The Magistrates will keep a daily record of their proceedings, cases and decisions, and every three months a summary of the whole will be transmitted by the British Resident and other Magistrates directly to the High Commissioner, who will submit them to the Chief Justice or one of the Puisne Judges, for examination and comment, in order to insure a correct and uniform administration of justice. The Civil Commissioners and Magistrates for Wenburg and the Caledon River, will proceed to their destination via Bloemfontein with the least possible delay, taking with them their clerks and two Constables; the latter they must endeavour to engage. A Land Commission will be formed, consisting of the British Resident, as President-in-Chief; the Civil Commissioner and Magistrate of the District in which the Board is held, who will preside in the absence of the British Resident; two Land Surveyors; and one Burgher of the district elected by the people, members and the Clerk to the Magistrate of the District, in which the Commission are employed, act as Clerk to the Land Commission. The duty of this Commission is to divide the free matter of Her Majesty, the Great Orange and Vaal Rivers, into districts; the first to be designated that of protected, then all will derive that mutual benefit which a state of harmony, unavity, and peace alone leads to and will attain. Consistency, plain, dealing, and honesty of purpose on the part of the Magistrates, and, guiding their conduct by the great fact that their position is one requiring benevolence and consideration, as well as promptitude and determination in their decisions, which must be unequivocal and clearly comprehensible, is the line of conduct which, if energetically pursued, will ensure respect, confidence, and good faith in all classes of the Community within their respective Districts. Whatever their intercourse with the People induces them to consider would be beneficial to the community (they are to treat no man’s opinion with contempt) they will propose, through the British Resident, to the High Commissioner, upon whose exertions for the welfare of all, they may depend, as the Representative of our gracious Sovereign. These are the outlines of a system which will work itself into maturity, its wants being supplied as they show themselves; but the less it is shackled with legal technicalities and subtleties, the more simple it is; hence the more comprehensible, and better calculated for an infant Society. As this system progresses, markets shall be established at Bloem Fontaine, Winberg, and on the Coledon River. A weekly Post is in progress from the beginning.
