Book Description
Excerpt from Sir Charles Wood's Administration of Indian Affairs: From 1859 to 1866 As ft monument of his ability, industry, and judgment, Sir Charles Wood may fairly point to his six years' administration of India, during a period of transition and unexampled difficulty at home and abroad. He found everything in disorder, and had everything to reconstruct. He had to recast the whole judicial system of India-to create for her a paper enrrency-T-to superintend the remodelling of her taxation, and the reorganization of her finances. Ho had to dcvelope a railway system, and last, and most difficult of all, to carry through the herculean labour of amalgamating the Queen's armies. If it has been impossible to do justice to every individual, we believe that, upon the whole, the Indian army has been a gainer under the change. Where is the man possessed of that extent and variety of knowledge, that quickness, industry, and versatility, that acquaintance with matters financial, military, naval, judicial, and political, which will enable him to rule with a firm and unfaltering hand the mighty destinies of 150,000,000 of the human race ?-Times, Feb. 6, 1866. No tale in Hindoo mythology is more wonderful than the change which has been wrought in India within the last few years. The enchanters that have worked the spell have been peace, justice, and commerce. It may be added, that the system first fairly tried of governing India throngh a Secretary of State, directly and personally responsible to Parliament, has proved beyond expectation successful, -Edinburgh Review, July, 1864.
