EAST INDIAN JUDICATURE. _

The MaT;isoiCLlNitiattnE, in moving for a
copy of the minutes of the Lieut.-Governor of Bengal on
the criminal administration of that country, and other
papers on the same subject, took occasion to observe
that the measures adopted by the East India Company
were a mockery of justice, and tended only to secure
delay. The Company's courts were objected to by the
natives generally, and by Europeans specially. Many
of the j Ages were notoriously unfit for their function.
The directors were a fiction, which came between the
Government and India, and alone saved the former from
the' indignation of the c 'entry.

The Duke of ARGYLL defended the Government
Board of Control, and the directors, all of which he pro-
nounced to be excellent institutions, working well, and
not to be disturbed by either complaints or clamour from
those the noble lord represented. To administer justice
in India was very difficult, and unless they could afford
to draft English lawyers to India it mu,t continue so.
It was their duty to see that justice was properly admi-
nistered, and they would do so to the utmost of their
power. They were even now adopting measures for the
purpose.
Lord MONTEA.GLE said that was the old story,
" wait, wait." Toe Government broke faith in 1833
with the people of India. Let Queen's judges be sent
over as far as possible to the native courts.
The Earl of ALBENIARLE would not present cer-
tain petitions on the subject at that tithe, as there were
only two or three peers present.
The Duke of ARGYLL consented to the production
of the papers requested.
Their lordships then adjourned.
