motion for resuming the aujourned debate on
1/ALLIE said the Government of India had all

T TLE

ready taken into consideration this sui'.-ject, and bad taken
steps for rendering the position of rho Ameers of Sinde-
as agreeable as possible. As far back as 1841 the Go-
vornmenE, of India Lock into their serious consideration
all the mutters which the Noble Lord who had intro.
duced this question had brought under the notice of
the House, and a resolution was Como to tilt every es,
sists.nce should be afforded to tnesti unfortunate Pr:inces',
until the whole of the matter in dispute coon be cleared
up. The Noble Lord represented tone Arceero ss medeli
of virtue and henesty, but be had heard a very cliffrrat
account of them. However he should be sorry to pro-
nounce any opinion upon that point. He did not object to
:he terms of rho motion, but what he did find fault with
was, that the Noble Lord should have io ked up a matter
of state policy t.vbich was sup posed to have been settled
as far back tie 1844. There would be no objection to
produce the papers, but as their production would re-
open a settled question, he could not help expressing his
conviction that it would be injudicious to do so.
After a le, words from Colonel ESICOURT,
Mr. HERRIES repeated that there would be no oh-
jattion to produce the papers, but in the absence of the
Noble Lord who made this motion, it was not necessary
for him to trouble the House with any lengthened ob-
servations to show that it would be iniudicious to call for
them. The two principal p.Jp,rs whiun the Noble Lord
asked for would he readily forthcoming.
Mr. HUME said, in reference to the Ameers of Sinde,
the impr[..s,,,ion which prevailed in 1843 that the British
Govalarnant had been made the victim of an artful
fraud, had been confirmed by subsequent inquiries,
and it was, therefore, the duty of the
Legislature to do tardy justice to these in-
jured Princs. The papers n3w called for
would give but an inadequate history of the whole oc-
currences in Sinde, and ho hoped, on a future occasion,
the House and the country would be put in possession of
all the facts of the case. Years had rolled by since the
injustice was perpetrated, but it was never too late to
make amends for the wrong which had been done, and
he was rejoiced to hear that there was new a prospect of
the Ameers of Sinde obtaining some substantial redress
fur their sufferings. Much deception had been practised
unon Parliament in reference to this case, and he trusted
that, for the sake of justice and humanity, the Govern-
ment would now produce all the papers in full, and thus
give the country an opportunity of considering the whole
matter.

Tho motion was than agreed to.
FOREIGN POSTAGE.

Mr. JACOB BELL wished to inquire of her Ma-
jesty's Government us to the further progress of the
negotiations for the reduction of the postage of letters
blwcen France end England; also whether it is in
contemplation to effect a general reduction of foreign
postage?
Mr. HAMILTON said negotiations wore still pending
upon this important subject both with France and the
United States, and it wee hoped that they would be
brought to a satisfactory termination.
The House then adjourned at a Quarter to Two o'clock.
