Nixon, from McIIenry county, one of the most talented members in the Illinois Legislature, offered in the House of Representatives tfte following preamble and resolutions, protesting against the progressive policy of the Czar of Russia, ancl asking the extension of the principles of mu uisuun eumpromise over an uie territory ' t,; i V.V.tt. . , .. , l Wlliell JNICIIOLAS mar hfrfafrpr nnnntro hxr . t - j j-v .. - "V - conquest or otherwise. . Here they arei , WThereas, great disturbances have ariseii In the Old World in consequence of the refusal of the Czar of Russia to accept the note of the Allied I'owers, and the subsequent inva sion of Turkey by that power; and whereas, we believe that it is the manifest intention of the Czar, to destroy the nationality of the Tur kisl empire, and annex its territory to the emjire of Russia,. thereby creating a dangerous monopoly, and endangering the balance of lower in Europe", and the peace and harinotiy of tie world; and whereas we deem it the im perative duty of this Legislature to protest jigtinst the aforesaid aggressive policy of the C;ar; and whereas we believe it was "the duty of the executive of Russia to, have agreed to the ultimatum of Turkey, as recommended by the neutral powers; and whereas we can t.ct, with due regard to our honor, and our antecedents, calmly submit to the annexation of any more territory to the empire of Russia, believing that the empire is already sufficient ly large. Therefore, be it Resolved by the House of Representatives, tle'Senate concurring therein, That the course pirsueel by the Czar of Russia upon the 'Tur k's h question meets with our unqualified dis approbation. R. solved, That in our opinion it was the iiity of the executive of Russia toliave agreed t the ultimatum of Turkey, and settled the question upon the basis therein proposed. Resolved, That we are opposed to the an nexation of any more territory to the empire of Russia, deeming it inconsistent with our in terest and the progress of democracy in Europe. Resolved, That the Czar be respectfully re quited to evacuate the Principalities- as soon as le shall receive a copy of these resolutions. acso'.ved, That we look upon the Prime Minister, Nesselrode, as entirely unfit fur the pos.tion he occupies, and would suggest that lie q immediately dismissed. Resolved, That if the government of Rus-, mh shall still ndhftroto the iHnlicy of annexing Turkey after the receipt of these resolutions, we would respectfully suggest, with all defer ance to the right of that Potter,-that the prin ciple? of the Missouri compromise be extended over all the territory acquired from Jiiikey. Resolved, That the Governor be required to forward to the aforesaid Czar a copy of the above resolutions. India. The population of India is estimated at about one hundred and twenty millions, and embraces not less than a dozen distinct na tions, and four seperate religions. They dif fer much in personal appearance, the natives of the. northern countries being fairer, better formed, and more robust and energetic than those of the south, who. with the exception of some of the Malabar tribes, are of small stat ure, darker, effeminate, cunning and timid. Other countries have their aristocracies of different kinds, but in none is the separation between man and man so marked as in India. Here what i3 termed caste rules the whole so cial fabric with an iron hand. The number of these castes, properly speaking, is four. The Brahmins, or, priests; the Cshatryas, 'or military class; Vaisyas, or merchants; and the Sud'as, or laborers. Beside these four there are many half castes formed by the ad-mixture ot the original. Below all are the Pa riahs oV outcasts, a class that Hindoo society excludes and 'whom it denies every right of humanity. Of thc other castes the Brahmins are the first -in point of dignity, and are re garded by the mass with an estimation little short 6f sanctity. The Cshatryas, though in ferior in the social scale to the Brahmins, maintain an exalted rank in public estimation. The name, which signifies Vthe sons of Kings," implies a boat of their honorable descent from tlbi ancient Rajahs; The Naisyas, or mer chants, are numerous, in the cities, particular ly on the coast, bntlicir character is general ly low for probity and honesty. The Sudras include the cultivators of the ground, and nearly all who engage in mechanical employ ments. . These four great divisions of society in In dia are defined with the most scrupulous ex actness. To some, one occupation is forbid den. ' In another case, the same imperious tule "operates to prevent access to different pursuits. But to the mixed classes all are open, and in times of scarcity, or -in cases of individual distress, the rules of caste may be so far relaxed, that the person may descend to the employment of a lower rank, or a Hin doo may exercise the offices of the class to which he is related on his mother's side. -No jHiTson out of the caste of the Brahmins can hope to exercise the sacred privileges bestow ed upon them. ' Below the Sudras jn the so cial scale, stand a mixed class. Pariahs, the offspring of a father pflhejlpwest of the four castes, and a mother of the highest rank. The most menial and slavish offices aro per formed by these persons. They are prohibit ed from "living in towns, and compelled to turn aside when they meet with their superi ors in rank. - Another chiss which occupy a low position in the social. scale are the .? AVag-; heries." : These men are hunters, and are pop-! ularly regarded as outcasts- Their habits of living ujon the; spoils of the chase fill the letter caste Hindoos with horror and loathing. These men hare a bright, restless eye, anef a wileand independent bearing. The expres sion of their feature is strongly marked, and gives, indication in thepossesspr of more pow erful passions than is common to the geneal-itr-of Hindoos. -" r- Persons who live under, republican institu tions have nd adequate conception of the vast influence the castes' have had upon the people of India. The system is interwoven with Tall religious rights, ideas and itistitutipus, aud the whole social fabric is permjateel and has been sustained by these well elefined extinctions. Under the influence of the;East India Compa ny these bAfriers havjB,; libwever,; been to a degree broken down, so that at the present day there jU wh at may be cal leef1 a , progre-ss to a better state of thinga.

Ac cordingly, Dr. Gardiner being-required to stanel up and receive the sentence of the law.
