" Your Highness,—
" We have been highly gratified by the information, from
time to time transmitted to us by our Government, on the sub-
ject of your Highness's exemplary fulfilment of the duties of that
elevat,d situation in which it has pleased Providence to place you.
" A course of conduct so suitable to your Highness's exalted sta-
tion, and so well calculated to promote the prosperity of your do-
minions, and the happiness of your people, as that which you have
wisely and uniformly pursued, while it reflects the highest honour ox
your character, has imparted to our minds the feelings of unqualified
satisfaction and pleasure. The liberality, also, which you have die--
played in executing at your own cost various public works of great
utility, and which has so justly raised your reputation in the eyes of
the princes and people of India, givos you an additional claim to our
approSation, respect, and applause.
" ' Impressed with these sentiments, the Court of Directors of the
East India Company have unanimously resolved to transmit to you
a sword, which will be presented to you through the Government of

"'With sincere wishes for your health and prosperity, we subscribe

" Your Highness's most faithful friends,
" W. S. CLARKE, Chairman.
"J. R. CARNAC, Deputy.'

"And whereas, in 1836, certain enemies of his Highness the Raja
of Sattara did conspire to effect the ruin and dethronement of that
Prince, by preferring false charges against him to the Bombay
Government;
" And whereas, when these charges, and the evidence in support of
them, had been forwarded to the Court of Directors, and had been
considered by them, it was the decided opinion of that body that it
was not only a waste of time, but seriously detrimental to the cha-
racter of the Government, to carry on any further inquiry into the
matter;
" And whereas this opinion was communicated to the Government
of Bombay and the Government of India, in dispatches from the
Court of Directors, dated respectively the 13th June, 1838, and the
20th January, 1839 ;
" And whereas Sir James Rivett Carnac, on his appointment to
the office of Governor of Bombay, received no instructions from the
Court of Directors to dethrone, or otherwise to punish, the Raja of
Sattara, but, on the contrary, was empowered to suppress all fur-
ther inquiry into the charges that had been made against the Raja,
and to consign the matter to entire oblivion ;
" And whereas Sir James Carnac did, in a minute, recorded by
him on the 19th June, 1839, propose that the Resident of Sattara
should be instructed to assure his Highness of the desire of the Bri-
tish Government to maintain the relatious of amity with hint ; and
did further declare, That the British Government had nothing to
fear from the Raja, and could afford to act with generosity;
"And whereas Sir James Rivett Carnac did, at a personal inter-
view with the Raja, on the 23d August, 1839, inform his Highness
that three important violations of the Treaty had been proved against
him—
" Ist. Of the sth Article, in having, during a series of years, held
improper communications with the Goa authorities ;
" 2d. Of the same Article, in having held a clandestine intercourse
with Appa Sahib, the ex-Raja of Nagpoor ;
" 3d. Of having tampered with the native officers of the 23d Regi-
ment Native Infantry;
" And whereas Sir James Rivett Carnac, did, at a subsequent in-
terview, on the 27th August, peremptorily require the Raja to sign
certain articles, to which the following preamble was affixed, viz.:—
" Information having been received by the British Government
that your Highness, misled by evil advisers, had, in breach of the
Treaty which placed you on the throne, entered into communications
hostile to the British Government, an inquiry into these accusations
was considered indispensable. This inquiry has satisfied the British
Government that your Highness has exposed yourself to the sacrifice
of its alliance and protection. Nevertheless, moved by considerations
of clemency towards your Highness and your family, the British Go-
vernment has resolved entirely to overlook what has passed on the
following conditions, namely, &c. &c.;
" And whereas the Baja of Sattara did, at these interviews, de-
dare his entire and absolute innocence, and earnestly implore per-
mission to be heard in reply to the charges which his enemies had
brought against him, and in refutation of the evidence in support of
them ; and did al- o express his willingness to submit to any con-
ditions which did not require him to abandon his religion, or to ac-
knowledge, in violation of his conscience, that he had been the enemy
of the British Government ;
" And whereas, for the sole reason of having refused to sign the
articles and preamide submitted to him, he was, on the sth of Sep-
tember, 1839, and by the authority of Sir James Carnac, forcibly
taken a prisoner and dethroned, and a proclamation issued by the
Resident, declaring his brother, Appa Sahib (his bitter enemy), the
Rajah of Sattara ;
And whereas, by the 3d Geo. 111., chap. 52, sec. 43, it is enacted
that ' It shall not be lawful for the (I.)vernment of Bombay, &c., to
make or issue any order for commencing hostilities, or levying war,
or to negotiate or conclude any treaty with any Indian prince or
state (except in cases of sudden emergency or imminent danger,
when it shall appear dangerous to postpone such hostilities or
treaty), unless in pursuance of express orders from the Governor-
General in Council, or from the Secret Committee, by the au-
thority of the Board of Control ;'
" And whereas it is further enacted, in section 42 of the same Act,
that' It shall not be lawful for the Governor-General in Council,
without the express command and authority of the Court of Di-
rectors, or of the Secret Committee, by the authority of the Board of
Control, in any case (except where hostilities have actually been
commenced, or preparations actually made for the commencement of
hostilities, against the British nation in India), either to declare war
or commence hostilities, or enter into any treaty for making
war, &c.;'
Resolved—That the dethronement of his Highness Pertaub
Shear, the ex-Raja of Sattara, under the circumstances now set forth,
was a violation of the above statute, and was, therefore, an illegal
act."

! try seems a matter of considerable dubitation with the
political public. A dissolution of Parliament was the
I first thing that suggested itself to people's minds, as the
present House of Commons could hardly be expected to
furnish the Whigs with a working majority; but against
this measure it is urged that the most serious incon-
veniences to the public interest must necessarily follow
on a dissolution. The locking up, for so many weeks,
of the capital deposited by projected railway companies
is mentioned as one point deserving of careful considera-
tion; and another is, that many railway Bills, that were
not finished last session, must be brought forward de
novo in the new Parliament, instead of being taken up at
the stage in which they were left at the period of proro-
gation in August. This, it is argued, would not only be
a cruel infliction of expense upon the companies so situ-
ated, but a positive breach of faith with them on the part
of the Government and the House of COMMODE!. Then
there is the state of our relations with America. Ima-
gine Parliament dissolved when a hostile mesnige
from " his Excellency" Mr. Polk should arrive.
Whence are to come the sinews of war? In short, there
is embarrassment on all hands. Let the new Minister
continue the present Parliament, and in all human
probability he finds himself iu a minority; let him
dissolve it, and there is an equal probability that he will
be unable to " carry on the Queen's Government." But,
as his friend Sidney Smith said, " Lord John Russell
will undertake anything—the command of the Channel
fleet, the building of St. Paul's, or the operation for the
stone." It is not to be wondered at, therefore, that he
feels no hesitation in facing the perils of his present
position. It is so much the way of the world to forget
old friends, especially when they chance to have no good
things to give away, that people talk very little about
the members of the late Cabinet. This may, perhaps, be
owing in some sort to the habit of Sir Robert Peel, who
spoke often of himself and seldom of his colleagues; but
still he had colleagues, and men of "note and mark" in
THE MINISTERIAL CRISIS. many instances. Of these, we believe we may safely

was as much as the fastidious Whig could do to admit
the brilliant essaist and reviewer. The notnts homo of
more practical greatness will undoubtedly put his po-
pular sympathies to a more practical test. If the Whigs
condescend to use the opening which the people hare
given them. they must also condescend to follow its
leading. In a peculiar sense they are now the repre-
sentatives of the popular will. It is their boast to carry
out the Reform Bill. That Bill gave a political exist-
ence to the manufacturing masses. It gave to the busy
and populous north its just proportion in the State.
The reform of the Parliament involves a reform of the
Cabinet. The one is a fuaction of the other, and there
will be an endless collision till the man of the people is
admitted to the secret councils of the Sovereign as well
as to the public deliberations of the Legislature.
ADVERTISER.—A crisis has arrived ! the Minis-
terial plot works : as Talleyrand said, we have now
before us le commencement de la fin. What the termina-
tion will be, time alone will unfold ; but at present the
"great fact" of the resignation of Sir Robert Peel's Ca-
binet is now beyond doubt. In our impression of the
4th instant, we distinctly announced that, owing to the
difficulties with which Sir Robert Peel found himself
surrounded, he had threatened to resign. The opposi-
tion he has encountered from the Duke of Wellington
and the high Tory members in the Cabinet, to his
meditated blow against the corn•laws, and the utter
impossibility which existed of his being able to face the
Parliament and to do nothing, have rendered the neces-
cessity of his resignation overwhelming; and be and his
colleagues at present only hold the seals of office
till such time as their successors shall be appointed.
We have the satisfaction to state, that imme-
diately upon the resignation of the late Ministers,
her Majesty sent for Lord John Russell, who, after
having had an interview of an hour's duration
with Sir Robert Peel yesterday. at Whitehall, imme-
diately repaired to Osborne House. His Lordship had
an audience of her Majesty, and returned to town last
evening with full authority to form an Administration.
The leading mF mbers of the former Whig Cabinet have
already communicated with his Lordship, who is actively
engaged in the formation of his Cabinet. It is probable
that an address from his Lordship to his constituents of
the City of London, with a declaration of the principles
which are to guide his policy on the corn-laws, will ap-
pear forthwith. The excivrnent and speculation which
these important events created throughout the whole of
the metropolis yesterday, may be easily conjectured.
The rumour of a speedy, if not an immediate dissolu-
tion of Parliament, was very prevalent at all the West end
club-houses,-and the conference which took place between
Lord John Russ.-1l and Sir Robert Peel revived, with
more than its original force, the report vi hich we gave a
week ago, that a coalition Ministry, with the two Whig
and Tory chiefs at the head, would be formed. Indeed,
it is currently reported is the City that it is the inten-
tion of the Liberal party, in case of a dissolution of
Parliament, to solicit Sir R. Peel to stand as a candidate
for the City of London, by the side of the Noble Lord,
the present Member for the City, upon the broad prin-
ciples of free-trade and repeal of the corn-laws. In this
general dislocation of party s, it is almost impossible to
predict the future course of events. It is, however, more
than probable that the Tories, now that the disruption of
their Cabinet has taken place, will rally round some of
their leaders, and make the most strenuous defence of
the protection laws. The history of the world furnishes
no example of a greedy, selfish body of monopolists
quietly relinquishing the advantages which they have
gradually and silently usurped. But the blow is struck:
the corn-laws and the protection-laws are doomed and
must inevitably be placed upon a free and equal footing
bearing impartially upon all classes of the community
alike. It is impossible to overrate the importance of the
present crisis. Upon the firmness of the people
rests the future happiness and prosperity of unborn
millions. It will depend upon the number of personal
adherents of Sir Robert Peel who may follow his ex-
ample in the House of Commons, and join the ranks
of the Whigs, whether Lord John Russell will be able

"curry," and their wretched expedients to avert the
blow which is now falling upon their house, will be as
abortive as they are contemptible. A long vista of
happier days for the English labourer is opened to our
view. All that remains to be done by the people is to
persevere in their present course, and one of the greatest
monopolies which ever afflicted a country will be extin-
guished for ever.
