It was on one of those enjoyable occasions that the news reached Raffles of the charges which had been preferred against him by General Gillespie at Calcutta. But although Raffles had so much on his mind, and though this came when and how it did, not a visitor could perceive the slightest alteration in hi smanner. He was the same cheerful, animated person that they always found him, and only seemed anxious how best to promote and encourage the amusement, and contribute to the happiness and enjo...yment, of all around him. It will remain to the lasting honour of Raffles that he wisely studied the past history, as well as the prevailing customs and condition of the people of Java, and framed all his plans of government as much for their benefit as for the good of the state. The view he was led to take, rightly or wrongly, was that the European occupation of the island, previous to the coming of the British, ap- peared only to have been exercised to invade and destroy the property of the natives of the country.
