The above has ahvays been considered as a Manor Farm, having occasionally had a ao-li.vcrer appointed to LAtnid AND GENTLEMEN, AN Appeal has : been. made to a General - Court by Fortv-three Proprietors, against the decision of the Court of Diredors, when- the cendirel pf your . Executive Body was approved by a very considerable majority. 'We should have been satisfied if the business. had rested there; but a ballot lists been demanded, which makes it. our hull- . spensible ditty, not only to state briefly the nature of the question, but to explain the motives:of some of those who have been concerned in bringing.it forward. On it former occasion, when the Company applied for a renewal of their Charter, they experienced some difficulty, and even opposition, from the Public at large : Mit after fell disciassuin and mature deliberation, every wise and im partial person was satisfied, that India ought not to leccome a Colony, and"thatit could only be adininisteriel in a safe and beneficial manner, `politically as well as .commercially, thrtnigh the medium of an exclusive Company. After va rious contentline, and even opposite. interests, had thus ac quiesced in this general „principle, judge of our surprise to find. Forty-three Proprtetors come forward to contend for what, had been yielded by the Publiceat large ; and still more to find, that a considerable part of them, Agents to the Mer chants in India, were personally interested in the decision of the question. The demand for a General Court was 'after we had . prods teed a Report in defence of the rights, And even the existence of the Company, which all the ingenuity of the Gentlemen who called the Court, stimulated by the personal interest in the question which many of them possessed, has not been able toirepeach ; they , therefore attempted a very extraor dinaryenetieure, namely, that of - calling• forethe opinions of the high and respectable Charaders now resideet in Europe, who. have formerly been Governors General in India: This proposal was, however, negatived in the General Court of . Proprietors. . Such a reference would, in Eta, have been an arbitration bet Ween the Conitituent and the Executive Bodies, extreme: ly invidious to the great . and respeaable charaCters whose names were mentioeed on the occasion ; unconstitutiond in it self, and would have degraded the dignity of the Proprietors, who alone possess the power of deciding, at the same time that it wpula have proved humiliating to ourselves, after we -had sought for information from every cud - teen:lit source. The pretence was, .to brine home the surplus produce of India; in order to conceal, it not its real objett, at least its prominent feature., But this veil is completely drawn aside, in a Letter from the first Merchant at Calcutta to the Board of Trade,'at a time when the Merchants were not only en couraged to send their Goods to' Europe, but ships were of fered to convey , the same. He says, " It is true, that the " Compav ffer us toauage pot broods at this time ; but the great at objet? Is bring permitted to'send them ow own skip, ty " which PileXtr we obtain tbeTrofit .11freight, and have an appur " tunio.il leilleGtherwhe serviceable to our Pietas," , Shall British ships, hired by the . Company, and sent to India for the express purpose of bringing home the Private Trade, return with short cargoes, in order to gratify the • in terests and the patronage of individuals ? Experience induces us to believe, that the owners of British ships need not tear a contest with ' those of India, in regular times. . Whilee our seamen are chiefly employed against the Enemies of the country, their wages are high ; and Lascars will be folind, at a much cheaper rate : but will you suffer British seamen to be deprived of their bread for this reason, and for the emo lenient of persons resident in ledia ? On the other, band, will it be endured to sec those wretched objets, , who perish every Winter from the inclemency of the :climate, and, other causes, increase to an indefinite number ? .Their place fault be supplied, on the returning voyege, : by Europeans, who may quit their ships, And fill India with - the worst kind of adventurers, when•Lasears will again 'be substituted at lower rate of wages. A. moment's retleition is sufficient to perceive, that the return of the few reurainine Lascars et? In r ' dia, emaciated in their health, and depraveden their minds,. must prejudice the British name, and character in the eyes of tlie;Natives ; and this prejudice the mannerseind conduct of • European seamen, .carried out in Indian ships and left in the country, • must greatly increase. • Every considderation, therefore,- of humanity at well as policy, combine to prevent rogress of ovils, which will gradually introduce the colonial system, and thereby sap the totindanon of our Indian Enipire. The views of Mr. Derides on: the renewal of the Charter were. to furnish the means of exporting British manuteitures to the fullest extent ; to bring raw materials frolo rlt:t a ; to open full scope to the remittance of thrtunes from•lndia ; and finally, to crush,. or 'brine; to-the giver Themes, the elm,- destine trade. The Company now- effete without any limit as to the extent,. British ships to convey inenufeeinres to India, and to bring raw materials from thence. llf fur -1 tunes to ha remitted home wore double or treble the amount, the Conoerny would gladly recei4c the same in. India, to,be paidler in Europe ; so that there only remains the clinch:e thic trade, as to whith the least dueler can exist, On this subject, the Court, in their Report, trust I b y have demon strated, :beyond the possibility of eontradietioq; the very strialt inaignificinCamohnt employed in this manner, Corn- , pared with the , vast trade which has grown up .under ; the auspices of the Company - ; and even with the private.or pri vileged trade of individuals to and from India. It 'is oar this however, the parties interested have raised a clamour; .and having access to persons in .power, an impression has been made, anti opinions produced,' on Which, they 'fourel their pretensions. It is remarkeble, that amongst all the voluminous papers which have appeared previous to the la bonts, of the. Committee, not a compleat ,document can he found, and very rarefy the slightest ergemeht, in defence of the rights of the Company, or'stating the dangerous conse quences which must result front the indulgences for whish the Merchants in India.and their Agents at home contend. Wc May therefore venture to assert, ehae•the Compaq have scrupulously fulfilled their part of the ingagemeitt on the renewal of the Charter ; that they have been fete/ant, on every occasion, to extend, in the most liberal manner, every' concessionand facility consistent with a` " regulated mono poly," which either Government or the Public can desire.; They theretbre trust, that as they have strained indulgence to so large an extent, those rights and privileges which have been granted tar the preservation of their remaining excluslye trade, will not be wrested troth them, to gratify a very few individuals in short, that the rights of the Company, wino.' tioned by the Legislature for the adventage 'of the Nation, shall serve for more extensive purposes, than to cover an adual monopoly of the trade to .India, far the benetjt of Indian agents and Indian ships, which are the real objeCts of the parties. On the whole, we trust the views of the Dirators Will be fottnd to, rest, not upon - partial grounds. and ,exclusive rights alone, but upon great National foundations. •We cantiot, however, attempt to convey to you, in a short Address's, all the fads and ergennents which attach to this momentous que. ation ; still less to explain the extensive and dangerous con.: sequences which would flow froin the pretensioes of the Mer chants 'fettle, their Agetits and friends ; and which we are persuaded will, by degrees (if admitted), prove fatal to the British Empire there, and. terminate in the destruCtion of the Company. We must therefore refer to our Rert on the .occasion; and trust that your Votes, " for the Question oii the Ballot," will enable us to defend the Rights and ence of the Company, against a most powerful and datgeroui C.'ornbination. •• We have trio honour to be, • East-India House, Led* and Gentlemen, • lure t, 1861.

On these specific grounds, chiefly, the No- U.: and Learned Lord seemed to recommend the propriety of withdrawing the present sill, and in troducing a new one with as little delay as possible, to which that now befoi'e the Committee should serve as a model.
