A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Mnrhattaemotlicr statcs of liiclia, to bc thc coustitutional representative of the pire, and of the .i-ri Tri ii peisiiwah sfasovercum executive authority or the Marhatta einpire, and the prinniily, %H c!c A p. .. pen dixA. cipal chieftaiiis have been considered ostensibly as the subjects and officers of the peishAV ahs government. The British government therefore has concluded its general treaties with the Marhattas through the authority of the peishwah; and although in some of those engagements individual chieftains have been admitted to act as guarantees, the independent right of the peishwah to conclude treaties with any power in India has never been denied; nor has it ever been attempted to assert a claim on the part of any of the chieftains, to limit the independent right of the peishwah to form treaties and alliances without the advice or consent of any chieftain of the Marhatta einpirc. On the other hand, these chieftains have exercised the right of concluding treaties and alliances, independently of the peishwahs authority, and without his sanction or concurrence; and the British government recently concluded a treaty of sibsidy with the guikwar, without the previovis sanction of the peishwah; reserving, however, all the peishwahs rights in thc state of the guikwar. At the commencement of the war against Tippoo Sultaun, in the year 1789, lord Cornwallis, in forming a defensive alliance with thc Marhatta power against the power of Mysore, resorted to the peishwahs acknowledged authority as the best security for such an alliance, and accordingly negotiated, and concluded on the 1st of June 1790, the treaty of Poonah with the peishwah, without reference to any of the subordinate chieftains.
