LONDON, FRIDAY, MAY 21, 1858. The discussion on Mr. CARDWELL'S motion has been again adjourned, and it is fortunate that such has been the case. Fresh information has come to hand, which will be found in another column, and which will render it im possible for any professing Liberal, to vote in favour of the factious resolution. Mr. BRIGHT'S brilliant oration of last night has removed the last doubt that could be entertained on the point. The Hon. Gentleman fairly entered into the ques tion. There was no reticence—no arriere penseel Ho showed that the real matter in dispute was not the welfare or safety of India— the 'vindication or glorification of Lord CANNING—but simply whether the present Government were to remain in office or to be re placed by their predecessors. It was determined that a desperate attempt should be made before 'Whitsuntide. Some topic should be discovered to get rid of the present Cabinet, and to subst'. tute the family clique—atreagthened by the ur.- expeoted adhesion of Lord Jorrx RUSSELL and the tribe of GREYS and ELLIOTTS—" whose name is legion." The celebrated despatch was, un fortunately for the Sabbath-day conspirators, selected, and on that they staked their political reputation. Every thing has, however, gone wrong. The suppregsed information has oozed out. We know that the proclamation has been universally and unequivocally condemned in Tudia—that Sir COLIN CAMPBELL, Sir JAMES OUTRAM, Sir JOHN lawnivicv.,, and Colonel FRANKS have each pro tested against it—that no person of weight or in fluence on the spot has ventured to support it. It was concocted by the red-tapists at Calcutta in pursuance of the very system—the cJnfis.:mtion polioy—that occasioned the outbreak. The Governor-General can no longer be designated as "Clemency CANNING." Ile was only mild, when resolution and energy were required ; but 'when mercy ought to have Wen displayed — when those who were doubting ought to be per suaded into the right course, then an unfair ad- vantage was taken. It is not on the part of the Ileneal civilians alone that the unipn of the bully and coward are perceptible. Mr. Bar enT has satisfactor i ly disposed of the ra mour so ingeniously started, and industriously circulated, that it V 7 Oa in concert with some mem ber of the Government that he asked the cele brated question which led to the publication of the despatch. That has now been satisfac torily explained, and all the calumnies and arguments founded thereon have been dispersed. He also placed the question on its true founds tin, which was thepolicy of the Proclamation, and not the publication of the answering De spatch. That publication was indispensable. It could not have been avoided, under the circum stances. An answer, clear and distinct, was essential. Rad it been withheld, the results would, indeed, have been terrible. The war would have been prolonged, and the ranks of the mutinous Sepoys reinforced by those who were comparatively innocent, and who might be re garded as patriots fighting for their homes and families—for all that renders life worth having— rather than as truculent rebels. We have already, on many occasions, com plained of secret diplomacy, and the true Liberals have echoed our objections. Bat, surely, it would have been far worse if there had been any suppressio veri on such a point. The real governors of the 'United Kingdom, the chosen representatives of the independent consti tuencies, had a right to demand full information, and, if it had been denied, to censure the Ministers who sought to substitute autocracy for Parliamentary Government. There would have been fair grounds of complaint if it had been kept back, and none but the most factious opponents —men actuated by the most insatiate cupidity could object to the course adopted by Lord ELLENBOROUGH, we say " Lord ELLENBOROUGH," for he was alone responsible, and with chivalrous devotion, he bore the burden and sacrificed himself in the cause of truth and justice. Lord Jam RUSSELL should be the last to com plain of such an act, or to seek to render the en tire Cabinet liable for the mistake—even if it were a mistake—of one of its members. He himself has committed indiscretions, and there was, on one occasion, much stronger grounds for making the then Government liable for his inde pendent acts than the present for those of Lord ELLENBOROUGH. The real question, however, and that on which judgment must be pronounced, is the spoliation policy of Lard CANNING. It is impossible to evade that leading point, or to ride off on a collateral issue. Terrible may be the consequences if the interests and welfare of India are disregarded. We do not, however, believe that any consistent Liberal can vote for the resolu tion, or assist in producing the mischief that must follow a proceeding so injudicious and un warrantable. It now appears that Mr. V. SMITH has received no less than four lettns from Lord CANNING, all of which have been carefully suppressed ! His former colleague, Lord GRANTILLE, acted more fairly, for he immediately communicated to Lord ELLENBOROUGH the substance of the only letter which he had received respecting the proclamation. He also stated that General OUTRAM had objected to its se verity. It would, indeed, have been strange if the views of that distinguished officer, written on the spot, and with all the evidence whereon to found a decisive judgment, had not been acted on. We believe, too, that the opinions of Sir COLIN CAMPBELL, Sir JOHN LAWRENCE, and Colonel FRANKS were identical with those of Sir JAMES OUTRAM. How Mr. SMITH can reconcile his conduct with that becoming a man of honour and a gentleman we are at a loss to understand. The whole House—the whole country —men of every shade and variety of political opinion have united in condemning the course which he deliberately, and after consultation, with, his former leader, had adopted. But he was thoroughly reckless, pro vided he could turn out his opponents he cared not for his own reputation. He may have heard of " the engineer hoist with his own petard," and he may soon witness another illustration of the adage, in which he himself may serve to " point a moral and adorn a tale." One of these letters was forwarded to the Duke of CAMBRIDGE, as relating to military matters Why was not that forwarded to the Go vernment ? Mr. Smraur and his noble counsellor seemei to have ignored altogether the Government, and to have thought that their existence might have been altogether ignored. We ought not to belie - ve that many men occupying a high piesition in society could have acted such a part. Whatever may be the result of the pre sent motion, nothing can replace Mr. SMITH, or obtain for him the public confidence. He has irretrievably damaged himself, and must hence forward be contented to sink into the insignificance from which he should never have emerged. WHO WAS IT? TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EV ENING, MAY 21, 1858. LORD CANNING'S EXPLANATION. EAST INDIA (OUDE PROCLAMATION). The following are the papers moved for by Lord Derby in the House of Lords last night Copy "of Letter of the Secretary of the Chief Commissioner in Oude to the Secretary of the Go vernor-General, dated Lucknow, Bth March,lBsB, with reference to the issue of the Proclamation to the People of Oude :" " Also, Letter of the Secretary of the Governor- General to the Secretary of the Chief Commis sioner in Oude, dated Allahabad, the 10th March, on the same subject :" "Also, Letter of the same to the same, of the 31st March, on the same subject." HE' RY J. BAILLIE. India Board, 20th May, 1858. From George Couper, Esq., Secretary to the Chief Commissioner of Oude, G. F. Edmonstone, Esq., Secretary to the Government of India. (Political.) D. Camp, Chirelut, Bth March, 1858. Sir,—l am directed to acknowledge the receipt of your letter, No. 191, dated 3d inst., inclosing a Proclamation to be issued to the landholders, chiefs, and inhabitants of Oude, upon the fall of the capital. 2. In this proclamation an hereditary title in their estates is promised to such landholders as have been steadfast in their allegiance, and with these exceptions, the proprietary right in the soil of the province is confiscated. 3. The Chief Commissioner desires me to observe that in his belief there are not a dozen landholders in the province who have not themselves borne arms against us, or sent a representative to the Durbar, or assisted the rebel Government with men or money. The effect of the proclamation, therefore, will be to confiscate the entire proprie tary i•igbt in the soil ; and this being the case, it is, of course, hopeless to attempt to enlist the land holders on the side of order ; on the contrary, it is the Chief Commissioner's firm conviction that as soon as the chiefs and talookdars become ac quainted with the determination of the Govern ment to confiscate their rights, they wAI betake themselves at once to their domains, and prepare for a desperate and prolonged resistance. 4. The Chief Commissioner deems this matter of such vital importance, that, at the risk of being deemed importunate, he ventures to submit his views once more, in the hope that the right honor able the Governor-General may yet be induced to reconsider the subject. 5. He is of opinion that the landholders were most unjustly treated under our settlement opera dons, and even had they not been so, that it would have required a degree of fidelity on their part quite foreign to the usual character of an Asiatic to have remained faithful to our Government under the shocks to which it was exposed in Oude. In fact, it was not till our rule was virtually at an end, the whole country overrun, arid the capital in the hands of the rebel soldiery, that the talookdars, smarting as they were under the lose of their lands, sided against us. The Chief Commissioner thinks, therefore, that they ought hardly to be considered a 3 rebels, but rather as honourasle enemies, to whom terms, such as they could without loss of dignity accept, should be offered at the termination of the cam- paign. If these men b 3 given back their lauds they will at once aid U 3 in restoring order, and a police will soon be organised with theirco-operation, which will render unnecessary the presence of our enormous army to re-establish tranquillity and confidence. But if their life and freedom from imprisonment only be offered, they will resist ; and the Chief Commissioner foresees that we are only at the CDM mencoment of a guerilla war fur the extirpation, root and branch, of this class of men, which will in volve the loss of thousands of Europeans by battle, disease, and exposure. It must be borne in mind that th's species of warfare has always been pecu liarly harassing to our Indian forces, and will be far more so at present when we aro without a native army. 6. For the above reasons the fief Commissioner earnestly requests that such landholders and chiefs z:s have not been accomplices in the cold-blooded murder of Europeans may be enlisted on our side by the restoration of their ancient possessions, sub• ject to such restrictions as will protect their depen dents from oppression. If his lordship agree to this proposition, it will not yet be too late to commu nicate his assent by electric telegraph before the fall of the city, which will probably not take plat. for some days. Should no such communication be received, the Chief Commissioner will act upon his present instructions, satisfied that he has done all in his power to convince his Lordship that they will be ineffectual to re-establish our rule on a firm basis in Oude. I have, Jec. (Signed) G. COUPER, Secretary to Chief Commissioner. Chief Commissioner's Office, Camp, Chimlut, 8 March. From G. F. Edmoustone, Esq., Secretary Govern ment of India, with the Governor-General, to Major Geareral Sir J. Oatram, G.C.8., Chief Commissioner, Oude. Allahabad, 10th MArch, 1858. Sir,—Your secretary's letter of the Bth iust. was delivered to me at an e trly hour this morning by Captain F. Birch, and it will receive a detailed reply in clue course. Meanwhile, I am desired by the Right. Hen. the Governor-General to subjoin a clause which may be inserted in the proclamation (forwarded with my letter, No. 191, of 3d inst.), after the para graph which ends with the words, " Justice and mercy of the Beidsh Government." " To those amongst them who shall promptly come forward, and give to the Chief Commissioner their support in the re,toratiou of peace and order, this indulgence will be large, and the Governor- General will be ready to view liberally the claims which they may thus acquire to a restitution of their former rights." 2. This clause will add little or nothing to your discretionary power, but it may serve to iudicate more clearly to the tAlookdars the liberal spirit in which the Governor-General is prepared to review and reciprocate any advances on their part. 3. It is expected that you will find means to translate this additional clause into the vernacular languages, and that you will be able to have copies of the proclamation, so amended, prepared in suf ficient numbers, for ianmed:ate use. If more should be required, the magistrate of Cawnpore will lithograph them on your requisition. 4. It is very important, as you will readily see, that every copy of the vernacular version of the Proclamation sent to you, with my letter of the 3d inst., should be carefully destroyed. I have, Sc. (Signed) G. F. EDMONSTONE, Secretary Government of India, with the Governor-General. Allahabad, 10 March, 1858. (No. 437 A.) From G. F. Eimonstone, Esq., Secretary to the Government of India, with the Governor-Gene ral, to Major-General Sir 5. Outram, G.C.8., Chief Commissioner of 'Dude. Allahabad, March 31, 1853. Sir,—ln replying at once on the 10th instant to your secretary's letter of the Bth, in which you urged reasons against the issue of the Proclamation to the talookdars and landholders of Oude, which had been transmitted to you by the Right Hon. the Governsr-Ge nera l ' my answer was confined to communicatin g t o you the addition which his lord ship was willing without entering tm into t a h k e e g e t n o 6r t a h l a. q t u p e r s i c o l na raised s o e n d , in your letter. The Governor-General desires me to express his hope that you will not have supposed that the arguments adduced by you were not fully weighed by him, or that your opinion upon a sub ject on which you are so well entitled to offer one, Las not been received with sincere respect, al though he was unable to concur in it. 2. I am now directed by his lordship to explain the grounds upon which the course advocated in your letter, v!z , that such landholders and chiefs as have not been accomplices in the cold-blooded murder of Europeans should be enlisted on our side by the restoration of their ancient possessions, subject to such restrictions as will protect, their de pendents from oppression, is in the opinion of the Governor-General inadmissible. 3. The Governor-General entirely agrees with you in viewing the talookdars and landholders of Oude in a very different light from that in which rebels in our old provinces are to be regarded. The people of Oude had been subjects of the British Government for little more than one year when the mutinies broke out ; they had become so by no act of their own. By the introduction of our rule many of the chiefs had suffered a loss of property, and all had experienced a diminution of the import ance and arbitrary power which they had hitherto enjoyed ; and it is no marvel that those amongst them who had thus been losers should, when they saw our authority dissolved, have hastened to shake off their new allegiance. 4. The Governor-General views these circum stances as a palliation of acts of rebellion, even where hostility has been most active and syste matic. Accordingly, punishment by death or imprisonment is at once put aside by the Proclamation in the case of all who shall submit themselves to the Government, and who are not murderers ; and whilst confiscation of proprietary rights in the land is declared to be the general penalty, the means of obtaining more or less of exemption from it, and of establishing a claim to restitution of rights have been pointed out and are within the reach of all without injury to their honour. Nothing more is required for this than that they should promptly tender their adhe sion, and help to maintain peace and order. 5. The Governor-General considers that the course thus taken is one consistent with the dig nity of the Government, and abundantly lenient. To have followed that which is suggested in your secretary's letter would, in his Lordship's opinion, have been to treat the rebels not only as honour able enemies, but as enemies who had won the day. In the course of the rebellion, most of the leaders in it, probably all, have retaken to themselves the lands and villages of which they were deprived, by the summary settlement which followed the estab lishment of our Government in Oude. If upon the capture of Lucknow by tLe Commander-in-Chief, before our strength had been seen or felt in the distant districts, and before any submission had been received or invited from them, the rights of the rebel chiefs to all their ancient possessions had been recognised by the Government, it is not possible that the act would not have been viewed as dictated by fear or weakness. It would have led the people of Oude, and all who are wetching the course of events iu that province, to the conclusion that rebellion against the British Government cannot be a losing game, and although it might have purchased an immediate return to order, it would not assuredly have placed the future peace of the province upon a secure foundation. 6. You observe, indeed, that the landholders were most unjustly treated under our settlement. The Governor-General desires me to observe that if this were unreservedly the c Ise, or if the pro ceedings of the Commissioners by which many of tie t elookdars were deprived of portions of their possessions had been generally unjust, he would gladly have concurred in your recommendation, and would have been ready, at the risk of any misinterpretation of the motives of the Govern ment, to reinstate the talookdars at once in their old possessions. But it is not so. As a question of policy, indeed, the Governor-General considers that it may well be doubted whether the attempt to introduce into Oude a syst( m of village settlement in place of the old settlement under talookdars was a wise one ; but this is a point which need not be discussed here. As a question of justice, it is cer tain that the lands and village] taken from tLe talookdars had, for the most part, been usurped by them through fraud or violent:. 7. That unjust decisions were come to by some of our local officers in investigating and judging the titles of the landholders is, the Governor-General fears, too true ; but the proper way of rectifying such injustice is by a rehearing where complaint is made. This, you are aware, is the course which the Governor-General is - prepared to adopt, and to carry out in a liberal and conciliatory spirit. It is a very different one fr,An proclaiming that indis criminate restitution of all their ancient possessions is at ones to be yielded to the landholders. B.' That the hoAility of the talookdars of Oude who have been most active against the British Go vernment has been provoked, or is excused, by the inju6tica with which they have been treated, would semi to be your opinion. But I am - t) observe, that there are some facts which deserve to be weighed before pronouncing that this is the caso. 9. No chiefs have been more open in their re bellion than the Raj ths of Ohurda, Bhinga, and Gonda. The Governor-General believes that the first of thee did not lose a single village by the summary settlement, and certainly his assessment was materially reduce]. The second was dealt with in a like liberal manner. The Rajah of Gonda lost about 3J villages out of 400 ; but his assess ment was lowered by some 10,000 rupees. 10. No ono was more benefited by the change of goveinment than the young Rajah of Naupwa. His estates had boon the object of a civil war with a rival claimant for three years, and of these ho was at once recognised as sole proprietor by the British Government, losing only six villages out of more than a thousand. His mother was appointed guardian ; but her troops have been fighting against us at Lucknow from the beginning. 11. The Rajah cf . Dhowrera, also a tniaor, was treated with equal liberality. Every village was settled with his family ; yet the3e people turned upon Captain Hearsey and his party, refused them shelter, pursued them, captured the ladies, and sent them into Luc:know. 12. ILlaruf Box Khan, a large talockdar in Gonda, who had long been an object of persecution by the late Government, was establithed in the possession of all his property by us, yet he has been strongly hostile. 13. It is clear that injustice at the hands of the British Government has notabeen the cause of the hostility which in these instances, at least, has been dispLyei toward-3 our rule. 14. The moving spirit of these men and of others amongst the chiefs of Oude must be looked for elsewhere ; and in Vie opinion of the Governor- General it is to be found mainly in the repugnance which they feel to suffer any restraint of their hitherto arbitiary powers over those about them, to a diminution of their imp o:iance by being brought under equal laws, and to the obligation of disband ing their armed followers, and of living a peaceful and orderly life. 15. Tue penalty of confiscation of property is no more than a just one in suca cases as have been above recited ; and although ensiderat ions of policy and mercy and the newness d our rule prescribe a relaxation of the sentence mo-e or less large:accord iL.g to the features of each case, this relaxation must be preced ed by submission, an dthe Govern or-General cannot consent to offer all, without distinction, an entire cxernr,ion from permit!, and the restoration of all former possessions, ever though they should nut have been guilty of the nurder of Europeans. hive, (Signed) G.

During the last few days the transactions in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Market have not been very active, and prices in several instances have shown symptoms of depression.

Saltpetre has bean at full value, and Tallow is steady. P. Y. C. on the spot is now quoted, 535. 9d. June delivery, 535. 6d., and last three months, 51s. per cwt. Accounts from Liverpool report that the Cotton Market yesterday closed heavily, and most descrip tions were unaltered in value. The sales were 6,000 bales, 1,000 of which were taken by the exporters. The Railway Share Market presented a very quiet appearance, and only a limited busi ness was transacted, at former quotations. There was a further influx of gold into the Bank yesterday, viz., 38,0001., but the remittances to the Continent have not wholly ceased. A portion of the supply by the Red Jacket will, no doubt, be sent into the Bank, as the export demand is not sufficient to absorb the whole imports. It is ex pected that asmall quantity will shortly be received from Russia, which, toge her with what is coming forward from Australia, will ensure an extensive supply of the precious metals. In the Silver Market there is very little demand, but bars continue firm at GU- per oz. standard. The annual meeting of the Oriental Bank Corpo ration has been held this day ; H. G. Gordon, Esq. in the chair, when the report was adopted, and a dividend at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum was declared for the past half year, and in addition a bonus of 2 per cent. In the market for public securities there is an exceedingly limited business, but although the transactions are:comparatively unimportant, they are favorable in character, and stimulate a slightly upward movement. The increased confidenc3 felt in the result of the debate and the influx of gold are in favor of the market ; and it is generally expected that as soon as the divi sion takes place the quotations will become still more buoyant. Consols for transfer have been 972 ; for the 31 proximo, also 972 ; and for July 98 k. These are the latest prices. The New Threes are 961 ; the Reduced, 961 ; the 2i per Cents., 812 ; India Det:entures, 100 100 ; ditto Scrip, 1008 1. March Exchequer Bills, 40s. to 455. prem. ; and the Bonds, 1001 is Bauk Stock is 221. A large number of transactions have been re corded in the Foreign Stock Market, bat . prices remain steady.

Business in the Railway Share Market this morning has been extremely dull, and a slight de cline may be noticed in one or two of the leading lines. North British and North-Etstern (York) have declined 55., and Eastern Counties, North- Ea tern (Berwick) and South Devon, 10s. South.. Westerns advanced ss. and Midlands 10s. In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings scarcely any transactions have taken place. East Indian have declined about 1/. Mine?, Banks, and Miscellaneous Shares are very inactive, and have shown little variation from previous rates. 3RI i ISH F UNDS. —C LOSING PRICES —THIS DAY.
