REGENERATION OF THE HUMAN
RACE.

ADDRESS TO HER MAJESTY VICTORIA,
QUEEN. OF -THE. BRITISH ISLES AND En;
PIKE. By ROBERT OWEN.
MOST EXCELLENT, AMIABLE, AND BELOVED 50VEREIGN,

'Your memorialist, a man of seventy-three years of
age, with extensive experience in all the great depart-
ments' of human life, an old frieiad of your Majesty!s
much valued father, and one who has devoted his life to,
discover the removable causes of human evil, and the
permanent causes which will produce good to man
addresses your. Majesty on subjects more important, be-
yond all comparison, than have yet been brought before
the mind of any sovereign or people.
Your Majesty has been placed by natural events to
reign over an empire, made more powerful by a century
of -extraordinary discoveries and inventions, than the
world has yet known.
Theso discoveries and inventions have already created
new and scientific powers for the use of man, sufficient,
if understood, and wisely applied, to' ensure the per-
manent progressive happiness of his race; and these im-
provements are yet but' in their infancy, and are capable
of indefinite increase.

- But in consequence of these new powers having been
misdirected, there is now, among, the majority in your
Majesty's dominions, more ignorance, destitution, crime,
and severe suffering than exist in any other nation of
equal numbers—while, at the same time, there is more
wealth and more power in the minority than can be
found among the same number in any part of the world.
But these, evils are, from the same-chases, gradually ex-
tending through other countries, and the growing ex-
tremes of wealth and poverty are creating a conflict be-
tween the rich and poor, which renders a change in the
organisation of society, for the safety and prosperity
of all parties, now unavoidable. Hence the change be-
comes necessary through all the departments of life—
a change now required to open the flood-gates of pros-
perity to the advantage of all the nations of the world.
And the means have been discovered to effect this all-
important change gradually and with substantial perma-
nent benefit to rich and poor of every rank and condition,
and to revolutionise all nations without any of the evils
of former revolutions.

The position of Great Britain, as its empire now ex-
tends, with the amount of accumulated and accumulating
scientific power within it, gives the lead in this glorious
change, naturally to your Majesty's Government, if
parties can be found with sufficient mind and .moral
courage, well and wisely to direet it.
The undoubted immediate human causes of good and
of removable evils are now known : the means of secur-
ing and making permanent the good, and of removing
for ever the evil have been discovered
,; all nations feel
the necessity for, and desire this change ; but especially,
is the necessity now felt by your Majesty's subjects, from
the effects produced throughout the British empire by
the extensive introduction of scientific power mis-
4irected. And this change, from all that is evil to all
that is good, may now be accomplished with order, in
peace, and most beneficially for all within the empire.
But should the Government be so unwise as to de-
cline to take the lead in this most necessary and most
desirable change, the glory of the British name and
power Fill.pass over to the continent of North America,
where the people are preparing to make this change,
and to enter upon a new course of existence,in which
scientific power and knowledge shall be made subser-
*eat to the population, instead of Continuing to make
the population subservient to this unreasoning and uttz
conscious power. It is true, that to accomplish this
change, the greatest of all human changes, the preju-
dices .derived: from the past ignorance of our inexpe-
rienced ancestors must be entirely abandoned in like
manner, as pivilised nations are now abandoning the old
r?ads for the new system of railway travelling.
But now to change from a complication of evils,
which are daily becoming more and more severe and
irrational; for a system beneficial to all, and which will
daily diminish the evils, will prove to be great foresight
and,profound wisdom. in., your Majesty's Government;.
because it will produCe permanent, individual, national,
and universal good. '
That which is now required is to know how to effect
this all-important change without alarming the ground-
less fears of the uninformed, and of those who will at
ficst imagine that their individual position and interest
will suffer from it. .

The means, if they4cre wisely applied, superabound
in; your Majesty's dominions, to accomplish this change
without permanent injury to, any party, but, with great
safety and lasting advantages of the highest order, to all
oft every rank and station; and to' delay now making
this change will daily become more and more dangerous.
For the people are intently engaged in learning the
great truths : _ _ _

1. That the world has been hitherto governed byforee
and fraud, and most unwisely for all parties.
2. That ignorance, the original sin of the world, is the
cause of all human misery'; and that this cause may be
now most beneficially "removed from every population,
with the certainty of a law of nature.
3. That it is now the interest of all that ignorance
should be universally removed.
4. That the means abound to remove poverty and all
fear of it from every British subject, in a short period,
and at no very distant day from the population of every
other country. It is either ignorance or injustice that
maintains.povertrin any part of the worlit
5. That all crime, which is solely the effect of remov-
able ignorance, may be prevented at a far less cost than
it can be punished or, permitted to remain.
6. That the British Government possesses now, by
the addition made to its scientific productive power, more
than ample means, wisely applied, to remove ignorance,
poierty, and crime, from your Majesty's dominions.
7. That this effect can be produced only by a re-
organisation of society on principles in accordance with
the well-ascertained laws of nature.

- - -
8. That this re-organisation may be gradually so in-
troduced that it shall, produce benefit through every step
of its progress, without creating evil to any one.
9. That this re-organization will, of necessity, change
all the inferior external, circumstances of man's creation'
for superior. ; and man is by nature the creature of the
inferior and superior circumstances by which he is sur-
rounded..
10. That with these superabundant means to remove,
without injury to any, one, the present crying adversity
of the population, which endangers the existence of the'
present 'Government, and to establish permanent in-
creasing prosperity, beneficial for all, it will be far
worse than folly in the Government, and people longer
to permit the present disorder of public and private
affairs to continue., . •
= 11. That the change by a common-sense union of the
Government and people; under a wise application of the
capital of the country, may be now gradually effected
with ease and incalculable advantage to both Goyern-
ment and people.
12. That the writer 'of this address, regardleas of the
deeply-rooted prejudices 'produced by errors of class,
sect, party, country, and colour, ,has devoted a long
life to secure this great change for the human race ;
that he has been most desirous to prepare the means
to commence this all-glorious and important change in
his native country, previous to the.adoption of Measures
to extend it benefits to all other countries ; but as he is
now about to enter upon his 74th year, and the continu-
ance of his life is therefore very uncertain, he presenti
this address to ' your Majesty, to ascertain whether the
British Government is yet prepared for this peaceable
change, and whether it will now afford him the means,
easily to be obtained, to carry it quietly and gradually
into execution, for the permanent advantage and high
benefit of all ; or whether, as was the fate of Columbus,
he must take his discovery of a new mental,' moral, arid
ll'eaCtical world, into that new physical 'world that Co-
lumbus was madeto feel conscious existed, which did
exist, and which it is not now improbable may be des-
tined to be the immediate means to re-organise 'and'
rationalise the old disorganised and irrational world.
13. That these greatfacts far more deserve the calm
investigations and deep consideration of British states-
men and of the Government, than the, petty measures
which have so long engaged. and which now engage the
attention of the Imperial Parliament, and thus termi-
nate for ever, the •childish party contentions about taxes
on corn, or any other taxes—about ten hours daily
toil and labour, or any other period of labour—about
repeal of the Irish, or any other union—or, about the
ignorant prejudices, forced into the mind in childhood,'
of any class, or sect, or party, all of which prejudices, it
has been discovered, have ''emanated from imaginary
fundamental notions of our most ignorant and inexperi-
enced ancestors, notions now demonstrated to be opposed
to nature's unchanging laws, and therefore most injuri-
ous to humanity.
14. That the excitement now existing, owing to the
present anomalous and most inconsistent condition of
society, calls for immediate inquiry into its cause ; that
that being discovered, an effective permanent remedy
may be applied, and that your Majesty's reign may be
secured in pease, and made the era of the commencement
of a rational and happy existence for the human race.
15. That the time for the present maintenance of ig-
norance, poverty, and division of feeling and interest, is
rapidly passing, and cannot much longer be continued
without violence—while violence will be now most inju-
rious to all.

Your memorialist therefore prays that your Majesty
will direct this subject to be fully investigated by men of
superior mind, high moral courage and extensive ex-
perience, none others being competent to the task; or
by such other better means as may appear to your
Majesty's Government to accomplish the great object
of human redemption from unnecessary Ignorance,
poverty, and division—evils which are the bane of hap-
pinFssto the human race.

And your memorialist will for ever pray.

• SINDE.
We hate letters from Sinde to the 'loth April, and learn
that some disturbances had taken placein advance of Shikar,
poor.; that the Beloochees had tarried off some 1,100 head
of cattle from a place, name not given, some 50 miles to the
west, and had subsequently advanced to within six miles of
the town, and burnt a large village. Two troops of Captain
M'Kenzie's 6th irregulars-. had been sent of to Shikarpoor
-under Lieutenant and Adjutant Holmes. The dispatch of
Captain Forster's compan'y'of Bombay artillery' his already
been mentioned, and.the 9th Infantry were ordered to hold
themselves in readiness to march at the shortest notice. The
10th- are already there. The 64th had reached Sukkur Cu
the 9(h instant, and Col. Moseley had assumed the temporary
command of the station. Capt. Graham and his company of
artillery arrived at their destination on the 4th. Capt. Ger-,
rard, of the cornmissariat, reached on the Bth. The whole of
the surveyors in the: neighbourhood of Sukkur were to pro-
ceed to Hyderabad, and •ultimately to Kurrachee. General
Simpson was shortly expected in Upper Sinde. Her Majesty's
13th Light Infantry gave a grand entertainment on the an-
niversary of the victory of Jell'alabad. The 9th Infantry, if
not required at Shikarpoor, were-to march for Ferozepore en
the 15th instant ; the sick, convalescents, and heavy baggage
to proceed by water. The hospital returns show that every
man in the regiment had been at least twice in hospital, and
some much oftener. Of the eighteen officers who were pre-
sent at one time since the arrival of the corps in Sinde, there
are now seven., viz., one major, two captains, one lieutenant,
and three ensigns! Another letter that we have seen men-
tions that the number of plundering Beloochees was very
great; also that Sir Charles Napier was on his way up with
the declared purpose of taking a share in the coming war
with the Punjaub.—.6e/hi Carats, April 29.
CAUBUL.

We continue to receive regular correspondence from our
friends at Caubul, Jellalabad, and J'eshawur ; the latest which
have 'come to hind h'iing the news of Caubul down to the
20th of March. Dost Mahomed Khan continua-, at Caubul,
busy in his usual occupation of extorting money, wherever
he thinks he shall be successful in obtaining it. -He is.also
feinforcing, as frequently as his means will allow of, the army
of Mahomed Akbar Khan, and has certainly succeeded to
a considerable extent, in consolidating his rule over a very
large portion of the former Dooranee kingdom, further, per-
haps, than it ever extended before our invasion of Caubul.
Mahommed Akbar Khan is still engaged in his operations
in the hill districts north of Jellalabad, and has gained a very
decisive battle against the tribe of Othman Khel, a fierce and
warlike people inhabiting the hills east of Bajour. He is
bent on proceeding further north, and all appearances tend'
to prove that, having subjugated the Sikh dependencies of
Dher, he will follow the course of the river. Punjkora, and
passing through the district of Lower Swat, immediately
north of Peshawur, enter on the territory of that province
by way. of Hushtnugger. The advance of his brother, Ma-
homedAleein Khan, with a considerable' body of troops to
within a short distance of Kohat, on the• South of Peshawur,
strongly corroborates this view, and we.may safely surmise
that he will remain there until Mahomed Akbar Khan is in
a position fa co-operate with him from the north. The Go-
vernor of Peshawur had begun to be seriously alarmed, and
sent it first written remonstrances' to -Akbar Khan against
his mar-oiling to Dher, threatening that such a proceeding,
would be considered as an act of hostility.against the Sikh
Gov-Cm:merit. As Mahommed Akbar Khan • seems to have
paid little attention to these letters, Mahomed Rufeekh, the
Ctithul Vakeel At Peshawur, undertook -1,6 proceed to Bajour at
the suggestion ofPeer Mahonamed, who has to appearance done
all he could (though we may sanely conjecture his inclina-
tions lead to wishing his nephew's success) to restrain the
advance of Mahommed Akbar Khan.
• —THE PUNJA-UB: "

. Fresh tragedies have been enacted around Lahore, and the
most distinguished of the chiefs continue to embrue their
hands in each other's blood. Raja Heera
,Singh ,having in-
vited hia uncle,Rajah • Suchet Singh,"to Lahore, the invita-
tion
with a
but when
cum
very differentobject.in.view, repeated
fr decoTathe lined
Pbject.in :view, he hastened to' the capital, and
w
arrived on the 26th of March, very slenderly attended, and in
hopes of &being received with open arms by those a.t..:whose
sammons.he had left ld mountain held. The soldier's had
in the been over ; and the,hill chief; find-
ing that,he had been deceived, prepared to retire. He was
followed on the 27th by- his. nephew, at the head of the Royal
aimy, now 20,000 strong, and:overtaken with no more than
500 followers, in the hauaeof a Fuqueer. Terms were offered
and refused, and the gallant little band intimated their de-
termination-to fight to• the last. Having for some time de-
fended theinselve with their, long and deadly matchlocks,
they at last, as 'the artillery opened on them, sallied forth,
resolved to cut their 'way through the troops, or die in the
attempt. The-old- Rajah "Suchet 'Singh,, his minister Rae
Kesseeree Singh, and the Dewali Bheem Singh, were amongst
the first who fell ; Dewan Govermull was taken prisoner.
Ail the leaders having fallen, the folloWers were easily over-.
wine. ,Suchet Singh, brother of Dhyat Singh, who was mur-
,dered dUring the insurrection in which the Maharajah and so
many others perished, was one of the right-hand chiefs of ,
the Old Lion of Lahore. He is said to have been engaged
in tampering with our • sepoys during the late mutiny, and
170,0001. of treasury belonging to him is said to have been
discovered at 'Ferozepoie, whither it had been brought for
the purposes of subornation. Heera Singh has now cleared
away nearly all his rivals of note,.end could he but keep the
refractory troops in order, and manage to escape the assassin's
knife, may for some short time longer manage to keep him-
self in power ; not from the inherent stability., of his autho-
rity, but from want of a sufficiently powerful assailant to
overthrow it. There are, at' the same time, abundant ele-
ments of strife at work, and a fresh revolution and more
murders any day will surprise no one.
The Agra Uhbar, r,f April 20, contains the following ad-
ditional intelligence, dated Lahore, April 8 :
" Intelligence was received from Cashmere to the effect that
Sheikh Ghoolam Moohyoodeen, the Nazim of that place, had
sent one of his own people tp the fort at Moozuffurabad as a
Thannadar. The force stationed at the fort denied the new
Thannadar admittance and drove him away. Tfte Nazim a
second time, sent an Amil thither, to collect 'the revenue.
The Zemindars refused to pay up, and resisted the Arnil, who'
was therefore obliged to return. The ryots in the neighbour-
hoed-of Cashmere, on hearing of the death of Suchat Singh
and •of a disturbance among the Sikhs, declined discharing
their arrears of revenue. A petition was received from Gen.
Dlipkul Singh, of Huzarah, representing that Pavindah Khan
was encamped in a strong post beyond the Attock, whither
there was no access, but that every arrangement had been
made on this side of the river for his capture. Julia Pundit
remarked that Sirdar Heera Singh, in the life-time of Run-
jeet Singh, had exerted himself much to apprehend Pavindah
Khan, but always without success. On one occasion, how-
ever, the Khan had been overtaken by the floods, and had
lost a great quantity of his baggage in the very place where
he was now said to b&--it was probable, then, that a similar
calamity might again befit' him. Rajah Heera Singh re-
plied( that heswould take some other measures for the Khan's
capture. It was rumoured at Landle, that should Bhaee
WtiZeir Singh meet any interruptionon his visit to Umritsir,
there would certainly be fight between him and those who
opposed his progress."

selves; Ram Rao Phalkea, the-Minister appointed by the
British. Government, is daily becoming more and more un-
popitlar ; and is now suspected of having, with a view *of
benefitting by the interference which he knew would destroy
his adversaries, fomented the dissensions which occasioned
our advance. It is doubtful how long matters may continue
in such a state as to permit our Resident to remain : though
an able and, determined man, his influence with the Court
soems 'to be anything but unbounded. A sudden popular
outburst seems very likely to upset the Regency we have
appointed, and so compel us to interfere afresh,, and to a still
greater extent than we have already done.
BUNDELKUND.
' We are happy to learn that five of the principal Thakoors,
who threw off their allegiance to the British Government -
immediately after the affair at Narhut in 1842, have surren-
dered. Their names are Puncham Singh, Guneshjoe of Gone,
DukulAllgh, and Durlou Sirigh, also of Gona, in the Saugor
district{. and Bahadur Singh, the Thakoor of a village, the
name of which is unknown to us.
These Boondela petty chiefs gave themselves up to Capt.
Clem Brown, the able Deputy Commissioner at Saugor, on
the 'condition that their lives be spared.
The ix .Raja of Jeftpore, the only rebel of and note now
at large, wearied with leading the life of a vagabond, has
lately made `several .overtures with a view to giving himself
up to our, authorities -on the frontier. We are not aware,
however, if, any terms will ,be granted. Although formerly
'eulogised in the Delhi Gazette, as a man of great influence
and character, he is a wretched imbecile, and, as such, a con-
venient tool in the hands of every petty robber in the Jeit-
pore country. On that account alone, it might be expected
to spare his life, and grant him a mere pittance to enable
him to live. Verhaps the officer, who has, or will have,
control over the conduct of. the Mysore Princes, and the ill-
treated Arneers of Sinde, will not refuse to add his lion to the
charge; or, if this arrangement is objectionable, our brother
of Delhi may tender his services:—Agra Uhbar, March 23.
DISBANDMENT OF THE 34'm REontENT.---The 34th N.I.
were disbanded at Meerut on the 26th ult. We are indebted
to a correspondent for the annexed account of the proceed-
ings ,
" Meerut, March 27:
" You may like to know that the 34th N.I. was disbanded
yesterday morning. The troops of the station Were paraded,
forming three sides of a square. After the order had been
read, the 34th was marched into the square; the order was
then read to them; when they piled their arms, stripped off
their accoutrements and jackets, and after receiving their
arrears of pay were marched round the square, and then
esoorted to the boundary of the cantonment on' the Gur-
mucktesir side, by a troop of the 10th Native Cavalry. They
went off very quietly. It has got abroad that the principal
instigators of the mutiny were two pay havildars, to whom
several of the men were considerably in debt, and fearful of
the men dying before they were repaid, they persuaded the
whole regiment, and bound them down by a most sacred oath,
not to go to Sinde. The subadar, or the havildar major, is
said to have administered the oath."—Htrharu, 'April 4.
