A parrot, of the grey species, which had been in the possessibn of its owner for upwards of twelve years, laid an egg. It had pre viously appeared very dull, and, as it were, over come with sickness, but immediately on laying the egg it became as lively as ever ! A large - seal was found enclosed in the stake nets at \Vestwater, Dundee, the beginning of last week, which, after a severe snuggle, was killed, and found to weigh 18 stone. It is supposed it will produce forty pints of oil. Four very fine salmon were found in them at the same time. Last Thursday night, between ten and eleven o'clock, as a man was passing near the Basin, in Hyde Park, be was overtaken by four men, who knocked him down, which stunned him; when he came to himself, be found his mouth tied with a handkerchief, and a pocket of his pantaloons, con taining 3501. in Bank notes, cut out, the con-, tents of his other pockets emptied, and the robbers made off. Yesterday morning, about ten o'clock, as three soldiers, with bayonets fixed, were escorting a de serter horn Newgate-street to Ludgate-hill, the prisoner made an attempt to escape, by running up the Old Bailey. The corporal fired at him ; but mis , ed the deserter, who was close by a Gentle man, and the ball struck a cart. The man was s t o pped by an indifferent pers on ; but` with consi derable difficulty. He also resisted the soldiets when they wa;;ted to take him away ; therefore they lodged him in Newgate till the people dispersed, as they were by this time very numerous. PAPERS RESPECTING the IVEGO:IATIO roR A RENEWta OF COMPANY's LX :LUSIVE KIVILEGES. • No. VI. • SECRET COURT OF DIRECTORS. LETTER. _FROM THE RIGHT HON.-E. DUNDAS TO THE CHAIRMAN AND DEPUTY. [Continued from Yesterday.] Downing-street, Dec. 28, 183 Gentlemen,—ln subtnii tang -a o your consideration such observations as have occurred to me on our letter of the 16th last, it is necessary that you should understand them to be merely rehminary, in con templation of future discitssions, and by no means as the result of any plan or projected , sy'stetn, ma tured in concert with his Maje , ty's confidential ser vants. It will depend on the judgment which the Court of DireCtors may form on the propriety or necessity of adhering to the present system of their Indian trade and administration in all its pairs, whe ther I shall'be enabled to hold out to !hem any ex peetation that their application to Parliament for a renewal ot the company's Charter will meet with theconcurrence of Government. I shall follow the order adopted in your letter, in respe& to the subje6ts which you hale particularly mentioned; and shall offer some additional remarks on any other important branches of the present sys tem, in which alterations may probably. be deemed indisrnsably necessary. Ist. Concurrieg in substance - with the proposi tion contained in the first article, I b lOl not enlarge upon its details. I have not yet heard or read all arguments against the continuance of the. system under which the British possessions in. India are governed, of sufficient weight to counterbalance the praittic l beneEs which have been derived from in their increased and increasing prosperity, and, the general security ausl happiness of their „inhabitants. It is possible that the same effects might have been produced under a Government immediately depen dent on the Crown ; but for the attainment of those objects the experiment is, at least, unnecessary, and it might be attended with dangers to the Con stitutien of this country, which, if they can be avoided, it would to unwise' to encounter. Any al teration,- therefore, which may be suggested in .this part of the system, - will probably be only in its de tails. ,It may, however, bc7d:emed.advtsable to ex, tend the controlling auttiorily of the Board of Corn missioners to such proceedings or the Court of Di rector. in England, as are immediately connected with the government or revenues ot the C rnpany's territorial possessions. in India, more especially if the suggestion contained in your fourth article should be adopted. 2d. In the view which I have already taken of the proposition contained in ,the preceding article, it is Certainly unnecesssary to disctiss the Company's right to the permanent possession of the British ter ritories in India. It is impossible that this right should be relinquished on the part of the public, or that a claim can be admitted, on the part of the Company, to the extent which has sometimes been maintained, and to which you seemed to have ad verted in the second article. 3d. It is equally impossible to acquiesce in all the reasoning, though I am perfeelly willing to concur in the conclusion deduced from it in the third article. I think it very desirable that no measure should be adopted, in the renewal of the Charter, w hich would have the effect of reducing the value of the capital +stock of the East India Company; and that due care should be taken to secure their proper share of 'advantage in any future amelioration ot their affairs ; but as the w has regulated the mode in which those affairs, at home and abroad, should be administered, I cannot enter into the distinClion which is stated in this article, and which I have met with on other other occasions, as to the equitable claim of the Compaq to any remuneration from the public, or other benefit, on account of wars, or other events, which, as represented in your let er, did not ori ginate in " the Executive body of the Company, but proceeded from causes which that body could not control." It would be premature, in this stage of the discus sion, to enter into any details, as .to the proportion of benefit to be derived by the Company or the pub lic, respettively, from any future amelioration in the state of your finances; and 'any contingent ex peetation of that nature must, at all events, be post poned till a large portion of the Ipdiau debt has been discharged. 4th. The liquidation of that debt is. undoubtedly a measure of indispensable necessity, not only to the Company but to the public. If we were now call ed upon to disuss the right of the public to the ter ritorial revenues, which have been obtained in India either by cession or conquest, it would be impossible to relieve the question from the fair claims ot the Company, and their creditors to a reimbursement of the expences which have been incurred, and the discharge of the debts which have been contratled, in the acquisition and maintenance of those posses- Entertaining that opinion, and convinced that the liquidation of the Indian debt, in the moil speedy and effeaual mode, would be a measure of Mutual interest and advantage, I do not suppose that your suggestion in the fourth article would be objected to by Government, provided the necessity, or at least the expediency of such an interference, on the part of the public, is made obvious and apparent ; and provided also, that sufficient security is _afforded for the punCtual payment of the interest, and of'an ade quate 'sinking. fund, for the liquidation of the prin cipal ot any sums adaanced for-that purpose. I need not remind you, however, that any such aid from the public will be unavailing, and the relief afforded by it will be temporary and delusive, unless by the zealous exertions of your Governments abroad, and the minute and detailed investigation and unremit ting attention of the Court of DireCiors, the ordi nary expenditure in India, including the interest of debt, shall be brought within the limit of your an nual income. The most sanguine expectations of a result even more favourable, and of a large surplus retenue above your ordinary eipences in time of peace, have recently been conveyed to you by Lord Mioto ; but I trust that the Court of Directors will not be induced by those hopes, however well found ed, to relax in their exertions. Every item of those, LONDON Printed by IHomA s WOOD, o f No. 35, Maiden-lane, Covent-garden; and Published by WI I LIAM 'ARMIGE It SCRIPPS, South-Molton-street, Grosvenor-square, .At the SUN OFFICE, No, I le, Strand, where Advertisements, Orders for the raper, koterslOx the 4:4itor; Sic. (post-paid), must be addressed. or any other estim ites, which the Court . may ex hibit, must be strialy scrutinized and compared with the. aEtual results of former years, and with .t he detailed account of any redu6tions which may have been ordered or carried into effed., sth. I can haye no hesitation in acceding, with some limitations, to the principle for which you contend in your fifth article. It is absurd and unreasonable to suppose that. the EaSt India Com pany, out of their own revenues, can long maintain a contest against the power el France, aided by the* greater part of Europe and a large portion of Asia. If the principal theatre of the war between Euro pean nations is to be transferred to Hindostan, it must be.supported, to a consderable extent, by Eu ropean resource* ; , and if our empire in India is an object worth preserving, this country must -contri bute to its defence against any attaek of the de scription which we have been taught to expect. The extraordinary expellees incurred' in the neces sary preparations fur such a warfare, or in the actual contest, ought not in justice, to be imposed as a burthen on the Company alone, even if they were able to sustain it. 6th, I am not aware of any reason for extending the duration of the Charter beyond such a limit, as,. with the unexpired term, will be equal to the period gaanted in 1793 ; but I state this merely on the first consideration,ot the subject : and if the general question is to be discussed, I shall pay due atten tion to any suggestions which the Court may.think it right to otTer on that particular point. Having thus adverted, at greater length perhaps than was necessary, to the various topi,s introduced into your letter, I shall proceed io state such obser vations :is appear to me necessary to be submitted to the consideration of the Court Of Dire:•-ters fi r the purpose of enabling them finally to d..cide, wiieteer, under the circumstances of the present s tuation of the Company's affairs, and of the expecta.iiins which will probatilY b.:! entertained by the ete,lic, and sanctioned by Govertinyht, they will adhere to . their intention of applying now to Parliament for a renewal of the Comeany's Charter. It will readit ) occur to the Court, that whenever art opportunity is atfoidea of deciding in Parliament on the propriety at continuing in the Company any privileges of a commercial nature, will 'ae impor tant to consider, whetter the system cstabt4lied by t he Act iii 1793, for the arade ,of private individuals between Britain and India, has answ'ered the ex peetations, or fulfilled the intentions, of the Legis lature. It is wholly unnecessary for me, at present, to enter into any detail of the various discussions which have taken place on that s'ubjed. The arguments on both sides of the question must be familiar to the Court, and the opinions of those persons «ho hate turned their attention, to it have, in all probability, - been long since fixed and settled : it is fit, therefore, that the Court should now un derstand distinctly, that I cannot hold out to them the expectation, that his Majesty's Minister's will concur in an application to - Parhament for a renewal of any privileges to the East India Company, which will prevent .British merchants and manufacturers from trading' to and from India, and the other countries within the present limits of the Company's exclusive ti ide (the dominions of the Empire of China excepted); in ships or vessels hired or freighted by themselves, instead of being, confined, as at present, to ships in the service of the Company, or licensed by the Court of Directors. In the derail of any legislative provisions which it might be ex• pedient to enact on this subject, it would be-abso lutely necessary to guard against the abu4es which would arise, from facilities thus affbrded to persons attempting to settle and : reside in the British terri• tories, without a license frem the Company, or without the sanction or knowledge of the local Go- Vernments. There are various other pOints to which it would also be necessary tO pay due attention, not only as being important to the Company and to the general' trade of the country, 'but essential to the security and easy colle&ion of the public revenue. It would obviously, however, be premature, on this occa- sion, to enter into any farther detail, and I have confined myself to a mere statement of the general proposition. Another point, which would probably be deemed indispensable, is an alteration in the military system in - India, for the removal of those jealousies and di visions which hive unfortunately been too prevalent between the different branches of the Military ser vice in that quarter,. and which must, at all times, be highly prejudicial to the public interest ; and for the cut rcction of the . anomalous system of divided responsibility, which prevail at presents in this coun try, n every thing that relates to the military de fence of India. The only effeCtual remedy for these evils will, probably, be found in arrangements" for . consolidating your Indian army with 'the King'S . troops; founded upon the plan so strongly recom mended. by Lord Cornwallis, with such modifica tions as the constitution of your service may render expedient or necessary. These arrangements need not be attended with any alteration in thesys tem of irthnotion now in operation among the offi 7 cers of the native branch of the service, or with any diminution hey might more probably produce au increase) of any other professional advantages'which those officers now enjoy ; ' , either would they, in any degree,, interfere with the general authority now possessed by the Court of Direetors and the'Govern ments in India_ over his Arjesty's forces 'serving in those parts, or with their controul over all-dkburse ments of 'a -military nature. I am, moreover, not aware of any reason against continuing in ,t her Court of Direaors the nomination of all cadets destined to hold commissions in the Indian army. Haviog thus stated to you, tor the considet'ation of the Court of Direttnrs, the principal points to which I was desirous of dr - awing their attention upon this occasion, I have only to assure you, that it will be the earnest desire of his Majesty's Government, to suggest to Parliament such a system only, as shall be conformable to the principles on which the re gulations of 1784 and 1793 were founded, as will secure to this kingdom all the benefit that can prac tically be derived from its trade with our possessions in India, and to the natives of those countries a Go vernment, and an administration of laws, suited to their customs, habits, and prejudices, and consistent with the British charaCter, and which shah also be strong and efficient, without adding unnecessarily to the authority of the Executive Government at home, Increasitig; to any d'Angerou extent, the influ ence of the - Crown.

The late drought wai . too quickly followed by wet and otherwise • unfavourable weather. Nothing yet sown but beans, peas;and a few black or early oats, of which little is said, from , their not being forward, in growth.
