. Mr. Symonds, has felt it incimibent upon him to bring his students
forward in secular as well as in religious studies, and his exertions have been
mark^ with decided success. Beside a very creditable nimiber of pupils who
passed the First Arts and Matriculation tests last year, one student obtained
the degree of Bachelor of Arts, being ranked in the second class." The
Doveton Protestant College at Madras appears to have suffered during the
year imder review from the circumstance of several changes having been made
in the staff of teachers. Of the five students of the College who presented
themselves for the First Arts Test, the whole failed ; but of the ten Matricula-
tion Candidates sent up for examination, eight were successful. The other
private schools of the first class under Government inspection do not call for
any special notice.
411. The returns again exhibit a very considerable increase in the
Middle dasi number of middle class schools, which, at the close of the past
*'*^^^- official year, numbered 391, with an attendance of 23,089
pupils. The increase in the number of schools, amounting to 1 1 1, is distributed
over the sixteen districts noted at foot,* the greatest number of new schools

being in the Godavery District, where twenty-three new middle class schools
were either established or brought under inspection.
The nnmber of Government Schools of the middle class, at the close of
1 867-68, is sixty-nine, which is in excess of the number for the preceding year by
only one. The Anglo- Vernacular Government Schools have all l)ecn favorably
repoi-ted upon, and the reports on the Talook Schools are also, for the most part,
satisfactory. In the last annual report, the backward state of the Talook
Schools in Ganjam was made the subject of remark. It appcai-s from the
report now under review, that these schools have, with one exception, marie
decided progress in respect of both the attainments and the attendance of the
pupils.
^ Of the newly opened middle class schools, one, an Anglo-Vernacular
School, was established by the Rajah of Vencatagherry at Naidupott in the
Nellore district, and the expenses are met by a small land-tax paid by the
ryots in the Naidupett division. With the view of giving permanency to the
Hindu School at Cocanada, the Rajah of Pittapore has munificently presented
it with the handsome sum of Rupees 24,000, to be invested in Government
Securities as an Endowment Fund. The Maharajah of Vizianagi-am, whose
enlightened eiForts to raise the standard of the Samastanum School, establish-
ed by His Highness, were noticed in the last report, is stated now to be
engaged in foimding schools of an elementary character at different places in
his Zemindary, and which, it is expected, will feed the Vizianagi-am Institu-
tion and assist it in taking the position which its founder desires it to occu})}-.
The Zemindar of Bobbili and his Dewan are reported to take more interest
than they previously did, in the school esttiblished by the former in that
Zemindai-y.
412. The number of schools of the lower class connected with the de-
partment has risen from 985, with an attendance of 19,510 schoou of the
pupils, to 1,125, with an attendance of 23,263 pupils. Under ^^*®'' ''^**^^-
the head of Girls' Schools, most of which may be classed as lower class schools,
there has been an increase of 35 schools and 3,425 pupils. It appears that,
besides the 110 schools for females, there aie 164 schools with a mixed
attendance, the girls therein numbering 1,309.
At the close of the year there were 721 schools under the operation of
the scheme for improving indigenous schools on the payment-for-results plan,
as first introduced into the Coimbatore District. Of these, 259 are in that
district, 159 in Nellore, forty-three in Madura, thirty-nine in Cuddapah, and
twelve in North Arcot.
413. The Madras Normal School has not yet recovered the position which
it held some years ago. The Normal classes are stated to N^^rmai Schw '
have suffered, partly from certain changes made in the teach-

ing staff; which had the effect of depriving the students of a part of their
instruction for a considerable portion of the year, and partly from the circum-
stance of the classes having been formed of youths who ought never to have
been allowed to join them. The new Principal, however, who took charge of
the institution towards the close of June 1867, has been using his best endeav-
ours to bring it into a sound condition ; and he has been aided by his Assist-
ants ; but time will be required before this important institution will regain
the position which it formerly occupied. At the University Examinations in
December 1867, only four Normal pupils, out of seventeen, passed the First Arts
test, and five out of twenty-eight, the Matriculation examination ; while out
of six pupils who went up from the Practising School for the latter test, three
were successful. With reference to the unsatisfactory results of the examin-
ations, the Inspector quotes in his report the following remarks by the Prin-
cipal : — " An educational institution constituted as this is, in which a fourth
" or more of the time of every student is employed either in teaching or in
" special duties, can scarcely hope to prove as successful in the examinations as
" others, where the sole business of the students is to study the subjects required
*^ for them. * * * Were it possible for the students to dispose of their work
" in one continuous period of three or four months, and be left at liberty for the
** remainder of the year to devote their whole attention to the subjects required
" for the examinations, they would have a far better chance of success than at
" present." The Inspector observes that this is a question of great importance.
The following remarks by the Principal, as to the increased interest which is
evinced in the Criticism Lessons, which form a portion of the special work of the
Normal classes, (viz. , the practice and theory of teaching, ) are deservingof notice : —
" The most important feature in the special work of the students was undoubtedly the
Criticism Lessons. They excited far more interest, and were looked forward to withmoi^
eagerness than any part of their duties. They were usually appointed several days before
the time for giving them, so that ample time was allowed for their preparation. The pro-
vision made in the time-table for the delivery of the lesson and the criticisms thereon was
only an hour and a half, but it was always found necessary to exceed that time. Ordina-
rily, instead of finishing at five, the proceedings extended to half -past, and sometimes even
so late as six. All the superior masters, and all the students, except those engaged in
Practising Schools, were present, and the proceedings were conducted by the former in
rotation, though each delivered his opinion of the lesson after the students' criticisms had
been obtained. Every student present on the occasipn, waa afterwards required to record
his remarks in a book provided for the purpose, which were subsequently examined by the
master who presided."
The Inspector reports that the Students' Note Books, in which remarks
are entered on the lessons of criticism, are more satisfactory than formerly.
** The notes are fuUer and better ; and corrected for each lesson by the master
<5 who presides on the occasion; the corrections applying as well to the language
« as to the matter :" and he is of opinion that this part of the special work could
not be done in a better way.
The progress of the Normal School atCannanore is, on the whole, creditable.

Section ^—EDUCATIONAL, 117
The Normal School at Trichmopoly has been reported on very favorably,
and that at Vellore appears to have done welL
Upon the whole, taking the practismg brandies of the Normal Schools
into account, the results for 1867-68 are as follows : — ^Five students passed the
First Arts Examination ; twenty-four, the Matriculation; twenty-five secured
certificates of the fourth, and nineteen, certificates of the fifth grade ; and seventy- '
five took up appointments as teachers.
414. An examination of candidates for Teachers' Certificate was held at
twenty-eight different stations in the beginning of August Bnunination for
1867; 581 Candidate Masters and twenty-six Candidate oate.
Mistresses underwent the test, 210 of the former and nine of the latter proving
successfid. While the number of candidate teachers was smaller by eighty-six
than that for 1866-67, the number of passed candidates was lai^er by twenty-
one ; this result may be considered satisfactory, so far as it indicates more
careful preparation on the part of the candidates, but it is to be regretted that
a more numerous body of female teachers did not come forward. The falling
off in the nimiber of Schoolmistresses attaches chiefly to Tinnevelly and Madras ;
from the former district only seven came up against thirty-seven for the pre-
vious year, while the number of passed mistresses stands at against 15.
41 5. The nxunber of schools supported by a rate under the provisions of the
Madras Education Act, as entered in the returns of the year, „ ^ «_ ,
is 107, which exceeds the number at the close of 1866-67 by ^^
twelve. Some of the schools, however, have since been closed. The reports as to
the working of the Education Act continue to be far fi-om favorable, especially
in the case of schools established in rural villages. The school at Sydapett is
particularly noticed as the best managed, and most successful of the Rate
Schook. Its management reflects great credit upon the Commissioners, and
especially upon the Honorary Secretary. The Rate Schools in Malabar and
Canara have generally done well. Their success is due partly to their being above
the class of village schools, and partly to their having as local Commissioners
men of some intelligence.
416. The nxunber of aided colleges and schools rose firom 879, with an
attendance of 35,260 pupils, to 945, with an attendance of
40,525 pupils. The grant-m-aid expenditure for the official year, *«=»•
including scholarships, was Rupees 1,61,193-15-9. Of the aided institutions —
6 were Colleges, with 117 pupils.
19 were Schools of the higher class, with 5,312 „
310 were Schools of the middle class, with 16,888 „
509 were Schools of the lower class, with 13,006 „
97 were Female schools, with 4,624 „

The following observations by the Acting Inspector of Schools of the
1st Division, on the working of the grant-in-aid system, are deserving of
notice : —
" The more the present system of salary grants becomes known, the more it seems to
be appreciated by the people. No doubt the condition of many of the smaller schools is
very unstable, and their permanence a matter of grave doubt, but I think we have advanced
to some, perhaps very, smaU extent, in gaining the confidence of the people, by shewing
them that we have only their advantage at heart. It has been my main desire to arouse
their interest, and secure their confidence and co-operation, and with this view I have
endeavoured to accommodate the present rules as far as possible to the cirqumstances of
each case, without sacrificing their main objects, viz., efficient schools and efficient teachers ;
yet, however desirable it may be that the progress of education should be estimated by
quality not ({uantity, still it has always struck me that the first step is to popularize our
teaching, and when we have gained the sympathy of the people, and familiarized them
with that teaching, allowing it to take hold upon their imagination, we shall then be able
better to organize and systematize, and exact thorough efficiency. Government should
demand a full return for the money given, but that return will be no less full, because it
lingers.**
41 7. It will be seen from the abstract statement given in paragraph 399
Female Education. ^^ *^^ report, that at the closeof the year there were 6,510
girls imder instruction in schools connected with the Educa-
tional Department The munber of girls studying in schools unconnected with
the department is stated to be 4,295, which, however, is exclusive of the num-
ber under instruction in Malabar and South Canara, for which districts no
statistics are stated to be available. Of the whole number of girls, 108 are ^
returned as Europeans, 291 as Eurasians, 2,420 as Native Christians, 1,365 as
Hindus, and twenty-nine as Mahomedans ; for eighty-two the nation or race is

not giyen. The instruction imparted in the schools is ahnost in all cases of a
very elementary character ; and in too many instances it is apprehended that
the teaching is productive of no permanent effect beyond rendering the
pupils better disposed toward female education, and so paving the way for the
instruction of a succeeding generation.
In their Order of the 17th April last, No. 144, the Government in-
structed the Director "to intimate to the several Inspectors and Deputy
Inspectors of Schools that the Crovemment of India attach great importance
to the extension and improvement of female education, and look to them to
take advantage of any openings which may occur for pressing the subject
upon the consideration of enlightened Natives.''
In connexion with this subject, it is to be noticed that upon the applica-
tion of this Government, the Government of India have sanctioned the estab-
lishment of a Normal School for training female teachers at Madras^ the
arrangements for which are now \mder consideration.
The Acting Inspector of Schools in the 1st Division reports that an im-
petus has been given to female education in that division during the year,
owing to the intelligent and liberal interest taken in the matter by the
Maharajah of Vizianagram. The Maharajah has established two schools for
girls, one at Vizianagram and another at Bajahmundry.
418. In the year \mder review the Book Department was re-organized,
and a fresh mode of keeping its accounts was introduced. Y.
Kristnama Chari, an experienced officer of the Educational B«* Department.
Department, who had previously done excellent work as a Deputy Inspector
of Schools, was appointed Curator of Government Books under the new
arrangements. The expenditure on account of the printing, purchase, and
distribution of books in 1867-68 was Rupees 33,030-5-4, exclusive of the
cost of the establishment of the Central Book Dep6t, which amounted to
Rupees 4,636-1-0. The number of English and Vernacular books sold was

419. Three Examinations were held by the Commis-
sioner during the year under review, as follows : —
1. — ^A Modified Special Test Examination in July 1867.
2. — The Special Test Examination in August 1867.
3. — The General Test Examination in February 1868.
Modified Special
Test.
420. The Modified Special Test Examination was the fifth and last of
those instituted by order of Government in 1865, for the
benefit of officials of long standing in the service. It residted
in the success of ten out of nineteen candidates, making in all seventy-five
of the candidates declared eligible for the post of Tahsildar and Sub-
Magistrate.
421. The Special Test Examination included, for the first time, a test for
Pleaders in District Moonsiffs' Courts. Papers were set in the
Law of Evidence and Civil Procedure as for the Lower Grade
of the Judicial Test, and others in Hindu and Mahomedan Law as for the Higher
Grade of that test. Other Special Tests were made applicable to many
appointments which had hitherto been exempt from the operation of the rules ;
and candidates for the higher grade of the Translation Test were required to
pass in two languages instead of one as formerly.
The number of candidates for the Special Test Examination was 2,866, or
1,330 more than in 1866. Of these 876 were candidates for the new test for
P leaders in District Moonsiflfs' Courts. The following table shews the per-

The papers set for the Judicial Tests (I. and II.) were rather harder than
usual, as also were those set for the Revenue Tests (III.) ; the per-centage of
successful candidates was thus somewhat lowered, but the almost universal
failure to pass in Translation (VII. B.) can only be accounted for on the sup-
position that every one who has a smattering of English thinks he can pass,
and that as such superficial knowledge extends, the nimiber of unfit candidates
increases. The average of max ks assigned in this subject was very low. On
thjB other hand, the improvement in the Higher Grade of the Precis-Writing
Test (VIIL A.) is most satisfactory, and shews that a sound knowledge of
English, and habits of thought, qualifications which can only be gauged by
this part of the examination, are gaining groimd.

examined. Of these 732 passed, or only twenty-three per
cent., against thirty-four per cent, in the previous year. The failures, as might
be expected, were chiefly in Grammar and Composition and Arithmetic. The
number registered and examined was greater than in any former year, but the
per-centage of success waa lower than it has ever been except in 1865. The

ation in hand-writing, spelling, and dictation, and partly to the increasing eager*
ness which is shewn to use this examination, not only as a key to the Uncove-
nanted Service, but as a touch-stone of ordinary education. With the increas-
ing numbers which present themselves every year, there is an increasing pro-
portion of youths whose mere smattering of knowledge gives but little phance
of passing, but this is an evil which will be diminished by time and the pro-
gress of education, whilst th^ advantage isfhicl^ the institution presents of

431. The Bishop continued his visitation in the early part of 1868. He
visited Trichinopoly, Tanjore, Negapatam, Tranquebar, and the
principal Mission Stations in that part of the diocese.
432. The Station of Kumool has been constituted a Chaplaincy. The
Joint Chaplaincies of Black Town and of Secunderabad have
each been divided into two separate Chaplains' Stations. ewcu^
433. The district of Lovedale, in which the Lawrence Asylum is situated,
has been separated from the Station of Ootacamund for Eccle-

A Clergyman has been appointed to the charge of the Railway Stations
from Salem to Arconum. But hitherto he has not been able to find a residence

A sum of money, amounting to £1,870, has been promised by shareholders
in the Madras Railway Company to provide a Chaplain for the Stations on their
line. Steps have been taken, in consequence, to procure a Clergyman from

438. There has been no general outbreak of cholera. The disease has
appeared, from time to time, in different parts of the coimtry,
but has nowhere prevailed to any great extent, or in a very
severe form. In April, May, and June, there was an outbreak of a mild type
in the Kumool district ; in July, August, and September, the disease appeared
in South Arcot ; it was epidemic in the neighbotfrhood of Negapatam in Jime
and July ; and in the Salem district an outbreak occurred in January and
February, which at first seemed so alarming that extra medical aid was sent
from Madras at the Collector's request. The disease, however, proved most
unusually amenable to treatment, and the death-rate was remarkably low.
In some other districts a few cases are reported, but the disease does not appear
to have assumed the epidemic form.
439. Malarious fevers have been frequent in some of the Northern
districts, specially Rajahmundry and Nellore ; also in the Bel-
lary GoUectorate ; in the Kumool district, and throughout the ^"^ *'"^
whole of South Canara. In the early months of the present year they prevailed,
to some extent, in the neighbourhood of Pulicat, and in the North Arcot District.

parts of the country ; most severely in the Malabar district.

This number is a little in excess of the decrease reported last year, and
shews that that decrease Was due to temporary (biases ; probably, in great part,
to the widespread distress and sickness prevalent throughout the country
having prostrated muoj of those who would othdrwisd hat# resortee( to the
Dispensaries for relief.

ifr very &r from counterbalancing the large decrease oi 6,#80, in the p^vkms*

Small-pox has been very generally prevalent throughout the entire
Presidency during the year, but more so m the last quarter of the official (first
quarter of present) year. The mortality from the disease throughout the
Presidency is not known, but judgmg from the deaths in the Presidency town,
it must have been very great. SmaU-pox appears to be now declming in the
Presidency town.
The whole Vaccine Department has worked steadily and well durmg the

BMIGBATION.
450. No emigration to any British Colony has been carried on during
the paat year, the Colonists not having sufficiently recovered from their finan.
cial difficulties, consequent on bad seasons and the numerous faUures m England
and elsewhere. Natal and the Mauritius, however, keep up their Agents, with
the mtention of shortly recommencmg operations ; and the latter Colony in
February, despatched orders to resume them, but it transpired that the fever,
which prevailed with such fatal eflfects there last year, had broken out agam!
It was, therefore, absolutely necessary to suspend emigration to that Colony, till
its sanitary condition had improved.
With reference to this fever, which was at one time supposed to be closely
allied to the Yellow Fever, a vessel named the " Hindoostan," returning from
the Mauritius with time-expired Emigrants for Madras and Calcutta, arrived
here in June 1867, and was placed in quarantine at Ennore, where the Madras
passengers were landed and kept in camp, under medical inspection, for a few
days, when no disease of consequence appearing among them, they were allowed
to disperse.
The " Earl Russel," and " AUum Ghur," which arrived from the same Colony,
were also placed in quarantine.
The entire number that returned from the Mauritius, during the year
under review, was 243 souls in three ships, to which may be added 206 who
engaged their passage to Pondicherry in a French ship, hoping probably (as was
really the case) to escape thereby the quarantine anticipated at Madras.
Two vessels have brought forty-three invahd and other emigrants from
Natal
No recruiting has taken place under Act V of 1 866, the Indian Labor Act.
The Officer in charge of the Upper Godavery had the intention of recruiting
2,000 laborers at Madras, with a view to the rapid prosecution of the works :
an Agent was sent to Madras to commence operations ; but when he found that
the Labor Act applied to the case, the project was abandoned.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Suction XIL— MISCELLANEOUS. 129
45 L Only three ships have left Pondicherry and Karikal during the year,
carrying 884 souls from the first named settlement, and 542 prench Emigra-
from the last, making in all 1,426. Two vessels were bound *^'^''-
to Guadaloupe, and one to Martinique.
Trading interests were in too depressed a state at Reunion for her Colo-
nists to call for further labor. They indeed at one time refused to receive the
emigrants sent to them, and many left that Colony for the Mauritius.
No emigrants have returned from the French Antilles, but Reunion has
sent back 482 to Pondicherry. The French ship " Marie," also brought to
Pondicherry, from the Mauritius, 206 return emigrants, who, however, came over
as private passengers, paying for themselves.
Serious complaints having been made by the British Consul at Reunion of
the emigrants ha^dng been robbed of their advances before leaving Pondicherry
and Karikal, an order was issued by the Madras Govei:nment, that no advance
shall be made prior to embarkation. The French authorities at Pondicherry
remonstrated against this order, as being likely entiirely to check emigration to
the French Colonies. This order was subsequently withdrawn. The Consular
Agents have been instructed to take additional precautions with the assistance
orthe French emigration Agents for the control of the Emigration MaistWes and
the protection of the coolies.
Few complaints have been made against the French recruiters, licensed or
imlicensed, during the year ; but there is ilo doubt that the law is constantly
evaded by persons being surreptitiously induced to leave their homes for the
purpose of emigrating, without being registered by a Magistrate. It is very
difficult to bring the offence home, and only two men have been convicted dur-
ing the year, and sentenced to hard labor for three months. They were
unlicensed, and had enticed from Madras a young woman, whom they robbed of
her jewels on the roac^ and after leaving her in the dep6t at Pondicherry,
robbed her of the three months' advance she there received.
MUNICIPAL COMMISSIONS.
Madras.
452. The Municipal Commission has been extensively altered during the
year. From the 1st November 1867, Act IX of 1867 of the Madras Government
came into operation, by which the Town of Madras was divided into eight
Districts, from each of which four persons are appointed Conmiissioners, the
President of the Commission being also appointed by Government, but being a
paid officer. The former arrangement was that there were three paid Com-
missioners, and none unpaid. The two paid Commissioners were provided with
employment on the new Commission establishment, the President remaining
unchanged. The effects of the change had, of course, been little felt before the
close of the year^ when the Mimicipal report is made up.
The receipts of the year were Rupees 5,50,259-10-1 1 or Rupees 62,708-1 1-3
in ezoeiss of the income of 1866. It was mainly derived from the house and

There is some difference between these distances and the distances given in

455. Parties have been employed on the line, Hyderabad to Bezwarah,
during nine months of the year, and the line was finished only
°^ at the end of last month. The alignment has been greatly
improved : iron standards have been erected in place of the wooden posts, a
second wire for the Kumool line has been suspended, on the Bezwarah line
posts, for seventeen and a half miles (between Ambareepett and Hyderabad),
and a third wire for the Nagpoor line for four and a half miles (between Secun-
derabad and Hyderabad), and the whole line has been fitted with brackets and
insulators, caps, lightning spikes, and earth wires. This line is now in excel-

458. In the fifth Sub-division nothing has been done beyond making
petty repairs, and obtaining a trustworthy report on the state
and requirements of the line. Mr. Assistant Superintendent **'
Hervey, who held charge of the Sub-division up to 16th July last, submitted two
or three estimates for the re-construction of the line ; but they contained so
Uttle reliable information, that it was considered advisable to have the line
inspected closely by a superior officer before making any arrangement for its
re-construction. Mr. Officiating Superintendent T. Blissett (who held charge
of the Division for two months, during Mr. Bailey's absence on leave,) made a
thorough inspection in September last, and his report led to the consideration
whether it would not be advisable to take a new line from Negapatam to Paum-
ben, viA Trichinopoly, Madura, and Ramnad, doing away with the coast line
altogether, and orders were received to defer arrangements for the re-construc-
tion of the coast line till further orders. The proposed new route was inspected
by the Superintendent in January and February last, and his report, dated
12th February, wiU, it is believed, decide the question. The route proposed
is nearly 100 miles longer than the one now followed, but it is better adapted
in every respect for a Telegraph line, and has two large stations (Trichinopoly
and Madura), in which offices may be opened with profit to the department.
The present line is in a weak state, but may be kept up till the beginning of
next year with some slight repairs.
459. There have been thirty-nine cases of total stoppage, and twelve of
imperfect communication, a great improvement on the last
^^ IntormptioM.
460. No complaint of any consequence has been made, directly or indirect-
ly, in the Division during the year, and the total of fines for
errors, &c., in messages is less than for the eleven months ^
ended 31st March 1867, being only 135, amounting to Rupees 127-14-0, against
176, amounting to Rupees 134-5-0.
461. A Telegraph class, under an experienced Telegraph Master, for the
instruction of orphan boys from the diflFerent charitable insti-
^ "^ Telegraph cUtfs in
tutions in Madras, was opened in the Male Orphan Asylum Madras.
in December last, but it has not yet been long enough at work to furnish
reliable results. The Principal of the Asylum takes great interest in the class,
and as far as can be seen at present there is every prospect of its fulfilling the
purpose for which it has been established.
OBSBBVATOBY.
462. For some time the question of the abolition or continuance of this
institution has beenimder the consideration of the Home Government. It has
now been settled that the Observatory shall be continued in its present condition
long as the Astronomer, Mr. Pogson, retains his connexion with it.

Section Wl.— MISCELLANEOUS,
Owing to the KnaUneflsof the staff of the mstttutioii, whidi the As^no-
mer has allowed to diminmh as yacancks ooeurred, in the hope of obtaining
European aid, which has not yet been sanctioned by the Secretary of State, th«
scientific results have accumulated, unpublished, to a considerable extent
Observing is now to be suspended with a view to the publication of the reccmls
«f observations which extend over a period of six years.
463. The Meridian Circle is in perfect order. The two Equatoreals, the
large new one by Troughton and Simms, erected in 1866, and
the smaller one by Lerebours and Secretan, in use since 1850,
ere both in efficient observing condition. There are abo six other available
Telescopes, viz., a portable five-foot Equatoreal, by Dollond ; a handy firee Teles-
cope of the same size, with ordinary altitude and azimuth motion, the object
glass of which formerly belonged to the old transit instrument ; a small but
very fine universal Equatoreal, with two thirty-inch Telescopes; and two others,
also by Dollond, of forty-two inches focal length, formerly much used for obser-
vations of occultations, phenomena of Jupiter's satellites, and similar casual
wants.
Inftmmentf.
464. The Meridional observations have been carried on with more than
LftboareofOiepait ^^^ activity, their number during the official year being
^^^^ 2,636, or 225 above the average; and realizing a total of
14,465 complete but unpublished observations, made with the new Transit Circle,
between June 1st, 1862, and March 31st, 1868. The moon was observed on
4Bixty-two nights ; and sixty-five meridian positions of twenty-one of the minor
planets were also obtained. The reductions are never long behind, rarely three
months in arrears ; so that simple arrangement of the Star Catalogues, and
examination and rectification of the discrepancies are alone required to prepare
for press.
Arranged by calendar years, and remembering that the records of 1862
were for seven months only, the synopsis of meridian circle observations await-
ing publication is as follows : —

The subjects of observation with the Equatoreals have been, as in each
Quccessive year, such as were considered best suited to the geographical position
of the Observatory, and least likely to be imdertaken elsewhere. The vari4Me

Star Atlas has been advanced as much as possible, and the usual search for new
celestial objects has been maintained, though this year without success. Thirty*
six observations of nine minor planets, and seven of the second comet of 1867,
have also been taken, but time has not permitted their reduction. The planet
Sylvia, discovered in May 1866, was re-foimd, and observed at her next opposi-
tion in September 1867, by means of the excellent elements and ephemerig
calcuh^ted by Prof. C. A. F. Peters, Director of the Altona Observatory.

having been aflforded from England that the indent for the requi-
site machinery would be complied with, it is hoped that the regular discharge of
the noon and 8 p. m. guns, at Fort St. George and St. Thomas's Mount, as well
as the establishment of three public electrical clocks in Madras, will ere long bQ

rain gauge rim, to make it correspond to the glass supplied. The consequence
has been the delay of the intended fresh issue of rain gauges throughout the
Presidency
MBTBOBOLOGICAIi.
467. The establishment of sixteen Meteorological stations, fairly distri-
buted over the Madras Presidency, including the Observatory Meteorological Sta-
as head-quarters, was mentioned in the last Report as having ^°"*
been duly sanctioned by Government, and then under preparation. Many
difficulties necessarily attend the starting of any widespread scientific scheme,
and as, in this instance, all the instruments required careful selection and com-
parison with the Madras standards, sheds had to be constructed and despatched,
and many appliances, peculiar to tropical meteorology, had to be designed on the
spot, much progress was not made in the first year. Eleven of the stations have,
however, been provisionally started since November, and the instruments for
the remaining seven are ready.
468. The excellent tables of Hourly Corrections, deduced by Mr. J. Glashier
from the Records of the Royal Observatory at Greenwich, Tables of Correc
afford to English observers a ready means of computing their ***"*^
daily and monthly mean values of atmospheric pressure, temperature, hygro-
fiaetry, <bc., but as such corrections depend, for the most part, upon the sun's
rising, setting, and altitude at the different hours of the day, and seasons of
the year, they could not, under any circumstances, be employ^ for tropical
regions. The Madras hourly observations taken during the twenty years,
1841 to 1860, ha^ therefore^ to be completely discussed, and Tropical Hourly

Correction tables to be deduced, and this long and heavy work, in hand for many
months past, has at last been completed. The tables are now passing through
the press, and immediately that the observers employed have been sufficiently
instructed as to their application, past and current results will be available for
publication, and will, it is hoped, be found of material value, alike for sanitary,
medical, and engineering enquiries.
469. The main feature of the new Meteorological establishment wiU be,
w -X-. * ^ *^** ^ *^® results obtained at each station will be strictly
Isstramtnti nsecl. 1 1 . ,
comparable with each other, and with those of the Kew Obser-
vatory. Every barometer, thermometer, and anemometer in use will have been
carefully examined and corrected, and nothing taken on trust or with the
maker's corrections. A plan of the thermometer shed supplied to each station
is appended ^hereto. The instruments supplied are by first cliass English makers,
either Messrs. Negretti^and Zambra, or Mr. Browning. Repairs of the numer-
ous damages incurred on the "passage out as well as the construction of a num-
ber of anemometers, pzone cages, and of the observing sheds issued, and the
general packing arrangements, have been ably executed by Mr. F. Doderet, the
Mathematical Instrument-maker of the PubUc Works Department, without
whose valuable aid the scheme must have been greatly delayed.
470. The observer at each station is under the immediate charge of the
local Medical Officer. The general superintendence of the
whole scheme rests with the Government Astronomer, to whom
the reduced registers are to be transmitted half-monthly, and by whom the pub-
lication of the whole has to be effected.
471. The thermometers at the Madras Observatory have hitherto been
Arranffemont of ^^oorded in a verandah facing the north, but too much shielded
^'*"*'^^®'***^ on all other sides by surrounding walls and buildings. Since
January 1st, however, a fresh set has been employed, placed in an open shed,
under precisely similar conditions to those at all the new up-country stations,
the verandah readings still being continued, so as to shew any diflference due
to the change of position. The stations at which observations are now being
regularly made are Bangalore, Bellary, Cochin, Coimbatore, Kumool, Madras,
Madura, Salem, Secunderabad, and Trichinopoly. The eight about to be started
are Cannanore, Eamptee Masulipatam, Negapatam, Rangoon, Tinnevelly, Yiza-
gapatam, and Wellington.

472. The total number of specimens added to the collection dining the
past year was 7,084, of which the following are the most important.
473. Forty-six examples of the birds of North America, from the Smiths
sonian Institution, Washington ; 582 specimens of the birds
of the Neilgherries, collected by the Head TaxidemuBt.^

Section \\\,—M ISC ELLA XEO US. 1 37
These include about sixty species ; about the same number of species are still
wanting, and it is hoped that most of them will be obtained during the present
year. Fifteen examples of the birds of Madras were contributed by Mr. J. M.
Mitchell, and thirty-eight birds were purchased.
A set of casts of the bones of the Dodo was received from tie Derby
Museum, LiverpooL
474 Four snakes were contributed by lady Napier, ten by Major R. H.
Beddome, and sixteen were obtained by the Taxidermist on
the Neilgherries and on the slopes of the Hills — he also
procured eighteen lizards of various kinds.
475. One hundred and twelve fish were obtained by the Head Taxidermist
from the Neilgherry streams, of which four were stuffed, and
the remainder preserved in spirit.
Two stuffed salmon were received from the Derby Museum, Liverpool, and
twenty-four fish were purchased at Madras.
476. 3,193 shells, chiefly marine, were contributed by Mrs. Sherman ;
Major R. H. Beddome added 835 land and fresh water shells
to the collection, and thirty-five were obtained on the Neil-
gherries by the Taxidermist.
477. Mrs. Sherman also contributed 246 insects, and the Taxidermist
obtained 652 on the Neilgherries. insects.
478. A very fine example of the Hyalonema Japonica was presented by
Lieutenant-Colonel R. G. H. Grant of the Horse Artillery. Sponges.
479. A skeleton of Aquila fulvescens has been set up, and skeletons of a
Bustard, a Hare, and a Tiger are in hand. The skeleton of
an Elephant has been delayed in consequence of the absence
of the Head Taxidermist at the Neilgherries.
480. 437 specimens have been added to the Herbarium, and fifty-four
specimens of woods were also received from the Forest depart- nerbanum dnd

ExtracUfrom the Administration; HepoH of the Acting Inspector General of
Police, for 1867-68.
Para. 27. Offences. — * * * By far the largest number of oflfences are
reported in the Central and Southern Ranges, the former greatly predominating.
The Western Range shews the highest averages of detective results at all points,
and Madras Town the lowest, save in the item of recovery of property. In the
results of particular crimes of the gravest kind there are very great differences
as will afterwards be shewn.
28. Murder. — 222 Murders were reported during the year, of which 109,
or forty-nine per cent, were prosecuted to conviction. In five cases, returned
as imdetected, the murderers committed suicide, and in four cases in Coim-
batore mothers jumped into wells with their children in their arms. Including
these cases the ratio of detection would be 53 1 per cent. The Western
Range shews the best average of detection in murder cases, viz., 62*9 per
cent. Local causes facilitate detection on the Western Coast The Southern
Range shews the next best average in this class of crime, 56*2 per cent. On
th6 whole, detection of murder has improved during 1867. Only 38*1 of persons
arrested have been convicted, which is a poor average. In rural parts, evidence
is frequently withheld by persons well cognizant of the facts, so that persons
arrested on the strongest suspicion sometimes escape. The proportion of con-
victions to every 100 offences, however, is eighty-one, which is better than the
English average, and a considerable improvement on former years. Taking
results by districts, it will be foimd that North Malabar has an entirely clean
sheet of miurder in 1867 — ^a very rare occurrence. South Malabar has sixteen
murders, the whole of which were detected. In no single case did the mur-
derers escape punishment. Twenty-three persons were arrested, of whom
twenty-two were brought to trial and twenty-one were convicted. The open
manner in which miu"ders are frequently committed in Malabar of com'se con-
tributes greatly to these results, but still they are highly creditable. If certainty
of detection could prevent miurder, then it should now cease in Malabar.
Coimbatore has sixteen cases, of which nine were detected. In four cases
women threw themselves into wells with their children. Deducting these four
from the total of sixteen, Coimbatore has detected seventy-five per cent, of cases
in which conviction was possible. This district distinguishes itself by detective
results in almost all descriptions of grave crime, and it is perhaps worthy of
remark, that in no district is there so small a proportion of Natives of the District
serving in the Police force. A large number of men are drawn from other
parts of the country. Godavery and Trichinopoly Districts also shew a high
per-centage of detection in miu"der cases. One case in Trichinopoly was that of
Serjeant Dalton, a man of previously irreproachable character, who openly mur-

dered his wife one Sunday, under circumstances of great brutality. He was con-
victed before the High Court at Madras, and sentenced to penal servitude for life,
instead of hanging, owing to some doubt as to the exact state of his mind when
he battered his wife's brains out m his children's presence. Tmnevelly, too,
shews well in murder cases. Detection in Kumool is poor, only twenty-nine per
cent. The only Districts which'shew really hdd results are Bellary and Kistna.
In the former only one case out of twelve has been detected, and in the latter
only two cases out of thirteen. Even the Southern Range, so poor in general
detection, retrieves its character in Murder, Culpable Homicide, and Drugging
cases. Five murders were committed in Madras City, of which only two are
shewn as detected, but in a third case the murderer being found to be insane
was merely produced before the High Court, and transferred without trial to
the Lunatic Asylimi. Fifty per cent, of cases may, therefore, be said to have been
detected by the Madras City Pohce. In one of these cases, a high caste youth
of nineteen, from Northern India, named Baladeen, was decoyed at the dead of
night into a deserted choultry, in an unfi^uented cocoanut grove, and there
drugged, strangle, and buried, for the sake of his gold bangles. For sometime
nothing was known save that the youth had suddenly disappeared. Finally,
the Police traced out the case under circumstances of great difficulty. Five
persons were brought to trial before the High Court for this o£fence. Three
(including a Brahmin devotee) were convicted and hanged ; one was made
Queen's Evidence, though he confessed but httle ; the fifth, a woman. Ram
Bhoye, wife of one of the convicted prisoners, the paramour of the youthful
victim, and herself the arch contriver of this diaboUcal murder, escaped through
a missing link of evidence. Throughout she maintained a demeanour of calm
and conscious innocence, but after witnessing the execution of her husband and
friends, she quietly told the Police that the five persons brought to trial were
the real murderers, but that the worst of the lot had been allowed to escape.
Equal in genius and daring to Mrs. Manning, Ram Bhoye was more fortunate
in her fate. Chief Constable Roop Ram distinguished himself by great detec-
tive abiUty in this c^se. All the persons concerned, save one, were Natives of
Northern India, though long settled in Madras.
29. Culpable Homicide. — Under the head of Culpable Homicide, 61*2 per
cent, of cases were detected, and 56*5 per cent, of persons arrested, were
convicted. The Southern Range was most successfrd in detecting this class
of cases, reaching the high average of 76*1 per cent. The Western Range
comes next. In a large nimiber of Culpable Homicide cases, the dying per-
son's statement is available. Taking Murder and Culpable Homicide com-
bined, 52*3 per cent, of cases were detected, forty-three per cent, of persons
arrested were convicted, and ninety-seven per cent, of convictions were obtained
to every 100 offences. These rates shew considerable improvement on results
in former years.

30. Offence$ against property vnUi violence. — Under the head of offences
agamst property with violence, there has been the highly satisfactory decrease
of 25*4 per cent. Excluding Madras Town, (not previously entered in the
Returns) there were only 8,277 of these grave descriptions of offence against
11,1 02 in 1866. And there has been a decrease of 194 per cent, as compared
with the average of three years antecedent to the year of scarcity. The per-
centage of detection has, however, fsdlen from 27*8 in 1866 to 21*3 in the present
year. Only 49*3 per cent, of persons arrested have been convicted, against
60*9 per cent, in the previous year, and 13*2 per cent, of property has been
recovered against 15*5 percent, in 1866. Thus, notwithstanding decrease of
crime, there has been a slight falling off" in detection, as compared with the
year preceding, though the average of four years past has been exceeded.
Rupees 6,85,646 of property were lost, against Rupees 6,40,313 in 1866. The
decrease of crime has been common to all Ranges save the Southern, where
there has been a slight increase. At the same time the per-centage of detec-
tion in the Southern Range has fallen from nineteen in 1866, to the very low
ratio of 15*4, which is much to be lamented. The per-centage of property
♦ recovered is also far lower than in any other range. The Western Range has
again the highest average of detection, and Madras Town the highest averages
of conviction and of recovery of property. Thirty-one per cent of property lost
has been recovered by the Madras Town Police, which is a very creditable ratio.
31. Dacoities, — The number of dacoities has fallen from 1,025 to 533,
a decrease of forty-eight per cent., or very nearly one-half. In 1865, the
year before the famine, the number was 658. Analysis shews that, out
of a total of 533, 145 were committed in houses, 212 in fields or jungles,
and 176 on highways and thoroughfares. The per-centages of detection
are 31*7, 25*4, and 17 respectively, so that highway dacoity would seem
the most difficult of detection. Four persons on an average were convicted in
each case of dacoity successfully prosecuted. The average of property lost in
each dacoity was 187 Rupees. Exdusive of torchlight gang robbery, the
average loss was Rupees 119. In the great majority of dacoities the amount
lost is trifling, but a few heavy cases swell the average. In forty-four cases
only did the amoimt of property lost exceed Rupees 500. In 55*9 per cent, of
the cases, the amoimt lost was imder Rupees 50. The number of dacoities in
Bellary has fallen from 355 in 1866, to seventy in 1867, a result which strikingly
illustrates the effect of prices upon crime. The numerous convictions in 1866
would also have a great effect In the year before the famme, there were 104
dacoities in BeUary. Even Madras City shews one dacoity, due to the wide
embracing definition of the Penal Code, and not to the actual presence of dacoits
in Madras. It was a drunken row in a highway, committed by more than four
persons, in which some property changed hands. Two persons were convicted
and sentenced to two years' imprisonment. No single district shews a clean

sheet of this oflFence, but the Northern Ciroars and the Districts of the Western
Coast have the lightest score. Nellore, too, shews only eight, Madras District
nine, and Tinnevelly nine. Even Kumool, with its wild mountain passes,
shews but fifteen dacoities, while South Arcot, ever fiiiitful in crime, heads the
Hst with seventy-two. Madura is the only district in which there has been an
actual increase this year, the number being sixty-one against thirty-four in
1866, an increase of 44*2 per cent. The district has been subject to the dis-
advantage of frequent change of officers, but is now being thoroughly worked
up. The detection of dacoity has slightly improved from 23*5 in 1866, to 24*3
in 1867. Here Bellary fails most utterly and lamentably, having detected only
three cases out of seventy (4*2 per cent.) This is a sad falling off, even from the
sufficiently miserable per-centage of 13*8 last year. In Cuddapah, the detection
of dacoity is almost equally miserable. Only three have been detected out of
forty-seven, or 6*4 per cent. These figures are a disgrace to the criminal
statistics. Canara has detected three out of four cases, or seventy-five per cent.
In Ganjam and Vizagapatam, fifty per cent, of the small niunber of cases have
been detected. In Coimbatore, out of forty-six cases, twenty-one, ^r 457, have
been detected. This district therefore, on the whole, stands at the head of
detection in dacoity.
32. Robberies, — There have been 812 robberies against 1,124 in 1866.
The Analysis shews that 134 occurred in towns, 419 in fields and jungles,
and 259 on highways. Here again the per-centage of detection is least
in highway robbery; though there is but little difierence between the classes.
24*1 per cent, of all robberies were detected, and an average of about two
persons were sentenced in each convicted case of robbery. The average of
property lost in each case was 42 J Rupees. The amount exceeded Rupees 500
in six cases only, and in 83*5 per cent, of the whole cases, the amount of pro-
perty lost was below 50 Rupees. BeUary stQl heads the list with 132 rob-
beries, but the decrease from last year is 41 '3 per cent. In detection of robbery
Bellary has struggled nearly up to the general average, shewing 20*5 per cent.
of cases detected. South Arcot comes next in the number of robberies, shew-
ing ninety-nine, of which twenty-two, or 22*2 per cent, were detected. This
is a great improvement on the miserable detection in this district last year
(12*7 per cent.), though still below the general average. Madras City shews
six robberies on highways, of which only one was detected. Madras District
shews only seven, of which four (fifty-seven per cent.) were detected. Salem has
detected twenty-three robberies out of fifty-nine, or thirty-nine per cent, of its
cases.
33. Torchlight Gang Robbery. — There have been only sixty-five torchlight
robberies in 1867, against an annual average of 165 for four years past.
The present year shews the lowest record of this hideous crime ever yet
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Ixxx Appendix W— JUDICIAL,
exhibited in the Police annals of the Madras Presidency. Rut>ees 44,090 have
been plundered against an annual average of Rupees 68,227, a striking decrease
of 30-2 per cent, whOe the recovery of property has risen to 25*3 per cent
from the previous very poor annual average of 6*4 per cent These improved
results are very satisflEUstory. In Kistna District the high aven^ of sixty-Beven
per cent was recovered, and in North Arcot 41*8 per cent The average of pro-
perty plundered was 678 Rupees per case. Here again a few heavy cases swell
the average. The majority of gang robberies now-a-days are but paltry attempts
at plunder, con^pared with the bold and successful midnight raids of bygone
years. One case, resembling the old type, occurred at Greenspett, a suburb of
Chittoor, the Zillah station of North Arcot A large gang attacked the house
of a goldsmith, but being disturbed by a Beat Constable, fled with 8,000 Rupees
worth of property. The crime was subsequently brought home to a gang of
professional thieves, residing and cultivating land in the Madras District, who
were successfully prosecuted to conviction. 6,000 Rupees worth of property
was recovered by the Police in this case. The credit of detection belongs
mainly to Inspector Ali Dost, of the Madras District, a first class Police officer.
The per-centage of detection in gang robbery was 277, which shews no improve-
ment on former years. In 1866, 29*9 per cent of cases were detected. 28*4 per
cent of persons arrested were convicted, a slight advance on the average of the
four previous years. From the nature of the crime, a laige number of persons
are frequently arrested on reasonable grounds of suspicion, against many of
whom it is difficult to bring home individual proo£ Nearly seven persons on
an average were convicted in each case successfully prosecuted in a Sessions
Court BeUary shews only eight cases of torchlight robbery, against sixty-six
in 1866, but not one single case could the Bellary Police force succeed in
detecting. Cuddapah, formerly the favorite home of gang robbers, shews only
three cases, not one of which, however, was detected. The educated force in
Madras District has not succeeded in detecting a single case out of six scored
against them. Madura also has three cases, and no detection. In North Arcot
there were seven cases, of which six were detected in 1867, and the seventh,
(the Greenspett case,) has been successfully prosecuted to conviction in the cur-
rent year. Thus North Arcot has detected the whole of its cases, a result
which is highly creditable to the Police force in that District. Gang robbery
proved a crime very difficult to grapple with in North Arcot, where the local
robbers are cimning and clever, and drawn from various classes of society. But
during the last few years there has been a marked and progressive decrease of
torchlight robbery.

This speaks well for the persistent efforts of the Police in the face of great
difficulties. There has been a slight increase of gang robbery in Kistna, Madras,
South Arcot, Trichinppoly, and Madura Districts. The following districts are
quite free from this crime : —
Madras Town. Godavery. Canara.
Ganjam. Kumool. Nellore,
VizagapataftL Malabar.
Nellore is infested with wandering gangs of Yerkulas, and torchlight rob-
beries were once rife in this district. The close vigilance of the Police, under
the superintendence of able officers, has succeeded in effectually controlling
these gangs, and in eradicating this phase of crime. In the Ceded Districts
also, once so notorious for organized bands of robbers, comparative peace has
fallen on the land. The more civilized provinces of South Arcot and Trichino-
poly now head the list of gang robbery. Here the crime is still probably fos-
tered by persons of higher class, and more subtle device. It has sometimes
been asserted that the dacoits and criminal tribes of the Upper and Central
Provinces make their way even into the far South, and there commit their
favourite crime of dacoity with an impunity from detection, which requires the
interference of a special agency. If so, then these bold and far-reaching
marauders confine their exploits now-a-days to very insignificant enterprises.
But it is not true. The records of conviction, and all the circumstances of this
crime in the Madras Presidency, prove that it is purely home-made. And it is
gradually but surely being trampled out by the District Police, each on their
own groimd, without the aid of any special agency.
34. HcfoseAyreahing cases. — There has been a large decrease of 21 '2 per
cent, in the total number of house-breaking cases during the year, as com-
pared with 1866. In the Southern Range, however, a slight increase appears,
20*9 per cent, of cases were detected, 58*3 of persons arrested were convicted,
and 12*4» per cent, of property lost has been recovered. On all these points
there is a slight falling off from last year, which is much to be regretted,
although the results far exceed the average of three years previous to 1866.
The Southern Range, as usual, shews worst at all points. Although the number
of cases reported is less than in the Central Range, yet only the miserable per-
centage of 13'3 has been detected, while only 6'6 per cent, of property has
been recovered. These results are very melancholy, and materially affect the
general average for the whole Presidency. Last in the rank comes South
Arcot District, shewing 107 per cent, only of cases detected. Tanjore and
Trichinopoly (also of the Southern Range) struggle barely ahead with 11*9 per
cent, of detection, and neck-ar^-neck with them comes Kistna District, of the
Northern Range, shewing also only 11*9 per cent, of detection. Why Kistna
District should shew this low per-centageof detection, when Nellore, immediately
south, shews 22*8 per cent., and Godavery, immediately north, shews 18*6
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Ixxxii Appendix IL— JUDICIAL
per cent., it is hard to say, except that the efforts of the Police must be more
slack. In the Southern Range, Tinnevelly makes the nearest approach to a,
respectable average, with IT'S per cent, of cases detected. Madura shews
16' per cent. So that, with the exception of Kistna in the Ncwiihem Range, and
Kumool in the Central Range (17*1 per cent.), which just equals Tinnevelly,
the districts of the Southern Range are separately and collectively the worst in
the Presidency for detection of house-breaking. This crime is of comparatively
rare occurrence in the Western Range, probably because the buildings are
stronger, and the inmates, if roused, rather troublesome customers. The per-
centage of detection is also best in this Range, standing at 36 '3 per cent
Canara District comes in first of the whole Presidency, with 44*4 per cent,
detected, out of thirty-six cases only reported. Ganjam comes next, with 41-5
per cent, detected out of 416 cases. The remaining four Districts of the Western
Range come next in order. Then follow Yizagapatam, Nellore, Madras, and
Bellary. Madras Town, which with its strongly organised city Police, might
have been expected to be the winner, cuts but a poor figure, with 21*3 per cent
only of detection. The Western and Northern Ranges have convicted 64*5 per
cent., and 60*9 per cent, respectively of persons arrested. The Central and
Southern Ranges are equal with fifty-four per cent. each. Tn the Western Range
17*1 per cent, of property lost has been recovered. The per-centages of
recovery in the other Ranges are too poor to be quoted. On examining the
nimiber of cases reported, the effects of the famine of 1866 upon Ganjam
District will again be obvious, the figures having fallen from 1,161 in 1866, to
416 only in 1867, while in Bellary there have been but 418 cases, against 732
in the previous year. The total number of cases has decreased in all districts
save South Arcot, Tanjore, Madura, and Tinnevelly, of the Southern Range^
which shew an increase not to be surprised at when detection is so poor.
Madras Town has 211 cases, against 117 only in the previous year of excep-
tional scarcity and crime, but this apparent increase has been caused by the
operation of Act VIII of 1867, under which all house-breaking cases are tried
according to the Penal Code, whereas, formerly, all petty house-breakings were
conveniently merged into the English definition of larceny.
35. House-breaking in Tovms, — Looking to the operations of the Police
in towns only, as compared with rural parts, it will be found that 29*3 per
cent, of cases have been detected, against 19*4 per cent, in villages. The
Northern Range stands highest, with fifty-four per cent, of detection, and the
Western Range comes next. Even in towns the Southern Range can only
detect 19*7 per cent, of its cases. Among Districts, South Malabar stands
highest, with 83*3 per cent, of cases detected, ©anjam and Vizagapatam come
next, with seventy and 63*6 per cent. The Town Police in Nellore and North
Arcot shew good detective results. Kistna District, too, so poor in general
detection under this head, has detected 47*8 per cent of its town cases.

Appendix II. — JUDICIAL, Ixxxiii
The detection in Madras City is below that of the towns in any rural district,
save South Arcot, Tanjore, and Trichinopoly (the last most wretched). This
may partly be accounted for by local peculiarities, such as the large assemblage
of loose characters bent upon prey, and the practice of leaving the numerous
small bazaars totally improtected at night, save by the flimsiest tatty doors and
the most ridiculous padlocks. The padlock is picked, a handful of curry-stuff
is stolen, and a fresh house-breaking is added to the list. In the per-centage of
persons convicted, the Northern Range stands highest, with 91*3 per cent., (a
highly creditable average,) and the Central Range lowest, with 59-8 per cent.
Here again the working of the Towns Police in many districts contrasts
favorably with that of the Madras City Police. In the recovery of property,
North Malabar comes first, with sixty seven per cent. Yizagapatam comes next,
with 44*8 per cent., and Kistna takes a forward place, with 38*2 per cent, of
property recovered. Madras City has recovered thirty-one per cent. Bellary
shews very creditably. The per-centages of recovery in the Southern Range are
not fit to be looked at.
36. AmourU of property lost in HouieAyreaking cases, — The average amount
of property lost in each case of house-breaking was 67 Rupees. In 134 cases
only, out of 6,650, did the amoimt lost exceed Rupees 500, in 75*3 per cent,
of the whole the amount was less than 50 Rupees, and in no less than 1,392
cases the amount lost was under one rupee.
37. General remarks on House^eahtng, — The results under this head of
crime have been analysed at some length, because as the more violent and, so to
say, interesting crimes of dacoity and robbery are repressed, the crime of
house-breaking becomes of great importance, as being the chief field for the
depredations of the criminal classes, and consequently demanding the keenest
energies of the Police. As yet they cannot be said to have shewn satisfactory
results in dealing with this phase of crime. Accustomed to the higher zest of
gang and highway robbery, their palate is dull as yet to the flavour of house-
breaking. Great effort is, therefore, needed to stimulate them to the necessary
pitch of activity, and in the Southern Range, and in the Kistna District parti-
cularly, it would seem from this analysis that a sad condition of apathy has
prevailed. The small proportion of detection cannot be accounted for by sup-
posing that crime is there more accurately reported, because (with the exception
of Tanjore) the actual number of cases reported in each district of the Southern
Range is not greater than in many other districts, where the per-centage of
detection is far higher. The present district officers are able, earnest, and
energetic, and whatever the local difficulties may be, they will doubtless be
conquered by persistent effort.
38. Thuggee and Robbery by drugging. — No conviction for Thuggee under
Section 311 of the Penal Code was recorded during the year. Twenty-three
cases of robbery by drugging have come to light, in six of which death ensued.

Appendix \\,— JUDICIAL,
In most caaes datura is the deleterious substance used. Seven persons fell vic-
tims. Nine cases (39 per cent.) were detected, and twelve persons were convict-
ed. These results are good? considering the circumstances under i^hich this
crime is usually committed. The perpetrators are strangers to their victims,
whom they leave insensible on decamping. little can be got from the suffer-
ers on recovery, save a confused description of the robbers. Either this crime
passed unnoticed before, or it has from some unknown cause increased of late.
It is remarkable that the Northern Range of Districts should be entirely free
from it. The Southern Range, so backward in general detective ability, comes
well to the front in this class of cases, having detected fifty per cent. The case
convicted in Tanjore furnished a remarkable instance of keen detective genius.
Three cases in Bellary District passed entirely imdetected. In the Western
Range, four out of ten cases were detected, and seven out of ten persons were
convicted. In Coimbatore, a gang of four prisoners robbed four cattle merchants,
two of whom died, and the other two recovered. Two of the prisoners were
convicted, one being sentenced to death, and the other to transportation
for life. Two of the members of this gang had before been tried in Salem
for a similar offence but were acquitted. There is no doubt they were profes-
sional Thugs.
89. Detective Remlte in Grave cases. -^There has been a marked decrease
in the number of cases as compared with 1866^ save in the Southern Range,
where a larger number of grave crimes has been reported than in any of the
four previous years. The ratio of detection has fallen off from that of 1866,
but is mucfe better than the average of three previous years. The Western
Range shews the best detection under these heads of crime, and the Southera
Range the wOTst. Tanjore, North Arcot, Bellary, South Arcot, and Cuddapab
shew by far the largest number of cases reported. Grave crime is very heavy
in these districts.

South Canara comes m first of alL This is not an absolute test of efficiency
and must not be taken to shew that the South Canara Police are the best
in the Presidency. In South Canara there is very little crime. Only sixty-two
cases under these heads have been reported in all, so that the Police must have
been able to devote the most careful and protracted attention to each case.
Local circumstances may facilitate detection, and all crime may not be report-
ed. But in districts which present no striking differences in area, population,
strength of Police, and the character and the condition of the people with
regard to crime, undoubtedly the test here laid down (viz., per-centage of detec-
tion of cases) is the best that can be obtained. Gaiyam, of the Northern Range,
Comes next to Canara, having been very successful in house-breaking. Then
follow the remaining districts of the Western Range. In North and South
Malabar there has been comparatively httle crime to deal with, but Salem and
Coimbatore, which come fourth and sixth on the Hst, are heavy districts.
Salem has taken the lead by success in house-breaking, and, in robbery, is very
slightly in advance of Coimbatore. In murder and dacoity Coimbatore is
superior. The detective results in these two difficult districts are most satis-
factory. Vizagapatam stands seventh on the hst, and then the Central Range
makes its appearance with Nellore and Madras Districts. Madras Town stands
only tenth on the list. Madura, the first of the Southern Range, is bracketed '
with Godavery, as No. 11 and Tinnevelly, with North Arcot, as No. 12.
Then follow the remaining districts of the Central Range. Detection in
Kumool has fallen from 25*6 in 1866, to 16*9 in the year under review.
This is a great falling off, but the district has been in trouble, and improved
results may now be confidently expected. The remaining three districts of
the Southern Range bring up the rear, accompanied, however, by Kistna of the
Northern Range, which is last but one on the list. Tanjore, the strongest
manned district of the whole Presidency, bears the wooden spoon. Detection
has fallen in this district from 25*2 in 1866, to the miserable ratio of 12*9 in

1867. The Police force is superabundant in number, but in quality must be
sadly defective.
41. Offences against Revenue Laws. — There has been a decrease of offences
imder the Revenue Laws, only 1,895 cases having been reported against 2,256
in 1866, while 3,398 persons were convicted against 4,541 in the previous year.
The decrease is entirely under the head of Breaches of Salt Laws. The
number of cases fell from 1,126 cases in 1866, to 468 cases in 1867, possibly,
the result of closer guarding. Abkarry cases increased from 1,130 cases in
1866, to 1,427 cases in 1867. The Police are beginning to scent rewards.
42. Petty Thefts tried hy Heads of Villages. — There were 10,337 cases of
Petty Thefts triable by heads of villages under Regulation IV of 1821, against
14,657 in the famine year of 1866. The average of three years has been
10,026 cases. 12,974 persons were convicted imder this head in 1867.
43. Gases reported to he false hy the Police, — Under Section 137 C. C. P.,
groundless complaints are reported by the PoHce to the Magistrates for orders,
and, under Section 153, if an accused person has been groundlessly arrested,
he is released on bail, and the case is similarly reported for orders. Should
the Magistrate concur with the Police in considering a complaint false, the
alleged ofifence is struck out of the Register of offences reported. Obviously,
therefore, this is a point of Police working which demands great watch-
fulness, for besides other temptations to give a wrong colouring to a case,
there is always a direct advantage to be gained by lessening the nimiber
of undetected cases on the Station House List ; and if true cases should with
any frequency be struck out as false, the statistics of prevention and detec-
tion of crime would be rendered unreliable. To ensure close check, every case
reported as false is required to be submitted to the Magistrate, through the
Divisional Inspector, and no case can be struck out without the Magistrate's
order. In 96*3 per cent, of cases the Magistrates have concurred with the
Police, and have ordered the cases referred to them to be struck ofif as false.
In several districts every case has been accepted as false. Either, therefore, the
Police are really scrupulously exact in this matter, or they succeed in repre-
senting the facts so plausibly, according to the view they wish to be taken, as
to convince the Magistracy that this view is correct. But it is difficult to
account satisfactorily for the great diflFerences that exist in dififerent districts
with regard to the number of cases reported as false, unless, indeed, the inhabi-
tants of certain districts are really more prone than others to make false
accusations. The following table shews the number of cases of grave crime
referred (as false) in dififerent districts, and may be compared with the detec-
tive results under the same heads of oflFence exhibited in paragraphs 39 and 40.

Of all cases (true and false) reported, twenty per cent, of Murder cases, 39*3
per cent, of Dacoities, 52 per cent, of Bobberies, and 18*2 per cent, of House-
breaking cases have been referred as false. By far the largest per-centage of
cases reported to be false (38*3 per cent, under all heads of grave crime) is in
the Western Range, where also by far the best detective results are exhibited.
On the other hand, the Southern Range, where detection is worst, exhibits the
next largest per-centage of referred cases (26*8 per cent.) In the Northern and
Central Ranges the proportion of Referred cases is much smaller. Godavery,
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Ixxxviii Appendix II. — JUDICIAL,
however, shews a lai^e number (36 '1 per cent.), and Nellore of the Central Range
shews 25 per cent. Ganjam, which shews so well in detection, has struck off only
the small proportion of 12 8 per cent, as false. The largest proportion of fSedse
charges are under the heads of dacoity and robbery. In Tanjore, no less than
79' per cent, of charges of dacoity, and 76* per cent of charges of robbery
were pronoimced to be false. Tinnevelly shews 69* per cent., and 74* per cent
respectively, of false cases under these heads. All the districts of the Western
Range shew very high averages. It would seem, therefore, that the inhabitants
of districts in the Western and Southern Ranges are specially addicted to the
concoction of false charges, or else that the Police in those parts are keener to
detect flaws. But why 36* per cent, of all cases reported in Salem should be
false, and only 16 '4 per cent, in North Arcot, immediately adjoining, it is diffi-
cult to determine. This much only can be said, that the propensity to prefer
false complaints is undoubtedly strong amongst Natives of India, whQe at the
same time the action of the PoUce in this matter must continue to be (as it is
now) most closely and jealously watched. The Magistracy would seem to be
satisfied.
44. Coies disposed of by Sessions Court, — Conviction was obtained in 66*3
per cent, of cases tried by the High and Sessions Coiuts, and 64*1 per cent, of
persons brought to trial were convicted. This last proportion is unsatisfactory.
The Northern and Western Ranges have been most successful in their averages.
The^ Southern Range stands lowest in the conviction of cases, and the Central
Range in the conviction of persons. In Madras Town, eighty-four per cent, of
cases tried by the High Court have been successfully prosecuted, and 73*6 per
cent, of persons brought to trial have been convicted. In South Malabar the
averages are equally high, 85*4 per cent, of cases and 73*2 per cent, of persons.
North Malabar, Coimbatore, and Madras Districts also shew very good results.
The averages are comparatively poor in Kistna, Bellary, Cuddapah, North
Arcot, Taiyore, Tinnevelly, Salem, and South Canara. Tanjore stands lowest
of the whole Presidency in the conviction of cases (53*7 per cent.), and Kistna
in the conviction of persons (36*5 per cent.)
