EAST-INDIA HOUSE.-(THIS DAV.)

This morning a Quarterly General Court of the Pr°
prietors of East-India Stock was held in the Court-room
The Chair was taken at 12 o'clock by R. G. RavgNso,ll;
Esq., when the minutes of the last Court were read s°
confirmed.
The CHAIR MAN then laid on the table copies of
correspondence between the Court of Directors and It'
Commissioners of India affairs respecting Juries in Ind°
a list of superannuations granted during the year to '1:,
vents of the Company in England ; and a series of psr
connected with the College.
The CHAIRMAN also announced that the address age,
to at the last special meeting bad been presented W
Majesty, and was most graciously received.
Mr. POYNDER wished to ask whether any or what pr
gress had been made by the Directors towards abolisbio
that tax on idolatry which was levied on the car of Jul
gernaut.
The CHAIRMAN said the only information upon tti
subject which he had to give was, that the question trr
still under the serious consideration of the Court and It;
Commissioners.
•
A PROPRIETOR wished to set the gentleman right•
seemed to assume, that the practice be complained of 10
been reprobated by a Court of Proprietors. Such
not the fact. Neither in his opinion would the abaliti?o,
of that tax tend in the slightest degree to do away o'l°
Hindooissn, but would merely throw snore power it°
the hands of the Brahmins.
Mr. POYNDER was perfectly aware the question
not been settled by a Court, nor had he assumed th'
it had, as he might have done, fur he br
merely withdrawn his motion upon the dear ondel:,
standing that the Court of Directors would give P'
subject their most earnest attention. Learning, as he di'
that it was still under their consideration, be was quite cti°
tent yet to leave it there for a short time. He was 11°
fectly aware that he had the Directors with him both 01
that question and that of the suttee, and if the Lord spar'
him, he would accomplish the abolishment of both.
Mr. LOWNDES then rose, and went into one of 9',
rambling speeches. He said he for one did not care
farthing for the British public. He was against the Jug
gernaut system, but as to the worshipping of idols, CO
we be astonished at it in the ignorant natives of 104
when the people of this country for the last six mod°
had shown themselves such infatuated and blind woeshirj
pers of that great bear, the public Press. If you 011 i
missionaries to India, you will lose it,—.they
raise a flame as they lately did in the West Indi's
The Gentleman then got into a long and Of,
bling abuse of the editors of the Press, and
comparative merits of a report of an accident at
mersmith as it appeared in the Times and Morsif4l
Post, when
Mr. LUSH spoke to order. The entertainment itsj
very good, but that was not the proper place for it. I,
The CHAIRMAN was about to put the question of au
journment, when
Mr. POYNDER said he had one more question to 11-4.,
He wished to know the result of any measures 01',
by the Court for the appointment of two suffragan Bisilq
for India.
The CHAIRMAN could give no information on the sett
ject, nor did he think it was a proper question. No el"
pointment could be made without an Act of Parliatnenr'e
A PROPRIETOR said such an appointment bad be
1,0
negatived by a former Court, and ought not now to
been revived.

Mr. POYNDER said, the question had not been Deg!'
tived—he had withdrawn his motion upon an tld'
standing.
Mr. LGWNDES was very anxious to address the qtr
once more, but was stopped. He then supposed he w
not to be heard because he would not bow down and
ship the Directors, nor care a pin for one of them. t
The CHAIRMAN cut the Hon. Proprietor short by 03°
ing an adjournment, which was carried.

This day has produced most important events. 01
letter at Lloyd's, from their agent at Deal, corroborate pt
statement in the Morning Journals of heavy and irrehlio
firing having been heard there from the opposite coa"001

been received at Harwich to the same purport ; the fit1:01
supposed to be the bombardment of Antwerp by Ge_dl
Chasse. As yet we are left in the dark who comma
hostilities, and all that we can say on the subject at P off
is, that the above account of the bombardment of Ant 041
does not gain credit in the City, as take it which wallee
will, the distance from Antwerp to Calais is 100 tWeiti
as well as from Harwich. This is the argument of our h ,ol)
politicians and the Stock Exchange gentleman, Who,
that a cannonade cannot be heard 100 miles off eve°
