British „India, extending over 500,000 square miles of the most
fertile part of Asia, and containing one hundred million of indus-
trious, peaceful, and intelligent inhabitants, peculiarly requires a
combination of capital, sk ill, and energy for the full development of
the valuable and varied products which are indigenous to the soil.
The recent abrogation of exclusive commercial privileges in the
East—the late enactments for facilitating the renting or pur-
chasing of land—the abolition of transit tolls in Bengal—the
equalisation of duties on the produce of the East and West
Indies, when imported into the United Kingdom—the appli-
cation of improved machinery to various arts and manufac-
tures—the large ,and extending demand in Europe for sugar,
c;iffee, cocoa, cotton, silk, indigo, tobacco, tea, spices, &c.—
the dissolution of the large mercantile firms of Calcutta—the
increasing pecuniary drain on the Indian revenues to defray political
charges in England—the consequent desire to strengthen the
commercial connection between both countries—the fact that ou'r
cotton manufactures and 3,800,000/. of tobacco revenues are de-
Pendenfon the jealous and unstable amity of the United States'
Governrhent, with 9,000,000 of slaves employed on those staplesr;
and that the important and lucrative trade in sugar, molasses, rum,
B'c., from which 5,000,000!. of revenue is received, is put to se-
rious hazard by negro emancipation in the West Indies ; but above
all, the paramountly moral obligation of Britain to use every pos-
sible exertion for promoting the welfare and happiness of the vast
populatiOn entrusted to her care—each and all combine to demand
the formation of a Company which, seeking no monopoly or ex-
clusive rights, and relying solely on the economical, judicious, and
profitable employment, of itsconcentrated capital, vigilant attention,
and skilful agency, may fairly rank with those national institutions
that not only enrich their proprietors, but confer honour, security,
and wealth on the whole community of the empire.
