REDUCTION OF EXPENDITURE. In our advocacy of a Financial Reform, it will be seen that we do net seek to confer a privilege upon one class, at the expense of an other; but in our transactions, to apply principles of such sterling value and universal import as mast prove, in the fullest sense of the term, equally advantageous to all. We seek, in fact, to reduce, not the income, but the expenditure, of every individual. how this may be effected the following outline of our novel, yet well appreciated business system, will readily show. POSSESSING LARGE ESTABLISHMENTS in most of the principal towns in Great Britain, our cancentrated purchases are necessarily very extensive ; from this cause we arc enabled to obtain materials direct from the manufacturers, for cash, at prices cousiderably lower than the average. Our garments are de signed and cut by talented artists, and manufactured by experienced workmen ; our profits are calculated at a nominal per-centage upon original cost, and. the price is marked on every garment, in plain 1 :tires from which no deviation is allowed.

A Special General Meeting of the Proprietors of the East India Company was holden again on Fri day to resume the debate, which stood adjourned from Wednesday, on Mr. Sullivan's motion relative to the case of the Raja of Sattara. Precisely at twelve o'clock Sir Archibald Gil loway, accompanied by a large body of the Directors, entered the court, and Mr. Hors MACKENZIE rose to resume the debate. He said—When the Court rose on Wednesday last he intended to have said a few words, but abstained for several reasons. He felt that the question had been almost decided, and he felt too that everybody in the meeting, as well as himself, were almost ex hausted by the length to which the debate had run. Fur these reasons he abstained from troubling the Court with the observations which . he had intended to address to them on the matter in hand. From the Court having consented to the adjournment, he supposed it was their wish that this question should be fully and finally discussed, and that a solemn decision having been passed by this Court upon the question, it; should be, as far as the Court was concerned, set at rest. for ever —(Bear, hear.) For that purpose it was very desirable that every one should have a full opportunity of stating his sentiments; therefore he offered himself as en humble individual to state his opinion on the case. Hs confessed he had been anxious to join in this discussion, because he entertained a strong opinion that injustice was done by the Court of Di rectors and others, gentlemen for whom he enter tained a strong sense of affection and respect. He was not without hope that he himself might be proved to be in the wrong, that either he was mis taken in the general question, or that there were circumstances in this particular case that would take it out of the general rule ; and there fore he was not without hope that they might be able to persuade him against a strong -opinion which he entertained, that their orders were founded in justice, and that in executing them our Govern ment would not violate the great laws by which he believed they all desired to be regulated, and by which, perhaps, with rare exceptions, their Indian Government had been conducted—(Hear) —for he took it for granted that they were willing at once to say that justice should be paramount. There might be a question about the meaning of the word " para mount," but as to their allowing the justice of the case to override all questions of mere expediency, he imagined there would he no dissent. — (Hear, hear, and cheers.) Indeed, he should say as to Governments, there never could be a question, but in the long run, expediency depended on justice —and if that was true in ordinary cases, it was peculiarly so in India, where their strength mainly depended on their moral character. By the force of that moral character, and of their equitable and righteous institutions planted in India, were they able to rule and govern many a willing people in that country, consisting of many millions.—(Applause.) He had another hope, which be would not entirely relinquish, that if in the course of their discussion there should appear reason to alter their decision, that that decision was not irre vocable.—(Hear, hear.) He admitted it was a godlike thing for a Government never to err; but the highest human praise was when a strong Government, such as theirs was, acknowledged its error—(Ap plause)—when it retraced steps which it had taken in a wrong direction, and, throwing aside all meaner motives and considerations, said, " Come what would, justice should be done—(Applause)—we were wrong and we shall not persevere in wrong."—(Hear, hear.) He was not indeed sanguine enough to expect that an opinion deliberately adopted by that Court should be set aside by anything that he could say ; but still he believed if he and his friends cast their words upon the waters, they would not do so in vain. He had the highest respect for Lord Dalhousie, the Governor- General of India ; and he (Mr. Mackenzie) found in one paragraph of Lord Dalhousie's minute, a senti ment which gave him the greatest hope on this oc casion. He believed that Lord Dalhousie had been unluckily carried on to decide this question at tos early a period of his career. At that moment the very safety of the Indian empire was in some degree in his keeping, with the welfare of thousands and tens of thousands of people demanding his instant attention, he (Mr. Mackenzie) could not think that in a judicial case like this— (ffear, hear)—for a judicial case it was to a great extent—without the advantage of counsel, without hearing the parties, without all the advantages vvhich a public discussion gave to public men in this country —he (Mr. Mackenzie) repeated he could not think that Lord Dalhousie had given fair play to his admirable judgment—(llear)—and he believed. when longer experience should have operated on the Governor-General's mind, and he should look on this question, aided by the light of that longer experience, he would revert to the minute to which he (Mr. Mackenzie) had alluded. He would take the liberty to read an extract'from that minute. It was in these words :—" The Government is bound, in duty as well as policy, to act on every such occasion with the purest integrity, and in the most scrupulous observance of good faith. Where even a shadow of doubt can be shown, the claim should at once have been abandoned."—(Hear, hear, and applause.) Now he (Mr. Mackenzie) did confess, if his mind was not strangely constituted, if he did not altogether dream, after reading the dissents which the paper he held in his hand contained, the admirable dissents which did the highest credit to their Court — he said if, especially, that speech of his Hon. Friend Mr. Sullivan could be conveyed to his Lordship, if their remarks during that debate should be placed before him, he (Mr. Mackenzie) could have little doubt that Lord. Dalhousie would not think there was not only " a shadow of a doubt," but doubts ofthe gravest kind, that there were the most solid grounds for believing that he had decided wrongly. The right of the Raja of Sattara was, in his (Mr. Meckeezie's) apprehen sion, one that might be established in any court of justice; but, at all events, the opposite side of the question was one that a candid man would say did admit of grave doubts. He believed confidently that at no distant period Lord Dalhousie would consider that there ware such doubts, that the claim should be at once abandoned —(lean) It was, therefore, on that account that he (Mr. Mackenzie) was anxiou that this case should be fully discussed. There was a preliminary objection to which he had better allude shortly. His lion. Friend, the late Chairman, agi tated the Act of Parliament which restrained that Court from altering or amending, or interfering with any decision of the Court of Directors, supported by her Majesty's Government. He (Mr. Mackenzie) at once admitted the law of his Hon. Friend, but he must demur to the consequences. It was certainly vary important that it should be known that their Court acted on a higher responsibility than they owed to their proprietors as their representatives ; but the Court had a higher responsibility in their own con science to God and their country—(Hear, hear) — and although he (Mr. Mackenzie) did belong to "the extreme left"—(A laugh)—he had always maintained the principle that their Honourable Court should be always supported by them on his (Mr. Mackenzie's) side of the bar, and therefore he did readily admit the provisions of the Act in its fullest spirit, that they were not to interfere with the Executive Government—(Hear, hear)—but he could not think they were not therefore sometimes, nay, frequently, to discuss grave questions. As the constituents of the Court of Directors the Proprietors were fully entitled to instruct them ; they were fully able to give them the benefit of their various sentiments ; and he thought the Directors would be disposed to yield to their opinions when supported by convincing arguments, or at all events would be disposed to give them the weight which they merited. For his own part, when there was no pressure, when a case might admit of long delay, if he was in their place he confessed he should have a preference for the somewhat rude democracy of that place rather than seek inspiration from the more demure philo sophy of the precincts of Cannon-row.—(A laugh.) He had no doubt in this, as in other cases, the Directors bad acted for the best; they had thought it right to come to a decision, and he had no doubt that they thought the decision they had come to was the best one. He gave them the be nefit of believing they had done no thing that they did not think was right. The case was one that depended upon the Directors for its decision — it was not t he p rovince of the Pro prietors to do so; all t h ey could do was to proffer _ their advice. The Direct ors must decide it, without reference to the Court. T he Pro p rietors, however, had the right of either approving or con demning any decision to which the Directors might have come, when they assembled, as they had that day. Though the Proprietors had no direct authority or power, he believed that Cour t, if it would be true to itself— (Hear, hear) — pos sessed ver y considerable authority. He believed it might be fairly taken to represent that g reat body of the Pritish people who took the deep e st interest in th-< anirs of India. Hy believed, furLher, if their discussions there were carried on as he 11Ad been accustomed to see discussions carried on in India—with perfect freedom, not perhaps Without passing, when important intereite were at ;take, [PRICE SD. yet with courtesy and gentlemanly feeling— if such feelings actuated their discussions, he believed they would not be unimportant. They should be of such a character, for they took place in a free country, where public sentiment bore down the highest authority.—(Hear, hear.) The bar had no authority to dictate the nature of the decision of the judges, yet what judge of the present day—what judge since the time of Jeffreys would dare to set himself against the universal feeling of the bar. The judges' of England were far above his praise, but highly as he thought of them, he would not trust them unless they were checked by a honest bar and a searching public. (Loud chsers.) So he thought of the Government of India, which that Court was to a great extent, and, therefore, he thought if they formed in that Court a strong opinion in favour of the decisions to which the Directors had come, that the reasons given for results were ap proved of, they must be materially strengthened, and they might confidently hope fur good. Therefore it was that he was so anxious that there should he no angry, no personal discussion—(Cheers)—therefore it was that he was anxious, if in the heat of debate he should use one word inconsistent with respect to the Directors, that it should be considered as if he had not uttered it, as no such sentiment could come from his heart, and he would at once candidly and fairly concede to the Directors the right of think ing he was wrong, miserably, strangely wrong; and he was.sure they► would at once recognise his right to say to them, believing strongly what he uttered, that he thought they had - gravely erred.—(Elear, hear.) Therefore it was that he said, that though giving the late Chairman full credit for his knowledge of the law by which cases of this kind were guided, and bowing to his authority is all matters, yet notwithstanding his opinion, he considered that discussions in that Court might be most important, and that it was certainly one part of the constitution of this Company that this right, which he believed a most important part of the good government of India, should be maintained. • It NV'AS also a matter of importance, because they possessed no direct power, which rendered it impossible that they could there enter into • that struggle for personal objects 'which so much perplexed oligarchies at home. They could not lay great stress upon personal motives and feelings, because they knew that their decision would have no immediate practical effect. No, it was • only by the force of truth that they could expect to be useful; and when they were wrong—especially %viler' they were violent—their power was not legally but morally irresistible. It was• for these grounds that he looked forward to good and not to evil spring ier from such discussions; indeed, he believed suet discassions would form a good safety-valve fcr their feelings. It was a great consolation under suffering to be able to complain -- it was a strong security against tyranny to be able to petition. He knew from his experience in India that no right was more valued by the natives of India thin the right of petitioning. It had been his fortune to decide many cases, but he must say for the natives A* India, that when the cause was rightly h ear d, even if they thought the decision was wrong, there was no hostility in their breasts ; in the common expression of their language they said, " to be heard is to be ap • preciated."—(ClKers.) What he wished to impress upon the minds of public men, and if upon them it was doubly important that the natives of India should he impressed with the same belief, that no man could he injured without a hearing.—(Bear, hear.) They would then think highly of the British decision—they would submit to decisions, even if wrongful, without entertaining any feeling of anger or disaffection. Therefore it was that he wished this Court to be con• sidered as a safety-valve to all who thought themselves injured; and the more the natives knew that their cases would he heard the greater would be the security they would have for the government of India. But he did not believe that they were to be misled by mere talk; and, on the other hand, they were to acute not to know the real merits of the question. There were a few preliminary questions on which he would first offer some words. filis was not the real Sattara question.—(Hear, hear.) The parties were different, the point at issue was different, and the cause was altogether different. The parties were the family of the late Itsja, and the question at issue was one of public faith, the interpre ation of a treaty, and the consequences were of the most momentous kind. The bearings of the question were well defined by Mr. Willoughby, for he evi dently intended that the decision ssith respect to this case should extend to the whole of the dependent principalities ; and therefore ho believed, if the deci 'ion in this case was maintained, especially in the words used, he believed the decision would have the most important effect. (Sir J. Hogg was about :o leave.) lie begged to remind the lion. Baronet that this was not the interminable Sattara case. He !loped, therefore, he should escape the good-natured banter which a gentleman some time ago received at the hands of the Hon. Baronet. He wished it to be understood that he threw the old case aside; and, therefore, begged to recommend this new case to the acute, legal, and kind consideration of the lion. Baronet, .s it was a question quite irrespective of all that had been urged with respect to the guilt or innocence f Pertaub Shean. They had nothing to do with that. lie trusted, therefore, they would have the benefit of the lion. Baronet's sentiments upon this qu es ti on , because it was a legal and judicial one. He was only afraid if he went away it would be thought that he had thrown up the question in disgust as the "eternal Sattara question."—(Laughter.) Still it was not a ease he was ashamed to advocate, but in doing so he shoul-I rot detain the Court long; yet, when a man was on his legs, it was well known— " That one upon one suggests another, And still ez.e'l fellow breeds a brother." Ile case had been admirably stated and ably sup ported by the unanswered and certainly unanswerable speech of Mr. Sullivan. He did not mean to say chat he concurred in all the sentiments, but his state. merit that the decision of the Directors was unjust had his entire concurrence, and if he could bring himself to believe that his speech was full in the minds of the Proprietors, he should be ashamed to add one word ro the arguments he adduced, for he seemed to him to have exhausted the case. He merely sought permis sion to state shortly how this question appeared to him. Let them look at the ground of the decision of the Court (page 8)—" The result of our deliberation is, that concurring with you in opinion, we are fully satisfied that by the general law and custom of India, a dependent principality like that of Sattara cannot pass to au adopted heir without the consent of the paramount power." First of all, he should confine himself to the question whether by the " general Court custom of India a dependent principality like that of Sattara cannot pass to an adopted heir with• out the consent of the paramount power ? " lie had read all these papers minutely, and he had listened to what had been said from the chair with the utmost attention, but he certainly could not find a tittle of evidence to support that assertion.—(Hear, hear.) He had looked carefully through all the books and papers, to see if there was anything to bear the Court out in saying that Sattara was a dependent prin cipality, and the Rai a must the. efore have recourse tothe sanction, and not merely the sanction, but the consent of the paramount power before he could adopt a heir—(Hear)—nor could he find anything in the treaty to justify that position—a treaty, he would take leave to observe, not merely with Pertaub Singh, but he conceived also with the state of Sat tera. It was not a treaty with an individual who lived to-day and died to-morrow ; but it was the treaty with the Raja and people of Sattara, and they were bound, therefore, not to take it in a limited sense, but to construe it in the light of a treaty of p er p etual friendship and alliance with the people of Sattara.— (Hear, hear.)

But turn to what Kr. Elphinstone said in ails dis,.mteh, and the Court A ould find that there it was stated that adopted heirs were uniformly placed before col -1 lateral heirs, and that universal adoption.was claimed by the Hindcos as a right to which they attached the • highest importance, and exercised as a religious rite, and to interfere with which must inevitably inflict great injury upon all easses in-.lndia.—(Hear, hear.) Independently, too,"of this, the original Act of Par liament gave the people or India to understand in express words that neither the courts - nor the local governments would' interfere R ith the law of Succes sion, but without any such words:in an Act of Par liament their own good. sense and Wisdoth .ougha to be their guide in this inatter ; and in acting upon that wisdom hitherto .the Court. had , shown great deference to the feelinge.of the people of India ; .and for the Court now to tell them that heirs and suc cessors did not include adopted heirs was one of the most extraordinary opinions he had •ever_heard ofa— (Cheers.) But it seemed the , Court relied upon the Arabic words in the Mahratta version. of the. treaty, and no doubt the Hon. Chairman in guiding the Court in that respect was a good authority, but: it seemed to him, notwithstanding what had fallen from the Ham. Gentleman, that ;the words extended beyond heirs of the body, and he said, without hesitation, that according to the Common language of India, the'wordsfurzund and warisan implied in heritance generally. The third word, hayeem ma ham, properly interpreted, impliedeven more than that, and it seemed to him more than possible that it was put in expressly to meet a case like this. No doubt it was put in to meet any case of doubt as - to a succession, because it was more'than likely that at the tine the treaty was made the contingency was entertained that it *night be necessary to remove the Raja, as indeed they had done, and the treaty must therefore be receiVedAn the light as having been in fact entered into for the benefit of the state, and the Raja so interpreting the treaty ap pointed his successor, who at his death became his representative.—(Hear, hear.) With regard- to the expediency or necessity of the course S the Court of Directors were pursuing he would only say one word, nor would he attribute improper mo tives to the Directors; • but this he would say that, in their anxiety to pursue a course consistent with the duty of men of honour, and compatible with the interest and advantage of the Company, they bad acquired a bias unfavourable to the late Raja, mad in • order to excuse that course they had availed themselves of the Mahomedanlaw. The word warisan, as he had said before, was universally used to express in heritance generally ; and it did really appear to him to be absurd to put any other construction upon it without going back to the niceties of the Mahome dan law.—(Hear.) He was an old translator, and he could assure the Court that this was a common word used in most if not all the Company's treaties. He wished now to advert to the danger of considering the Rsja an entirely dependent prince. He was reedy to admit that the Raja was in one sense not independent. In one sense he certainly was subordinate, and could not exercise certain privileges without the consent of the Government, but the real point at issue related to the inheritance, whether the inheritance was dependent upon the will, or ruling of the Government, or whether, as tar as the inheritance was concerned, the Raja was entirely independent upon that point-- he had no hesitation in saying that he really thought the Raja was left independent. Any other independence lie did not claim for the Raja, nor had he, or those who agreed with him, any wish to claim more inde pendence for the Raja than what the law conferred upon him.—(llear, hear) Looking over all the treaties of Sir John Napier he found precisely the same words, " heirs and successors," and the same words appeared to ba employed in most if not all the East India Company's treaties.—(Hear, hear ) Therefore to adopt the Directors' view of the matter would be wrong and unjust, and to say that the inheritance in this case depended upon the \rill of the lord paramount or Supreme Government was just as absurd as if a man were to deny the inheri tance to a copyholder because he did not hold the freehold. (Cheers.) He freely admitted that the Raja did not hold the full sovereignty, but the title upon which he held his territory vested in him the inheritance. A better title could not be fbund all the world over than that which was based upon the faith of the British Government.—(Lotel cheers.) Well, then, upon such a title rested the inheritance in this case, and he hoped it would be respected, or the good faith of the British Government would no longer be relied on in India. He had looked, and looked in vain, for a single letter or word in the treaty to justify the notion that they were to have the control of the inheritance • and, as he said before, he really believed that, with the Hindoos, heirs, by the universal custom of their country, included th e chil- dren of adoption. Therefore he held that the Raja was entitled to inherit without leave, and was also entitled to adopted without leave, unless some special grounds and exceptions were introduced into the treaty which were not found here.—(Cheers.) lie had looked carefully over all the minutes before the Court of the Supreme Government of Bombay, and with all dae respect to the Court, ho had looked also into the able paper signed by one of their oven body—a gentleman whom he highly esteemed and whom he should always hold in the highest respect, and for whore opinion, by the way, he took some responsibility if not credit to himself, because that gentleman—Mr. Mangles ho alluded to—acted at one time in subordinate co-operation with himself, and he very much feared the Honourable Director might have learnt some lessons while he acted under him as a meritorious secretary which he was afraid would rather bias his mind in this case.— (hear, hear.) Like the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, the business of the office of the Ho nourable Gentleman was to collect and get money—honestly, he admitted, but still his main purpose was to get money, and the strict discharge of his duty to the Company as their territorial secretary, was most likely to prejudice him against the case.—(Hear.) The wisdom of their Government made their revenue officer look pretty closely after the public funds without infringing any private rights, if- possible, but still his duty was to maintain the public purse ; and it appeared to him that, actuated by such motives, the Honourable Gen tleman might declare himself hostile to this case. He believed when the must got into wine it seriously injured it; the hest materials were liable to be attacked in that manner, and he was afraid the clear intellect of his lion. Friend, when he came to decide upon a cause involving the interest of the public exchequer ; will be found to have been attacked by the must. But he did think that his lion. Friend, with all his strong feeling for their public welfare, w3uld succeed in maintaining his ground, for this was not merely a question of treaty, but of public faith.—(Cheers.) The same feeling or error ran through Sir Henry Willoughby's dis patches, but to a less extent, inasmuch as he confounded all tenures together. He admitted at once that there were some tenures that were subject to the control of the supreme power, and they must draw a distinction between that form of tenure and the present.—(Hear, hear.) Sir Henry Wil loughby, in speaking of tenures in his letters, alluded only to the jagha&ers, but that was quite a different form of tenure to the Rajas of Sattara.—(Hear, hear.) The jaghadeers were servants of the Government holding land for military duty, and though their in heritance was provided for, it was subject to great conditions. Whether they left behind them an adopted son, or a son of the body, a distinct investiture was required at every succession, which marked them as subjects, and showed that they had not the slightest pretence to any of those rights which belonged to hereditary princes in India. They had no distinct hereditary right, and they did not at all resemble any of those Rajas between whom and the East India Company— the highest power in India—a solemn compact had been made.—(Hear, hear.) He did think that it was very much to be lamented that Sir Henry Willougnby had so much to do with the decision in the case of the Raja of Sattara.—(Hear, hear.) There was a very pregnant remark , a nd he was sure, in referring to it, that they would not un derstand him as meaning anything dero g a t or y to that officer, than whom there was n o more honourable, with petty states against into zealous, and upright man—(ll ear,hear) but he re i d w n i a t v u d a s u t nl pre g nant, g N th -) e i rn ( w arning a s tr?koef made by a distinguished Governor-General relations subordinAte presidents inlndia.

There was the case of Tang( re, in which a decision was passed upon misinformation against the adoption ; but after a long series of years the Supreme Government came to a resolution to undo the act of injustice which it had committed. — (Hear, hear.) The decision in that case was one of great importance, and it showed that they, like all other men, were to err, but that truth and justice would in the end pre vail, and that past errors should not stand in the way of und&ng an act of positive injustice, and thereby adding to the honour of the British character. —(Cheers.)
