This. coneln ni the ,accounts of tbe Company 14e,profits both from the India were collectively detailed. ' The :en years was to chew upon the kerns of the Company; after all deducted, a profit ,of 6,200,004 had rc..ison to doubt that some deducted ; and this he would no when the oCca! ion presented it .de to India the 1)1'014 w.as Otte to 'China 18;200,0001.

CoMpany it It wished. In the view lie took , ts by no m eans . sat-leine i . ert d a - 4 vantage. s at first. thought it very probable that the first opening of the trade would cause embarrassments,. similar to thoSe which marked the commencent of our in tercourse with South America, and,: indeed, with almost .every. country when first explored. It was common - for .ex i teetations to be entertained, which faets 'not justify, and disappointanent was tare consequence. This, he thought, might , he, expected in the _present case, on the trade being; first opened, but eventually he ttustedi: the measiire would prove beneficial to the conn ti•v: He now came to speak of .. the territorial concerns of the Company. From the best view which lie hadbeen.,.enabled to talc'e of this part of the subject, he was,satisfied that in ‘vhatever hands the concern might remain, as if ''tvic; not so ad vantageous to the .countrs us it might be, thytigh Ire saw nothing in.. the.,effairs of the East. India Company at home or abroad to justify despon dency, but on the' contrary thought they mised much prosperity; yet still be felt tly some . substantial retrenchments in their expences, par s , Ocularly abroad, must be , aecomplisned, to gi_ye the Company and.the Country that-benefit which they ought to derive from their territories in the •East. It was highly gratifying- to him to state, that. - sinee the Conintittee on the affairs of,:the Company closol their arduous .htbouss, the ac 7 Counts received from India had .been extremely -satisfactory. The COmmittee had not Calculated that than 300,0001. could be expected as the surplus - revenue of the last year. The surplus hail. amounted to 1,500,0001. giving an excess beyoid the slum calcidated - upon by theCounnittee of no lesS than 1,200,0001. "'The prOdirce Of the next year-was not expected to equal that of the last. - 7 s-.. It was thought in the present year,. the surplus would amount to 1,000,0001.; but in in4king out the official estimate it was• not felt justifiable to set down more than 560,000/. The 240,0001. to be paid ~on account of the last loap, ,added to •900,0001. which. was called for, make it neces sary to set down more than 1 . ,000,000/. to meet their territorial.expenees ; and• he therefore con tended, that retrenchment in tllCr expences must be attempted. Ile hlped measures had been taken for reducing the Coi tretny's debt. He would not at present revive the call on the Gompany for 50(1,001)1: tri the Country annually. This !nut been: (he thought improperly), held out to the Ptiblhs,, while the Company's debt rentaiped nose dticed. He thought it wise to abstain front making this demand on the part of the COmpany, till the debt of the, East India Company was :reduced Within those limits which he thought ought to confine it., The sat,(phiS of the Coinmercial ,Fund ought to be appropriated to this purpose.. When the debt Was so far liquidated as he COTlteMied it Ought to be, this fund shooldaccumulate' tilt it amounted to 12;000,000/, This otight to he deposited with the public, as 'security 'for the ca pital of the CoMpany, and any surplus that might arisealitsve that, it would he proper to &- Vide as formerly; one-sixth port of such surplus being set &Tart for the use an:l benefit of the 'Coin pany ; the . , remaining five-sixths to he given to the. Public. He hoped the Cotirt of Direetins would give their attention to ,this subject.. it was necessary to lone: to the character,in which ships built ;n 'lndia were, hereafter to be consHered. in, looking to this part of the subject, it must be seen, that our territories in' the. East ledies could not be viewed as precisely COlOnial.._ They bore a distinct character, card as the character to be af fixed to ships built there w is a subject which ,he wished to leave open to the fit tyre regulatiOns of Parliament, in the first iustance he %vould not be justitied'in pt•npoiag ;hore,than that India built ships should be employed in the coinut ! ..ree be tween this country end Ind:it-on/the part of the East India Company, or on that of private indi viduals, but' under certain regulations. Ilethought by their' action they would` defeat the 'object they had is view, if they crippled either party in their means of panning these ships, and said no ships built in India should be employed indess 3-4lths of their crews were English, differeot line of par liey could be resorted to in time of peace without inconvenience. We might, indeed, in his upir niori, make our commerce with India of great ad- Vantage to us as 'a nursery for seamen, which could be let loose on the enemy its time of w,c, their ,place being ,then supplied by Isascars. branch of the subject appe ;red to him 'to have been: so much overlooked, as this. Our.. Indian. commerce might,' lie thought, be made a great miss - cry for seamen. At a future opportupity he should propose certain regulations, the object' of which would • be to,P brig; ake all vessels bri ing Lascars to this country furnish a reasona ble provision for the , comfort of those per sons while here, and finally carry t hens back to their own country. On the, subjeet .of the gratuities granted by 'the Company to their mili7 Lary' and conimercial servants, he should have some regulations to propose. This he thou fit neees sary, for, as things stoodatpreSent, though 'they could not grant a pension of moret;oni a certain value, tlwy couldgive what they pleased, might at present 117a4e a grant of 100,0001. to an though they had not the power of granting a pension of 3001.. per annum. So long as it was thought fit by Parliament that the India GoVernment should remain it it is, they ought to be careful to do nothing to 'mver, itsconSequence ; hut, on the contrary, ought t) uphold its import ance as much as possible, • and this.led him to sneak of the native wallies of India. At first, -the impression made on his mind by this Sti*et svgs of a very donliful native but lie had now no hesita-: lion in saying, that as far as his own judgment NV as contented, and it was not only his opinion but that of his colleagues, that in proportion ,as they sepa rated the native armies front. the Company they disqualified it.from faithfully performing the im portant, 'duties which were entrusted, to it ; and . there was no way of incorporating the native ariny with the Ding's army, which wotih.l make it other than a local army,ahid if no essential distinctions were made, it would he a most gratuitous' sacr i- fice to take front it the naineit at present bOre, in Order to call it the arillyof the Crown. Oa no part, of the subject was he more satisfied than on this, that while the. Company continued to exec- cise the government of India, they ought to have the poWer of'the sword as well aS of the law'. The . Company had generally gone along with. Govern , ment in their ideas on the . ' subject, of sending troops - 10 India.-.--Onthe policy of Sending them at Ott! ii ne ‘s..{:rt it was thought right by Arinisters Cloy no in:aerial difference of opi— nion h... 1 o , cnri- , ;(1.

That danger was happily gone , by ; but if our Indiqn possessions ;.hoilld, at any future period, be So menaced., he thought it would not •be fair, that the whole , exnence of such atiginen tation of our force shotild he charged on-the EaSt India Company. questions on such :subjects Were disagreeable to settle at the time, When the deciSion come to must be irinuediately acted upon, he should propose elat-a certain"portion of troops 'should be named to . d'o'garrison (hay,' eic. in In dia,-and wheti at anytime tiaa ;elditional' number were •sent, it,. should be assumed that these were ret - wired , by the interests of the Empire . , and the 'charge be accordingly borne by the public in stead of the'Conipqny. He wished all the acts 'of .the - Company to be done in their name, and that . their servants-should be known as such, and not us the servants, of others. One 'alteration, ,hoir ever, be wished to suggest on this point ; one alteration' in which he thought the power of the 'Crown ought to be' distinctly -exercised, leaving their GOvernoe . General and their great .oflieers to be .chosen as they were at present; be.Nvi.stwd the approbation of the Crown to be given under the' Sign INlannal, and the ConnniS . sions to. be countersigned . bythe President of the B:sard of Controok He was of opinion, that Par liament would he guilty of a most dangerous' en croachment on the power of the East India Corn ' patty if they were .to legislate on religion in a larger sense as applying to the -GoVertniient ofi India ; nri question ought they to approach with more ofcantion, or touch with more of delicaey, and they would act most unwisely iu giving any imperative' instructions on this head ; but he thought they were bound io decency to pay some attention to the subjeet.- The rites of ordination and confirmation ad(' not at present be perforin ed, in India. The evil ought toile removed, a he thOught it tetight be by the i.npolotment of a Bishop and three. Archdeacons 'foe that ptirpose. He thought there could be no oi)iection in this, to give English subjects the ,benefit of Englidi laws, . and the Solace of the rights of the Church of Eng land; He now came to a branch; of the Subject, which was of great importance,• as • it related to the intercourse 'carried .on with the F.at Inches by foreigners. Care ought to be taken that that trade, Which' English subjects could carry on, should not be enjoyed by fortogliersto our loss, ' and they ought effectually to'gnatd tgainst Eng . lish capital being forced out of its'prOperehantiel into a foreign channel, by regulations which gave foreigners an advantage - over the traders of this country. This he. thought of • iraportuncei• not that. he wished to monopolize all the trmle in the world, fdr he Was one of those who ticraght, if a peace were estahliShed,. there tout! be " trade enough fOr every nation ; but it 'nes at great ob ject tc secure British eXertion, and British capital from s,:eking foreign' channel. ,He would now conclude. He felt that he had'trespaSsed largely on the time of the'Conunittee, but he ,'-had gone Over the .differiot parts of the subject-as rapidly. as he could, .and he felt that• he had left much un said.. He hoped the Committee . would' allow the !lieSolatinuS to be read . 27..0 .. Ainii - 17 this day, with a view to their being printed. He would then recommend that •a day should benamed at such a distance as would enable them Maturely to consider the. Resolutions beforetliey come to the discossion of this eee4 important subject... 1k hoped they should then nater with minds fully prepared fairly to enter upon this e!;.: -..at tpiestion, and a greater never. bad occupied the attention of a. British Legislature. Whatever might be the ge 7 neral opioion of the.eotieSe which 7-Jinisters tilt disposed to take, be was sincerely'conscions that they Were only aulOous 'to take that which was prescribed by duty. That they Ind not codekt, yonred to consult any one of the great conflicting interests •in that House must be clear, as they happened unfortanately to . differ , from' theta all.
