LONDON, FRIDAY, NAY 21.

Tax important oerrespondence between the Go-
niutoz-Gittaist. and the CHIEF Commisstommt of

Oohs, ought to give pause to the supporters of Mr.
Cannenu.'s motion. Sir Jar OUTRAN WI/
the ern who carried the annexation of
thede into effect ; ho will not be suspected of
blaming that measure. Yet Sir JA Yea declares
that the course panned by our Government with
regard to land settlement, subsequent to
the annexation, was such as served necessarily to
irritate the landowners, to palliate their insur-
rection, and, consequently, to place them in
the relation to as of fair enemies, rather
than of rebels. Sir Jaime protested against
the proposed land confiscation, partly on
this account, and partly because, by driving the
landowners to despair, it would embitter and prolong
the war. The Ciovras oa-G axaa. t. and his Council did
sot deny that there is truth in these representations.
They actually introduced a clause into the Pro-
clamation to meet Sir jA FE'S objection.
But that clause was obviously inadequate to meet
the danger and to restore confidence in the minds of
the landowners. And it is open to the further ob-
jection of having been added insincerely and in
a double sense. " This clause," says Mr. EDISON -
STONE'S first despatch, " will add litlk or coaling
" to your discretionary power, but it may serve to
" indicate more clearly to the talookdars," &c.
The special pleading of the second Despatch is too
contemptible for criticism. It is the palliation of
seen who feel they have been in the wrong, but
lash mepanimity and wisdom to confess it.
The affectation of believing that it was ne-
cessary to issue a decree of confiscation, to
prevent Talookdars from retaining lands usurped
during the rebellion, is as bad as the
lowest shuffle of an Old Bailey attorney. The
Liberal Party will incur serious danger of
damaging itself irretrievably with the country if it
throws its weight into Mr. CARDWELL'S scale. That
gentleman's acceptance of Mr. Dom.or's suggestion
last night—before he had seen the correspondence
upon which we have been commenting—showed
that he already felt he had committed a
political blunder—a greater sin in some men's
eyes than • political crime. The perusal of
the correspondence must convince him that
he has. The best course for Mr. CARD s ELL
and Lord PA LMERSTON would be to withdraw their
Resolution. At all events, let them do what
they will, Liberal members—dependent or inde-
pendent—will refuse to " march through Coventry
with them."

The simple stilts of the cue is this. If Goma-
meat are censured for their Despatch, Sir Isms
Durum must be dismissed for his remonstrance,
which upraises the same views in language equally
strong.

Tax third night's debate on the propriety
of acquiescence in the policy of Lord CAN-
N/Web Proclamation has hardly realised the
expectations that were formed regarding it.
Many persons fancied that after the unusually
lengthened pause in the discuesion which arose
after the adjournment of Monday night, a concen-
trating as well as a clarifying effect would be
wrought in the rhetorical mind of the House. It
was not unreasonably supposed that in the interval
for reflection and re-consideration thus afforded the
rash and shallow would probably discover that
they had really nothing to say that would not be
better left unsaid, and that the prudent but
prosy, upon re-reading what had been spoken
already by dull respectability on the general ques-
tion, would arrive at the humane conviction that it
was not necessary for any more of the class to which
they belong to inflict their heaviness on the legisla-
tive ear. We leave it to the judgment of such of
our readers as may be industrious enough to toil
through the mass of our parliamentary report,
whether these flattering anticipatious have been
realised. We do not like to say hard things of
some of those who appear as taking part in last night's
debate ; but it can scarcely be denied that in the
main they added little to the small stock of distinct
ideas preciously furnished to a sorely bewildered
amid perplexed assembly ; and that as far as the
majority of talkers were conoerned it were better I
for their speeches if they had never been born.
Two remarkable exceptions, however, will natu-
rally strike the most inattentive reader. It is
hardly neeesury to say that we allude to the speeches
of Mr. amour and Sir Limes Osmium. Each
in his own peculiar way seems to have desired to
weigh the policy of empire in the balance of
immutable and world-wide justioe. Each boldly
appealed to the national conscience and the
national sense of high responsibility, in deal-
ing with subject races and conquered terri-
tories. Both, though in very different phrase,
and with very dissimilar feeling, sought to bring the
Parliament face to face with the peril and reproach of
wholesale confiscation ; and both tried as statesmen
to direct and guide the legislative intelligence to-
wards safer and worthier counsels. This is, after all,
the strength of the case to be made against Mr.
CanrowaLL's Resolution. Neither the tenour of
Lewd Buissonoriaa's Despatch, ae a whole, nor
the time at which it was given to the world, admit
of argumentative defence ; and the only plea which
Ministers have to urge in their own excuse is •
Government lire in the fact that the writer
of the inculpated document has admitted his
error on one point, and is silent on the other,
while for the two he has voluntarily taken upon
himself the penalty of official forfeiture. And
here let us make a remark that in all like-
need would never suggest itself to the many who
I um either side of the Rouse have held, or
hoped to hold. polities' once of high or low degree.
T. aim of Lord ELLENDOROUGH'S frame of mind
sad temperament office is no vulgar object of per-
sonal pride or pecuniary gain. Its charm for Bum
is the power it gives, and the opportunity it beings
with it, of impressing their ova idea, en
the twines of rest rnamse of their fellow.mea.
Chenmetaaoss do not often aftbrd them the

tisy so much prises bat when the
does 'off it is veir hatd to let it pass
bands without a siroggle. One of the
noblest passages in the Parliainentary orations of
GEORCIN CANNING is that in whieh he paints the
sacrifice he felt it his duty to make is relinquishing
office towards the close of the Peninsular War, and
surrendering the glorious privilege of guiding the
policy of his country to a triumphant issue—his
successor being an acknowledged party rival. Some-
what similar we can readily believe must have been
the emotions of a man of Lord ELLENBOROUGH'S
genius, earnestness, and daring, when, actuated
by • sense of generous honour, he sat down
alone, and indicted his recent letter of resignatioa.
It had, doubtless, been to him a noble object of
ambition that his name should be historically identi-
fied with the pacification of India, and with the
establishment of an improved system of Imperial

administration in that vast dependency. Whatever
may have been his deficiencies and faults, everybody
admits that his whole soul was devoted to the mo-
mentous object of his departmental care. Suddenly
to renounce the darling dream of so many anxious
dap and sleepless nights must have required
no common effort of self-denial, and can be ap-
preciated frilly by no ordinary sympathy. Done as the
act of self-devotion was, it is not only entitled to the
highest praise, but in spite of all the logic of party
criticism it hu unquestionably exercised no little
effect upon the minds of wavering allies and hesita-
ting opponents. Sir JAMEB GRAHAM well knew the
predominant feelings of his audience when he dwelt
upon the practical exoneration of Ministers, by the
secession of Lord ELLENBOROIIGH from the Cabinet ;
and the impression created by the right honourable
baronet's fearless adoption of the general drift sad
purpose of the celebrated Despatch seems to have
been sufficiently striking. Unguarded phrases, or
infelicitous epithets, in the letter of a Minister,
may indeed commit his colleagues when they think
fit finally and deliberately to adopt them ;
but Sir Jamie argued with telling force that
to censure a whole administration for the verbal

inaccuracy of one who had owed to belong to
it would be to set up a new precedent in parlia•
mentary pleading, and one which the convenienoes
and neeemities of public business could ill afford to
have established.

Sir RICILLID Barnum. appears to hare found it
difficult to win back attention to his side of the
general argument. The House bad become tho-
roughly excited by the vigorous and eloquent denun-
ciations of the new policy of confiscation uttered by
the member for Carlisle; and, notwithstanding the
zealous exertions of Sir R. BETHELL, the feeling,
towards the close of the night's debate, evidently be-
came one of impatience if not of irritability. All
sides will probably rejoice that to-night will see the
end of the discussion.

A DISSOLUTION being, as all the Town knows, a
matter of absolute certainty in the event of a ma-
jority to-night against the Government, it will
perhaps be as well for independent Liberals once
more to consider the position which they and the
Party would occupy if sent to the country on such
an Mane as that raised by Mr. CARDWILL. It is of
course useless to talk of the effect likely to be pro-
duced in India by a vote which in substance affirms
and approves a policy of confiscation. The first
overt act of Parliamentary Government for India
has already proved beyond all possibility of dispute,
that in dealing with one of the gravest questions of
Indian policy that could possibly be raised the
interests of India have been absolutely forgotten,
and the interests of Party alone attended to. If
regard to the interests of India be confessedly too
elevated a motive to appeal to in the present crisis
of the great faction-fight, it is only common courtesy
to express a hops that the mere dread of a Dissolu-
tion, as such, is too sordid a one. It is of coarse not
to be supposed for a moment that honourable gentle-
men will allow themselves to be swayed by those
considerations to which the cynics of practical life
are prone to suspect them of being amenable. It is
no doubt a considerable nuisance to have to relinquish
after only a year's tenure the seat for which so much
has been sacrificed and so much has been spent. The
annoyance is peculiarly great in the case of those
gentlemen who, having come in on no other cry
than that of Ewen:note pure and simple, must of
worse regard their return as eminently precarious
now that that cry will serve no longer. Still, it is
of course not to be imagined for an instant that
feelings of this kind can have any possible influence
over votes. The English gentleman, whether in
purse or person—whether on the hostings or in
. _

iha field—is always ready to bleed for his
country, nor is it to be supposed that he
will hesitate for a moment in the performance of
that duty which his country expects from him
when the stake at issue is of such transcendent im.
portance as a contemplated transfer of political
power from Lord DERBY to Lord PALMERSTON.

- Leaving, then, alike the higher ground of regard
to India and the lower ground of the natural
abhorrence entertained by a young Parliament for a
Dimolation—let gentlemen who sincerely wish well
to the Liberal cause, just consider this matter with
reference to the probable effect of a Dissolution, at
the present time and on the present question, upon
the real interests of the Liberal party. How-
ever much in the House itself this issue
has been obscured and mystified by the cross-
fire of contending factions—before the country it
stands clear. Disguise it as you pipette—endeavour
to evade it as you will—there is no escape from this
plain conclusion ; if Parliament be dissolved on Mr.
CaanweLL's motion, the Liberal party mast stand
before the country u the advocates of a policy of
unrelenting harshness and internecine war against the
natives of India. CANNING and confiscation ; VERNON
SMITH and suppressed letters ; a war of extermina-
tion in India, a renewed Income Tax in England—
this is indeed an exhilarating electioneering
programme for the great party of Progressive Im-
provement and Humanizing Reform. Is it possible
to conceive a greater misfortune for the Liberal
party than to have to take the field in presence of
the English people in defence of each a policy as
this? Can anything be more disastrous for the
party than that their political antagonists should be
enabled to filch the suffrages of the people, under the
plausible pretext of advocating a policy of modera-
tion, humanity, and justice ? Can anything be
wane for the country than that we should have
another election carried upon a false issue, and men
oa both sides enabled to force their way into Parlia-
ment, not in consequence of their known views on
great questions of vital and permanent interest, but on
the strength of their fluent professions of allegiance to
some favourite statesman, or their vehement and shal-
low support of some policy which is moostered for the
moment into giant proportions by popular clamour
and prevailing ignorance ? The thinking part of
the nation is now witnessing the natural results of
having made PALMERSTON and China—a popular
minister and a misunderstood question the
bests of Representative fitness. PALMERSTON
and Drum—imallseation and olemeney—weald be
arise just as unlikely to lead to any satisfactory re-
sult; the difference being that in this ease popular
feeling would be on the side not of Lord PALM-Knox but of his opponents.

THE OUDE PROCLAMATION.
CORRESPOND/MDR BETWERN SIB JAMES
OUTRAN AND LORD CANNING.'

The folloiring are the important despatches from
India to which reference was made in both houses
of parliament last evening:

From George Caner, Req., Secretory to the Chief Com-
mbeioner of O. to G. F. Ithaonetose, Req., Secretary
to the Goviremont of Wis.

(Political.) D. Camp, Chimlat, March 8, 1858.
eir,-1 am directed to aelmowledge the receipt of your

to be honed to the landholders, chiefs, and inhabitanta of

in their elligienes, and with these exceptions, the proprietary

3. The Chid Commilioner desire, me to awe tisk in
hie belief there are not a dozen landholders to the provisos
who have not thimmelves bone arms widest in, ow sari a
representative to the Durbar, or misted the rebel govern-

therefore, will be to condo:ate the *Wm proprietary right

4. The Chief CcOmiseloner -demo this matter of such
vital important" that, at the risk of bole, domed heptrts-
nate, he venture' to submit his views aloe sacra, in the hope
that the Right Hon. the Governor-General may yet be in-
duced to mooselder the subject.
6. He is of opinion that the landleoldms INN 111011 e etr

they not been so, that it would have required • degree of
fidelity on their part quite foreign to the usual charade, of

whole country overrun, and the capital in the heeds of the
rebel soldiery, that the talookdara, smarting se they were
under the lose of their landa, aided against us. The Chief
Comnimlosser thinks, therefore, that they ought hardly to
be °moldered es rebels, but rather as honourable watunies, to
whom terms, such as they could without km of dignity
swept, should be offered, at the termination of the cant-

But if their life and freedom from imprisonment only be
offered, they will mist ; end the Chief Comminioner kasses
that we are only at the commencement of a gruerills war for
the atirpstion, root and branch, of this class of men, which
will Involve the loss of thousand, of &trepans by batik
dimwit, and exposure. It must be borne in mind that this
species of warfare ha, always been peculiarly harassing to
our Indian forces, and will be far more so at present what're
are without a native army.
6. For the above means the Chief Commissioner earnestly
requests that such landholder and chiefs as have not been
accomplices in the cold-blooded murder of Europessis may be
enlisted on our side by the restoration of their ancient poi-
sasioiss, subject to such restrictions es will pretest their
dependents from oppression. If his lordship agree to this
propeeltkm, it will not yet be too late to oommunicate his
resat by electric telegraph Wore the fell of the city, which
will probably not take pleoe fns seas days. Should no such
communication be received, the Chief Colentiedoeir will act

Bir,—Your seerstary's latter of the Bth instant wee de-
livered to meat an early hoar this morning by Captain F.
Ms* and it will receive a detailed reply in due course.
Meanwhile, I am desired by the Right Hon. the Governor-
General to subjoin • clause which may be inserted in the
proclamation (forwarded with my letter, No. 191, of led
MM.), after the paragraph which ends with the words,
" Junks and mercy of the British government,"—
.. To those amongst them who shall promptly coma for-
ward, and give to the Chid Coonniesioner their support in
the restoration of prom and order, this indulgence will be
large, and the Governor -Genera will be ready to view libe-
rally the claims which they may thus acquire to • restitution
of their former rights."

2. This clause will add little or nothing to your discre-
tionary power, but It rosy seesseesto indicate more clearly to
the telookdars the liberal spirit in which the Governor-
Gomel Is proposed to review and reciprocate any advanoss
on their pert.

this additional claws into the vernacular languages, and
that you will be able to have copies of the proelaratlite,
so amended, prepared in sufficient numbers, for inmeedimie
um. If more should be required, the magistrate of Cava-
pen will lithograph them on your requisition.
4. It is very important, as you will readily see, that every

Sir,—la replying at ones, at the 10th bat., to your secre-
tary's lease of the Bth, In whit* you urged redone sided
ths hese of the prodeseadat to the Weekdays sad land-
holders at Oude, which bad ban tramsesieted to you by the
Rigid Has. the Govinear-Gentral, my answer was coldhisd
oceatemaiesdeg to you the addition which his lordship
was wane to reeks to that proclamation, Wilma enieriag
lab the maul cautious raked in year lane. The
CloaeserHseend dashes we to acacias hie hope that you

were ma tally weighed by hire, or that your opinion upon
a aka* epos which yea are so well satithed to odor sae
his not hem received with SiSOINS respect, although he was

2. I eta now directed by his lordship to =plain the
grounds upon which the course advocated in your leder—
via , that =eh landboidasead chiefs es have not been meow
plias in the cold4dosded murdar of Europeans should be
=Hsi= en our ids by the restored= of their ancient pre-
sessioln, sabjeot to such rortriotions as will protect their de-
pendsan from oppreedon—is In the opinion of the Governor-
Genera Insdnaelisie.

S. The Crearnor-Geseral mainly agree' with you In
shaft the talookdars sad landholding of Dade in • say
Mast light from that In which rebels in our old palates
an to be regarded. The papa of Oak had alga subasets of
the British goanuarat foe Mee area than IMO yellf what
the matbiles teas eat ; they bed become so by se set of
their own. By the Introduction of oar role many of the
chick had guffaw, • la s of property, and all had taw
rhaoad • diminution el the importanire and 'Attar, power
which they bed hitherto enjoyed ; and it is no marvel that
than amoapt than who had thus beat losers should, whoa
they saw oar authority &solved, have lteramed to shahs off
their now aisirsos.

4. The Ocr;tromr-Oast views Mass eiremosimmoos is •

A. The Owsosma osmahre that the course the
to is am sesmisame with the heap of the gastrula,
.ad etalamedg lariat !elm lama that which is sag-

gaited in your meretary's letter, would, in his lordship's
opinion, have been to treat the rebel, not cal, se honourable
enemies, but me amides who had won the day.
In the course of the rebellion, wet of the leaders in it,
probably all, have retaken to themselves the lands end vil-
lages of which they wee deprived, by the summary settle-
ment which followed the establishment of our government
in Ode. If upon the capture of Lucknow by the Com-
mander-in-Chief, before our strength had been seen or
felt in the distant districts, end before any submiesion had
been received or invited from them, tke rights of the rebel
chief, to all their ancient possessions had been recognized
by the government, it is not possible that the act would
not have been viewed as dictated by fear or weakness. It
would have led the people of Onde, and all who am
watching the course of events in that province, to the
conclusion that rebellion against the British government
cannot be a losing game, and although it might have pur-
chased an immediate return to order, it would not assuredly
have plead the future pesos of the provinoe upon a secure
foundation.

6. You (*serve, indeed, that the landholders were moat un-
justly treated under our settlement. The Governor-General

dreires me to observe that If this were unreservedly the caw,
Of if the proceedings of the oommiasioners, by which many
of the talookdars were deprived of portions of their pos-
sessiosui, bad been generally nnjuat, he would gladly have
ooncurred in your recommendation, and would have been
ready, at the risk of any misinterpretation of the motives of
the government to reinstate the talookdars at once In their
old posemdess. But it is not so. Aa a question of policy,
Indeed, the Governor-General menders that it may well
be dealded whether the attempt to introduce Into Oade a
system of village settlement in place of the old settlement
ander teleokdars wee a wine one; but this is a point which
said not be disowned here. Aa a question of justice, it is
oartairt that the lands and villages taken from the talookdars
had, far the moat pert, been warped by them through fraud
or vkdeace.

7. That =jut decisions were owns to by some of our loaf
Misses in investigating sad judging the titles of the land-
holders is, the Governor-Genend feats, too true ; but the
proper way of rectifying such injustice is by a re-hearing
wham compleint is made. This, you are aware, is the courts
which the Governor-General is prepared to adopt, and to
awry out in a liberal sad conciliatory spirit. It is a very
dams; cue from proclaiming that indiscriminate restitution
of all their ancient poseesdous Is st once to be yielded to the
landholders.

8. That the hostility of the talookdars of Bade who have
been moat motive against the British government has been
provoked, or is excused, by the injustice with which they
have been treated, would sesm to be your opinion.

But 1 am to observe that there are some facts which do-
wn to be weighed before pronouncing that this is the cam.
9. No chiefs h►ve been more open In their rebellion than
the Rajaha at Chard., Bhinga, and Gonda. The Governor-
General believes that the first of these did not lose a single
village by the summary settlement, and certainly his mem-
meat was materially reduced. The second was dealt with in
a like liberal manner. The Rajah of Gonda lost about 30
villages out of 400; but his assessment was lowered by some
10,000 rupees.

10. No one was more benefited by the change of govern-
ment than the young Rajah of Naupara. His estates had
been the object of a oivil war with a rival claimant for three
years, and of these he was at mos recognised as sole pro-
prietor by the British government, losing only sin villages
out of more than a thousand. His mother was appointed
guardian ; but her troops have been fighting against us at
Lucknow from the beginning.
11. The Rajah of Dhowrera, also a minor, was treated
with equal liberality. Every villep was settled with hie
family; yet these people turned upon Captain Hearsay and
his party, refused them shelter, pursued them, captured the
ladies, sad seat them to Lucknow.
12. Debra( Bus Khan, a large talookdar in Gonda, who
bad loag been an object of personality, by the late govern-
ment, was established is the pomession of ell his property
by us ; yet he Ilse been strongly hostile.
13. It lecher that injustice at the hand' of the British
government bee not been the cane of the hostility which is
these instances, at least, has been displayed Mined' oar rule.
14. The moving spirit of thaw men end of others unapt
the chiefs of Dade must be looked for elsewhere; and is the
opinion of the Governor-Otneral It is to be found mainly
in the rept:guano° which they feel to suffer any restraint of
their hitherto arbitrary powers over those about them, to a
diminution of their importance by being brought under
equal laws, and to the obligation of diabanding their armed
followers, and of living s peaceful and orderly life.
16. The penalty of confiscation of property is no more
than a just one in such caw as have been above recited ;
and although consider►tions of policy and mercy and the

Downes' of our rule prescribe a relaxation of the sentence
more or lees according to the features of each easy this re-
Laotian most be preceded by stibmiadon, and the Governor-
General cannot consent to offer all, without distinction, an
entire exemption from penalty, and the restoration of all
former possessions, even though they should not have been
guilty of the murder of Europeans.—l have, &c.,
