Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from What Is to Be Done With the Bengal Army? What is to be done With The Bengal Army? What is to be done with the Bengal army how much longer are the Medo-Persian rules of an absurd routine to triumph over those of common sense, and official twaddle to be accepted in lieu of action? Are we yet for a season to continue blind to the uses of adversity, and acquiesce in a system which has brought our Indian empire to the verge of ruin? The wisdom of our ancestors held it as an axiom, that similia similihus curantur; and on this principle, certainly, we might entrust to official imbecility the task of repairing its own crimes and blunders. Loud is now the nations cry for vengeance on the mutinous and murderous Bengal army; and loudly do our officials re-echo this Carthago est delenda: it is not in deprecation of this vengeance that I raise my voice; it is to show the means by which this may best be obtained, and that in the clamour we may not lose sight of those culprits whose dishonesty, ignorance, and infatuation combined, have caused the demoralisation of that army, and with it unparalleled misery to so many thousands. By all means, destroy the mutineers; but as a necessary and happily an easy preliminary step, annihilate the wretched system which has just worked out its own inevitable results; and thus not only will the triumph of justice be complete, but the means will be afforded, through which alone we can hope for success, assured and final, in this struggle.
