THE BRITISH IN INDIA.

From The desponding tone OF The English jour
mails, and the details OF The late battle itself,
we may naturally look for cruel and bloody
war in the Punjaub. The seat OF the late balle
is said 10 be the old battlefield between Alexan-
der the Great and PoIus-and The possessors OF
the Pupjaub. valiant race Of mounaineers, in
heril the indomilable spirit OF their ancestors,
whu fought against The famous Macedonian
They are, more over, banded together and excl
ted to desperate resistance by religious zeal.
Sir Charles Napier may redeem the mistakes OF
his predecessor, Hough-bul The struggle will be
fierce and bloody; and though the mighty pbalan1
of the British may drive their enemies into their
mountain retreats, III al enclose the head waters Of
The Indus, they may there DEFY the attacks Of their
Saxon invaders. Without specializing at all
upon The moral aspect Of affairs in the Pun.
jaub, we cannot but refer to the singular parallel
between the Indian war and our own Mexican
war, in military point Of view. twill be re-
membered that defensive line" policy was
warmly urged upon The late Administration
that our army should be Withdrawn 10 line, 10
be permanently defended. This policy was
vigorously resisted by the Administration, on The
ground that il would be immensely expensive,

and would surely prolong the war. The result
proved ,riumphanly the wisdom OF The vigorous
policy OF the Administration.
The same question has sprung up 10 England
Some OF he,Brilish journals and statesmen urge
the propriety of abandoning The Sikh territory,
and assuming a defensive line on the acknow-
lodged frontier OF the East India Company's
possessions. But Sir Charles Napier, The new
General, shows that such policy would be
disgraceiul and fatal retreat. He is soldier Of
great military talent, and sells forth some oil his
reasons strongly as follow:
I'll we abandon the Punjaub and retire to the
LETT bank OF the Suilej, We must there make our
stand 10 defend fron.lrl Of some 600 miles, from
Scnde TO Simla, divided from the hostile and
powerful Sikh nation by river everywhere

guar armies. Let military men say what army

but border war against The British alone, our

guerilla war. An army OF go 600 men could moi
do il. Even il such an army could do It, thai
army would become an unsupporable drain upon
The finances OF The East India Company, and
would in few years be obliged 10 retire from The
Sulej 10 the Nerbudda and The Ganges. Gould
We halt lhere7 This question | will not pretend
10 answer but will say thai 10 occupy DELHI

Delhi with relirns standards would be another
A retreat upon Delhi would be the FIRST march
towards Calcutta, and The power OF Nepau
would come down like q mountain torrent upon
The flank OF our retiring columns; while the
Bombay and Madras troops which occupied the
line OF The Nerbudda, would have The Nizam OF
Hyderabad in the Ocean, with his II 600 600 OF
subjects, between that river and the capitals OF
the Two presdencies, without counting The nu

STATE RIGHTS.

When We have more ICON, We hope 10 have
the pleasure of laying before cur readers the mas
terly and conclusive opinions OF Chief Justice
fancy and Justice Daniel, he former in The Al
bany Argus, and the latter in the Examiner, dis
senting from The extraordinary decision OF bare
majority oflhe u S. Supreme Court against The
right OF Stale 10 impose lax upon oregn
Immigrants. Tha, decision is based upon the
most laltrdinous and dangerous construction OF
the Cons tuition and strikes fatal blow at The
sovereignty of The States. We arepleased TO see
,ha, the Attorney General OF the State Of NeS
York has recently published an opinion Of ma
lional imporance-ior it embraces proiec, by
which The recent decision OF the Supreme Cour /
against the validity of the tax on passengers ar
irving in The port Of New York from abroad, is
to be tso over" He lakes the ground thai
though the Slate may not lay direct lax upon
the emisranls ere they land, as soon as The mas.
Ter OF the vessel sets foot within the jurisdiction
OF our Stale laws, he and the consignees can be
made TO STATE the number, names, &c, OF his
passengers; and further, be compelled TO give a
WAN 'uoN Nv PoNoSHSSl plOuSul pUll ~
the vessel shall become tax upon the county or
Stale: which bond may be commuled by the pay
ment down OF so much per capita, if the State
and those representing The vessel agree.
Unless the decision be in some such way
evaded, New York, ii is estimated, will have tc
raise yearly full 10000 for The support, &c, o.
destitute and invalid emigrans. To remedy this
hardship in some degree, it is vitality important
thai The emigration itself should bear some por-
ton OF The heavy burlhen.
b. curious coincidence, The authorities OF
Pennsylvania, about the same time, hit upon
similar plan to evade the decision and do jus
lice 10 themselves and The sovereignty of their
State. The principle OF the decision leads 10 The
most monsuous and alarming consequences.
