the new circle will not, in the meanwhile, be in any way interfered with
or curtailed ; but, should the expenditure be objected to by Government,
I think that some of the 60 vaccinators, and of the nine head vac-

itineration to infected parts at any moment, working at other times with
the general body of the rest of the staff.

are herewith attached. They include the vaccination by Dr. Charles,
the Superintendent General of Vaccination at Calcutta, performed at
and around the city itself; also those performed in the zillah districts,
under the dispensary system and within the municipalities; and,
besides, the vaccination carried on in the Darjeeling and Ranchee
circles, and those within the Sonthal Pergunnahs.
