1 Cil"CLUlThtalleeti tinder which the Resolution was
'evaded as to
A general misconception pi
the oblett of the Resolution, it having been sup-
posed.thut tin 'unregulated rind unrestrained nter-
course was to he allow-en' he,tween missionaries-and
the:natives of India. it intended by thelte-
solution thin' all IYel'3ons going to Imlia'as mission-
:lt let, should be 44 kihject to the regulation

01. the civil Government. Jle thought tlie Reso-
lution &Limed on principles to Which no reaAin-

able man could object. gany Centlenteh might
say the Itesohution watt not practically ucce:isary
but as Parliantent had on 611410' wi'asions PA-3501
Resolutions on the same subjyct. it would be an
inexcusable omission tO pass it over at. that time.
In former Rest,lutiors Pig-liameut 111113 ne‘er pre-
scribed the eontrOuling power %Odell %vas to pre-
vent unreasonable entroaehinents on the religion
of the natives, whereas, in the resolution submit--
ted to the House a olutrottling power was appoint-
ed. he cinc,stirin tin ii was, whethicv thd 11. solution
was 'or was .not politic. If the opposers of the
Meallt that MisSio4aries Should be pre-
vented- altogether from going to Win, they
would proceed 11pon principles directly opposite,
not only t(i the former practice of this nation, but
of every Christian country that ever had tiny Con-
nection with India. If there s'.llllild be an extes.!.

sire number of Missionaries appearing in India, h
should conceive that the- cootrolling power was
very improperly employed. Ile wished that all
discussion upon the sni)ject should be avoided as
much as possible. The extremes of principles
were unreasonable, for it would not be proper to
allow all persons to resort to India, except those
who'Vvent to teach the doctrines of Christianity;
nor that all persons who should say they were go-
ing to preach the Gospel should be allowed pro-
misctmusly to resort to India. He hoped that if
Gentlemen were determined to discuss the (pies-
tit»), that they would do it with temperance.
• Sir it Mosrroosisatv had resided twenty years.
in India, and during that time he had not heen
confined to a particatir spot, hut had been in al-
most every part of the British possessions in In-
dia. During the whole time of his residence
there, he *never knew an instance of a Hindoo
being converted to the Christiau faith. It was
said, that the attempt to introduce ChriStianity
Would not he dangerous ; he could, however, aSs
sett from his own knowledge, that it was time ap-
prehension of such an attempt which gave rise to
the insurrectionat Vellore, and Alters of the; sane
kind. The third resolution would, in his mind,
be fully sufficient, without having recont se to
this. •
Sir Faenzatcx DOUGLAS PpOlte in faVO4-r of the
Resolution.
Mr, WlLltentroacc said, it had loog been a de-
sideratum not only with him, but with many per-
sons high in-the Church, that some system of
Missionaries should be adopted is ith respect to
India. -He depeoded, however, more upon the
progress of knowledge in ltulia than upon any
efforts of the Missionari.es. For a number of years
this subject had occupied his thoughts, and all the
information. he could collect led him to differ from
the Honourable! Baronet (Sir Henry 111ontgc1-
mery). In that information, there was nothing
which could deter any rations! m,m from the at-
tempt to introduce Christianity. The variety of
sects among the Hindoos themselves, shelved that
'conversiou was not impossible.- • What had oc-
curred at-Vellore and at. Hydtabad did. nut
go it) .troy respect to prove that Christianity
could not be introduced with.satety, Objections
tsitniletr to those opposed to the present
tion had been opposed to the abolition of the
slave trade. They now all united to rejoice that
those with respect to putting an cud to that dis-
graceful traffic had passed away, and the day would
conic when those urged against attemptitig .the
conversion of the natives of India would no longer
be hvard.

therefo're had no very high value for the labours
of the Missionaries,

Mr. ALEXA'SIDE4 resisted the resolution.
Sir T. SUTTON Objected to the'proposition be-
fore the ;louse. fie thought it would defeat its.
own object, as it was not the way to convert an-
other to our
,opinions, to set out by stating such
to be our intentions. Every thing desirable to be
done with respect to Mksionaries,. might be ',done
without danger under the third Resolution.

solution.

Jr.A W. SMITH followed an the some side. Ile
said, let men tenr when there was leason.to fear:;

there was no, muse for alarm.

LUSIIINGTON said, the present resolution
would not be dangerous to our Government in
India. He was sorry it had not been adopted be-

Mr. H. THORNTON Supporte.d the Resolution,

Emperor arrived there at the moment when he

King of fax` nay Arilit fa' see the Emperor; Who

the gtound.tloor, and a 'handsome park—the

bited, hayingoo prden. At seven in the evening
the Emperor received M. de Kass, Minister of the
Interior and of Justice, from the King of Den-
mark.

A Danish brigade of the auxiliary
placed tinder the Prince of Eckumhl'S orders, on
the 2d of June took possession of .I..mbeek.
The Priace of Moskiva, On the 10th was at
Breslau, the Duke of Treviso at Glogau; the
Duke-of. BeHutto at Grossen, the Duke of iteggio
upon the frontiers of S:; pony and Prussia, on the
riertin,side. The armistice had every where been
published ; the troops were making 'preparations
to place their barracks, and eaCanip in their re-
spective positions, from Glogau and Leiguitz, to
the frontiers of Bohemia and Goerlitz.

HANS IS V tun, JUNG 6,—s report has become too
public in this town and iu Altona, to admit of our
withholding it from our readers :—We are assured
that General ...Vet tennorn has just-closed his finan-
cial mission to Hamburgh, by selling the'Hanse-
laic Legion to England. They even go further,
and mention. the price ; that of a cavalier mounted
armed, and equipped, fixed at forty-two gui-
neas, and that of an infantry soldier, also equip-
ped,, 12 guineas.
Two facts give considerable probability to this
• report. Deserters. say, that for some clays the
Cossacks have redoubled their vigilance round the
Legion, to prevent the desertion of volunteers,
disgusted with a war, the object of which appears
daily inure distant froM that 'which had been pre-
sented them in perspective, mid as being easy of
execution. On the other side, all Hanover will
recollect that the Duke of WIS. liyitig alter the
last Austrian war, was tact between nanover arid
I3reinen by English Commissioners, charged with
purchasing the men who had devoted themselves
to his fca•tunes.
