(Received 27th January, noon.)
DELHI, 26th January. In the Council of State, General Lord Bawlinson made a striking speech, answering the Indian resolution that the. recruitment of British officers for th« Indian Army should be stopped immediately, and only Indians commissioned to fill tile vacancies. He pointed out that it would be a fatal policy, until tried by experiment in a lesser degree; that officers had to be grained and educated to develop the qualities of fitness and command, and that it would be impossible to make Indians efficient officers in large numbers, simply by passing a* political resolution.
