Under these influences he increased the numbers and appointments of his disciplined sepoys, and gave M. Eaymond additional lands to msure their regular payment. Thus favoured and honoured, that French officer improved the discipline of his battalions, and strengthened himself by forming connections with the chief men of the court, and by intriguing against all such as leaned towards tho English interest. He took no care to conceal his hostility or the hopes he entertained of the future ; he int...ended to play over again, and on a wider stage, the part of M. Bussy, and to revive tho projects of M. Dupleix. The English, to a man, were to be expelled from the great peninsula of India, and the dominion of that country was to be wholly transferred to the French republic.
His battalions carried the tri-coloured flag, and the cap of liberty was engraved on the buttons of their clothing. Hia officers sang the Qa Ira and danced the Carmagnole in the gilded haUs of Hyderabad. He encouraged desertions from the sepoys in the English service, and, through the intrigues of his officers, who commanded the detachment of his corps which was stationed near the British frontier, a partial mutiny was excited in a battalion of sepoys on the Madras establishment, and two native commissioned officers, and a number of privates, deserted their colours and went over to the French party.
