EUROPEANS, this term is very often used to distinguish the European soldiery belonging to whatsoever nation in India, from the native troops of India, entertained by that nation : and the term Europeans is used instead of the appellative of the nation to which this soldiery belongs, because these troops are always com- posed of a variety of European nations/instead of being all of the nation they serve. Having detailed imder the arricles English and French army, the military operations of these nations, ' it becomes needless to table the particular cir- cumstances in which the term Europeans is employed. AVe shall nevertheless to satisfy ac- curate curiosity, enumerate all the mentions that are made of these Europeans, distinguish- ing them by the nation to which they belong.
