THE STATE OF EUROPE.
Ds.n On Own Correspondent

LoNDoN, TUESDAY, July ~, 1891.
Tie details of the mutiny in India are too Sc
noes not to create grave misgiviDgs in the En-
s6eh mind as to the much praised wisdom of the
East India Company's policy. There caunot be
my further doubt about the deep resentment OF the
native troops against their rulers. The mutny Of
he frst three regiments was more than local out
bsut brought about by local causes for, according
b the news, an the Bengal army is nov either in a
state of mutiDy at least 30 doubtful as to be ut
terly yalueless. Thirty thousand Sepoys have go
far, left the service Of the Company and since
Of the regiments have simply disbsnded it is to be
fsred that highway robberies aud partial outbreaks
msy continue for many months after the mutiny
shall have been quelled at Delhi. The whole mill
tary system Of the Company to be roinode!ed,
and it certainly most serious sign of the impOr-
lance attached by the Government to the news re-
eeived, that Sir Colin Campbell has been intrusfed
with the command in chet i'll India and ha. lett
without delay ut twenty -four hours notice for the
Peninsula. But it is not only the army Of natives
which is to be remOdeled, the policy of the Company
uust likewise be modified. India has hitherto been
regarded as fat farm of England, and the
Company in order TO mohopOize all the
profits, has discOuntensnced any attempt
Of Englishmen TO obtain landed property
BY the by are OF race at least as noble as the
AbgO-SaxOns themselves, and to establish AUgO-
Indian houses in India. All the riches of the Great
Eastern Empire have been reserved for the Com.
pany's servants, and few outsiders, more or less
connected with the Directors in Leadenhall street.
With such system Hindostan has always been
governed from one single point Of view-hOw to
yield the greatest possible dividends within the
shortest time. Investments which promised
hundredOld return after the lapse OF ten or twelve
years were disregarded for more modest but inI-
mediate profit, and the interest of the governed
millions was made Of no account whatever. But
now that the HndOos-trampled upon for century
and bearing all the humiliation Of lureis rule and all
the acknowledgement of the Company with unpara
leled meekness-have risen, and, by numbering
their masters, show Themselves to be men, tho
Company see clearly that they cannst trust the
Sepoys any longer; and accordingly not only the
native populations must be governed in future
what more Justly, but it is certain that, without
considerable infusion of European blood the lease of
India is not worth twenty years purchase. A new
era Of Indian administration must now begin, and
the mutny Of Meerut may be the dawn Of brighter
day for the Peninsula, just as the Canadian in

The Nespolitan iDsurrection is completely put
down, even in Calabria. Col. Pisacarne was taken
prisoner aud has been shot, in all probability Most
of the insurgents fell, bravey fighting for the lib

and the great plan Of Mazzini. not approved by HE
political friends, has completely failed. 1t has eX-

Italy, and it will take many years before any other
serious expedition can be organized. hope it will

live in the country, and not the eXes, who can de-

FOR popular rising Miss Jessie Merton Whire a
friend OF the italian cause, was arrested at Geuoa,
having refused to leave the country ut the bidding
of the Sandman police. She insists upon being

the interest naturally excited IN England TOR an
smiable English lady, that the calulnnies can be
disproved which now are invented by the MOnsrchl-

Paris journalists have spoken OF mines discovered
under suIre streets Of GenOa, OF MazZnl's orders
for pillaoe and arson, and other such stu but the
Sandman Minister has had to declare that no mines
whatever were discovered; and Miss Whites trial
will show that Mszzni may miscalculate the elect

clusiyey to the prerogatlyes OF established govern
menis aud regular armies, as seen at Brcscla and
Messina, and lately at Kertch and Greytown.
Opinions differ as to the discovered Italian con-
spiracy against Napoleon's life. Some say that the
story is got up for the benefit Of the Paris shop
Keepers, TO frighten them into Imperial loyalty,
while others believe in connection between the
Italian outbreak and the Partisan plot.
