Tug INDIAN ZUTITINY.

- conteroporary a 3 f allows_ :
‘1111u,:h as we •may deplore the bloodshed and

disorganisation re,ul,ing from the recent mutinies
; in India, no partial observer of the progress of
native society can NI to r -joiee that !he moment
his arrived when,-the GuV,rninent must yield to
the suggestion frequenly offered, that it is expe-
dientgrektly to reduce tile native army, and sub-
slitute for the disbanded a smaller but more reliable
European force. The diseases of society, like the
disorders_ incid'ntal to the human frame, always
80+301 to require a crisis before the curative agenCies
can be rendered, efficaeious. , Heaven knows bow
long the gross imperfections of our _own finny
would hive -caufinned to flourish like evil weeds,
had 'not the Crimean war brought them them t- a
culminating point and forced remedial me,sures
upon- our attention. The Indian mutiny, though
perhaps of lers importance to. the European eye
than a war with Russia, is, neverthelesS, in its
way a very instructive catastrophe, and I venture
to call upon you, as the great pion-er of all our
cial reforms,- to aff atd your powerful- aid in con-
tributing to the' only remedy-for the evils which
affect us its India, and -the only sore protection
against similar calamities for the fir ure.
"Many of the -most distinguished officers of the
Indian army have held high opinions of the bravery
and fidelity of- the native troops. Malcolm, Adams,
Ochterloey, Nett, and others were loud in their
praise, be-eause they- had on several occasions dis-
played great daring, self-denial, and •an ardent
attachment to.the British Government. Granting
their merit, it must still be admitted that the per-
nicious - consequences of their caprice and the
limited charac er of their utility mere than counter?,
balance-their pretensions to be regarded as a force
worth, of respect and retention. The Indian army
is, at best, but a-local police, possibly useful, under
Europesn example, in protecting the frontier against
external foes (when we have not any to. the Nerth),
but anything but reliable as a ,protection agaiuet
internal discord, and quite effete as an auxiliary in
European wars. A country like England, in form-
ing'an army, should have in view its adapt lion to
all one wants, foreign, domestic, and colonial. The
facilities .of ititercourse established all over the
world admit, of the. rapid removal of troops to airy
point where Vie:it services may be required. Their
suitableness fur general employment should there-
fore be the first consideration in their formation.
This important p -int has been overlook,d in c. eat-
ing the India army, and we consequ- ntly experi-
enced the mortification of knowing during the late
war will Russia that we were paying upwards of
250,000 men whose services were nut available in
the greatest struggle in which we were ever eu-
gaged.

" This alone is an argument against the retent'on
of a disaffected fora() upon its present scale ; but
other suggest, themselves, irrespective of the ittaii-
plicaliility of the army to general purposes and the
pervading mutinous spirit. The prteo mity of Eng-
land to our Indian Empire, which admits of the
rapid despatth of reieforcements ; the establish.
!tient of the railway system in India, which ena-
bles us to di3peese with the Sepoys as tressure
es-ores, provision and store convoys, &c. ; the in-
troduction of the elitc-ric telegraph and the extinc-
tion of all frontier fors with whom it were difficult
to fight an even bat le, constitute irtesis ible ar-
guments in favour of early and exteesive reduc-
tions. 'We may, p rhaps, be exile sed to the bare
chances ot an irruption of Affghass or Nepaulese,
but, inasmuch as. the Sepoys demonstrated in the
last war with the, former aid with the Sikhs, le ev
incapable thy are of eornpeing with hardy moun-
taineers or organised troops, our sole reliance must
be en the Eurt peens.
"From-these general reasons against the con-
tinuance of the empleyment of tl'e native troops
we may go to the causes immediate ly in hand— tee
disposition to mutiny which the Sepoy has matti-
tested during the last 8U years, and especially at
the commr-nceraint of any campaign.. He has never
been at a loss fur a pretext for disaffection. In
those moments he contrives to forget that he is a
" Nimul The salt of the East. India Com-
pany has then lost its savour. He either disc avers
that he will lose his caste if he goes from the Indian
shores by sea, or he wants extra batta, or he needs
carriage, or l e wishes to take his family with him,
each of these being so many grounds of extortion.
In peace time his discontent finds vent in his
affected attachment to his r, ligion—sometime s
leather his been his abhorrence,, and now he has
found a mutinous ally in mutton fat. I say de-
liberately his afftc ed attachment,' because the
instances are not rare in which the Septty has
readily adopted usages which are incompatible with
the strict injunctions of caste.
" These man in the minds of dispassionate men,
appear to be valid reasons why we should take ad-
vantage of the present crisis to work out an organic
change in the constitution of our Indian army, and
I conjure you not to relax in your efforts to
achieve .so very import ant an object. In the
opinions here expressed I present the result of 20
year's experience of India and an intimate acquaint-
ance with the army of our Eastern territory.
Toe), are probably opposed to those of tee Eart
India Company's Government and the offit_•ers in
their empley, but they lose, I submit, Ii tie of their
cogency on that acceunt. The cobsti:utit in of the
Court of Directors disqualifies it hom the cat did
and impartial consideration of the subject at issue.
The intimate relations of the majority of that b tdy
to the civil and military services, the vast patron-
age which the continuance of the pres-nt se stem
_concentrated in their hand, and the dislike which
settled Governments entertain to great innovations
which involve trouble and ignore their claims to
pre-eminent wisdom, ferm strong grounds for their
resistance to the sweeping change which recent
circumstances so powerfully rea mmend.
"India:, I repeat, has nothing to fear from
foreien invasion. The great bugbear Russia broke
down in her attempt in 1840, and her army was
destiayeti before it reached Khiva by famine, cold,
anal pestilence, and she has furnished us recently
with a far more memorable and decided proof of
her inability to maintain armies at any distance
from her centres in the cehbrated siege of Sebas-
topol. If Russia be unable t , support an army in
her own territory, iu one of the most formidable
strongholds in the world, what poss laity is there
of her marching an army over deserts and imprac-
ticable toads, removed from her own territory and
supplies by vast distances, to encounter in the
Bolan or the Khe ber Passes—places of great
natural str-ngth—a British force in its own terri-
tory, amply supplied, with all the rest-titre sof
India at its back, aid with railways concentiat ng
troops on all and every pant necessary 7
" But, if invasion were eve r pc-:stble it can only
be met and resisted successfully by European
troops. If it were being attempted at this moment
we might find our native army flocking to the
standard of our foe', and deranging and disarga-
nising all the plans of our wisest and best genera s.
India has only to druid the Sepoys whom we enlist
and pay--e--the population are quiet and peaceable
deprived of the arms of strength an t the nuc'eus
for organised and armed revolt which we create in
our 250,000 Sepoys. Less than 15,000 Europeans
in Bengal will have successfully put down these
deeply organised mutinies-, -although with more
courage and determination on the part of the muti-
neers, and less energy and decision on ours, all
Bengal might now be in the hand of the native
army and the disaffected population. If such a
fere° should accomplish this in the face of such
difficulties, how comparatively easy will it be for us
to bold Bengal when none of these elements of
weakness and disaffection exist ? The remedy is
simple and should be promptly applied.
" 1. D sttand every regiment of the Bengal army
that d;d not manifest in the late mutiny strong
feelings of loyalty.
"2. Cease recruiting in the remaining regiments
of the line.
"3. Increase your Irregulars from the Ghoorkas,
Sikhs, arid Beleoches.
"4. In addition to the 14,000 men now being
despatched to India let your China force follow on

would thus be reduced from upwards of 300,000
men to 160 000 ; they would be maiutained at re-

and trustworthy than your present force, and on
the completion or part completion of your system
of railways you could detach from India to Eu-
rope on the occasion of host'lities, a seasoned, erac-
tical, and efficient army of from 30,000 to 40,000
men, to be replaced by recruits from this side,.
instead of recruiting, as in the case of the Crimea,
for the scene of action with such hazardous and
doubtful results. The reserve force in India would
be nearly as available for continental warfare as
troops in this country ; you would be enabled to
reduce your force and camps here, and economy
and efficiency to India and this country would be
secured.'
