aszestary bast bees celled to that pert of the report of the
Impostor of Peieons which stated that is tensile pole in the

Mr. Secretary WALPOLE replied that his attention bad
sot Ism called to the subject, bat be would look into the

•
GOVERNMENT OP TNDTA (No. 3) BILL.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER having in-
timated that in consequence of the ante et public business he
proposed to proceed with the orders of the day before moving
that the hoses at its rising adjourn to Monday, the crier
was reed for conaldering the Lords' lessons for instating oa
certain of their amendments.

Mr. V. 151111TH saiid, tioTt se the questions which he had
given notice to pat on the motion of adjournment related to
the public service in India, he should probably not be
conawed out of order in yutdog them now.
The questions he wished to ask were :—Whether
the 17,000 men sent to India sista January last
included any troops requested to be added to the establish-
ment in I adia by the Directors of the East India Company f
Whether he would state the terms and objects of the cons-
ultation to inquire Into the re-weanleation of the Tudim
army P What was the amount borrowed under the Indian
Loan Act of this remain' end whether the amount allowed to
be borrowed wider the act would cover the expenses of the '
current year, or If bills were now drawn epees India in the
usual method ? And, whether any inalnietions bad been
sent, or would be seat, co proclaim her Majesty's name and
authority in India, and to announce the Intentions of the go-
vernment es to nea-interference with the religion of the
Wives ?
Mr. STAPLETON indistinctly called the attention of the
house to theist/adult expressed by the President of the Board
of Control, in moving the second reeding of the Govern-
meat of India Bill, of referring the question of appointments
to eedetaitips in the nowaisimtifitt besaches of the Indian
army to the commieekawhich "nu about to Inquire into the re-
argtonisatkin of that army ; and to ask, whether the members
of the council for the affairs of led* tobe appointedby govern-
ment, would be appointed subject to what parliament might
hereafter decide with respect re sash cadetships. The hon.
member referred to the noble lord's statement, that the mu-
tant arrangements were only temporary. and that the whole
subject et the Indian army would be maned to a oomtma-
sten, end elm made soma obarratione la refereses to
the eampsneaties of Micas and the propcesd sr-
rengesteats as to cadetship, but fa so low a tome that
his observations were inaudible in the gallery.
Mr. RICH thought the tone of hie right hos. Mead, in
ge,:kelofit3hute olclnazahti.ors,ireplied d
had hard prust the
ring the 2overnor-
vwa
o• the India Bill he believed parliament woUldeumhave
foil confidence in that noble lord that he would in dealing
with the people of India act with moderation and diseralm,
and that be would temper justice with mercy. His right
hoe. friend seemed, is speaking of the native Indian army,
to ignore that large portion of our fellow-sabjecta, the armise
of Madras and Bombay, sod several of the active princes
and chiefs, who had remained loyal throughout thew oc-
currences, and In some cases under trying cirrumetaucee.
(Hew, here) He had no doubt that In the proclamation
relayed to that loyal spirit would be duly recognised.
Lord STANLEY made a categorical reply, stating on the
first point that the peasant number of British troops on
service in India was about 88,000; on the seared, that some
medificetica had lately been made In the consolation of
inquiry respecting the re-organisation of the Indian
army ; and on the third point the noble led read a
paper from the East India C showed, se
be submitted, a sstidattoryoondl==easiel affairs.
