[THE TIMES.]
[The Times, in its leading article, after detailing
die intelligencefrom the Manufacturing Districts, and
the measures taken in consequence by the Government,
has the following observations] :
There can be no second opinion on the propriety of
meeting the danger thus promptly. With respect to
the unfortunate weavers, they appear to feel the same
diversion of their misery from the infliction of irre-
mediable ruin _upon their employers, that individual
sufferers under the agony of hunger are described to
experience, from biting their own flesh off the bones :
but what avails it to tell a wretch, while he is perhaps
delirious through want of food, that the supply of
future-wants is cut off by his immediate rashness ?He
hears or sees nothing but the one wild purpose, which,
as in the case of every-day maniacs, possesses his
disordered brain. We cannot reason with poor crea-
tures under such a visitation, whether of inscrutable
Providence or of erring man : they must, be resisted
and overpowered,
sand by being restrained from fur-
ther aggressions upon their feflowsubjects, be saved
likewise from prolonging the mournful period of their
own wretchedness. -If we had not frequent examples
of the same nature, it would be almost inconceivable,
that extreme suffering should so pervert the intellec-
tual facultieS, a to force men into the apparently
deliberate adoption of measures the most directly
tending to aggravate the very evils which afflict them.
Yet, in times of alleged scarcity of corn, the multi-
tude have wreaked their first fury on the stores which
preserved it, and on the mills which prepared it for
their use. S.o, now, when the single hope of a market
for our manufactures is in their superior cheapness to
those of foteign countries, the unhappy beings utterly,
annihilate the very means and inStruments by which
alone the price.eati.hereduced, the market ,opened, and
the idle hands.reealled. into .profitable employment.—

and the existing, source of British influence and
power is irrecoverably dried up. But there' is a
remedy more potent and infalhble than reason in
this instance—food : relieve their hunger, and then
the poor will listen to argument, and become re-
claimable -from. error. There cannot be much doubt
as to the, fittest, course for the
.Government to take
upon the pieseieBCeasion. Where a bond fide fa-

[THE REPRESENTATIVE.]
It is not without interest to remark the manner in
which writers accustomed to indiscriminate censure of
all Government, whether at home or abroad, deal with
the course of public events. Let the elements inflict
misfortune, the Government is held responsible ; but,
on the contrary, let the progress of events be satisfac-
tory, respici fi
nem is their creed, and all gratulation is.
withheld. This view is particularly applicable .to the
war in which, we also say, .unfortunately (for every
war is a misfortune), the Government of India is en-
gaged with the Burmese Empire and with the Rajah
of Bhurtpore. The military operations which it be-
tame necessary to undertake against the latter were re-
presented as of most uncertain result, and as endanger-
ing the safety of our Northern Provinces, while the
Eastern were hazarded by the contest with the Bur-
mese. Now when it appears that no doubt is enter-
tained of the s'peedy capture of: Bhurtpore, probably
without any desperate and certainly unavailing resist-
ance, there is a total -absence, of remark; and while
the presence of the Conamander4n7Chief was cited as
prod of the magnitude of the danger, and therefore
as a just foundation for alarm, all commendation of
his personal activity and of his devotion to the public
service is, under the cessation of apprehension, sedu-
lously withheld. Let us now examine the fairness
with which the• late events of the Burmese war have
been considered. The surprise of a small detach-
ment was magnified into an extended and successful
movement in advance of the Burmese army ; while
the fact of a total defeat of the main body of the same
force, commanded by their hest and. most consum-
mate General, has been reluctantly admitted. It is
impossible not to deplore the loss of valuable lives
which has occurred- from the insalubrity of the
climate of 'Arraean ; 'but surely the necessity, and, we
will boldly add, the expediency of, the war, are not to
be determined by this visitation. 'of the atmosphere.
Has. it Over been maintained that: the unhealthiness of
the British West India Islands , would have justified
our abandoning those, possessions to other nations ?
Has it ever been contended that on the occurrence of
war we were not to attack the colonies of France, be-
cause the yellow .fever might thin the ranks of our
regiments ? Apply the same reasoning to the Burmese
war. Were we to have submitted to the positive ag-
gression of our barbarous neighbour, without seeking
redress ? Were we to have witnessed the imprison-
ment of an English merchant, and of our native sub-
jects, without attempting their' releaSe? If justice, if
the solemn obligations froth
,a,,goVerninent. to its sub-
jects, did not enjoin the assertion of our rights, surely
it would nothavel been consistent with sound policy
to have allowed-the fact to .go foith to all India,
that the. British power was not equal to the pro-
tection of the properties and lives of the natives of
Chittagong ; of that the liiirme.se, whether from their
military power, the unhealthiness. of their territory,
their skill in magic, the favour of Gaudma, or their
'possession of the white elephant, presented a combina-
tion of strength invincible by the disciplined legions of
Britain. Forbid it, honour I forbid it, wisdom ! We
are no advocates for either the extension of our terri-

tories, or of our influence in the East, and we do not
consider the conquest .;of Ameerapeonah;, or the dis-
memberment of the Burinese. Empire, indispensable to
the satisfaction of our national hotiOnr; or the security
of our dominions ; btit we have. always felt that the
barbarians required chastisement, and we cannot doubt
that even the evils already, inflicted uon them will
long secure our frontier from insult or depredation.
