FINANCIAL POSITION OF INDIA,

From ate statement of the Minister Lord
Stanley, the House of Commons, the Philadelphia
North american CLEANS some interesting particu-
lars relative to the inc and expenditures of the
English in India. The following are among the
most prominent:
In May. 1857, when the Instruction took Mace
the nnanclal year had just Closed and from the re,
turns appeared that the revenue for the mast
amounted to about $l66 6,0O0 while the exnenGi
ture ior the same period was Sl62 O53 900 leaving
dencency OF $3.50 oOO but this deficiency was ecca
Stored py an outlay OF $l,3I4 900 on public works
wnich yielded no return in a direct form 80 that
there mad IN reality been surplus OF revenue aid
the deficits of former years had become neutrsized
Such was the gratifying state OF the nsncss of M
ola Just before the instruction That te rrtbe cr;
H. ~, OF course deranged everything for the time
an income of $685. &C., and an expeDditnre Of
Sis3 $4,000 leaving a deficit OF 36 500 0CO To This
ia 70 auaeu tne waste OF military stores which
mouiu nave 70 De replaced, amounting to the vain
OF $4,000 making the deficit in ali IS 500 900. The
@ ioI tne present year will be still more unfa.
vofable 1t is estimated that the reyenue will he
sui more unfavorabe. 1t is estimated that rhe re-
enue VIII De 1879, OO0 and the Expenditure will
ding III. 10 leaving deficit of 6O.sS4 600. and sd
unk lnis 10 mat OF the previous year the amount
niioot up to the total l04 ,544, 600!
Aora stanley stated that the debt OF India (viz :,
.na' winch was borrowed by the late East India
O"inP""y LOT the Encouragement of their empire J
amounted 10 $3.50 ,5S0,000 of which $2S7 9SO, 600
wore raised 10 lndia-the rest In England. He did
NJ. propose 10 saddle England with this debt, but
70 let It remain on Indian securities entirely, and
10 auo 10 It the sum he now asked for. He pro-
poseo 10 raise money by the sale of such lands as
the indian government Tor more properly now, the
aoesn's0 could claim its own, and so to reate
aeiass OF persons among the natives who, owing
the tenure Of their lands to the British. would be
interested in maintaining their rule. He looked
forward to reduced expenditure as the means Of
ultimately releasing the government from indebt.
edness and did not propose that Parliament should
interfere with the system of taxation by which the
revenue should be raised, but that that should b.
left to the Indian government The noble lord
was rather sanguine about the future prosperity o.
India looking at the fact that It has been found
cessary to increase the European army there from
$4,000 to $4,000 men, and the native army from
$4,000 to pa 000-a total Ia crease Of 90 Oo0 tina,
there is debt Of $500 900 ,o0e, and deficiency o.
$4,000 900 in the revenue, and very general dis.
satisfaction with British rule amounting to ip.uh
ordination In some parts and in others to open re-.
