ads a specimen of the'rn.therdficent administration
in the world, we have only to ricer to the villanters
conduct of Ilesting,one of the early Governors Getter
al, xiwards the Reps of Benares and the Nabob ef Atle.
A ttibute was demanded of the former, ref 'being nt
ceived into the protection of the Ca:ripens,' and en
annual subsidy insisted upon besides, which lie paid;
with a stipulation that it should not be asked tante;
huttrue to English, honor and faith, it was demanded
the following year, and refused by the Itett Hast
ings sent an army to force the payment, and it flue of
..£'2ooo sterling Was imposed spun the Rojo to pay the
troops far the trouble of beating him. In the third
year. the same remonstrances were repeated, in vain;
the Raja's agent paid to Hastings two kites of nerves
as n present or bribe; bia the zontribution - Was nester.
thelese anforced. anda new fine often thousand pounds
enforced; Hastings resolved to treat the finju as a re
fiactory rebel; proceeded to Benures, refused to ad-1
mit the Raja into his presence, and finally gave orders
that -he should be arrested as a delinquent; the people .
of Bemires rose in defence of their chief forced their
way, into the Pnluce, destroyed the greater part of the
Seapoys and officers who had him in custody; during
the confusion, the Raja escaped.
Hastings attempted to recover the Palace, was de•
rented_ with great loss, exposed to great personal dam
ger, but ,effected his escape to Chuuar. The war
which env*, was short—the Rajah was conquered
and driven to Bundlecund, leaving his wife and
treasure to the mercy of the English. Hastings next
turned his attention to the Nabob Or 01140, Wi1.15 ,
I payments for the support of English troops in his
own country had fallen in armour. 'lt is notorious,'
says Fin4is, 'that the English army had devoured
hie revenue and hit country under the pretence of de
fending it. The debt demanded was a million and a
half of.peends, which he was.compelled to pay. Who
that has read the history of all these atrocities. does
not remember with indignation and diegnst, the dia•
bolimil conduct of that Governor Genernltowardy the
Princesses Begun], relatives of the Nabob, who had
inherited immense wealth from the former •Nabobil—
Hustings was determined to possess himself of, their
treasure, and agreed to release the Nabob from the
expense of maintaining the British troops, provided
he would strip those ladies of their riches and give
them:to hitn,-which was refund with contempt.
The English troops, accompanied by a scamp named
IVlirldleloma creature of the Governor, went to the
restrinte of the Princesses at Fyzabad, stormed the
. .
town and castle , took possession of one of the puke
ces and .blucked up the other; Middleton seized the
principal agents and favorites of those ladies. put them
in irons, and ordered thorn to be kept withnut food
until the Princesses lied surrendered their measure; by
these means, more than half million of pounds was
Mooned from them for the use of the East India Corn
party. More, however, was required—the prisoners
were detained several months in close confinement,
menaced with torture, and corporeal punishment mobs
bly inflicted. At last, when those fiends in human
shape could get no more, they set the prisoners at lib
erty, and then said that the joy with which they were
received by their friends west a proof that the bad no
terninn to 'complain of the treatment received. Ad.
tied to - all this, Hastings received a bribe from the
Nabob of a hundred thousand prior's, and requested
the Directory of the CoMpany to allow him to keep
it as a reward for his serviees. Such are the facts,
which, though quoted front memory, will be found sub
stantially correct, on looking at the history of the then
times.
Add this Province — of the Punjab. to the recent

PIinPoSI,DSTEAII ARMADA FOR I HY. CitlLr .1F MI , X'
COI —A •theme for cnnstrticting n certuin number of
arm-d .team vet 'els, to be called the “Pulley Steam
Fleet," intending to. issue ft urn the Missia4ippi and op
erate in the Gulf of Mexico, offensively and defensive
ly, has,it lo said, been before the Government for some
time. In regard to the details of this proposition. the
Nevi. Orleans Commercial Vimcs multes the follow-
ing statement;
"It appears that it has been proposed to construct
a dozen iron steamers, of such megnittele that they will
each present a battery on one deck—to use the words
of the pr' jecter—"moro formidable than that of the
Pennsylvania shipofilte-line." These vessels will
have a draft of water sufficiently small to admit of their
crossing the bar of the Mississipi, and pats in and
out eight Sothot ti harbors with /qui! facility.
'1 heir capacity will he 3,900 tons each; being 500
lions :greater than that of the ' , Great. .Beitain," at
present the largest steamship in the world. They
cannot be sunk by she:; are capable of carrying pro
visions and water for six months, for a crew of 700
men, and in case of offensive operations being decided
on, nre susceptible of receiving each 10 000 troopsan
hoard. Such a fleet, with the pnwerful armamentde
signed for it, would command the Gulf ageingt the
combined navies t f the world, end would throw, if
necessary, 120,000 men on any point—Cube, or the
uditcent foreign islands—skirt the highway of com
munication between nor Atlantic cities of the Repub
lic, and make the Gulf as much our propel ty as If it
were a lake within our territory. 'The Valley Fleet'
would form an invulnerable `line of battle' for its de
fence across the Strait of Fonda, and command the
rear to their place of construction and supplies, viz:
the Valley of the Mississippi• The plan is u magni
ficent one, worthy the great Republic; and although
many, no doubt, will hastily take it as the dreamy
wanderings of a heated imagination—an army of 120
000 men, borne by a fleet of twelve iron steam vessels
—yet has it been so far proved feasible, that there is
now a. m odel of a vessel, of this precise description,
at Pittsburgh, which dares the scrutiny of the most
I intelligent, the most enquiring, and the must acepti-
I cal."
Married iVamen.—A law recently passed by the
Ohio Legislature, having in view the protection of the
rights of married women, contains the following among
other provisions:
1. The real estate ( - tithe wife; whether inherited,
Given, or devised by deed or in trust, is protected in
all forms against the creditors of the husband—not for
the wife only, but. for the heirs'of her body.
2. The personal property, such Stocks, Money, &c.,
(which the husband bee nut actually converted to his
own use) is protected against his creditor*,
3; The Furniture end tloushold goods boughtwith
the money of the wife, or given, or devised to her use,
cannot be taken fordebts contracted by the husband.
4.. rho interest 'of the husband in the estate of his
wife cannot be conveyed, except by Deed, properly
acknowledged, &c.
This Act, however. does not take effect against the
debts contracted during the, marriage of the wife, and
cefuro the passage of this Act.
