ItIPFAL ere Tiff ADDITIoNAL armies SILL ' 1 Mr. Secretary WINDHAM moved the Order of she day far going into a Committee on the Bill for • repealing the Additional Force A& Th: order having been read, and the queftion put, that the Speaker, d a now leave the chair, Mr. JOHNSTONE rofe„and oblerved that hay. erg upon a former occation voted for the propoiition of the Right Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Canning) ta t tpeaing this Bill, he now role to trouble the Houfe eriOs a few explanations of the motives which had .4cided him to give that vote. When the Additional Ferree Bill was fit it brought in he had (visaed it, be . ;anti he thotiwlit it would never be produelive ; and though it had - moved more In than lie had expeCled, get &many objeftions occurred to its principle an& pia/lite, that he Ihould not have voted as he had, if the repetition hid been of a nature to prevent the • • Bottle from repealing the AEI during the Seffion. From the devel •pensent of the Right Hnn. Gentle inan'e (Mr. Windham) plan, which had been given to the !Annie, he had the firongell objeflions to it. The expreffion of the Right Hon. Gentleman, in de . kribing the prefent late of the public force, was, that 5 1 /1 our army appeared as if they had clubbed battalions, and every thing was in an order of inverfion or retro. gra/di-it : he therefore firongly dwelt upon the ne-1 eeffity of a fyllem of regulation calculated to cure thee diforders. The Right Hon. Gentleman had em phaticelly Paid , that the fate of nations was decided by armies; and after fisting that petition in a man ner fo forcible as he had done, he (Mr. Johnftone) owned he was prepared to expel (note plan infinitely more efficient than that which had been fuggefled. When experience had fbewn the extreme difficulty of procuring recruits for our army under the high boun ties that were given, and after ill the exertions that were made, be could not fee the teal profpat of re medying the defett by the propofed rcdulion of boun ties ; in lieu of which the Ri g ht Hon. Gentleman pro poled an advance of fixpence per week to men who bad leveed (even years, and one Chilling per week to men who had ferved fourteen years; this would never be felt as an adequate compenfation. The Right Hon. Gentlemen had conceived, that in order to render the recruiting fervice more effective, reliance was not to be placed on high bounties, but an appeal to the ho. Pourable feelings of the foldier : if this could be of. reeled, it would certainly be defirable ; bur he doubt ed the propriety of depending on fuels a principle.— Something.he thought, certainly ought to be done for the encouragement of the army, in the fame manner es was propofed a few nights finest by a Noble Lord (Howick) for the navy, by intruding the number of petty officers in each regiment, and thereby not only ;tendering the difcipline more perfett and orderly, but pointing out more frequent opportunities of prefer ment for good behaviour. This wain principle pre valent in all the military Cervices of the Continent, and bad the bell elle& in exciting men to fignalize them (elves 4 he would lift it adopted in relation to fubal tern officers as well as common foldiers, particularly where the approbation of a Commander in Chief was mentioned in General Orders, or pointedly expreiTed to Government. This was the praelice in our Navy. He did not taped to hear from a firong Government fo timid a pretence, as that of declining to rem.. from the militia into the army of the line to the ex tent which might he done. It had been propofed by the Right Hon. Gentleman gradually to reduce the militia down to its original force of 40,0c0 men.— Why nos do fo at once, and thus let 20,000 men at liberty to join the regular army ? or why not recruit the regiments of the line from the militia to the m utat poCfible extent, and then ballot the counties over again ? This had been done in 1799, and it.had no prejudicial effect whatever on the militia fervice. In the dal year 14,000 men were recruited from the militia, ...n4 he would appeal to the country whether it had done any injury to the fervice. Without fame filch meature !sow was the propofed force of aoo,ooo men to be vai ..c1 for the fervice of the United King dom ? It might be thought, he would allow a men• fur: of beillinefs ; but it was one to which he was litre the country would cheerfully fubinit under the pre• tent exigency. He complained that in the growing wealth of the country, many arrangements had taken place to defeat the objets of the militia law, and to deprive the fervice of many valuab:e men. He in lanced the lowering the fines to ten pounds upon perfons hallo:tee, and not chtifing to ler we perfnnally. ' The parithe'. out of their rates, in molt inliances, paid thofe fines fur the poor man, and the money went to raife a man for the militia, who would other. wife have enlified for the line. Colonel GRAHAM recurred to a (umen' he had made upon the dal night this Bill was in Oilcuf lion, refpeCting the prafttce on the Continent of entitling men for limited fervice, even its time of war, which an He.nourable Gentleman on the other fide of the Houle was pleated totally to deny, He was not pill at that moment prepared to refute the Hon. Member, by the preduetion of any authority op which he could poloively rely. But lie had (lace felt it his dory to make more minute enquiry, from per fans moll competent to give him information, Darne ll-, feveral French Officers, now in London, all of whom had corroborated his former affertions, and flared, that both before and since the Revolution, the' pradice had prevailed in t.ie French fervice, subbed been attended with the bell effects in recruiting the army.

Gentleman ; and, with all due deference to the great military au thorities who fupported this Bill, and oppofed the meafure of the Right Hon. Gentleman becaufe it was new and untried, he begged to °Verve, that fo aro was the date of the country new and unparal leled, and one that called for new and extraordinary meafures; the (yam of Europe was fuch as made it indifpenfable for the country to depart from old and ettablithed ufages, and to become, fnr its own fecu city, a great military nation. Unlefs the induce ments pi - minted by the new plan were held out to the lower orders of the people of England, how wcre a fufficient number of men, cradled in liberty, and reared from infancy in a fpirit of independence, to be induced to enter for general fervice ? Such was ,he neceffity of an adequate difpofeable force, that lintels our army was fo compofed, as to be imrnedi defy convertible from defenlive to offenfive opera tinny, it could never ate with the necelfary effect for national fecurity. Therefore, the fyitem for recruit ing the force mud be the tole and general one in tile; to produce its full effeft, it muff meet no rivals in every market town. A partial trial of it would be produdive of no gond confequence ; but if upon fair experiment it (hook' fail, recourfe to coercive mea -1 Cures might then be had, upon grounds the TWOik fair acid mineable. Bet in voting for the repeal of this Bill, he by no means pledged himfelf to fimport the whole detail of the plan propofed by the Right Ho. nourable Gentletnan. There Were, on the contrary, Come parts of it which he did not entirely approve : he (hould, for inftance, not be difpofed to refign the' Volunteers, whole tel vices he highly approved, and whofe competence for action in the field, fn far as he had feen them, he thought in no degree objection. able. He had Peen in Great Britain but a few batta lions of them, and thofe in Scotland, whole dilcipline he thought complete; but in Ireland, where he had teen very numerous bodies of them m the field, he' confidered them inferior to no troops of any delerip- Lion, and competent to ferve in the line wish any corps whatever. There were other parts of the detail too upon which he differed; for inftance, on dividing the period of 2 t years fervice, he timid think the fink term (hould be much the longed; but he could by no means agree to the argument which had been ad duced, that the fuldiers now entifted for life would unmoor, or feel ditcontent, becaufe 'others in the fame regiment fhould hereafter enli(t for (hotter pc rinds. Tie knew *too well the charader of Britith foldkrs, to apprehend any fuch confequence ; they knew the terms of :heir original entitimetto , and it was do 1. art of their chat-after to murmur when faith was fairly kept with them. He fear ed no relaxation of difctpline on the account of approaching dileharge to men entitled for limited pe riods. and could not therefore accede to fuch an im putation upon the officers of regiments. lie could never fuppofe it podible that a Bonilla foldicr would intilt upon his ditcharge Co long at his country was in danger, nt that he would be content to retire to his pariah, branded with the fulpicioa of cowardice. He thought the enlisting for that period well calculated to obtain a better order of recruits, and to remove many of the'caufes which led to revere and ignomini ouspunifinents, fo defirable to abolifh, if it were at allpradicable; • and fur his own part he lhonld prefer troops actuated by that moral courageorod fdife of honour and love of their country, however fosse Gentlemen might be difpofed to ridicule thole fenti utents in the foldiery, than by that cold mechanical phyfical courage, created by revere difcipline and bards treatment, with no other motive of anion, than the dread of punament, and the confederation of 1 pay : and he would appeal to every officer who had led troops into )lion, which defcription of men he would prefer to command in any arduous enterprise. I Lord CASTLEREAGH was fully aware, that no' talk could be more ungracious to undertake, than that of endeavouring to diffuade Parliament from the adoption of a plan which the Right Honour able Gentleman, as one of his Majelly's Minifters, at fo arduous, had taken fn much pains to con vince himfelf, and to convince the Houk, was the mod eligible for their adoption : but the deep and tiding tulle he felt, of the fuperior efficacy of the bill now propofed to be repealed, to all the objets propofed by the Right Honourable Gentleman for art efellive increafe of the public force, was Inch, that he could not, without an abfolute dereliftion of his public duty, omit to imprefs upon the Houfe the in furmountable objeltions he had to the Right Hon. Gentleman's ph.n, and the motives which induced him to•give a decided preference to the bill now pro. pored to be repealed, in order that his Majefly's Mi. niflers (hould not have inadvertency to plead ; ana that upon their own Moulders might red the refpon hbility of throwing out of their hands, wantonly and unneceffarily, a plan of military arrangement, which hadd• been found fo productive, for the fake of adoptirg a new projel which never had been tried, and in fupport of which the Right Hon. Gentleman had fearcely deigned to give to the Iloule a (Ingle reafon, in anfwer to all the objedions which had been oppofed to it. Not even the brilliant and du ' quest (peed) of a Right Hon. Friend of his (Mr. 1 Canning), on a former night, could wring from the Right Hon. Gentleman a fingle anfwer to any of his able and irrefidible arguments. In the arr. intnts he was' about to offer, he (horrid ftridioufly avoid any application to the military part of the hill, and dired his obfervations merely to the civil part of it, which was of fufficient magnitude for the prefers[ difcuffion, and which teemed to be the branch mod obnoxious to tie Right Hon. Gentleman, and there who now fupported him. The fird paint to be COO. fidercd, was the patient deficiency of the army, and tie further increafe of that deficiency likely to Bow from the Right Hon. Gentleman's plan, before this Bill (hould be abandoned for the fuliditution of one new and untr:od. The pit fait deficit was twenty. five thoufand men ; and time annual deficiency, ariting from caftialtier, could not he etlimated at Ids than ' fifteen ihnufand men. 'elk Rig ht Hon. Gentleman pmpofed t 2 difebarge all torn w ho had already far,- ed for twittyaine years, which would amount to 9 battalkalgoof veteran loldiers. This would produce annually — a very confiderahle addition to the deficit by calrialties. He propored, betides, to let the Mi• lids irallfe away to its otiginal eflablament, at the rate orabout five thoitfand men per annum, which, added to the ether deficits, would form oue grand j deficit in the tattling rat of no lets than fifty•one thoufand men. The ordinary recruiting fervice, to fupply this; produced, upon an average of the lath five years, about eleven thoufand men per annum, In that at the latter end of the nett year, upon` this calculation, the deficit from the propofed force of the country would be no lets than f qty thoufand men, and this alarming deffiva and difficulty would be produced under the plan of the Right Hon. Gentle. titan, adopted without any caufe or neeeflity what ever. He would undertake to thew, that by this plan, the cafualties would be doubled, and the necef lities of the recruiting fervice increafed from fifteen thoufand to thirty thoufand men per annum. The Noble Lord next proceeded to hate the average pro duce of the ordinary recruiting fervice, under lime feveral periods during the war—namely, before the operation of the Army of Referee; during the ope ration of the Army , of Referve—the interval between tl-e operation of that army and the Additional Force 11 Il—and laltly, the operation of the Additional Force Bill Will. In. the &ft period, the average of recruits raifed per mouth, for twelve months, was nine hundred and eighty. The next was a period 0f.. , eight months, average (even hundred and eight men; the third was under the Army of Referee, and the average (even hundred and fifty one; and the fourth when the Additional Force Bill came into operation, the average, monthly, was nine hundred and eight men. Now, during the laft period, neither the Army of Referee nor the Militia were in operation,and there fore, the increafed number could not be fairly reek , oiled as a general average; but it was found that while ' the Parith Officers were obtaining their quota of men, recruiting parties, aBing for the Bill, felt no dimi nution in their fuecefs ; and there could not be a fironger argument againh parting with this Bill, than that it had given tBOO men within the lath two months, and that it would certainly have produced Soon more by the latter end of the year, notwith. handing the obvious damp cart upon its operation by the fufpenfe and difcouragement under which thole who had seed under it, for the WI two months, had laboured. Thefe fads, then, he defired to be con. trailed with the plan propoled by the Right Hon. Gentleman, the firlembjeft of which was to call down a fyllem that had been found fo-produftive, for the adoption of one totally novel nod untried, which the Right Hon. Gentleman had repeatedly, before his acceilion to office, detailed fro m the oppolste fide of the Houle, and to which no Members had expreffed their oppofition in terms of flronger condemnation and contempt than many of thole very men who were now piepared to applaud it in terms of the higheß panegyric. A emellion very neceffary to be confi detest, .as, whether the Right •Ilon. Gentleman in. tended to fubltitute, in aid of his ordinary recruiting fyflem, any parochial plan of this V ncl ; fur expert ence had proved, that, without .e aid of fame pa rochial levy, he would not be enabled to mite the complement of men 'requi cd in time of war; for even fuprding it otherwife pranicable, upon the great mars 41 population in the United Kingdom, it would he impoffible, cnnaently with the intereft and effi ciency of military fervice, to detach a fufficient cum her of recruiting partiessfrom the different regiments of the line to teach the whole of that population.— . For inftance, the population was calculated at 5,000,000, fpread over ts,coo parifhes ; and fop pofiog that Soo recruiting parties were detached, the proporti us would he a party to every thirty parithes, or 30,000 men, there would never be fufficient to try within the year the operation of the recruiting fer vice upon to extenfive a field. Loft year the num ber of parties detached on the ordinary recruiting, were 450, while Oink under the Additional Force Bill were 260. There confined of 4.c00 men, of whom 630 were valuable' officers, whom the fervice could h j y . no means fpare ; and when the expence of maintaining thole officers and foldiers on the reel ult. ing fervice was conlideted, it wee clear that the ex pence mutt be added in the charge of railing the men. This amounted lall year to co oocol. *Web, on an average of the men railed, amounted to no lets a firm than 181 per man, exclufively of all bounty to 'the recruits themfelves. Now, if the Right Hon. Gentleman would compare thi, with the expence of railing men under this Bill, he would find, that the charge in the pariffies did not exceed an average of four guineas per man. Had his Mikity's late Minifler. continued in office, it was certainly their in tcntinn to have taken advantage of that fyflem, for the general recruiting fervice, and to have ellablifhed a kind of parochial agency in every part of the king dom. He knew too well the opinions of the Right Hon. Gentleman of filch agency to capriole he would adopt it, confidering, as he did, every man in co. hooted clothes, who railed a recruit, as nothing better than a crimp. But from the belt enquiries he couldsm;ke, he was able to learn, that any benefit to be derived in this way, mull be under the local influ. ence of the parifhes, and not by any unknown officers appointed by Government, who would infallibly become obnoxious to tine people, be regarded as crimps, And their cautions prove tnt.illy unfuccefiful. He would not deny that abufes had trilled under the operation of the Aft in rmehion, bur he denied thirt they exited to the extent that bad been flared, or' that they were in their nature incurable. With all there tubules, however, that a 0 had already furniffied the country with a vet y conli.lerable augmentation of it. military force, and much more might trill he ex peeled from its operation. One ahafe had hrcn Rated to be, the circuitous bounty which' had been given to tluda entering the line ; but this enly amounted to rive guineas per man, :it'd d:4l not extend to more than 3800 men, who had crililled for general lzrvice. It had alto been hid, that arc praftice of railing men by agency bad been an a:ittfe arifing from the A,'. But he would contend, that it was as much local m its operation as the Militia Cavite; and that tinder it the men were in general as firiftly levied within every pat Ocular county. Betides, there was nothing in the nature, even of the Militia fervice, which pre. vested the introdudior of agency to a certain extent. The fyllemof agency had always (lined in frame de gree, even in the Militia, and was not an abate con. fined to the AO. It was not forprifing that the me - fure fhould have been at Grit received by Gentlemen in the country, with tome degree of laffitude and in difference, from the experience they had had of pre. ceding plars t and he would venture to predlft, that the Right Hnn. Secretary's Levy en Mae would meet with a limilar reception. It had alit been ftid, the operation of the Ad had been oppreffive to the country ; but we bad I;ketrife to confides tha momma. -• ~. tots fituation in which the country was placed, and the difficulties with which we were furrounded.— • 4 : ( Here Mr. Windham whifpered the espreflion 4, • bedinget that he miNyao:7laedneLdriotwor would ud c l on dthae t ginaautiineldi repeat,rin b n y ts . f l th e l s ha v et . ;. Right Hon. G as the exigencies of the country were great, the pre fent was not the proper fcalbn for repealing an Aft that had been found, on the whole, produatve ; and he unified, that the Houk, and the country, would compare the expencc occafioned by it with its rernks, and would make their option. But he contended, a c a xp e e d ac u e po a n s , ha it d h be ad en no a t ,t been ed. a i t wh lf tnh th pf i ar s o , ll: l: tierl i y i h nnainced the county of Lekener, tendedb t Where ti:P aetnPn'wra id , t he full complement nd a at a much of two lil t h l a p e c n d r ecd than men had a e a fame number had been railed under the Army of •Re fcrve AR. Wherever the Ail had been carried into diva with zeal and attivity, there it had produced the defied arta ; but its partial failure was not fur ptifing, when it was reconciled what Aunties the meafure had occalioned in that Houk. hany EMIT efforts had been made to obtain its repqd, and ip bow few counties it had been sited upon with zeal and energy. When it was alto confidered how com plete had been the ignorance of the Parini 046eers with regard to its nature, and how much trouble the applications to the inflicts for its explanation had on cafioned, its failure in many parts of the country would create Inn life futprife. But now, fince Its nature had been more fully undernood, its produce had been gradually increafing, and we were entitled, from the opinions given by the harpotting Field Clf ficers, to capita that it warld Rol continue to ine creafe. He felt confident that nothing which she Right Hon. Secra:ary had tithe** Nam* foaw•pd, was et all calculated to ccunpenfatetbe.lefawhiibehe country would furtain by aht reptql of the AR I .cad he would venture to ptcsna, that ware hia plans adopted, it would be stecy in leis than a year *0 have recoutfe to fume imager meeftlee theft bad yet. been fallen upon, for fupplying that deficioacj hitter military arength, which ,his plans wmald produce.— There was a claufe in the Bill before the }lnure. to which he had the Ilrongefk objeainnt namely, that which went to indemnify pariflies from thole fines which they bad already incurred under the operation of the AO. This, be contended, would be equiva:ent to Parliament furrendering its autho. rity, would be incompatible with the dignity of the Legiflature, and would operate its A pernecioAs precedent in future. It was alfounjun, iaaliuscb an it placed the Olive and the negleaful patinae. exaMly on the fame level. In proof of this, he Mould ad duce the innatice of St. Mary.la.Bonne peril)) : Its qcota under the Referve AR had been 225, and under the prefent A t So; but 1% had sot railed, and indeed had not endeavoured to rails a angle man under either. On the other hand, Se. Anne's parilh, in the immediate vicinity, had found every man tilts quotas and thefe parifhes were now propofed to be placed precifely on the fame footing, and the letter inigbt confute itfelf as it bed could, under all its arognce and trouble, while the former gat off triumphant. • It went to remove every diliinainn battle* Aga. parithes that did their duty under the Asi of Parlia ment and Mote that negleaed it. He apologised to the Houk, for having taken up In much of their thee on this occafilan, but the fubjea id& was of ruck importance. and branched out into to soma! eitilifwar twos, that he did noefeel competent in do it juikialt without entering much into detail. On the Oak; he was convinced that no meafure which the Righi Hon. Gentleman could bring forward lynch/ prt an equal number of men with the Ara which it was propofed to repeal. indeed he could not oils Milli ners more embartairment than that they Mould go on with the experiment which bad been propo4ed.— If he and his friends *jibed to fee their menfures dirgraced, they could not more ereaually ;in their objcit, than LT withdrawing all oppolliton to tbek military plans. He bad at prefent confitseti to the civil adminifiration of the AR, but thould on* future occaflon Rate thole arguments which went tp I rapport the military part of its operation. • Mr. DENNIS BROWNE would not vote for the repeal of the Ad, becaufe he knew that, in the coon try with which he was ben acquainted, it had beep carried into effefl in st variety of ;seances. In Ire- land, during the lan (even weeks, it had produced at the rate of feventy•four men a week, and if naively carried into execution, it would every where Fadatie tine &fired number. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQIIEIit a in reply to the Right Hon.
