TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST INDIA
_ _ _ _ STOCK.

Ladies and Gentlemen,— - -----
i
By the advice of my friends and f others acquainted with my ca-
reer as a civil servant of many yea standing, I have decided on of-
fering myself as a candidate for a tin the direction of the affairs
of the East India Company.
I have held the highest offices under the MadraslGovernment, hav-
ing been at different periods collector and magistrate of three pro-
vinces ; for several years a judge of the Provincial Court of Circuit ;
and, lastly, for five years a judge of the Suddr Udawlut, the highest
civil and criminal jurisdiction in India.
Before my xetiretnent from the civil service I received a prori-
sional appointment to a seat in the Council of the Madras Govern-
ment. .

Should I be so fortunate as to obtain my object, you may
rely on
my devoting my attention to the affairs of a country to which I owe
much, and 10 the interests of a people who never more than at the
present time stood in need of support to qieve them from a condition
of poverty and general depression.
I will now place before you a concise statement of the grounds on
which I seek at your hands an othce which would seem the especial
attribute of those to whom various employment in the public service
and long residence in India have given a practical acquaintance with
its wants and means of improvement.
