Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Warren Hastings Perhaps no man of undisputed genius ever inherited less, in mind or money, from his parents, or owed them fewer obligations of any kind. It is not possible to find in Pynaston Hastings any trace of the char acter or intellectual qualities of his son; the mother died in child-birth, while the father seems to have abandoned him very soon afterwards; for in a petition presented to the Lord Chancellor by their uncle in 1733, on behalf of Warren Hastings and his sister Anne, it is said that their father had Withdrawn himself to some distant place, leaving the children wholly unprovided for. The boy was at first placed by the grandfather at a charity school; but at the age of twelve he had the good luck to be sent by his uncle, who had taken charge of him, to Westminster. The system and mode of life at the large public schools of England, with all their grave deficiencies in regard to methodical teaching, have been usually good for the development of character and scholarship in boys of real intellectual ability. Their innate tastes and aptitudes, which need only free play and example, find room and stimulus, where the aver age schoolboy only discovers that loose discipline means liberty to be idle. Hastings worked hard, was good on the river, and was elected to a king's scholarship in the year 1747, as the names engraved on the wall of his dormitory still testify. But his uncle died, and he was made over to the care of a distant connection, who happened to be a director of the East India Company, and who insisted, against the remonstrance of the West minster head-master, that Hastings should give up his high hopes of distinction at a university, and should learn accounts from Mr. Smith of Christ's Hospital.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Speeches of the Managers and Counsel in the Trial of Warren Hastings, Vol. 1 It will be convenient for the reader of these speeches to have at hand a short narrative of the series of events which formed the foundation of the charges they refer to. These are connected with only a small part of the great measures which distinguished Mr. Hastings' administration of India. We shall have no occasion to speak of his wars with the Mahrattas, 01 the struggle for possession Of the Carnatic with Hyder Ali. For, although these great efforts Of our then feeble power in the East may have given occa sion for the course of policy arraigned by Mr. Hastings' accusers, they are not among the transactions included in the Articles Of impeachment. The matters referred {o in the actual charges against him, especially in the Articles Opened in the speeches comprised in the present volume, are mainly connected with the early revolutions in the govern ment of Bengal, the history of the province of Oude, and of its dependency, the zamindary of Benares.
