P Mr. Secretar rWINDH Ahi did not cape& to have I hear.l Itch utajefliim as that flared by the Honourable Baronet. The nbjeft of the Bill was merely to pro- I •ide that certain allowances which it was thought I expedient to grant to certain defcriptions of Officers of the Line, Mould not under the operation of the ' Claufe in the Militia AC - 1‘ be extended to fnme dere' ip. ti" of Othzers of Militia. Field Officers of Militia were repined to pofful a qualification of property, which removed any neceffity of extending the allowances.' The fubalterns for obvious reafims, were to have the allowances, but the fame realm did not apply to the cafe of Captains and Field Officers. Colonel WOOD thought his Honourable Friend, the Hon. Baronet, had mitt aken the nature of the meafure of the Right Honourable Secretary, and that therefore, his objetlions were not in point. Mr. PF:RC VAL did not mean to oppofe the mo tion for leave to bring in the Bill, bin at the Caine time declared himfelf not fat isfied with the principle on which it profeffed to be founded. Leave we , then given, and immediately after the SECRETARY at WAR brought up the Bill, which was read a firft time. On the motion that the Bill be read a fecund time, Sir W. ELFORD role jolt to let hirnfelf right with the Hnufe,and to thew his Hon. Friend oppolite, •hat he had not miff sliest the nature of the Bill. He had not adverted to the allowances that had been made tome time fiace, of hall-pay to Subalterns of Militia, to induce thein to engage in the fervice. This Bill was to deprive Militia Field Officers of the additional pay, which was to be given to the Regulars. Whilft they gave their time and efforts to the fervice, he law no reafon why they lhould not receive the pay. No great Officer of the Crown gave up his falary becaufe be had a large private fortune. The SECRETARY at WAR Paid, that the notice which he had given was, that an increafe of pay fhoold be given only to Officers of a particular rank, and in certain cafes, as i. was exprcffed in the Bill. This was not exaftly a meafure for a general increafe of pay, therefore, and the Hon. Baronet might as well complain thst it was not extended to Colonels. Mr. PERCIVAL laid that from what he now um derflood the B:II, to be, it gave much greater powers to Miniflers that: what were neceffary for the obje& which they had in view. The law at prefent was, that the Militia, as to pay, &fluid be ezattly on the fame footing with the infantry in the Regulars. But now it appeared,• that, in certain cafes, an increafe was to be allowed to the one and not to the other. But the particular (Nett was to give the increafe of pay to the Mititia Subalterns, and to withhold it from the other officers. 'There wai no filch particular dif. tinetion however in the Bill. Betides, the principle -would certainly go this length, that no pay fhould be allowed to the rapes ior Militia Officers at all, and the meafore could not he defended on any other ground. This might be a good principle, but it certainly was one which dere, ved Come confideration - before it was eflablillied, and therefore to propofe it at thi• late period of the Seffion was not very fitting.' Mr. WINDHAM flatedohat this would not af feet the Officers now fettling in the Militia, as they Were not put on a work footing than when they en tered, and this went only fo far as to fay, that they had no claim to a participation in the or/spored in. creak. But the Learned Gentleman (Need to the principle. But the principle was not what he had Slated it to be. It was not that the Militia Officers ought to have no pay at all, but upon the plaip and' obvious one, that different kinds of fervice ought to be differently rewarded. The pay, it was true, had been the fame hitherto, but was that a reafon why it fliould not he varied if there (tmid appear good eat& for it A certain proportion had been efla-1 bliffied between the pay of office's of different ranks., But that ton might be varied, if there was rearms for it. As to the Militia Offi-ers above a certain rank, they mull Lave private fortunes, and could it be contend-I ed, that becaule you gave an increafe of pay to offi cers in the army, whore fei vices might be acknow ledged to he of a fupetior nature, who r.:ight have no private fortune, and might be obliged to depend &lel) , on their pay fur the eflablifhment of their fu. tare lives, you ought, therefore, to allow the fame in creafe to perlens in citcumflances altogether diffe. rent ? The thing was prepnflerous on the face of it. lie then adverted to the additional ezpenfe which an allowance of additional pay to the fuperinr Militia officers would ore trim:, and contended that this ought to be avoided, finer thete was no neceffity for it. Lord CAS I'LEREAGH Paid, that a badge of in. fericrity would thus befiled um the Militia Officers much more hurtful to their feelings titan the want of the pay s and they would confider this as the precut. for of tante future mellffure Rill further to degrade them. The Might Honourable Secretary himfelf his' recognized the principle of an equal pay, by giving it to the fubalterns. The Militia Captains might be equally in 'want of the pay, becaule the qualification legniied was only 2001. a year. The taving.altugether would not be more than y,cool. ••• Bill fispprife the increafe of •pay thoold be allowed lo the Captains, the Caving then would he quite trifling. The rum I& the increafe of pay to the regular field officer., was only ifianonl. The Militia were in rim. hers alsc tit nre third of the regulars, and the favirg confequently would be only the third of t 6,0001.— fle celled upon the Noble Lnrd oppofite (Temple) to fuppott the cattle of the Militia cn the prcfent oc &ion, as ht had done at forme perinds. Mr. ALEXANDER Rated the influence %hid) thtir fitnation pave to militia Colonels, who poffeffed advantages which could not be ?offered by the regu. tar (.7 nels: • • ' Lord CASTLEREAGH oliferved, that if the linnourahl. Gentleman had looked at !the ellimate, be would have found that the additional pay did rot fateful to the Colonels in either cafe. • Lnrd 'IIMPLE etpleftad Rig with that his Right liff•monrahle - Friemt whuld recon fi der his Ifpost the ptincipk which Its bad noted, different par L•ed the army Well' might harm different claims. As to the Culotte!, of 'Militia, they had no claim sabstever. The Field Officers had not much ; but in to the Captains he mutt • really intitt upon the pay bei n g es e,..icd to them, heeau'e, its officers could not he rotit.d with the proper qualfficatintu, power b td !..t.ly g veil to accept of them without, and j nutty bad !welt therefore trarni ted without the qua- ' I:st Wl:r7tDiriAM laid that this would bea more plow ‘1; . 1-4c firt is Coarbittee. • * • ) i 1 1 1 i 11 Lord DE BLAQUIERE hoped that there er•ald4 be no difference of opinion as to the neccdi!y of ex.! tending the addith.nal allowance to the Captains oft the Militia. But he thought the dilliation extreme. Iv invidious, even as applied to the Fie!d Officers. He was forpriled that this period of the Sctlion finiuld he chofen aor the introduelion of Inch a meafure, when the Militia Officers had left their duty in this Honfe, to go and difeharp,e more ;netting duties, and he hoped, therefore, that it would be reconfidered. Colonel CRAUFURD could nut Re why themes. lure timid be objected to, except it was wi►h a view to render his Right lion. Friend unpopular with the Militia and Volunteers, a purpok for which the Ho ' nourable Gentleman on the other fide hadiaboored with great perfeverance, but he believed with little fuccefs. The Cavalry were excluded from this in creafe of pay, and fo were the Guards, upon the prin ciple that they could go on very well without any addition, while, in the cafes where it was allowed, these was a necellity tot it. It was to prevent meri. toriotts officers from being put in prifon, or being forced to quit the fervice from the abfolute inability of milling upon their pay. If there was no com plaint on account of the Cavalry and the Guards, where was the ground for complaint in the cafe of the Militia General TA RLETON knew, from his own obfer vation, that the militia were brought to a very high Rate of diicipline, and this was owing to the officers They were fit to combat with any regular troops againft any enemy whatever ; and when there was fo much merit on the part of the officers, it was hard to make this invidious diflinClion. After a few obfer vations from Colonel WOOD, the Bill was ordered to be read a ad time to-marrow. VoLUNTIII OFFIC[If. On the motion of Mr. WINDHAM. the Hnufe refnlved itklf into a Committee on the Volunteer Offieerr Bill. The SPEAKER having left the Chair, Alderman COMBE followed up the principle for which he had formerly contended. that rank Ihould not be taken from thole who already enjnyedit, moved that the words (hall have been" Ihould be left out, for the purple of inferring the words " (hall here after be." The effeft of this would be, that the pro vifions of the Bill Mould extend only to thofe who might hereafter became Colonels of Volunteer Corps. Mr. ADDINGTON Paid that he felt no unplea fent feeling whatever at the idea of being command. ed, in cafe of his Corps being called out for fervice, by any Regular Field Officer. On the contrary, he was glad that he was relieved from the refponfibility that might attach to him, in cafe it fhould have been his fortune to have commanded a Field Officer of the Regulars. This was the feeling of every Volunteer Colonel with whom he hid converted on the fobjeCt. Mr. STURGES BOURNE faid,that it wag a very different thing to confide, whether this rank ought' ' to have been given originally, and to take it away when given. This was not a new thing. It elated when the Right Hnnnurable Gentleman was Secre tary at War. The kighelt rank at prefent was Lieu. tenant Colonel, but then there were full Colonels of Volunteers, with the rank of regular Colonels in the Army. nt fuppofe there Ihould be a regular Major in a Volunteer corps, it might turn out that, in cafe of alba' ferrite, the Major Ihould command his own Colonel. Old officers in the Volunteers might alto be commanded by inferior officers in the army. Lord TEMPLE explained, that there was no danger of a Major commanding his own Colonel, as his rank was like brevet rank in the Army, and not in the particular regiment. General TARLETON contended that no evil whatever could refult from allowing the Volunteer Officers to retain their rank. The Guards enjoyed a different rank from the other parts of the army, yet though they had fitted in America, in Flanders, and in miter places, no inconvenience had been felt—they had been brigaded by themfelries. The Militia, the Volunteers, and the Army, might go on in the fame manner without jealoufy. Be would mix them all without any apprehenlion. He would have no op prehenfion that the Volunteers would turn their backt, but they might be too rani. How was this to be con reeled difcipline. The country would have to regret the retarding of the difcipline of the Volun ' teers by the meafurcs of the. Right Hon. Gentleman. If they had been permitted to have gone on, they would have been fitforany duty. Sir CHARLES PRICE fail, that in every Rep taken with regard to the Volunteers, fomething was done to degrade them. He adverted to the manner in which the Volunteers had at fitit come forward, and thought that they Wei ved to be complimented in- Read of being degraded. Lord DE BLAVIERE approved of the Bill, and thought that leitous mitchief would arife in the moment of fer vice, unit-:, its provilions were adopted. It would not then be proper, that the Volunteers ['mould be commanded by thole who had never fern fervice. An Honourable General had talkcd of the Guards. but they had cummantled up to their rank in the dully. and no ioconvenience arofe from this circumfiance. Mr. WINDHAM obferved, that be had done what it was perfeily proper fhould be dope, namely, put', the Volunteers under the command of military men. And this was regarded ass degradation and in infult. He hoped all Lis ;dolts 4.the Volunteers mould be I confidered of the fame nature. Suppore the enemy landed. ought not the Volunteers, would they not with in Poch a cafe, to he commanded b r men of ex. per knee ? The Commanding Officers of the Volun teers were very reipettable men in every point of view, but they had not expelicnce, and it was not proper they thould command regular Officers in their I, own p l ofeili. m . He adverted to the cafe of every other profellion. Would a lawyer, for intlance, be direaed by a perfon who knew nothing about law, or who had no experience ? The lion. Alderman (aid, that no Volunteer Officers ought in future to rank above regular Field O ffi cers. - Brit they ought never totave done In; and he only correaed what had, been improperly done, and what might be eddy correaed. The rank was not taken away for any bad condo& but bemire it ought never u. have been given ; and where. then, was die ligma ? As to the feelings at the Volunteer Of f icers, he &wild fuppofe that the worth hurt to their feelings would be to allow them to hold what they ought not In have. lie explained that he hitsfelf had been teetined as Cokeel of die 1 Brigade. and not as one of a particular corps, In that that was no inconfiltenci in his own east nor nay ground for an inlipid joke of a Learned Gentleman over the way. But, however, he had let h pals, as the matter at the time was not worth explanation, and he only mentioned it now becaufe it came in his way. Mr. PERCIVAL Paid that he had only argued from the feel as it appeared by the papers on the table, and if there was a mittake, it was owing to his friends in office. The corps, however, was us good a corps as one without officers could be expected to he. He believed it had not even a conllable (a laugh ' ) hut it appeared that at the time the Right Honour. able Gentleman knew fo little about his own corps, that it was not till now that he wit enabled to cot reel the millake. But the Right Honourable Gen tleman did not 'adopt his own principle to its full ex tent, ntherwife it would apply to the Militia. He cote lt rather to have recalled the Cornraillions of the Volunteer Colonels. He was now reducing them to the very thing which he defcribed them to be- They were now really •• the painted cherrie s ." Nothing could lower the officers more in the eyes of the coun try than allowing them the title of Colonels without the effative rank. .. - Mr. LONG Paid that if the Right Honnurable Gentleman favoured the Volunteers, they welt very ungrateful, for they did not give him credit for it. He eked whether there were any regulations for do ing away the allowances of pay and cloathing, a, it was undertiond to be the intention to fuffer the Vo• lunteers to moulder away ?.' General TARLETON faid that if the Volunteer Officers had eagerly put themfelves forward, there might be fame grounds for the meafure ; but a Lieu tenant Bayley. who had ferved at the Havannah with great applaufe, and who now commanded a corps of tour thottfand Volunteers, had muddily flood afide when they were infpeaed. Of this corps, Captain Gore, whore Cervices in America would be well re membered, was the Major, and yet thefe men Wet to be degraded. Mr. CHARLES WYNNE admitted that there were Officers of experience, hut they were particular exceptions. It would be unpleafant in time of fervice, for inexperienced Volunteer Officers to command re ' gular Field Officers, and this feeling had beets ea veiled by the Colonel of the Light Horfe Volunteers, is whole favour an txception night - be made if in any cafe. ' Mr. RYDER wifhed that the Right Honourable Gentleman had condefeended to Rawer his Hon. Friend's quellion as to the pay and clothing, as it might be neceffary to have a dear tintlerflyiding on this fubjea with a view to the fubjea which was to come on tn-morrow. Mr. WINDHAM faid, that there was no occafion for his anfwering what he had Rated over and over spin, efpecially as the question was Aired with a view to the motion of to-morrow, the nature of which had not been communicated to him nor to the Houle. This might be a aratagem of war 2gaillft his Majeny's Ml:tillers, but it was not very candid to the Houk. _ Mr. LONG fsid, that it was hard that he (hould fuffer for the fault of another. Mr. WINDHAM raid s that he certainly had an inclination to anfwer merely an account of the motion for tomorrow ; but he had before diftsnaly (Wed, that tbe pay and clothinz was to be taken away from fuch Volunteers as flinuld enter in future. The Amendment was then negatived.—Report to morrow. INDIA lIIIDCIPT, On the motion of Lord MORPETH. the Houle refolved into a Committee, to take inicrconlideration the Financial Affairs of India, Mr. Hobhoole in the _ Lord MORPETH rote, for the purpofe of bring ing forward thelndia Budget for the sear, and to fubmit to the coufideration of the Committee a (late ment of the Financial Affairs of the Ealt India Com pany, a fubjeft at all times of high importance to this country, but never m , .re In at any period than at the ;ardent moment. In all the wide cztended affairs of Government, there was not one which more particularly called for the vigilant fuperintend ance and fcrutiny of Parliament than the fyftean of finance upon. which In materially depended the per manent profperity of any Government ; and though the flatement he thould this day have the honour to fubmit to the Committee would not be of a nature fo very flattering as had been made of late years by fome of his predeceffors in the department he had the honour to fill, yet having devoted the !bort period fence he had filled his prelent Inflation, in endeavour. ing, with the utmolt affiduity, to make himfelf ac; quainted with the real Hate of the Company', affairs, both at home and in India, with refpee to their debts, their revenues and commerce, as well as the various charges upon their Government, and trade in all its departments, he Ihould lay before the Com , mittes the molt clear and candid flatement he was enabled to make, leaving it for the Committee to decide upon the tenor of that flatemenr, and the motions he fhould have the hrnour cf founding thereon. He felt it unneceffary to trerpars longer. upon the attention of the Committee, and Ihould now proceed to his prnpofed detail, refeering to tin &nu ments on the table in Inpport of the feveral points of his Itatement.
