Or OSBSTSB OQOHTT CIRCVMLOCVTWN An internecine paper war ia now going on between tbe Edinburgh Review and Charles Dicker's. Having lost that independence of Government influence which gave it a high character, oven after tbe brilliant assistance of Jepvhev, Bbouohau, and Sidney Smith ceased i the Edinburgh Review has latterly been the tlucV.-and-tliin champion of successive Whig Administrations, whether presided over by that puny morsel of pretonce, Lord Jons Russell, or that political Protect), Lord Palmebston. So entirely is this the case that, four years ago, whon Sib Geoboe Cobnwall Lewis was Editor, there appeared in the Review wliat is called a “ slashing arti cle” on Mr. Disbaeli, full of tho grossest per sonalities, written by a literary man high in the employment of tho Government. Sib Geoboe Lewis is now Chancellor of the Ex chequer and one.of the Cabinet of England, and has ostensibly retired from literature, but bis influenco is visible in tho Edinburgh Re view, and tho last number contains an article which, in all probability, he either wrote, re vised, or ordered. Not long ago CHAr.LEsDioKBNs completed bis novol of “Little Dorrlt,” and, much about the same time, Cii Abies Keaoe (a new and ri sing author) published what he called “A matter-of-fact Romance,” entitled “It in never toqlato to mend.” Dickens, who is a social reformer in his own way, fell foul ol the ineffi ciency of the Government, doclared that tha whole art of Government (in England) lay in discovering how not to do it, and happily In vented tho phrase of “Tlio Circumlocution Office,” which indicates, very sufficiently, what the machinery is., Mr. Reads wrote his: book principally to show up tho abominable system of Prißon Discipline in England, under which had been inflicted punishments tho most cniel and illegal—punislimonts which some times Induced mortal disease—punishments which sometimes led to suicide. Ho founded his Btory on actual facts—Lioutonant Austin, tho Governor of Birmingham Gaol, having actually been tried, convicted, and imprisoned for having done all, and more, that was related in tho story. Tho Reviewer, while he admits that the jailor’s sovoro andillegal discipline showed “lamentable indifference to human suffering,” and that the magistrates trusted him with that irresponsible power which makes tyrants, bit terly complains of Mr. Reade —first, for basing his story upon facts j secondly, for not adhe ring, word by word, to tho actual evidence j and noxt, for declaring that three months’ im prisonment was too small a punishment for having, by liis deliberate and devilish cruelty, (ingenious in its refinements and accumulation of torture,) drivon a miserable prisoner to commit suicide j and, lastly, for having asked how five of the seven indictments against the cruel jailer were abandoned—swamped by the nolle prosequi of the Government lawyers. Against Mr. Diokens there appeared only a general defence of tho Government, from the imputation of “ circumlocution” nnd an asser tion that tho adoption of Rowland Hill’s penny postage plan, and his own appointment to superintend its working, wereprgols against Dickens’ rash and wholesale satire. Mr. Kkaoe has not replied. Not so [Mr. Dickers, who lias answered the Review, at some length, in Mb own weekly Household Words, and refers to the notoriety of the fact that, for years ufler, as well as before, tho penny postage scheme was established, tbo Post Office vehemently opposed it—that Mr. Hill was not allowed tohavo anythingto do with its working until years after it commenced— that ho was finally pressed on tho Government by public opinion—and that, after all, instead of being Postmaster General, or at least Se cretary, he was smuggled in as Secretary to the Postmaster. Dickens has hit hard, whether Sir Gioboe Lewis, or one of his men, wrote the Review attack.- Indeed; Dickers was under no necessity of defending Ids introduction of « The Circum locution Office,” so notorious are the instances which justify it. After he had completed “Little Dorrit,” no less an authority than Mr. Justice Hauburton, (author of “ Sam Slick,’’ one of the wisest as well as wittiest of modern books,) declared at a public lecture in Scotland, arterwards published, that, during tiie late Crimean war, Canada offered to raiso, equip, and scud two complete regiments as her voluntary contribution to the necessity of tho mother country, and the letter containing this offer was returned to Canada from London un answered —because it had been addressed to tho wrong office! We find another “ Circumlocution” fact in a London paper called tho United Service Ga zette, specially devoted to the military and na val services of Great Britain.

It is altuato two inilos below the city, on the Ohio riror, and from tha portico, which commands one of the moat magnificent of views, js seen our noblo stream stretching ou each side as far ns tho oyo can roach. The Marino Hospital Is a largo and substantial building. Tho patients &( this time omonnt to twenty-five, oil of whom aro treated in o skilful manner. Among the patients is a negro, called General Jackson. Ho wftsa servant to the Hero of New Orleans. Twenty yoar3 since he was liboratod by bis generous mastor. Sinco that time ho has be* oomo insane, and now he raves about his former i friend with all tho forco and vigor characteristic of one in bis condition. A gentleman told him that ho knew Jaokson—thot ho had been at tho Honnit* age, and had uoted tho kindness and charity dis* played by the old Hora. Tho stalwart negro melted. In a moment he wrns in tears. Tho .post rushed upon him, and once moro ho was amid tho scenes of hia boyhood. How potent tho infiuonco of mind! We may feel indifferent to fashion; wo may disregard tho mode of tho times, and net like persons who despise the fuss and feathers of tho day; yot, whothor man or woman—whetbor edu cated or ignorant—whether lofty or lowly, all must fool and acknowledge the forco of a commanding mind. Under tho suporin tendeneo of Samuel Smith, the excellent and attontivo steward, the grounds— amounting to ton acres—have been placed in ft at&to of high cultivation, and tbo building is so clean and comfortablo that it rivals our private residences. Mr. Smith was onoo a member of our Stale Legislature—is a consistent. Democrat, and is now a faithful ami most efficient public officer. Johu S. Hall, a talented and ingonious mechanic of this city, is about completing a steam carriage, ‘which, bo says, will run ten milos per hour. ML Hall is a young man ; notwithstanding this, beh&t already tukon out sevon patents und bids fair to' becorno ono of tho most eminent mechanics in tho country. At tho fair of ’5O and ’57 Mr. nail took tho prizo for tho best ploughs. Tho inventor of tho steam-carrlago is a man of a high order of invontivo intolioot. Ho has done muoh, and his future promlsos to bo full of useful-, noes and honor. Ilia bteam-carriage is a most ful invention, and, while the travelling public whirl along our high roads, thanks will l>o returned to the man whoso gonius suggestud tbo idea and whoso skill accomplished the task. Last Sabbath I spontin attendance at one of our fashionable churches. Tho clergyman was oar nost, dovoted, logical, and oloquent. In tho povr immediately beforo mo sat a lady gorgeously ar rayed in all that a bad taste and a ridiculous fashion could suggest. Mrs. Pepperbox—whoso taste is generally correct—says that tho dross of tho lady cost ovor fifteen hundrod dollars. I was struck with tbo thought that tbore was something peculiarly appropriate in tho phrase “ Nothing to woar.” Last night I visited tho theatre. Tho number of persons in attendance was largo. A gentleman who is agreat admirer of good dram&tio perform ances called my attention to an individual wear ing a pin valuod at six thousand dollars! I was foroed to think of what ia now a say, “ Nothing to wear.” I passed along our public streets. I saw young lasses who nolthor toll nor aplu arrayed in gar ments surpassing in gorgoousnoss and cost tins ap parel of those bred in the East, and I was forced to tbiuk that thero was neither truth nor poetry in tho new expression, “ Nothing to woar.” I saw a boy of twonty; ho was clad In all that wealth could command. On hU porson tho artist bad exhausted bis latent. Tho satin, the silk, tho hose, and tbo broadcloth were resplendent. His conduct was that of ono whoso funds wero “ flush,'’ and whose appearance indicated a high regard for dross. I could not but think of a poom entitled “Nothing to Woar.*’ In fact, my doar Fress, wherevor wo go, to the publio mart, to the counting-houso, the the ball room, tho theatre, or the house sot apart to tho prayer and praise of tho Most High, wo look in vain for “ Nothing to wear.” • “ Nothing to wear!” The thought is ridiculous. In our glorious land, whore labor is honored and industry is rewarded, none but tbo utterly degra ded havo “ Nothing to woar.” Our very air i # fragrant with tho sweets of tho harvest field* and from tho anvil rings a tone as poetio as that which falls from tho pen of Holmes or nood.

Mr. Church had a peculiar building erected near ' bo Court House, which bo used oa a privato office. , r t ii yot standing, in a tolerably good stale of pre -aeration, and is occupied as a dwelling. It at tracts much attention, on account of Us oddity, and 'brfamUiarly known as ‘/Jerry Chuteb’a folly." He iJsßcriboa it himßolf as follows: ;? “In order to carry out my originality, I buiJt an office in the town, standing eight feet above' tho ground, oh tfUrtsen largo posts, or pUars, to repre sent our thirteen Continental States. In the first place it was mode by placing thirteen large pino Does, five feet in tho ground and thirty foot long, ’in th?ir natural at&to, with tho oxcoption of t&kiug the bark ofT, and painting thorn iu imitation of marble, with a fourteen foot, room formed inside of tbo posts, so os to form a balustrade! alt around it; and the roof projecting oVer it so as to protect tho building. ' I cCncluded, when I was making it, that it was an odd-lookiug office, and different from any ope I had seen in this country. And as I was no liwyer, and could not expect &oy notice or buslnoss in that way, I concluded that I would build my offico so that clients might look at U without auy ■lf lam not very much mistaken, they would make as much at that as they would if I had .been a lawyer myself, I hod a number of soiontl fio gentlemon viow tho little building, and tboy always asked what order I intoudod it to bo. I toldihom I neyor did anything according to or der—it was all a matter of Lorio; that I novor learned anything by rote, and, therefore, could ! j)ot luforfii them any moro than It was my.otm or dor, and that appeared to satisfy thorn.” j According to tho census of Look llsvon in 1850, the population scarcoly*oxceedcd eight hundrod; now it will not fall far short of threo thousaud, and in 1860, if it continues io improve as it D ut .tho present timo, it will number fivo thousand in habitants. From this fact tbo roadoroan form somo idea of tbo progress it is making. * Lumbering is very extensivoly carried on hero, and thousands of dollars aro invested in tho busi ness. Thero aro four largo steam saw mills in successful operation in tbo upper part of tho town, and a short distance below, on tho other side of rlvor, tbore are two moro. These mills aro oapabJo of manufacturing sixty millions of foot por annum. PBTEK Plpfiß. Easton, Pa., Sept. 7,1857. PENNSYLVANIAN fIISTOHY. BY JCrUN OF LANCASTER > This eccentric individual also erected a summer wat up among tho wide-spreading branches of so yeral walnut trees that grow on the bank of tho iriver, wbero he used to sit for honr3 and reooivo tho visits of the oilizecs. i In 1810 Mr. Church bid adieu to Lock Haven, find dopr.rted for tho West, whore he has since founded two or threo town 3. If ho wore to return pow to tho town that ho founded *eomo eighteen years ago, ho would bo surprised at tho progress it has'made. * •An extensive basin bos rcoently boon mado within ft short distance of tho town, and filled With water from tho Bald Eagle Canal, capable of bolding 2,500,000 foot of saw-logs. Tlio coinpaoy also havo tho power to connect it with the boom and river, which will afford facilities for tho most extensive lumbering operations. Anothor largo basin, called Clinton Harbor, is ioftfttod on tbo Pennsylvania Canal, sufficiently ca pacious to oontaln overjono million foot of logs, and affords abundant facilities for additional milts and other manufacturing operations on a vory exten sive scale. In 1843 a gentleman named Johnson, from New Hampshire, who owned largo traoU of timber lands intho immediate vioinity of tho towu, mado a pro position to some of tho enterprising oittzens, that if tboy could obtain a charter from tho Legisla ture to erect a boom in the river, it would attract lumber manufacturers, and give an impulse to tho growth of the town that would in time inako it ono of the most important points on tho rivor. They acted upon, his suggestiou, and immediately sot about securing Iho charter. After encountering much opposition from old fogies, and having to en counter mouy other difficulties, the oharter was ul timately obtained. A contract was then mado with Potor Dickinson, ouo of tho most oaterprising and ; accomplished business men of tbo place, to oreot tbo boom within a given poriod of time. Mr. 1). wont to work, and fulfilled bis coutraot to tho sat isfaction of all interested. It is now owned by a stock company, and is capable of holding an im mense) quantity of logs. These logs uro out on the timber lauds up tbo river, thrown in and floated down till caught in tho boom. It is valuod at $lOO,OOO, and at somo periods, in tho spring, has contained 200,000 saw logs. Soon aftor the completion of tho boom, tho rapid growth of tho towncommonoed; property doubled, troblod, and quadrupled in value, and soon tho va- cant lots wero covered with noat substantial dwel lings, and tho streets filled with an industrious, bnorgctic, and prosperous population. The pool of the Dunnstowu dam, which extends up to the town, is tho groat point for tho concen tration of rAfts from tho lumbering regions up Kottlo creek, Sinnomshoning, and tho rivor. Whon tho spring freshets sot in, and tho rafting sonson com mences, hundreds of rafts, composed both of boards and timber, aro constantly arriving und “tying up” In the dam. Thu scene prcscutcd at this time is a very busy und animated uue—the town is crowded with “ raftsmen,” fresh from tho wilds of tho pino forest, and hundreds of speculators, too, are on hand to purchnso lumber. Tho lumber ma nufacturers obungo off their mou at this point, giving their rafts into tbo hands of “pilots,” who enter into contracts to run them safely to Middle town, Mariottn, or Columbia. Tbo prices charged by these pilots to deliver rafts at tho points desig nated below is from fifty to sovonty-fivo dollars eaoh, they finding hands to nssist in running them. A flootof two heavy timber rafts requiroa four men, pilot, to run thorn. Thoy aro paid by tbo trip, from twelve to fifteen dollars. It requires from threo to four duya to rnuko u trip down. For many wllos wost of Lock Haven, there is bnt little tillable land along tho river or its tributaries; but this mountainous district is well covered with a great variety of the finest timber, and abounds in excellent veins of bituminous coal, iron oro, and fine day. Tho principal business of tho lumbering aud mining operations is transacted at Lock Jla yen; und from this point nil supplies unHt neces sarily be obtained Lock Haven contains some of tho finest and most costly privato rosidonces of any town on tho rivor. TU© dwelling of L. A. Maokoy is a model of archi tectural beauty, reflecting groat credit upon tho mechanic, ns well as tho liberality of tho worthy proprietor. There aro otbor beautiful buildings, which arc stoat ornaments to tho town, and much admired by strangers, belonging to Gou. D. K. Jackman, Hon. Allison "White, P. Dickinson, Esq., Captain Jarrott, and others. Look Havou can justly boast of having ono of tho most magnificent hotels in tho Stato. It is consi dered that thero are only two iu Philadelphia— tho Girard ami La Pierre—that will oxcol it. It is called tho Fallon House, after Christopher Fal- lon of your olty, who contributed materially to tho trado of tho town. It is kopfc by Mr. Lobo, Into of tho Commercial Hotel, in Philadelphia, and is doing an excellent business. Th© building is vory largo, ami furnished throughout in the most sump tuous manner. It is of brick, plastered in imita tion of brown stono. Tho Lock Haven Bank, an excellent Institution, with a capital of $200,000 paid in, is in one end of tho building. Thoro aro two nowspspors published in Look Havon, the "Watchman am! Dcmocsat —the for- mer by D. S. Duuham, aud tho latter' by H. L. IHeffonbaob, a bold and vigorous writor, woll known throughout tho Stato. Tho morcantilo businoss is carried on with great success, and largo quantitiesofgoods are annually disposed of. Thero aro about twonty stores in tho town. Tho various moohanlcal arts aro pursued with great energy and suocess. The Bald Eagle Canal, commencing at Bcllo fonto, Centro county, intersects tho West Branch Division of tho Pennsylvania Canal at Look Haven, and ft steamboat plies regularly betwoen the latter place and Queen’s Run, Farrandsville, Tangoscoo* tack, the principal points for lading boats with hi tuwiuoqs coal and fin brick, The ,@unbury And Erie Railroad will pass through tho town, and if ever this important link in tho chain of our im provements is completed, it is supposed that their principal machine shops will bo located hero. The Tyrone Railroad also starts from thia point, and will connoot tho Pennsylvania Central with tho Sunbury and Erio. Vigorous efforts are being made to push it through to completion. . Lock Haven enjoya admirable advantages; and, with tho facilities that these railroads will afford her, thero will bo no barrier tu interpose betweop her and pre-eminent greatness in tho future. Her inhabitants aro active and energetic; tboy we deeply imbued with tbo spirit of progress and im provement, and old fogylsm is not permitted to fiourLh in their midst. I prosumo it will not bo out of place to close the present sketch of Lock Haven with an amusing anecdote, concerning *OOO of tbo citizens, that is faid to bayo acluully occurred. B. W. Morrison, Esq., Is Iho gontleman to whom I havo reference. Ho is ono of those free and easy, good-hearted, humorous follows, that are always ready to oraok a joko or porpotruto “ a sell.” “Bon,” as he is familiarly known by everybody in the place, is a lawyer by profession, a Democrat in polities, six foot high, vory good looking, and an old bachelor. Some flftoen yoara ago Ben was travelling in Butler county on professional busiuoss. Tho roods wero intolerably bad, and, worst of &U, the stago drivors and tho landlord at a certain hotel whero they stopped far dinner, hod an understanding with each other something liko this: The passengers woro taken in to dino, and when cleverly seated, tho ooaoh would furiously dash up to tho door, and tho driver would oall for bis passengers, stating that ho could cot delay s minute, on accountof making his time. They would rush out, heaving their meals half finished, for fear of beiug loft. For the half-finishod moal they wore charged half a dollar. Tbo victuals wqro kept for the next load of possoogeis, wbon iho skinning process was re peated. r Ben had heard of this place, and when they ar rived at the hotel ho sot his wits to work to Beo if he could not get tho full valae of his money. The bell rang' for dinner and tho crowd rushed In. Thoy had scarcoly got comfortably seated, when tho coach reined up at tho door, and tho driver vociferously shouted: . . “ Passengers atl aboard —can’t wait but Jive minutes.” Delaware A gonoral rush was made, but Ben sat still and ato his dinner vory composedly. The stago drove off and left him, but ho scorned to caro vory littlo aboutit. Having disposed of his dinner, bo was enjoying tho luxury of along nine in the sido room, when tbo landlord approached hiui, saying : “I—l beg your pardon, sir, but did you see a sot of silver tea-spoons on the table whon yoa went in to dinner?” „ “ I did sir.” “ Well, thoy are missing—can’t bo found.” “ Ah, yes,” replied Ben, “ one of tho passengers gathered thorn up—l saw him do it.” “ Would you know him again?” gasped tho landlord. “ Cotainly I would,” replied Ben with groat coolness. “ Will you point him out to me if I hitch up my horse and buggy and overtake tho stago ? “ Certainly I will.” Boniface was rc/fdy in q fow miuutcs, and getting Beu in with him; drove liko Jehu for seven miles till ho overtook tiro-coach He drove up alongside and hailed tho driver. The coach stopped, tho driver looked frightened, and everybody wondered to sco tho landlord covered with mud, and his horse foaming with sweat. 8011 jumped out of tho buggy and got into the stago, when tho driver, thinking that he had hired the landlord to bring him after, was on the point of driving off, when tbo latter yelled out-:- “Is that passenger in thero?” “ Yes,” replied Bon. “Aro you sure?” “ Yea, 3trree } " shouted ourbacbolor frioml. “Which one is it?” “ It’s mo,” replied Ben with & grin. “ You l” thundorod Boniface, “ what the devil did you do with them spoons ?” “/put them in the eojfee pot, may it please your honor—you will find them all safe,” roplied Ben, with a ourious twinkle in his eye. “Sold, by ginger, by that tarael Yankee,” ; yelled tho ltndlord, whilst the passengers roared with laughter, and putting tho whip to his horse ..drove buck, resolving to givo tho passengers ever afterwards amplo timo for dinner. Bon rotated his whole advonture to them, and ho was tho lion of the party during tho rest of tho tournoy. A CAPITAL LEGAL ANECDOTE. [For Tlic I’rcß'i } A Philadelphian, now residing in Valparaiso, S. A., writing to a friend in this city, tells the fol lowing story. Horo aro his words: “ I had, to-day, an opportunity of visiting a court of justice in Chili, through tho klndnoas of Beuor Coho, editor of tho ministerial organ. I was introduced “ behind the throne.” Tho caso was a vory remarkable one Thero exists in Chili a class of lognl vultures who havo never passed an examination, cannot appear in tho higher courts, and who generally contrive to “bleed” their poor clients to thrico tho amount of tbo sum involved.

In the faulty organization of tho military government plocod under tho control of the civil servico. “ The native army, consisting of seventy-three regiments of 1,000 men each, tolerates patiently, but also contemptuously, its English officers, and, from the statement of itscommandlng officers, who really took an interest in its organization, it was a secrot enemy of tho Indian Government. “ A groat general ofton observed that ho feared the Sepoys more than an enemy on the froctior. “ The army, which consists exclusively of Hin doos and Musselmans, to whom the nee of pork fat Is expressly forbidden by their religion, mado a pretext of greased cartridges given to them with a new description of muskeU. and they rose as ono man at every military station. The soldiers first refused obedience; they then fired on thoir officers on parade, and then deserted their colors and their profession forever. “The Government at first tried to persuade itself that it was only an accidental mutiny in two or three discontented regiments, and tho Governor- General issaod a proclamation to reassure the troops that other cartridges would be given them, and that theJGoveruniont would never interfere with their religion. The troops received the proclama tion with very bad grace, and a few hGurs after it had been officially read some regiments fired on their officers, burned their stations, and put to death all Europeans they mot with, without regard to sex or ago. “The so-eallod mutiny assumed the proportions of a serious revolution, fomented throughout the whole of India by all lire dethroned king 3 and de posed Mussulman Princes. "What is the cause of this revolution ? Is it to be attributed to tho greasod catridges, or solely to discontent among the sepoya? ‘•No. it is to be attributed— “l. To tho policy of annexation, followod for many years by the representatives of the East In dia Company, “2. To the unjust treatment of the women and J heirs of the deposed crownc-d heads. “3. To tbo breach of faith on tho part of tho Government towards tho army on two different oc casions. “4. To the humiliation of Europeans in favor of a few privileged classes of natives and Mussulmans, whioh tho Government wished to Balter to obtain loans from them. “ 5.T0 the tendenoyto seise hold of the fortunes of Rajahs and millionaire nabobs.' “ 0. To a false application of what the Govern ment pleased itself to style philanthropy. “ 7. To the licentiousness of the native press “ Let us now examine each of these causes *. ‘ ‘*l, Tho Government of the East Indfa'Com pany has annexed, without any reason, and must unjustly, tbo Kingdom of Oade to Us territory. This false and clumpy policy aroused tho indigna tion of the whole of that rich and populous country, and the sepoys, who belong chiefly toOude and tbo neighboring countries, took up arms for the cause of thoir King. “ A groat number of other doposed princes aud princesses arc actually receiving ponstons from the company, but as it always endeavors to find means to reduoo its expenditure, by pretending that the women and heirs are not legitimate, it has created a general common feeling of discontent among them, which has made them the sworn enemies of the Government, and actual events have proved (bat^these Kings ami princes aro at tbo hozd of a portion of tho conspiracy which has broken out. The Government has taken advantage of this to shut up the King of Onde and his Prime Minister as prisoners in the fort of Calcutta. It will act likewhio towards many other princes now re ceiving pensions, and thus will save many lacs of rupees. •‘ 2. A law has been prepared, and is, it is said, on the ovo of being passed, to prevent Rajahs ami other Indian millionaires leaving their property to indirect heirs; thus, tbo possessor of only 1.000 rupees may leave thmu to his nephews and nieces, but any one possessing ten lacs or more can only lo&vo them to the honorable East India Company. “ This Inw, if wo are to bolievo tho natives, was framed with a view to tho eveutual death of cer tain Rajahs who have no legitimate children, es pecially to that of the Rajah of Bnrdwan, who pos sesses millions. This measure, it appears, in no manner pleased him, for he is one of the individuals compromised in the present movement. As regards tho women, rightly or wrongly, public rumor pre vails that tho Government put them to death to avoid paying their pensions. A journal speaking of the rents of Mazpooro, said last year that they had beoQ sent to a pestilential residenco that the payment might stop. “ 2. Tho Qorernwont broke its word towards Ibe army. It had, in fact, promised to tho men that 1 they should not erosi tho sea; now, in the llurme*e i war it ordored four regiments to embark. The first ordeT was disobeyed. The troopi had right ' on their side, yet they wero decimated and fired ujHin by English cannon. At the time of the Sikh war tho army refined, at* a critical and decisive moment, to cross tho Sutlej without a hattu. The gonerals wero obliged to givo in, and a batta win grnntod. Wbon Ondo was nnuovcd, tho Govern ment, then in strongth, declared that tho batta 1 should ceaso to bo paid These facts, added to the discontent caused by the greased cartridges.brought . about with tho gold of the Rajahs and of the Kings, . the present revolution in India. “4. The Company’s Government, despito its in -1 credible resources, has always gone beyond its > means, and has consequently been compelled to contract loans. Its debts actually amount to $5,- 000,000 sterling. It was necessary to eajolo or flatter a certain rich class iu India, and to succeed, 1 under tho mask of philanthropy, native uiagis- I trates, judges, and official secretaries wero appoint ed. Tneao situations only doubled the hatred of the Mussulman against •* tho deg of a Christian and, though making, money, tho Government by no means advanced the welfare 6f tho coun try. “ The Bengalee is a liar and a thief by his reli gion. Now, if you boat him or accuse him on lo sing some article or other, ho leaves you, and brings an action for his wages. The jndgo, who is also a Bengalee, gives it against you, having probably received a douceur, aud the Govern ment approves it because the court expenses aro paid. “ The result of all this is a general state of dis content among every class, whether whiteor h lack, Mohoinmedan, Hindoo, or Christian; hence the causo of revolution. “ 7. The license abused by tho press in a country dissatisfied with English rule must havo hastened tho present outbreak. “Tho false philanthropists of India, under the masks of missionaries—Jesuits disguised—ha>o at tacked all white officials, and declared themselves the friends of their black brothers. To them must bo attributed the stories of torturo on the high- minded Bengalee. These discussions have tended much to lower tho Governors of India in tho opin ion of tho nativos, who have gradually acquired a eompleto contempt for Europeans Tho Guvernor- Genoral is not oven excepted. A Government thus molested losos all dignity and respect, and, what is more, credit; tho last loan finds no response. The signature of the Governor-General is not worth that of tho smallest banker in tho baiaar. “On tkoir part, tho Bengalese havo abused tho liberty of tho press to mako proclamations against the Government, to stir up regiments in the names of ohl dynasties, and to preach open re\olntion, while the missionaries, up to their work, converted colonels ami generals to thoir own ways, who at tempted to read sermons to and to mako Christians of sumo of their men. The grcn&cd cartridges eaino as a finisher—so much so that ou tho one hand tho dethroned kings and tho deposed llujahs, and on tho other hand the soldiers who supported tho Government, and finally the people, imbued with a natural hatred of a Christian, only enter tained one idea, one wish, one will —revolution and tho blood of tho wbito man. “Tb©Uovcrnmenthasatla a .tappreciated tho im mensity of tho evil. Onions have been sent to stop the troops for China Bombay, Madras, and Colombo send what troops they can dispense with. “ On tho other hand, the internal Government is takiug tho following severe and'energotio mea sures: “ I. Aholil ion of tho freedom of the press through out India. “1?. Imprisonment of all suspected kings and Rajahs. “3. Embodiment of thn militia at every station. “ -1. Fifty rupees for every dcsorler caught. “5. Abolition (projected) of overy nativo school of tho Government. “6. Proclamation of mnrlial law with all its ri* gore. “Will these measures save India ? Never. They will Increaso llio haired of the black against tho white. That will bo the only result. “ Tho only moasuroa to bo adopted aro tho fol lowing : “ 1.
