§ MR. CARDWELL; Sir, I beg to give notice that on Thursday night I shall move a Resolution in the following terms:
That this House, whilst in its present state of information, abstains from expressing any opinion on the policy of any Proclamation which may have been issued by the Governor General of India in relation to Oude, has seen with regret and serious apprehension that Her Majesty's Government have addressed to the Governor General through the Secret Committee of the Court of Directors, and have published a Despatch condemning in strong terms the conduct of the Governor General, and is of opinion that such a course on the part of the Government must tend in the present circumstances of India to produce the most prejudicial effect by weakening the authority of the Governor General, and encouraging the further resistance of those who are in arms against us.
