INSPECTOR.

The Inspector will rccide at the place appointed
ror him.

He is to receive his orders .and instructions from,
~t matrn Trec7ions Por ire execution of his' -duty, as he will
expect the same submission from the officers and
men placed under his command.
Each Inspector will have under him four Serjeants
and thirty-six men, and he will be responsible for
their general conduct and good order.
It is expected that by constant personal inter-
course with them all, he shall make himself well
acquainted with the talents and general moral cha-
racter of each individual.
lie should immediately report to the Superinten-
dent any circumstances which he observes in the
conduct of the men requiring notice.
If upon complaint made, or otherwise, he shall
think any punishment ougk t to be inflicted on the
men, he will, as soon as possible, communicate the
whole matter to the Superintendent for his decision,
taking any immediate step, by suspension of the man
from duty, if the case requires that.
He will take care that the standing orders and re-
gulations, mad all others given out from time to time,
are promptly and strictly obeyed by those under him.
It is expected that he shall be able and ready to
give instructions to the Serjeants and Men, on all
points relating to their duty.
Any neglect of Duty must immediately be re-
ported. Of the four Inspectors belonging to each
company, two will always be on Duty at the same
time—one remaining in the Division Station for the
purposes stated hereafter, the other doing the
General Duty in the streets ; these two may arrange
mutually the times for relieving each other, or that
shall be fixed by the Superintendent. The Inspec-
tors for Duty will be at the Division Station punc-
tually at the hour appointed in Orders ; each will
inspect his several parties going on Duty, and make
all the necessary preparations in silence and good
order, receive the reports from the Serjeants of the
state of their respective parties, give the Serjeants,
in writing, the hours fcr making their patrols round
the Section, and the point at which he will receive
reports from them of the state of the Section; he
will then give orders to the Serjeants to march off
their parties to their several Stations.
The Inspector on the Street Duty will see as
much of the Division as pc:isible at uncertain hours;
and it is desirable that he should see every part of
it once at least during his tour of Duty. He will
make a note of the Reports of the Seijeants, at the
appointed times and places; and if any Seijeant du
trot appear to make his report, inquiry should be im-
mediately made to ascertain the cause.. .

In the event of any felony or rioting, or upon any
sudden emergency, he will send for such assistance
as may be required, either to the Division Station,
or the residence of the Section, but to the latter

only in case of necessity; if he judges it expedient,
he will also send to the Superintendent. A printed
form of report'of the occurrences of the night NI ill
be filled up and forwarded to the Superintendent at
o'clock each morning.
In the event of a fire taking place, the Inspector,
if the Superintendent be absent, will take upon
himself the entire direction of the Police, and act in
conformity with the instructions for that purpose al-
ready given to the Superintendent.
The Inspector on Duty at the Division Station
will keep good order there; he will be held respon-
sible for the constant readiness of the reserve party,
not allowing drinking either by them or other per-
sons; he is to receive all charges brought to the
Station, entering them in a book, according to a
printed form. If any property be brought to him,
either taken from persons apprehended or• otherwise,
he will immediately make an entry of the same in the
property book, and state it shortly in his report to
the Superintendent; the articles of property them-
selves should be malice(' the instant they are le-
ceived, so that they can be afterwards certainly
known to be the same; they should be taken by the
inspector himself from the party bringing them, and
not allowed to be out of his sight until marked in
the manner directed; they should then he locked up
by the Inspector in the place kept for that puipi;se,
.end of which he alone haq-keicet;•-be will take (Tre.

confined; if the offence with which they are charged,
be only a petty misdemeanour, he may set them at
liberty, taking a recognizance for their appearing
next day at the Sitting Magistrate's Office, unless
that should be a Sunday, Christmas Day, or Good
Friday; then on the following day, at the same
hour; he will find directions in the recognizance
Look as to the manner in. which this is to he done.

In case application' is made to.him for assistance
he will, according to the hest of his judgment, ren-
der all in his power, either from the reserve party,
or by calling up those off duty ; but this last is only
to be done in cases of necessity, and notice should
immediately be sent to the Superintendent ; he
should, before he grants any, be satisfied with the
grounds upon which it is demanded, that the party
has a right to demand it, &e.
An immediate entry is to he made by him, in the
book of occurrences, and ineht.led in the following
morning's report to the Superintendent.
lie will pay particular attention to all complaints
made against any individual of the police force ; if
made in person, requesting the parry to sign such
account of it as the hiSpec!or shall enter in his book,
except in cases where an immediate step is neces-
sary, such complaint shall be merely forwarded to
the Superintendent in next morning's report, for his
decision.

Previous to his being relieved, he shall make up
his report fully, and deliver or send it to the Super-
intendent ; he must appear at the office of the Sit-
ting Magistrates, to substantiate any charge, if lines
sary.
He will at all times be required, by every means
in his power, to obtain such information as the
Superintendent desires, upon all matters relating to
Police.
