XXVII.* When a sale of lands shall have taken place under this Regu-
lation, the collector of the zillah in which the sale shall have been made
shall cause the entries of the transfer to be made in the public registers
directed to be kept by Regulation XLII. 1803.
XXVIII.* The Board of Revenue, who are empowered by this Regu-
lation to conduct the sales of land in the mode therein prescribed, will
consider themselves responsible for the careful execution of this duty;
and are required to be particularly attentive to the proper selection of
lands for sale by the collectors, as well as to the due allotment of the
public assessment thereupon, in conformity to the Regulations. They are
also authorized to fix the establishments of native officers which may be
necessary during the attachment of lands for sale, the expense of which
shall be defrayed from the produce of the lands, as provided in Regula-
tion XXVII. 1803; and statements of all such establishments shall be
submitted by the collectors, for their approval, as soon as possible after
the attachment may take place. In preparing such statements, the col-
lector shall be careful not to propose a greater number of officers, or
greater allowances to the officers employed, than may be indispensably
necessary; and the Board of Revenue, in approving such establishments,
shall give particular attention that this principle is duly observed. The
collectors shall also nominate, for the approbation of the Board of Revenue,
the aumeens and other principal native officers to be employed in the
management of lands under attachment, with the sureties to be taken for
their appearance under Section II. of Regulation XXXIII. 1803; and
will be held responsible for the utmost regard to the qualifications and
character of the persons so appointed by them.
