TRAVELS IN INDIA
Including
SINDE AND THE PUNJAB.
BY
CAPTAIN LEOPOLD VON ORLICH.
TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN,
BY
H. EVANS LLOYD, ESO.
IN TWO VOLUMES.
VOL. I.


NOTWITHSTANDING the numerous works of every description which treat of India, notwithstanding the marvellous phenomenon presented by the rise, progress, and colossal magnitude of our Indian empire, it was, on the whole, too long before the English nation took an interest in the subject in any degree commensurate with its importance. The affairs of that country were regarded as the concern of the East India Company rather than as involving any national interest: — India, in fact, was looked upon as an El Dorado, where persons, enj oying the patronage of the Company, might acquire immense fortunes; and when public attention was drawn to abuses, real or supposed, it was, as in the case of Warren Hastings, rather to forward the views of a party than to vindicate the honour or to promote the interests of the mother-country.
