Seven commis- sioners, chosen ostensibly by Parliament, but really by administra- tion, were to involve in the vortex of their authority the patronage and treasures of India! The right honourable mover had acknowledged himself to be a man of ambition, and it now appeared that he was prepared to sacrifice the King, the Parlia- ment, and the people at the shrine of his ambition! He desired to elevate his present connexions to a situation in which no political convulsions, and no variations of pow...er, might be able to destroy their importance, and terminate their ascendency. " On the other hand, Fox with astonishing eloquence and ability \ indicated the bill. " The arguments of his opponents, " he said, " might have been adopted with additional propriety by James the Second.
