who have been called upon, first by the Company,
afterwards by the Crown, to preside over the destinies
of Hindostan. Twice the Marquis of CORNWALLIS was
ruler in this way of Julia, his first pro-consular reign
beginning in 178 G, his second in 1805—so that in
that way there will have been (counting Lord MAYO'S
rule as one actually commenced) twenty-four Gover-
nor-Generalship's since the first and greatest of them

WARREN HASTINGS to Lord MAYO, both inclusively--
there have been twenty-three Governor-Generals. And
of Lord MAYO'S twenty-two predecessors it is perfectly
well known that there have been several who, like him-
self, have assumed power without the faintest
gleam being afforded by their antecedents as to how
that power might be exercised when it had fallen into
their hands. Conspicuous among these were both
the Earl of DALHOUSIE and Viscount CANNING. And
