the silealmices generally made, end made explicitly,
by the prr of both the bills, that the existing system
works wel kis mot bad the effect of inducing doubt of the
wisdom beedly abolishing, it. Neither does it w® to
have bassi remmhbered, that d the system has worked well,
there mot be sees mnass hr Its having done so; and that it
void be Wire Idle to eneollsr what these are, in order
that lbw —be reeked In any new syeem. If the coe-

" All Beef& inditstices sad mode of political action are
adapted to the ere ef a seem governing itself. In India,
the owe to be provided kr Is that of the government of one
nation by ans j separated from it by half the globe ;
it in everykkg which characterises a people ; es a
whole, totally mmognainted with It, and without time or
means for acquiring knowledge of it or its affairs.
" resents only two festinate in which these or
similar di ties have been fa any ocesiderable degree nor-
mounted. One is the Bemis Bmpre ; the other is the
government of India by the Bast India Company.
" The means which the bills provide formvercoming these
difficulties consist of the unchecked power of • miaistre.
There is no difference of moment in this respect between the
two bilis. The minister, it is true, is to have a council. Bat
the meet doge& roles have councils. The diaries°e
between the weed] el • despot, end a council which previals
the rake from being • despot Is, that the one Is depsetkot
on lelm, the ether bdependmt ; that the am hes use
power of its owe, the other ham not. By the fret WI the
whole ovule] is nominated by the =inkier. By the WOW
oarbalf of It is uoininated by him. The functions to be en-
trusted to it are lit, in both, with mom e slight exceptions, to
the rabilatifes own discretion.

" The eianleieileinde;orenbject to the control of parliament
and of the British nation. But though parliament and the
nation mercies a salutary control over their own affeirs, It
would be contrary to all expmience to suppose that they will
'nerds, it over the Whirs of a hundred millions of Rindoos
std liehonsedeas. Habitually, they will doubtless be
barsallsr as they have been heretofore, indifferent
and inattentive to Indian affairs, and will leave theta

that in the exceptions] caws in which they do interfere, the
latwfaranoe will not be pounded on knowledge of the sub-
ject, end will probably be for the most part confined to mem
whore en Indian question is taken up from party motives, as
the means of Injuring a minister ; or when some Imam
inaloontent, generally with objects opposed to good govern-
ment, succeeds in Interesting the sympathies of the ;abbe in
his !avow. For it is net the people of India, but rich indi-
viduals arid moieties representing class interests, who
have the means of engaging the ear of the public
through the pear, end through agents in parliament.
And it is important to remark, that by the provisions of
either of the bills, the House of Commons will be rendered
even lens competent, in point of knowledge of Indian affairs
than at present, since by both bills all the members of the
Council of India will beexcluded from it.

" The government of dependencies by a minister and hie
subordinates, under the sole control of parliament, is not a
new experiment In Inland. That form of colonial govern-
ment lost the United eaMea, and had nearly lost all the colo-
nies of any mesiderable population and importance.
The colonial ededeistration of this country hes
only ceased to be a subject of general °oedema-
don dace the priest* has been adopted of leaving
all the important Weeks to e their own affairs; a
course which ceased be followemanagd with the people of India. If
