Notes:
'Preface: When I began to write the following pages, I intended merely to communicate my views of the present Bengal Mutiny in the columns of the daily press : but my materials grew upon me, till they became too large for insertion in any newspaper ; and I resolved to print them as a separate pamphlet; without, however, altering in any way the style of the original composition. On my return home some years ago after spending ten years in the military service of the East India Company, I published " A brief Inquiry into the State and Prospects of India " ; an unpretending work, which had a wider circulation than I ventured to anticipate ; and which, in particular, is continually referred to by Sir Archibald Alison, in the chapter on India included in his history of Europe during the French Revolution. I have ever since maintained my interest in the subject, not only by reading the best works, but by conferring with the best authorities on the subject of Indian affairs. William Sinclair'.'By an old servant of The Hon. East India Company.'
