MARQUIS WELLESLEY.

NUMBER XV.

SlR—Numerous account: having appeared in the
daily papers refpe&ing the mutiny at—Vellore, par-
ticularly a ,a ell written letter in Cobhet's Paper, from
a cavalry officer on the Madras eflablirnment ; I (hall
end: rvour t ) trace the origin' and progrefs of this
unfortunate bufinefc, which like a fiie whereof the
ernhe.s are not evingn;fhni, may loon break out
ag tin with additional force, and probably to an ex-
tent, at will be 'little expeded by Anglo Made Poll•

tijans.

ip,in of the rntitiny may jolly be afcribed to
the intemperate fneeches of many Members, both in
he Honfe of Commons, and at the India Houk,
c 'rnmencing in the year 183: ; horn which period
un .1 the ha twelve m 'nths, your Readers mutt re-
c..!leEt the many abominable at7ernpts that have been
made to throw on Marquis WELLISLEY the odium
of having committe,l, what the Speaker mita have
known to be, not only a falfehood, but alio without
a . pofible foundation for the flander attached to
the really wicked report, "of the atrocious,
and I,ul murder 'of :he late Nab ib of the Carnatic."
Iri refoea to the affair; of t!ie Carnatic, in fo far
as refpeets the greatly injured fubjea of there letters,
it may be fufficient IT all pupates of judgm::r.t, to
qu ,te the two fo:lowing evraets from his ewn
to the Secret Committee of the Court of D;reetors,
dat- d the 211 01ober, :
" It is a great fati.faEli-n :n have ultimately ac
c fhvd an ohjP6l, I rig and anxionfly cleared by
the Ho .ourable Company, and earnAly recom.
mencle I tsy tile Court of Directors to my fpecial at.
teutir n, v..hen I had the honour to receiv the charge

o. th. G ....ernment."
aiiiltance which Lord Clive Las derived
.m the zeal, talents, and knowledge of Mr. Webbe,
a.. 1 Lieutenant Colonel Clofe, cr,ntrinted in an el.-
~ • • .ei,ree, to the fuccefs of L-rditip's mea•
, the arrangement of affairs i. the Carnazie."
tt-r a perttfal of the voluminous papers laid he-
th Houfe of Commons relating to the fuccetlion
(.1 th, Nabob of Arcot, it may be prefumed, that my
Lord Powis is the perfon on whom the refponfibility
of the ;neat-tire reits as being immediately en the
lint, or the Ciart of Du-Lehrs—The Noble Marquis,
at tilt di;l-trice dive hundred miles, being fnlely
the ageni, is iir;Ong inflruscii:ins to the Madras
Government on the documents fubmittcd to his in.
fre,9inn as a vlitic 11 meafure, in conformity to the
recommendation of the Court of Dit....flors.
Tl.efe p2perc, with the fpeeches of Mr. Paul to
th- Eleaors of Weaminlcr, were fobfccuently tran-
flate . in 1.,11 t into the Perfian language, where,
with a few additions relating to MarquisWELLvsLEy
and my Lord Powi,, the partizans of the Ex Nabob
and of the Eons of the late Tippoo Sultaun, were in-
duced to believe that any attempt to overthrow the
fyltero eflablifh-d by Martinis WELLESLEY for B7itifh
Tim ia, would not only be approved, but fuppot ted
by t party in this country.
The nzxt progreitive flep was an addrefs of a
Judge of the Supreme Court at Madras to- the
Grand jury, wherein they were informed, that the
houfe of Bentinck was formerly noted lor fupporting
the liberties of the people, &c. &c. After this the
Proclamatio;is of the Government were torn down
from the gates where they were affixed, and force
perfons went fo far even as to offer a perfonal infult
to the Governor, Lord William Bentinck.
Ihe third caufe was the worfe than Machiavel-
lian fillem introduced of late into Britifh India,
in the orders tranfmitted from this country, to
cancel alliances made with the different Rajahs or
Chieftains during the adminiaration of Marquis
WELLESLEY, and t give them up as a peace offering
Hulkar, as the petitions and let:ers of the Rajah
of Jay Enaghar clearly demenfirate to have been,the
cafe, which In very far from having the fuppored
effea,'have induced Holker, in the early pAtitsf the,
