Condition of Affairs in British Indla~ England Landing Wer Vagrauts and Outcasts On the Soil—Useful Rules Against the Importation—WiIl New York Copy the Order? By the latest mall from British India we learn from our files of the Calcutta Englishman that an amended European vagrancy bill was passed by the Council of the Governor General of India at Simla on the 17th September, Under the amended act Mr. Maine was of opinion that there would be a consid Grable tiamediate clearance of the vagrant class— @ class that hag hitherto been the terror of the natives and @ thorough nuisance to Ku- ropeans residents, The bulk of the measure, Mr. Maine stated, would not take effect til the govern- ment of India introduce it by notification. Certata Sections of the measure come ito force at once. ‘The most important is the following:— Any person of European extraction found asking for arias when he has sufficient means of sub- sistence, or asking for alms in a Lureatentog or inso- lent manner, or Continuing to ask ior alms of any person alter be has been required to desist, shall be unishable, whether he be or be not a European ritish subject, on conviction before a magistrate, with rigorous imprisonment for a term not exceed- ing one month for the first offence, two months for ee second and three months for any subsequent cy 108. The amended bill not only deals with existing vagrancy, but has some very eficieut provisions to prevent ‘the importation and increase of vagrancy in india, ‘The term Europeans has been made to and Austraiasians, and tho amended bill makes it a punishable offence in any master of a ship bringing to India a man once con- victed of felony. The amended bill, however, by what 1s termed an innovation on usage, permits the mnaster of a snip to give evidence himself, and if he salisiles the magistrate that he had made reasona- ble inquiry as to the persons he had taken on board le was not to be fined. Furcher, the govern- ment of India might exempt from the provie 8100 any class of sulps or any class of passengers. It might be unreasonable to require a shipmaster to ask a well dressed person who paid a full first class fare whether he nad committed a felony, Again, section 36 of the bill provided that persons, firms or companies who might import or land ser- Vanis ln we country would be liable to pay their passage home if they were Wischarged and became vagrants within one year after their arrival in the country, His Excellency the Commander-in-Chicf Was of opinion that the oneration of thi: tion waa too Limited and Gugnt to"be madd Brera hous. 01 2 Oficers and soldiers it ik jajesty’a army who might leave that army under an engage. ment to serve avy otier person, or any company, association or body of persons fa any capacity, an become chargeable to the State as vagrants within one yeay after their arrival in India, Such is the measure which Mr. Maine considers will do much to mitigate His Areas evil and danger o1 European vagrancy in India, although he adimit- ted it would not be as effectual as it would have been if the Indian Legisiature had obtained tio power of deportation, which was once hoped for. Mr. Cockerell was of opinion that the reasons held to justify any special legislation im the direction of the biit Would afford a suliicient justification of the more completo measure of compulsory deportation, “We had to deal with @ social and political evil of an excepitonai character, which could only be sate Isfactorily met by an exceptional remedy.” Mr. Cockerell was furilier of opiaion that If tue present Measures failed in achieving their desired object their failure would be a sufiiclent excuse for imme- diate resource to the stronger measure which he would have been prepared to adopt. Mr. Maine, however, pointed out the great, or, as he termed it, ‘sormidable’ difficulty —_ against resorting to ®& measure of deportation, England does not know how to deal with the num- bers of her own vagrants, Mr. Maine thinks this dificuity will be removed if the vagrant himself agrees'to be deported. Time alone will solve this question, ‘Vuere is a strong and general conviction, however, that vagrancy in India musi be put down, gently u possible, but with the strong hand if neces- Bary di dir, Maine’s bili does not effect the purpose more stringent measure will have to be adopted, oO and Progress of Indian Cyclones. The Calcutta Laglisikman of the 27th of September publishes the following remarks on the above im- portant and interesting subject:— We are glad to sec that Mr. H. F, Biaaford has published th a separate form nis “Remarks on the Origin of a Cyclone.’ The paper originally appeared lathe proceedings of the Royal Society, It relates vo the cyclone of ist November, 1867, Mr. Blantord has brought to bear on the question of the origin of this cyclone @ Vast mass of facts, which enables him to speak with great certainty. ‘The cyclone appears to have formed ta the south of the pecteragh inl somewhere between the Andamans and the Nico- bars, In the region designated by Piddington as that where these terrific storms have thetrorigin, For at least four days before the formation of a cyclong vortex there had been @ marked barometric depres- sion over an area described as an elongated ellipse or trough, stretching northward from the island of Sunatra along the western sides of the Nicoburs. Over thls area the barometric pressure was lower than elsewhere in and around the bay. There waa — achange in the winds, which 1s thus spoken of For many days previously to tho 24th light, southeas winds peevailed on the west coast of the bay, while in Beng the wind wes variable with a predominance of easterly com- ponents. ‘Yo the south, between the equstor and north latte tude five degrees, a squally damp west northwest wind blew continuously, having prevailed at least from the 11th of Octo- Ver. Ga the Lith it became west routhwest, drawing round towards the area of depression, With the barometric riag on e the 24th and 25th @ northeast wind sot in in Bongal and down tho Wostern half the bay, displacing the southaast wind, which, however, continusd to be felt ta the Ammedints nel borhood of the Ntoobars. ‘The cyctone vortex wad formed the Indranght of these three currents to the pre-oxlsting arem of barometric dopregsion. — * . oe It appears, :lion, that the same three wind currents avonta- took part In the formation of both storm3—viz.. @ soutue st wiurl fu (ue southeast of the bay, a northeast wind alon; ie west coast and a westerly wind to the soutlr; but that le in the storm of 1864 tho hortheast wind did not prevail unt! after the formation of the vortex, up to which time the sowthoust current held possession of the bay, in that of 1867 the former current had established itself three days prior to tua commencement of the cyclone, “These fucts, courted with the farther fact that neither the northeast aor (at this (imo of the year) the southeast currents are sormy winds able of feedirg the vortex and increasis lepression, tend to confirm the view ent: report on the Calcutta eyclone of 184—viz., thal Hon of the vortex was mainly determined by the inrush of « saturated westerly current towards the place of low barome- te ‘The birthnlace of these storms seems to bo along & line to the west and paraliet to the cham of islands Andamans, Nicobars, &c., which’ form the eastern boundary of the Bay of bengal. This constancy ta their locality of origin seems to point to some gene- ral couse which tends to produce in that region a low atmospheric pressure at those seasons when cyclones chiefly occur. It is well known that the set of the currents 1 the bay varies with the prevailing wind, and, looking to this fact, Mr. Blanford re- marks:—if it can be shown that elthor to a pre- domitiance of marine currents from the south or to any other cause the water along the eastern side of the bay has a higher temperature than that of the western sido during these months at which the cyclones prevail the increased evaporation thus arising, ether With the more elevated tempe- rature it would impart to the atmosphere, would give rise to a diminution of barometric pressure, small at first, bu’ becoming more marked with the continued Cairns of the producing cause, so that after several days it magus become capable of caug- ing that extensive indraught of alr which appears to be the immediate antecedent of the formation of a cyclone vortex.” The General Condition of India, Natives Political and Sanitary.
