' 7- •`----'"* --:,-,-', LONDON, WEDNEWSY, JULY 22, 1867. The difficulty respecting the Parliamentary Oaths Bill received three discussions yesterday. First, by the deputation of Liberal members who waited on the Premier, and subsequently consi dered the proceedings at that interview. Secondly, by the House of Commons on Lord JOHN RUsSELL's motion, for leave to bring in a bill as to the state of the existing law. And, thirdly, in the House of Lords, where the Lord Chief Justice of England, rather irregularly, introduced a debate, under the avowed object of in quiring into the co ndition of the j u di c i a l busi ness of the House, more particularly as to the state of the appeal case of —ALOMONS V. MIL LER." The results in every case confirm the op i nion that it is utterly useless to hope that Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S Bill can be passed during the present session, and that the representative branch of the legislature must decide either on passinv Mr. DILLWYN'S, or some analogous, resolutions, for the purpose of admitting B iroll ROTHSCHILD to his seat on taking the oath " in the form most binding on his conscience," or of humbly submit ting to the decision of the Lords, and permitting another body to become the judges of their own peculiar rights and privilege s . On the first point, we regret to be obliged tc, say that we can place no confidence in Lord PALMERSTON. lie, of course, received the depu tation very courteously, and listened with respect ful deference to their views. No Minister could do otherwise hwards so influential a body of his supporters. He could not afford to say, as be recently did of some other Members, that " he tred nothing for their opinions." That would se too daring an experiment for the wary tacti cian. But he carefully avoided committing him ,,elf in any way. He stated " that it was impos sible for the Government to promise support to a bill which they had not seen, and of the provi sions of which they were ignorant. That they would give all their support to the introduction i , f the bile, hut could promise nothing as to the titure stage." We do not profess to give the ipsissiina verbs of the Premier, but such was their tenor and effect. Nct very encouraging for those who were contented to keep their own views in abeyance, waiting for what the Government and the House of Lords might do. But this was not all ! He justified the schism in the Cabinet on the question—would hold out no hope of the acquiescence of the Go vernment to seating Baron ROTHSCHILD by reso lution, and, "as a matter of tactics, doubted if the bill of Lord JOHN RUSSELL, if it passed through the House of Commons, would not lose much of its effect by being carried up by a smaller majority than supported the Government Bill !" The best that could be gathered from his statement was that "he did not despair of the feeling in the Upper House under going a change." As if that was not sufficient to damp the feelings of the applicants, he took ad vantage of the subsequent discussion in the House "to speak frankly," reserving his opinion until better informed of its provisions, but intimating that, "in the present state of the session, with many important bills pending, he could not undertake to postpone Government business for the purpose of pressing the measure forward." This was the application of cold water with a vengeance. It WAS similar to the treatment of the poor lunatic, who first received a shower bath of six hundred gallons, and then a considerable dose of the "lowering" mixture. Certainly, there must be great vitality in the principle if it can resist such depressing treatment ! In the House the motion was carried by a ma jority of 92, the numbers being for the bill 246, and against it, 154. Judging, however, from the tone and manner of the Opposition, the agreeable treat which they provided on Saturday, and the tacit encouragement which they received from the lukewarmness of the Premier, we are confirmed in the belief that there is no hops of the measure passing this session. In order to do sn, and to induce the Lords to re-consider their determina tion, it should be pressed forward with the ut most zeal and enthusiasm. It should be regarded as of paramount importance, to which everything else should give place. But when the Lords per ceive that not even a government day would be given up for its discussion, and that Ministers cannot be in earnest, they will display similar per versity to that which has induced them to reject the principle, although assumingso many Protean forms during four successive Parliaments. If, therefore, the Commons desireto vindicate their own privileges they must act for themselves, and not expect to avoid the collision through any concession on the pert of the co-ordinate branch of the Legislature. It seems to us that there is but one wey to bring Lord PALMERSTON to his senses, and b vindicate the honour and character of the popular represen tatives. Let the new bill be affixed as a rider to some 'of the money hills. We wish it could he to that for the dowry of the Princess Royal, but it has already received the Royal Assent. This, or the bolder and more decisive method, which we havo advocated, of admitting Baron RomscHILD by a resolution of the House, would enli g ht en the mind of the political chameleon, and sum marily dispel the German fog, which at pre sent obscures his vision and c'ouds his judgment. Let him be honest and straight forward, and he will have nothing to fear ; but any paltry evasion or thimble-rigging quibbles will deprive him of the independent support he has hitherto received, and leave him in a hope'ess minority, deprived of the c )nfidence and good will of the House, which he has abandoned in the hour of emergency. Indeed they have already received an ominous warning. Lord CAMPBELL has stepped forward as the schoolm aster, and administered a sound castigation to those who presumed to assert their own opinions. He ventured to impeach a resolu tion of which an Hon. Member of the other House had given notice, and, as we believe, in total violation of order, he sp 'lse of a matter still pending in the C nimens as a " flagrant usurpation," " a coup d'etat, such as is sometimes resorted to in a neighbouring country t ibring about a revolution 1" Nay more, he distinctly and unequi vocally indicated whet his conduct would be if the question should be brought before him in his judicial capacity, and hoped that "if the House of Commons should order him to be taken to Newgate or the Tower, the people would rise in his defence." This is certainly not what we should have anticipated from the head of the Superior Courts of Common Law, and we shall feel both grieved and astonished if the unseemly threats have not a directly contrary effect to that intended, and if the chosen representatives of the people be not thereby influenced to assert their own inherent and inalienable privileges in an une quivocal and decisive manner. The time has indeed arrived when they must make up their minds to act vigorously, or to sink into insignifi cance—to " awake, arise, or be for ever fallen." It seems more than probable that the Tipperary Joint-Stock and Roy al British Banks will not be suffered to stand alone in their glory 1 The London and Eastern Banking Corporation, so far at least as the Directors and Managers are con cerned, boldly claims admission into the triad. They appear to have as completely made away with the assets, to have applied the entire paid-up capital, and all that their credit could obtain, for their own private and peculiar benefit, as either of the rival boards. As in the Irish case, a single dictator appears to have ob tained the lion's share of the plunder. Col mel PETRIE WAUGH has contrived to absorb something more than the entire capital, leaving to his fel lows to pluck at the credit of the concern. He seems to have dazzled, by his reckless expen diture, those who must either have been his weak minded dupes, or his criminal associates. A fabu lous value was placed on a property which he had purchased for less than the one-twentieth part of what he obtained on its security I And while be was borrowing so largely, and at 12 per cent, interest, from the funds entrusted to his care, ne was living en prince, as if he were, indeed, the millionaire which he professed to be. The public journals contained daily accounts of his lavish entertainments. The glories of Campden [louse and of Branksea Castle were repeated usque ad nauseam , , and confiding shareholders were dazzled with the seemingly boundless wealth of the man, who, although appa rently possessed of ALADDIN'S lamp, or FORM NATUS'S purse, was still willing to devote his time and Latour for their benefit. At length the babble burst, and veterans who had retired to enjoy the otium cum dignitate, and widows who hoped to spend the remainder of their days in com fort, thanks to the providence of their deceased hus bands, found themselves reduced to destitution, and compelled to endure all the ills of pinching poverty, through the reckless and want m extrava gance of a single man, and the culpalle folly, or something far worse, of his coadjutors. Such a case should be fully developed in all its details. Every portion of the management should be exposed in the clearest light. The delinquents —whoever they may be—should not be secured from public censure. Fortunately for the creditors, it appears that the share holders are able, by impoverishing them selves, to provide for the liquidation of the liabilities of the concern. The public will not suffer very materially, but surely innocent shareholders also require protection ; and it is deplorable to see gallant veterans, help less widows, and innocent children reduced to pauperism or deprived of the comforts to which they are entitled, and all their future prospects blighted by such iniquitous conduct on the part of those who may be regarded as their trustees, bound to act to the best and utmost of their ability for their interest. It appears that the resolution adopted at a former meeting, that the shareholders should give promissory notes for a sum equal to 250,0001. (being 501. on each 1001. share, in addition to the 501. already paid), has been already acted on, to the extent of 206,1501., and two calls of 151. each per share have been made on the shareholders, who refused to accede to the proposed arrangement& Under these circum stances, the debts and liabilities are to be privately liquidated, and the matter will not come so prominently under the public notice, as if more stringent measures were adopted. Sufficient has, however, transpired, to show that the whole of the original capitil has been squan dered, and that the shareholders must not only submit to that loss, but must pay further heavy sums to save themselves from ex pensive and ruinous litigation. We may, then, hope that, notwithstanding the private liquidation, the parties guilty of such vile and heartless frauds may not escape with impunity, but that justice may be fully vindicated, and that they may be all deal& with strictly, according to their respective . deserts. THE QUEEN OF THE NETHERLANDS,—The Countess Van Buren (Queen of the Netherland") honoured Eirl Cadogan wfth her presence at dinner, at his mansion i❑ Piccadilly, and afterwards went to a ball given by the Countess de Pereigny at Albemarle House. The Duke and Duc es; of Buccleuch and the Ladies Scott hale left Montagu House, Whitehall, for Beaulieu, in the New Forest. The Doke of Sutherland, after a cruise of several weeks in his yacht, has landed at Liverpool, and gone to Trentham, where the Ducheßs and Lords Ronald and Albert Leveson Gower are staying. The Marchiorftss (Anne) of Londonderry has left Holderneste House for Wynyard Park, near Stockton on-Tees. The Countess of We tmoreland and Laly Rose Pane bave gone on a tour in Switzerland. The noble earl re• mains in town. The Earl and Counte=s Ho we and Lady Mary Curzon have left town for Gopsall Hill, Leicestershir,.. The Countess Vane and her infant daughter are going on favourably.

THE CONDEMNED CRIMINALS AT CHELMSFORD.— There has been a very natural desire on the part of the Sheriff and other authorities that the two should be executed on the same day, so as to avoid a repetition of the sad scene. Communications were accordingly opened with the Secretary of State, who, afier maturely con sidering the subject, was of opinion that the regulation in such cases wee imperative, and could not be relaxed. The execution of Crawley for the murder of his wife at Stratford was therefore fixed for Thursday next, the 23d inst., and of Finch for Wednesday, the 29th.

CONSPIRACY TO ASSASSINATE THE EMPEROR OF THE FRENCH. PARIS, WEDNESDAY, July 22, 8 S.M. The Moniteur contains the following : " For more than a month the police has bad proof that a plot had been formed in London to make an attempt on the life of the Emperor. Three Italians, charged with the execution of this horrible project, were at Paris, and arrested. The arms also which were to have been used for the perpetration of the crime have been seized ; they consist of poniards, revolvers, &,c. Brought to justice, the prisoners had already confessed their crime and revealed the names of their accomplices. The Government notwithstanding suspended the proceedings against them, in order that the eclat of the process might not be regarded as a means of influencing the result of the elections which were about to take place. The proceedings are now resumed, and an ordinance of the Judge of Instruction has sent before the Chamber of Ac cusation all the prisoners arrested, with their ac complices. Their names are Tibaldi, Bartollotti, Grilli (otherwise Saro), Mazzini, Ledru Rollin, Mazarenti, and Campanella." FRANCE. PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING. A demand has been presented to the Council of State for the payment of a sum of 1,700,000 f. on account of the mission of M. de Morny to Russia. 1,700,000 f., or 68,0001., is a very hand some sum. It is not said whether it comprises the whole of the money the mission cost the country. The vouchers (or pieces justificatives) do not usually accompany the demand to the Coun cil of State. They ara communicated to the Cour des Comptes when the time comes for that tribunal to investigate the claim, with a view to allow or disallow it. This decision will not be probably before three or fur years. A despatch from the French Charge d'Affaires at St. Petersburg announces that the difficulty which had arisen between the Russian authorities and some French subjects who remained at Sebastopol and Kamiesch after the evacuation by the allies, has been completely arranged. . . _ The Director-General of Naval Constructions in Cronstadt has arrived in Paris, and the Russian Minister of Ma► ine is said to be at Havre, engaged in completing the investigations commenced by the Grand Duke Constantine. The Councils-General of the Departments are convoked for the 24th of August. The Emperor's visit to Osborne is fixed for the 4th. The Pays, Gwernment paper, contradicts the statement of the .2‘ , ord, of BrusselF, of this day, that in consequence of a counter-order sent from Constantinople, the elections in Moldavia had commenced on the 12th inst. The following private telegraphic despatch has been received " MADRID, JULY 20. "The law relative to the constitutional reform has been signed by her Majesty. "The Holy Father has sanctioned the sale of the ec clesiastical properties made previously." The Moniteur also publishes a decree relative to the payment of the quarterly instalments by the holder s of the new shares of the Bank of France "Notice is to be given by the Council-General of the Bank of the dates when these payments are to be made. If the shareholder does not pay the instalment by the day fixed, he will be charged an interest of 5 per cent. reck oned from the day when thepayment wasdue. The share. holder in default will receive notice to pay up his instal ment in arrear, and, if thatbe notdone within 15 days after the said notice, the Bank will have the right of selling at the Bourse the new share or shares. Frorn the proceeds of that eale it will furnish the capital of I,loof. or the portion of it which remains due ; then pay itself the interest due for the delay ; and the surplus, if any, will be paid into the Caisse des Depots et Consignations to the account of the sharebol lers.

C at _ doni that the petition had been presented to him for signature. PRESIDENT—I am not come hither to do what M. A. or M.B. may wish, but I shall act according to the dictates of my conscience. LO3IBARDO—A petition for the colonisation of Corfu ! We are horror-struck. It behoves the member for Corfu to inquire into the matter and report thereon, that we may determine what to do. The whole house agreed to M. Lombardo' s pro position. PoLow (Member for Corfu)--Such a petition is by our penal law an act of high treason ; the Advo cate D ,,,tbing about it. A rep o rt of FviosDcAalTEnazsEtNtEhßerleLfo_relknow something about it.. matter, knowing this sort had been spread about formerly, but proved not to be true. If evil wishers spread such a report to cause a disturbance, do not allow your enthu siasm to take stops unworthyof the importance of the subject matter ; but rather wait, examine, con sider, and then decide. PA DOVA N (Head of the Public Instruction)._ This very moment I have been told for a certainty that M. Candoni has been called upon to sign the petition. ARVANITACHI—In a former sitting we were told by the Advocate-General that there are some who are averse to the reforms ; and the Lord High Commissioner in his speech assured us that our rights should be protected. How, I ask, can those promises be reconciled with the existence of this infernal scheme ! ADVOCATE-GENERAL—I am desired to repeat to you what I said formerly, viz., that it is the inten tion of Government to protect the free institutions of this state ; and I add that if the fact reported were true, I, one of the first, should not be here as Advocate-General ; with the reforms I entered • into office, and if they are dropped I should not hold the pl PHILLIPPAS—The petition, it is said, has been put in circuiation for the last three montl!s. I Plypeet therefore that the police has been conniving at it. DANDOLO—If a petition had been circulat:ng praying f;r a union with Greece, the police would have seized it and torn it. Why do the p&ice of the Advooa , e-Gcneral not perform their duty in in the present inAatice ? A DVOCATE-GENERAL—ThiS takes me unawares ; no propo,,ition has been laid on the table. I re quire time to answer. _ - LOMBARDO—The police have no right to interfere, each lonian has the right of petitioning. But no Corfuote, I am sure, has the most did int wish to see Corfu become an English colony ; aid there is none in the other islands who is not horror-w.ruck by such an idea. [Many vofc-s repeat, " There is none.") Not only is every :lonian ready to make use of every means in his power to object to any p e titi on f or oetinisation, but he is at the swine time willing to sign wi , h a pen dipped in his own b'ood, " That union with Greece is our sole wish and de st! e." [The President got up, and with him all. the members of the house, crying, with enthusiasm. " Yes, yes, yes."] Let therefore, prove to the foreigner, what we have already proved, that what is m ost grateful to us is to get rid of his protection. Cuxi—lf a petition praying for tie uni , .n with Greece had been circulating, the Government would not have left a stone untouched to discover it. Why dos the Government take no steps at pre s.-nt ? It is not far the members of Corfu alone to move ; they must be support edby the sister islands. [M. Marino gets up, and with him a'l the members of the other six islands, shouting with enthusiasm, " We are ready to sacrifice all we have for our sister Corcyra, andfor the whole Greek nation."] Who will be surety for the tranquility of this place? But lot us put a stop to all other proceeding as a demonstra tion of our sentiments towards the Government and the protection. DANDOLO , —I propose that M. Candoni and the inspector of police be summoned and examined before the house. MARINO—I agree with M. Dandolo, and propose further—first that a committee of inquiry be ap pointed ; secandly, that the Government be in vited to inform ns what it knows of the subject matter, and what steps have Leen taken by the same. VALAJRITI—If such an infernal plot has been contrived I scorn half measures, Lut am ready to go thither where the question may be solved at once, sacrificing for that purpose the last penny I pos ses, my children, and all that I have. PADOVAN—I assure you that if any base creature who shall have participated in the scheme should happen to put his foot on any part of the country where I have influence he shall find his grave there, for the grave is the proper place for such abumin able and flagitious beings. LOMBARDO—We have voted to-day unanimously our national resurrection. Thanks to you, Mr. President, you have been the first to rise and. vot9 f►r it ; thanks to you, members of the home, and particularly to you, Ccfalonist4, you have bteu amongst the first to declare that you sul , scrily.) with your blood the union with Greece. Who dare now say that the foreigner can find any support in these islands ? PRETENDERI—He can find none. LOMBARDO—With enthusiasm and unanimity we have voted our national resurrection ; hencefor ward, therefore, it is by force only that the pre sent political system can be kept up. Order, there fore, that our proceedings of to-day be printed forthwith. The house unanimously ordered the printing thereof. ADVOCATE GENERAL—We are a Greek independ ent State like Greece, with the sole difference that we are under Briti-h protection. We all wish for the greatness and the glory of the nation ; but the question as to when a union with Greece and the whole nation will take place, must be decided by time and by, circumstances. The house unanimously appoints a committee of inquiry, and is adjourned. (Signed) FLAMPOURIARIS, President. J. DUSMANI, Secret Aries. N. Luse, Naval and Military intellifgence. The authorities at the Horse Guardi have deter mined t4hat no women or cOildren are to accompany the rogiments now under orders to leave this coun try for India. Yesterday there was another field-day at Worm wood Scrubs. The review took place at 10 o'clock, the troops consisting of the Ist and 2d Regiments of Life Guards and. the 11th Hussars. The usual guard at the Horsa Guards was reduced in order to take part in the review. Mai.r.General the Eail of Cardigan, the Inspector-G:nfral of Cavalry, commanded. Many military officers of rank were present en the occasion. Men and horses had a severe day. Captains Driver, Ward, Jackson, and Kinsman are the four selected from the Portsmouth Division of Royal Marine Light Infantry to command com panies of the Royal Marine Battalion about to be sent to China under the command of Col.

As the shit s went out to Spithead about half-past 8 yesterday morning their band played "Auld Lingsyne," and the troops were en thus;astically cheered on their progress by large as semblages of the inhabitants, whose warm gratula tions were vociferously returned by those ou board. These ships had not left Spithead at the despatch of this report, at 6 p.m. yesterday, and as it was blowing hard and freshening, it was very doubtful whether they would weigh. The officers and men of the 3d battalion of the Rifle Brigade, enumerated in The sun of yester day, arrived at Portsmouth, yesterday forenoon from the Camp at Al4lersholt, and Embarked on board the Sutlej freight ship, which will be towed to Spithead this morning, and sail this evening for India.

Captain Rundle B. Watson, C. 8., who has been appointed to the command of the screw 50-gun frigate Chesapeake, at Chatham, vice Buckle re signed, will hoist a b'ue broad pendant as a com modore of the second class, and command the squadron to be sent off the Indian coast. The Hotipur Indiaman, Captain Toynbee, af• er embarking passengers at Spithead, sailed yesterday for Calcutta. The screw gunvessels Roebuck, Assurance, and Sparrowhawk, just commissioned at Portsmouth for foreign service by Commander Marten, Bruce, and Byng, are getting on well with their outfit. The Roebuck will have 110, and the others 90 men each. Yesterday the third division of troops, numbering upwards of 800 men, proceeding to India for the purpose of reinforcing the regiments serving in Bengal, Bombay, and Madras, left Chatham and embarked at Gravesend.

Sir, —I know not whether I am trespassing too heavily upon your indulgence under the circum stances, when I solicit the favour of your giving publicity to the accomranying correspondence. The farewell ad-tress to the armies of India, re ferred to by me in the course of it is printed in Allen's Indian, Mail, No. 287, of March 4, 1856. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your 1110 A obedient Servant, WILLIAM GOMM, General. 10, New-Street, Spring-gardens, July 20. "10, New -street, Spring-gardens, July 15. "My dear Lord Melville,—You may, perhaps, think me super-sensitive—and others may think so, too—in what I am going to say. I will, notwithstanding, run the risk of incurring this reproach, with a view to re lievin7 my-elf from a much greater ore. "The Times of the 1411 reports you as stating to the House of Lords, in the debate of the previous evening that 'you considered the discipline of the Bengal native army while passing under yrur own observat • , as being of the worst possible description, and in that light it had been looked upon by the late Geneial Anson, who had in consequence ever since he assumed the command of the army in India deemed.it to be his duty to repre sent to the Board of Directors the absolute necessity of increasing the European force in India,' &u. "In your zeal to manifest pair preference for the tr sops of Bombay you may not have been aware of the reflection you were thus casting upon those who had the chief supervision of the Bengal force you were ar raigning in such unqualified terms (I am assuming the report to be correctly given), the obvious, and, I should think, inevitable inference to be deduced from your state ment being, either that the superintendence uas eul= pably slack, or that these authorities neglected the duty or apprising the Governme.i,t of their inability to check the spirit of insubordiaation which they saw growing apace. " But . 1 can in no wise submit to have either charge fastened upon me. The Bengal army was, I maintain, in a perfectly 13 , altby state of discip;ine when I sur randered the command, immediateiy preceding the peaceful occupation awl annexation of Oade. "A considerable portion of that army had, indeed, very recently given substantial proof of its good spirit in the suppression, without the assistance of a cor poral's guard of British troops, or any other aux;li aries, of the Santa' Insurrection, both native men and officers, commissioned and non-commissioned, bearing unu,uel hardships and privations with admirable tem per and loyalty, and so I felt it my duty to record of them in my farewell address to the army at large of January 3, 1856. "To what cau-e, to what fatality, this strange out break is owing—by what misunderstanding these mise rable men have been led in o such a course of wild tscess—l do not pretend to divine. "Neither will I diFotiss the question of advancement to the grade of native officers iu the three presulencie3 —the merits or demerits of this or that wy tem. " Meantime I am c ,ntent to side in opinion on this matter With Ike Duke of Wellington, and with Lords flardinge ow - Moue), and Sir Charles Napier (see their evidence before the Lords' committee of 1852-3), and it would appear with Lord Ellenborough, since lord ship records such proofs of surpassing merit falling under his own ob•ervation among the native officers of the several distingu'shed Bengal corps iae brings to the notice of the House. "But, while acting upon this Bengal system, you are much deceived if you think that seniority and weight of years alone carried the day under my superintend• ence. Numbers were successively passed over by me, and I presume by my predecessors in the command, who bad no other merit to entitle them to advancement, while I confess that what is called smartness and off handedness' had not alone the weight with me, or, I may add, with Sir Charles Napier, which it appears to have commanded elsewhere." "I cannot in reason expect that you will subscribe to my view of the condition of the 13zingal army at the period of my ri languishing the command of it af.er the statements which you have thought proper to make in Parliament respecting it ; and yet it is necessary fbr my•own vindication (while I aria writing the report of what pmsed last night in the House Gf Commons—the natural reeult of your statement of the preceding day— come before mom) that the putlic should understand why I made no report t , ) Government unfavourable to the force in que4tion before quitting its command. "You will hardly b e surprise - d,-therefore, to hear me telling you that I may find it nkessary to seek to ob tain publicily for this letter in the same columns through which the implied accusation bas gone alor ied. "Believe me to be always, illy dear Lord Melville, th fa I ly yourg, "W. GOMM. "Major-General Viscount Melville, K.C.8." "7, Portugal street, July 16. "My dear Sir Wiliam.—l am very sorry you should feel that any observations of mine in relation to the lainentable occurrences in Bengal should in any way cast reflection upon you, as having been recently in command of the Bengal arwy, and which I had not the slightest intention of doing. Neither did I say that Gen. Anson concurred in the view I took of the bad state of discipline of that army. Ail I did say in reference to Anson was the pre vilmt report, that ever since he had been in command he had represented the necessity of an increase to the European force, and of which no notice had been taken. I said nothing about his view of the discipline of the army, because I knew nothing of his opinions. Of Lord Hardinge and Slr Charles Napier I had more knowledge, and the unfavourable opinion which the latter entertained is recorded in the history of his life. Eotertaining the worst opinion privately, Lord liar dioge never would express it publicly, trying thereby to bolster up a bad f , 37 •tern, on the ground of the impolicy of making pui..Fc the slight thread by which we held our tenure of that empire. " I do not pretend to interfere with any view you may entertain, no pereoa being better able to come to a ju,t conclusion than yourielf. I formed my own from what I saw and what came directly under my own knowledge. Without co-operation from the Curt of Directors and their cordial support I do not believe .it was in your power or the'Governer-General's combined to reform the bad system which prevails in the Bengal army in every detail. " Sir Charles Napier's expression in 1349, when seve ral regiments mutind, two of the number being those at Rawul Pindee under Sir Colin Campbell, and which in some degree concerned me, that we were sitting on a mice which nobody could tell when it might explode, has only come ton true. " Sir Eiward Paget's opinion, given 30 years ago, has only proved hoN true an estimate he formed of the morale of the Bengal native infantry. It would require too much detail to ent , r into all the circumstances which have conduced to the formatisn of the opinion I enter tain of the system fi Rowed and the discipline maintained in the Bengal native army, and even the Company's European force in that Presidency. " That opinion was formed before you came to India, and you may believe ins that I am not singular in that opinion ; but at the same time entirely repudiate all in tention, and most distinctly all inclination, to cast any reflection on you while administering a system bad in itself, and which you could only struggle by every means in your power to strengthen and uphold. " BAieve me yours very sincerely, " MELVILLE, " General Sir Walken Gomm, K.C.8." "10, New-street, Spring-gardens, July 17. "My dear Lord Melville,—l am thankful to you for your explanations in r:ply to my letter LI the 15th. " Still I cannot consider inyseif relieved by the excuses which you furnish me (rem tee imputation of complicity, at least, in a course of proceeding big} reprehensiblr to my mind, in one belling tho chief Indian command through no inconsiderable term, if really indulged in, and my cemscience repudiates it. " I really believed the Bengal native army deserving of the encomiums with which I took leave of it in my parting addle ss of January, 3, 1856 ; and the disastrous occurrences of the present hour in no wise lead me to the concleeion that I was then self-deceived, while posi tively no sharer in the policy of deceiving others. " The facts upon which you grou n d y our sweep i ng condemnation of the Bengal system are, indeed, wholly indefensible as individual traits. As a counterpoise, hear Lord Hardinge vouching in his examination before the Lords' Committee of 1852-3 for the enduring con stancy manifested by the Bengal army in the mass, when confronted with the Sikhs at the same period, under severer temptation to revolt than the force of either of the other Presidencies was ever exposed to ; and whe ther attributable to the much-abused influence of caste, pension in prospect, or whatever other motive proper to Bengal, there stands the fact, lastingly to the credit of its native army, and requiring no deduction in the report on the score of p licy to trim it for favourable acceptance with the world. " For all these reasons I am taking leave to place our correspondence before the public as it stands; it commits you in no way, beyond your already recorded opinions, while it may have the effect of relieving me from a cer tain share of blame to which I do not consider myself amenable, with some minds. —I am always, my dear Lord Melville, faithfully yours, " W. GOMM, "Major-General Viscount Melville, K.C.8."
