Accession of territory will not make it easier to discharge our already existing duties in the administration of justice, the prosecution of public works, and in many other ways. ' The safety of xDur rule is increased, not diminished, by the maintenance of native chiefs well afiected to us. Setting aside the weU-known services rendered by Sindhia and sub- sequently by the Maharajas of Eewah, Chirkdri and others, over the wide tract of Central India, where our authority is most broken in upon hj... native states, I venture to say that there is no man who remembers the condition of Upper India in 1857 and 1858 who is not thankful that, in the centre of the large and compact British province of Eohilkhand there remained the solitary little state of Edmpur still administered by its own Muhammadan prince ; and that on the borders of the Punjab and of the districts above Delhi, the Chief of Patiala and his kinsmen still retained their hereditary autho- rity unimpaired. ' In the time of which I speak these patches of native government served as breakwaters to the storm which would otherwise have swept over us in one great wave.
