events, providentially placed in our hands, is it not reasonable, is it not necessary to conclude, that they were given to us, not merely that we might draw an annual profit from them, but that we might diffuse among their inhabitants, long sunk in darkness, vice, and misery, the benign light and influence of truth, and the blessings of well-ordered society? and that in prudently and sincerely endeavouring to answer these ends, we may not only hope for some measure of the same success which has usually attended all serious and rational attempts for the propagation of that pure and sublime religion which comes from God, but best secure the protection of his providential government, of which we now see such awful marks in the events of the world!" Could it, however, be supposed for an instant, that the opinion of a nation were to be preferred to the judgment of and favour of the Almighty, or even the empire itself might be retained upon any other principles than those which were in accordance with the declared will of the righteons Governor of the universe, it might justly be feared that we should subject ourselves to the rebuke which was once pronounced-" Behold ye despisers, and wonder and perish; for I work a work in your days-a work which ye shall in nowise believe, though a man declare it unto you." It is certain that this great work of emancipating the world from bondage like this will be accomplished, and if not by your instrumentality, still it must be effected; in order to which it will be as easy to the same Almighty hand which has placed England on her present pinnacle of power, to hurl her into the gulf of empires now only known to history, as it was to raise her from nothing to her present dignity. As was once said of another great national deliverance," Think not with thyself that thou shalt escape. For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then shall enlargement and deliverance arise from another place, but thou and thy father's house shall be destroyed." I trust, however, that both England and her greatest commercial company will better discern their day of visitation. After a few further observations, the honourable proprietor concluded by withdrawing his motion. The CHAIRMAN then called on Mr. Salomons, whose motion fell to the ground by his absence. A letter was read from Mr. George Thompson, stating that he was prevented attending on that day by severe illness, and requesting the postponement to the next court of the motions of which he had given notice. The Court then on the question adjourned. MILITARY SEMINARY, ADDISCOMBE. A public examination of the Gentlemen Cadets educated at the East-India Company's Military Seminary was held on Friday, the 12th inst., in the presence of the Chairman, J. W. Hogg, Esq., M.P.; the Deputy-Chairman, Henry St. George Tucker, Esq.; several members of the Hon. Court of Directors, and the following visitors, viz.:-The Earl of Ripon. Lord De Ros.

Charles Thornton Stewart. Capel Fothergill Adey. Richard Armstrong Roberts. Frederick Richard Maunsell. Arthur William Garnett. Fourteen for the Artillery, viz. Francis Constable Simons. William Hugh Jameson Henderson. Charles McWhirter Mercer. Roger John Mallock. in presenting which, the CHAIRMAN said,-Allow me to congratulate you, your family, and your friends, upon the honourable mention of your name in the report of the lieut.-governor of this institution. I beg also to congratulate the service on the addition of a member who has afforded such an earnest of future honour and distinction. It is my gratifying duty to present you, on behalf of the Directors of the East-India Company, with this sword, as a testimony of their approbation and regard. We present you with a sword as the fittest emblem of your profession. May continued peace long enable you to let it rest in its scabbard; and, if required to draw it in the service of your country, may you present it unsullied by aught that could stain its blade or your honour! Bear it home to your parents in token of your exemplary conduct while in this institution,-bear it with you to India to testify to your comrades the respect and regard of the authorities you serve; and believe me that in afterlife, amid the excitement of duty and the competition for fame, -amid the honours and distinctions which I hope await your career, your mind will still revert to this early trophy with pleasurable feelings, unweakened by time and unabated by age. Progress in the generous course you have so honourably commenced, and may a gracious Providence strengthen your efforts and guide your path. Richard Armstrong Roberts... 2nd Good Conduct. Roger John Mallock Charles Clarke Charles Edwin Allom ... ... Duncan Charles Home 2nd Hindustani, 1st Hindustani. Latin. Military Drawing. Second Class. Benjamin Martin Hutchinson Military Surveying. French. Military Drawing, Civil ditto. Latin. Third Class. The Public Examiner then proceeded to some propositions in Mechanics and Hydrostatics. In these subjects Messrs. Mercer, Cotes, and Roberts demonstrated the parallelogram of faces-the properties of the lever, &c. in a very superior manner; when the chairman expressed a wish, that as several of the visitors had to attend their Parliamentary duties, and would therefore be obliged to leave early, the examination should be somewhat abridged. The examination in the Fortification department commenced in the hall, and after the distribution of the prizes and the delivery of the chairman's admirable speech, the gentlemen cadets of the second class formed a barrel bridge across the cold stream, over which they passed a gun limbered up. They were afterwards themselves passed over in squads upon rafts. The chairman and visitors then proceeded to the field redoubt, in which was modelled in sand a front of the modern system, on a scale of half an inch to a foot, the latter part of the attack upon which was explained by Cadet Roberts, and several small mines were sprung, one with the voltaic battery. The company next proceeded to the sand modelling hall, in which the cadets are taught the art of fortification, through the medium of models made of moistened sand on different scales, as an auxiliary to theory and plan drawing. In this hall were the following works beautifully executed:-Two fronts of Choumara's system, on the scale of a quarter of an inch to a foot, explained by cadets Hyde and Adey. An elevated battery, on the scale of two inches to a foot, explained by cadets Brown and Garnett. A front of a modification of the modern system, proposed by Lieut. Cook R. N., on the scale of a quarter of an inch to a foot, explained by Cadet Mercer. A portion of a double sap, as proposed by Major Jebb, of the Royal Engineers, on the scale of two inches to a foot, explained by Cadet Macauley. A front of Vauban's third system, on the scale of a quarter of an inch to a foot, explained by Cadet C. Stewart. The fort of Tamatara in Madagascar, on the same scale, which last year resisted the combined attack of the French and English squadrons, explained by Cadet Maunsell. And lastly, a beautiful specimen of a strongly fortified Indian hill fort, on the same scale. The drawings in this department were of the usual good description. Military Drawing.-First Class.-Mr. Allom (prize), Mequenza (done ably with pen and ink); A. W. Gurnett, Guarda; W. C. Sankey, Corunna; C. M. M'W. Mercer, Guarda; H. Biden, Battle of St. Marcial; R.

Second Class Gentleman Cadet R. Sankey (prize), from a model of St. Helena; Hutchinson, drawings from parts of St. Helena, on a large scale, and ably executed: Alexander, Taragone; Gummell, St. Sebastian; Hayward, Pensicola; Gunrett, Talavera de la Reyna; Simons, Albu; MacDonald, Tortose; Law, Toulouse; Cook, Pamplona; Fuller, Vittoria; Day, Castulta; Quale, Sabugal; Watson, Pombal; Reid, Battle of Orthes. Landscape Department.-The works of the gentlemen cadets in this department, executed during the half year, are worthy of our best commendation. Many of them would stand out well in exhibitions of higher pretensions. The drawings by Gentleman Cadet J. Hyde, a large Waterfall, and a large drawing of the Wipiti Deer in a Forest Glade, had the first prize awarded. A View of Roslin Castle, by Gentleman Cadet A. W. Garnett, is a brilliant specimen of the power of water-colours, and beautifully true to nature. A large Sea-piece, by Gentleman Cadet C. Stewart; a Woody Dell, by Gentleman Cadet C. Allom; an Evening Scene on one of the English Lakes, by Gentleman Cadet R. Roberts; and many other large drawings, by Gentlemen Cadets W. H. Henderson, C. Cotes, M. Sankey, all of the first class, attracted much attention. Nor must we omit our particular notice of the various excellent drawings of landscape, animals, Fishermen on Sea-shore, and an elegant Pic-nic Party, by Gentleman Cadet R. H. Sankey, of the Second Class, for which he received the second prize. Gentleman Cadet B. Hutchinson, and many others of the Second Class, had also excellent specimens of talent. In the Lithographic Department, also, the drawings displayed were very good. At the close of the examination in the hall, the Chairman delivered the following admirable address to the Gentlemen Cadets : The CHAIRMAN addressed the young gentlemen as follows:It now becomes my pleasing duty to express, on behalf of my colleagues and myself, the satisfaction and pleasure with which we have witnessed this examination, and heard the report of the Lieut. Governor and Public Examiner. The numbers selected for the engineers and artillery do not always afford an accurate test of the merits and advancement of the cadets who have. passed. I believe I am correct in stating that, if the exigencies of the public service had demanded an increased number of officers duly qualified for the more scientific branches of their profession, that increased demand could have been satisfactorily met. I have equal, I would almost say greater, satisfaction in expressing my admiration of your steady, orderly, gentlemanly conduct and demeanour. (Cheers.) When I speak of your steady and orderly conduct, do not suppose that I would wish to debar you from those manly exercises and innocent recreations necessary alike to invigorate the mind and body. But I ask you, my young friends, and not in a spirit of austerity,--are not these exercises and recreations compatible with assiduous study, strict order, and respectful demeanour towards those in authority? (Cheers.) You must permit me, anxiously and earnestly, to impress on your young minds the necessity, now while in this institution, of encouraging and forming habits of order, selfcontrol, and discipline. Without them, all your talents and attainments will be vain,-unprofitable to yourselves, and useless to your country. Daring valour may mount the breach; successful science may excite wonder and admiration; brilliant acquirements may enable you to sparkle in society; but believe me, that without habits of order, discipline, and self-control, all combined, will fail to constitute the gentleman and the soldier. (Cheers.) Throughout this country, happily pre-eminent in the encouragement of education, there is not an institution better calculated to attain the objects it has in view than the one wherein you have the good fortune to be placed, presided over by an officer distinguished in that service for which you are destined, its studies directed by a public examiner remarkable alike for his military talents and scientific attainments, while every department is aided and guided by professors of the highest character and ability. (Cheers.) Thus much for the constitution of this seminary, and the advantages it affords; and now for a moment let us look to its practical results. I have carefully gone through the list of officers distinguished in the late campaign, and find that forty-six of the Company's officers who have been mentioned in the despatches as having been distinguished in the late battles on the Sutlej were Addiscombe cadets. (Cheers.) Of those, upwards of twenty have received brevet rank as lieutenant-colonels or majors, and six have been. decorated with the honour of the Bath. Several of those mentioned as having been honourably distinguished were, but a few years ago, like yourselves, students at this seminary. With these brilliant examples before you, encouraged by the interest taken in this institution, evinced by the presence of the noble lord whose duty it is to preside over Indian affairs, and by the presence of many officers who have rendered distinguished service to their country in Europe and in Asia; above all, encouraged by the presence of my friend on my left, who bears the illustrious name of Clive, a name that must thrill through your youthful breasts, and summon recollections of that man who won for his country an empire in the East, and for himself imperishable fame. (Cheers.) With these examples, and thus encouraged, let me entreat you to take advantage of the opportunity now afforded you to fit yourselves for the country and the profession for which you are destined. That destiny is a most glorious and enviable one; and I now beg, more particularly, to solicit the attention of those who are about to proceed to the discharge of their duties in India. However young you may be, you cannot fail to be impressed with the serious and important character of the duties you are about to undertake. You are not proceeding merely for the purpose of advancing your own prospects in life; you have a nobler object, and a higher duty is imposed upon you. You proceed to maintain the interests and character, and to support the honour and glory of your country. You proceed-and forget not your responsibility -to act your part as humble instruments, in fulfilment of those ends for which an unerring Providence has committed that mighty empire and its countless millions to British rule. (Cheers.) You will be called upon to command troops differing from you in colour, in language, and in religion; but identified. with you in courage, endurance of fatigue, discipline, and unshaken fidelity. Treat with considerate indulgence their prejudices; remember that these prejudices are interwoven with their social system, and are sanctified by their religious impressions. Acquire a knowledge of their language, without which you cannot conscientiously discharge your duty. Attend to their little wants and comforts, and seek their confidence, and you will be amply repaid by the gratitude and devoted attachment of such men as those who served under Nott and Pollock, and more recently achieved the unequalled glories of the campaign on the Sutlej. (Cheers.) You will proceed to India, I trust, with your minds duly impressed with a sense of religion. Remember your Creator in the days of your youth, and beware that the circumstances in which you may be placed withdraw you not from your habits of daily prayer, and the due observance of the Sabbath. (Cheers.) If your career was in this country, I should deem such an admonition unnecessary; but, about, as you are, to proceed to a heathen land, severed from your family and friends, do not regard my admonition as unkind or uncalled for. (Cheers.) In this country the heart must indeed be callous that can be insensible to, or regardless of, religious observances. But in India it is widely different. There the Sabbath is undistinguished from other days. No quiet, no absence of the usual worldly occupations, reminds you of that holy day of rest-no solemn toll invites you to your wonted church-the voice of that parent at whose knee you first lisped the prayer taught us by our Redeemer, no longer prompts you to your duty-the gentle and winning suggestions of a loved sister no longer guide your path -all around you is cheerless and devoid of sacred influences, and you must preserve within, by meditation and humble prayer, that spirit which alone can guide and direct you to your happiness here and hereafter. (Cheers.) Let me also warn you against the habits of idleness and listlessness, too apt to be engendered by the relaxing nature of the climate, and the more than ample leisure afforded you. I hope I need not impress upon your minds, that here you have merely laid the founda. tions of education, and that the structure must be reared and completed by yourselves. Bear in mind the progress made by the natives of India in every department of literature; and I need not press upon you the necessity of maintaining our preeminence in knowledge, if we are to maintain our pre-eminence in power. (Cheers.) In India every possible encouragement is held out to the public servants to render themselves fully competent to the discharge of their duties. There the fittest man is always selected for the performance of any duty, irrespective of all other considerations. In India no interest is required for advancement; there no politics jar or interfere, and thence the high character of our civil and military servants, which I refer to with the greatest pride. (Cheers.) If the duties and responsibilities you are about to undertake are onerous, let me add that you will be rewarded with a liberality unknown in any other department of the state. Your pay and allowances will be ample to supply all the necessaries, and I may add the usual luxuries, of an Indian life; and you will therefore have no excuse for incurring debt. As you regard your character and advancement in the service, and as you regard your country and your friends, that you may wish to revisit, let me warn you against incurring any debt, no matter how small the sum or how urgent the occasion. (Cheers.) It is fit you should know the feelings entertained both by the local and home authorities on this subject. I have no hesitation in telling you, and I believe I speak the opinion of my colleagues who surround me, that I should consider debt as disqualifying a man from being selected for any public employment in India. I hope I need not urge you to keep up constant intercourse with your family and friends; whenever you receive with indifference their letters, or feel indisposed to reply to them, rest assured your heart and feelings are not as they ought to be. The Indian service was formerly regarded as a kind of exile, but that is no longer the case. The facilities of communication are now so great, that service in India differs from that in our colonies only in the advantages and benefits that it affords; and I will venture to add my hope that the facilities and inducements afforded to our servants to re-visit their native land may soon be very considerably increased. (Cheers.) While officers in the service of the East-India Company enjoy many and great advantages peculiar to that service, they are not shut out from the rewards and distinctions conferred by their Sovereign; and I am happy to bear testimony to the very liberal view of the claims of Indian officers engaged in the late campaign, taken by the illustrious Duke at the head of the army, and whose unequalled career of glory was commenced in that country. Believe me, my young friends, that the observations I have addressed to you have not been made in the cold discharge of official duty; and I hope you do not regard them as having been urged in a spirit of harshness. It was my wish to press upon your attention the suggestions afforded by long experience, and to do so with the kindness of a friend and the solicitude of a parent. (Cheers.) Before resuming my seat, I must express in the warmest manner, on behalf of the Court of Directors, our strong and grateful sense of the services of the Lieut. - Governor, the Public Examiner, and the professors and officers attached to this institution. Their best reward is the consciousness of having done their duty, and the great success that has attended their exertions. Permit me to repeat the expression of my anxious wish for the health, happiness, and success of those who now leave this institution, and to renew my earnest entreaties that those who return will devote themselves to their studies with increased energy and perseverance; and, with the expression of these wishes and entreaties, I bid you all a kind farewell.

W. Webster, of the 16th Lancers, and Lieut. H. G. Colvill, of the 29th Foot; eighteen women and children accompanied the detachments. The above embarked at Calcutta, on board the Maidstone, on the 9th January; six men died on the passage. Very few of the above were compelled to go into hospital. The Stebonheith and Neptune, from Bombay, and the John Brewer, and Ebeneze arrived at Gravesend, on the 11th inst., with invalids from India. The first-named vessel left Bombay on the 4th February, with ninety-eight officers and men; the Neptune on the 30th January, with 140 men, women, and children, in charge of Capt. Stirling and Lieuts. Roberts, Robinson, and Hastings. The Ebeneze had 180, and the John Brewer 170 men. Many of the soldiers have received their discharge, being deemed unfit for service. OPEN TRADE WITH CHINA.--A letter from Hamburgh, of the 10th instant, states that the first two vessels which had ever traded with China from that port arrived, during the last week, from Canton. Each vessel brought a large cargo of tea, and the two cargoes had been sold entirely to the house of Hertford, Brothers, and Co., of that city, for the sum of 900,000 marks, or £68,000.-Times. THE COUNT BJORNSTJERNA.-His Exc. the Count Bjornstjerna arrived at Dover, June 10, from Ostend, by her Majesty's mail-packet the Garland. His Excellency is staying at Worthington and Birmingham's Royal Ship Hotel.-Ibid. FURTHER REMITTANCE FROM CALCUTTA.-The trustees of the Indian Relief Fund lately received a letter from Sir Lawrence Peel, enclosing a bill of exchange for £1,000, and stating that a further remittance might be expected from the more distant stations of Bengal. This makes a total of £6,000 from that presidency. From the city of Delhi £150 has been forwarded directly to Donegal. The Bank of Ireland, in the most generous manner, has cashed the Calcutta bills, without any deductions for discount, although they were drawn at six months.Dublin Evening Post. COMMUNICATION WITH INDIA VIA TRIESTE. According to the Augsburg Gazette, the number of passengers arriving by the East-India steamers at Suez, and embarking at Alexandria for Trieste, increases considerably at each journey, and the Austrian steamers being too small, are obliged to leave many travellers behind. The same journal adds that the French Government contemplated making important improvements in its line of packets between Alexandria and Marseilles, that the steamers would no longer call in at Malta, that the fares would be reduced, and the quarantine considerably diminished. On their side, the partisans of the Trieste road were not idle, and the Indian journals are full of articles favourable to that line.-Times. SIR HENRY, Lady, and Miss POTTINGER have arrived at Brighton from Paris. ADEN has been visited by a most severe storm, accompanied by thunder and lightning, injuring the town considerably, and doing damage to the crops. A few days after the storm, the cholera, occasioned by the effluvia generated by the filth remaining after the subsiding of the water, broke out in the quarter of the town inhabited by the Jews, and spread rapidly in all directions. Owing to the prompt exertions of Dr. Malcolmson, this great scourge of humanity has been partially subdued, and it is expected that when the hot south-west wind begins, it will entirely disappear. The troops were healthy. THE BISHOP OF CALCUTTA.-It has been officially announced that the Bishop of Calcutta will preach the anniversary sermon for the Ratcliffe Infirmary at the commemoration at Oxford. MR. WAGHORN left London for Aden via Trieste, on the 8th instant. MUSEUM OF THE EAST-INDIA COMPANY.-The number of visitors to the library and Museum on public days during the year 1845 was 19,032, shewing an increase in numbers on 1844 of 3,029, and on 1843 of 4,871. The maximum number on any one day during 1845, was on the 27th December, the number being 1,626, the minimum on the 20th December, the number being 160. The number of visitors during the present year up to Saturday last was 10,546. In our last we mentioned that a silver "palanquin" had been removed to the new room appropriated to the Museum at the India house. We now find that it is not a "palanquin" but a "howdak," or saddle for an elephant. This interesting relic was captured at Bhurtpore from the usurper Durgan Sal. Bengal Estab.-Capt.
