* SISMONDI ON INDIA.-MR. RICKARDS'S WORK.

ENGLAND, not long ago, possessed an influence over the destinies of the world, altogether disproportioned to the extent of her territory and population. Taking her place among the powers of the first rank in Europe, availing herself of fortunate circumstances, of her riches, the ability of her statesmen, and the energetic character communicated by free institutions to her people, she aspired to direct the policy of Europe, and exerted a sort of dictatorship over the coalitions formed against France. Betrayed, at length, by her ambition, and the facilities which her unbounded credit afforded, intoxicated by the brilliant part she had performed, and continually engaging in more gigantic enterprises, she was overcome by her own efforts, and supported, with difficulty, the burthen she had voluntarily assumed. The restoration of peace deprived her of the consideration she had acquired during the war; the monarchs, who had received her wages, disdained her councils, delighted in all that could humble or annoy her, and left her without hope of any durable alliance, except with her ancient enemy, France.

On several occasions, and more particularly on that of the recent war in the Levant, England has displayed the remnants of her former greatness and wealth; she has employed the language familiar to her in the time of her power, and vainly endeavoured to impose an illusion upon others, by which she was not herself

This paper is taken from the 'Révue Encyclopédique,' a work, on the merits of which, it were superfluous to expatiate. In the course of our endeavours to ameliorate the condition of our East Indian fellow-subjects, we have often been animated and encouraged by the approbation of M. de Sismondi. From the calumnies of the interested monopolists, who are perpetually seeking occasions to discredit our motives, we appeal with confidence to the coincidence of our principles with the views and opinions of this able and enlightened foreigner. He, at least, has no resentments to gratify, no injuries to avenge.
