" Resolved,—That as the peace and security of our possessions in
India depend mainly on the faithful observance of existing treaties,
t is most important that the East India Company should maintain
all engagements with the Native States with inviolable good faith
and honour.
That a treaty of perpetual friendship and alliance between the
honourable East India Company and his Highness Maharaja Pertaub
Shean, his heirs and successors, was concluded on the 25th of Sep-
tember, 1819, and afterwards duly ratified, by which, in consideration
of the anticatity of the House of his Highness the Raja of Sattara,
• sad for State reasons of paramount importance, the British Govern-
' Ment agreed to cede, in perpetual Sovereignty to him, his heirs, and
• successors, the territory of Sattara, for the maintenance of his family
It; Comfort and dignity.
" That his Highness the late Raja for upwards of seventeen years
governed his country and fulfilled all the conditions of his treaty with
• the British Government in so exemplary a manner, that in Decem-
' her 1835, the Court of Directors unanimously, with the sanction of
the Board of Control, sent a sword of honour and a letter to his
Highness, which letter was expressed in the following words :
" Your Highness. .
" We have been highly gratified with the information from time to
time transmitted to us by our Government, on the subject of your
nighneea's exemplary flilfilment of the duties of that elevated situa-
tion in which it has pleased Providence to place you.
" A course of conduct so suitable to your Highness's exalted sta-
-31°,1, and so well calculated to promote the prosperity of your do-
Minions, and the happiness of your people as that which you have
wisely and uniformly pursued, while it reflects the highest honour on
your own character, has imparted to our minds the feelings of nnquit-
hlod satisfaction and pleasure.
' " The liberality, also, which ynu have displayed, in executing it
• Your own cost, various pnblic works of great utility, and which has so
justly raised your reputation in the eyes of the princes and people of
nal", i(iyes you an additional claim to our approbation, respect, and

Imlt'realleil with these sentiments, the Court of Directors have
Unanimously resolves to transmit to you a Sword, which will be pre-
!ented to you through the Government of Bombay, and which we
trust you will receive cal satisfaction, as a token of their high es-
teem and regard.

" 29th December, 1835."
• . " That notwithstanding this unexampled testimony to his
Merits as a sovereign and as a man, the late Raja of Sattara was de-
. Dosed by the Government of Bombay on the sth of September, 1839,
for an alleged breach of treaty, and has recently died an exile at
Benares, solemnly protesting his innocence, and never ceasing to de-.
Mend, to his dying hour. the opportunity of preying it.
• "That Major J.D. Carpenter, the officer who had the custody of the
-Raja's person, and was in constant communication with him for more
than seven years, from the time ot his arrival at Benares up to the
day of his death, wrote his own deliberate opinion, when called upon
th his letter to the Governor-General, dated Benares, 25th May, 1846,
in the following words—(See Parliamentary Papers, No. 711, of
1847 To this_end I-careftilly studied the whole of the voluminous
• -documents connected with his (the Raja's) case, and the result was a
• belief in hii innocence; and this belief has been confirmed beyond a
doubt by subsequent disclosures, and by his pledging himself to prove
It (his hinecence) if permitted to do so, in his letter to Sir henry
Ilardinge, of the 12th December, 1844, forwarded through me, which
pledge am full persuaded he (the Raja is able to redeem."
" That it further appears that the whole of the late Raja's private
t rope.
--Y was seized contrary to a distinct written pledge, under the
and of Sir James Carn:tc, the Governor of Bombay, confirmed by
three notes from Colonel Ovans, the Political Resident at Sattara,
'which
property was never restored.
"Therefore resolved,—That. considering the responsible functions
entrusted to this Company by the Legislature, and having regard for
the honour of the empire, and security and good government ot the
people
and princes of India, this Court earnestly recommends to the
the
of Directors to obtain the sanction of the Board of Control to
ne instituting of a public and impartial inquiry into the charges
brought against the late Raja of Sattara, and into the manlier in which
the published evidence against him has been obtained, in order that
the trath or falsehood of that evidence may be made manifest, and
the
tritish Government purged from the imputation of having
treated the late Raja of Sattara harshly, illegally, or vindictively."

DECLARATION OF HYGEISTS.
_Whereas passing events are every day confirming the truth of
-Mr. MORISOI.I'S . SYSTEM of MEDICINE, in the support of
Which we have for many years been engaged, firmly believing that
that system is the only true one, viz., that all diseases proceed from
att impurity of the blood and fluids, and can therefore only be eradi-
9ated by proper vegetable purgation, we feel ourselves called upon
thus to record our adherence to Hygeian principles.
We also declare our belief in the incalculable benefits to be derived
rrOin the Sanitary Commission, which provides clean habitations and
Pure air for tke poorer classes, which, together with a proper system
Of vegetable purgation (to be carried out by all without the necessity
o medical advice), is all that is necessary for keeping the nation in a
healthy state, and warding off attacks of cholera, influenza, or any
-Other epidemic that may present itself.
We further protest, as in the petition presented to Parliament by
Sir Benj. Hall, Bart., in the session of 1847, signed by 20,000 of the
People, against the poisons sold as medicines in the chemists' shops ;
.such as laudanum, prussic acid, arsenic, strichnia, &c. ; all of which
We consider engines of death and not of life, however administered.
