INDIA.

ADDRESS of the BRITISH INEIABITANTS of CAI,

CUTTA to the late Mr. ADAM.

WP have received by the Asia, recently arrived
'ram Calcutta, an Address lo the late Mr. A DAM,
frog► the British inhabitants of that Presidency.

The .testimony which this paper bears to the
private and public excellence of that lamented
person induces us to present it to our Readers, to
whom we are sure► it will be highly acceptable ;
and it is couched in such terms, and signed by so
many and such respectable individuals, that it
cannot fail to be gratifying in the highest degree
to the friends and relatives of the distinguished
individual to whom -it was addressed :

TO JOHN ADA 31, ESQUIRE, &c. &c.
tint--Under the influence of the same feelings which induced
us, on the late occasion of your retirement from the high office
ofClorernor-Gencral of the British possessions in India, to tes-
tify our sense of the principles which had directed your conduct
in the administration of its duties, we consider it to be equally

incumbent on us at the present time, when the relation whit
then connected you with the Government of India no longer
exists, and when every personal consideration of hope or tear
has therefore ceased to operate, to renew the expression of our
unaltered sentiments of cordial esteem and approbation.
At a moment when in unison with the general feelings of
the Indian community we were indulging the anxious hope of
seeing you resume, together with the blessingof invigorated
health, the discharge of those functions in the Supreme Coun-
cil of the Empire, which you have so long exercised with dis-
tinguished honour to yourself, and with eminent advantage to
the public Interest, we lament to find ourselves called upon to
perform the duty of addressing you, not in the language of ex-
ultation which the realization of that hope would have inspired,
but with expressions commemorative no less of our private
grief at the still impaired condition of your health, than of our
public sorrow at the necessity which deprives us, under circum-
stances of peculiar exigency, of tffe tuture benefits of those
vigorous and enlightened councils which have so long contri-
buted to the prosperity, the safety, and the glory of the State.
After a long course of honourable service, dunng which am-
ple opportunities have been afforded of appreciating the qua.
ties of your character; as they have been exemplified in the
various relations of public and private life, it will be gratifying
to you to receive from those amongst whom the largest portion
of that life has been ecinimmed, this deliberate and solemn re-
cord of their affectionate sentiments of respect, esteem, and
confidence, which the recollection of it has inspired.
In the intercourse of private life your deportment has been
characterized by a happy union of the amiable and endearing
qualities which constitute the charm of social existence, with
the possession of distinguished rank, and with the ascendancy
of superior intellectual attainments; while in the exercise of
the arduous duties belonging to the exalted public station
which you have been called upon to fill, you have exhibited, in
the elevation of your views, in the clear integrity of your prin-
ciples, in the wisdom and decision of your measures, and in
the sacrifice of every personal consideration to your sense of the
exigencies of public weal, a bright example of those great
and good qualities, which, as they are the tnam constituents of
public virtue; are also the most appropriate objects, of public
respect and honour.
Entertaining this opinion of your character, and animated
with these sentiments of" high respect and esteem for your pub-
lic and priiate virtues, it is with feelings of unfeigned sorrow
that we contemplate the necessity which has interrupted the
brilliant career of your exertions in the public service, and pre-
maturely withdrawn you from the bosom of a society which
by your talents, and instructed by
you have equally adorned
your example and while we cheriah the anxious hope that,
with the blessings of recruited health, you are destined to expe-
rience in the enjoyment of your native land, the full meti
sure of happiness which they are calculated to afford, we
venture at the same time to indulge a confident expectation,
that your eminent public services, in this remote but valuable
portion of the British Empire, will receive, in the approbation
of a discerning Sovereign and a grateful country, then just and
moat appropriate reward.

THE KING.

WINDSOR, JAN. 13.—The severity of the weather, during
the present week, has prevented his M AJE ST I" from enjoying
any out-door excursions. His Majesty devotes the greater part
of the day to public business in his study, and frequently dis-
patches messengers from. the Royal Lodge to London. His
Majesty dines at seven o'clock, and generally honours his suite
with his company.—A great number of workmen have been
discharged this week from the Castle, the present severe frosts
preventing them from continuing many of their operations.
