From Baron TAcbig to Mr. Allsopa. " The sp''cimens ^f your Pale Ale sent to me afforded me another opportunity of confirming its valuable qualities. lam myself an ad mirer of this beverage, and my own experience enables me to re commend it, in accordance wills the opinion of the most eminent English physicians, as a very agreeable and efficient tonic, and as a gene al beverage, both for the invadd and the robust. " JUSTUS LIEBIG. " Giessen, May 6, 1852 That the Public might form a correct judgment of the inten tion of that eminent authority, Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS have republished Baron LIELIIG'S Letter to Mr. ALLSOPP in extenso, in all the London Daily Journals, as well as in other Papers, copies of which Letter, and of the very numerous and continually increas ing Professional Testimonials in favour of their PALE and BITTER ALE, may be obtained on application at the Brewery, Burton-on- Trent; or at their Establishments in London, Liverpool, ➢lanches ter, Dudley, Glasgow, Dublin, Birmimham, and elsewhere. [T. No. 4.] A BRON LIEBIG'S t OPINION of " PALE The prominence given to the name of Baron Liebig in pla?ards and advertisements will have created the impression that he coveted a celebrity inconsistent with the dignity of his station in the scientific world, Having learned that he had attained such undesirable no toriety, Baron Liebig has requested the publication of the following • letter, with the view of iworrning the public of the motives which dictated his communication to Mr. Allsopp :. " The question of adulteration by strychnine, which has been taken up seriously in England, seemed to me of great importance, and I thought to do some good by aiding, to demonstrate the error. If I wished t' associate with any individual brewe r y m y remarks on the alleged adulteration of bitter, beer with strychnine, it would have been natural to have mentioned another brewery, in which alone, and not in Mr. Allsopp's, I was engaged in investigating the Burton mode of brewing : and it was also in that other brewery that the Bavarian brewers acquired all the instruction they obtained at Bur ton. The admiration I expressed of this beverage in my letter to Mr. Allsopp is advertised in such a manner as to lead to the inference that my praise was exclusively confined to Mr. Allsopp's beer ; this was not the case, my remarks referred to that class of beer.

Il lustrated by 10 coloured Engravings, on the Anatomy of the Repro ductive Organs and their relative conditions in Health and Disease. By SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., A 7, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &e., in. The essential object of this treatise , is to point out the fearful consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which have produced snore misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated schools of medicine both in this country and in continental Europe. The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few legally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and ur.- divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short, every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguished medical and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself Is sufficient guarantee that those who may place themselves under his care will, in every instance, meet with that delicate consideration and Inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these cases.

I t will be rem bered that, in consequence of progressive encroachments remem bered the Crown property in Essex, an infinite number of actions were commenced by the Att orney-General, but before going to trial certain disclosures were made of malversation on the part of some of the officials in trusted with the royal demesnes in other parts of the kingdom, the proceedings were suspended, and eventu ally, the Legislature having been satisfied that the timber grown in these vast wildernesses was not avail able for ship-building, two Bills were passed, disaf toresting Hainault and the New Forest by command of her Majesty. The Commissioners appointed were di rected to inquire into all claims in or upon the soil, timber, &c., more especially as to certain rights of common, established by ancient usage. The Act also directed that the deer should be removed or destroyed with all convenient speed, end that the forest reeves (rangers) should be forthwith discharged. According to the evidence brought before the Commissioners, it ap pears that, as regards Hainault, it has been cnstomary, from time immemorial, to allow every poor widow not re ceiving parochial relief, residing in the parishes of Bark ing and Dagenham (which lie within the forest), one load of wood on Easter Monday, or, in lieu thereof, Bs. in money to those who could not procure a team to carry the wood on that day. In respect of this right the Commissioners have awarded, as compensation, 4161,135. 101. to the parish of Barking, and 831. 63. Bd. to Dagen ham parish, such sums to be distributed among those whose claims may have been satisfactorily established. The only claimant on the soil of any importance was Sir Charles Hulse, Bart., of Breamore-house, Southampton, who, in the c ha r acter of Lord of the Manor of Barking, set up a right to a portion of the forest called the King's Woods. This claim was at the time disputed, but was subsequently recognised so as to entitle Sir C. Hulse to compensation. The deer have been either removed or destroyed, the rangers have been discharged, the wood man's axe has already made considerable havoc, and in a very short time the whole of this vast area will be clear of timber.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yesterday at the London Tavern ; Mr. J. N. Daniell in the chair. The report, an abstract of which has appeared in The Sun, was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the re port, said the affairs of the company were in nearly the same position as when the shareholders last met, a short time ago. They wore going on in the old way, progressing steadily and well; they had had an increase of traffic and a diminution of expenditure, and he believed that every exertion had been made to carry out the best interests of the company. They had hoped to have had the goods traffic on their line at this time, but circumstances over which they bad no control had delayed the completion of the Hay dornequare junction line, which was to have been finished in June last. The workmen had not been able to complete thp warehouses, without which it would haye been useless to open the junction line. They ivere, however, assured that the line and ware houses would be ready to accommodate the goods traffic of the London and North-Western Company on the Ist of October. He had little doubt the whole would be ready_ for traffic before the end of October next. It was hoped it would be then open, as that was the time of year when their passenger traffic commenced to fall off, and the goods traffic then com ing on would aid their dividend materially. The dividend for the first half of the year was generally less than for the second half, and although at the cor responding period of 1851 they had a dividend of 2s. per share, that did not arise entirely from traffic, for 3,000/. of it consisted of profit on the sale of shares. The dividend on the present occasion was from the net earnings of the line. He bad trusted that the amount would -have been further increased by the North. Western. goads traffic, but no doubt they would derive some benefit from that traffic in the current half-year ;:aed so soon as the terminus was completed for the accommodation of the Eastern Counties trains at Fenchurclso street they would re• ceive a considerable addition to their traffic. With regard to the Tilbury and Southend line, the Black wall Coropany were defended and guarded in every Way from loss of the Gravesend traffic. He believed the addition to their traffic from "that source would be very great. Every exertion would be made by the contractors to open the line to Tilbury, opposite Graves end, by the Ist of May next. The extension to Southend would be opaned in about twelve months from the present time, although the time sti pulated was eighteen months. So that their present prospect was very good. He might be allowed to mention that the directors were firmly of opinion that their line, as one of. five miles in length only, could. never be a paying line in itself, and it was for this reason that they had, with the sanction and support of the proprietors, altered the system of workieg the railway, and done other things with a view to advance the interests of the company and to connect the line with other railways. Their anticipations with regard to dividends had long been deferred, but they were now on the eve of being realised. The exertions of the directors in promoting the welfare of the undertaking had been as zealous as possible, and he believed the shareholders generally were satisfied with those exertions : but that they had not given universal satisfaction was to be seen from a letter which appeared in the Times of that morning, under the signature of " A Poor Debtor."—(Laugh ter.) The writer of that letter impugned the conduct of the directors, who were charged with wasting large sums of money in the construction of a branch to Haydon-square, and in building an extravagant terminus at Fenchurch-street, while the shareholders were obliged to put up with a dividend of 2s. per share. Now he thought the shareholders would agree with him in saying that a person writing to a paper like the Times should, before he attempted to censure a company, at least take the trouble of investigating the truth of the charges he thought proper to bring against them.—(Hear, hear.) The writer of the letter to which he referred might be a " poor debtor," but he was evidently much poorer in intellect and information. The r‘ Poor Debtor's" charge was, that the company had agreed to spend half-a-million of money upon the Hayden-square branch. The fact was that the branch was to cost 75,0001., not one farthing of which would come out of the pockets of the Blackwell Company—(Hear)— and not only would it not cost the proprietors any thing, but the latter would reap a very considerable advantage from the additional traffic it would bring on the line when constructed.—(Hear.) With regard to the Fenchurch-street terminus, the proprietors were thoroughly acquainted with the fact that that terminus was scarcely large enough for the present traffic, and it must, of course, be satis factory to them to know that the enlargement was not to be made with their money ; so that, in short, these excrescences, which the writer in the Times charged them with having undertaken at an enormous expense, would not cost the company anything, while the outlay would greatly increase the passenger traffic, and consequently add to the receipts of the railway.—(Hear.) A good in terest was guaranteed on the outlay at the terminus in Fenchurch-street by the Eastern Counties Com pany, and there could be no doubt that the latter company saw clearly they would derive considerable advantage from the extra accommodation it would afford them for their passenger traffic. He concluded by moving the adoption of the report. Mr. Hato seconded the motion. Mr. PALLISER entered into some statistics with a view to show that the company carried passengers on the line for less than id. each. He arrived at this conclusion from comparing the receipts and number of passengers carried at one period with the amount tlae result of Mr. e of receipts and num ber carried at other p eriods, and , inasmuch as ntauhminbgerst.he differenecxeplianintle: that receipts andu lt in th ph he i The iosme r; C sa rinte calculations ' n u t m l e a l tns s as receipts were erroneous an and the number of passengers of the Dock Ju nction line include d in the returns with the net rece i p ts and number of passen gers included in the retu rns at another p erio d , in which case the receipts per p assen g er would a ppear to be much less than it really was ; and, so far from carrying passengers for less than id. there were none carried under a mere fraction less than ld.; and that, so far from having received less money, they had re ceived 3,0001. more during the past halt-year than at any corresponding period. The Blackwall Railway had boats on one side of it and omnibuses on the other, and the directors were obliged to do the best they could to protect the interests of the company. The sum paid by passengers for single tickets on the railway averaged 4.307 d. each; for return tickets, 3.154 d. each ; and to and from the steamboats, 3.497 d. each ; so that the steamboat passengers paid more than the return-tickets on the railway. Mr. PALLISER contended that the steam-boats had taken away their dividend. The CHAIRMAN could not help Mr. Palliser, if he chose to take that view of the case, which was not the fact. interest complain,m o more per a s A t h a P t ri r O a r ffi li c l E T fromolt S t h a l e d s t they esm h . a b d o a n t os returned A passenger diseu s t 3 h i n a n t t t h h e en r e t e u n r e n ue traffic s p o e n e t t i h n e g r ai t l h w e ay . paid on the borrowed money, in the course of 'Which it was stated that it had been reduced from 5 p er cent. to 42 and 41 per cent., and that they always advertised for loans and had found few individuals who were willing to lend their money at 4 per cent. for so long a period as five or seven years. Th ey had borrowed money from the B ank of En g l and at 4 1 per cent. In answer to a question it was stated that they estimated the Gravesend traffic at between 8,000 1. and 9,0001. a-year, which w as not to be less whe n the Tilbury line was opened from tra ffic. The report was then adopted . Mr. TITE, in reply to a qu estion, stated that it was not the fault of the London and North-Western nor ay T d n o e n-square a k re juncti on oline any ha d otherne not been pnaeretny that completed. th e B Corn. pang had to provide the lan d, a lar g e bridge had to b e built, and the warehouses h ad to be altered ; thes e and other matters caused delay, and there was no blame to the engineer or anyone else; the delay was unavoidable. Mr. PALLISER moved a reso lution to the effect th at in future no steamboats be perm itted to collec t the fare for the Blackwall Railway ; that the Blackwall_ pier be open to all passenger-boats by the payment of pier-dues; that the booking at Fenchurch-street for boat and rail be discontinued, and that the boats that make the Black wall-pier terminus have an allowan ce only upon the pier dues. The m o ti on was no t se conded, and therefore fell to the ground.

Consequent upon this abaudonment, the nominal amount of tbe ex tansion shares is reduced to 161. per share, and of the West Riding Union shares to 141. per share. The mandamus issued by the Court of Queen's Bench fur the formation of the remaining portion of the Man chester and Southport line, in which the company is interested, having been made absolute, it has been determined, however reluctantly, to commence the preliminary proceedings con nected with the purchase of land, in the first instance, for the line between Wigan and Southport. The order of the Vice-Chancellor's Court, which directed the Great Northern Company to account for all traffic belonging to them which might pass over the lines of the company, is still in force. In the matter of the Wakefield lied Enottingley stations, an award has been made, which has determined the coat of the former to be 68,354/, and of the latter to be 11,516/. ; or, together, 79,8711. A moiety of this amount is chargeable by agreement to the Great Northern Rail way Company. The negotiations for an amalgama tion with the East Lancashire Company having the attention of the boards of both companies is being directed to the propriety of concluding a A•affic agreement, by which several of the many ad vantages which would have resulted from the first named measure may be secured at places and in dis tricts which a re served in common by both companies. The capital account shows that 11,855,7371. had le.en received, and 11,812,2221. expended, leaving a balance of 43,515/. The revenue account for the half-year ending the 30th of June shows that 432,6671. had b een received, and 191,622/. expended, including 7,944/• rates and taxes, and 5,1311.

To this sum is added 19,2791., the balance from the last ac count; 6951., dividends on shares in other lines ; and 3 0351., interest on balances ; making together 264,0561.

Having thus been enabled to raise so large a sum on such favourable terms, and to provide the means of the half-yearly expenditure ou capital account, the directors have postponed making any further calls on the company's preference shares, the capital represented by which is still available to a large extent. The extension line to Stock ton, joining there the line to Hartlepool, was opened throughout on the 2d of June last. The connexion is therefore completed between Leeds and these ports, and the company is in pos session of 70 miles of railway. The revenue account shows that during the last half-year the gross traffic receipts were 18,2041., and the working expenses 14,448/. ; Government duty on passengers 481/. ; leaving 13,2751. as the net profit for the half-year. The balance left of last half-year was 442/., making the total disposable surplus 13,7171. Of this avail able balance the sum of 9,3961. is required to pay the interest on loans ; and the directors recommend that the further sum of 2,7131. be appropriated to the pay ment of the half-year's dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. on the preference quarter shares, leaving a eeha- correspondingbt yof statingftethe e thatof oifn p etr periodhois edh produce acp completioneef an o a ci f tnv l o opening very yo s ba lance of 1,6071. to be carr i e d f orwar d to th e ne xt half year.

The effect of the extremely low charges which this compan y had been compelled in self-de fence to adopt has consequently been to prevent its hitherto deriving those benefits which were anti cipated, and which are still confidently expected to be realised, from the formation of the extension line. The directors continue to entertain the same confident expectations as heretofore of the value of the undertaking. The capacious New Dock at West Hartlepool was opened on the Ist of June last, and extensive powers were obtained in the last session of Parliament for the improvement of the navigation and dock accommodation of the river Tees, and ulti mately a large traffic cannot fail to be derived from these sources. Much attention continues to be de voted to the cultivation of the local traffic, which ex hibits a satisfactory increase ; and the directors en • tertain the hopes of being able shortly to effect a connexion with the beds of ironstone in the Cleveland hills, from which a further source of profitable reve nue is to be anticipated.

We understand that the Rosamond, 6, steam sloop, in the West Indies, has been ordered home immediately, in consequence of the great amount of sickness amongst her crew. This vessel, as the Eclair, is known es the " ill-fated," and as the Rosa mond, when at the Cape, she was so sickly that she was ordered to the Mediterranean station, and now in the West Indies the same fatality attaches to her : there must, therefore, be some radical defect in her construction, as we insisted when she returned home as the Eclair, with scarcely en officer or man alive in her. It is right to remember, also, that the In flexible steam-slcop, just returned, from the West Indies, was as sickly as the Rosamond when on the same station. We corrected the statement of a morning contem porary a few days since, to the effect that the French had nothing in the shape of a screw ship that " could stand up against our Arrogant and Aga memnon." We sh owe d th a t the French bad as powerful a screw-frigat e as th e Arrogant, and that they had a 90 gun screw-ship, the Charlemagne, in com mission in the Mediterranean, whilst our Agamemnon bad not her machinery fitted. Since then letters from Toulon announce that the Napoleon, ship of the line, fitted with the screw, left that port, and pro ceeded to sea to try her sailing powers. She returned in the night. The Napoleon sailed at the rate of 12 knots an hour. A letter from Rochefort, of the 14th inst., states that the ship of the line Ulm, of 100 guns, now on the stocks in that port, is to be fitted up as a screw-steamer.--Herald. Captain Scott, of the Neptune, 120 flag•ship, at Portsmouth, has returned to his duties, after a months' leave of absence. Her Majesty's steam-vessel Cherokee, of 750 tons and 206 horse-power, recently sold on the breaking up of the naval establishment on the Canadian lakes, has been resold at Boston, United States. and has realized a net profit to the speculator of 8,000 dolls. The Cherokee, we believe, was built at Kingstown.

A plan has been recently submitted to Government and private shipbuilders by Mr. L. Armen, of Bor deaux, and Mr. J. J. Brunet, of the canal ironworks, Limehouse, with the view of obviating the objections which at present exist against iron vessels. M r . Artisan proposes to remove these objections by build inge vessels of the most app roved modern lines for speed, the outer frames and p lankin g to be of timbe r , much thinner and lighter t han vessels built enti rely of timber; and, within t he outer frame, building on il i r t e h n e tire e l n y tir o e f iron, also were also builtof proportionately ighter than c ifh iron.

The motion, having been seconded, was put and car ried unanimously. A PROPRIETOR wished to know in what way it was intended to rsise the new capital, and whether it was included in their guarantee. He also wished to know when it would be rni.ed.

The CHAIRMAN said, of course, if anything should arise requiring the sanction of the shareholders a meeting would be called. The company could not complete 120 miles of railway without further capital. a It was probable that a further sum, might be required 3', amounting to about the be present capital of o t w o soou c , ol complel., te t w e hn c h ha e dwd r iat a gi iol addition to luded t o i n the repor t , an d 1,000,0001. The hooks and accounts of the company were open to the inspection of the proprietors. He did not expect that any portion of the line would be opened before the year 1854; and when it was con sidered 'that the estimaTed - cwt of. thi;line was under 10,0001. per mile, it would not be surprising if that sum were exceeded, and in that case they would require above 1,200 0001., being at least 200,0001. more than the present capital. Mr. J. CATTLEY said, that whatever the amount of additional capital might be, it would be allotted rateably among the shareholders, and the directors would endeavour to obtain the best terms they could from the East India Campany for the proprietors when the time came for raising the additional capital. The meeting then separated. WEST DURHAM. The annual meeting of this company was held at Darlington on Monday ; Mr. N. Ple , vs presided. The CHAIRMAN stated that, pursuant to the reso lutions of the last year's meeting, he and Mr. Leech man bad succeeded in arranging with the bulk of the creditors of the company; and in a short time it was hoped they would be able to do so with the remainder. hut no dividend could be paid till that was effected. Considerable expenses bad been incurred during the past year on the line, in extensive repairs of the sta ionary engine at Tc,dhills, and in the erection of a pumping engine. They had also had to provide a new wire rope, and to relay the rails and sleepers on the incline. The traffic was satisfactory, and if the unsettled claims against the company were arranged,. it was hoped that something would be got out of this unfortunate concern. The accounts were then laid before the meeting and passed. The CITAIRMAN moved that Mr. James Pulleine an d Mr. John Buckton be elected directors in the place of Messrs. J. Kipling and A. Murray, di.- ceased. The motion was seconded by Mr. I'. E. ABBOTT an d carried. A vote of thanks was then passed to the Chairman, which concluded the meeting. DUBLIN AND BRAY. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held on Monday, at Dublin. The report of the directors stated that works of the railway have been re-opened, and are now being pro secuted to Dundrum, together with the extension line to Bray, with considerable spirit, and the reputation of the contractor was a sure guarantee of the speedy and successful completion of the road. A resolution, among others, was passed, authorising the directors to re-issue, sell, or otherwise dispose of all forfeited shares on such terms as would (in their judgment) be most advantageous for the interest of the company, and insure the highest valve to be obtained for the same. LIVERPOOL, CROSBY, AND SOUTHPORT. The half-yearly meeting of proprietors was held yesterday at Liverpool, Mr. H. Hornb7 in the chair. The report stated that the gross receipts for the past half-year exceeded those of the corresponding period of 1851 by 1,3901., or an increase of 12.52 per cent. The available balance, after deducting toll, working, and interest cha rges, amounts to 4,371/., from which the directors r ecommend the payme nt of a dividend at the rate of 2 p er cent. f or t h e half-year, clear of income-tax, leaving a b a l ance t o carry for ward of 337/.

He thought be could safely say that next half- year a dividend at the rate of 4 per cent. w o u ld b e proposed. He then m oved the adoption of the r e p ort .

For. with some satisfaction the conclusion of a pro tjacted arbitration on the merits of two actions insti tuted by Mr. Faviell, contractor, for work done on the h Burnley branch contract, and for money owing. e Claims of the plaintiff involved a sum of not less than9o,ooo/. ; but it was maintained on behalf . of . the company that so far from such claims having any foundation the plaintiff was indebted for excess pay ments made in respect of works subsequently proved not to have been completed by him. By the award of the learned arbitrator, it has been determined that upon this, the material issue, the sum of 4,776 1. . 17s. is due and owing to the company by beforelaintiff, and that such sum shall be paid on, or the Ist of January, 1853, and that, exceptng the costs . of the . award and the costs of the arbitration, which are to .he borne in moieties, all other cos ts shall bedefrayed in the pr o p ort i on o f , two-thirds by the plaintiff and one-third by the company.

Were the questions of less vital import.ance--were not so much of human weal and woe dependent on their right solution —the cynicism of the following remarks (which we quote from lobe Overland Eastern Star) would be amusing. As it is, they show how lightly the interests of the Indian population press on the consciences of the official class in our easterndo minions—we might almost say, on those of the .Euro pean residents in the three'presidential capitals. With few exceptions, the Indian press is in the hands oi" the army and the bureaucracy. Sometimes the &S -peen merchants and planters contrive to influence it. But of the natives it takes no note. If an official is unjustly displaced, or if his promotion is unduly re-• tarded—if a regulation by the Government affects. disadvantageously the pockets of merchants or planters, the Indian press goes straightway into hysterics and yells es if heaven and earth were - coming together. But it will *be seen from the following quotation, with what sublime and tin wincing stoicism the same sensitive gentlemen can endure the sufferings of mere natives : . TUE PARLIAMENTARY COMMITTEE OF INQlllRY.—No tieing in our last issue the suejscts with regard to the Company's administration of this country into which tae .Parliamentary Committee is directed to inquire. we had but time to make a passing allusion to the incomplete ness •of the list. Since then one views on the tutijece have been coufirmed by the perusal •of an aruele in the Daily News, who calls attention to what he describes a s " three very remarkable om/isions," which we detail in his own words:— t! In the first place, it is not by Government to ascertain, except indeed incident :Hy. ae far as it may be reached by examination into the financial and judicial systems, the material conditioa of the 150,000,000 of people who really ()Destitute India. " The next omission is of inquiry into the policies which have led to such immense additions to our Liaises dominions since 1834. "And, It stlY,' the Committee has not entered into any inquiry in:o our relations with the native princes within the cieele of cu r own territories." ' These may be "very remarkable omissions" as our home contemporary terms the m, but s it seems to us that it would have been far more remarkable if the Commit tenof Inquiry had investigated these important subjects with the slightest shadow of success. As for the condi tion of our 150 ; 000,000 of peoph-, whattn earth could a home Committ(e of Inquiry elicit about that? Why, even here we know nothing abourein __Th e local govern- 'inclit-consule themselves` with the refi:ction that they have done their duty; they allow thiesienaries to tatise cute their labours uninterrupted, and they have built and endowed a number of schools; and further they know or care notbieg. The mass of the natives of India are at the very bottom of the social scale, and, politicalty, they have no existence at all. No one appears to think ab out them. Even in Bengal—the richest, most fertile, and meat pepulous province of our empire—the disorganisa tion of the lower classes is positively without a p ara ll e l. Every one knows and acknowledges the evil, but twattempts are made to remedy it. Lew or system* there is none, save that which is simulated within a circle of a few hundred yards rotted each judicial Cuteherr Y• The country teems with those who make plunder their occupation, and who know no other. The peasantry are pillaged and oppressed, but they lack the spirit to complain ; and if they did, their co mplaints would be unheeded. A po li ce there certa i n l y i s , but its support is but adding insult to !njury, for every one at all acquai n t e d w i t h the Mofussi l must acknowledge that to the ryot a native police man i:W hie, greater detestation than an object of, if possi ble, dacoit. In the Molussil there ar e four elset:se—the z em i n d ars , th e po licemen, the da co it e , and the employ the dacoits, brib e the pol r i Y eem "s. The zemindars , and all these join in oppressing the unfortunateenryots. This is a bird's-eye view of the state of Bengal ' suppose the very s uburbs of the metropolis , and w e shoul i tl p that the other provinces are not more favoured . So has been from time immemorial, and refoem WO l oo k as next to impossible. We have , it is true, our Eunr°O-! pan judges, and collectors and magistrates: but how many of them, we should like ro know, are indepen_ dent of—that is to say, influenced by—their native subordinates? And how many of these native subordi nates are inaccessible to the soft voice of adulation, accompanied by the far more melodious clinking of a bribe? These are questions for the Committee of In qeiry to propose end have answered; but this we know, und this we say without fear of contradiction —a heavy purse and a flattering voice have gained far more suits in the Mofussil Courts than have ever been decided in fa vour of the humble and oppressed. Talk about the " material condition" of the 150 millions that constitute India! Why, the topic is eschewed with the most reli gions caution by the local authorities, and whence, then, is to be derived the information that should guide the researches of a home Committee of Inquiry? As well might they seek to discover tho whereabouts of tat mysterious of monarchs—the great Prester John. As we are still inclined to hope against hope that the investigation of the Committee may result in some bete fit to this country, we are glad that they have avoided a subject, the vastness of which would inevitably perplex them, and the intricacy of which would assuredly baffle all their attempts to understand it, as it has baffled the attempts of men, if not abler, at least possessed of far more light to guide their 'research. Leaving, then, the " material condition" of the 150 millions of India, we come to the next omission—that of inquiry into the policy which has so immensely ex tended our dominions since 1834. This we should re gard as an unpardonable omission were the case really as stated by the Daily News; but it is far otherwise. It has not been any extensive and persevering scheme of policy that has yearly pushed our frontier further into the heart of Asia. Our policy, if we had any, was ever stationary; but circumstances, " over which we had no control," drove us onwards. The Company's govern ment in the East may truly exclaim that they have been throughout their career the victims of circumstances— willing victims, perhaps, in some instances, but still vic tims. After they had first gained a firm footing in India, all that they now possess came in the natural course of events. They but took their seat under a teeming tree, and as the fruit ripened it naturally fell into their lap. Now and then they certainly dtd accelerate the work of nature by giving the branches a shake, but in these cases they were always urged on by some suddenly concocted idea, or some half-involuntary impulse —never by any settled plan of policy. As well ask why the time-worn and crumbling tower yields to the fury of the blast, as inquire why the worn-out despotisms of India have one by one bowed down and fallen befose the stem energy of the Anglo-Saxon. The tide of British enter prise once turned upon India—the barriers once re moved—it has silently but incessantly crept onwards, either over-topping er sapping and undermining all the obstacles that would check its course. What may be its destined boundaries it is beyond the power of man to determine, but certain it would appear that they have not yet been reached. All that our Indian politicians have ever essayed to discover has been the " natur al boundary" of the British Indian empire, and now the object of our search seems as remote as ever. Heav en knows in what re mo t e reg i on it may ' be eventually dis covered. The last subject of inquiry upon which the Committee are forbidden to enter—not the least intricate, and de cidedly the most unsatisfactory—is, the state lof our with the native Princes, within the_cire s l ey ere dominions. These relations are as ma nifold s ' complicated. Our favourite modes to oppose, rfseLe ed es i is briefly this: a native Monarch, finding view proffers thinks it best to conoiliate us, and wi th t hat alliance and friendship.

This can only be made good by extra tax ation, to which the people, suffering still from the destitution consequent upon intestine commotions, natura llyobject, and another civil war is the result.
