LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY MOIVNI NG. —The Royal Agricul tural Society of Et gland commenced the business cif the meet ing by the exhibition of the implements of husbandry, and this day the show of cattle commences. There has been a.great influx of visitors from various parts of the kingdom, and in addition to the list of names of eminent agriculturists already given, I have to enumerate those of Sir Edward Knatchbull, Sir J.

A trial of implements was made in the forenoon in some fields of the Earl of Sefton, at Aintree.

The CHAIRMAN next, after alluding to the excellence of the stock exhibited on the present occasion, and to the advantages which had accrued to this country from the efforts and exertions of the Smithfield Club ; and after dwelling with happy effect upon the state of agriCultural stock 300 years ago, as recorded by the historian Hollingshed, proposed as a toast the winning candidates in the first class, and coupled with the toast the name of Air. Bates, of Kirkleavington, in the county of York. Mr. BATES returned thanks, and congratulated the numer ous and influential assembly by which he was surrounded upon the unanimous feeling which excited all present in their endea vours to promote the prosperity of agriculture, which formed the foundation of all that could be good on earth. He trusted that the efforts which had already been made by this Society would be increased ten thousand fold, and to those efforts he should be most happy in every way to contribute.—( Applause. ) The health of " Earl Talbot" (the next name on the list of successful competitors) having been proposed from the chair, and received and drunk with every demonstration of respect and esteem, Earl TALBOT acknowledged the compliment paid him, and proposed in turn the health of the " Mayor cf Liverpool," and coupled with that toast a sentiment which embodied success to agriculture and commerce. Mr. T. BOLTON (the Mayor), in responding to the toast, said, he was happy to have his name associated with a toast which recognised the principle that the success of agriculture and commerce must go hand in hand.—(Loud applause.) The healths of Mr. Webb, the successful competitor for the prize for short wool sheep, and of Mr. Large,. the winner of the first prize for long woolled sheep, having been received with all the honours and responded to in appropriate terms by those gentlemen, The CHAIRMAN next proposed the health of the winners of the third class prizes (the first breed of cart horses), and after repeating the names of Mr. Crisp and Earl Talbot, as success ful competitors in this class, begged to connect with the toast the health of the Eat' of Derby, who had, by the decision of the judges, been equally fortunate. Lord STANLEY, on returning thanks for his father, said, that he could assure the meeting that when he entered the room to-day, the thing farthest from his imagination was that by possibility he should have to return his grateful thanks for the toast of the health of one most near and dear to him in the character of a successful competitor on the present truly in teresting occasion. The description of horses in which he (Lord Stanley) was concerned, was very different from the description of horses by which his Noble Father had gained the prizes awarded to him this day, but he confessed, looking at the contrariety between the result of last week (alluding to the Liverpool races) and those of the present week, he must confess that though his horses might be more showy and speedy, yet after all it was more safe and sure to be the pos sessor of a cart breed.—( Cheers and laughter.) He had but little expected the honour and the success of this day. It might be that the farm at Knowsley had been managed with considerable prudence—with a laudable appreciation of the -value of the stock upon it, and though only two animals had been thought worthy to enter the lists to-day, yet one of them had been held to be worthy enough to carry away the first prize. He assured the meeting that the circumstance would be most gratifying to his noble father, and would lead him to in creased exet lions, in which he was bound to say his noble rela tive was not wanting, to increase the comforts and happiness both of his neighbours and tenants.—( General applause.) The next toast proposed from the chair was the health of the successful competitors in the production of articles of agri cultural mechanics—a toast to which Mr. RANSOM, of Ipswich, rcfpond , c; nmirist geneYal Ar ,lau•e: Lnl rAsLi.Y th n (.11 ~ llli' zea.,. meat of the agliellitwe .5 iii., e...ut,), pioi. s: c. %.,,,15 air ~,e , honours the health of the President, Mr. Pusey.—( Great applause.) 1 he President (Mr. PUSEY) returned thanks, but in so low a tone of voice as to be almost wholly inaudible to the re porters, but his address was most enthusiastically cheered by those who were near him. Mr. HANDLEY read the report, and having finished, he was asked by the reporters to favour them with a copy; the late Hon. Member, however, excused himself from complying with their wishes, on the ground that it was to be received for an agricultural publication belonging to some of the society. The report, however, was useless, so far as any information could be derived from it for the instruction of the farmer. It was formed P out of a number of com mun i ca ti ons specu l a ti ve as to the cause of the disease in cattle, some attributing it to the prevalence of a north wind, and others to a south east; but it was evident that neither Mr. Handley nor his correspon dents knew anything about it. The CHAIRMAN next announced that two prize essays, as to the best mode of improving the condition of agricultural labourers, had been awarded to a lady, Airs. Barker, and Mr. John Charles Mann. In allusion to tt-ese prize essays he men tioned the name of Earl Spencer and his family, who had done much to further the interests of agriculture ; and concluded by drinking that Nobleman's health, amid loud cheers. Earl SPENCER then rose amidst the plaudits of the com pany, and said that he thanked them for the honour they had conferred upon him by the toast, and for the manner in which it had been received. He was still more obliged to them for the increased support they htd given to the Agricul tural Society . of England. He was highly gratified to per ceive tl'at an increased number of members belonged to it com pared with the last year, and that its extension throughout the kingdom had become so general. He (the Noble Lord) had stated at the first formation of the society that even in those parts of England where the best mode of farming was adopted, improvements might be still made, and the results of the operations of the society had fully borne eut his ob servation. The President had told them of the progress of the society, but as yet they had not done enough to deserve the name of such a society. A great. deal, however, had been done by directing the attention of farmers to the subject of improving the mode of cultivating their farms; they had done that which he was sure all of them, who like himself were in the habit of frequently mixing in the society of farmers, must rejoice at—they had extended the desire for know ledge.—(Cheers.) Whether, however, the society would within a year er two lead to any great result was more than he could say ; but one thing was certain—it must ultimately be beneficial to all classes. When the epidemic which had spread among the cattle first became general, he thought that the So ciety ought to circulate amongst the farmers a paper which would teach them how to treat it. They had applied to some of the most eminent persons in the country, and having ob tained their opinions, a paper on the subject had been circu lated, and it had been attended with the best possible effect. He (the Noble Lord) thought, from the great number of cattle attacked, that by receiving reports from different parts of the country of the way in which the disease had affected cattle, some conclusion might be come to as to the mode of 1 treating it.—( Hear, hear.) They had heard the Report read which had been founded on the communications received from competent men to give opinions on the subject. Those reports (read by Mr. Handley) had been placed in the hands of Mr. Sewell, but from the contradictory and conflicting statements which had been made, the society had not been THE SUN, LONDON, FRID I V, JULY 21, • enabled to effect any great good ; but although the society bad done this, it had prevented many farmers from trusting to the quackery of horse and cow doctors, who, from their deleterious prescriptions, did so much mischief to the farmer,--(Bear.) The Society, he was glad to say, had collected a mass of in formation of the highest importance; they had a report re specting the turnip fly, which showed the fallacy of the com mon ncticn that the fly existed in the seed. The fly was an insect of hard skin ; it did not grow, and consequently could not be formed in the seed. That report showed the natural history of that species of fly. It was traced through its different stages, and the best means were pointed out to counteract the mischief it inflicted on the crop, and perhaps eventually the society might be able to point out means to check its ravages, for there were scientific men in the society who were assisting in the iavestigation, and they might depend upon it that effects would be produced of a very beneficial character. He (Lord Spencer) prided himself in t aving been ono of the first to recommend the formation of the Royal Agricultural Society, and he bad every reason to do so. when he saw the present meeting, and contemplated the splendid assemblage he expected to witness the next day in the pavilion. He should always have great pleasure in looking back on that period of his life, and should feel the greatest happiness in reflecting on the fact of his having been one of the first promoters of that society. The Noble Lord con cluded amid loud cheers. The CHAIRMAN then proposed the health of Mr. Smith, of the Highland Agricultural Association of Scotland. Mr, SMITH returned thanks: Several other toasts were subsequently proposed, and the meeting separated, L 1 1: 4 1 -1 1 - VVIA rr -4 4, 1 10;4 ?; -~~-- EXPRESS FROM PARIS. The Moniteur of yesterday announces the promotion to the Peerage of Counts de Latour Maubourg, Moittesquion, and Mathieu de la Redorte, of the Marquis de Labriar, Admiral Macken, and M. Romequieras. A telegraphic despatch from Toulouse, dated the 21st, stated that all was quiet in that city, but that seditious symptoms had manifested themselves at Auch, Cahors, and Montpelier. Down to the departure of the mail on the 19th, nothing was known respecting the measures about to be adopted by the ex traordinary Commissioner. M. Gaillard, the new Attorney- General, took the oath of office, in presence of the King, on Wednesday, and set out in the evening for Toulouse. M. De larralde, the Special Commissary of Police, arrived thither in the morning of the 19th. M. Maurice -Duval issued at Toulouse, on the 19th, the following THE BAJA OF SATTARA. In our report of the day's day's debate at the India House we weft linable to give the concluding remarks of Mr. nompon. As we feel persuaded the ease we have been the almost exclusive mer,ns of bringing so fully be fore the•public, will, at no distant clay, assume a feature ) of national importance, we insert tht t% heiusion of Mr. Thompson's spe ec h h corrected version of Captain Cogan's t able Propri e t or b e hi nd me Mr. TuomPsost, in co n ti nu ation, said—l must not omit, to notice th e comp li ment paid by the Henna= (Mr: Fielden), to the perfect disinterest e d ness o f t h e Government, i n t h e p ar t they R have taken agai nst the ' aja. "They had nothing to gain by the dep osa l o f the Raja —nothing. Though they deposed the Raja, they took neither hia silvers his ttld, nor his jewel s ; l east , of all, did. they hilt at the eaten .!,ion of territory; fill~-it is his brother, Appa Sahib , whom they hat e placed on the throne. What object, then, beyond that .of- just retribution, had they to pro mote r All this sounds mighty well ; but, what is the fact ? In the minute of Sir James Canute, dated Sep • tember 4th, 1839, there are these remarkable and signifi cant words, distinctly , holding out the acquisition of Sattara, as the certain reward of his deposal. Sir James, expecting that his conduct, in not immediately annexing the Sattara state, will be objected to by certain . members of the Government, says that if he has erred, in at once resuming the dominion of Sn nary., " the course, of events "iii, it , a fl•I‘ seer::, til . iii . (l a fair opportunity of reeti:ying v• lias, 1:la deel!ls_ , :i erroneous." ".Neilbt i'," saY: , he, ' il:( Raja about to lx: deposed, tar his brother whi is t,, bi,sul:stituied Iti his phice, have any childr. and ai;tl“-ii' period of life it iA not very likely that they will hereaft, r have any ; and I know of no other party who can plaiiii the succession by hereditary right. It follows, therefore, that on the demise of the new Baja, the Sattara State would lapse to the British Government—(Cheers) —un less, indeed, it shall be judged expedient to allow this line of Princes to be continued, by the Hindoo custom of adoption, a question which should be left entirely open for consideration when the event on which it depends shall actually occur."—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) And in the same minute he states his apprehension that, by a pressure of circumstances, entirely beyond our control (doubtless as these have been), the whole of the native States of India are, perhaps, destined ultimately to fall within the vortex of our rule.—(Hear, hear.) Here, then, it is on record, that the acquisition of the Sat tara State was one of the governing influences which de termined the deposal of the Raja. He was childless, it is true ; but he had the indisputable right to adopt. His brother was also childless, with the certainty that, no child would be born to him; to him the right of adop tion is denied, and upon his death (likely to be speedy from his excesses) his territories lapse to the dominions of these just, magnanimous, and, as they tell you, disin terested lords paramount of India—unless the fiat of these master judges of expediency shall then decree otherwise.; . What hope there is that they will so decree, may be extracted from the fact that the acts of Sir James Carnac received their " warm commendation." But the fate of Sattara is not intended to be singular. The doom of every other native state within the grasp of these lords paramount, is already shadowed forth while they tell you that this will be brought about by events beyond their control. Here behold the history of all the past annihilated Princes of India.—(Cheering.) Sir, I must say. a word on the subject of the amnesty offered the Raja, inasmuch as it has been held up in this Court as an act of superlative generosity, calculated to extort the admiration of all the members of this Court. Let us look at that amnesty. Its preamble contains an implication of the guilt of the Raja ; it sets forth that he had been misled by evil advisers—had committed a breach of the treaty—and had entered into communi cations hostile to the British Government ; and had there fore exposed himself to the sacrifice of the British alliance and protection. Nevertheless, he was offered an act of oblivion, and restoration to the confidence of the Govern ment, if he would sign certain articles with such a pre amble. Now, Sir, what is the-result of this attempt at negotiation on the part of Sir James Carnac ? The Raja declared his innocence, and expressed his determi nation never to sign any document which called in ques, tion his grateful and loyal attachment to the British Government. He nobly said to the Government, "You present to me the alternative of subscribing my own guilt, or giving up my throne and kingdom. I can sacrifice my kingdom, but I will preserve my honour."—(Cheers.) He had shown That these were no idle or vaunting words. He had gone into exile, and I believe took with him a pure, loyal, and honourable mind ; and I wish those who have sent him there may realise as strong a conviction of the uprightness of their conduct, as that which I be lieve eonsoles the Raja in his obscurity. But, Sir, sup pose the Raja had been the ungrateful, profligate, and treasonous intriguer that he has been represented to be, would he not have signed this memorandum, and, if ne cessary, five hundred more, and been a traitor still'? If he had been for years before carrying on hostile machi nations against the Government, would he not have readily, greedily have subscribed such conditions, with such a preamble ? I assert it, in my eyes there is some thing of moral sublimity in the conduct of this Hindoo Prince. There is a love of truth, a regard for honour, a determination to cherish, under all threatened evils, the testimony of an unaccusing conscience, which commands my profound admiration, and makes me wish that the example of this Indian might find many imita tors among his Christian rulers. But again, Sir, if Sir James Rivet Carnac believed him guilty of acts that deserved deposal, what right had he to compound with treason, and to offer this act of obli vion ? He either was innocent or guilty. If innocent, he was entitled to sit upon the throne unimpeached ; if guilty, or supposed to be guilty, he ought to have been tried, and then, upon conviction, he would have been displaced without sympathy, and the character of the British Government would have been without sus picion and without disgrace. But it was not so ; he was &lamed, not because he was guilty, but because he asseverated his entire innocence, and demanded—what English law grants to the meanest wretch accused of crime—a full, an open, and an impartial trial. As to the alleged treasonable intercourse with Goa, why, henceforth if any Hon. Member desire to raise a smile at the expense of the Government of India, he need but refer to the supremely ridiculous story, that the Raja of Sattara was engaged in a plot with the Portuguese Viceroy at Goa, to annihilate th e B r i t i s h power i n . India. That Viceroy is now at home. He fills a high office at the Court of Lisbon, and is said to be related by blood to the reigning Queen. A special mission was despatched to Lisbon to investigate the charge in a personal interview with Don Manoel de Castro, and I call upon a Gallant Friend pre sent to tell us during this debate what reception he met with—to tell us whether the ex-Viceroy did not spurn the imputation with indignant wa:aith, and declare the whole a false and foul imputation for wicked purposes. But, Sir this matter is not to be so dismisssed. I ask if, when it came to the knowledge of the Indian Government that this alleged correspondence had been carrying on for years, and they professed to believe it, they took measures to call the Viceroy to account, and, as in duty bound, gave information to the British Government that our Foreign Minister might take the steps demanded, to demand explanation of the Portuguese Government, a power in strict and friendly alliance ? Sir, I require to know if down to this hour any step of the kind has been taken ? And yet the Raja has been hurled like a traitor from his throne, on the ground that he has, in breach of treaty, and with the design of an enemy to the British Government, conducted a correspondence with Goa. Now, Sir, I place you, and those around you, in this dilemma. Either y ou believed this, or you did, not: If you did not, you cruelly, and without just cause, de posed the Rajah. If you did believe it, show us the proof of your having seriously, or at all, represented the case to the proper parties in this country ; or escape from the charge of having concealed meditated treason from your Queen and ber Ministers. Sir, if I know of Ithite; aim we shall leave our successors to take care of I themselves. Sir, this is neither honest nor loyal. This Company are the stewards over a don am which they arc bound to manage with all - the regard to its improve mcnt of which they • are capable. The - Company are not the proprietors of India, India is the property of the Crown and the nation, and should be managed for the be nefit, fist di the It:Lives Of the soil, and that for the adith tage of the entire population of the British empire. If by acts of injustice and oppression you &donate the feel ings of the people, your tenure of possession will be tran sient ; and losing the hearts of the people, you will next lute the country. you have taken from them. But if you pursue a . different course, a glorious and h onoura bl e career is before you. If you take pity on the impoverished and often starving natives of India ) nnd when my Hone Friend .shall bring forward his most important motion, shall take measures to revise and equitably settle the system of land-taxa tion in your Indian territory ;—if you will apply your means to the opening up of the infinitely varied resources of the East to the unrestricted enterprise of the people of this country, you will be honoured as the instruments of bestowing boundless blessings both upon the country ruled, and the people of the ruling State. Finally, gentlemen, you may deny justice in this Court, but there are higher Courts of appeal, and to those Courts most assuredly the case will be carried. Mr. Burke ex pressed his thankfulness that the proceedings of this body were, as they could not but be; under the control of Parlia l•rol. ;!: !V , • riim!!:11 don'y yon oblig..d to reverse yourdeeision. The w hou ii 4 possession of the facts, will rise as one man, and demand that the injustice perpetrated in their name shall be.re . paired. I beseech you, then, be wise in time. 'Let juS tice be done here. If not convinced of the perfect inno cence of the Raja, yet give - him the benefit of the doubt of his guilt. 'Remember— " To err is human, to forgive divine." I claim not for the Raja exemption from the infirmities common to our nature ; far from it. All I contend for is the total insufficiency of what is called the evidence in this case to sustain the charge of treason upon which you have dethroned this Prince. Hasten, then, to retrace your steps. What you do, do without compulsion, and without delay. Do what you do graciously. Remember— " The quality of mercy is not strained." Be neither ashamed nor afraid to do right. Fear not the consequences. You will be upheld, supported, cheered onwards, and - eventually richly rewarded. But if you resolutely persist in withholding reparation, then, respectfully, but explicitly, I tell you that the year 1854 is coming ; and that when you sue for a new grant of power, you will be told you have abused that which you have already been intrusted with, and the empire you have misgoverned will be transferred to other hands. (The Hon. Proprietor concluded his speech amidst loud cheers, having spoken nearly three hours.) Captain COGAN rose and said, Mr. Chairman, I deem it necessary to say a few words ere this debate closes. The Deputy Chairman, on the first day's debate, laid much stress on the alleged agents and agencies of the unfortu nate Raja, and quoted the number of lacs of rupees that he had expended upon them. I now, Sir, find in these secret papers my name coupled with 2,500 rupees (2501.). In last year's debate I stated to this Court that I was totally ignorant of this circumstance, except by rumour. I however lost no time in obtaining information, through the Raja's Vakeels in England, and I will now read you a letter from the party who did get the 2,500 rupees, which will satisfy: the Court that I have not quite made my fortune in the robbery of the Raja.—(Cheers.) " A letter from Htirmunt Row Goonajee, to the Vakeels of his Highness, the ex-Raja of Sattara, in England ; dated Bombay, 31st December, 1841.. " I have received your letter, dated England, 4th November, 1840, stating that I had sent for the sum of 2,500 rupees for Ca.)tain Cogan, from his Highness at Sattara, and the letters which I had written had gone from Sattara to the East India House, and became known to Captain Cogan, who desired you to write to me respecting it. " I now inform you, that at the first interview I had with Captain Cogan in Bombay, I implored him to assist in the matter of his Highnes. " Then Captain Cogan :replied that the Governor, who is coming to India, is a good man, and well ac quainted. with the Indian affairs, and who, no doubt, will listen to both parties and judge whatever is true, and I said that the officers of the Indian Government have broken the friendship between the two Govern ments, by deciding ex parte, but Captain Cogan said the new Governor will not do so. Then Captain Cogan proceeded to Arbustan or Persian Gulf. " I communicated this affair to his Highness at Sat tara, after which the Governor soon arrived at Bombay. Twenty days after the Governor's arrival, Captain Cogan returned from Arbustan, when I had an inter view with him, and acquainted him that the Governor intended visiting Sattara ; therefore, I requested him to accompany the Governor to Sattara, then he replied, if the Governor will permit me I have no objection: ac cordingly I wrote to his Highness, who then addressed a letter to Captain Cogan. The contents of that letter were, that Captain Cogan should visit Sattara, with the permission of the Governor ; this letter Captain Cogan represented to the Governor. • " I considered that if the Governor will consent to Captain Cogan's visiting Sattara, then he will require his travelling expenses. I thought it was not proper he should expend his own money upon his Highness's busi ness, therefore, I inquired of Captain Cogan about his travelling expenses, who replied, if I should visit Sattara, 11 will expend my own money, I dO not require any from you. " Accordingly I wrote a complimentary letter to his highness explaining the above interview, and recOsed a draft of 2,500 rupees from Ihirryrajarara of Sattara, upon Morotum 13alinuelitind of Bombay. I wrote for this money to maintain the respect of his Highness ; I thought it was not proper to let Captain Cogan expend his own money upon his Highness s business, and as Captain Cogan was not permitted to visit Sattara, I never offered him any sum. " The Governor went to Poonah, and after five or six days Captain Cogan went there ; then I considered per haps that the Governor will consent to Captain Cogan's visiting Sattara, therefore I thought of going there, and for my own expense I received 200 rupees from the sum, passing a receipt ; but I being confined with fever, was prevented going to Poonah, therefore I deputed Ramrow Vissram, the Karkoon of. his Highness, to Poonah, and gave far his expense 100 rupees from the sum I received, and the remainder 100 I used to my own expense, and the remainder sum of 2,300 rupees is deposited with the banker, of which you can inquire. " Accordinglo my letter to his Highness, stating about the expenses, I received the draft of 2,soo . lapees, but afterwards his Highness being dethroned and sent to Limbgaum, where he was placed in strict imprisonment, where nobody was allowed to go nor to receive,any letter, so I could not inform his Highness of the result, therefore his Highness must be unacquainted with this affair,, nor can I say whether his Highness, after reaching Benares, was made acquainted with the particulars of this matter. "All these five paragraphs are written in the spirit of truth." Now, Sir, here is the original ; I would recommend its being sent back to India, in order that it be tested by the keen-sighted and impartial Messrs. Ovans and Wil loughby. The most unjustifiable motives ha ve been attribut ed to Dr. Milne for assisting the unfortunate Raja.' I come not here to defend Dr. Milne. He can well defend him self ; but this much I must say-Is it liitely that one of your old and highly respectable servants, who has him self established, and still supports, a charity school in the village in which he was born in Scotland, would co vertly rob the Raja ? Sir, this fact is an answer to any thing thyt has been said on the subject.—(Applausio • !.. .• • •' • • PROCLAMATION. " Inhabitants of Garonne, " The events of which a part of your Department has just been the scene, have caus e d gr i e f t o a ll goo d c iti zens . How could I hesitate to accept the patriotic mission to restore amongst you peace and respect for the laws. The ob ject of our enemies is to overturn the throne erected by the revolution of July. I have often defeated these guilty intriguers, and you will assist me again to render them fruitless. What did we all desire at that exciting epoch? The security of the representative Government, the execution of the Charter, that is to say, civil and religious liberty, free. dom of opinions, and security in the exercise of those sacred rights. Where, then, is the guarantee of these sacred rights ? In the execution of the laws, and thereby, it is my will} as a citizen, and it is my duty as a Magistrate, to insist. This duty accomplished, you will find me disposed to listen to all your legitimate griefs, to repair them when constitu. tionally submitted—that is the object of thelCensus so much calumniated. Is it to increase taxation ? No. In telling you so they deceive you. 'I ho legislative powers emanated from you—legitimate confidence can alone decrease the contingencies of taxes. Members of the Chamber of Peers say, my duty was to rectify the facts alleged against the census. I have scrupulously fulfilled this duty. Believe a man who has no other law but honour—no other interest, no other aim, but the happi cess of his country—believe him when he declares to you on his conscience that this assertion, so calumniated, can have no other result than to subject to a law tax-payers who have hitherto evaded taxation, and thus to divide equally the burden of those who for a long time supported a charge which ought not to weigh uron them. This is not the true motive ; open your eyes, and you will recognise the hands of parties who, after having tried to upset a power which keeps them within bounds, would soon be at issue to divide the spoils of their im prudent victory. " Dear Citizens,—Listen to the voice of a Magistrate, made to perform his duty without hesitation, without weakness ; who believes he serves you in what you desire, as well as your real interests, by restoring the force which ought to protect you. Let your noble and intelligent city be indebted to it (the army) for the return of peace and obedience to the laws, which ought never to have been banished from you, and then our dearest wishes will have been fulfilled."

GUY FAWKES.— Mr. A insworth's historical romance on this stirring subject will be completed, and laid be fore the pul lie in a few days. A finer theme was never selected' by a novelist than the desperate plot of Fawkes and his brother conspirators; nor any involving a display of more numerous and more famous historical personages.

The quantity of rain that has fallen since Sa turday night has done a great deal of mischief to the hay that is yet out, and there is a great deal more than usual at this time ; but much more has been stacked in this county than was grown last year, and the second crop of clover promises to be abundant. There is very little wheat beat down by the heavy rains ; and we hope and believe that crop, generally speaking, is not forward enough to be at all affected by them.

Sir, I shall presently sit down to make way for others who may easily evince more ability than I possess, ter do justice to the cause of this injured Prince, but cannot feel more zeal or a more intense anxiety that the decisions of this Court may be such as .will do credit to the profession which it makes of attach ment to the welfare of the natives of India. But ere I retire I shall venture to make one or two general observations, suggested by the case before us. Sir, we have, in the course of this debate, heard much of expediency, and it would appear that in that one word lay the entire phi losophy of your Government. verily believe it to be so. From the moment that Lord Clive drew the sword for you at 'Madras, and conquered at Plassey, until no w , judgment you have regtdatedyour proceedings at home and abroad by thehavep to i ) o n ttchia asked l kl e ien o de f ,‘ e v x nh p oa e rt i s ency to the plum me t. Y ou . - Yon have not laid right,righteous ness but what is politic. You have too frequently turned a deaf ear to the demands of eternal justice, and squared your conduct according to that principle which has been, from the beginning, the bane and curse of the world—the principle of political expediency. Above you is the marble statue of the greatest (I wish I could add the best) man that ever swayed the destiny of India. That transcendent man bent the energies of his almost superhuman mind —not to the observance of the strict rules of justice, but to the accom plishmen t of the plans of a splendid ambition upon princi ples of political expediency. As your rule in India com menced so has it. continued, even down to the deposal of the Baja of Sattara, and the amendmei;t of the Chair, which asserts that it is not expedient to reverse the deci sion which has been come to.. Sir, if India is to be saved to this country, it must be henceforth ruled —not by the imitators of Lord Clive or Warren Hastings, but by men who will do justly, and love mercy, and carry the princi ples of private honour into public life • Sir, I speak here to-day less as a mere holder of India stock than as a citi zen in common with yourself of this empire, as one jealous for the honour of the British name and the integrity of the dependencies of the Crown. W e have, I will not say by what means, got possession of a vast country. It is populous, it is rich, it is capable of improvement to an in definite extent. How, I ask, is the honour of which we are so proud to be preserved unsullied ? How are our distant possessions to be retained and transmitted ?. Why, by one way, and by one way only. By acting upon principles of unbending honour ; by conciliating and attaching the natives of our territories ; and by redressing every injury which is brought to your know ledge. You may say we are the only tenants at will ; at all events we occupy under a very short lease, the re newal of which is uncertain, and though things may not .be altogether what they 'ought to be, they will la,st our to witness the catastrophe which I predicted, and the dis comfiture of the Bombay Government, by the execution on the part of the Raja of that determination which he repeated to me from the window of his palace as I bade him farewell :---‘ THAT HE WOULD SURRENDER HIS TERRITORY RATHER THAN CONCEDE THE SMALLEST POINT • TILL ms GRIEVANCES HAD BEEN HEARD 'AND REDRESSED.' " Was there the influence of any agency at this time, Sir ? No ; but you have here the • noble dictates of a noble mind. The only communication I ever made to the Raja up to the date of his dethronement was this : " Copy of letter from Captain Cogan to his Highness the Baja of Sattara, dated the 29th July, 1839. "May it please your Highness—l have been honoured by the receipt of your Highness's letter, and feel the high consideration your Highness has conterred upon me by this instance of your favour, and by inviting me to visit your Highness at •Sattara, should the Government of Bombay not object ; this I'should have had pleasure by doing, but circumstances render it very inconvenient. I hope, however, your Highness will keep cheerful. God will give you protection against intriguers, and his -Ex cellency our good Governor, Sir James Carnac, can esti mate the high character of Hindoo princes. If I were permitted, I would say to your Highness, attend in all respects to the advice of the Governor, and all will be well. " Your Highness's obliged and faithful servant, " R. COGAN." Now, Sir, is there any thing very treasonable in this ? —(Cheers.) But, Sir, had I been aware of the intended conditions of the Bombay Government., I would have ad vised him very differently. But, Sir, is it not extraordi nary, that whilst evtry topic. of falsehood and fabrication, too disgusting to be noticed, in the way of intercepted letters. have been sent to this country, mine is not forth coming ? I mention this, Sir, as an extraordinary fact. —(Bear, hear.) Admitting, for example, that I had been the paid agent of the Raja, would that have added to the Baja's guilt ? Or where would have been the im propriety in me,nnconnected as I am with your service ? But I, at the same time wish this Court to understand that the only money transaction I ever had in my life with the Baja of Sattara or his agents, until lately, when I assisted them to get away from thi s country, Was, that I lent him nearly t w o hundred pounds, to keep them from actual want, when they were left in abSolute destitution, and their a ppeals unattended to by the gentlemen on the other side of the bar.— <Loud cheers.). .1 now beg to tell t hi s Court, that I was proud to be the bearer of Mr. Hume's letter to . the , ex-Governor of Goa, at Lisbon. - I had two interviews with that no bleman ; they were brief, but to my mind conclusive as to the Rajas entire iiiiieeenCe. ' I can only here state the substance of what took place, but that I will do. — (Hear, hear.) . On I presenting Mr' Hume's letter, Don Manoel informed me that he had I.ifcri : ini correspond ence with the Raja's Vakeels i n Laclon on this stibieet. That he could not believe that the British authorities were serious jn stirriing that any intrigues had ever existed between himself end the Baja,--(Loud cheers.) He remarked that the very style in which the papers were couched,' independently of their subject, carried falsehood with it.—(Hear, hear.) That as to 30,000 men, which Portugal was to send to the Raja, it was well known that at that time Portugal :•ould not have sent 30, instead of 30,000.—(Loud laughter and elltiersg) I showed him copies of his alleged letters to the Raja, at which he laughed, and as sured me they were nothing but fabrications. If the British tiovernment really believed he wrote them, they must have considered him mad.—(Cheers.) He evinced much indignation, and complained of the very unhand some manner in which the British Government had used his name—(Lend cries of" Hear, hear")— and expressed his astonishment that a matter considered of such mag nitude should have - been kept so carefully from himself and his Government. The above, Sir, was the purport of my interview with the ex-Governor, though much more was said.—(Cheers.) I have perused, Sir, with great care, all the papers connected with this case ; and my attention has been devoted to the protracted debate con sequent on these papers: I do declare most solemnly that to my mind the Raja is as innocent of treason against the British Government as the Hon. Directors on the other side of the bar, who have signed his dethronement and exile,-(Great applause.) The changes have been rung over and over again by some of the Hon. Direc to;s, and their two steady supporters on this side of - • .etas) ELL, met here to confirm the opinions of the authorities before quoted; or are we "met here to question them, by the exercise of our own reason, and to form our own dis passionate judgment?- 7 (Hear.) I therefore ask, Sir, for specific evidence on specific points. The defenders of the Raja's dethronement bewildered us with quantity, in the shape of 40 or 50 volumes of it.—(A laugh.) But, Sir, have they followed the able and dispassionate course adopted by my Learned Friend the mover, or the Gallant Director, General Robertson, who have shaV. tered this fabric of falsehoed to its foundation? Have the supporters of the British Government attempted to unravel the 401.'s worth of evidence bought near Gon, containing the Viceroy's letters ?. Have they com mented on the perjured evidence of the native officers, or of the Brahmin Untajee ? No, Sir ; we aro called upon to swallow the whole 50 volumes, but to ask no questions. An Hon. Proprietor, Mr. Weeding, in the course of this debate, has told us, that my Gallant friend, Gen. Lod wick, was guilty of a breach of duty for circulating his letter to the Court of Directors. Why, Sir, this very letter, the circulation of which has given the Hon. Proprietor (Mr. Weeding) so much pain, has been be fore the British public for the last three months, through the medium of the House of Commons.—(Cheers.) The same Hon. Proprietor tells us that the Gallant General has committed his employers, by giving light to confi dential correspondence. Is this the mode, Sir, that this, Hon. Proprietor, now sitting in his judicial character, would elicit truth ? Are these the feelings, Sir, upon which lie comes to a decision on the guilt or innocence of the Raja ? If they be, I envy him them not. Are wo not . bound, Sir, to elicit the whole truth, and is not every honest man bound not merely to speak the truth, but the whole truth?—(Cheers.) Mr. 'WEEDING explained. Captain COGAN resumed—/ now beg to call the attention of this Court to a subject of the gravest importance, being the Sattara Commission. We have it distinctly stated by General Lodwick, that his colleagues (Mr. Willoughby and Colonel Oval's) would not allow the cross-examination of the suspicious and even perjured witnesses. Now, Sir, was there ever such an outrage on the common principles of justice as this ? Here. are three gentlemen appointed to investi gate a matter involving the throne of a helpless and de pendent Prince ; the president proposes a cross-exami nation of the witnesses, and is positively prevented by ' the before-named gentlemen. This charge is not founded, Sir, upon purchased evidence ; it is founded on the evi dence of an officer who has been an ornament to your service for forty years Ido say, Sir, it is the duty of the Court of Directors of this Company to issue orders to suspend from duty Colonel Ovens and Mr. Willoughby, pending an inquiry into their conduct.—(Loud applause.) Is this the administration of justice, Sir, that is to retain us the possession of that Empire which we hold by the thread of opinion ? I say, No. I could not, Sir, but observe with extreme regret the very cruel and gratuitous insult which the Hon. Director, Mr. Warden, offered to the unfortunate Prince whose case is under discus sion, and who is far distant and cannot answer for him self. Mr. Warden asserts that the Raja had been guilty of asserting a most distinct falsehood. Well may a man, who has been a party to the Raja's ruin, add insult to injury on the absent victim of his power. But the Raja is a Mahratta, a native of India, and therefore not to be believed. Does Mr. Warden speak thus of his own countrymen ? lam afraid to go further, Sir, lest my feelings should carry me away.—(Loud.cheering.) Mr. WARDEN here rose and explained that his infor mation was from Capt. Grant. Capt. COGAN proceeded, and stated that he would as soon believe the Baja as the Hon. Director or Captain Grant; that he considered the insult gratuitous.—(Hear, hear.) Now, Sir, a word regarding Ballajee Punt. In looking over the papers last printed we find the friend of this individual (Col. Ovans) addressing the Bombay Go vernor to confirm certain jagheers, given by the new Baja for one year's servitude to the Sattara State, amounting to 1,0001. per annum, in perpetuity to and his 'successors.—(Loud cheering.) Now, Sir, on what plea does Colonel Ovens urge the guarantee of the British Government to this personage ? On 110 other ground than that he had given them the information that had led to the ex-Raja :s dethronement. Now, Sir, where, in all the mass of evidence before the Court, do we find this man's name ?—(Hear, hear.) No, Sir, his name was too significant to be associated with that of his Prince. I leave this fact for the decision of the Court, with this explanation of the disgraceful agency that has led to all the evil consequences which followed.—(Cheers.) SERGEANT LUDLOW'S LAST.—Mr. Godson, M.P., the new Queen's Counsel in this circuit, was ac companied into Court on Friday morning by his son, a fine intelligent little fellow•, of nine or ten, who was warmly shaken by the hand by several learned gentlemen. Among others who noticed the child was Mr. Sergeant Ludlow, who inquired whether he was " any ones God son ?" " said Mr. Whately to the Learned Sergeant, who had risen between him and his witness, " that is a good joke, Mr. Sergeant, and now sit down," which he accord ingly did. - - THE FORCE OF IMITATION.—The force of imitation is immense in the young. It soon com pels the child to talk the language of those around, and do as far as possible all they do. Without, this im pulse, little advance could be made. With the impulse of imitation, there soon co-operates that of habit, and then that of belief. What we have done we do more easily, and, moreover, acquire an inclination to do again ; and what we witness, or have communicated to us by others, we gradually acquiesce in and are reconciled to, objection and repugnance declining by repetition of the facts or opinions, till ugliness may be confounded with beauty, vice with virtue, absurdity with sense, and what is prootless with what is certain. The disposition to be lieve is so strong in us, that experience only of deception brings us to doubt each other. The child believes all it is told ; and incessantly asks questions, necessarily be lieving that it will be told the truth. It soon may deceive others.; but still it believes implicitly. till taught by experience that others must not always be believed. . , I L., w ; 'o . ) , p,,,,,,,,, t ,,..0...,,....2...,y -., 11,...:;n1,'..Le_A;i, :1,:;..:: , and language, among those who asso c i a t e , so -that theme.. is peace, comprehension, and co-operation. Their evils are the absurd or detrimental views and practices of in dividual nations, sects, or parties, But in man's natural progress, the understanding becomes more cultivated, and intercourse between sects and parties becomes greater. We arc naturally impelled to effect everything morc easily and rapidly, and me ans o f intercourse, Whether by locomotion or signs, are advanced beyond all precon ceived views of possibility, and thus the distance between individuals and nations becomes a trifle. Hence each sees many things that it considers indispensable dispensed with by. others advantageously ; each sees many things effected better- by others ; one avails himself speedily of the improvements of another, in doc trine, conduct, and all matters of science and arts, and the narrow sectarian wretchedness of mixing with but one party, is more and more broken down. 'Thus are the evils of imitations, belief, and habit, at length corrected. Experience is enlarged, and judgment better exercised ; all are brought more to think for themselyes,—that. is, to become less and less the slaves of narrow imitation, habit, and .belief. Now each child, though it thinks and acts chiefly through these three impulses, and more in experience, and in disposition a' a i n begins judge.

May 11, 184 f, It is on-. titled " The Present Age.;. an .Address," &c., and its chi,E' purport is to point out the universal diffusion of know_ ledge, science, art, and comfort. The dismnrse. fits been republished at Glasgow; •by Hedderwick and Son, and is well worthy of being added to our literature. It is pregnant with that bright faith in the destiny of man, those noble hopes of his improvement, and that bound less confidence in nature, which have ever distinguished the wisest philosophers, and which well become the aspirant of immortality, and the being of an hour. We purpose to make copious etracts from this pamphlet,' as we cannot lay before our readers any more welcome truths than those enunciated' by Dr. Charming, clothed" . in a more pleasing garb. W 9 shall quote first what he says of the • DIFFUSION OF SCIENCE. " Where is Science now ? Locked up in a few Col leges, or Royal societies, or inaccessible volumes ? Are its experiments mystorioaa" - -fvvr a few privileged eyes ? Arc its portals guarded by a dark phraseology, which, t 4) the multitude, is a foreign tongue ? No ; Science has now left her retreats, her shades, her selected company of votaries, and, with familiar tone, begun the work of instructing the race. Through the press, discoveries and theinles, once the monopoly of philo.onhf.rs, have AI% • , •: is no longer listened to as a dream. Science, -once) the greatest of distinctions, is becOming popul4r. A - lady' gives us conversations on chemistry, revealing, , to-tlus minds of our youth vast laws of the universe, which, s#:l years ago, had not dawned on the greatest minds. 1 The school-books of our children contain grand views of the creation. There are parts of our country, in which Ly ceums spring up in almost every village, for the purpose of mutual aid in the study of natural science. The cha racteristic of our age, then, is not .the improvement of science, rapid as .this is; so much as its extension to all men. " But one of the distinctions of our lime is, that science has passed from speculation into life. Indeed, it is not pursued enough for its intellectual and contem plative uses. It is sought as a mighty power, by which nature is not only to be opened to thought, hut to iNt i subjected to our needs. It is conferring on us that domi nion over earth, sea, and air, which was prophesied in the first command given to man by his Maker ; and tfris dominion is now employed, not to exalt a few, but to mul tiply the comforts and ornaments of life for the multi tude of men. Science has become an inexhaustible me chanician ; and by her forges, and mills, and steam cars, and printer's presses, is bestowing on millions, not only contorts, but luxuries which were once the distinction of a few. " Above all, Science investigates the laws of roviai progress, of arts, and institutions of government, and po litical economy, proposing, as its great end, the allevia tion of all human burthens; the weal of all the members of the human race. In truth, nothing is more clittracto - of our age, than the vast range of inquiry wlOch is opening more and more' to the multitude of num. Thought frees the old bounds to which men used to con, fine themselves. It holds nothing too sacred for investi gation. It calls the pestle account ; and treats hoary opinions as if they wore k yesterday's growth. No reverence drives it back;—no` great name terrifies it. The foundations of what seems musst settled must by ex plored. Undoubtedly this is a perilo,:s tendency. Men forget the limits of their powers. They ~•Ltestion the in finite, the unsearchable, with an audacious They shock pious and revering , minds, andZni~ilnto an extravagance of doubt, more unphilosophienl and . r ""lish than the weakest credulity. Still, in this dange.'"us wildness, we see what lam stating,—the tendency P 3 expansion in the movements of thought." DIFFUSION OF THE FINE ARTS. " In the fit;;;;;;;see, too, the tendency to tinker , sality. It is said, that the spirit of the great artists has died out ; but the taste for their works is spreading. By the improvements of engraving, and the invention of casts, the genius of the great inuters is going abroad. Their conceptions are no longer pent up in galleries open to but few, but meet us in out homes, !ma are the household pleasures of millions. Works, de signed for the halls and eyes of Emperors, Popes, an/ Nobles, find their way, in no poor representations, into humble dwellings, and sometimes give a consciousness of kindred powers to the child of poverty. The art of drawing, which lies at the foundation of most of the fine arts, and is the best education of the eye for maitre, is becoming a branch of common education, and in sonic countries is taught in schools to which all classes Are admitted." After adverting to the attempts now making to diffuse education universally, Dr. Charming makes the follow ing remarks, which are probably as applicable to EA g r land as to the United State, on the DIFFUSION OF ORATORY. " If we may trust our newspapers, we are a nation of orators. Every meeting overflows with eloquence. Men of all conditions find a tongue for public debate. Un doubtedly, there is more sound than sense in our end less speeches before all kinds of assemblies and sacieties. But no man, I think, can attend our public meetings. without being struck with the force and propriety of ex pression in multitudes whose condition has confined them to a very imperfect culture. This exercise of the intellect, \1 hick has almost become a national 'cha racteristic, is not to be undervaluct;. Speech is not: merely the dress, as it is often called, but the very body of thought. It is to the intellect what the muscles are to the principle of physical life. The mind sets and. strengthens itself through words. It is a chaos till *- fined, organised by langtuw-e. The attempt to give clear precise utterance to thought, is one of the most.. effectual processes of mental discipline. It is, therefore, no doubtful sign of the growing intelligence of a people, when the power of expression is cultivated extensively for the purpose of acting on multitudes." We will quote only caepasacre of what Dr. Channiv says of relig ion, rcintirl:7ng that his observations can scarcely apply to the State religion, which is only an other name for the monopoly of State endownmen ts, and is adverse to diffusion and universality : DIFFUSION OF RELIGION. "One of the great distinctions of our times, is found in the more clear and vital perception of the truth, that t4ip universal impartial love, which is the glory of God, is tb ? characteristic spirit and glory of Christianity. To this we owe the extension of philanthropic and religious ef fort, beyond all former experience. how much •we are better, on the whole, than former times, I do not say ; but that benevolence is acting on a larger scale, in more various forms, to more distant objects, this we cannot deny. Call it pretension or enthusiasm, or what you will, the fact remains ; and it attests the diffu sive tendencies of our times. Benevolence . now gathers together her armies. Vast associations are spread over whole countries for assailing evils, which, it is thought, cannot be met by the single-handed. There is hardly a form of evil, which has not awakened some antagonist effort. Associated benevolence gives eyes to the blind and cars to the deaf, and is achieving even greater wonders ; that is, it approaches the mind without the avenues of eye and ear, and gives to the hopelesSly blind and deaf the invaluable 'knowledge which these. senses afford to others. Benevolence now shuts out no human being, however low, from its regard. It goes 'to the cell of the criminal with words of hope, and is labour ing to mitigate public punishment, to make it the in strument not of vengeance but reform.
