Newly-organised Burmese police returning from night duty, 1861. A new system of police has recently been introduced into British Burmah, which has enabled the authorities to withdraw several of the Madras regiments of infantry. The police-force is being rapidly organised under the respective superintendents of districts. Our Illustration (from a sketch by Captain Batten, of the 18th Madras Native Infantry) shows two of the Bassein constables returning from night duty. It is monsoon weather, and they are both provided with umbrellas. One carries his bedding over his shoulders, and the other on his back, resting on his cartridge-pouch. From "Illustrated London News", 1861.
