The CHAIRMAN reported several sets of paper., alloyed for at the previou. Court, to have bees§ pre pared by order of the Court of Directors, sud now Intl before the Court. On the titles of papers relative to allowances, superanruatiotts, and grants, being rend— Mr. RIGBY said, that as it most be of essential importuner to the Prap►ietuss, to be acquainted with the contents of the several sets of papers, lie wished that they might be printed and disnihuted to the Proprietor., as was done by the House of Commons. Ile wiaheti t• know if any objection existed as to this course being taken. The CHAIRMAN said, the practice of printing papers was not usual. The papers ordered of the►u by the House of Commons were generally printed, mid the custom was to supply the Proprietors with copies on applying for therm In the mean time the pipers ordered by the Directors to he laid before that Court were kept open for the inspec tion of soy Proprietor who might wish to extuume them. Another Member suggested that a book, with an hides of mien-owe, "night to be kept iii the Pro prietors' room, w which all the paper,' ordered noel furnished should he described, by which means the object of each party would be secured, and the expense of printing saved. Mr. ItiGnv approved of the plan suggested, and recommended strongly its adoption by the Direc tors, as it was important that the Proprietors should have access to papers iu which they were so much iotereeteel. The CHAIRMAN mild (hut the by-laws allowed no such thing as 1,6111115 g. Gentlemen hied only to sek for information, and it would he funiislied. Mr. R. /ACHIM?' said, that those who knew the bulkiness of the papers generally, being aware therefrom of the expense as be was, would not he anxious to have them printed, especially as the courtesy of the Flouss of Commons went so far as to acme °date the Proprietors nth copies of such pipers as were ordered, and prisitrd by them. The plan of keeping a book its the mom set apart for the Proprietors, coot:mein. , a list duly atranged of the papers laud before th e Cowl, had his concur rence, and he had no doubt of its being imme diately c shied into effect by the Chairman. Mr. 1-lusut said, that he was not aware of any oltjecttott to the proposrd plan contained in the by-lows ; nor was there shy necessity for pre'- lasing a by-law for that purpose. The papers laid afore the Court were held to be open to the hispectsou oh the Proprietors. If the Court of Directors thought lit to yield the pro. used accom modation as to imprinted papers to the Proprietors, no one would have a right so object to it. The CHAIRMAN thought lie mutt have been mite understood. lie had noel that the by-laws did not allow the Directors to order the prisititsg of peepers. As to the book with an index referring to 'misers laid before the Cour!. it should be imme diately furnished. M r . Messy wished to I:04T how then they. the Proprideno, were to get, IteMll to the paper sf The CHAIRMAN said, t any of the papers The CHAIRMAN moved, that the Resolutiou of the Directors be adopted. Mr. Mime, after causing the original resolution to be read, said, that he would detain the Court but a few minutes on the subject. He never rose with feelings of greater satisfaction et the conduct of the Coon of Directors than be now felt. There was no question in the whole policy of the Com pany's afairs more deserving their attention. While England, and Europe generally, had *hewn them selves so anxious for the diffusion or education, it was astonishing to see the Company's indifference on the subject in those territories where they held eighty or ninety millions under their govern ment. The subject was of so much more import ance to them, as these means of education were to be applied to the minds of those who were to rule and direct the eighty or ninety millions held in sub. jection in India. It was a blot to those whose re sidence in India should hove taught them the im portance of the subject, that the present Chairman, not having been iii ludia,was t h e first who hadatten lively exerted himself for the purpose, by patroniz ing the cheap and easy method of Dr. Gilchrist, for diffusing education among the civil and military seivants of the Company, suitable to the duties inttesited to them. In 1805 a resolution passed, declaring it to be essential for the interests of the service, to have a plait of education adopted at the colleges, which would secure the servants of the civil departments a more adequate k nowledge of the oriental !engorges. He was sorry to say that the ample means furnished by the Company for that purpose had been almost all thrown away. By the accounts presented of the expenses of the year 1818.19, there were 52,8331. ex pended ; 27,0001. at the Bengal and Madras establishments, the remainder uu the colleges at home. This was more than enough money to have educated all the servants of the , Cotupaiiy who had gone out in the time ; and yet after the exp. tilliture of so much money, it ap peared that out of 6uo who left England, not more than one-sixth had toren qualified in any way with • knowledge of the casters languages. 'Plus was • misapplication of the properly of the Company.— He was happy to see that the plan of Dr. Gilchrist was to be enforced, and that by an expense of 350/. they trete likely to have the whole of the service, bush civil and iniliterv, duly educated be fore their departure in that must useful and import ant language, the liiiidutratoiree. Of un agregate of 434 cadets *rut out from Aediscoinbe there were 55 who were qualified with oriental education—the test were destitute of sue knowledge even of the rudiments of the languages, without which, how. ever, it was impossible that they could become effi cient and useful servants to the Company. lie appealed to the communicetions from, and remarks of, the Marquis of [Listings, Mr. Culbrook and the late Lord Mures, to show the necessity for the servants of the Company being accomplished in the dialects of Bengal and linidostaii, and the iiiconventeeee which arose from the greater part of them b wholly i4liorant of it. The Persian, Ilindoo, and Bengal tongues, which were necessary to qualify ihriii fur the civil service, erre neglected, while die Sanscrit and the Ara bic, which were wholly useless, were alone studied. Su perverse were the feelings and opinions on the subject of eastern education, that at Addiscombe, the plan of spelling the words in the oriental hinguages, invented by Sir Win. Junes, was still retained, though fur years it had been exploded in the India colleges to snake way fur the inure simple and comprehensive method invented by Dr. Gil christ, mid adopted by Marquis Wellesley on establishing the Beriberi college. He quoted the re rommendations made of the Doctor's system by Lieut. Irwin, Sir J. Mackintosh, Mr. Campbell, and other.. Notw it liatanding all that he had mentioned, at Addiscombe they continued the old system, though the books the students used there must be thrown away when they arrived in India, where nut one ii 300 book. but was printed recording to the system of Dr. Gilchrist. He trusted that the Di rectors would interfere and opply some of their laudable efforts to the correction of so obstinate an error. Coming hack to the Resolution before the Court, be expatiated on the great learning, honour able zeal, mid highly-useful exertiotis of Dr. Gil christ. by whom there was reason to hope, tinder the patronage of the Company, that the service would be improved in all theeisentiel particulars of orien tal education upon which he bad been dwelling. As a proef of ins talents, he mentioned that Dr. Gilchrist was the first translator of the articles of wiar into the Persian, the Company having ruled India for 50 years without letting the swhjewts know to whit laws they owed obedience. Not one alte►atina in the Doctor's trunslation had been tootle since the completion of the work. He commented on the great advantages to be derived to the stn• dente themselves, by being led under the guidance of such a preceptor, tip to the highest sonrees of oriential literature, fie haul token some pains to ascertain the number of cadets and military medical officers sent out to Win from the year 1793 to the year 1812, Need lie mentioned it for the purpose of showing that if those "arsons had all been instructed in the Hinton-temee language, almost all the officers employed in India in the last mentioned year would have been ■equsin'ed with the language. In the period which he hail mentioned there were 4.738 cadets and 59? Anisiant-Surgeons sew eareir:lssche, asaitior, in the whole 5 0 380 - 'At the expiration of the Cutttpsny's Charier NI . 181 e, the number of military officer* rem service was 3.467 ; so that if the whole of the ut►mher sent out from the year 1793 had been in structed in this manner, almost every individual officer remaining in the service in 181 , 2 would have been thoroughly acquainted with the language of the country. In the present year the number of cadets sent eat amounted to 496, of which 55 only had re ceived any education iii the Hindoostaiere language. Of the Europeans sent out to India in the year 1819, there were 165 who went out after receiving in structions from Dr. Gilchrist, at all expense of 2001., that were equal to the education given to twice that number who hail gone out without his Instructions. at II charge of 20,000/. a year. In the year 1820, there were !28 ; and the year 1821, 426 persons sent out : making a total in the three years of 619 persons instructed by Dr. Gilchrist. Those persons were not all of them in the Company's ser vice; but whether in the service of the Company, or in private service, it was to the interest and bene fit of the Company that all who went to India should understand the Hindoostanee language. It was iu•leed much to be lamented that many Europeans carried themselves in India with such lofty airs of superiority as not to give themselves any trouble or :ern whatever in acquiring the language of the country, and many unpleasant occurrences, some of a very disastrous nature, had taken place, which might have been avoided by a general knowledge of the language. He entreated, therefore, that the system which had been adopted with regard to the medical students, might be ex tended to the officers and servants of the Company generally. He saw an Hon. Director smile, but he begged him to observe that the knowledge they would acquire in the term of two months oceaspiad in attending a course of these lectures, would am- - ply repay them for any habits of dissipation into which they might be led in that period, and if the cadets found that a certificate of attendance for those two mouths was necessary towards proving their appointments. they would apply themselves with greater diligence to the study of the language. Besides, he had much rather that they should learn a little of the world, as much at least of such knowledge a• could be acquired by the two months' residence in London, which the eittendauce on a course of these lectures would require, would be far preferable to their hemp; shipped off, as be had known many young men, when they were, as it was termed, just caught, before they had been even twenty-four hours in London. lie thougbt it would be far better than to have them seed out, as at present, at an expense or 40 or 50,0004 a•year. Mr. Lows DEll—" 40 or 50,000/. ?" Mr. Hess —" Yes ; the last year's account states it at 53,0000 Mr. Lows Des- 1, Sent out at an expense of 53,0001. to get ate Asiatic education ?" Mr. Hume said. he should have no objection to the antenna if it were well applied ; but he thought the present seam quite enough. Dr. Gilchrist had before been authorised to demand three guineas from each studetot on his admisa* , but that lie bad declined to do lest he should thereby deter som e who might be willing and glerirous from attending his lectures through their inability to ;my the fee. The lion. Gentleman then proceeded to relate, us an Moaner of the disinterestedness of Dr. Gil christ, that the Marquis Wellesley, finding that by the services of Dr. Gilchrist a number of Moon sheer, or iseterpieters, could be dispeosed with, offered that Gentleman as a salary the amount of the allowances to those Mootishees so saved to the Com pony. but the latter declined to accept any greater salary than that assigned to the other piolessois. He (Mr. H.) should therefore recommend, that the whole of the cadets and other servants of the Company going nut to India should beobliged to attend Dr. Gi lchrist's lectures, and thut each person so attending should pay one guinea, to be at the disposal of Dr. Gilchrist. The sum thus raised, with the allow ances already made, would form an income of about 8 or 900/. a-year, and for that sum the Compuny would have the whole of their servants educated sufficiently to go upon their vova{,•e, in the course of which they might so improve themselvea as (la obtain a great proficiency in the language before they arrived in the country. lie agreed most fully in the Resolution, and hoped that with the amend ment he had suggested, it would wove a most be utficial measure. Mr. li*tilPau JACICSON said, that distinguished as his H 0,,. Friend bud ever been for his correctness of re.earch and the usefolsiers of the proplisals lie from time to time brought forward. never had lie made a more successful appeal to the reason mod judgment of both sides of that bar than on that day. in enforcing the utility of educating the whole of the servants of the Company in ludic, previouvly to their selling out from tins country. in the Ifni doostanee language, the medium of communication of the officer with the soldiers under his command, of the medical man with the patient under hiscare, and of the civil servants of the Company with the natives of the district in which they were employed. He fully concurred in all the arguments and views of his lion. Friend on this subject, and he bore him vut to the fullest extent in his eulogies of the still, Mr. LOW N DES, at some length, enforced the uti lity and advantage of all the servants of the Com pany being well instructed in the Ilisidoostanee lan guage. It was of the greatest consequence t h at military meu should speak the language of the country where they had to fight their bsttlet. It was of the utmost importance, too, that young men who went net to ludls should speak the language in its purity ; but such was the high opinion he et,- tertained of the exalted talents and ability of bur W. Jones, that lie should be ye:l - y loth to chauge his system of teaching it for any other, until riper rience should prove that the system of Dr. Gil christ was superior. Mr. HUME begged that he might not be under stood ss having raid that to no instance had the flindoostattee and Persian languages been taught in the colleges, but only that those latigurizes hid out formed, as they ought to have dour, a promi nent part of the education of the btudtists in those colleges. The DEPUTY CHAIRMAN defended the system of instruction pursued at the colleges, and strongly objected to compelling young mend ust caught. as It had been termed, to spend two months ill Lou— don !rehire they embailsed for India, as likely to induce habits of dissipation, extravagance, and in dolence, and to involve them In heavy and rui.icruir ex penses. Mr. EDMONSTONE said, no man was more fully convinced of the great merits of Dr. Gilchrist than he was, and it would be difficult for hint to express his sense of the exulted settlers of that gentleman in stronger terms than he had already used on former occasions, trod in public documents to which allusion had lweu made. Ile dial nut, however, feel the force of the objection %%loch in Honour able Proprietor had made to the wording of the Resolution. Thee:permit-lit who lt it recommended to be repeated was nut of Dr. Gilchrist, nor of his mode of teachiug the I lindstrostasoce language; the merits of both had Leen sufficiently tried, were well ascertained, and on all hands admitted. Hut it was far otherwise with the system of these lectures on the Hinduostanee iu Losatoo; that system was but recent—there was little doubt but that some advantages would be derived from it, but the extent of those advasitagtai could not us yet be well ascertained, and istioil they were fully deve loped, the system could only be tecutinutioded as one of experiment. The question was now about to Le put, when a person, whose name we uudeoatood to be Structre, rose fur the purpose ref stating what be termed a ease of unexampled grievance, but bring att.. d the Chairman whether he was a Proprietor. s• .1 answering in the negative ; he was informed that by the Act of Parliameut, lie could not be allowed to speak in that Court. and was recommended to sub unit his case to the Chasitnian in private, or to the Court of Directors.
