THE INFLUENCE OF THE DURBAR.

"Now I can die in peace, as I have dis- charged the three duties of a true Sikh-1 have lived according to the precepts of the Gurus, I have aided the State with my sword and now have paid my personal homage to my Sovereign." So said the aged Rujah of Nabka it the Delhi Durbar and never were turer and more sincerer words uttered by a Khalsa, nor could any studied oration have been more eloquent.

Lord Roberts in one of his telling speeches at the gathering of the Indian Princes in London at the banquet given in their honour by the Royal Asiatic Society made a happy comparison when he said "we had received many hard knocks from the Sikhs and many hard knocks from the Boers; but when peace was made, when the struggle was over, the situation was then accepted, the result being that the Sikh had been our best friends, our mest faithful allies.' The promptitude with which the Boer Commandoes have come in and laid down their arms-and which Lord Kit bener has acknowledged in the hand somest way in a remarkable mesange to the Boer Generals-has its analogy in what happened after the battle of Gujerat, when the Sikhs who had made us tremble for our Empire at Ferozeshah an 1 Chillianwalla threw down their swords in one vast pile, and each with two rupees in 1 is packer, returned to the plough whence he had originally come.

If we take the Sikh as a typical representative of the Hindu fighting maces of India, the im- pressive words of the old and aged Khalsa warring indicate in no slight degree the feel ings and sentiments of the largest portion of His Majesty's subjects in Hindoostan. Now let us turn to the Mahomedans of India and listen to the weighty and solemn words of no less a personage than an able and amiable Queen. Her Highne's the Begum of Bhopal, who took her place in the Turbar, veiled, among the other Chiefs, presented a written address in which she "as the well-wisher and sincere admirer of the British Paramount Power," assured Government," on that historic occasion, not only of the fidelity, devotion and affection of myself, my sons, my people and of the women of my State, but also of the loyalty. of the whole Mahomedan population of India,

was in contemplation by the Indian Goyer- SANITARY ment, almost nil the native radical newspapers went agog and deprecated, in an feeble language, the waste of public money on a gorgeous and purely ostentatious Tummashi at a time when India was growning under dire visitations of Providence. The Tum maska, however, has been held and gone and the Grand Imperial Darbar of 1903 is already a matter of history. Never in the history of the world, ancient or modern, has such an extraordinary grand and impressive spectacle been seen or heard of. From every nook and corner of Hindoostan, have princes, Chiefs and Nobles poured forth at a common centre, to give expression to the August repre- sentative of a most popular Monarch, of their sense of homage, admiration, and gratefulness for the justice, impartiality and benignity of a Government, which when all is said and done, have defused the blessings of peace and pros- perity to a land distracted from time immemor- fal by religious and metal bigotry and fanatic- ism. In comparison with its reality and genuine- ness the sullen submission of the Parthians and Scythians to Alexander the Great, of an- cient Macedonia, of the Vandals, Huns and Goths to Cæsar and Augustus of Ancient Rome and of the princes of Southern Europe to Na- polean le Grande, may be taken as quite super- ficial and ephemeral

Apart from the fact of its evoking a genuine burst of fidelity and attachment to the Throne in the hearts of the different and varied races of India, the Durbar could not have failed to give an emphatic impression of its trus significance to the representatives of European powers, and if it has succeeded in the slightest degree to the preservation of the peace of India, and for the matter of fact of all the world twice-nay ten times the actual expenses of the rhaw would not have been made vain.-Times of India.
