Mr. SHAW LEFEVRE made a feW observetiOns iii praise of the Militia Force, and eXpi-essed a doubt. whether the Supplemental Militia could boaised to the foll extent proposed by the measure, Whilit there was a certain proportion of the former Sup , plementat Militia at_present serving in. the Militia. Lord CASTLEREAGH replied, that the obje4tion was a legal, not a political One, but declared it to be • his opinion, that after the Supplemental Militia had been re.'uced or incorporated with the original Mi litia, it was perfettly competent to his Majesty and the Legislature to call out the amount of Supple : mental Militia proposed. • The House then resolved. into a Committee on • the Bill, in which the various blanks were filled up, after ninth and frequent discussion, conformably to the general outline of the Plan opened by the Noble Framer. When the Bill had been gone through, Lord CASTLEREAGH brought up a Clause for, allow- ing an option to the men who _should be obtained' under the Bill either to enlist for a limited term, ac , cording to the, system adopted last year, and to be be entitled to all the advantages to be derived under that system, onto enter for unlimited service. The ground on which the Noble Lord propoed this Clause was, that as so large a force was to be raised in the Present year, it might be proclue - tive of much future military inconvenience, if so large a portion , of the army wa, to go out within so short a period as at the expiration of seven years. Mr. W. Ssi ITH had one general objeEtion against 'offering the °satin' proposed in the clause, because it svould materially interfere with the system now in existence. The necessity of bringing up such a WAS a strong argument against the measure of the Noble Lord. Tile SECRETARY at Wait, in confirmation of the argument of his Noble Friend, stated, that the flece that would be raised within the present year by this • measure, and by the ordinary recruiting,. would amount to 48,000 men ; and if so large a portion of Our Military force were to be entitled. to theiedis charge at the cud of seven years, it might be produc-. tine of much mischief. Mr. Derry-rmx should give a decided negative to this clause, thus surreptitiously introduced into the LIU without notice, to subvert the system at present in force. Why had the clause not been produced `at first on the face of the Bill? TheCliii.NCELLORef the EXCHEQUER, to coned the mistake of the Hon. Gentleman, remipd , ed the Committee, that his Noble Friend'had; in the first instance, seated his intention to bring forward this Clause in the Committee. The reason' why they had not introduced the clause on the face Ofthe sill was, that his Noble Friend wished to take the sense of the House on the general principle of his measure in the second reatiing of the Bill, without endangering its adoption, if .there should be any general objecction to such a clause. For the same reason, he chose to take the, scnse of the o.alrait tee on the clause, which, if rejeEted, would not ate eet the general measure. This enlistment was to be only of a temporary nature, and, therefore, to allow the option would not be to depart from the uniform permanent mode of recruit ing. On their own principle, the : Gentleman opposite ought to agree 16 the clause, because, though their system was at first to apply to all men serving in the army who had served twenty-one years, they had been deterred from a4ing upon it, when they found that the number to br discharged aniotmted to 6000. To be consistent therefore, a hey who were altetid tncFs_liarge 6000 then serving, but not raised tinder the provisions of their system, should not obje6t to giving an option that would have the erre& of. nreventitee the whole of so large a force as 28,000 men, not raised under their plan, from being entitled to'their discharge at the same time: Lord G. CAVENDISH argued against the Clause, and contended, that it would be nugatory, because for the same botinty any man must prefer the li i neted to the unlimited period of service. Mr. BABINGTON felt rather jealous of any men. sure that went to disturb what had already been, laid clown fur' litnited service, and from which it was most natural to exped the most beneficial result. Ikloch conversation ensued as to the operation and ~,,,e f rea - a - the Clause • it was supported by General •LAULETOI,I, Mr. T. YONES, General Nitres, Lord . ' CASTLE'REAGII, and General Loc.; .tr.ster, and pp posed on a variety of rounds by Mr. Wietasst e the Hon. Mr. ,WARD, the Hon. Mr. LYT- Mr. D.
