Earl GRANVILLE said it was quite manifest that in the matter of a blockade, involving in a great degree the interests of trade, it would be most rash not to take care to be strictly and verbally accurate in reference to the answer to be given to any question on such a sub ject • and it was the delicacy of the matter that had in duced his noble friend not to give an off-band answer which might possibly be inaccurate. With regard to the blockade of the Baltic certainly some'portion of that blockade was not enforced until lately. At certain ports in the Baltic, and also at Archangel in particular, there was a considerable quantity of merchandise the property of British and French merchants, and therefore it was necessary to postpone the blockade fer some tine. Orders were sent out for a strict blockade of the Russian ports of the Black Sea. Those orders were given to the English and French admirals ; but some points of inter national law havin g arisen, they could not be at once carried out, except at the entrance to the Black. Sea. Communications were immediately entered into between the two Governments, and the result was that fresh orders were sent out for:an effectual blockade of that sea. Then -cams the enormous enterprise—the conveying of the troops to the Crimea, and during.that time materials were entirely wanting to enforce the blockade. Since that time stringent orders had been sent out to enforce the blockade in the strictest possible manner, and to harass the enemy in every possible way. The Earl of DERE i---When was that order sent ? Earl GRANVILLE said the last order was sent two months ago, and the first was sent at the commencement of the war. The noble earl had asked whether enor mous quantities of ammunition bad not been sent from Odessa to the Crimea, and whether two Russian princes had not also sailed from that port ? The only answer he (Earl Granville) could give way, that four or five ships had been constantly cruising in front of Odessa ; and it appeared perfectly impossible to him that such ammuni tion could have left the port, and that the Russian princes could have been sailing in the vicinity of it in the way described by the noble earl. Further than that be could not answer. With respect to the bill before their lordships, the best plan °fall would be that of the noble earl, namely, that while they were waging war in the Crimea they should have perfectly well-trained troops stationed at the garrisons in the Mediterranean ; but the thing they had to do was that which was practical and that which was possible. The noble earl had stated that there had not been anything like an adequate reserve kept up to reinforce the army in the Crimea. He hardly wished now to argue the whole question of the expedition to Sebastopol ; but he was not sure that it was not better to have sent 50,000 men at once on such an expedition than to have sent only 25,000, and to have left 25,000 behind them. (Hear, hear.) With regard to the garrisons in the Mediterranean, it would be better, no doubt, to have perfectly well-trained men sta tioned there ; but at the present crisis it was not prac ticable, and h e t h ought, both in a military and in an administrative point of view, it was not desirable to gar rison our forts in the Mediterranean with perfectly raw recruits. He thought th e plan of recruiting from the militia for the defence of those places was not a bail one ; but there was not found that immense readiness en the part of the men in the militia to volunteer for that service, as was generally suppo se d. H e thought with respect to the general question that measures of this sort were brought forth in great crisis, and he thought our Parliamentary system, admirable as it was, ought not to be stretched with the view of discovering flaws in such measures. Earl GREY said he did not think it required any microscopic power to discover Elms in the bill before their lordships. He objected to that bill because he thought it was wrong in principle, and departed from the whole design of the Militia Bill which Parliament sanctioned three years ago. He thought the object of that Militia Bill was to create a defensive force for the country, which was to consist of persons who, not adopting the military life as th e i r profession, and intending tokeep up the ordinary avocations of civil life, were yet willing to devote a certain portion of their time in order to acquire a fitness to defend the country in case of dae4er or emergency of any kind. The Militia Bill of 1852 differed considerably from our former militia acts. There was a special prevision introduced into it, that, even in times of war, the militia was not to be employed except in cases of actual invasion or rebellion. It was not intended that the militia was to be a force con stantly and permanently embodied, as in the case of the last war. Acting on that principle, men went into the militia both as officers and privates, who would not have entered into it if it had been thought they would be taken from their usual civil pursuits. Everybody knew that the rapid augmentation of the army was an object of the greatest importance, and why was not the standard lowered as soon as, or even be fore, the increase was voted' by the other House of Par. liament ? It might be said that it was too late to look back, and he admitted that they could not repair the errors of a delay which was to him unaccountable ; but admitting that, he contended that to adcpt this plan of enoouraging militia regiments to volUnteer for foreign service was to adopt an erroneous principle, and bad policy for the conduct of the war. It would probably Spoil the militia, fir the sake of measures which would hums a less effect in accomplishing an increase of the Army than others which might have been adopted. At MU:1.41241es time , he agreed w ith th e no bl e earl opposite objet is not expedient to reject this measure. His future, stating his objections was to check, for the P e rsevera r nee in what seemed to him a most erro neous lin e which the Gol,;: and not to refuse those powers for on this p r i nc i ple r u t Zt e applied to Parliament.

There was a precedent for this STATE OF THE HARBOUR OF BALAKLAVA.. The Earl of HARDWICKE had a second question to put, respecting the port and road of Balaklava, that most important position for the army in the Crimea, as on the state and condition of that port depended the means of feeding and relieving our forces. He had been induced to take notice of the state and condition of the port of Balaklava, in the first instance, in consequence of the afflicting circumstances which followed the disas trous storm of the 14th November. It was unnecessary for him to attempt to describe what had occurred. The effects of that tremendous hurricane had been faithfully reported. Among the losses during that storm th ere was one ship the circumstan ce s o f which were peculiar, in con sequence of her having coming out from England contain. ing almost everything that was necessary for the relief and assistance of the army in the Crimea, and she had besides money to a large amount. It was well known that that ship perished. (Hear.) It would be presumptuous to say that that ship could have been saved, but he could assert that it washis conviction, if the regulations of the port of Balaklava were such as ought to prevail in any such port, that ship (the Prince) ought to have been saved. It had been stated that that ship had not been com manded in the manner she ought to have been ; and he knew from an officer that so ill had she been commanded that his attention had been drawn to the fact ; the Go vernment was advised as to the inability of the officer who had charge of her to command her properly. (Hear, hear.) When she arrived off the port of Balaklava, it was well understood that she was taken in with such velocity, and in so unseamanlike manner, that she lost two of her anchors. She was brought up in such a way that she ran her two cables out to a pinch, and thus they paited. What followed and what was done by the officer in charge of the port ? This ship was forced to anchor outside with one anchor, probably her sheet an chor. It was not stated whether she had one- or two anchors, or an anchor at all. How is it she was not re ceived in the port of Balaklava, or, if necessary, why did not some of the men-of-war there supply her with anchors ! Why was a ship of that nature required to take an offing ? The whole affair showed the grossest want of seamanship on the part of the captain of the unfortunate ship, and of neglect on the part of the officers in authority over the harbour. He would read an extract from a document which he did not think her Majesty's Government would pooh-pooh ! So correct had been the statements made by the reporters in the Crimea and the Black Sea that he did not think her Majesty's Government would say that it was merely a newspaper report, or say that it was not true. If they did, his purpose would be answered. The reporter, writing on the 25th of November, from Balaklava, says :—"Will it be credited that, with all our naval officers in Balaklava with nothing else to do—with our embarras des richesses of captains, commanders, and lieutenants, there is no more care taken for the vessels is Balaklava than if they were colliers in a gale off Newcastle; Ships come in and anchor where they like, do what they like, go out when they like, and are permitted to perform whatever vagaries they like, in accordance with the old rule of higgledy pig gledy, rough and t um bl e, ' combined with happy-go lucky.' So much for the state of the port. It was easy for an officer who understood his-business to have provided for a different state of things there, and it was most extraordinary that there was no responsible officer sent by her Majesty's Government to that port, capable of establishing and maintaining the ordinary regulations. He did not say that the Government ought to be made to answer for all the small details of such a port, but he thought they should be made answerable for placing such an officer in charge of it as would be fully compe tent for his duty and responsible for the due performance of it. In addition to this, such was the state of the port, that, long after this terrible disaster, there was a collection of the debris of every sort of article knocking about. The same reporter said :—" Indeed our cavalry is at present employed in feeding itself. It is all they have to do. The men are sent down with their horses from the camp to the waterside every day, and carry back their fodder and rations. It is perfectly disgrace ful to the authorities, whoever the y may be, to see on this, th e twelfth day after the gale, trusses of compressed ha y ous ting about a n d rott i ng in every direction in the 00arid , alo r_t while our ho rses are d y i ng of sheer inanition. neglect and i ndifference to the interests of ' the public service are chargeable somewhere or another The Duke of NEWCASTLE had not seen the state ment to which the noble earl referred, and certainly was not aware that any newspaper or individual had ever stated that the whole of the medical stores and warm clothing were en board the steamer Prince. But this he could assure the noble lord, that if any such statement was made, no statement more incorrect certainly was ever put forth, because every ship or transport conveying stores, with the excep tion of those that carried the battering train, had invariably carried out an assorted cargo. Thus, for example, in the case of the very vessel whose unfor tunata loss they had had so much reason to deplore. The Prince carried out a regiment of soldiers ; it carried out besides a considerable quantity of ammunition ; it carried out also a large amount of medical stores and warm clothing. So far from all the medical stores, how• ever, having been placed on board that vessel, it was in fact the fifth or sixth consignment of such stores which had been sent ont, and it certainly was not the last. Again, so far from all the warm clothing for the troops having been placed in that ono ship, he rejoiced to say that nothing could be further from the fact. The Prince certainly carried out a considerable quantity of warm clothing, which was lost; but since then various ships had arrived out with warns clothing,and a great number of the troops had obtained this comfort. The Jura arrived almost immediatelyafter the loss of the Prince with aconsiderable quantity of warm clothing on board, and he believed there was hardly a ship which had left this country for the Crimea during some time past which had not carried out warm clothing of some description or another, and es special care had been taken never to send out in the same ship the whole of the articles of one description, so as to avoid the risk of losing them. Thus houses and lodges for covering the troops had been sent out on board several different ships. So far had this point been attended to that there had arisen in consequence serious difficulty. Perhaps noble lords were sometimes too little inclined to make allowance fur the great difficulties existing in these matters. He did not say that either the Government or the subordinates and officers employed by them abroad were without blame, but he said that great allowance ought to be made for the difficulties ne cessarily attending this class of business. An assorted cargo led to considerable embarrassments in the case of such enormous ships as the Prince, unless the whole of the cargo were embarkel at one port. In that case it happened that the medical stores were put on board in the river, and placed in the bottom of the hold ; the vessel afterwards went to Woolwich for ammunition and ma chinery; then to Portsmouth for other stores ; and last of all she took on board a regiment. It might, perhaps, be possible in future to make arrangements by which all stores of one description should be shipped at a par ticular port, thowgh at considerable expense and incon venience. Mr. NEWDEGATE had heard much about the neces sity of this measure, and the able troops that we proposed but not one wo r d h a d yet been heard about w t w o r forces were, or wh a t th e i r c h aracter was ee they were well arm e d t roops or not, or such as we might letnthe tag p rhg lace that confidence in them that the occasion called for, and he warned them that Russia was, of all Powers in the world, the best adept in raising discord and mutiny amongst Powers opposed to her, if she obtained a chance, and would not leave any art unpractised to obtain such an end—(gm., hear)—and then he would ask, what was to be our security that such a band as we proposed to raise would be faithful to their engagement? We had plenty of resources, not only at home, but in our Indian possessions, that might in a very few months be made available for any service in the Crimea, and it was under these circumstances that he should give his most strenuous opposition to the bill. Mr. FRESHFIELD thought the British force in India of against Russia, but he sugges t ed that the whole ... might be better employed, not in th e C r i mea, b ut i n other this bill had been exhau s t e d . T echnically there was no objection to this bill, an d after the debate of yes terday and the night b e fore it was tim e th e bill h a d got i nto comm ittee, now that its principl e h ad been affirmed by the subject plaees majority of the house. Continuing this debate might lead to an adjournment beyond Tuesday next, which was not desirable; and he therefore entreated the house to cease talking and go to work on the bill in committee. He supported the bill because he felt that our noble fellow- Lcountrymen and allies in the Crim ea were entitled to some me di a ta relief. We desired peace ; but still we would not ask it—we would endeavour to extort it. Mr. MURROUGH knew not whether the subject of this was of opinion th at it had not yet been bill had been exhausted in the house, b u t thi s h e did k now oryseed. The no bl e lord the:President of the Council ee h tel a ye d e dntu t i h e reatened to resign if this bill were not passed; but, considering that the noble lord during the last two ses sions had held out a similar threat, h e th ought b ut little weight was to be attached to it. Th e no b le lord was too di4ereeta politician to go to a country upon a measure like this, and he, though a humble member, had no hesi tation in recommending the house still to reject this mea sure, and turn its attention to reforming the recruiting of our own army, which was based upon a system that was radically bad. Mr. DISRAELI—I am net going to detain the house by offering any o bservations on th e bi ll, upon which I have already ex pressed my sentim en t s fully ; but, with o th f e t t debate, as t permission, lowillsay a word regarding the conduct which I do not wish any mistake to of expressing any wish on the part of be prevalent. I believe the noble lord the leader of the house, having already taken some part in the debate, has not the opportunity the Government that the house would proceed with the cemtaittee • therefore, perhaps, he will excuse me if for a moment I should take his pest out of his hands. Ido not wish any hon. gentleman for a moment to believe that there is any wish on this side of the house to throw any unfair obstacle in the way of the progress of public busi ness, and if the noble lord will reflect for a moment on the course of the discussion on this measure he will see that there is not the slightest foundation for any such reflection in the present case. The bill was read a first time on Mon day, when the house remained sitting for a long time without business, but no gentleman on thi s s i de took any advantage from that circumstance to prop ose any amend ment. In a private conversation with the noble lord, I expressed my wish to do everything I could to facilitate its being read a second time next day, and to have the di vision taken at an early hour. Every person must feel that any imputation upon this side of the house, of having thrown an obstacle in the way of public business,-is quite unfounded. Considering that we entir e ly disapproved of this measure, it was quite impossible that we could have taken any other course than that which we ha re taken. With regard to the debate yesterday, we must all recollect that the noble lord, the leader of this house, never rose and deprecated that debate. No doubt ho was influenced by the feeling that, considering the suddenness with which the whole subject had been brought before Parliament, and the evident wish which had been shown on this side of the house to facilitate the legitimate progress of busi ness, it was but fair that any gentleman who desired to ad dress the house on Wednesday morning should have an opportunity of expressing his opinion upon this subject. I do not suppose, in these circumstances,that the noble lord thought that the discussion which took place yesterday was an unauthorised discussion. (Hear.) Well, we vir tually have had two &lye debate upon the second reading of this important measure, and I do not think that, in the circumstances under which the house met, that was at all an unreasonable arrangement. I think it would have been disrespectful to our constituents if the debate had been hurried. With regard to myself, I came down to the house this evening prepared to go into committee, and to offer no 0 -PPO s ltiezt to the motion for that purpose, lam perfectly ins ag our own countrymen, and give them half pay. Mr. S. HERBERT reminded the hon. gentleman that our own men were not entitled to half pay till after a cer. tain number of years' service. Mr. BANKES thought the question raised by the right honourable member for Oxford was one of great import ance to the ratepayers of the country. In justice to the men they should support their families, and he thought the bill ought not to pass this committee until the point was fully considered. Mr. V. SMITH would suggest to the Secretary of War that some very grave colonial questions were involved in the proposed scheme of emigration. Mr. BOOKER wished to know where these men were to be located whether in the manufacturing or the rural dis tricts ; great anxiety existed on the point. In the former acts there was a provision that they should not be quar tered at a greater distance than 5 miles from the sea coast. Mr. S. KNOX asked if it was intended to send these troops to the colonies to relieve the English regiments there, anA also how they were to be officered ? Mr. S. HERBERT said that there was no intention of sending them to the colonies. As to the officers, in the last war the German legion was wholly officered by Ger mans. Lord J. RUSSELL—Let the right bon. gentleman give notice of an amendment for the third reading. Mr. BANKES could not; give such a notice, as he did not approve of the bill. After a few words from Mr. SPOONER ; The amendment was negatived without a division, and clause 1 was agreed to. Clauses 2,3, and 4 were then agreed to. Upon Clause 5, Mr. PACKS ' thought there ought to be some limit in the time of the duration of this bill, so that the opinion of the country might be taken upon it when its continuance was to be provided for. He thought that it ought not to be now passed for a longer period than until the end of the next session of parliament ; this would bring it to about August, 1853. He should, therefore, upon the third read ing, of propose t o add these words " That this act shall c ontinue in for ce un til th e en d o f th e nex t session t p i e o a n c e s h of o t h u ( 4 1 b a e c t a g s r h e a e I d l i u n p o n n o , ca.o provided parliament, or until one year a ft er a d e fi n ite treaty - of o ra of foreig ners w h o shall have enlisted be f ore - the act shall expire." ffe that ha t t h e the se r e v x i cpi o t Mr, M. secondhl .

Mr. OTWAY suggested to the Secretary of War the propriety of employing the officers on the half-pay list; a large number of them were able and willing to serve. Mr. GROGAN said that these Germans would not be well received in the colonies. In Germany it was con sidered a disgrace to enlist for pay, and a stigma would always attach to the men. Mr. F. SCOTT thought that before the discussion pro ceeded the Secretary at 'War ought to answer some of the important questions that had been put to him. Mr. S. HERBERT would endeavour to give as much information as possible. As to the officers, he had not in tended to express any decision as to English or German officers ; he Lily quoted a precedent ; it was a question which should be left to the discretion of the military au thorities. It was a mistake to suppose that there were a large number of available officers on the half-pay list ; it had Leen closely scrutinised when the army was augmented some time since, and he believed that every officer fit for active service was then employed. As to the location of these troops he did not anticipate there would be any dif" ficultyl in finding places in England to receive them for the short time they would remain. As to the emigra tion he did not mean to convey that the Government I had come to any conclusion on the subject ; he only stated that it had been represented to him by persons conversant with the German emigration that as a large number of these people annually passed through this country, some of them might be induced to serve for a limited period, pu SCOTTISH CENTRAL RAILWAY.— for Traffic return3l week endin g D ec . 17 , 1854 Corresponding week last year l, a , .100956 16 [ADVERTISEMENT.) —Du Bar r y' s D e li c i ous Arabica Food invariably restores health, without eine, inconvenience, or expense, as it saves fifty ti o u t its cost in o th er remedies.We extract a fef i ° ,ol of fifty th ousan d t est i monials of cures, whieh five resisted all medicines.

The same as to winter clothing, when it might be expected to arrive, Mr. S. HERBERT would answer the questions in the order they had been put. With regard to the wooden houses, the Government caused some of them to be con structed immediately information had been received from Lord Raglan that they would be required. The l a r ger porti on of these were at sea, and as far as Government could hazard a guess, they were now about the Bosphorus. The Government found that they could not obtain a suffi cient quantity of materials to hut the whole army here.
