V Sit W. LTENIT Paid, that every man in a had heard it aliened, that there could be any idea that the difcipline of the Militia can be equal to that of the regular troops of the line. Mr. Nost fpoke to order, and laid, he conceived the Right Hon. Gentleman was not fpeaking to the point, in thus defcanting on the defeas of the Militia, when the propofition before the Hoyfe was xnetclv as to the bounty money, and whether it fhould be two or four guineas ? The SPEAREI gave it as his opinion, that the Right Hon. Gentlemen was firialy in order. Mr. WINDHAM proceeded by uhferving, that at a time fo truly eventful, and fo pregnant with dan ger as the prefent, it was faculiarly incumbent on the Government of this country to have a large force ready at command, and that force, he infili -ed, fhould be of fuch a nature, that it might be I called nut to as at a moment's notice, offenfively as well as defenfively; that by the conllitutional formation of it, the Militia could not be made to .aft offenfively againil an enemy, by being remota if the country. If, therefore, we had a large force, ; in cafe of the enemy's attacking us, it would be impoffible for him to tell, whether it may not be ufed offenfively as well as defenfively ; but if they know that a very great part of it is Militia, and therefore only defenfive in its nature, he knows what he has to contend u ith here, and that none can be fent to annoy him in his own poireffions. Mr. Wattacs (poke to order. He raid, the pre tent cosmos' was 11 ,, C, whether we were to have ! Militia or not ? nor, whether it (hall be railed by bounty ? but, whether that bounty -(hall be two guineas or four ? He objeaed, however, to the prefent argument of the Right Hon. Gentieman, becaufe it was a difcuflion on the defeas of our Mi litia, which at a period of fo much danger-- Sir WILLIAM PULTSNCY rote to order, and laid, be did fo becaufe the Right Hon. Gentleman had advanced a great many arguments againll the mi litia, in none of which he agreed with hini. He wiffied, therefore, he fhoe'ld goon, that a fair dif cuffion of the fubjeft might take place, that the Houfe may not feparate, or any individual go away with fuch imprellons on their minds as the Right Hon. Gentleman had endeavoured to efiab Efts againll the Militia. Mr. WINDHAM again proceeded, and infilled that in what he had advanced he was well found ed, and that it was of the utmoti importance that we lhould boldly look our dangers in the face ; and, above all, that we fhould have an effeaive force capable of atiing with promptitude and vi gour both on the offenfive and defenfive. The queftion as no lets than, Whether we fhould have a Constitution or no? The danger, he in filled, was molt glaring, prating, and imminent, and therefore profpeetive arguments were abfo lutely neceffary. The Members of the prefent Ad. ininillration mull look profpeaivsly, or they arc not fit to govern in fo alarming a otitis. It is not right to confider it as a question only of wen norny, Whether the Nfilitia is to be called out I , n emerg:ncy at lets expence than an equal number of regular forces. It Mould, on the contrary, be confidered, that this is a mere military engine ; and, as Inch, he thought it much lets effeaual titan the other. The Houfe ought to confider the dif ference of value weighed against that of price ; and, in Co doing, he would, for one, rather give Ile guineas for a regular foldier than two for a !militiaman ; for he thought the value of a regular regiment beyond that of a militia one was more than four guineas a man. Betides, this mode of 'iving bounties to militia men, cut up the recruit- in; of the regular army root and branch. Similar divifiont, he laid, might happen in France as had heretofore taken place there; and, in loch an event, a firong cffeaive force ready, to aft pomp:. ?y and offenfively, would be actually neceffary, and would be the torch means of giving peace and per raanent fecurity to this country. He wished that 'Milted of Militia, regular reglinents (Mould be railed in Ireland, as he was certain thefe would be the fafeß means of its defence. He ridiculed the idea of attending to 'what a Merchant fays in the City, or a Country Gentleman in another place ; and averred, that any man who did fo, was unde ferving a I :ce in his Majefly's Government at fuch a crifts of danger as the prefent. He begged to be heard a few words in anfwer to whathad been Paid by the Hon. Gentleman, who was the fecAnd to interrupt him (Mr. Wallace), and Paid, that it was fonaewhat curious, that when a meattre was under contiderition, which called for great ex/ . tons, he (koala be told, he mutt not take nod, of what that exertion eontifii. Ile infißed, that we Should not lay out our means and money in a mi litia, which is let's efficient titan a regular force; and he had ufed the ;hove arguments in or der to enter his proteß, as far as in has power, againit the meature. The SICRITAIre at WAR Could gotfit gill to hear fuch extraordinary fentiments delivered, as thole which hadbeen jail now offered to the Houle. Ile concurred with the Hon. Baronet, who laid he withed the Right Hon. Gentleman fhould not be flopped on a point of order only, hut that himidf and other Gentlemen might have an opportanity ' of anfwering fuch opinions. The Right lion. Gentleman was in office at a time when the Mili tia was encreafed ; and whim the f•; Rem was fairly ' before the Houle be made no objeaions. The Right lion. Gentleman lays that the Militia are interior to he regiillr ; that is a matter generally Known. In the year 1780, however, the M,tiiia faired the capital ; and in tail war they proved themlelves an extremely 11:*etol body, particula•ly Ito kith Militia, V 11 0 almost emit ely oriath,:d the frifli rebellion. The Right Hon. Gentleman La , : infinuated, that he could not trust them, but they Ltd performed aJtions of the sornoll gallantry,fiich as would do hononr to the mot! eaperienced vete rans, in an important expcditinn, where the force was principally m• n taken from the Militia, and feet ahroad almoß immediately. licacknou hedged that the Militia were only meant as an auxiliary to tl,c regidars ; and therefore &fired that the nre in the Country might not be difheartened by tlic Right Hon. Gentleman. Such general obfervations ought to be made only on general principles, that is, where there was a general quef tion before the Houfe. county was not ouly born to till the earth, hot alio to defend it ; he therekre thought the princi ple of a Militia force perfeltly cr.rre&, as it kept a body at all times in readiriels. Thy- Right lion. Gentleman cannot forget that in AlPellC'd there were Militia Men who beat us, and he had no doubt that we, under fimilar ciicumaances, would make a glorious flruggle. Mr. WINDHAM explained: General TAR zeros laid, that at a moment when we were threatened by a reliefs and ambitiou. neighbour, he thought there was no time to hea tate. Could not, he laid, 15,000 be confidered as equal to to,ooo Sir LAWRFNCR PARSONS expreffed his opinion, that the queltion, as it lhould be taken was, whether we timid avail ourfelves in the prefent erifis of the actual Rate of the LTA militia, fuch as it offered itfelf to the view of Government ? and not, whether the Militia eflablifhment was, in an abarad confideration, objeCtionable ? If gentle. men railed fcruples that the enemy was not to he mct by the Militia, he would Idence thofe fcruples by fads. When an attempt was made by the ene my to land in Ireland at Bantry Bay, the Irifh Militia evinced a loyalty and fpirit which were the theme of general admiration. They were ready to meet, with tteadinefs and intrepidity, the force that threatered the country ; nor did the argu ments ufed by the Right Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Windham) againfl their inefficiency, ever occur to them. They were, in fad, employed in a very dif ferent way ; for they were engaged in fharpening their bayonets and in choofing the bell flints for the attack. The Militia of Ireland volunteered for the general lervice of the Empire, and in fupport of that pofition he urged the inflance of their serv ing in Guernfey during the left war. He did not think that it was altogether prudent to (peak the language that had been fpoken by the Right Hun. Gentleman, during the prefent crifis, of the in efficiency of the Militia; not that he thought any militia-man, who felt for the honour of his coun try, would be difmayed by what had hen advan• ced by that Right Hon. Gentleman. The country did not depend upon the regular army, or upon the Militia exclufivey,but upon the zeal and united exertions of the inhabitants. Lord KENSINGTON Paid, it was the firft time he had ever troubled t'le. Houfe on any queltion, and it was not his intention to trefpafs on their time for many minutes. The only inducement he had in addrelling them, was a mitflatement made by the Hon Gentleman behind him (Sir W. Pulteney), p who had laid, his Hon. Friend (Mr. Windham) had made an attack on the militia of the two coun ' irks. This, he was lure, was not the cafe ; his Han. Friend had, by no means; Lid any thing offenfive of that body of men ; he had taken vb. jettions to the milieia on general principles, and offered arguments to prove, that a dilpotable and regular force was of more importance to the coun try than the augmentation of the Militia could poffibly ; whether his Hon. Friend's arguments would convince the Houfe of the propriety of his pofstion would be fern by the vote of the Houle. Yet he mull be permitted to fay, from Tome know ledge in Military affair s, that he concurred with his Hon. Friend in fume points, and thought that a regular difpofable force would be more ferviee• able to Ireland than the Militia. At the fame time lit had no objection to a Militia in either country, yet he thought a regular difpofable force was better for either an offcntive or defenlive purpcfe than a Militia was, as the regular force was generally better conflituted and difciplined for aaual fervice, than a Militia could pofbly be. In proof of his affertion he begged the Houfe to call to their recol letlion,the Militia that were fent to Holland, whole exertions proved their defeelive power, and evinced a want of difcipline. This was well known to Government, and had they been all regular troops, there is no doubt but they would have made a better figure. The CHANCELLOR of the Exciter:mita laid, that the expedition to Egypt was principally fupplied from the Militia; and it was the opinion of the belt military men that we could not do better than by grafting a few Militia on a body of regulars. An • Hon. Friend he had the pleafure of feting now wear the uniform- of that regiment, had the honour of, by his influence aid command, flopping the pro. grefs of a body of Irifh Militia, then engaged with the French, at a time when he thought it neeeffa- ry to Atop theta; and thould it be raid, in the hear ing of fuels a man, that the Militia was an ineffi cient force ? Sir W. Po t.zuzz explained, that what be meant in alluding . to the American Militia was, that as they had heat us on American ground, fu would Englilh Militia but French Regulars, if on Englifh 'ground. Mr. Nona Paid, that he had the hoisoor to raife a regiment of Fencibles during the lag war,- and that the few orders he received from that Right Hon. Gentleman's office befpoke neither the ut molt politenefs from that office, nor the greaten cordiality was then exifling in Adminiaration. bir Eras COOTS laid, he had the honour to command a body, confilling in a great meafure of thofe taken immediately from the Militia into antral fen-ice ; and becould bear ample tetlimony to the bravery and exemplary condue of thole men— that they had eflablifhed their charmer as loyal men, and moll excellent foldiers. General MAITLA ND paid the highest compli ment to the bravery, zeal, and endurance of the 1. ifh ; and nhferved 11134 however, they mug he confeffedly inferior to the regukirs, yet to nfr them with the troops of the hoe, lie thought them a moll ferviceable and effeeive force. Mr. Wicsaaroar I laid, he only conlidered the army as a two-edged wearsao ; and that this was confidering one fide of that initrument. Perhaps it was the Hon. Gentleman's fopdnefs for expedi tions that made him not like that body, n being inapplicable, in a limited degree, to that fort of fervice. Mr. At.rxavort Paid briefly, that the Militia had a regular tyflcm. and could he immediately called out. lie allced. was it wife at fuch a pc. riod as the prefcnt to create difunion or make in vidious comparifnn Mr. Wit.t.taft ELLIOTT raid that we were now f"c• • •• , ..l' to rave tSsos• - .

Hon. Member in his ahf-nce. Mr. ELLIOTT iefurrcti. He I ihe wilt) -.1 to be an alarmia on this fobjefl ; and deell,e 1 .1; it was his opinion that if a beard of Fiend, rat Officers had been fitting G.r the on they could not have formed a v.-oi to plan. Lord CASTLFRFACII f id, that the pier,; t quell eon was only, whether we lhould give (n - n guineas a man, for the railing °la in Ire. land ; he was well convinced the coantry tould not be fo effectually defended without a Militia. as by the combination of the two • ••o • f -.••• I The Adjutant General of Ir e l an d I 1.! tinA of a ballot in fome counties having •••• I tie re cruiting fervice; we had no fimilar complaint re fpeding counties whet,: a bounty had been paid. Befidcs, he thought this mode lcfs onerous than that of providing 3 Inhflittite. Lord CoLs thought highly of the Militia cha ruder, and raid that, if the French w ere to l a r k !, I they would find the Hill Militia havF Wilmer, as (harp, and nerves as thong, as any other tri ~ pc. Colonel DACWLLL cordidered that the Militia I was in many enhances to the rcgnlars, as the mer- I chant fervice to the King's navy ; for, when once a man had a red cost on, he would not readily throw it off. Mr. HILLY ADDINCTON laid, the argument which had been ufed, that the prefent meafure would be injurious to the Recruiting Service, had been conclufively anfwered by his Right Hon. Relation. In fad there was a conclutive anfwer to it in the nature of things, as it was well known that many perfons would prefer a larger bounty and enlilling for lie, whilß many alfo would pre fer a (mall bounty and a limited period of fervice. He had held a pretty high fituation in a Fencible Regiment, part of which he had himfelf railed, and he did not know any individual of it who would recruit ,• and even when it was dilbanded, not one fifth of the whole became regular foldiers. -lVith refped to the Militia, he would alt a diffingui(hed Officer (Sir Eyre Coote) who had fpoken in this debate, whether a Regiment of Militia in fervice at the period of the expedition to Holland, and fent I thither, would not ferve with as much courage and difcipline as any other? The Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Elliot) as well as his Right Hon. Friend (Mr. Windham) had taken a comparative view of the militia and the regulars,butin fuch a way as to give all the merit to the latter ; and he confetTed fome comment ad been made upon the Militia, which excited unlafinefs in his mind. If the prefent was, as had been Rated by a Right Hon. Gentleman, a period of greater danger than any during the late War, why depreciate one of our ben fupports? He could not help thinking that they ffiewed a want of conliftency. The Right Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Windham) had thrown out a charge againit his 'Majelty's Government, of a want of profpeflive will:Ions, and another Hon. Gentleman (Mr. El tot) had charged them with fabmiffive and pnfil ' lanimoas condadts he defied thole Hon. Gentle men to produce a tingle iodance to prove thole charges, and till they did that, inch charges mull be confidered as mere random afiertions. Mr. ELLIOTT, in explanation, Laid, he (Poke ge nerally, and declared hinthlf to be of opinion, that the general conded of Mini!ter, was fuch as to in dicate fubmilEvenefs to France. Mr. WIt4DHAM fpoke in explanation. He never meant that there thould be nu Militia at all ; he only alluded to the proportion of it, compared to the handing army, which bethought much more efrential to the defence of the country. Mr. Dawson obferved, that it was rather ex traordinary the oppofition to this meafure fhould have originated with two Gentlemen only who had filled the fituadons of Secretaries at War and who, while they were in office, mull have known the great and important ferviccs performed by the Militia of Ireland. He would tell there Hon. Gen. denten, if they did not know it, that the Militia of Ireland, combined with the Yeomanry, did more fervice there than any other force. It was to them the country was indebted for the fuppreffion of fhe rebellion. He could not adduce a ilronger proof , of what he advanced, than by pointing to an Ho nourable Friend of his then prefent (Colonel Ve raer), whole heroifm at the head of his regiment of Militia, would be recorded In the annah of his country ; and of whom the French General lium l.bert was heard to fay, that he was the moil for- , midable opponent he had met with during the whole of his progrefs through Ireland. The quellion was now loudly called for. The refolution was agreed to, and a bill ordered. The bill was afterwards brought in, read a &It, and orkred to he read a fccond time to morrow. The other Orders of the Day were poiiponed, and at ten o'clock the Houle adjourned. NOTTINGHAM ELECAN COMMITTEE. The Chairman of this Committee having mule hitreport to the linure of Commons, we feel our.
