41 Resolved—
" That it appears by the official documents laid be'bre this Court
...lig, in the year 1836, a secret inquiry was instituted, by order 0!
the Government of Bombay, into an alle;:eil breach of the treaty 01
The 25th September, 1:+19, subsisting lietwcen the East India Com-
PanY and his Highness l'ertaub Shear, the 11:ija of Sat tara.
"That on the 26th of October, lathi, th • Raja appeared talono the
secret Commission, consisting of Colonel Lodwick, Mr. Willoughby
!Ind Colonel Ovens, and requeste a Maliratta copy of so much of ill(
depositions of the two Soobalidars and the Brahmin as affected him-
Belt', which was not at the time objected to.'
" That on the 27th October the Commission w,re occupied the
treater part of thin day In preparing Malira,ta translations of the
evidence regarding the interview at the Palace, for the ultimate use
ef his Highness the Raja of Sattara.' (I'ar. Pa. No. 569 of 1813,
P• 348.)
" That Sir Robert Grant, Governor of Bombay, recorded in fl
Minute of Council, on the 15111 of August, 1817, (Par. Pa. p.
36, para. 12);—' that he was strongly of opinion that, before
the case is conclusively disposed of, the I: aja should be made
!rem:tinted with the fresh evidence that has been elicited against
Linn, and should be allowed the opportunity of offering' defence or
explanation.' And again, in his Minute of Council of the 20th of
Iteptember, 1837, (Par. Pa. p. 100, para. 13,) suggests, 'That colonel
),Talls should be instructed to prepare a complete it. lenient of
'ne ease which has been established against the Raja, in order
that when his inquiries are concluded, it may be furnished to hie
Illgliness for any such explanation, or answer, as he may choose
to offer.'
That Mr.Wathen,Chief Secretary to the Government of Bombay,
in his letter to Colonel thane, dated the 27th of September, 1837,
'directed Colonel Ovans to prepare a complete statement of the case
established against the Raja, that it may he furnished to the Raja,
and that if this statement be denied, his Highness should be con-
fronted with the witnesses, the most effective measures being adapted
for their protection.' (Par. Pa., p. 422, para. 48.)
"That Sir Robert Grant, again, in a Minute of Council, dated:the
alit of May, 1838, says, The Baja has not been told of the evidence
taken by Colonel Ovens, and undoubtedly has a right to be heard in
his ' I repeat this opinion (which lie) expressed in
a Minute of Council, in August, 1837, not meaning that there should
be merely the form or farce of a trial, to be closed by a ready-made
judgment, but that the defence should be fairly heard and impar-
Ueda` weighed.' (Par. Pa., p. 205, para. 53.)
Minute,
That Lord Auckland, the Governer-General of India, in a
21Inute, dated 23d of September, 1838, ordered in the following
words
I would, as suggested by Sir Ittpert Grant, request that the
'"eie should be furnished with a written statement, embodying a
tall and clear detail of the facts connected with the several charges,
and of the names (with any reservations which may be absolutely
l'etaired for the safety of the party) of the witnesses by whom they
Are proved, with a notice of the circumstances under which the evi-
dence was obtained, and call for from him, within a certain reason-
able time to be fixed, a similar written statement of whatever he
tAI.Y desire to urge in his own behalf.' (Par. Pa., p. 229, para. 12.)
Thatnotwithstanding the preparations of the evidence promised by
toe Commission (which closed its proceedings on the 4th November,
1846). and the repeated desire expressed by the Governor of Bombay,
and the Governor-General of India, that a statement of the whole oi
tis_te evidence taken against the Raja should be placed:in his Highness's
land, tech statement was withheld, for reasons secretly stated by
Colonel Ovens, Colonel Ovens personally Informing his Highness,
'That the proceedings of the Commission being strictly secret, it did
not consider itself authorised to grant a copy or any part of those
Proceedings to any person whatsoever.' (Par. Pa., p. 367.)
" That the dethronement of the late Raja of Sattara,when' no sud-
WI emergency, nor imminent danger, nor any preparations made by
hina for' commencing: hostilities,' threatened, without obtaining
the previous and express sanction of the Home authorities for the
act, was a violation of the 33d George Third, cap. 52, sec. 42 and
43, made and provided to guard against and prohibit the exercise of
such dangerous and despotic power by any subordinate authority in
India, viz. :
" Section 43—' It shall not be lawful for the Governor-General in
Council, without the express command or authority of the Court
of Directors, or of the Secret Committee, by the authority of
the Board of Control, in any case (except where hostilities
have actually Veen commenced, or preparations actually made
for the commencement of hostilities against the British nation in
• India), either to declare war, or commence hostilities, or enter
into any treaty for making war, Etc.'
"Resolved,—That this Court, taking all these circumstances into
Consideration, is of opinion that the dethronement of the Raja of
Battens, by Sir James Carnac, without furnishing hint with a copy
of the evidence taken in secret against him, and thereby withholding
from him the means of making a defence, and without the previous
consent and authority of the Court of Directors, or the Secret Coin.
Mince of that Court, and of the Board of Control, was unjust, pre-
mature, and contrary to law ; and, therefore, the guilt or innocence
of the late Raja of Setters, and the conduct of the Bombay Govern-
ment, in these transactions, ought to be made the subject of a public
and impartial inquiry, alike for the protection of the Princes of India
In alliance with the East India Company, from the perpetration of
similar wrongs, for the satisfaction of the ends of justice, and for
the vindication of the konour of the British nation, and the security
Of the British 'Empire in the East."

TO THE LADIES.
This lady had the following letter inserted in the "limes" news-
Paper on Aug. 7, 1546. Reader, remember, this letter was put into
the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
" Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor-
trinity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Brimstone, of the Ilerbary, High-
gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hairon her head, after using it about four months,
and the whole of her hair is stanch stronger and more luxuriant than
lever was before the baldness appeared.
"Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to:the virtues of Mr. G.'s
Rogenstor, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
an Hs. bottle it they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, net only in the restoration and production of hair in abund-
*Lee, but as a cure et nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume iti tar
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure In answering any
lady of respectability to the above tact .-3, Swan-street, Borough."
In eases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, ate w
drops on the crown of the bead occasionally. every week, will pre-
vent the hair from coming away with the comb, muse it strong, and
Prevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A
kw drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
hair brilliancy, causing it to curl.
The must delicate ladies may use this delightful product *1 the
most aromatic herbs end flowers with confidence ; its refreshing
Odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion
to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour tea or twelve drops
en the crown of the head ; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of as
hour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces
hair ou children's heads in a few apppllcations. If used OH' infants'
heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre-
-rent convulsions, as well as pm-noting the growth of hair.-see

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the *light of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could
itbe traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when
Used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excessest on
she nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
ihan any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete acconnt of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions In health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preservation of the health,
and of the physical capabilities of wldek every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether Required
In early life or from the follies of advanced age, while sufleriag
from their Invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a tear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. In actieg thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelliaeat and practical pkysiciam and to the
medical man who can show by his posse-sioa of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect la his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
guarantee for his professional experienee, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.

LVI One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing thorn married, questionably contented. DlMdence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes eiri-
tdttof the latter. The solitary one may shield himself ander the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the Indissoluble, regret um-
;yornpresing hurry; but the troth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
411c1 social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-
tlement. lionour and justice demand that health should form so item
in the cempact ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS•

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE..

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was less
firm, prices of all kinds being in favour of buyers.
Sales 4,000 bales, American being 41d. to 6d. per lb.
Railway Shares have been better supported, but there
was very little doing.
Accounts have come to hand dated the 16th by the
Mediator from New• York, but the letters are much the
same in tenour as those already received. The Wash-
ington steamer from New York brings dates of February
20, but as she only reached Southampton at half-past
eleven this morning, the papers are not .yet in town.
The moneyed and mercantile men of the City, and
we doubt not also of the country at large, are looking
with intense anxiety to tho progress of political events
abroad, as affording some clue to their future proceed-
ings, and it would appear, from the opportunity of
,judging which we possess, and from the conversation we
have held with many influential parties, that it is
regarded as being by no means expedient just now to
enter into operations connected with the Continent.
Great political changes must, it is held, take place from
north to south in Europe; and although the effect
ultimately, we may confidently hope, will be to
place the institutions of the various countries upon
a liberal and more enduring basis, the resist-
ance which is at first likely to be shown must
unhinge confidence. The Continent is much more vul-
nerable than England, and for a time, at least, we may
expect the latter, by persevering in a wise and firm
neutrality to become the favoured country for the de-
posit of the surplus and unemployed capital of surround-
ing nations. Indeed, it is the opinion of many that even
a continental war would be in no way prejudicial to us,
provided we act as did the United States of old, let ethers
fight while we trade.
The Paris bankers, Messrs. Gouin have suspended,
and at Amsterdam, among the firms in difficulties, are
Westendorp and Co., Mendes de Leon and Co., Thors,
Swarth, and Schellwald, and one or two others, mostly
connected with Stock Ex,.-.e.ngo and bill transactions.
The purchases of stock by the public generally have
not been materially checked by the news of the retire-
ment of M. Godechaux, the French Minister of Finance,
but speculators have sold upon it, and a few holders have
followed their example. Consols opened at 82k 4—a
fall of to per cent. upon the highest values paid
yesterday atter the close of the Stock Exchange—the
riots at Glasgow, and the feeling against the income-tax
having
.more to do with the decline, perhaps, than the
foreign intelligence received. At present Consols are
814 to 824. The Three per Cent. Reduced Annuities
have been 82} to 824. Bank Stock has realised 191 to
194. Exchequer-bills have risen to 255. and 30s. pre-
mium. _ _

The Foreign Stock Market is rather lively again, but
buyers are met still ra.her freely by sellers. Spanish
Five per Cents. are quoted 13 to 134, and the Three per
Cents. 24 to 245. Mexican bonds have realised
14i t) 151. Chilian bonds have been 89 to 90
Russian Stock has been at 97. The official Stock Ex-
change list yesterday morning, erroneously quoted them
93. Dutch Two-and-a-llalf per Cents. have fluctuated
from 424 to 44.
In the Railway Share Market a fair business has been
done, and the quotations of the English lines are
tolerably well supported. French Shares are, however,
again lower.
