Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. As this volume contains the genuine sentiments of a native of India on many matters connected with the Government of that country, it will, perhaps, be read with some interest at the present crisis. The Author is known to be one of the least bigoted disciples of Islam; yet his bias towards his own sect, and the leaders of it, is most evident. If any one is disposed to think that the English are beginning to be regarded otherwise than as aliens by the inhabitants of Hindustan, a perusal of this book will probably lead his convictions the other way. In short, we may take it for granted that there is scarce a Sipahi in our army, or other native of India, whose dislike of what Europeans deem progress does not equal that of the writer of this work. The majority are certainly much more opposed to it.
