Concan, and First-Lieutenant E. Searight was Assistant-Con

following officers of the Bombay Marine held appointments at
Calcutta : Captain John Hayes, Master-Attendant; Com
mander W. Arrow, Assistant Master-Attendant (with an
appointment, under date of the 12th of May, 1819, to succeed
Captain Hayes when a vacancv should occur); Captain Daniel
Ross, Marine Surveyor in India; Captain W. Maxfield, First
Assistant; First-Lieutenant John S.Criddle, Second Assistant;
and Second-Lieutenant C. Bavilard, attached to the depart
ment. But, as successive augmentations took place in the
Service and the sphere of its duties was enlarged, so, in an
inverse ratio and contrary to the treatment received by their
military btethren, the staff appointments, considered the prizes
of the Service were, one by one, abolished, until the state
of affairs was reached, animadverted upon by Captain
Haines, in a memorial he presented to the Court of Directors
in 1837. In this statement, which met with the consideration
always displayed by the Hon. Court towards their Naval Service,
we find that the reductions in the staff appointments since the
year 1828, were as follow:—
