The discussions which must necessarily arise within
a few yenta on the measures to be adepted. °tithe ex-
piration Oche East India Company's Chatter may be

expected to be curled on with Much violence, both hi
' the friends of the Company, and the opponents of tl.e
present Government in India. Speculations are ',goat
' in the meanwhile upon the probable intentions of Minh-
ters upon-this question. It is affirmed by many, that
the whole sovereignty and privileges of the Company
will be resumed by his Majesty, and Erie trade and fief
settlement declared ; by some, that the monopoly ei
trade will be abolished, but • the administration will yeti
main in its present hands; but very.- few,,if any, we
found who believe that no change will take place.-.:
Several pamphlets have already been published on the
subjkt, among which we refer with pleasure to one re.
pieta with information on the present condition of the
country and its trade, and with temperate and mead
.rearming on the policy of Great Britain towards it: it
is entitledal View of the present state and futare prog.
pects of the Free Trade and Colonization of lava; and
• when u e c'onsi'der thit inch prospects. site not merely
those:of the Mother Country, but of a tributary popda.
tion of one hundred millions, this question %ill be ad,
misted to be subservient to none that affects this Empire
In the importance and magnitude of its resalts.—.
Upon these two points, viz. free trade with India, arid
free settleMent; or Colonixation in it by the Europeans,
we were told, during the three
'ears delsate..that• preceded the last renewal of the
Charter, and that by men whose opinions were entitled
to great weight—such. as Mr. Was tt were HAsrtacs, the
Ww.t.saLax, and Sir. THOMAS MUSH°, IhAs t
the trade :was'-wholly incapable of extension—that we
could furnish nothing new which the Random; wanted,
nor the HindoosprOdece •any thing-- new which Ire 4.
iinir ed.' We were told-tht►t,th, free settlement ofßritish
Merchants would drive the Hiudoos into rebellion, and,
what was. somewhat inconsistent with this...thas the
English would soon people India and exterminate the
gentle natives, or reduce them to Helots; and we were
assured that the Indians were quite enamoured with the
tetfeei system of the Company's Government. ,
• Atte the free trade, ere experience cf the last thirteen
yeah'. is a suffscient answer to the statements and pre.
diction of its opponents. In 1814, the list year of
he exclusion (after which the trade was thrown open
. mein .to China), the exports. from •Great Britain to
