'Thpugh this system had not been acted upon long enough to enable him to say it was perfect, yet the v,arsisons abroad had become mote effective than ever they were in any former period. But as the casualties uhrrad %%ere constantly filled up by the reserve com panies at home, the non-cffectives were thrown upon the home establishment, instead of falling, as formerly, on the colonial garrisons.

The Staff of the lash Militia only was kept up. The Honourable Member, in referring to half-pay, referred, he supposed, Q:1 a recent regulation by which the sale of half-pay was permitted. Bat, in contradiction to the as.ertion the Hon. Gentleman, he would state that the half-pay, which in 1820 was 840,000 i. bad been reduced to 770.00 a as it stood at present. The House then divided.

They had claimed as a remuneration for .their services an es/eruption • from civil offices, but the Right Holt. Gentleman.had never thought he could comply with that request. -Although he bore testimony to the u:.lity of volurfteer yeomanry, he had uo ssish to encrease that-Corps, but had stated that it would - bi better for dime who were not effective to retire. Many, in consequence of that iutirnation bad retired, and the nuniber of yeomanry was greatly reduced. Ills general view . of the service had been, that volunteers should not be done away with, but that no unnecessary esorese should bejneurred, The reistence of this dinstitut " taco rendered it itunerP..,ry to call in regular troops when e • one rd to disturb the peace.

The Castile of Lyons contains an article on the late conspiracy in Russia, stating, that the Princess Taousesixot had *rltt►n to the Esstgatia, stating that if her husband perished on the scaf fold, he win die a sacred martyr of the most legitimate of causes. The Prince, on 'the other hand, is said to have written all the detaili of the conspiracy. It is said the Chiefs were bound by the most liightful oaths: that two of them, at the head of which was NOUILATInT. were to assassinate ALZIANDIS ; Sig, at the had of which was AbCHAtt. Onto 17, were to take charge of NICHOLAS, six of tilicnast., and six of COMAWMUN, That in one single day the whole Imperial Family was to perish, and the republic be proclaituni-4hat Micmac'. OaLorr, under the name of the First Consul, and Prince 0 ", as Second Consul, were to have the direction of affairs.

Above all, we deemed the cheering declarations of such eminent per mute as Mr.Trutser and Mr.BAßtso (than whom there are no Members of the Legislature better qualified to judge), that the resources of the country were in every respect unimpaiie4, that capital was.still abund ant--and money, though momentarily abstracted from circulaitionno vriy, deficient for every legitiniatcpur fose.of W 4014 liflventure to be a "testimony wimp , pottantlat thiritfing period, and so justly entitled to confidence, as 02 ineris the approbation of every getietous - leak tit, bP whitever sect or party in politics, who Jr .. the 44,4404 welfare.

Official salaries are now much higher, ant justly s because at the period alluded to,civil officers, almost of every description, derived nine-tenths of their enrolls menu from fees, the Government salary being little else than nominal. But those fees were not entirely abolished till'lBo2, when, of course, they were replaced by adequate salaries. An Honourable Gentleman pre pared to put back the're.ponsible and merino: inns fat c tionaties of Government, most ref them persons of edu cation, talents, and tried fidelity, and many of them enrolled, among the number of their own r;latives an acquaintance, to salaries of I:50. a year—less than the Members of Pailiament allow some of .their meni4l servants. Again it is An invariable effect of an exten sive and protracted war, requiring immense naval, military, and civil establi.hments, to entail .a heavy Pensi n List upon the subsequent peace. The Hon. Member for Aberdeen . complains that we have at this moment twenty-seven thousand Officers on the Half-pay List—as if it were possible to deprive them of the well-earned retirement for which in active service they encountered the. perils of inhos pitable climates, and braved the dangers of many a well-fought field. He is the last man to propose such a thing, and he is not ignorant that our half-pay and pension -list, at this moment, falls very little short of five millions a year, and that this sum is the reward conferred by the reiterated voice of Parliament, upon ' the meritorious servants of the country, who are no longer capable nor required to contribute their inva luable exettians for the public welfare. But the pensions of 1792 were not a fifth part of their present magnitude. How then is it possible to return to the same scale of of expenditure ? But it is urged, that if not the expense, yet that the number of troops composing the regular Army may be reduced to tre point at which they stood in the far. famed epoch of 1792. Before this question, however, eau be propounded, or rationally discussed, we must see whether the calls on the services of the 4rmy are at this etoment greater or less than they were in 179% It is idle, and an unprofitable waste of time, to say, that whatever the demand may be, no more than a give* amount of men shall be allowed i and that these.; haviag !km stationed as fir as they may go; the irschisir:isli re r taring the presence of additional forces, artha;tflematn 'unoccupied. Common sense tells us.that alearsisnnwitfch .can only man so many bastions, leaving the testolthe defences unprotected, may as well be withdrawn Altos.- Aber. The same faculty informs us,th it each period most provide for its own services according to times and - cir, cumstan:es, and that the number oEmen moat be pro portioned to the calls for them—not the calls to an arbitrary number of men. Ireland was not in 1792 in the same state as at present—but the peaceable and loyal inhabitants of that country cannot . lrkft to the paternal care of Captain ROCK. • . Our East and • West Indian Empire—our colonies, garrisons, arsenals, national and individual wealth, are all on a far *more extensive scale than in 1792. 'They cannot be left unprotected. Neither will any man of humanity or common understanding propose that we should now return to tl:e practice of 1792, which was to leave our brave countrymen, sent -on foreign stations, to end their days in far distant climates, with out the hope of ever re-visiting their native land ; yet to this we must come, unless there shall be a dispoiable force to relieve them at- short intervals ; a plan which has lately-been adopted by Ministers, with the utmost benefit and satisfaction to the service. This forenoon we received flanitstigh - Papert to the' 25th ult. and Dutch Paperkto"the 2d instant; the latter contain no political . .intelligence' •whateveri and the.. news of the former is chiefly confined to extraotairom the Journal of St. Petersburgh-to the lath, which con = tans a long list of .promotions, on account of the Secret Associations copied from the Vienth Jaffna's; and the details at great length of the funeral pygessinn of the Emperor A LIMANDER from Taganrog to ;Laura. The rEtersburgh Journal also contains an article which we sobjoin, in which too much praise is,given to Russia, and by fir too little to this country, for the overthrow of BONAPARTE, who, had it not been for the British fleets and armies, British resources, and Bt icish perse verance, might, and in all probability, would have been still on the Throne of France. The following is the article to which we allude : ST. PETERSBURG, FZIWIART 8. Our readers know with what profound grief krcign nations lestat the death of the Emperor Alexander. Their lean Ibistre . ‘een mingled with ours, and, in fact. the loss of =eh a Monarch could not fail to be felt by all his sconteniporaries, whose pride and mode, be was It must especially affect ;he;people of Eprope who succeeded, under his Auspices, in throw ing of an odious yoke, and who sub.,equentl,) found in his magnanimous policy,- the most certain pledge for this maintenance or peace and *general tran. Accordingly the Allied Courts oow ease , to. da honour to the memory if the 41:471i)es or Alexan let "OKI 'to the last moment remained the derository their unbounded confidence, by the unanimous expres sion of the most affectionate sentiments towards his august successor. That Sovereign, whose faithful andilevoted friendship to ourteloved Monarch resisted all the storm; of the times, and came triumphant ont of the most cruel trials,. the King of Prussia, was the first to choose his son, Prince William, to carry to the Court of Rossi:46e Rx peessions of his profound affliction. Orgill. of Vie . same sentiments, their Royal Highnesses 'the tranti Duke of M-cklenhurgh Schwerin, the Mirgravine Leopold of Baden. and the Prince of Oynge, arrived soon after him. The Pi ince. of Orange, in p:rtticular, . so dear to the late Emperor, who had in very lately received flesh proofs of his inestimable ft iend •Itip,whorn the fatal news stuck so soddenly, and who was Over whelmed by his own grief, as well as that of sort, then incess of Orange,rtturns to scenes consecrated by his recollections, to pay the last homage to the great 4oteirch, and to partake the inexpressible regret of the august Family, who re the whole world take part in its mourning, On the,other hand the Emperor of Austria, the oldest and firtnett.ally of Russia, the personal friend of Alexander, has expressed his sentiments in the most striking manner, by sending the Archduke Ferdinand of Este, his near relation, who gained such distinguishad.gliscy Bt, tie campaign of 1805. Lastly, the British Governmeot .bas proved,,,, in like manner.
