Of the former the same paper holds tlrr

pleasure of hearing only the concluding
portion of the remarkable lecture, deliv
end by Kev Dr W Watkins Hicks, un
Friday evening last, on India
The title does not indicate the cbarac
ter ol the lecture. Instead of a dcscrip
lion of the country und the people, the
lecture was a graphic uccouul of the atroc
ities of tlm East India Company, and tlm
moustroua policy of tlie liriiisn Govern
inent toward tlie inhabitants of India
The conduct of British officials, and tlie
agents of the East India Company, (liter
ally carpet-baggers.) toward tlie natives,
of Calcutta were depicted in livid colors
and burning eloquence.
Tlie parallel instinctively drawn by the
audience, as the speaker would illustrute
hy hmnerou* allusions tn the condition ol
the South, and tlm "tender mercies'' of
the "best government the world ever
aiiw," elicited frequent demonstrations of
sympathy with the clearly defined though
veiled object of the lecture.
