Siltlt having been fuggefted that Government have it in contemplation to inereafe the pay of the Lieutenants of the Navy, I with through the medium of your paper to awaken its attention, and that of the Public, to another branch of our armed eflabliOt• ment, equally entitled to their gratitude and protec tion ; I mean the Commiffioned Offices. of our rev.. lar Infantry. It is well known to every one converfant in the Hißory of Great Britain, that more than a century has elapfed fence the pay of the higher ranks of the army has received even the rink inconfiderable aug mentation, during which period ft has been found regnifite from the enhanced value of all the artitlis • of life, not only to double the pay, but greatly ton -1 arge the allowances of the Nrin-Commiffioned Offi cer and Soldier ; upon what principle of juftice this partial provifinn has been made, it is difficult, if not impoffible to firm a rational cnnjefture. If our an. celtor. ecefidered the prefent pay of the Officers of the Army, no more than a fair and equivalent remu neration for their Terriers et the time it war eitahlifh ed, it Purely is but equitable, when every neeeffary of life bears a noble enhancement, and the price of la bout from the meaneß mechanic to the mai iiinuei. outs Ratefmen pruportinnably advanced, that ibis op preffed part of the nation thould receive from their country a fuitable prnvifion. The great depreciation of money within the lalt forty or fifty years, hat been fuccefsfully urged as a competent reafon for increaf ing the referees and pay of thofe who fill the various ilattons in the doll depattnitnr of Governmen• ; is it not then incompatible with the jolt principles of equi ty to exclude fuch only from a participation of fimi- Lir advantages, as devote their lives and conflitutions in the hour of danger to the fervice and prefervation of their country ? I am aware there are many aho imagine thefe diftreffes chimerical, becaufe adulated i l by the warmell fentiments of patrintiftn, and relying upon the benevolence and gratitude of their country, the Officers of the Britifh Army have hitherto Pup. 1 preffed their embartaffments and complaints; bat the poverty of an Officer is now become proverbially nntorious, and the profeffinn is daily lofing its refpec tability for want of an adequa e rapport, which, as a military writer obferves, " unable to preferve itielf, is expofed to every infult, vile and ingrate." But if the feelings of the nation are not fufficiently alive tothe csiffi. culties under which its Officers labour,itis atleaßitsin. terelt to confider the calamities that may refult from !Of fering the pt ofellion itfelf to fall intoaßate of difrepute. When the preknt pay of the Officers of the army was I ellablinted, a pair of colours was thought an ade quate and fufficient pravifion for a younger fon, and lwere then only confined to the care of men of libe rat education, illußnous family, or brilliant accom pfifhments ; and the wifclom of placing the honour tithe nation in loch hands is fully exemplified by the hiflory of there times; trot owing to the great dimi nution of the value of money luxe that epoch, and the prefent extreme parfirnony of the nation, few, if ( any, will now embark in the profellian, except mew I of very affiuent circumßances, or fuel as are entirely delkirute of every other refonrce, and the policy may at lea be queftioned, of canfiding the national ho none to the care of men, either immerfed in diffipa tion through the exuberance of their. wealth, or clef titute of independence by the indig-nee of their da ( tion. If we expert oar army to etch eve exploits cur refpondent to its ancient military charader, it is ne ceffary to refine it from its prefent degraded Rate ; and by enerealing the Pay, to invite the fame defcrip. tion of men to embrace the profeflion, as formerly fought and conquered, and railed the martial glory of their country to its cord of fplendour ; but fa long as the Pay is incompetent to the fupport and honour. able maintenance of an Officer, fo long will the pro feffion of arms be difgraced by needy adventurers, illiterate people, and men of dubious and problemati cal honour. Tnefe obfervations I have confined to the Officers of the regular Infantry alone, as thofe of 1 the Cavalry are more amply provided for ; and Gen tlemen of the Militia, independent of obtaining their Commiflions without purchafe or fervice, are ruppuf. eatu be placed beyond the inconveniencies complain. ed of, by the private property that eitablifhes their qualifications. Moreover, it is but fair and equitable I to exped, that fuel% as toil in the Vineyard, during the whole and heat of the day, thould be more libe rally recompenfed, than thofe who only occafionally lab )01. 1111.1.111AILIVII. _I
