Instructions
Ch. XXVI. Local Headmen

Instructions to the Legislator to
this and the next regarding Chapter on Local Registrars

The supposition which the institution of this pair of functionaries
will on official local field for common to the two
has for its ground, is that such is the average populousness and inequitude
of a Subdistrict that the quantity of business having reference to time would be too great
to be performed by a
number of functionaries
corresponding to the number
of Subdistricts — of
the local fields of service
of the Immediate Judicatories,
and bonds that the
distance of the such of
the inhabitants
whose abodes were furthest
from the Justice Chamber
would be so great as
to be productive of
preponderant inconvenience.

homes for these purposes.

Intimately connected, and on the ground of utility
inseparable are the two offices official situations of Local Headman, and
Local Registrar. The conjoint use of them is to bring as
near as possible to each man's door the government service in
all its branches and with all its benefits, justice excepted
so far as may be without actual adverse contention
a process attended with difficulties for the solution of which
the a greater proportion of appropriate intellectual aptitude
will be necessary that can be counted depended upon on the part
of so large a multitude of functionaries as that which
will be requisite for the apt discharge of ap exercise of the
functions in for which the exercise of whether which
it is necessary should be performed and which in all most of which
States are accordingly performed in some way or other
under whatsoever a degree of disadvantage, and accordingly
in how imperfect so ever a manner, performed.

The aggregate mass of the portion of the state being
given, inversely as the magnitude will be the number of those compound masses
which are the result of the last division operation in the
process of division, they being supposed as near as may
be to one another in magnitude, and form, that
form being a square as being that in which they will be
the difference between the longest and the shortest line that can
be drawn to the extremity of the figure from the most central
point in it, is at its minimum.
