THE AMEEBS OF SCINDE

Colonel DICKINSON moved for a continuation of the
documents relating to Ali Moorad, and for a copy of
Sir George Clerk's minute, dated April 24, 1848. He
did so with a view to show the innocence of the Anieers
on the minor charges brought against them, and to
which the limited power of the commission appointed to
investigate the question of Scinde did not extend.
Mr. CLARKE seconded the motion.

The CHAIRMAN said he had no objection to produce
the continuation of the correspondence since the 22d of
February, 1851, but he could not consent to produce
the report of Sir G. Clerk, because the Government
had declined producing it to Parliament, and it would
not be courteous or becoming on the part of the Court
of Directors to publish a document which the Minister
said it was inexpedient to lay before the House of
Commons.

After some discussion, the motion (with the exception
of Sir G. Clerk's report) was agreed to.
Colonel DICKINSON then gave notice of the following
motion for next Court-day :

" That this Court is of opinion that the patrimonial
estate of the late Meer Roostum' of Kyrpoor, which had
been fraudently appropriated by Meer Ali Moorad, and
which have recently been resumed by tho British Govern-
ment, be restored to Mahomed Hussein, and the other
sons of the late Meer Roostum, or that equivalent stipends
in lieu thereof be assigned to them and their descendants.
Also, that like provision be made for the sons of Meer
Mobareck."
The Court then adjourned.
