Readers do not all know that the first prinFiplel and
evidently the original design of Freemasonry, was,
and-is the acknowledgment and maintenance of the
inherent right of man to worship GOD according to
the dictates of his own conscience. Freemasonry is,
la fact, founded in universal benevolence. -

• When the salad of i glites(nasi is not shackled by
&Assignee on power, for by desire of plias, it is
calculated to strike the herd of sycophants with
amazement and apprehension ; and to inspire. the
philosophic with feelings of complacency and gratu-
lation. Such was the case last night in the speech of Mr.
WitizanEan. Ile hecominglysaid ke took shame to him-
self for his comparative ignorance upon India subjects.

His comprehensive 'family has only to look into
them, to understand them, and then we trust he will
hold the picture up to the eyes of the %%hole country.
It is a picture which flatters the Company and those
devoted to its affairs; but it is one from which we,like
the Member for Bedford, see our future ruin.—
Without Hanover, and without India, but with
an honest Ministry, .Britain,.. as a State, might
66 live the lease of nature ;" bat with either of
them about its neck, especially with the cum•
brous, though gaudy trappings of India, its
term of ordinary existence must be abridged. Lay:'
ing the trade open is- certainly a wholesome opera
tiod, like phlebotomy to a plethoric habit; but since.
reading Governor rtneunAa's Proclamation, We.
have decidedly wished we had only to do with the
commerce of India, nothing with its Sovereignty.—
We hope and trust, however, that the multifarious
consideratioes involved in this unwieldy concern
will be well weighed, ere they are decided on.
