He would follow the order indicated by the right hon. gentle ▪ m that must be now familiar to the home. The right hon. gentleman began with the bills on legal reform, the great importance of which he pressed on the attention of the house. He celled attention to the Common Law Procedure Bill, to the Equity Jurisdiction Improvement Bill, and to the Mester ia Chummy Abolition Bill, with regard to which he said, I. his usual terse and expressive language, " that no stops had been taken respecting these beyond their iativilaction." That was on Thursday. This was Monday, and he had the pleasure of reminding the right hon. gentleman that the Common Law Procedure Bill, the Equity Jurist/I{6m Improvement Bill, and the Master in Chancery Abolition Bill, "with re gard to which no one step had been taken," bad been now read a second time. (Hear, hear.) Then were two ether bills of legal reform which had paned a third reading—the Suitors in Chancery Relief Bill and the Amendment of the Law of Wills Bill. (Heat, hear.) According to the right hon. gentleman, who was a great authority on all subjects brought before the house, but who on the subject of legal reform was the highest authority in the house, " it was im poseible to exaggerate the magnitude, the difficulty, and importence of them two measures." Well, on Monday, he bad the pleasure of Worming him that these two bills, of which it was "impouitde to mans. rate the magnitude, the difieulty, and the import awe had paved the House of Commons. (Hear, bear.) So much with rasped to the Important bills on legal reform. Two of them had entirely passed the House of Commons, the three others bad been read a second time, and to the pulsing of the subsequent stages he did not anticipate any material opposition. (Heat, hear.) He did not think there was any arrogance or presumption in supposing that them Ave important bills would pass into law without at all interfering with that termination of parliament which was so rife in everybody's mouth. (Hear, hear.) The right hon. gentleman next proceeded to the group of colonial bills, which he characterised as of the highest importance. He reminded the house of the New Zealand But, " the importance of which could only be equalled by the number of clauses it contained." That was on Thursday. What was the bulletin of Monday with respect to this important bill ? Why it not only got into committee, but it had nearly got through committee. (Hear, beer.) They had passed 72 chimes of the bill—its most important clauses—and he did not anti cipate much opposition to those which remained. The state in which this bill was, therefore, justified the dope which her Majesty's government entertained of being able to pss this bill speedily through the NOM Of hear.) Another colonial bill to wheat the right has. pa: derma referred, end which he characterised as of ps importance, was the hereditary casual revenues in the 41110. min bill. With respect to this the law 0810•1111 at the morn expressed a doubt, mad more than a doubt, erhoddie *gee broaches of revenue, which now manned a peel (mpeoleso in their auriferous colonise, wsuld not be wiled to the ear solidatod fund instead of being applied is Ise Illedesty's go- Imminent wi-hed, to the benefit of the eannley ha which those important diosoveries were made.

He certainly conveyed ea imprrotion to the house and to the country that the Mats of publis br.ainess was tztressely unsatisfactory, and that there was a mat accumulation of business which there was not the slightest prospect of bringing to a termination.

The right hon. gentleman had 1111 MILITIA BILL On the order ofiiedai O R He third — minas if this bill, Mr. RICH said he wished to retest the thins of lawn sisteney that had beets made against metals his. cabers who had voted for the local Militia Bill M having voted spinet the bill of the present government. There were liar parties in the house. There were these who were op posed to all militia bills, and had voted against thou all • there were thou who were inclined to support either a local or a general militia bill, in the hope of getting either mo dified according to their wishes, when in cosansittu ; there were these who opposed the local militia bill, ae founded on a vicious prin ciple, and who had refused to allow the bill of the late government to be laid on the table. Of that party the right hon. gentleman the Chancellor of the Ex chequer and the Home Secretary were members. Then there was a fourth party who approved of the local militia, but who considered a - general militia to be mischievous, and who, though they bad allowed the present bill to be brought in, had voted against the second reading. He cer tainly thought the conduct of the members of the present government with regard to both militia bills justified the course which he and others hod pursued, and entirely re moved the charge of inconsistency. The right hon. gentleman had grounded the introduotion of the measure on the immi nent danger threatening from abroad ; and had stated that in the event of an invasioo our arsenals and our capitals would have to be defended by 25,000 men only. The discussion which had taken place had disproved both these allegations. The government have reduced the number of men origi nally proposed to be voted, and this reduced force would not even be drilled before the winter. The government had moreover declined to take advantage of the offer that the period during which the militia was to bo drilled should be increased to a sufficient duration to make the men effi • cient soldiers. The discussion on the Militia Bill had shown that instead of the 26,000 men of which the right hon. gentleman had talked, they might bring no less than 65,000 men into the field, composed of cavalry, in fantry, artillery, and marines. The right honourable gentleman (Mr. Walpole) had excluded Ireland from the militia. Ireland was as much part and parcel of the kingdom as Scotland and Wales, and had as good a claim to be defended and to assist in the defence. Ireland ought to be included in the consideration of the bill. When some years ago disturbances occurred in the manufacturing districts, troops were forwarded from Dublin to assist in restoring order in the disturbed districts. There was no reason why such a proceeding should not again be had re eosins to. The troop, in Ireland were more disposable than those in England, beaus the constabulary of the former possessed more of the military character. The ques tion of the disposability of our forces deserved the most serious consideration. Honourable gentlemen had, however, assumed that the house was legislating with regard to a large and comprehensive in vasion of this country, which would imply a lo ng course of preparation on the part of the enemy. Why, that would give us full time to make corresponding counter prepara tions. (Hear.) In the case of a general invasion, he would grant that the disposition of the forces must be very important; but to talk of quartering 10,000 men on the banks of the Thames, and 6,000 men in Portsmouth and Plymouth, and each of the other important arsenals, was a mere mystification. The question to be considered was not a comprehensive invasion, but a vigorous and violent as. sault on the sudden outbreak of a war by a body of men who might land in England before we were aware, and while we were unprepared. In such a case it would be a misters of cowardice and incapacity to lock up nix-sevenths of the army in garrison, and behind siege walk These vague ideas of danger had been dia. Mby diesuseion ; for it had been proved that instead of NM OM was an army of 65,000 troops backed by 14000 men in garrison battalions, whose services would omeder the regu'ar troops more disposable. If her Ma e ministers had come down to the house and said that did not consider such a force sufficiently strong for the of the country, and hod asked for such a reinforce meat as would make that fora more disposable, that re quest wall have been received with all due consideration and swats t. A variety of alternatives had been offered to the geverament by those hon. members who opposed the Wale Militia Bill. The noble lord (Lord J. Russ-11) had =t a local militia, a force much more in sic e with the old constitution of the country rhea that now pregmed. They had been requested also to aegrabe the 11111111114141 ride corps which voluntarily offered disk sereben The importance of arming and drtllimg the =liartilmae, and the police, and other local and belee bad lees pointed oat to them, but the go- VIIIIIIIIIII6 bad turned a deaf ear to all these propositions. The boa. mad pima member far Westminster had pointed a way by whit& UN eddiers of the line might with safety bo brought hem hes the colonise. Other hon. members had anaemia the addition of 10,000 to 16,000 men to the regale, army, though they admitted that such a manure would be ..at esgensive and permanently impossible. Another enueeties had been made by which 10,000 or 16,000 regular troops might be obtained at a trifling exposes ter the next twenty years and ea gable of maul exercise. It appeared to him to amount to a kind of infatuation, that instead of going to the well-disposed and discipline d of the popuLtion tor an addition to the regular troops, they should seek to hire a multitude of loose agriculturists to do the most important duty of a man, with which they were totally unacquainted, and for which there would not be time properly to instruct them. If the danger was real, as many said it was, it would be akin to that madness, with which they were told individuals and societies doomed to ruin were aliened, to seek for safety in such a force. Why should there not be an army of reserve ? Why not ni lmodel the army of nerve already existing in the pen sioners ? The pensioners were allowed ls. a day. An addition of ed. a day to that amount would not make a very large additional expense to the Tenantry. If such an offer were mad* to well-conducted soldiery, who had survad 10 or 12 years. it would in nine cases out of tea be eleserfally accepted. There were at this present moment 30 or 40,000 man in the army who had served upwards of ten years, 20,000 had served between twelve and fifteen years. Such an offer might, he thought, be mad, without the au thority of the house by an order in council, or by a warrant front the Home Guards. If it were made to the troops serving at home, and in the colonies nearest England, they might, before the militia was half organised, obtain 10,000 or . 12,000 soldiers, well disciplined soldiers, between 28 and 30 years of age. Each successive year would add to that number. The only objection that could be made to this simple proposition was, that the best soldiers would betaken away from the army ; but if the danger that was apprehended Wall real, that objection mast at once fall to the ground. If it were real. he wee at • loss to know, too, by what powers of reasoning the taking of • soldier of experience and good character from • colony, and transferring him to England to meet the greatest danger, could be construed into taking a good soldier from the army. Was the soldier not taken away to perform the highest wad most important duty ? The expense of carrying out his proposal to its full est extent—say to the maintenance of • force of 80,000 men—would met less than 200,0001. As the force would not require drilling except on alternate years, he might assume that 8.5,000 prime soldiers between 25 and 30 years of age might be obtained at a cost of 150,0001. a year. He should like to ask the most fervent admirer of the bill before the bogies, whether the 85,000 men thus easily obtained would net be a thousand times more pre ferable than the 80.000 ram whisk might or might not be raised under it, and which, when raised, would be useless. This was one of the 'shantung which was offered to the governm. nt, but they preferred, ea they said, reverting to the old general militia. But the old militia force wee essentially local ; it was raised, both officers and men, within their respective counties; it was never drilled in another country, and only in eases of emergency wee it required to leave its own country. The change made by the government in the militia law realty laid the foundation of some nondescript faros totally dis tinct from the army, a home fora under the command of the Home-offiee. This wag a feet of which the house and the country were scarcely aware, but its features had gra. dually developed themselves. The militia force had lost all the counteracting influences and restraints of local authori ties ; the quotas wen no longer raised in one araway alone; the larded qualification for o ffi cers had been abandoned. and personal or other qualifications introduced; the drill was no longer confined to the counties, and by the oath wb ich the militiwmen were to be forced to taka, they womb.. be liable to serve in all parts of the kingdom. In fast, it was • militia only in name. (Hear. hear.) 1w the e.t.a of an invasion, there were two methods by width the regular troops might be reinforced : either by IS a& dais*" to the regular army or by the subordinate tw-epers tion of regularly drilled battalions derived from Totes tarn, from the levy en moue. Each of the latter were er.eutially distinct from the militia as it was now to be in •stituted. The militia was now become nothing more than a mischievous compromise. (Hear, bear.) What were the requirements of an army capable of doing good service to the country in the event of an invasion ? The first was, that they should be soldiers capable of serving in lines ; the a.cond was, that they should be se curely found and easily organised; and the third, that they shou:d have • character of nermanence. How were the men to he found? Were the militia local, and wire the men crated near their own homes, he granted thi.t men mig •t be found; but the bouety would necessa rily attract the more or Igoe indigent and vaerant elms, and the very fact of their indigence and vagrancy would render such persons extremely difficult to find. The government relied on some regulations which were to be framed by the Secretary et War. Let those regulations be ever so astute they would not tacrew, the Pay ; and as these men were to be quartered in the provincial towns, soil to live in public-houses, he woull put it to the common Knee of any out of one, to per r hu eti s in . te the - i with the hos. member whether 21. a day, the amou n t to a (Haar, hear.) hear l r " T re lte - ,r y w w ou o l u d ld be com au s la curiosity, but it would be very di ffi cult to find them second time. After being drilled for three weeks the; would roam about the country , . and, as he presumed the government were not going to introduce the system of pass. lui that d e provided u t v ... i d op ed : ibdl f e or beer b by u. this pdin ir bill. t. _, T u e - a porta, it would not be easy to discover them. Now, when Very Hare and yet it was ageing would they be soldier. ? Never, so long as they had ouly right hon. gentleman, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, r riad o : e d e drition t i h mi, a t t i ihe 6 ciandiir Algiers. militia of d dis cipline sea such troops that they were required to guard the coun try. Would the right boo. gentleman say the acme of the tgii. Mr troops, or would he say the same of that army of reserve which be (Mr. Rich) had shown might be attached to the regular troops ? (Hear, hear.) Let them compare the government measure with his own proposal. py the time that the first batch of the militia could bit 'attained his proposal would secure, at no c st to the public, 26,000 fine troop in the prime of life ; (a number e of being extended to 70,000 or 80,000, and the sad other incidental expenses would cut under a year. On the ether head, the government mea nie mull together this year by meow of the bounty UPS mon; and next year, by means of the screw etas ballet, ft "Mabee might be raised to 80,000 ; and this militia um to do what would be done much better by the pensioner' "MI dockyard battalions. There was great truth =dead sew in the remark of the hon. member ter Manchester, that is ease of invasion there Willi nut a soldier in the country who would not be available, sin* there was note town, village, or hamlet in this country where numbers would not instantly be ready to perform police duty. If the militia was nut capable of filling that part in tho defence of the country, the necessity fur which was created by the asserted insufficiency of the army, it it could not co-operate with the army against the invader., it wee good fur nothing. The measure, then, fell to the ground on the point of efficiency—the minor grounds of popularity sad expense he had dealt with previously. Why, then, should the measure be paned ? or rather why should it not be rejected? The immediate consequence of its rejection would be that the government would have time fur calmer deliberation. Ile trusted no hon. gentleman would fall into the silly delusion that it was better to du something, no matter what, than to neglect legislation. He put it to the house whether the government, considering the matter calmly during the recess, and fortified by the report of a commie lion, would not be likely to produce a more permanent and useful measure then that before the house. Haring regard to the petitions which had been presented, he must say it would be disrespectful to the people, at the eleventh hour and in the fifty-ninth minute of the existence of the present parliament, to legislate in defiance of the declared wish of the country. Ho should therefore move that the bill be read a third time that nay six months. Mr. MACKINNON seconded the motion. He believed the recent idea of invasion had arisen from the pm. Talent use of steam-boats; but, in point of fact, steam boats increased the hazard to an invading force. Believing that this bill was opposed to the wish of the moaner, and obnoxious to the welfare of the community, he should give his vote for the amendment. Lord H. VANE would vote fur the third reading, and eventually fur the motion of the hon. member fur Lam beth, to omit the compulsory clauses. Ile agreed with the mover and seconder of the amendment that this measure bad evoked a considerable spirit of hostility throughout the country, but that was not a sufficient reason fur ne gativing it, if that house thought it necessary for the honour sad safety of the country. Mr. MACGREGOR said that public opinion out of doom was entirely against the bill, and therefore lie wondered at the hardihood of the government in going to the country on such • measure. In Londea the people had no apprehen sion when the funds were beyond par, and when enormous sums of money were leaving every day for investment in the public works of France. He believed that there never was a period in the history of the latter country when they were so desirous of maintaining amicable relatiens with us, and he knew that the President felt that nothing could be so dangerous to the stabilk y of his own power as any rup ture with England. As to the other three great powers— Russia, Austria, and Prussia—their policy, esp. cially singe the death of Prince Schwarxenberg, was one of peace, and of compact defence, not against the French President, hut against the eventualities of another revolution. In such a state of things, he thought that • more impolitic hill h a d hear) If increased force were necessary he would willingly consent to the addition of 6,000 men to our marine force, and that would be a much better defence than a body of men who would only be bad soldiers and worse Mtinll.l. With these views he felt bound to oppose the further pro gress of the bill. Mr. HEADLAM intended to vote against the third reed ing, and hoped that the house would concur with him in rejecting the measure. Mr. EWART said it was a paramount and insurmount able objection to • ministerial measure that it was inefh eient ; and this was so. Let the necessity for additional defence be proved, and he would consent to an increase of the regular army and of the artillery. Sir H. VERNEY (who spoke with his back to the gal lery) was understood to say that the bill would be useful as • means of training the population to arms, which was one of the moat satisfactory measures of national defence that could be adopted. He hoped the Secretary at War would make such regulations as would prevent the admis sion of persons of bad character into the force. He trusted encouragement would be given to the rifle corps, who would prove most valuable soldiers. It was desirable that the army should be increased by some rifle regiments. The hon. member for the West Riding had said the question of national delimmes ought to be submitted to a committee or a commission; and he hoped the government would not late sight of that suggestion. Mr. B. OSBORNE said that after the great majorities on this bill, not having offered a factious opposition to any of its clauses, or given any but a silent vote, he might be allowed to intrude for a short time on the attention of the ' house. Any impartial reader who hereafter reviewed the his tory of our put wars and taxation, must come to the same conclusion as a celebrated writer, that taxes had not been raised to carry on war but that wars bad been raised to e on taxes. (Cheers.) The majori.y of that house would an not dispute the proposition that our greatest glory nu bat an occasion for taxation, and that the most expen save luxury of the day was a successful general. (Hear, bear) He drew a material distinction between armies Ihnned for that purpose and those for defeoee. To these bee. members who were against any defensive measures at ape he would submit that in the " Utopia" of the great and pious Sir Thomas More, in which was depicted a state of where all lived in primeval happiness. detesting war, glory, lawyers and soldiers being alike prohibited hear)—for the author would have neither martello towers 'nor briefs in Chancery—(mughter)—yet even in that Utopia they were allowed the use of arms, and to fight in defence of their rights and liberties when attacked. (Hear.) He could not think that any one in this country was so Utopian as to seek to denude the country of its natural defence against foreign invasion. Without at all agreeing in the panic that had been raised, he did not think—looking at the present state of the continent, the gigantic armies there assembled, and the reactionary rulers at the head of thole armies—that we ought to decry the prudent circumspection which was occupied ia reviewing our defences, with a view to put them in a state of efill• ciency. (Hear, hear.) It might be very well for the hou. baronet to say that he had great confidence in Louis Napo leon. He (Mr. Osborne) did not share in that confidence. And why not ? It was most natural that a man who had raised himself by the power of the military order should act in accordance with military prejudices. (Hear, hear) We must come to the point. Tee power we dreaded was France; we had no confidence in Louis Napoleon, nor had we any right to have. (Cheers) A revelation was made by M. Theirs in the Chamber of Deputies—when there was a Chamber of Deputies in France—which he was sur prised had not been quoted in any of these debates. It was short and simple, but it told wonders; it told much against Louis Napoleon, and justified us in calling upon whatever government we had to see that our defences—sufficient as he maintained them to be—were put in a state of efficiency. On the 17th of January, WI, hi. Thiers had made this statement in the Chamber of Depu ties, which had never been contradicted. He said that in an interview with Louis Napoleon, the latter had told him that it was necessary to occupy the public mini of France, and to this end that it was essential to undertake some great project abroad, whereby the minds of the marshals would be captivated. Atter this, ministers would be blind if they did not take every precaution to put this country in the most efficient state possible, with the large sums of money that were now voted for our national defences. The ministers were bound to supply more accurate and detailed information as to the present state of the national statement been made to the house ? Year after year they defences, military equipment. and so on. Had any such had been voting enormous Mims of money, but they ledd had no means of knowing how they were laid out. Ile was prepared to assert, that if properly laid out tiny would be quite sufficient fur the defence of the country without any militia, any martello towers, or any addition to our rifles. (Hear, hear.) He had discovered Mom the French military estimates of 1848, that there really was some truth in the old proverb, that one Englishman was equal to two Frenchmen ; for he found that an English soldier cost double what a French one did (Laughter.) The British force, st all antes, numbered 113,287 men, and it cost 9,337,0001., or about 821. 81. 4d. per man. The French estimates for 1848 were for 338,633 men who cost 12,000,1831., or 401. 3e. Bd. (Cheers.) But for our 113,000 men we had actually 117 generals, whereas in the French army, treble (tad now quadruple) the number, there were only 8 marshals and 143 generals. (Hear, hear.) The total coat of the staff and regimental officers in Eng land was 1,270,0001. upon • charge for the effective service of 3,164,0001., or 381 per cent. The cost of the same in the French army was 2,260,0001., upon a charge of 12,000.000 1 0 or not 19 per cent. (Cheers.) But then we had the dead weight of half pay officers, at ass expellee of half a million. The clothing of the French army was contracted for, entrant 12s. per head leas than in this counts". which ought to be the cheapest in the world for woollen goods. (Hear, hear.) Again, military jester in France cost 8,0001. a year. In E ng l an d it coot 31.90 0 : (Hear, hear.) All the arms and stores in the French terve* in a much higher state of discipline than our own.
