      , kingB . The first step m the English trieadship with the t , atoTe . pnnee 8 , toB geperalif been to assist them against their neighbours witn troops , or to locate teoops-mth them , to protect 1 W from aggression . rorxne 8 e services such , enormous recompense was BtajralateaV for , thaV the unwary princes , entrapped by their fears of their natlTe foes , rather than of their pretended friends , * oon found that they were utterly unable to discharge them . Dreadful exaotiOtiS were made on their Buhjcctg , hut iu vain . Whole nrovinces , or the revenues of them , were soon obliged to be made over -ts > their grasping friends , Dut ^ hey did not suffice for their demands , la order to pay them their debts or their interest , the princes were obliged to borrow lajjee ' suma at an

      extravagant rate . These _ sums were : eagerly advanced > y the English in their private andinaiyidual capacities , and securities again taken on lands and revenue . At every Htep the niihappy princes became more and more embarrassed , aud -as the emDarrassaient increased , the elainw of the , Comtany became proponitnably pressing . To escape it there became no alternative but to throw ftemselvea entirely upon the mercy of their inexorable ^ creditors , or ro break out into armed resistance . In the one case they found themselves speedily stripped of every vestige of their power—their revenues anu management « f their territories given over to these creditors , which

      Will ijever were enough to liquidate their monstrous growing demands ; so that the i > ert proposition -was , that ihey should eniirel y cede their territories , and ^ become penaoners on their usurpers . In the other case , they were at once declared perfidious and swindling—no faith was to pe kept with them—^ they wereI assaulted by the irresistible arms of their oppressors , and inevitably deatroyed or deposed . If they goo ^ t aidfiwn another state , that became a fortunate plea to attack that state too ; and the English were not contented to chastise the state thus aiding its ancient neighoour ; it was deemed quite sufficient ground to seize and subjugate it also . — -Ej utiuh in India , .

      Polish Jews . ^ A few wo # ds . with regard to the Jews in Poland . From tne moment of crossing the borfer of Lithuania , I had remarked in every st § wn and village swarms of people differing epnrely from the other inhabitants ia phy--scal appearance and costume , and in whose sharplydrawn features , long beards , and flowiug'dresses , with the coal-black eyes and oriental costumes of the women , I at once recognised the dispersed and wandering children of Israel . On the seeond destruction of Jernsalem , when the Roman general drove , a plough over the site of the Temple of Solomon the political existence of the Jewish nation waa tuuohllated , tbeix land was portioned among strangers , and the descendants of Abraham were for .

      bidden to pollute with their presence the holy city of their fathers . In the Roman territories their petition for the reduction of taxation received the stern answer of the Roman , Ye demand exemption from tribute for your soil ; I will lay it on the air you breathe ; " and , in the words of the historian , "Dispersed and vagabond , exiled fronrtheir native soil and air . they wander over the fac « of the earth without a kins , either human or divine , and even as strangers they are not permitted to salute wish their footsteps their own native land . " . History furnishes no precise records of the emigration or of the first settlement of the Israelites in the different countries of Europe ; but for centnries they have beenfbund dispersed , as it was foretold they would

      be , over the whole , habitable world , a strange , unsocial , isolated people , a living and continued miracle . At this day they are found m all the civilised countries of Europe and America , in the wildest regions of Asia and Africa , and even within the walls of China ; but , after Palestine , Poland is regarded as their , land of promise ; and there they present a more extraordinary , spectacle than in any country where the race is known . Centuries have rolled on , revolutions have convulsed the globe , new and strange opinions lave disturbed the Tinman race , but the Polish Jew remains unchanged ; the same as the dark superstition of the middle ages made them ; the same in his outward appearance and internal dispositions , in his physical and moral

      condition , as when he fled thither for refuge from the swords of the crusaders . —Travel * in Russia and Turkey . - * BccKiKGHA 3 t Chjlpki , situated ^ nPalace-street , about three minutes' walk from Buckingham Palace . There are two vaults and a burying ground belonging to this Chapel ; one of the vaults ia underneath very large school room * for boyt and girlt , and the Other is vnderneaih the chavel ; the entrance to these vaults is through a trap-door , in the passage , dividing the school rooms from the chapel ; steps lead to the bottom of the bnilding ; on the right is the vault underneath the Bchools . * * The vault is supported on wooden pillars , and there is only one ^ ratmgi which fronts the street , to admit light and air ; the floors of the school rooms , whitewashed on the under surface , form the roof of the ceiling of the vault—it Is no difficult matter to see the children in the lower Bchool room from IMb vault , as there

      are aperture * in the board * sufficiently large to admit the light from above . This place is spacious , but very low ; the vault on the left , under the chapel , is about the same size as that under the schools , though much lower . I was assured that the ground was so full of bodies , that there was difficulty in allotting a grave ; the roof of this vault informed by the under surface of the floor of the chapel ; it is whitewashed , the lidit passes throngh it ; the smell emitted from this place ia Tery offensive . In the vanlt underneath the chapel there are piles of bodies placed in lead ; the npperones are within a few incheB of the wooden floor . On a level with the chapel , and behind it and the school rooms , is the burial ground , which is much crowded— -most of % e graves being full seven feet deep , and nearly filled to the surface , . with the dead ; the ground is raised more than six feet from the original level—formed only by the debris of mortality . No funerals are permitted on a Sunday . " —Cfotherings from Grave-ymrd * .

      The Treatment of the Native Population op Ixdu . —TheBcene of exaction , rapacity , and plunder which India became in our hands , and that upon the whole body of the _ population , forms one of the most disgraceful portions of human history ; and while the temptations to it existed in fall force , defied all the powers of legislation , or the moral influence of public opinion , to check the eviL It was a soil made sacred , or rather , doomed , to the exclusive plunder of a privileged number . The highest officers in the government had the strongest motives to corruption , and therefore could by no possibility attempt io cheek the same corruption in those below them . When the power And influence of the company beoame considerably extended over Bengal , Bihar .

Nothing wae to be expected , no chance of Justice , of attention , of alleviation from the most abominable oppression , hat through the : medium of presents , and those of such amounts as fairl y astonish European ears . Everyman , in every department , whether dvil , military , or mercantile , was in the certain receipt of splendid presents . When the government had found it necessary to forbid the receipt of presents by any individual in the service , not only for themselves , bat for the Company , the highest officers set the laws at defiance , and the mischief was made more secret , but not less existent . —JEngRsh * ..
