Excerpt from Journal of an Embassy From the Governor General of India to the Court of Ava, Vol. 1 of 2: With an Appendix, Containing a Description of Fossil Remains
May I presume to add that the Dedicafi tion of this Work is peculiarly due to Your Majesty, inasmuch as the materials for it were collected in the service of the British Government in India, where a comparison of the condition of the people of the British territories with that of the subjects of the surrounding States, is sufficient to show the beneficial power of the English Constitution, even in its remote and faint in¿uence; and to awaken sanguine hopes of the blessings which await your Indian subjects, when the benefits of that Constitution shall be fully and directly imparted to them, under your Majesty's paternal administration.
