Mr. CRAWSHAY said he could not consent to withdraw his resolution. He thought it would be better to, ad journ, and have the petition printed - for the cc.,nsiclAra don of the proprietors. , . .The CHAIR3iAN—I think s it is too early to adjcurn . nO w. Several gentlemen rose to order ana proposed an adjournment, in the midst of Whigli Mr. tifektisbu, who had been interrupted in addressing the nieetilt said tbatif they would hear him he would tell theta what the Gbvernrnent schenie was. ' Ho stood Oh a fSrO to address the proprietors, With his back to the nhetrman, for which - he was called to -order and .infortuedit was not a meeting of railway shareholders. Ro proceeded to address the meeting, reading extracts from an article recently published in the Plinburgh,r Reid eui kndia, womb he said might be taken ap t•he view of the GOvern ment, as the. work, was edited by i the Chancellor of the ExcheqUer. Mr: Lxwm, by way of saving time, "informed' 'Mr. Dickenson that everybody read the Ediabto'4h, `Re sew, but the hon. proprietor declined to take the hint. Mr. DICKENSON condi:it:led' to 'teed on;. but in Stich a heavy style, and So inandilde, that it -was impassible to understand bum, and a large number 'of proprieters•left the Court'and.the hen:. proprietor, teahemoibbiusat of the .Edinburgh.

EASTWICK said that the Courti,iiiid ; tkg_fittLitttry were sufficiently aware of the proposed,chafge posuuder it necessary they should make a stand against it: . The object of the Government Wai;to get r at,the cOntrol of the Indian Government, 'add get rid at the same time of responsibility. He condemned the - GOveintnetit for wishing to make an organic change withoutinquiry,end when the country was in such- a state. He heartily sympathised with the missionary movernent; but he did not think that country would be Oityistitinisodiby the influence and authority of her, Majesty's Government. The principle on which India had been governed was a sound one, and had been . ones _of progress. It was through the people of Indiawe hadsained that country, and we ought to hold it for eternatand temporal benefit. Il e firmly believed the 'military mating arose entirely from the greased cattridges z ,thefreeljpg of,caste being str,ng in the- sepoy breast. Nothing would be more dangeroui — to" attempt; to rule India 'contrary to -their deep=rooted prejudices. Their rule 'in India had, he felt sure, been worthy of England's greatness and glory. He sgppe'rtid: the resolution. Mr. - HELPS then moved the adjournment of the debate. CRAWSHAY seconded the motion, alai suggested that, the petition should , be printed ; and, circplated amongst the proprietors. The CHAIRMAN said it was ,unusual AO ',print a pro posed petition. There were other objections _to, such a con rte. The meeting Ultimately iojOni;ned ' $ll Wednesday next. EAST INDIA COMPANY. MEETING" "THUS PAY.; - „- Tee adjsurned mecting.of the proprietors for the con. sideration of the ,resolution diFcussed last, week, was held this morning. The meeting_.was also made special to consider the communication .trepa Government and the Directors reply relating to the future government of India. Mr. Mangles, the Chairman of the Board; of Directors, in the chair. Tee Creanifitair,'h4forld prOcee•dink With the debate, said the court had received an . answer from her Majesty's Government;ta their communication, referred to at the last meeting, and with the permission of the court ; he directed the correspondence that had parried between her Majesty's Goirernment and the Court of Directors, on the proposed change of Indian Government, to be read. (Hear, hear.) The CLERIC then read the documents. ,The first was a letter from the Court of Directors to Lord Palmerston, dated Dec. 31st, 1857. They infOrtned his lordship that they had been prepared to hear that an inquiry would be instituted intothe causes of the revolt, and bad them selves appointed .a Commission with a view to ascertain whether any blame, was attributable to the Company. They were surprised, however, to hear that the Government proposed to transfer the authority of the East India Company to j the Crown. They repre sented that the Directors were ready totake into con sideration any reforms that might be needed, and that they believed the control of, India could never be satisfactorily entrusted to a single individual, and subject to the check of Parliament. Lord Palmer don's reply was datscl•lBth Jan., 1858. His lordship stated, that the obaervatinas and opinions expressed by the Court of Directors should be fully considered by her Majesty's Government, but he refrained from entering into any discussion on them, because any correspondence with him' would be better cariied on through the Board of Control ; and, secondly, thathe considered the inten tions of the Government could he.best.explisined when the measure was submitted for the consideration a Parliament. The CHAIRMAN then said that the Court of Direct Ore had prepared a -*petition 'to Parliament, which he re quested the Clerk also to , read. The :CLERK, then read ,the -petition, a : voluminous document entering at full length-into the present state of India, defending the adminisiration of Vie Company, and objecting entirelY to - any"change ihat: would place it in the bands of.the Government. The petition contained various suggeitions for the future constitution of the board, and prayed that Parliament would continue the existing authority of the Court of Directors, and that no change would take place' during the present dis turbed state of India, s Mr. JONES resumed the debate, observing that many of his arguments and opinions had been anticipated by the petition just read. (Hear, hear.) A. mis apprehension very generally prevailed that tie dividends of the East India proprietors were in creased by conquests, but were they to double the revenue of that country the proprietors would riot get ,a _farthing of increase of dividend, and East India proprietors had no interest in, the, aggrandisement of India. (Hear, bear.) He deleted that the eompany had discouraged ChYistianityin India, and referred to many facts and cirourestances in stiPport of his statement. The obstruction to religion bad not spraing from the laches of the East India Company, but from the bloody unwarrant able and wholesale murder of the 'people in the unjust aggression of territory made at the instance of the Board of Control. (Hear.) It had been urged'against the Company that the people of India were redirced to such a state of poverty, that it was a crime against humanity that the •.present system should- continue ; and he denied the statement that had been put forth, that there wire 'Ciihteen -millions 'oi • people living in Madras at the rate of one penny per head per day. India wasiin an advaucilig position was shown by, the progress of the relative holdings of Europeans and natives ,of the. public debt. In 1834 Europeans held 20,439,8701., and 'natives 7,225,365/. ; in 1847; by the last returns, Europeans held 21,981,0001., and natives 12,000,0001. (Hear, hear.) -He then referred to the public works that had been. carried out in India since the establishment of the East India Company, and urged that, if the Company was id' be abolished to-morrow, the public would have no more power over the Government of India- than they have now. (Hear hear, hear.) Questions relative .to India were freely and properly considereal in that Court and he defied them to find a larger amount of Indian experience in any part of the World,' save' in India than was to be found at that board, and he bad heard 'that in the pro posed change those men were to be called upon to form the Indian Beard. (Hear, hear.) He was of opinion that they would discover the antagonism of Eug ' land if they gave to the holders of 100/. stock the privileges of voting that . were possessed exclusively by the holders of 1,0001. -stock. He ex tolled the administration of the Councils which 'had produced the most brilliant warriors and admirable statesmen. When they had revolt in Csu;iada, the Cape, Ceylon, and other places, the Government bad selected the civil officers of the Company to restore order and get the Government out of their difficulties ; and in the late Eastern war it was the Company's officer, -Lieutenant Baehr, that turned back the Russians; and, at Kars, there was Colonel Lake and Captain Thompson, the Company's officers, who were the means of saving the garrison when they were neglected by the home Government. (Hear, hear.) He contrasted such men with Colonel Anson, ;who was appointed to ithe command of the Indian army, through the influence of Prince Albert, an appointment that was an insult to the people of this country. (Hear.) He bad no objection to Prince Albert generally. In his own department he did his duty well—(laughter)—but he objected t& his using his power to influence the,Government in appoint ing incompetent Commanders•in-Chief. (Hear, bear.) He then criticised Lord Palmerston'i condect, with reference to India, during the time •he had been in power His appointment of Governors General bad been most unfortunate, and his whole aim had been annexation. He appeared to entertain with regard to India a similar notion to that of Napoleon I for bringing the whole of Europe under one rule. (Hear, hear.) In conclusion, he reviewed the government of the East India Company, which, as a whole, had been advantageous to the people of India. (Hear, hear.) In affirming the resolution he thought all would go home with the conviction that each man had done his duty. (Hear, hear.) Sir LANVEDNOR PHIL (director) said that be bad n r Thehos gtilintyesttoion beforetheGover th n e m c en o t ur o t r any w a s o o n t h e e ofr leading a p p a r o ty t o .. ance.

He denied the whole peopl eof that the England, Court of Pro lndia Company were a selfish body ; and those short-sighted men who made such charges spoke without reason, and in the language of folly. It wa s a say that th e E as t Indiao G rash. and fal se o pi n i on t o the spread of re li g i on in Government had dis c ou r ag e d India.

OFFIUE,,•Seven o'clock, SPORTING` NOTES. • THE CHEST.Ek CUP WEIGHTS. The eager curiosity of turfites has been gratified by the prompt publication of the HandiCap for the Chester Cup. For several days' the inspoetS• likely to be placed on certain animals' had' been 'warmly canvassed, and altogether Mr. Tophana's bill of pains'„ an d,penalties bad been anticipated with almost unprecedented interest. The handicap has created' a universal feeling of satisfac• tion. Prone as racing men are to grumble, they can discover nothing in the distribution of the Chester Cup Weights for the indulgence . of their fault-finding propen sities. Of course a difference of opinion exists as to the n a terits and demerits of p ar ti cu l ar h orses , an d without that dif ference there wou ld b e no specu l a tion but all voices are unanimone i n d ec l ar i ng t h at the weights have been adjusted with wonderful care, impartiality and judg ment. Altho ug h t h e top we i g ht . is 9st 51bs., the Handicap cannot be deemed a heavy one, neither must it be considered perniciously light. From Bst. and upwards fifte en h orses . are weighted, and that let includes the Derby and Oaks winner, the St. Leger winner, the Ascot Cup winner, and indeed nearly every horse that attained celebrity last season.. Thirty-two are handicapped at weights •varying from 7st, to 7st 121bs. ; 29 at Weights ranging from 6st. to 63t. 121bs. ; 31 figure at weights from sst to sst 121bs, and forty-seven are handicapped under sst, the minimum weight being 4st (Little Sate). From this statement it will be seen that the imports are sufficiently "flattering" to secure that which must be the aim of all handicappers ;—a large acceptance, and a good 'legitimate betting race. The Lamp is put ou t. H e w ill have to pale his ineffectual fire before more leniently treated opponents. He has the' disadvantageous distinction of heading the list at 9st 51bs. Since 1856, when he proved that he was a race horse of extraordinary pretensions ; and When his old name (Aladdin) became notorious, on account , of some very ;questionable proceedings the horse has not had a, chance of re-appearing in public. Few people will be inclined to' cast, in their net with Fisherman at 9st, 81b., and even with the Goodwood Stakes running fresh in my memory, I fancy Leamington at Bst. 9113. will have no chance of repeating his last year's success. Perhaps Blink Bonny, Set. 41b., will obtain supporters, for it must b e recollected that in 1847 Mendicant, 4 yrs., Bst., was withi n an ' ace o f winning,and indeed her defeat was then mainly attributed to an error Of judgMent on the ,part of poor Frank Butler — she was beaten by a head only by St. Lawrence, aged, 7st. 11b. Odd Trick, carrying 7st. 41b., won the Cambridgeshire with much , cleverness, and only with 81b. more on his'back his Roodee chance cannot be very insignificant. St. Giles . and Special License have weights in accordance with their autumnal achievements, and their respective owners cannot complain. Adamas is not very severely treated at 7st -81 b, and Riseber at 7st 61b has also a " nice" weight. The,next noteworthy name appears to be Good Friday, who is in at 7st 41b, and next to him at 21b lighter figures, Artillery, whom I shall not expect torefar'but of his range on the Roodee. Casting my eye farther dOWe ,the li st, i t i s arrested by Dalcamara, 4 yrs, Est 121 b, and On e A c t, 5 yrs , b a t 101 b. ' Both these animals are 'extremely well in, and if the mare retain any of that wonderful form which she displayed early • in the year of 1856, she will become a dangereus antagonist. Indeed, William Day's lot is likely to be in good requeSt.e That horse of dubious existence—l mean Whangae--is weighted at 6st 61h. Is there such an animal? Can any one prate of his whereabouts ? Is 'there a person who is labouring under the idea that he possesses an animal that has no existenoe exoept in; his mind's ey e 9 Is, in' a word, Whangae a nightniare ? ' . Kelpie, ate4st, is not likely to accomplish more than Yellow Jack, who ran at 2lbs less, and who, I take it, was a far better horsti. To him I should prefer Brother to Marchioness at pat 101 b., If General Bosquet was tried so highly last year as.it was at one time reported, his owner cannot have anything to complain of in the weight, sst 10Ibs. The General, however, certainly did something worse than nothing in. public. Wilton, sst 4lbs ; The Hadji. 53t 4lbs ; The Wrestler, sst 2lbs ; and Prince of Denmark, sst, will doubtless be beard of to advantage. Lower down in the list are the Latitude colt, sst ; Haymaker, 4st 12ths ; Beacon, 4st 10Ibs ; Gin, 4st 101bs and \Vouvemans, 4st slbs, all worthy of notice. On the publication of the acceptances I will express my opinion at greater length no the comparative chances of the horses handicapped. From the cursory examina tion which I have made of the weights, I am induced to believe that a fairer handicap. was never plated before the public, the imposts being 'distributed strictly in accordance with the known dapkbilities of the nominated animals.
