As to the converts to Christianity, which have been made under the East India Company's withering rule of a century, we suspect that the return must be pretty nearly nil, although the Mahomedans have been tolerably busy during the same period, and have probably increased their number by two or three millions. Now had India, for the 100 years that it has been under, the excluding system of the company, been subject to the Government of the Crown, Englishmen would have had free access to it, with power to hold the fee-simple of land on a certain and safe tenure, as they have every where else under the British sceptre. Under such auspices they and their descendants, whether creole or of mixed blood, along with the converts to the Cross whom they would inevitably have made, would have been counted not as now, by hundreds, or by thousands, but by hundreds of thousands, or even by millions. All such persons would, by their example or by their teaching, have proved the , most effectual missionaries of their own faith, and from the mere necessities of theiir position, to whatever sect of Christians belonging, the cheapest and the most effectual support of British power. That such would assuredly have been the result we may learn from what is passing in the present revolt, since we know that it is a principle adopted by the Mahornedau and Hindu conspirators to exterminate every man, women, and child of whatever sect or colour, passing under the name of Christians. Englishmen ought long ago to have been much too numerous in India for any mutiny or rebellion to have speculated upon their extirpation. With snob a body of settlers as we ought to have had after a hundred years of supremacy, it is impossible to conceive that we should ever be overtaken and surprised by a rebel lion raging from the Ganges to the Indus. It is not often that tient-gain a lesson of political wisdom from the Spaniards, but the qaestion of settle ment and colonisation, in so far as concerns their Eastern colonies, certainly affords one example. For the 300 years that the Spaniards have been settled in the Phillip pines, these fine islands have been accessible to every Spaniard, and Spaniards in common with the native+ are there landholders on very favourable tenures. The Spaniards and their descendants at present amount to 25,000, and these and their forefathers have converted nearly the whole population, amounting at present to 6,000,000; the native Christians being so strong attached to the Spanish Crown, that owing to there, the Phillip pine Islands may be considered not only secure from internal insurrection, but impregnable against any foreign invasion, so that they are likely to continue a colony of Spain long after Spain has lost the rest of its foreign dependencies. Even the Government of Spain, then almost the worst in Europe, has been wiser than that which we tolerate, but shall not tolerate much longer, under the name of the East India Company. The false policy, then, which, to a greater or less de gree, we have pursued in our government of India for a hundred years, may safely be averred to have led to the results for which the nation is now sorrowing. By says tematically discouraging the settlement of our country men in our conquest, we have virtually set our faces against the dissemination of European civilisation, and of the religion of that civilisation. By that false policy we have been left friendless in the hour of need, unsup ported, ignorant, and surprised by a conspiracy of Brah mins and Mahomedans which has shaken our dominion to its basis. By reason of that false policy, pursued for tbree-quarters of a century, the commerce of the Indies, instead of an advantage, became a serious detriment to the nation. It is high time then to repudiate and aban don it. Our quarrel, we must add, is not with mistaken men, but mistaken principles. We do not quarrel with East India Directors of the present or any other genera. tion. Blinded by their position, they no doubt believed thatwhat was profitable to themselves was equally bene ficial to the publio. LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 27, 1857. THE WATERLOO-BRIDGE MURDER. THE ADJOURNED INQUEST. The following appeared. in a part of our impression of yesterday : The inquest was resumed this afternoon at the Board Room of the Strand Union, Bow-street, before Mr. Bedford, coroner for Westminster. The first wAness called was Samuel Ball, He deposed—l reside at No. 10, Grove place, and am a general dealer. On Thursday night, October 8, between the hours of 11 and 12 o'clock, I passed over Waterloo.bridge from the Strand side. I paid Errington, the toll-collector, and bid him good night. When I got to the first recess on the bridge I palled eut my pipe and went back to the toll-gate for a light. There I saw Errington and a short female. Errington said to the woman "If you can't lift the bag, why don't you ask some one to do it I" I then saw Errington lift over a carpet bag, but I did not notice the colour, or whether it had leather sides. The woman had ale. a parcel with her. I saw her face distinctly. She was of sallow com plexion, with rather sunken eyes, and a mark like a mole on the left side of the nose. Her hair was like white, but it did not appear of a natural colour. The woman, passed me, but I soon overtook her and passed her. I did not see the woman again. On the other side of the way at the end of the bridge I saw a man sauntering along towards the Strand. By the Jury—The woman had a brown paper parcel, which she tarried underneath her arm. By the Coroner—lt appeared like a brown paper par cel, but am not certain. I was not close enough to her t. speak With certainty. Mr. It. B. Painter recalled, said—Professor Taylor has been associated with me in examining the remains since the former examination. On the day after the last sitting of the jury I made a further examination of the remains, the chief result of which was, that in ad dition to confirming my previous opinion, I discovered a fact which set the question of deceased's sex at rest. Mr. Painter having detailed the circumstances that led to him forming that opinion, added that in order to pre serve the remains in an unaltered condition, I placed the 23 portions in an anti-septio solution, but before doing so I separated a portion of muscle with some of the saline particles I before spoke of, and placing them in a bottle retained them carefully in my own immediate possession till I handed the bottle and its contents to Dr. Taylor for analysis. The examinations I have made clearly prove the remains to be those of a male person. Dr. Alfred Taylor sworn —I am a Fellow of the Col lege of Surgeons, and F.R.S. I have made an exami• nation of the remains of the body shown me by Mr. Painter, under an order of the Secretary of State. I have made an analysis and gone into the whole case, and have drawn up my report on it. It is as follows : " I made an examination of these remains on three separate occasions, ♦iz., on the lath, 19th, and 21st Oct. They were shown to me on each occasion by the divi sional surgeon, in the presence of Mr. Superintendent Durkin. These remains are part of a human body, and, making some allowance for the missinglportions, they admit of an accurate adjustment to each other. 20 pieces of the body were shown to me consisting chiefly of bones with the flesh adhering to them. The flesh had been roughly cut from the bones, apparently with the view of removing as much of it as possible, and the parts had been cut and Fawn into small lengths, probably to re duce their bulk, and to allow them to be packed within a small space. The trunk, including part of the chest and spine, has been cut into eight pieces ; the upper limbs have been cut or sawn into six, and the lower limbs into nine pieces. The deficient portions are the head, with the greater part of the spine, namely, 14 out of 24 vertebras (7 cervicle and 7 upper dorsal) the hands, the feet, and some portions of the left side of the chest. The whole of the viscera of the chest and abdomen are also deficient. [A drawing which accompanied the re port, showifig the missing portions, was here put in.] When compared with the average weight of the body, the quantity found is small. The 23 pieces produced, after soaking in brine for some days, weighed only 181 b. This is about one-eighth of the average weight of the adult body. These remains have been examined especially with a view to the solution of the following questions :- 1. The sex, age, and stature of the deceased. 2. The presence of any physiological or pathological peculiarities, in reference to identity. 3. The presence of any marks of violence with refer ence to the probable cause of death. 4. The general condition of the remains, with a view to determine whether they are parts of a dissected body, and whether they had undergone any chemical process for the purpose of preservation. 5. The length of the period which has elapsed since the death of the deceased. OF D ci l u i e ll s A ti s o E n D• sometimes r ary Arl t D o sze a r w it i l It is unnecessary raised on these occasions, whether the remains or any of them are those of an animal. Beyond a ll d ou b t they are parts of a human body, and there are no duplicate portions such as are commonly found when bodies have been used for the lawful purposes of dissection. The parts found belong to one and the same body. The sex is also placed beyond all doubt. The length and mas. siveness of the bones of the upper and lewer limbs, the marked characters of the ridges and processor, the form of the pelvis, the dimensions of the part called the inlet, the narrowness of the space in the arch of the pubis, clearly indicate that the deceased was of the male sex. This is confirmed by the remains of a portion of the anatomical structure of the male still adhering to the arch of the pubis on the right side. An attempt has obviously been made to destroy all traces of the sex, and this, so far as the soft parts are concerned, has been effected on one side of the arch of the pubis, but not on the other. These sexual parte have not been dissected, but rudely mutilated, and irregularly cut on the two sides after death. The firmness, solidity, size, and weight of the bones, the complete ossification of the ends of the long bones and the thickness of the shafts of the thigh compared with the space occupied by the medullary cwri tisa, are in a condition which show that the deceased had reached a full adult age, which I would assign presump tively, j u d g i ng f rom the appearance of the skeleton, at from 30 to 40 years. ll. ted in no part marks of malformation, e — b r o r i n Y e p o r L e O s G e I n O A L AND PATHOLOCHI AL IDENTITY. in disease,g that united which hadfrac tbuereens,p produced u o e mechanicald after Some of th e j o i n t s were fi xe d w ith th e sawn por tions of th e b ones i n an unusua l di re ction. death injury,h sawing.excpt The head of the right thigh bone remaining on the hip joint was placed or bent on the trunk at an angle of 45 deg. ; the knee was also firmly placed on this side at an angle with the thigh. The left arm (humerus) was fixed in such a direction as to be widely separated from the left side of the body instead of lying parallel to it, and on this side the fore-arm was firmly bent on the arm at the elbow-joint, at an angle of 45 deg. On the right side, viewing the direction of the bones, as fixed by the portions left in the j sints, the fore-arm was bent on the upper arm at an angle of 80 deg. On examining the joints, it was found there was no ossification or other disease to account for this firmly fixed condition of the upper or lower limbs on the right side, and the upper limb on the left side. So I infer from this examination that the limbs had not been relaxed since they Lad undergone the rigidity of death, that the body had been cut and sawn while in this rigid state, and that the mode in which it was sub sequently treated, to which I shall presently refer, tended to preserve the fixed condition of the joints as a result of cadaveric rigidity in a constrained posture. The small portions of skia remaining on the wrists and on the right knee are rather thickly covered with hair. M. —MARKS OF VIOLENCE. —THE CAUSE OF DEATH. The cutting and sawing of these remains took place after death. The cutting has been effected roughly with a knife, while the sawing has been performed in the shafts of the long bones with a fine saw. In one portion of the left side of the chest, comprising the second, third, and fourth ribs, with one-half of the chest bone attached, there is an aperture in the flesh presenting the appearance of a stab. It is situ ated in front, between the third and fourth ribs, near. their junction with the chest bone. It has penetrated the cavity of the chest, and presents, as seen from the inside, an opening of about 6 10ths of an inch in its longest axis, which is obliquely placed, but in• dined to a vertical direction. Assuming that this wound had been inflicted during life, it would have penetrated the heart, and have produced rapid if not immediate death. The muscles of the chest through which this stab had passed were for some space around of a dark red colour, evidently produced by blood which had been effused as a result of this wound. This appearance is unlike that produced by a cut or stab in a cold dead body in which circulation has ceased. The edges of the wound are everted, and this fact, together with the infiltration of the muscles with blood, which even the soaking in liquid for a week had not removed, lead me to the con clusion that this wound was inflicted on the deceased either during life or within a few minutes of death : —i. c., while the body was warm and the blood was liquid. There is no other mark of violence during life, or any other appearance in the remains which points to a cause of death. The deceased may have actually died from a fracture of the skull, and injury to the brain, or from a stab in th e a b domen affecting some large bloidvessel. As the organs of the chest and abdomen are not forth coming any opinion on the cause of death must be a matter of speculation. The ribs and muscles of the right s id e of the chest (which are complete in 3 pieces), when placed together and examined, present no marks of stabbing or fracture —any mortal wound on the chest, therefore, must have been on the left side. The first, fifth, and siseth ribs, with their attached muscles, are wanting on thi s a i de. There may have been stabs in the spaces between these missing ribs which would have involved the large b' oodvessels of the chest or the heart itself. 4.--GENERAL CONDITION OF THE REMAINS. The portions of the 23 pieces of the body presented no appearance o f having undergone dissection for the purposes of anatomy. The muscles, bloodvessels (which were not injected), and the nerves had been cut through without any reference to relative positions, or the respective courses of the vessels and nerves. The spinal marrow had been violently torn out of the vertebral canal, and left hanging by its sheath to the vertebra. The joints had been sawn through, evidently with great trouble, at points where a scalpel in the hands of even a young anatomist would have speedily effected the sepa ration of th e li m b s. Th e acromean process of the rig ht scapula or bladebone had been sawn through in order to remove the shoulder. The right clavicle was left attached to the upper rib on that elde---th e sternum or chest bone was sawn in a right line through its centre, while the cartilages of the re maining ribs, which are always cut for the convenient examination of the chest, were uncut. The left scapula or blade bone had been roegbly sawn through, so eel to leave the cavity of the shoulder joint (glenvid cavity) with the neck of the blade bone still attached, to the head of the humerus, or long bone of -the arm ; and the ribs and processes of the vertebrae of th e spine were sawn and cut without reference to theg anatomical bearings. The pelvis was sawn into two pieces through the centre of the sacrum. In short, the clearest exa mination, coupled with the knowledge derived from an experience of seven years spent in the study of ana tomy by dissections, leads me to the conclusion that these remains have not been employed for any Anatomical purpose whatever. . On the contrary, I be lieve that, from the peridetat which the rigidity of death took place, they have been rendered utterly useless for any such purpose. The flesh left upon the bones was brittle, and of a brownish• colour. A portion of this, as removed from the bones soon after their discovery, was delivered to me by Mr, Painter, and I made a chemical examination of it in his presence. It had not undergone putrefaction, and had the smell of salted muscle. It was submitted to analysis for the detection of those sub stances which are used for the preservation of animal matter--namely, arsenic, corrosive sublimate, common salt, nitre, alumina, and chloride of zinc, with the result that the only substance present was common salt. This was separated from the muscular fibre, and obtained in a crystalline state. The thicker portions of the flesh re maining on the bones of the pelvis, when cut into, was of a slightly reddish tint. This red tint was probably partly owing to the effects of salting. The superficial portion of flesh in the remains presented a brownish co lour and softened and corrugated appearance, produced by exposure to boiling water. The ligaments, tendons, the exposed portions of cartilage of the joints, and the skin on the wrists and right knee presented such ap pearances as exposure to boiling water for a short period would aloce account for or explain. The cuticle of the skin which was not in a state of putrefaction could be peeled off. The bare skin itself was swollen, gelatinous looking and curved inwards at the margin where the feet had been removed from the cellular membrane beneath. Such would be the effect produced by boil ing water. An examination of the swollen shafts of the long bones clearly shows that the marrow has been melted out and removed by boiling water from the medullary cavities at each ex posed extremity. The boiling has not been continued for a length of time, since the deep-seated portions of muscles do not show the changes which would have otherwise been produced in them, and the marrow is not removed from the centre of the long bones. The divided ends of the arteries, and the divided portion of the spinal marrow with its sheath, also show such effects as boiling water would produce. The cut portions of the arteries are opaque, hardened, and averted. To this exposure to the action of boiling water, while the separate portions of the body were in a state of cadaveric regidity, I attribute the peculiar fixation of the thigh, knee, and arms in a flexed or bent condition. The ligaments appear to have contracted as a result of the action of hot water and thereby to have retained the sawn portions of bone re maining on the joints in the position which they had acquired as the result of rigidity. The appearances are such as are produced by boiling water on dead animal matter. There is nothing to show that boiling water has acted on any living structure, while it is ob vious, from the effects produced on the sawn bones, ligaments, and arteries, that the body must have been cut up before the parts were exposed to boiling temperature. It is my opinion that the remains were exposed to boil ing water before they were salted. In reference to the portion of flesh which I examined, the salt was in such quantity that it was easily dissolved from the outside by cold distilled water ; and I am confirmed by Mi. Painter that, when first examined by him, parts of flash presented solid, gritty particles like salt. These facts lead to the inference that the saltingtook place after the partial boiling of the remains. The object of these two opera tions being probably the same ; namely, to prevent putrefaction, and the probable discovery of the remains by the escape of putrescent effluvia. The piece of flesh which I examined, as taken from the remains by Dr. Painter,had offensive kept Y.--PERIOD BINSE DEATH. On this point only a speculative opinion can be given. As the remains have been partly boiled and salted those changes in animal matter on which we are accustomed to rely for evidence of the period of death have been suspended. Still, on examination of the deep-seated parts of the flesh, and of the right hip joint, which had not been opened or disturbed until the 21st instant, has led me to the conclusion that the person of whose body these remains were a part may have been dead three or four weeks prior to that date. This would carry the probable time of death to the last week in September or to the first wee k i n October. Toe period may have (seen shorter th an this —that is, that death may bays taken pla ce more recently, b u t considering that the weather durirg th a t ti me was mild, humid, and favour able to put re f ac ti on, I do not thick that i t was l onger. Had death occurre d at a more remote per i o d, I s h ou ld have expected to find some visible changes indicative of putrefaction in the interior of the right hip-joint, and on the disep-seated portions of flesh o a the bones around the joint. CONCLUSIONS. en The conclusion s w hi ch I draw fr 3— this examination are— 1. That the remains are those of t least five feet nine sex, of adult age , and in stature o 8 . inches.A parson of the male f 2 That they present no olivai°logical or p atholo g i cal peculiarities by t'fi d• which they can be iden e• The only fact observabl e under this head is t h a t the porti ons o f skin remaining are thickly cove red with dark hairs on the wrist and r i g h t knee and that the decease,' was therefore, probably a dark , ha i r y elan. 3 That the remains no mark of disease or of violent injury infli cted during lif e) with the excepti on of one stab in th e space between the third and fou r th ribs on the left s id e of the c h e st. This stab w as p r esen t in a situation to penetrate the heart and to cause death. It presents the character of a stab inflicted on a person either living or recently dead. 4. That these remains have not been dissected or used for the purposes of anatomy. All those parts which are useful to the anatomist have been roughly severed and destroyed by a person or persons quite ignorant of the anatomical relations of parte. They have been cut and sawn before the rigidity of death had ceased, i. e. in from 18 to 24 hours after death, and in this state have been partially boiled and subsequently salted. The body of the deceased has not been laid out or attended like that of a person dying from natural whose body might be lawfully used for anatomical causes purposes. Th a t the person of whose body these remains are a part mayrio h a ve been dead for a period of three or four weeks i to the date at which the y were examined by me, p na mely, on the 21st of October. REPORT ON CERTAIN ARTICLES OP CLOTHING POUND WITH THE REHAINS. On Monday, October 19, arid on Wednesday, Oct. 21, var i ous articles of clothing , stated to have been fou n d i n a carpet-bag wit h the remains, were shown to me by Superintendent Durkin, at the Bow -street police-station, in the presence of Mr. Painter. Overcoat —The lining of the left sleeve in the arm -pit col lected much with blood. l se It appears to h ave col ve is cut or t orn up i n i ts length. On the col lar behind and towards the left side there is a cut, or sta b, as from a double-edged knife. - U n d er - c oat (Frock-coat) — This is comp l ete l y cut up the back from behin d, and in the hollow corresp on di ng mehthesr t e a . ineidheright to the left arm-pit there is a deep stain of blood. On the left side of the collar behind is a stab or cut as from a double-edged knife, apparently correspondi ng to the cut on the collar of the overcoat. Waistcoat—This is torn up the back. There are stains on the left side from blood (inside) appa ren tly diffused by wetting. On the top of the collar behind, there is a cut or stab as from a double-edged knife, corresponding in form and direction to the cuts in the collars of the over and under coats. In the waistcoat this cut was found to be in its long axis five-eighthe of an inch in length. Trousers—These are torn up at the back. There is no appearance of blood inside or outside. There are some stains of dirt and otber matters. Shirt—The right sleeve is torn up. On the left side in front there are eight cuts or stabs corresponding in number and apparently in situation to cuts or stabs in the under shirt. There was no appearance of blood about these cuts, either inside or outside ; but the front of the shirt, at the upper part, presented a generally diffused diluted with ess, such as would b e produced by blood redn water. Under Shirt (merino)—This is torn in its length at the side and behind. On the left side, and in front, there were eight cuts or stabs near to each other leaving the long axis upwards and a little slanting. The largest of these was three-quarters of an inch in its long axis, and the smallest one a quarter of an inch. There were no marks of blood about these cuts either inside or outside ; but the shirt was much stained with blood just above them both inside and out side in a direction towards the left shoulder. The blood appeared diffused as if .by wetting, except under one of the buttons where it had osnulated, as it d h oes w ea it issues from the body of a living person. There was also much blood (diffused) on the wrist of the left sleeve. The Drawers —These were cut up the back. There was a diffused stain of blood on the right side. In the waist, in front, there was a punctureor stab, about three eighths of an inch in its greatest length, such as would be produced by a sword cane. This apparently corre eponded to apertures in the trousers and on the shirt. The Socks—One of tkese presented on the inside diffused marks of blood. On one there was a distinct spot of blood sear the toes. - Half of a black satin neck-tie—There was a sligh reddish stain on the lining. CONCLUSION. The examination of these articles of clothing leads me to the conclusion that the body of the person who wore them must have been subjected to great violence. The stab penetrating from behind the double collar of the overcoat must have been inflicted with great force, as it extends through the collar of the undercoat and waistcoat. It is chiefly on the inside and on the left side, towards the left arm-pit, that the principal stains of blood are met with in the overcoat, undercoat, and waistcoat. The only wound found in the remains is a stab en the left side, which, by its situation, might have led to the effusion of blood. Assuming that the clothes belonged to the deceased, these facts appear to receive an explanation. The clothes have, however, been exposed to wet since they were stained with blood, and this creates a difficulty in form ing an opinion. The cutting and tearing of the coat, trousers and drawers at the back, and the cutting and tearing of the right sleeves of the overcoat, undercoat and shirt, are consistent with the assumption that the body had become rigid after death in a distorted position, and that the clothes were violently torn from it. This position is indicated in the remains, especially on the right side, by the flexed or bent condition of the hip and elbow joints. Some of the stains of blood present the appearance of having flowed from a living person, and this renders it, therefore, probable that the cloth es were on a living body w h en th e wounds, producing such effusion of blood, were inflicted. While there is nothing to prove directly that these clothes were worn by the deceased, they have, in my opinion, been worn by some one who has sustained sErioue personal injuries. Their con dition, however, is consistent with the supposition that they were actually worn by the deceased individual with whose remains they were found. (Signed) ALFRED S. TAYLOR, M.D., F.R.S 15, St. Jainee's-terrace, Regent's-park, Oct. 23. This being the whole of the evidence, _ _ The Coroner addressed the jury, observing that be thought they had sufficient evidence on which to arrive at a verdict, leaving it to the police to discover if the party was murdered, and by whom it was done. All the coroner's jury had now to find was th• cause of death, sex, age, and occupation of the party. What he now asked them to consider was the cause of death, proba , le age, and the sex of the party, because they had no means of arriving at his occupation. The jury, after a short consultation, returned the fol lowing verdict :—" That the remains were those of an adult male person who had been wilfully murdered by some person or persons unknown." The inquiry then terminated. HOW TO ESTABLISH OUR EMPIRE IN INDIA (From the Examiner.) The best way to establish our Indian empire on ire. pregnable foundations will be to act upon principles as opposite as possible to those on which it has been here tofore ruled by that singular corporation the East India Company. For a whole century our possession of India has been a mere military occupation, six parts out of seven of the occupying army being composed of the conquered races, and the most muticous and inflammable materials which could be collected together. No wonder that such a Government should at last have exploded in mutiny and murder, and with such prodigious havoc of public and pri►ate property. The chief means, by which other nations of all races and of all ages have maintained their authority over conquered countries, have consisted in the free and nu merous settlements of the conquering race among the conquered. But these are the very means which have been most pertinaciously and obstinately repudiated by the East India Company. Colonisation was the mode in which the 'little country of Greece spread its language, its artfi, and its religion, over Italy, Egypt, and Asia Minor. It was thus, far more than by its legions, that Rome made Italy, France, and Spain, Roman in lan guage, laws, manners, sad everything comprehended in the Roman name. It was the method followed by our Sagan forefathers when they conquered the Britons, by the Normans when they conquered the Saxons, and by the Auglatiormaas when they subdued the Celts of Wales and Ireland. All over the world it was this plain course that bas ever been pursued by conquering states. The Greeks pursued it in Africa and Asia, as they did in Europe. They planted a colony on the very verge of India itself, in the midst of predatory barbarians, unsupported by a mother country, and same 3,000 miles distant from it, they established a civilised kingdom which lasted more than three centuries. Asiatic coniuerorx have followed the sense track wherever they have made permanent conquests. In this manner, the Arabs conquered some of the finest parts of Spain, and although 3,000 miles distant from their parent country, held dominion over them for eight cen turies. The very Turks, still more remote from their original seat, and cut off from all commnnicabioa with it, have held sway over some of the most fruitful provinces of Europe for four centuries. Even the shepherds of Tartary, by virtue of the free settlement of their race in China, have been enabled to establish a dominion, and in general a peaceful and successful one, over au empire as populous as India. But the most pertinent instance of all is to be found in the Mahomedan conquest of India itself, to which we have on former occasions alluded. The original adven turers were a sort of marauding crusaders, composed not of one, bat of several nations, distinct in manners and language, and united by no common tie save that of religion. They settled freely among the native inhabitants, intermarried with them, and converted them to a number which is thought at present nob to fall short of ten millions. By these means, and with the help of a little occasional fresh blood from their parent countries, they were enabled for seven centuries to maintain their ascendancy over the Hindus, who always exceeded them iu number in the proportion of at least twenty to one. An Afghan dynasty displaced a Turcoman, and a Turcoman an Afghan, and it was not until we ourselves had lopped off the most fertile and pro• duotive province of the Empire, that a Hindu nation, the Mahratta, obtained a temporary superiority over the Mahomedans. Let us now glance at the policy which we have oar selves pursued in media, and which we are now reaping the bitter fruits. That policy has been the very antithesis of all that has succeeded with all other nations. We have not only discouraged the settlement and colonisa• tion of our own countrymen, but long visited the very attempt to settle with pains and penalties. The commer cial monopolists, in whose name the conquest was made, hoodwinked the nation and the Legislature, and made them believe that India was tale only in their own hands ani those of their creatures. Here are a fee, particulars of the legislation made under this pernicious delu,ion. By the Charter Act of 1793, the simple act of being found in the East Indies without the leave and licence of the East India Company, was declared to be " high crime and misdemeanour." In 1813, or 20 years later, the " high crime and misdemeanour" of being found in the East Indies without licence was re-enacted, and It was punished, for the first offence, by a fine of 200/ , or two months' imprisonment, and for the second of 4001., or four months' imprisonment. Bat besides the fines and imprisonment, the functionaries of the Company in India were armed with the power of arresting and eject ing forcibly from India any unlicensed Briton, or at pleasure to revoke licences without assigning a reason ; and if the arrested party prosecuted the Company, the proof lay on himself, and failing to prove malice, the law made him liable to treble costs. It was not until 1833, or three-quarters of a century after the ♦ictory of Plassey, that the nation came in some measure to its senses, and then for the first time were Englishmen enabled to hold the foe simple or land. Even then, and the prohibition is to this hour unre pealed, Englishmen are excluded from visiting residing in, or holding land, in all the conquests made by the nation during the present century, and these embrace some of the finest and most extensive parts of Bengal, and nearly the whole territory of Bombay. But this is not all, in the greater part of the Indian territory, fluc tuating, excessive and arbitrary taxation, bad police and bad laws, make it wholly out of the question for Eng lishmen to invest their capital in land, and the result is, that the number of British landholders sprinkled over our vast territory is very trifling indeed. The result of this factitious and unnatural system pursued by the jealous spirit of monopoly, has come t,) this, that the total number of British-barn subjects is India, not in the public service, amounted, accordinT to the most recent returns made to Parliament, to 10,000 —or, to be correct to a unit, to exactly 10,006, the India House reporter observing, on the return, that no accession to this number had taken place for 20 years. Nearly the whole of this number resided in the three presidential cities, where they had the protection of English laws administered by professional judges named by the Crown. Of the 10,000 only 317 were residing in the provinces, namely, 275 in those of Bengal, in most of which there is a permanent settlement of the land-tax, and only 42 to be divided among those of Madras and Bombay, where taxation is arbitrary, excessive, and va riable—under the first of those Governments, indeed, often varying from year to year. The little Cown colony of Ceylon, 1.60 th part of the area of Continental India, and containing 1-80th part of its population, has at present as large a number of Englishmen engaged in the culture of the single article of coffee (a branch of industry of little more than 30 years' standmg), as continental India has in the culture of sugar, indigo, and silk. The colony of Algiers, which has been possessed by France about one-fourth part of the time that we have possessed India, bad an European population two years ago of 155,600, or above 15 times as many as all British India, As to the number of the mixed race in British India springing from the union of Englishmeh with natives IRELAND. DUBLIN, MONDAY. THE LATE MURDER IN . TIPPERARY. , The Nenagh. Guardian supplies the followinh particulars of the shocking murder of Mr. J. Ellis, a brief account of which appeared in The Sun of Monday : "Tem - plemore, Oct. 23.--I have just time to state that Mr. J. Ellis, steward to Mr. J. Trant, Doves, was brutally murdered last night on his way home from this town. He arrived here by the 4 o'clock train from Dublin and left shortly on his own car, which had been in waiting at the station for his residence. When he arrived at Kilrush -- -- they found some bushes placed across the road, which the servant got.clown to take out of the way. He had scarcely stooped to remove the obstruction when his master was fired at from behind the ditch, and he received the contents of the piece, which was heavily loaded with slugs, through the body. He lived only an hou r a ft er . • I have not heard if any person is yet arrested for the offence, but the police are on the alert, and I hope their efforts to secure the assassin will prove effectual. Mr. Ellis was a respectable and unoffending man. He was a native of Scotland, but had been for a number of years iu the employment of Mr. Trant„ by whom he was respected for his integrity arid upright dis charge of his duties, and he is said to have been well liked by those who had immediate dealing with him ; but what mattered that in the estimation of Tipperary murderers ? Mr. Ellis purchased lately property in the Encumbered Estates Court, and on the place coming into his hands he was compelled to evict some tenants. This is the only cause that can be assigned for the bloody and foul deed which has left a widow and, as I understand, nine help less orphans to lament the untimely end, and mourn the irreparable loss of a loving husband and a good father." Another account says :—" As Mr. Ellis, steward to Mr. John Trant, Dovea, was proceeding to his residence at Killahara, from this town on Thurs day night, after returning from Dublin by the 11 p.m. train, and while he was proceeding down a narrow road leading to his dwelling, ho was fired at from behind a hedge on the right hand side of the road, and killed on the spot,several slugs having entered the unfortunate man's body, causing in stantaneous death. The midnight assassins laid their hellish plan well. Bushes were previously laid across the road so as to intercept Mr. Ellis's pas sage, and it was while his servant had alighted to remove the obstruction the bloody deed was com mitted. Nothing has been seen or heard of the perpetrators since. The only motive that can be assigned for this heinous crime is that deceased had served an ejectment process against a tenant of his. Mr. Ellis had a sum of 901. in his pocket, but re venge not plunder seems to have been the object, for the money was not touched." MR LATE GTII ROYAL IRISH DRAGOONS.. It is stated that Col. Dunne, the late member for Portarlington, has positively made an offer to the Horse Guards to raise in a short time, so as to be available for immediate active service, a regi• went of Irish dragoons to fill the vacuum in the army list between the 4th Light Dragoons and the 6th Enniskillens. The reduction of the Irish con stabulary now being effected would probably be the means of furnishing a considerable number of recruits of the very best class for such a regiment —fall, well-formed fellows, requiring comparatively but little drilling to render them efficient cavalry soldiers. Many of these men are already making preparations to depart for the United States, arid the question is whether it might not be well to afford them a fair opportunity to serve their country by joining the ranks of a corps to be c.)mposed, if such be the national desire, exclusively of Irishmen Y The Leinster Express, which has initiatd.l the move ment, gives the following sketch of the late sth Dragoons, and the causes which led to its disband ment : " The sth Royal Irish Dragoons were raised. in 1688, and served with distinction under Marl borough ; and no regiment in her Majesty's service pursued a more glorious career up to the period of .its precipitate disembodiment. We have documen tary evidence before us to prove that the charge of disloyalty, upon which the regiment was disbanded, was at best very partial. The regiment haviugbeen very much reduced in numbers at the close of the Irish rebellion, in which they fought with bravery at Ross, Larkin-hill, Vinegar-hill, and Ballym"re Eustace ; but being obliged, from the losses they sustained, to recruit their numbers, several persons who had been involved in that insurrection, bein,f desirous to escape detection, on its suppression enlisted in the sth. Two deserters named Feeny, having been taken prisoners for a robbery, were admitted as evidence that a conspiracy existed in, t n n e e to the regiment, and, although amongi s reasonable the now w suppose that disloyalty prevailed accessions, it does certainly appear rather harsh that a regiment, which bad for over a century proved itself equal in all the proud and honourable distice tions of brave soldiers, should be for ever con demned.. They were disbanded for disloyalty, and their place in the Army List remains a blank, an insult to the Irish nation, which will scarcely be deemed just by those who will look at the colours of the 18th, 87th, 88th, or the standard of the Bth Hussars, or 4th Dragoon Guards, not to calcul a t e the victories which decorate the b designated w in e e r n e ts woilbythe English and aid of Irish ioldiers, of many of thos e corps are chiefly composed.'' which yTetT of F t It h e A "U w D swindler.

He said that Moore.was the tenant of a house, stores, and bonded warehouse in Skipper-street, but his interest in that he considered to be merely nominal. In the front office of the shop there were ' 24 bags of cloverseed; worth about 1001. ; there were in the bonded warehouse 137 packages of tea, the value of which, without the duty, he estimated at about 600/. He could not tell whether that tea was Moore's own ; but, finding it there, he took for granted, until the contrary had been proved, that it was Moo r e' s . Th ere were i n th e y ar d six casks of starch, which he valued at 18/. There were two packages of coffee, valued for about 15/. He coast dered the furniture, gas-fittings, desks, &e., in the house, worth about 401. So far as he could ascertain from Moore's books, between bills or one thing or another, there was about 1,0001. due to Moore, but he could not state what claims might be against him. In the whole, the property supposed- to belong to Moore amounted to 1,7731. He did not know that there was any balance to Moor's credit in the bank. Mr. George Carruthers being examined, stated that Mr. Geoghegan, of the Bank of I re l an d , held a security of M o ose's for • 700/., on which 1407 had been advanced. Mr. Geoghegan said it could not be expected that 'he would deliver up this document till all the bills drawn by Moore had been_ paid, but he thought they all would be paid. In answer to Mr. Oar ruthers,-Mr. Godfrey said, that 256 packages of tea had been-moved by the Customs' authorities from Moore's bonding stores to the Custom-house stores. These 256 packages were valued for about 1,0001. Mr. Young inquired why the Customs' authorities took away these 256 packages and allowed 137 to remain in Moore's store 4 Mr. Godfrey replied, that it was because the former were warehoused by Moore, while the latter were not. Mr. Smith said. that by the Customs' laws the authorities considered the 256 p tukages forfeited. A qu-stion was then raised by Mr. Young and other jurors as to whe ther certain wines, brandies, (Sm. bel.'ngiug to Mr. Samuel Gelstou, and warehoused in a store of Moore's rented by Mr. Geloon, and of whi c h he kept the key, should not, prima facie, he con sidered as Moore's property as well as the teas found in Moore's stores, and ultimately it was ruled that they should he so co7 , sliered. Mr. Gel. ston, who at first refus9d to attend the inquisition, ultimately came, at the request of the sun -sheriff. He said he knew nothing of Moore, and declared that he could not form any estimate of the value of his wines and spirits, but they were worth,-he should say, at all events, 2,0001. The jury ulti mately found that there were 256 packages of tea in the Custom-house, removed from Moore's store, of the value of 1,000/. ; that there was at present in the hands of the manager of the Bank of Ireland a ce t tin security or charge on lauds in Ireland, on which the directors of the Bank of Ireland have a lien, and which the jurors valued at 700/., less 140/., leaving 560/. as a balance ; and the jurors further said that, at the time of taking the inqui sition, there were certain wines and spirits in a cellar of the said John James Moore's store, which wines and spirits have been claimed by Samuel Geleton as having been bonded by hie), and in his name, and they found that these wines and spirits were of the value of, and did appraise them at the sum of, 2,000/."

The Crown has sustained another defeat in the attempt to make James Spollen amenable to jas• Coe. The commission was opened to-day before Barons Greene and Richards, and the Utter having deli vered his charge, the grand jury retired to consider the several bills sent up before them. After an absence of about two hours, they returned into court, and the foreman announced that they had found "No bill" in the case of James Spollen, charged with the robbery of the late Mr. Little. Spollen is to be discharged from custody in th e ordinary course at the close of the commission; and so ends the Broadstone tragedy. THE INDIAN MUTINIES. -- The following is from au officer serving before Delhi : " Camp before Delhi, Aug. 26. "My dear father,-Since I last wro t e t 4 you I have had such hard, work and such exposure as I never had before in my long life, but, thank Hea ven, here I am safe and sound and back again in camp. Hodson was sent out with his new regi ment, and a squadron of the Guides, 104 strong, under me, to watch a large party of the enemy who had gone*into the R)htuk district. Our force was in all about 350 cavalry—all, except the Guides, belonging to Hodson's own corps. The officers were Hodson, commanding, Ward, Wise, M`Dowell, Hugh, and myself. The first day we marched to 1 a place called Khurkonda, but such a march 1 We had to go through water for miles up to the horses' girths. We took Khurkonda by surprise, and Hodson immediately placed men over the gates and we went in: Shot one scoundrel instanter cut down an o th er , and took,a Ressaldar (native' officer), and .some Sowers (troopers) prisoners, and came to a house occupied by some more , who would n o t l et us in at all ; at last, we rushed in and found the rascals had taken to the upper story, and still kept us at bay. There was only one door and a kirkee (window) ; I shoved in my head through the door, with a p is t o l in my hand, and got a c lip over my turban tor nay pains ; my pistol, missed fire at the man's breast (you must seed me a revolver), so I got out of that as fast 1 could, and then tried the kirkee with the other barrel, and very nearly got another cut. We tried every means to get in, but could not, so we fired the house, and out they rushed a muck among us. The first fellow went at Hugh (the writer's brother) who wounded him, butt somehow or o her he slipped . and fell on his back. I saw him fall, and thinking he was hurt rushed to the rescue. A. Guide got a chop at the fellow, and I gav e hi m such a swi ng i ng b ac k-b ander that , he fell dead. I then went at another fellow rushing by my left, and sent my, sword through him, like butter, and bagged him. , I then looked round and saw a sword come crash on the shoulders of a poor little boy ; oh, such a cut, and up went the sword again, and the next moment the boy would have been in eternity, but I ran forward and covered him with my swerd and saved him. During this it was over with seven men. Ward had shot one with his revolver, and the other four were cut down at once. Hugh I found was all right, only a slight out just above the wrist. Having polished off these fellows, we held an impromptu court-martial, on those we had, taken, and shot them all—murderers every one, who were justly rewarded for their deeds. Next day we continued our march and got to Rohtuk on. the 17th of August, where some Sowars and the people of the town turned out against us, but fled like sheep before the Guides led by Hugh and my self, but we managed to cut up 13 of them. Nei morning we were surprised to find a party of Sowars galloping down upon us—so plucky, but we sent them galloping back—so funky ! We then formed up, and the enemy came within 300 yards of us, but - a few mime rile balls sent thica off. They they then tried to come upon our flank, but we would not admit that at any price. At last, as the ground was unfavourable for cavalry, we retired and brought them out in the open, when we charged and they bolted. I got a cropper over a hedge and ditch in which my horse had fallen, but picked myself up and continued the pursuit, and soon caught up a couple of Sowats ; one fellow fired at me, but missed me, and off they both bolted. I put my spurs into Cavalier's sides and quickly overtook the rearmost man, and equally quickly polished him off. I then went after the other and caught him up, when he had the imper. tinence to try and frighten me by presenting hi s matchlock at me, but this was too good, seeing that he had just fired it at me.
