-
Agrees that Canning's account of the fall of Herat by treachery rather than force is probably correct. News has come of the fall of Bushire; further comments on the war. Is anxious to hear the account of the interview between Lawrence and the Dost. Canning will see the notice taken by the public of Chamberlain's march. Returns thanks for opinions on Wigram's Bill on the amalgamation. The exchange has been altered again to prevent the influx of bills on India. China is an unpleasant business, not improved by Bowring. Canning was right to refuse him a European Regiment but he may have to send a native Regiment. Fears Canning will not approve of Outram's appointment. Jackson should be dismissed from Oudh. The Oudh family have been entertained by Colonel Sykes. The Court is annoyed at Canning's appointment of Leeke. The Liverpool merchants are aghast at their repulse from the Kooria Mooria Islands and now want armed protection.
