75.
THE PERMANENT SETTLEMENT. 339 tlie maintenance of whicli for ever the faith of tlie British Government is said to have been pledged, is that the poorer classes in poorer provinces have to make good to the State the millions which have been thrown away in Bengal.
If this were all, it would be bad enough, but worse remains to be told. More serious evils have followed in the train of the Permanent Settlement. The crown- ing misfortune has been the destruction or non-recogni- tion of those righ
...ts of the masses of the agricultural population which the authors of the Settlement un- doubtedly intended to preserve.
' The original intention of the framers of the Permanent Settlement [I am quoting from Sir George Campbell] was to record all rights. The Canoongoes (District Registrars) and Putvrarees (Village Accountants) were to register all holdings, all transfers, all rent-rolls, and all receipts and payments ; and every five years there was to be filed in the public offices a complete register of all land tenures.
