ROUSE OF CONI \IONS. [Contitraed friar o'u'r Second Page.] ARMY ESTIMATES RESUMED. Lord PacteleasToti then lose to resume the sub ject of the /limy Estimates, and co emenced by describing the charge of the I,Var-Office in the present year, compared with the year 1814, the last of the war. lo ih,st year the charge of the current part of the War-Office was so-1 ething *hoar lily-six thousand [-woods ; the charge on the same *memoir for the year 1820, was about 36,0001. of the temeitiing sum, 9,3351: was altogether saved awl discontinued, and ten thotiSand pounds etas transferred to the department of cite arrear loisiness. of Which there had been a great accumit• Itoon when he entered on Ft Om t hat time, the year 1811, till the present, the tootle of the accounts in the office amounted to 1,339, of which only 36 remained unsettled.--(Eleat !)—The effect of the addition made to the arrear departin'ent motte than repaid annually the whole expence of .the War Oilier. Under the head of hospital ex- Fetters e was an increase this year, coin- Tared with the last, of 9 7661. of whirl) 6,0001. was to quired for medicines ; the remaining 3 7661. for various iecideutal expeoces. Under the latter head t he ophtliablik hospital was the chnige for which was 2,1001. — There were 100 patients treated itt it, and the whole expertce of each annually was but 211. With regaid ot tie effects of that establish ni,ot, he should only say, that experience had fully confirmed the opinion he had before express. ed on Hie subject, and that it had been attended with every benefit expected from it. The total amount (It the, voluoteer corps in England for the present year was 2,0(;0 infantry and 4000 eaval►y. 'The whole force in Ireland was in fantry, and amounted at present to about 20,000. In the Military College there was a dimi outioo of the charge of about 3,0001. The, senior dt•pirtutent at Fill/01.ml was shortly to he removed to Sandhurst, which woold cause a great saving, and the officers allowed to ran dy at the College were in tutor e to under go a more strict. examination. It, the army pay Of General Officers, there was an increase of' 3.1111. iii consequeuce of the redact ion (if regi ments. .the +'ride of garrisons there was an _increase of 9791 . . in consequence of transferring the charge of certain garrisons in North America from the Ordnance to the -Artny Estimates. the half-pay there was an inctease of 49,8071. — After describing the variations in o•her depart. mews, the Noble Lord stated that of the out peosioners of Chelsea and Kilmainhatn, when - tontooned to attend in consequence of the late changes in the army., I ,862 only absented themselves. A great number . bad sent ex cuses which had been found to he sufficient. The whole number of those from England and Ireland deemed 'fit for service, upon examination, was 12,305, of which 3314 'we're excused on a second exatnioation, leaving 8991 men proper for service, who expressed theinselves• very thatiktul for the additional advautages of being pieced on service. UPoti it . general compu tation there was ail actual increase of about 11,000 men, the actual increase of charge being :only 224.0001. And %vete it not that those events bad occurred which had caused the organization of the veteran battalions., as a necessary measure 'of security, there would hive' been a.savilig of '68,0001. as compared with theyear before. After _some further rematks, the Noble Lord moved the first Resolution for maintaining 9'2,224 men, rank and file, for set vice at home and abroad (excepting the regiments employed in the terri torial possessions of the East !mile Company), 'from the 25th of December, 1819, to the 24th of December, 1820, both inclusive. Lord NUGENT denied that any notoriety existed for increasing the military establisloneut. if pub lic distress called for an increase of the military establishment, the result would inevitably be, a total military despotism. He wished to learn to "vrhat extent the ballots for the Militia wcie to go, and what was to be the increase of the Yeomanry • Cavalry. Upon a future day he should recor d his opinions on the Journals of the finuse. Mr. F PALT4Ii.II wishe d to learn Om amount of the Dtivets Corps; be thought the new Military College unnecessary. Mr. Honda thought a Committee should be ap pointed, to inquire into the number and discipline of 'he troops. The nuMber of the Guards had been increased, and the expeuce of each man was equal to 140 j. yearly. The expeuce of building the new Military College could hive supported that at Marlow. By the Eatimate it appeared that the ex?ience of the Colonial Establishinents was nearly equal to that of Great Britain ; though much of it might and might to be defrayed by themselves. Up to 1814; the pay of Coninfaitder in.CLief had been only 91. per day, but it was now 181.8 i 9d. The reason then given for the "increase, viz. the increase of duty, called at the present (lose for a diminutittn. The expence of the Staff at head-quarters was 30,0331. and a 'reduction ought to commence there. The salary of the Judge Advocate had been raised, on amino* of the increase of duty, from 2 0-101. to 5,000:. As the additional duty had ceased, the salary should be reduced to its former amount. Out of 14,2031. charged for Malta and the lonian ,lslatols, only 2,6501. teas paid by the Islands them selves; thoOL;li Great Britain was only hound to pay the troops if they exceeded 3000.-14,0001. Was also paid for the expenses of the Civil Government of the Islands. He did not wish the College at Sandhurst to be abolished, but the expeuce to be reduced. In the course of _four years only seventy-six Cadets had received commissions, and taking the expense for three years to be 78,0001. the education of each Cadet Made available for the service of the coun• try was 10401. The ex,2ence of the Military Asylum should also be retraced in time of peace ; and if Officers on the half-pay were placed ott full pay when commissions fall vacant, the half pay would be saved to the Public. If the Noble Lord was sincere in his professions of economy, tt.,e Estithares for next year might be reduced smite hundred thousand pounds. COlonel Davies stated that the medicines for the Artily, which bed been supplied by a Patentee, uow dead, bad cost 50 per cent. taure than those 'curnisheCl to other ll:hit - relies of tie serttke, tip wishe,l to kuow how the Army was in future to be supplied, and also if there was any Militia in the lonian Ishitts. Lord Niturort called the Attention 'of the noose to the sthliiion that had beets made to the Mili tary Establishment. No notice had !weft taken of it in the Preamble to the Mutiny Bill .; ;Alai no altusion had been made to the subject in the pre sent Estimates. COI. FR n NCFI defended the establishment at Sandhurst', as being well calculated for the object it had in view ; a , d 1 eidogked the conduct of the Commander-in-Chief, who was by ,no dirrittS paid for , his arr;rions duties. The fact Was, that this Country public men were not adequately remunerated. The establishment was a debt of honour to tho , v personi who had 'hied and fallen for their Country. From 900 ro 1000 young men had been edocated there, who had no otter re source. - - Mr. KENNET adverted to the Opthalmic Esta blishment, and to the charges that had been made against Sir W. Adams, which he thought had been made good. in diseases of the eve be thought the s i n h trite of Drs. Franklin and Macgregor better than that Of the Noble Lord. 13y the olwrations that hail been performed many had been rendered :blind. Many had deserted the Establshinent, and it was not to be wondered at, if two Ow of fifteen lost their eyes. Mr GounrsußN slid, there was - a Militia in the lonian Islands, though be could not Shy if they were embodied at present. it wtts said (by Mr Hume), that no attempt had been made to compel the Colonies to pay a share of their Military Est a blishittent ; but in _the present year 11,0001. of expellee had been diminished.. Mr. 13.‘auANI asserted that the Opthalmic Esta blishment was not only one of the most beneficial, but also the most economic in the country Many who hail been disehatged as Mc:m . ll)le by Army Surgeons, had been cured in the Opthahnic Hos pital. Mr.•PtrCE had seen some men cured•in the Opthalmic Hospital, who bad been dismissed by four /limy Surgeons as incur able. H e tbftt e peosions should, not be granted for blindness till the parties bad been examined at the 01)11)41- mic Hospital. Mr. C. 4 HUTCHINSON thought -that great injus tice had been dune to Sir W. Adams, by the Member for Shrewsbury. Many, who had been blind for several years; ban u eco cered their sight in the' Opthalmie Hospital. He trusted no 'ob jection would be made to that item in the Esti- MateS. iNir.lißtartrr. read an extract from the Report of some menical men, in justification of his opi nion. Lord I'ALMERSTON replied to the questions that had been !Mt to him. With tespect to the salary of the Commander-in-Met, it was not given to him in that eapaci:y, but in that of Field-Marshal, tend amounted to about 6NOI. a year. That was the . salary of r Secretat y of btate, an&had it been given to the Commautter•in-Chief as the remune ration for. his services, at the bead of the army, he w a s Confident no man could think it too is;n . c lr when he reflected ou the' arduous duties that rte. volved on that illustrious. Person Ag e •The Noble Lord proceeded to defend. the Est aliliihments of the Military College and Agylum. and, to reply to the argum-nts used by the several Gentlemen who preceded him. Mr. Hums said a few words in explanation. In his opinion, if the College wag kept up, all educated there should have commissions, and not be sent adrift into the world. Lord NUGRNT said a few words against the manner in which the veteran battalions had been levied, as unconstitutional, that force having been raised without consent of Parliament. The num ber of 12,000 were voted on condition of being reduced within a limited time. The reduction took place, but between the prorogation and the Meeting of Parliament, 11,000 of the veteran battalion were levir.d. which was conrrary to the provisions of the, Bill of Rights. The CHANCELLOR of the Exonsnutts Observed, that Proclamation had been made in October, anti the ea l lii : st application possible had been made to Parliament on its .meeting. Lord PALMERSTON said, that the argument of the Noble Lord would go to deprive the Crown of the power to raise a single soldier without con sent of Parliament in case of insurrection or in vasion. Lord .NuoeNT Observed, ►hat even in such a case G4veranieni3Ould require a Bill of lotlenmil y.— The several Resol►itions were ►hen agreed to. COAL MAitk ET, JUNE 2. Ships at Market. Ships sold.

Loid NUGENT said, as tb , re were, so few Mem bers in the House, he could not reconcile it to his duty to sanction so large a vote, and he should move that the House be counted. The CHANCELLoR of the Excutoaura said, that lie would withdraw the vo , e till Monday. The House resnwed, and the Report was or dered to be received on Mouthy. DU 11G ET.
