GOVERNMENT OF INDIA (No. 3) BILL.

On cruse 33, a postponed clause,
Mr. MONSELL called attention to the omission of
the continuance of Ad discombe eolleze as a place for
training cadets.
Lord STANLEY said the words had been purposely
omitted from the bill, because it was thought better to
lay down the principle of the bill, and leave the details
to be decided on hereafter more at leisure. He ex-
pressed the opinion of the Government that it was de-
sirable those who went out as cadets should have served
some time in a military college, and he believed Addis.
cousbe bad admirably answered the purposes for which
it was established.
After some remarks from an Bort. MEMBER,
The clause, after some amendment, was agi•eed to.
Clause 35, a new clause, providrs that one tenth of
the whole number of persons to be recommended in one
year shall be given to the sons of person; who have
served in India.
After some remarks from Mr. BLACKBURN and Mr.
MILNES,
Co!. SYKES said the principle involved in the clause
bad been often attempted by the East India Director:,,
but tae difficulty was of ascertaining who had the bestclaims, and it had in consequence broken down, and
been abandoned by them. There was no necessity for
the clause. Tho patronage *night be lift to the council
unbiassed and untrammelled iu any manner how they
should dispense it.
Mr. V. SMITE said this clause would establish here-
ditary offices, if carried out universally. It would be a
good principle to carry out in cases where men had dis-
tiniutshed themselves, and he suggested an alteration in
the clause to that effect.

Sir E. C.bbrooko, Sir F. Smith, Sir 11. Itawlinson,
and Col Sykes having ncldressed the committee on the
clause,

Lor-d STANLEY dtAnded its retention in the bill.
He apprehended thern would be no difficulty in carrying
the clause into effect other than that the number
of dtairving c'aimanta might be greater than the
vancancies to be filled up. That was the ca ,e
in almost every case where patronage had to be
dispensed. The way to got over the difficulty
had referred to vJas by adopting a limited competi-
tion in such cases. since be ha i been conneo:ed with
Indian affairs he had seen sufficient to be convinced
there were a class of Indian dffuers who would look
upon this clause as the most valuablaibewaid they could
look forward to for their ch.ldren.

Sir E. COLEBROOKE suggested the words after
served in India "with distinction" .hould be added.
Tue CEIANCELLOR of the EXCaEQUER, raid it
wa3 ohjsetionale to limit it in the maanor proposed ; it
would he better to leave it to the discretion of the com-
mittee.
The c'atrte was then added to the Lill.

O 1 tlanze 3F, a new clause, providing that sll pc, 0 ,
to be recommtuded for military Cit det.uips shall be
