[The Raj in the 1880s: British parliamentary papers relating to India]:Biblio.com

The Raj in the 1880s. "Accounts and Papers 12". Collection of fourteen British parliamentary papers relating to: transfer of government to Simla railways silver finance tax accounts loans revenue and expenditure.

24668All fourteen items printed for the House of Commons in London in 1886: items 9 12 and 14 by Eyre and Spottiswoode the rest by Henry Hansard and Son. The present collection reflects the state of Kiplingâ€™s India during the high summer of the Raj. At the end of 1884 Lord Dufferin replaced the Earl of Ripon as Viceroy and apart from a period of seven months between June of 1885 and January of 1886 when Lord Salisbury and the Conservatives were in power following the death of General Gordon and Lord Randolph Churchill was Secretary of State Gladstone and the Liberals were in power. All the items in the present collection are scarce: disregarding electronic reproduction the only copies on JISC LHD appear to be held by the deposit libraries and UCL. Each item was printed separately and it would appear from similar cases that the title and contents leaves were specially produced for this collection and a few others such as that of the Bodleian. Fourteen discrete items as evidenced by different gradations of fading in a sturdy rebinding in buff-coloured buckram with reinforced hinges and the original plum leather labels gilt laid down on the spine: â€˜ACCOUNTS AND PAPERS / 12â€™ and â€˜VOL 49â€™. A total number of 782 folio pages according to a nineteenth-century manuscript pagination. Binding and contents in good condition although the paper of the items is discoloured and somewhat brittle with a few closed tears here and there. Two leaves have been specially printed for the collection: one with the title and another with two pages of contents. The title reads: â€˜Accounts and papers: thirty-nine volumes. / - 12. - / East India. / Session 1. - 12 January 1886 -- 25 June 1886. / Session 2. -- 5 August 1886 - 25 September 1886. / Vol. XLIX. / 1886.â€™ In manuscript on reverse of title: â€˜This Book is to be preserved in the Libraries of the Home Office 1886â€™. â€˜WITHDRAWNâ€™ stamp at foot of same page. All but items 3 10 and 12 have details printed in characteristic fashion at right angles on the reverse of the final leaf. The contents arranges the items under the following headings: Accounts 1; Home Accounts 2 Financial Statement 1886-87 3 Income Tax Act 4 Loans raised in England 5 and 6 Loans raised in India 7 and 8 Railways 9 East India Progress and Condition 10 Revenue and Expenditure 11 Silver Question Great Britain and India 12 Transfer of Government to Simla 13 Statement of Trade 14.
