[TO THE EDITOR OF THE "SPECTATOR.")

8111,—I think it was in the Spectator that I saw the account of General Dyer's name being put on a slab in the Golden Temple at Amritsar, the only other European name being that of John Nicholson. This seems so significant of the loyal Indian's appreciation of his action in stopping the riots that I have expected to see it mentioned either in the debates in the House of Commons or in the Press, but so far in vain. If I am right, I hope you will notice it in your remarks en the question this week, as I -think it ought to be widely known that the people in England may realize what the feeling in India was as against the disgraceful treatment which has been meted out to the General at home.—I am, Sir, &c., J. C.
