ground. on which an annuity of 6,0001. a year was grunted
to the 'Marquis of Dalhousie. and consider whether the
recent events are not to be attributed to the mune of con-
duct pureued by the Marquis of Dalhousie."
The Cu‘IRKAN leaked the mart whether he ought to re-
ceive such a notice . the pension had been granted to Lord
Naomie with all the form required by the act of parliament
and meld not be withdrawn. He asked the court to support
has Lu refusing to receive such a notice.
Mir. LEWIN protested against the despotic conduct of the
chairman. Ho did not wish to Home l,rd Dalhousie nor
to take away his pension; he believed if he had been in
India his energy would have put down the mutiny, but he
wished to have the grounds on which the pension was
grunted re-oonsidevid. If the notice via not received he
would consider whether meadamus would not force them
to do so. . . _
