FIF2H kEPORT; OF TUT: CONIMISSIONLES APPOINTED TO ENGIVIRE AND EX2I,3IINN INTO TIIN PUBLIC NXIIiNDITURE. ARMY MI DICAL DEPARTMENT. (Continued from Tsieeday': Paper.) It appears from the inquiries which we have made respecting the full pay part of the establishment, that with the exception of a purveyor employed in the of fice as an assistant to the Surgeon General, and of two • deputies stationed at the York and Depot Hospitals, the whole of both descriptions of purveyors are em ployed on foreign service. The particular duties, therefore, of both classes, and the mode in which ' they are executed, fall more properly under the con sideration of the General Hospital system, and to that division of the subject which relates to the ex penditure in the Medical Department. The only observation which we shall make in this place is, that when the rank of purveyor was no longer considered as a step in promotion in the medical line, it is vet? questionable whether the same rank and pay should have been continued to those who, it is admitted by the Inspector General, are now mere storekeepers or stewards. It will be proper to notice in this place what is not particularly distinguished in this full pay list, that a new rank, and increased pay of five shillings per diem, may be given at the discretion of the Surgeon General, to any one belonging to the classes before ea amerated, and even to an Hospital Mate, by in vesting him with the name of Principal Medical Offi cer. A medical olicer, so entitled, whatever his previous rank may have been, becomes immediately the Chief of the Staff of the Hospital to which he is attached, and supersedes in controul all his former seperiors. This title and pay were first established, as we learn from the Physician and Surgeon General, at the commencement of 1798, by the authority of the Secretary at War and Commander in Chief; and they state, that, from the extreme inconven 7 ctre e which arose from the frequent sudden removals of the superintending Medical Officers of II ospitals to foreign duties, and of leaving the charge of the sick and stores to the next in rank, who had every thing to learn, it was thought expedient for this, and for other reasons, to give superior title and authority to a proper person from any rank, appointed to manage and d:rect the concerns of these hospitals. The no mination of the persons who were to have this addi tional pay and rank, is stated to have been in the board collectively, until the regelation of the fith of March 1798, wh:n it devolved en the Surgeon Gene rel. As this nomination is confined to the General Hospitals, of which only two now remain, we shall make no observation on the alledged rceson fer re commending this rank, nor on the dissatisfaction which, it is ohrions, must have been created by such an inco trams appointment. The half-pay list, it will be seen, is also consider ahle ; the number on it being ninety-four, and their. pay amounting . to nearly seventeen thousand pounds per aantun. Fifty-seven of that number have been allowed to retire on account of length of service, ill-' beelth, or infirmity ; four of them have been dismis sed, but are allowed half-pay seven are considered as ireeicient ; three receive half-pay because their renew has been abolished ; seven have been placed on the half-pay by order of the Commander in Chief, or Secretary at War ; and there are eleven whose ser.-ices are not at pressent required : we conclude, • thcrefote, that the three last of these classes, making tsstnty-one, are liable to be again called into service. It is one of the general rules laid down in his Ma- j2sty's warrant of 12th March 1799, that the half pay list should be first resorted to fur the supply of ail o.ficers of the " Hospital Staff." And the Sur gt-iit General and Inspector General state, that they observe this in the promotion recommended by them, N'.'.‘:s.ever efficient officers can be obtained from the We doubt, however, whether the rule has been c:iserved so strictly as it ought to have been, or whe th:r new appointm.2nts have not been recommended at times when the half-pay list should have furnished the requisite officers. The subject appears to have attracted the attention of his Royal Highness the Ct.mman,ier in Chief in ISM, in consequence of the recommendatitin of the Surgeon General that three Assistant Inspectors, cite Surgeon, one Attothecarv, and one Deputy Purveyor should be placAl on half pay. ' On this occasion the Secretary at \Var was in fia-nted, " His Royal Highness could help ob serving that frequent promotions are recommended by Mr. Keate in the Surgeon General's department, for which his Royal Highness does not Fee the neces sity, when others of the same rank are to he placed on half-pay." This intimation of his Royal Highness being communicated to Mr. Keate by the Secretary at War, Troduced :m answer, in which he assigns the di;Terence of time between the recommendations fir promOtion and those fin- half-pay, together with the motives for each recommendation, as a justifica tion of his contliN.t. We insert the letter at length in the Appendix*, in justice to Mr. Kcate, that no part • The fothywirg ie a copy of the Letter here allude , d to : laAter is Neat,. Cs.i. Sur.7e.en General, to Matthew r•.A. Cot, • Arlinr , n-street, Feb. 29, 1501. I have the hnnenr to acknowledge the roccipt of ytbur letter of the 7th isn't lamer. ti-!p. to perceive that his Royal Hight - its.; the Comr.:::7:dur i t Chiulcamot help observing—" that frequent promotio;:: cor.mended by in. in my Department, of which .

I therefore humbly hope his Royal Highness will he pleased to lend a momentary attention to a representation of the circunt stances ; and I have then no doubt but his Royal highness will see, for the reaorts alleged, tiro what his Ray: Hiehness has been pl. as, d to consider as an inconsistency, will appear to his Royal Hishatss, from observing the difference of time between the recorwatendations hsr promotions, and those fi , r half-pay, to cher with the motiyeF , he each, that 1 have had only the good of the service, with attention to unnecessary expen di!xre. in stew. rez:ard to Promotions, a P't of which for the year ]fell, 11 .ive the :tut oo: tr. inelos:., 1 hev leave to obstr;,, that the ser vi:e of the sear rt quired rr. t l y (;; ; - ,,...r. in eh; room. at that 141, of others that were sick, and in cens.eqs.encc of taw stations fur rt;imental ini2ection ' or foreign service ; and it it is proper 1 stmehl acquaint you. for the inform..tion of his Royal v.:A I had the Latour to recommend sotae, of v'aom his Ronel li!Fitness was pleased to approve, and to submit others, rot:at:1;1T v horn I have not been honoured with an an swer, except the ca , e ef Mr. Locitley, whom I recommended lip be t'tati .

I beg leave to ob- of the explanation' may be omitted. Whatever bpi nion, founded on the particular circumstances at the time in which it was given, may be formed of thi , answer, we still think ourselves justified in the doubt we have entertained, and in recommending, there fore, a strict attention to the general rule to which we have adverted. Having now made these observations on the full and half-pay lists of the Medical Staff of the army, we should proceed, according to the arrangement we have laid down, to a consideration of the General iHospital System, on which the Staff Establishment is almost entirely founded. But, previous to this, it is necessary to state, that besides the large establish ment of Medical Staff appointments attached to the system, there is also a Military Staff Establishment belonging to it at home, the propriety of which must be considered. This establishment, it appears, commenced in 1797. On the 20th October in that year, a letter was addressed to Colonel Sontag by Colonci Brown rigg, the Secretary to the Commander in Chief, !.tat. ing, that by his Royal Highness's command, resiAn military officers were to be appointed to the General Hospitals at Deal, Gosport, and Plymouth, who were to act under the - immediate orders of Colonel Sontag, according to the instructions which were in closed ; that he was himself to be generally resident at the York Hospital, and in respect of it to consider himse:f as the Resident Superintendant, and acting under the accompanying instructions : he was to , visit the several General Hospitals occasionally, to see that the Resident Officers conformed to their or ders, and-. that the duties of the hospital were con ducted w 7,11 due regularity : he was to require monthly returns from the Resident Superintendants, and to frame from them a general - monthly n tarn firthe Commander in Chief and Secretary at War : and when soldiers were reported to him as recovered, he was to procure from the Secretary at War the routes necessary for their joining their respective corps. Colonel Sontag was also directed by this let ter to recommend proper persons, of the rank of ' Captain, to be Saperintendants at the three first named Hospitals, who, it was stated, *ould be al lowed their full pay as Captain, and five shillings per diem in addition. The instructions to the Resident Superintendents -direct, amongst other matters, that they should visit the hospitals frequently, and at uncertain hours to see that the hospitals were kept clean, and that the sick were properly attended to, and that they conducted themselves with propriety. The Superintendants were furthgt directed to require from the senior Medical 0111,1,- a written report, every morning, of the state of the sick ; and they were to take care that the hospitals were supplied with proper non-commission ufficers and orderly-men ; and to proportion the hospital guard. They were diligently to observe whether all persons attached to the hospitals were as siduous in their duties ; to detect malingerers (i. e. loiterer) ; and to see that all things were conducted ccconomically, and according to rule. The cony de scents were to be paraded by the Superintendant ; l and if any were fit to be removed, they were to he reported to the Superintendin:2, - Field Officer (Colonel Sontag), under whose immediate orders these officers were to consider themselves to be : and the Superin; tendants were to make monthly returns to him, and to the Commanding Officer of the district, f the state of the hospitals. In a general view, therefore, of the foregoing in structions, their only object appears to be, to invest the Military Superintendanqvith the care of the dis ci}-line of the General Hospitals. But, by an order of 31st March, 1800, it was directed, that the Pur veyor's weekly account of provisions end expenditure, of every denomination, should be minutely examined, and signed by the Military Superintendant, who was also to examine and sign the Purveyor's quarterly ac- 1 counts. And by other regulations cf 20th January, !so!, it was directed, that no new contract for sap plies for General Hospitals.should be entered into by the Purveyors, but with the concurrence of the Mili-i tare Superintendant, who, \yid: the Purveyor, would be held responsible for the propriety of the contract. And, as a check on the quality of the aHelt.s deli vered by the Contractor, the Military Sup.2rinteadant was further directed to visit and examine the Pur veyor's stores whenever he should see occasion. His examination and concurrence were, also, required in the condemnation of Purveyor's stores ; and his ap proving signature was to be put to all bids drawn by the Purveyor for sums in advance on account of con tingencies, as well as to the acceptances or bills by the Purveyor in pa; meat of the Cont::u.eors. And by subsequent regulations of Bth July, I Sol, it was stated, to be expected that the Military Si tperi ntendant should serve that Mr. Luckley was not i:ltended for that daty, but for Foreign Service. Tin four Assistant-Inspectors re commended were, in conse quence of extreme long service, and their ...theiency for inepection at home, and that seine of them did duty at that time upon t•etr genii's pay. With respect to .econunendations for half-pay, it has been usual about Christmas, to examine the list, and ..ee what Medical Officers were likely to be wanted for the service of the e.. -ming year, and such as probably weuld not be called upon, have been generally placed upon half-pay. For the year I gen, the number amounted to sixteen, yet seve ral of these were afterwards employed. For the year 1901, the nurobar amminted only to six, whom I beg leave particularly to raention, because these recommenda tions appear to His Royal Highness to be connected with the pre ceding promotions; two of them, viz. Williams and Hugo, were in a state of inability from ill health for service; Assistant Inspec-• for 1.. S. Wilson is lame, and therefore not efficient for active service; with respect to Surgeon Richard North, he was appointed one of the first this warYor a particular service; Assistant Inspec tor Ker had very recently objected to go on foreign service, unless upon conditions of hie own, that could not be complied with ; in consequence of which the armament he was intended to accom pany. had nearly proceeded without an Inspector; and the last, Deputy Purveyor Warner's residence is in town, so that when ever called ttgen, he is certain to be ready for service; thus it appeared to me, that the full pay of these 'six Officers might for the present be saved to the public, and each placed on half-pay, *Bahl... as they are always informed, to he called upon again during the star ; and of course, if the -ere ices of any of them should be wanted, provided they are fit and able to undertake the duty re quired, they would be employed before any new •appointments world have been recommended. 1 humbly hope that his Royal Highness will think me justified in recommending these six for half-pay, as I conceived it my duty, on revising the List in December, to recommend such as had been long sick, inefficient, or unwilling to serve, to be placed upon half pay until they were again called upon; and that it could have no re ference to the preceding promotions—and I therefore humbly hope and trust his Royal Highness will be pleased to see my conduct in a different light from that in which it has appeared to his Royal Highness, and is expressed In your letter. 1 have the honour to be, Sir, Tout mast oiesalivnt humble Servant, T. )(FATE. • • . . zttetii at-the inspe dein ("4"lie iitedicines amd stores, and examination of the Apothecary's and Pur veyor's returns of receipts and expenditures, and re mains, directed to be made by a Board of Medical Officers at each Hospital, in order that he might re port. his observations, particularly in respect of the Purveyor's department, to the Military Superinten dant General at York Hospital. And it was ex pressly declared, that the monthly inspection should not be considered as interfering with that controul over the expenditures and accounts of Hospitals, which had been before assigned to the Military Su perintendant by the preceding regulations, and par ticularly by that of the 20th January, 1801. And, lastly, by an instruction of the 12th Sepember, 1801, relative to the disposal of condemned hospital stores, it was directed, that the whole of the inspection should be under the controul of the Military Superintendant of each Hospital ; and he was to be responsible that none of the stores ordered to be sold or destroyed should be brought forward again, in any shape, to the prejudice of Government. By these last different regulations and instructions, therefore, it appears that, in-addition to their former care of the discipline of the General Hospitals, the Military Stye:intendants have now a controul ovcr the expendi.nre and the accounts of those Hospitals; a controul which, as they are required to be resident, May undoubtedly prove a very useful check en both. The mode in which this controul is executed will be noticed hereafter, in that division of our subject which relates to the expenditure of the department. There was no alteration in this establishment prior to 1803. But at this time, as we learn fi-cm Colonel Burnet, the present Superißtendant General, it was thought proper, under the apprehension of invasica which then prevailed, to appoint Field Oilleers to the situation of Resident Superintendants, with the pay of fifteen shillings per diem, in addition fo their half pay ; aad to allow them lodging money, and fcrage 6n- two horses : and a deputy was appointed to Co lonel Burnet, at that time acting (ptirsaant to the in structions given to Colontl Sontag) as the R ident Superintendant at the York Hosnital, en his (CAtnel Barnet's) recommendation, founded on an. expecta tion that. he should mach c mployed at that sea son. Since that time, four of she General Hospitals, viz. Deal, Chatham, Gospwt, and Plymouth, have been discontinued ; and the York Hospitalit Chelsea, and the Depot Hospital in the Isle of Wight, only remain. The expence of this part of then ‘rmy Me dical Department, incltiding the pay and • contingen cies, was, for the year ending 2.lth DeceMb2r, oae thousand seven hundred - and nin:4-one pounds inr shillings and sixpence ; for the'liall year en.:.ling 21th June, 1807, it was eight lrandre:: and sixty-four pentads five shillings and two pence ; making, there fore, little diminution in the expence, notwithstanding thit the establishment at ore of the General Hopl tals was discontinued in that halfyear. During the continuance of Gcreral Hospitals, it may, we think, he admitted to be tit that the discip line of each should be superintended by an experienced military man. An immediate and local controul, too, over the expenditure and the accounts of these Hos pitals, may be very beneficial ; but we see no existing reason, in the present reduced state of General Hos pitals, for the continuance of a Deputy Superintendant at that of Chelsea, or of Field Officers, with increaed pay, being employed in this service ; or of an allow ance of foray for horses to those wose duty is en tirely confined to one spot.—(To le continued.) being the di l for pr the Jr Con tit the A: L.:Ater S 1 htt the 7th the Col promos hi • Ra of the i !the Mod a ataacet see, ft, hetz • Royal the tel e'ber dire re. il 1 1. nVe Vice. s.m.e I stew a it is ye hon • others • weer, op be tam b the of copse • *kr SALES BY AUCTION'.
