1824.—"It has been objected to the \*ryotwári\* system that it produces unequal assessment and destroys ancient rights and privileges: but these opinions seem to originate in some misapprehension of its nature."—\*Minutes, &c., of Sir T. Munro\*, i. 265. We may observe that the spelling here is not Munro's. The Editor, Sir A. Arbuthnot, has followed a system (see Preface, p. x.); and we see in \*Gleig's Life\* (iii. 355) that Munro wrote 'Rayetwar.'
