The Tehseeldar is employed here, as elsewhere, in the collection of the land revenue, in the usual way; but the _Jumogdar_ is an officer unknown in our territories.

Some are appointed direct from Court, and some by the Nazims and Amils of districts.

When a landholder has to pay his revenue direct to Government (as all do, who are included in what is called the Hozoor Tehseel), and he neglects to do so punctually, a Jumogdar is appointed.

The landholder assembles his tenants, and they enter into pledges to pay direct to the Jumogdar the rents due by them to the landholder, under existing engagements, up to a certain time.

This may be the whole, or less than the whole, amount due to Government by the landholder.
