EAST-INDIA HOUSE.

A Quarterly General Court of Proprietors wu held
yesterday, which was made special for the
th followingl
pi;‘4rectoresertoof thceonitdtehr
oafßroulyluitaiostn, of
grantinge tuor
Jas.
Wilkinson, Wilkinson, Esq. the sum of 75,000 stcca rupees. at
Ps.the current rupee, with interest, at 61. per cent.
Nei October, 1816, to the time when the same
Mould be paid ; also to confirm a Report of the Corn-
ranee of By-laws, recommending the alteration and
amendment of certain laws, and to consider a Reso..
lation of the Court of Directors of the 23d of June,
outing to Sir G. 11. Barlow, G.C.B. the sum of
1.3101. per annum. The Report of the Committee
sf By-laws was first read and confirmed.
The Resolution of the Court of Directors on the
!..bject of the grant to Sir G. Barlow was next read,
a:4a motion made that it be approved. This was
objected to by some Members, on.the ground of in-
formality. It was contended, that by one of the
Br-laws just then agreed to, no Resolution of a gift
cr pension above 1001. could be sent to the Commis-
sioners for the Affairs of India for approval, until it
had been agreed to at two Courts of Proprietors,
and until the documents or grounds on which it was
patted were laid before the Proprietors for inspec-
tion. This being also the opinion of the Learned
Counsel of the Court (Serjeant BOSANQUET) who was
present, and consulted upon it, the motion WAS, after
along and desultory conversation,, postponed, with
the understanding that, to avoid any further infor-
mality, the proceedings on it should begin de nopo.
STATUE TO THE LATE WARREN HASTINGS.
The CHAIRMAN informed the Court, that the Court
of Directors, taking into consideration the merits
and eminent services of the late Right Hon. Wan en
Hastings, had come to a Resolution on the subject,
stich they should hear read.
The Resolution was then read. It stated, that the
Court haying maturely considered the very distin-
guished services which the late Right Hon. Warren
&stings had rendered to the Company, in having
reserved their Indian possessions entire against the
encroachments of the Mahomedan, Mahratta, and
European Powers, had resolved, that his str lie
should be erected and placed in their Council-room,
at the expense of the Company.
The Ca Alam AN named the nut Quarterly Court,
,he discussion.
LOWNDES did not wish to see 'say favour
granted to one eminent man which should not be
Wetted on another equally deserving the gratitude
tithe Company. He alluded to the Marquis Wel-
Inky, us whom he would wish to see a similar bo-
som paid.
Mr. Loa-sots was supposed to have mistaken the
reposed honour, as intended for the Marquis of
Hastings, and I.ot to Warren Hastings; and, upon
tieing set right by a \leinbcr, he sat down amidst
tome laughter at the misconception.
GRANT TO MR. WILKINSON.
On the motion of the CHAIRMAN. the Court took
into consideration the Resolution of the Court of Di-
rectors of the 11th of July last, and after some dis-
cussion it was carried by a considerable majority.

COVIT OP ALDERMEN.—The LORD MAYOR made
atird fruitless attempt, yesterday, to hold a Court
of Aldermen, to consider, as was generally under-
' 250c1, his charge against Alderman WArrnmAx for
milder, anlike conduct. His Lordship was in his
Platt by live minutes before one o'clock, but after
Rig in indignant impatience for more than an
"04 he was obliged to break up the Meeting for
*ant of a sufficient number of Aldermen to form a
Catnt. An attempt to renew the complaint against
41r. Alderman WArrnmAx is, we understand, to be
trade at the Court to be held on Wednesday next,
llithaelmas Day; but his Lordship, it should seem,
bill have plenty of other business to attend to on
I!..at day.
