James I. divided the papers into two classes, Domestic and See also:Foreign, to which at a later date the class of Colonial Papers was added. These See also:series all come to an end at the year 1782, at which date the See also:modern See also:history of the office of Secretary of State begins.
Domestic.—Calendars of these papers have been published for the See also:period 1547–1676, with See also:special volumes dealing with the papers of the See also:Committee for Advance of See also:Money (1642–1656), and of the Committee for Compounding (1643-166o). Another series of volumes begins with the year 1689, and a third extends from 176o to 177= these last are called See also:Home Office Papers, but are in no way differeur

in See also:character from the State Papers Domestic. The Domestic Papers See also:relating exclusively to See also:Ireland have been calendared under the See also:title of State Papers, Ireland, for the years 1509-1601 and 1603-1665, with a special See also:volume dealing with the papers concerning Adventurers for See also:Land. From 167o these papers are calendared in the Domestic volumes.
See also:Scotland.—Originally there were in the State Paper Office two sets of papers relating to Scotland, State Papers Domestic, Border Papers, containing papers concerning the See also:Council of the See also:North and the Wardens of the See also:Marches; and State Papers Foreign, Scotland, before the See also:union of the two crowns. The first See also:calendar of these was a Calendar of State Papers, Scotland, 1509-1603, containing brief notes of all the State Papers Foreign, Scotland, and of many of the Border Papers which were removed from their places without any See also:record of the removal. Next came the Calendar of State Papers Foreign, in which were included apparently all the Border Papers for the period covered which had escaped the previous See also:raid; notes, however, were made of the papers so taken. Out of the See also:original 75 volumes of Border Papers only 36 remained. At a later date the papers See also:drawn for the Foreign Calendar were restored and now See also:form the first 19 volumes of the series, while the 36 volumes originally remaining have now become the final 23. At the same See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

time the State Papers Foreign, Scotland, were annexed, and became State Papers Domestic, Scotland. In their See also:present arrangement the Border Papers have been calendared in the following volumes: vols. 1-19 in the State Papers Foreign 1547-1560; vols. 20-42 in the Scottish See also:General See also:Register Office Calendar of Border Papers 1560-1603. The State Papers Domestic, Scotland, from 1547 on-wards, are being fully calendared in the Scottish General Register Office Calendar of Scottish Papers with other material. Those from 1509 to 1547 are dealt with in the Letters and Papers of See also:- HENRY
