Mr. LABOUCIILKE said that be had received no official account of the transaction to which his boa and gallant friend had referred, but be had received several private let ters stating whit bad token Owe.

It was quite true, from what he bad seen in those private letter, that very intemperate language had been used, and scenes of excitement had weaned in the louian Assembly, but no formal resolutim had been come to of the description adopted on former occasions.

LAIMUCHERE Asa ha 'had no information to that amt. Ir7DIA. Sir J. PAKISiGTON wished to ask the noblo lord oppo• tits whet her there wag ar.y truth in the rumour that tele graphic nora had been received from India. Lord I`A EMERSION said the gover ment bad received no telegraphic information, and were quito ignorant of any haring attired. when Lord Melent' gave us his pereosal eeperiences en the seam subject , even since the time when Colonel Jacob pub lished the pamphlet to which I have referred, the condition oldie Bengal troops Las, I believe, nut improved, but de teriorated, end tho mievancee, or Shand grievances, of the wry, instead of dimitialeing, have, perhothes, increased. I think, then:terra that it is unnecessary for um to enter into the teleilion, wheeker that army won over car under carmen ; that it is unnecessary fur me to prove that the officers were, in too many cams, mexperienced or incompecteut ; that they ware ignorant of the language, mid too fuquently cots tempts ccv of the usages of the country. I ehiuk the home will agree with me, that it is not necessary for cue to enter into the question of the pay, the penebee, and the furlough of the spot, of his foreign service or of his general service; and one retain which has induced me not to enter into details on this bench of the question is that I on. persuaded—and it will tau my duty to-uight to endea vour to convince the houne—that the eonduct of the Bengal troop in revolting against ties authorities was that of nisi who wore not so muds the avengers of pro motional mien , - SANS SS the exponents of general diecouteut. (Hear, hear.) I shall show, or audeavour to show, the home that our govern ment in India of lan years Ma produced Menai iou—l shall show or endeavour to show it that throe mutual Auspicious and prejudices between rival religions and different cocoa which before Were the t - mutes of Fes -rogation ;mkt powerful chutes iu that country have of late yews, in consequence of our paltry, grodetally disappeared, and that fur there has been substituted an iden tity of sentient, and that sentiment, I net wary to ray, one Motile to our rule. I shall have to chow the house how these feelings have bel to eumnembetion be tween cisme that never miteinenicated before. I sluff have to awl , how conantunicatien under such cirettromences led to . '1 tee have Sts , show bra/ 16610011414.111111110Lw tive class in India, the army, disciplined by our enemy and exertion', was the list drawn into the vortex. I shall leave to show that for a conedderable period of time the state of India was ono of onemeing centimetres, only awaiting an evasion and a pretext; and I shall have to Abort how the icresion was supplied, and how the pretext Will invented. But before I touch upon that point, let me remark that although it is my intcution to refer to no document to-night except ter authority, them is one peseage in a meet imperteet Indian document to which I ought here to refer. The Meuse is familiar with the minute which win laid on the table in the year 1846, which ie in fact a history of the government of India under the late °overflew- General. It mashies of 41 pages and 180 paragraphs; it touches en every theme one would suppose that eight years of energetic government could supply. Here we are told of the kingdoms which under our government were added to the dominion of the British crown. There was no subject too high or too insignificant to he treated of. The minute epeaks not only of annexations of territory but of the entatliehment of railroads end tele graphs. No subject is omitted except one, on which wo ell desire infiermation. When the recent intelligence arrived I wee minima to recur to this minute, in ceder to entertain the opinion of the late Governor-General m to the stare of the Mengel army and the ludian army, gene rally, when he mired from his long vice-royalty. Mere am 44 mgrs and ISO paragraphs in which I found to my sur prise, when I cern/emit theta, the Indian army never ap pears. There is no subject which can poesibly Interest us, no incident of any impumanee that occurred, which ie not here commeniorated and commented upon, but the state of the In dine army I could en Meet At last I found a peragnipti— paragraph which the condition of the Euro pean soldier is treated of, and though that was not the soldier with respect to whom I wanted inE er matims, the Aubject was under the cirennotiencet one of cum pastes interest. Unler the head of "The European Soldier," I tunnel mention of improvements in barrecks, and of the difference in elevation between the mountain and the plain, such topics Ming Peteleal open with a enlicitude that roan et tee tee, much praised. Under the wants bead of " European Soldier,' there being m e re than 20 pemscreepla properly devoted to that important subject, I found an inci dental notice of the native soldier in India, and it is as fol lows " The position of the native moldier in India hes long been ouch as to have hardly any circumstance of his condi tion in need of improvement. I thought it right in touching upon the condition of the Bmgal army and after adverting to the opinions of Metcalfe a nd Napier, to cite the highest autherity on this subject ; and themfore it is that I have eited that paragraph in the minute of Lord Delhouaiu. Sir, I now proceed to lay be fore the hone the remons end farts which I have a few minutes ago stinted to the house. Of late years a very great cheep hits taken plans in the government of India. In former dame and for a considerable time—indmd I may say until the Settee yarn—the principle on which our govern ment in India was rastalliaherl was, ill may venture to de scribe it in • phrase, that of respect for nationalities. We often talk now of our conquest of India, and teernetimes it ie said that it is necessary to reconquer it. The conquest of a country having a population of 110 millions of people, of warlike habits in many instance., could st no time have been an easy achievement, and its difficulty mutt certainly he in created after what has occurred; and therefore I think It is important that wills regard to the conquest of India we should have as accurate notions as pomeble. I deny, ce rir, that in the ntenary sense of the wont. we have conquered India. (Ile ar, Lear.) There have been military agaire very frequently, steuetiusee on a great scale, in shirts we have borne part ; the annals of our warfare in India are glorious meals; there have been signal victories and brilliant rain psigns that we can appeal to; we have often conquered powerful sovereign, and baffled skilful and vim - etas con federacien; bat still our eonqueet of India in the main has been a conqueet of India in the same sense that William of Orange conquered England. Wo have been called is—this happened very frequently in die earlier periods of our Indian rule—by a pepulatem mitering under tyranny; we have en tered kingdorna and principolitiee to protect their religion and their property. Yon will find, Mr, in tracing that wonderful of humnn events, that when we have occupied a ram: en eempation her been preceded by • solemn procla mation, sad concluded by a sacred treaty, in which we un dertook to ranted the rights and privileges, the laws and cuetoens, the property and the religion of the nation whose affairs we were prepared to administer. That is the principle upon which our 'copse woe founded; and I am bound to my it is• proud se well sa • politic peasege in the bakery of Engliehmen that that principle has Leen until late yeses religiously observed in India. All the gnat Indian states men—l am not now talking of politicians who have gone out her tie temporary goveenseent of a prettidenry, but of men like Malcolies'ancclfetenlfe, and Mountettout Elphinstone —hove niaintained that that wm the proper principle to be carried out. Our empire in India was indeed rounded on the old principle, " Divide et inipera ;" but that principle was put into emersion, not through any Machisivollien vices, but timely by taking advantage of the natural—and, if I racy use the expression, the spantaseraus—circumetancee of the erne in which we were acting a part. There were in India so many independent Motets oecupied by so many different rare, there were so natty religions, and even so many Linemen, that if yen religiously performed the engagements you had entered into, it would be totally impossible to raise a cembination thatwould overwhelm you. Why do Mahometnn dynasties fall ? Theta° principal causesof their fall were that they per ms-alai the people whom they had conquered, on account of their religion, sad that when their treasuries had become empty, they oontlicatted the land of the pmprietors. Eng land came forward with a guarantee in reference to the bend, mad a solemn engagement not to tamper with the religion, and it was by • policy founded on throe principles that the !Mien government was established. Indeed, all the great leen= authorities have recognieed in the exietemee of nen." states a memo not of embermaiment bet of security to Eng land. They have locked upon them, to use an expression of one of our most eminent English statesmen, as the safety valve of our empire. But, Mr, of late years a new print*e eppears to have . bem Adopted in the governm en t of India. If the old principle by which the Indian empire was created and catebliabed, and which prevailed until very recently, was respect for nationalities, the new —the principle of the new—system seams to have been the remote of this, end that principle easy be described as one which would destroy nationehtiee. (bleat, hoer.) Now, sir, everything In India has been changed—laws, m inners custom*, and wages, political orgaramtine, the tenure of property, the religion of the people, have all been changed or attempted to be changed, or it ha. been eappossd by the population to be the intention of the government that they should change. Taking the last ten years I would range under three beads tho v.erious canoe which have in my opinion led to recent meats. I shall endeavour to show the calms which have led to a general discoetent poem all classes in diet country with our rale, and I would state them them:—First, our forcible destructke of native authority; secondly, our dieurbances of the eattleraerit of property; and thirdly, our tampering with the religion of the people. (Hear, hear.) I believe that all the principal cams of public discontent and pronto. diAturbance in India will be found, directly or indirectly, to fame themselves under those three heed's, and to these I will now address myself,—Under the Bret head the right honourable gentlemm then referred to what he termed the sew policy of the annexation of states oa the ground of the failure of natural heirs, although adoption was sanctioned by the Hindoo and he wpecifisd verticals instances, including those of the wall-blown IWalt of fisttarah and the Rajah of &Tar. Throe violations of the Hindoo law, be observed, shook the confidence not only of princes, but of large and powerful partite. This led him to the second beset, and he argued that as the law of sdreption applied to landed proprietor', oar new 'system touched all jakhiradars and possessors of ream land,.

The government had further reduced guarenteed pensions by curtailment and cranyerilem into All these proceedings had, he said, estranged numerous dames from our authority.

Who would have supposed that when we fleet heard of the rude relit of • Russian sailor from a port in the Bleck Sea to Comtantinople we were on the eve of the want of modern ware, and en the eve also of one of the most difficult problems? and so whoa a few months mu a paragraph appeared in our journals of the mutiny of *mem regiment in India, I dare say that very few people read that paragraph. I dare my they tamed fur ammement to the MOM meting diaccunions in this hues; and if the proceedings of the Ileum of Commons this year bore not afforded than them resources, I dare say that they were mote interested ie. the startling differences of the polite offices. But, air, I hese always thought if man kind could only bring them/wives to ponder in time on the commencement of those events that greedy affect their fortunes and destiny, it la possible that we might bring to transactions of various kinds more prudence and wore energy than are generally brought to bear at the ecinimencement of each incident., and that we might prevent many public diseaters and calamain. It was with that feeling that when the brat news arrived of the capture of Delhi by the rebels I thought I was rely per forming any duty in attire...Mg atom inquirisa to her Ma- Joey's ministers ea to their opinion with raped to the cause Either* remarkable event., and the exact position of affairs. I am bound to gay that at the time the sneerer which 1 re ceived impressed etc with the feeling that her Mojeety's ministers did not view what had occurred in that spirit which I thought Raiment important , . demanded. The house will recollect on that occasion what was the infornettion afforded us by the government. The eight hon. gentlemen told the house that the Governor-General of India wrote in very good spirits, and that her Mejeaty's government hoped and treated—nay, believed—that by the next mail we slip 1d hear that the city of Della had been razed to the ground, and in order to afford that test of truth and el damp, which la no thoroughly appreciated by the inhabitants of the British Isles, we were told to leek at the state of the public se enden Re were told that Mocks et Calcutta bad' not fallen—cm the eirstram I believe had rather riern ; and the inference to be drawn from that circurintance was, that the danger wee wither profound nor extensive. Well, the tone taken in the other hems of parliament by the leader of the government there was not dissimilar. That noble lord informed the country that the government were Dirty taken by surprise both there sad in India, and that four-and twenty hours before the news of recent events arrived, they did not suspect that inythhig was wrung. In that rieseratty, moreover, which Is always considered to be peculiarly con nected with landed property, the fund test was also applied, and when, in reply to the inquiry whether the public so- melte. bad fallen in India, it DA* elated that they had not, the answer was received with marks of approbation. One ought not to view with tio critical severity the first ex premiime of the government on tee OCCUITPDOII of each events that I fully admit; but when the government bad had the advantage of being in formed, not merely by telegrapb, but by the despatches, of all that had happened; when they had had time to consider these events; when several evened., anxious ones, I have no doubt, had been held, ten days, in short, after the fret notification of what bad averred in India, the bows was favoured by a greet ofilleer of elate, ono of the principal members of the cabinet—incidentally, I mime, but still on the occasion of • debate having some reference to India—l mean the debate on the l'enien war—the house wan then favoured, I say, with the natured opinion of the cabinet on thews great events. The Chancellor of the Ex chequer informed the house that the revolt of the Bengal army IV. • 'redden impulse occasioned by a auperetitious feeling; and it was ekes. from the general tone ofthe govern ment, and from the expression of persons of authority who, if net members of the guserninent, exercise great influence in this house sad are &tenant the prin cipal supporters of the goverument, that the conduct of the native troops in India was Imbed upon by the government as merely a military mutiny. (Hear, hear.) That was, I think, an elements which was used en 'het occasion. Now I apprehend that it nee the greatest importance that we should have as clear an idea as we can of the cave of these event.. I said en the neemionto which I have just referred that I thought we ought to be favoured with the opiaion of the government on that subject. When the cause alleged by the government ap peared to to be insufficient, I 'maimed to intimate that I - thought it wee the paramount duty of parliament to investigate the causes, tf they deemed the OW alleged by the government uneatiefeetory. Boma objection was taken to that course. It we, said that this being a military mutiny, what we bad to do was to pat it down, and when we had done that we might mender the condition of India. Now I humbly think that the question whether it le a military mutiny is one of primary importaace. (Hear.) Is it a military mutiny or is it • national revolt ? Is the conduct of the troops the cousequenm of • madden impulse, or is it the result of an °manned conspiracy? The ! house must feel that upon a right appreciation of that tome, the greatest of all questions. nearly, the measures which the government ought to adept and which parliament ought to sanction, entirely depends. (Hear, hear.) The measures which may be adequate in the case of a military mutiny may not be adequate to cope with a natinnel revolt ; the treasures which mey be perfectly sufficient in dealing with conduct ' which is the consequence of • sudden impulse may he totally ineufficient in dealing with conduct which is the consequence of a conspirmy emir matured, deeply laid, and extensively ramified. (Hear, hear.) I therefore maintain that • right lien by this house of the eau se of the eresent Mate of nin India is a primary step, without which we rennet undertake or support any nissanme which may be brought forward for the of putting an end to the disorders that new I therefore, sir, would presume, with the hatelgaase et the house, to address them 'pea thews two point,.

Mr. V. SMITH could not help asking what was the nee of Mr. Disraeli'. three hewed oration, and whether there wee not very great mischief in bringing forward this subject the meaner he had done? He had represented the mutiny as a national revolt, but be had adduced no evidence to show that it was owing to national discontent. No native prince bad been concerned in it, and there wan not a shadow of evidence of say oommirney among the native prineen. The erects penned by Lord Delhousie in regard to adoption might be *lt or wrong, and before that question was decided the law et aracceation in each state must be inquired into; but this 'abject had no cennexion whatever with the revolt. With r geed to the disturbance of property there had been a com munism to inquire into enam lands, acme of which had been acquired by fraud sod corruption, and this may have crested a geed deal of discontent among certain el :saes. The inter heence with religion was a matter of immense delicacy; and be had no hesitation in saying that it would be tho beat policy at once to interfere end prevent the exercise of tniesimary Nal by our (evil and military servants. lie coincided with Mr. Disraeli entirely in thinking interference with the red, gine% of the mallet highly objectionable. On the subject of annexation, he wasi as enemy to systematic 'emery ion; but the question of Oude was tide: the subjects of Oude were kept in subjection by our force, and no made outeelvea re sponsible for everything the King did. Lord Dalhousie, therefore, thought it better to annex the territory, which wee done with the least possible injury to the parties con cerned. The attempt to connect this ante %are ei with the mutiny had completely failed. He denied that the go vernment had received any warning of the mutiny, or that there was the elightest indication of any disaffection among the native troops. If it was a military mutiny, it woe impossible to suppose there had not teem some Tab° management in the army. At Meerut three was no defici ency of European trier, and the first intelligence that are tired convinced him that there were a sufficient number to quell any mutiny, and ho was surprised at whet had occurred afterwards. Wrint occurred at Meerut N1.1...1 this. Eighty five men were condemned for disobey ins order., and were manacled in the presence of their comrades. Now if any suspicion had been entertained that those um ri&e would not submit to such a thing there ought to hare been a sufficient number of European troops to compel them, or the step ought not to bare been taken. Ho considered it altogether unaccountable that there bad been no pursuit of three teen over a line of road 35 miles in extrxt and n level as the floor on which he was them standing. lie could not help saying that he believed there must Lye been sense mismanagement is the a ffoir. (Hear, hear.) One of se Sir Principal emirs iSestiel for luutin'y wee 'lthe;itik drams' of officers for el and staff purpose.. That system had been rime on for 60 ears;y but last year, in order to obviate the difficulty, an additional captain had been sent out teach regiment. Many officers contended that the eysteiii which hart been so long in existence was perfectly defec ate, and that the parties thus .loru hel acquired a general knowledge which made them more useful. Besides, the presence of officers iu great nunkbers wo not &Imre con. eidered en advant•ge. It was not to the number of (Miners withdrawn that the evil was to be attributed. He believed that the natives were not so much impressed with the ides that we wanted to Christianise them as to de-narionitline and de-Indianise them. The position of parties had very much changed. Hohad Leon informedthat of late yearstherehad been a greet mermen between the officers and the men, that the tone of some of the officm at mess woo contemptuous., sad that they sometimes epoke k if the sepoya as " niggree." (" Hear, hear," and a laugh.) lie woe Oa to find that on a roma occasion the chairman of the East India C01111:40 V had strongly impressed this point open the minds of the young men whom he was addressing. There wee another matter which he had been informal did not a&ct the soldiers at the time—he meant the alteration of enlistment in the Bengal army. The alteration hai been made in the Bombt.y and Madras armies, and ho believed that no remniuktramw had been made against it in the Bengal army. The right hon. gentlemen had stated that Lord Canning bad given offence by objecting to certain proonseions. It any offence had been given Lord Canning had lately amply cnuiperated for it by slating his determination not to allow the process aion 11 of the natives to be interfered with, and he had put his veto on an act relating to the suburban police, whielk would have interfered with such pronessions. That was a step which nkfleeted the highest credit on the noble lord. (Hear, hear.) Under the art of 1863 • new legislative council bed born established, which was endowed with power. which did not exist before. That body had brought forward ukelostrce for the purpore of promoting European and English objects without any reference to the natives, and he trusted that what bad taken place would be a wars* to them not to meddle with the religion of the people.

Now, the kmvornineut had sent out sa many, or more troop than were naked for by the Go vornor-Cionend ; and tbo right hon. gentleman made a slight mistake in his calculation when lie withdrew the reliefs, for those who moire other circumstances would here ken relieved meld retrain, end, nmkingereryallowance, the actual number rent out would be 20,000 then—(hear)--and be had no doubt as they arrived portion after pillion, their appear ance would inaphe greet confide:we in the atm try. lu ludis the effect produced by European treys upon the Orientals was something tibia, could hardly c &elated, and a Eu ropean general might often set aside all notions of strategy and ordinary tautly warfare, and plunge into hazards which he would nut think it safe to run against other commies. Al iment every y„reat battle in India bed been gained by a Wind- IVI of nen, and is l'ersia an army of 7,000 fled before 40 of our troops. (" liter, hear," nod lauy,hice) The right hon. gentleman had recommended the pending out of a royal com mission, the shoat of which would be to supereedo the Governor-Oener.d. Now that would be a very bed begin ning. It would be a bed thing to dislodge and waive to em barrass any governor in whorl, trust wee placed. Now he did not believe any non could be more woiouily trusted than Lord Canning. He had not committed a single mistake, and where wheys had made mietakes he bad bed tbu vigour to correct them. Every art whialt he bad perfornwl dieplayed judgment ned viyour, and to send out a Colllll4oloft to supersede rich a Inn would be a molt fetal error. It would be untie not only towards hits but towards the public. l'he government had lb -mad it desirable to ask the Governor-Onneral whether h.. wiehed • commission to be appointed, atatiug that if he a com mittee of military or other essistante they should ho sent out immediately. (Hear, hear.) Ho would hem rewind the boum that in epe&king or the Queen's troop, the right lien. gentle man omitted to n.. 1 ire the fact that two regiments lied been stopped on their way to China, that 600 min had been ordered from Cey Lin, and two re ' ..imente front the Cape. With regard to • commission he thought it might be of great utility if issuc,i with the ronsynt of the Govereor-Oeueral. The matters for ' • 7e . re rrer , y t and . th9 rexof- dies not far our of our reach. The riglit gentleman said that the Queen'e name ought to he demoted with everything done in India, noel that the pr Ado might to he seemed that the Queen, whilst putting dent. the mutiny, wroth! at the same time exteciee merry unit humanity. '1 he people of India would trot doubt that fad for a single moment, whether the Queen's tamer was wed or nut. (Hear, boor.) But the right hon. gentleman ought ter reinembe in whose bands the government of India had been pined by Parlinmeut. Par liament had placed it in the hairdo oftbe East India Cowpony, controlled by the mown. That manure wan insunged by the legislature deliberately en • ,amore of caution. It any improvement was regainel in India what weir the usual °owe° I It woo first coulasunicated to the Prestdoc of the Presidency, and by him to the Governor-General. Teen the Governor-General sent it to the Legiabitive Counol, which required a coneiderable time for delibundisn. The next step was to refer it to the Collet of Directors, who bed too read all the papers. Then it wr at to the Board of Control, where all the papers had to be mad again. (Laughter.) That was ' the constitution which parliament had provided for India. All these transactions rowed great delay, but that wad • question for atcther time. (Hear, hear.) In referring to the Beard of Control au eminent authority bad stated his belief that throughout all India there was a thorough dis trust of the gentleman who new occupied the poaitian of President of dud Board. (Laughter.) That was the opinion of a nobleman whore authority on Indian matters woe joatly appreciated. That noble lord was, however, in the habit of IMlllte 101 l the dyspeptic grotto-men who came from India— (aughter)—and it was not surprieing that many of them should form a somewhat unfavourable opinion of the man whose duty it was frequently to retiree their applicatioes. But softie from entering into any dispute with the nnble lord, se long as he continued to give his advice and his admirable sugoestions for the benefit of our indian em pire, be would 'ten to him with the greatest deference and respn.t. and receive with good humour any comments which he might be inclined to make. (Hear, hear.) If a COEll• wissien ehouhl issue there were many important questions wiskili would come under ire consideration. Fist, there would be the perednent eetabliehment of the Queen's troops. The Governor-General bed tent home a deeper eh eqaesting that three Elmore= re,,eimente might be added instead of the six which had reroltel. The government were of opinion that the dellei:n.y must he eupplied by the Queen's troop,. (Hear.) Thee crone the quest Oru, were the native regiments to be abandoned He believed it would be impresario to govern India without native troop.. In that country there vas an army of 300,000 men. It would be quite impoesible to send any ouch number from this country. The rcorgiuri &Winn of the Indian troops must be attended to. That brought him to the consideration of the question Low are they remooesel P The army was composed of high dare iwipe, and particularly of brahruhur, whn, as belonging to the prieetbood, were • very objectionable body of men. Sir Churls, Napier had preposeel tbe enlienuent of various classes in the same togiment—for instance Sikhs, 'Undoes of the high and the low clearer, and of no close, at all. Three were all tniestiens which required great consideration, and tight to be immediately attended to, frr the purpose of effseitug en improvement in the Betigol army. At this time the Ltinnbay and Madras armies were perfectly sound end stench, and the men of those armies took their wives and &milieu with them into lino; but high claw does would not do so. If they employed n lower caste fee the army they might produce benefit iu that way, fo r no doubt wives and families in the line were a great preventive of mutiny. They might also employ irregular instead of regular cavalry. Lord Dalhoureo had recommended the adoption of that course, ad he had even advoceted the w ith drawal of two regiments of the Queen's troops. and that ir regular cavalry should replace them. The irregular cavalry had lien tewili realigned, but they had rendered good rerviee. Another question vu whether we ehould erui.ley native artillerymen ; and his own opiuion was theta it was a very dangerous thing In have native artillery men, and Ire touch doubled whether what web called the "black artillerymen" should be continued.
