Friday a very nomerous and respectable Court of Pena prietors was held at the India House, to take into cotek:detatim't Resolution of the Court of Directors, to twat tho , e loung men who had obtained civil and military appointments in Itlia, through corrupt and improper ageney. After the requisition for calling the Meeting had been read, Mr. Sanson rose and said, that no man could he more desirous than he was to put an end to the corrupt practices which had been discovered to prevail in several instances, as to the procur ing of these appoiutments; and the Directors, as a body were entitled to great credit for the disposition N hich they had sheen to do so. But he must disapprrtve of the measure of reveal, 'one of great harshne-s and severity to those young men, whose future prospects would be ruined by it, though they were limo coot, while the corrupt practice had been carried oa entirely by t:teir parents or guardians. lie wished, however, the resolution rif the Court of Direct.); s to be first read, before he submitted Batt}' motion to the Court, The Resolutions a ere then rend, and were to this effect :—That Court of Directors deem it neta!ssary to ucal those persons is ho hake procured such appoinfments by corrupt means, under a conviction that. severe examples are necessary to be made for preveo.ion of the practice in future : that in future it would Lie expedient, that any parent qr guardian, sending out his son in as official capacity, should give a bond in the sum of :OUCH. at trait, to be forfeited in case it should appear that the ap pointment ans obtained by corrupt mean , . The Resolution t 4(1 specified the names of those young men .a 11;) were to he re ; among which we noticed those of Edo ard James Scoith and Vry Magniac, Writers; besides several Cadets. a hose t:am,:•:. appeared ia the ;teport of the Committee of the floosie of t..ooonotts. (;rant (the Chairman) then said, that it fell to his lot skortl y assign the reasons ou w hill' the Court of Directors acted in adopting this Resolution. lie thong-lit it quite evident, that if the corrupt practice of purchahlg t hese:i ppoint mews was not itrorigly checked, and if a ready Ls i dinission into the service of the Company was to he obtained by such sordid the ho nourable spirit w !licit now actirred the Company's servants in the East must rapidly expire, and a spirit of di-graceful rapacit y would succeed, in order to iodemnicv thelAsulves for the intine which the purchase cost. Such a measure was also due to the dignity and credit of the Court of Directors, who, if they had not adopted the strongest means for suppressing the practice, would have been wanting to their own cnaracter. In the sear p 99, there was strong reason to suspect the existence of such pract ices, and accordingly the Directors passed a vote, declaring', that all convicted of it should forfeit their appointments, and he wcaled. This Resolution appeared in the Gazelle, and in the newspapers of the different capitals of the three kingdoms. It Was again ref:ewe:l in 1806 ; but as it was supposed that this Octenninat; on had 110 t been sufficiently promulgated between Coot period and 1791, the Directors had come to a resolution twat it should operate to the recal of those only who had ob t fined appointment: through a corrupt medium since 1806 l ii the late Inquiry heroic a Committee oF the House Of Com mons, it appeared that ast India Patronage had been mast grossly abused, and therefore, aryr full deliberation, the Court frail ea an unanimous resolution that strong measures should be v„lopted for its future prevention, though at the same time they most sincerely regretted the necessity which forced them to it, as it would bear so hard upon several' oung men, not through any fault oft heirs, but thrirugh the gro , ts misconduct or their parent,: or gnar &cls. Every thing !Lid h.q.') dime to stake th is exert ion of a ! ;to: rity as lenient ag pnssible ; and it was agreed, 'hut iu a cr' inst.o‘cc sdhere it did not appear Itiat the y ouag men were p. 1%, to the transaction theinsclve-, they might agaii, be restuied tie their fpriner eituation by the pat ronag't of individual pir,ctnr..;:vic A ls not by a grant of the Clow. it y.•a3 Said, Ih4 this trial was a great hardship ; hut to w hom waA this hardrhip to be i..opoted Not certainly to the Directors, w:,:r only put in force pt thetr own law, but to those parents or guardians .v ho mast have been aware of it, yet acted in defiance of it, exposed these young men to this severe punishment. Mr. Manson said, that notwithi,tanding chat had fallen from the lion. Chairman, he could help looking upon this order of recal as a measure of great harshness and severity, which could not benefit the character of the Directors, or of the East India Company, but the contrary.
