INDIA.

( From the Oriental Herald for Jane 1824.)
" Sir lionr•.n•r FAILQUIIAIt.—We hear that this Gentleman
has been declared by the Attorney-General to be eligible by
law to a seat in the Direction, and by Mr. Sergeant Bosanquet
to be ineligible. This is one of the advantages of a system of
law in which the sense is perpetually obscured by the multipli-
city of words. The authority of the last legal Gentleman is,
however, in higher esteem with the East India Proprietors than
that of the Crown-Officer ; and it is therefore probable, we
should think, that Sir Robert will not persevere, till he has
resided the prescribed term of two years in England,—or that,
if he perseveres before this, he will risk a failure.

" Mr. CHARLES BrtLER.—To the list of Candidates for
the Direction, already including nine or ten individuals, we
hear that 31r. Charles Buller, lately one of the Board of Com-
missioners for the Interior, on the Bengal Civil Service, will
be added : and it is believed that the legitimate influence of his
fascinating and accomplished lady will produce a powerful
rivalry in that personal solicitation for votes, which has often
before been engaged in by some of the fairest and most exalted
women in England, and to which few of the other candidates
can, perhaps, oppose an equally powerful charm.

" Mr. JAMES STUART.—This Gentleman, late a Member
of Council in Bengal, has been returned a Member of Parlia-
ment for the borough of Huntingdon, on the ground of his
being well acquainted with India. and connected with the
house of Hinchinbrook. We doubt, however, whether Mr.
Stuart's knowledge of India was the real cause of his return for
the borough named ; the family-connexion was, no doubt, the
strongest recommendation. It remains to be seen whether he
will give the Parliament of the country
the benefit of his Indian
information—we sincerely hope he may.

" DEBATE IN THE Commoxs.—On the 25th May, when
the debate on the Indian Press, and Petition presented to the
Commons, took place, the House was e:;tremely full, as much
so as it has been observed on any question discussed in the pre-
sent session. The attendance of strangers
was also very nu-
merous. Nearly the whale of the East India Directors were
present, either in the body of the House,
or on the cross
benches under the gallery.
The Ladies of some of these, and
of other Gentlemen connected with India, were in the apart-
ment above, where only they are permitted to be. Some of the
candidates for the Direction, as
well as Officers of the Com-
pany's service, were also Present; and great interest was evi-
dently felt by all in the issue of the debate. The absence of
all denial or argument on the
Part of the Board of Controul, of
Ministers, and of the Directors, left the facts and opinions of
the Petition entirely unanswered ; and the impression created
by the statements it disclosed was evinced in every part of the
House, by the alternate e.:2ressions of
which these called forth. surprise and indignation

" ORIENTAL pLUD,.:—This new institution proceeds rapidly
towards completion. here are already, we hear, more than
500 members entered, and the number to be admitted is said to
be extended to 800. Their regular meeting will therefore soon
commence. If care be taken in guarding against the admis-
sion of objectionable members, we see no good reason why. there

should be any limitation in poil

Letters have been received from Trieste, dated
on the 14th current, which advise the receipt of intelligence
from Alissolonghi, dated on the 3d of May. It must afford sin-
cere satisfaction to those who are friendly to the restoration of
Grecian civilization, to learn, that General CoLocornoxi,his
sons, and his partizans, have not only submitted themselves to
the orders of the Senate, but that their influence and exertions
have been again restored to the service of their country : for
the Senate, as soon as it was convinced of the sincerity of Ge-
neral Cor.ocoTnoxfs submission, restored to him its confi-
dence, and directed him to resume the investment of Patriot,
which will now therefore secure the speedy surrender of that
important fortress. The Senate also directed one of the Ge-
neral's sons to proceed to Cildia with reinforcements, and, if
possible, to liberate that island from the yoke of the barba-
rians. The consequence of the submission of Co 1. ocoT no sr
was the occupation of Napoli di Romania by the Senate.—
The greatest unanimity prevailed amongst all classes in the
3lorea, and preparations had been made on the most extensive
scale to repel the Turkish invasion, should any be actually at-
tempted. /shine of their ships, however, had at these dates ap-
peared on the coast.
From every quarter, the intelligence received respecting
Greece is highly satisfactory, and a short time only is requisite
to enable the inabitants to enjoy the reward of their persevering
exertions in the cause of independence and civilization.

JunGmENT.—ln the Insolvent Debtors' Court
this morning, jaws Rogers came up to claim his discharge.
lie was opposed by several creditors for contracting debts with
them when in insolvent circumstances, and without any proba-
bility of paying them. After a long investigation, the Court,
in giving Judgment,
said it was clearly proved against the in-
solvent that he had committed fraud, and his misconduct was
sufficient to place him under the 16th section ; therefore the
sentence of the Court was, that the insolvent should not be
entitled to any benefit of this Act until he had been confined
within the walls of the prison for a period of six months.
