We present a polarimetric analysis of 49 long-period pulsars discovered aspart of the High Time Resolution Universe (HTRU) southern survey. The sourcesexhibit the typical characteristics of "old" pulsars, with low fractionallinear and circular polarisation and narrow, multicomponent profiles. Althoughthe position angle swings are generally complex, for two of the analysedpulsars (J1622-3751 and J1710-2616) we obtained an indication of the geometryvia the rotating vector model. We were able to determine a value of therotation measure (RM) for 34 of the sources which, when combined with theirdispersion measures (DM), yields an integrated magnetic field strength alongthe line of sight. With the data presented here, the total number of values ofRM associated to pulsars discovered during the HTRU southern survey sums to 51.The RMs are not consistent with the hypothesis of a counter-clockwise directionof the Galactic magnetic field within an annulus included between 4 and 6 kpcfrom the Galactic centre. A partial agreement with a counter-clockwise sense ofthe Galactic magnetic field within the spiral arms is however found in the areaof the Carina-Sagittarius arm.
