qualified, referring to Chapter 1, Section 3, of the By Laws, which
ordains that all ' proceedings of Parliament which, in the opinion of
the Court of Directors may affect the rights, interests or privileges

sideration of a General Court to be specially summoned for that
purpose, before the same shall pass into a law,' request that a Spe-

the, stipulations of the Bill as it now stands, will prove injurious and
ratjust towards a large portion of the British Territories in India,
but particularly to those under the Presidencies of Madras and
Bombay.
