Excerpt from From New York to Delhi: By Way of Rio De Janeiro, Australia and China The last five chapters in the book contain statistical and other ih formation, which would perhaps be most valuable, if perused before the description of the country itself. Since this work has been written, the East India Company has ceased to exist as a government. One of the Queen's ministers is now in name, as he has long been in fact, the supreme authority in Indian affairs. The very slight modifications introduced into the system of government by the new act is the best possible testimony to the excellence of the old organization, an excellence which can only be found in a system which is based solely upon the conclusions of common sense, and has grown up from the results of practical experience. The difficulties consequent upon the revolt still continue, but the war is now purely defensive on the part of the rebels, and their fate is certain unless they can find new allies among the native princes or feudal lords. The great heat of the present season, the small number of English tr00ps, and the superiority of the natives in rapid marching, all tend to delay the restoration of order; though they do not seem to strengthen the rebellion, which appears to possess neither unity nor organic vitality enough to Spread or become aggressive. Disturbances are now confined to a comparatively small extent of country, and do not afi'ect the peace and security of the peninsula at large.
