Tric Royal - As . sent was. given by Commission to the VO. lunreer Corps Regulation Bill, tile Scotch Excise Licence, the Solmiv frith Fishery, the Thames and Medway Navi— gation, the Pancras Poor 13f:1, and to :our Private Bills. The Lords Commissioners were, the Lotto CHANtxLL6R, Lord FlAwk - Esnuay, and Lord WALsiNsnAm. The Bills upon the Table, chieiiy of a private nature, were forwarded in their respedive stages: The Earl of Su F FOLK . presented a Peiition from certain persons confined for Debt in the County gaol at Carlisle, praying relief, etc. His Lordship took the opportunity of making a few observations upon the. genera/ .subject, which \he thznight one of cossiderable national importance... In ok dOoo bring it more fully to the view of the I.egislature, ac, counts should be Made out as fur as the same Was eradicable, of number of persons confined for debt In tits ditiLtrerit gaols in the Kingdom. There were a nuffiber of upon the sul*et'on the Tables of Houses of Parlianient, and lib Wished id know, front any Noble Lord competent to inform-him, .whether it was intended to adopt any measure in consequence. He thought some steps ought to be taken in _the bhsiness ; and, iii.that View, he had to lanient the absence of his Noble Friend, who couldtto justice -to the so:Jed from his extensive information thereon, and by the force of his eloquence. Ile understood that d conSitferable part of the number of those confined were ?of s;Saadebts---for debt; under the amount of r2J. There which s whoa be i :;it / C .V.I , in tonsi &rations of the subjed He understood that by the existing Law, and if he erred, any Noble and Learned Lord could set him right, a person could be held in confinernent, notwith standing lie gave up every shilling he had, and ail his ,pro perty to the creditor, fin - the residtie which might remain of the debt. If this was really the case,. when bona fide. every thing was given up by him,, the regulation, he thought, tated against the principles of the' ritish constitution. There was another point connected with this'considei-ation : If the Creditor. was. enabled to hold the debtor thus in custody, he ought, at least,' to be .compelled to allow him a modicum sufficient to support his existence, which the present rate of allowance, barely, was not sufficient to do. He also thought; that the number of persons'confined for small debts should ae distindly specified in whatever accounts upon the subject should' be laid before Parliament. He concluded by moving, that the Petition do fie upon the-Table ; which Was ordered. Lord.Wnr,siNCnAat, •to answer to a question put by the Noble Earl in the course of his observations, stated, that there was a Bill now in its progress throu,-,h Parliament for the relief of insolvent Debtors. , MIL MA RSDE N.

Mr: Pll"l`'s PLAN for INCREASING the ARMY. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER be- 1 ing Called upon by the Speaker, rose and addressed 1 the House nearly as follows "In 'entering upon . 1 the subjedi which it is now my duty to bring tor.. ward, I feel a peculiar satisladion in being ena. bled to state, that the principle of the Measure which 1 shall have the honour of prOposing, 'appears - to be pretty unanirnhusly agreed oh, not only by the ob. I servations of those Gentle'rnen' who have hitherto I appeared to have turned their attention most to the Military Defence of the Conntry; but the votes of Gentlemen on every side of the House, appear to have expressed very plainly, that it is their clear and decideLl opini o n, t h at i t i s no w impo rtant an d I necessary to devise those means which may he the most effectual for increasing, not only our Internal strength and Security, but also for considerably augmenting our Regular ArMY. It appears to be the unanimous wish of the Country that we should have such a Regular Army as would be stiffir.:i.z,nt to take advantage of any favourable ei.rcumstance which might occur in the course :n the War, and which now and at all times - , 'alight he sufficient for preserving to the Coun..iy that rank which it has hi. 1 therto held among the Nations of Europe, and which I it ought still to bold. Being then so Unanimously agreed upon the general principle, we haVe now only to direa our best efforts to carry it into execution ; and to consider by what means this ne.: • cessary augm entat i on o f our Regular Army canlbe , effected' with t he l e a st poss ibl e inconvenience or hardship to individuals, and without weakening those measures which have been adopted for the in,' ternal Defence and security of the Country. With out entering at large into the principle of the roeasurcs- which have been already adopted for the I Defence of Oa Country, r shall observe, generally, that the obje& of Use Plan which I propose is, io the first place, to ,do away those obstacles which are in the way of the. Recruiting for the Reinlar Army, and whielt, in a greit. meaoire, owe' their, birth to that competition which now prevails among those who Recruit for the Regular Army, and those who Recruit for a more limited description of Ser vice, or from which competition the bounties are now so high. In the second place, I propose not only to do away those obstacles which now exist to the Recruiting for the Regular Arniy, but to create a new additional Force, that may be a per mment foundation for a regular increase of our Army. And thirdly, I should wish, if not to create, at least to preserve and increase that Force tvlien services are of a more limited description, tint which may be sufficient for the internal Defence of the Country, and to render our Troops of the Line thore•dispoiable. When I consider how unani. o . motes the sense of Parliament, and the voice of the Country, appears to be in requiring a con. siderable addition to our Army, I think I do nor liatter myself; when I suppose the measure 4 shall new propoaco6ar the attainment-of this objet to be such as most meet' with general approbatioe.. I am convinced that they will be attended with much less inconvenience and personal hardships, than What is experienced under the present mode . of • raising the additional Forces which Parliament have already voted. I shall reduce the obser vations I have now to offer under three heads. sat, The amount of the Troops to be raised ; 2dly; Their description as as to the limitation . of .their services ; and 3:11y, The mode by which they are to.be 'raised. As to the' first point, I shall not now call for any new exertion on the part of the Coun: ; I only desire that the call which the Legishio ture.his already thought it necessary to make shall now be made good. The Legislature has already thought it necessary to create the Royal Army ,of Reserve, and to call out the Supplementary Militia, which, as it appears to me, may be sufficient to lay a pnrmanent foundation for the increase of our Regular Army. If then I call upon the Country to make good' that which has been already voted necessary, Ido not propose any new or extraordinary measure, but I hope we shall be able to give-such a diredion to the Force already voted, as will best answer those great objeds, for the attainment of which I trust we are unanimous. Of the numbers which have been already voted for the Army of Reserve, eight or nine thousand are now deficient. In calling,, thetefore, for this deficiency to be made good to the Nation; I only follow the ideas of those Gentle men who voted that Force to be necessary ; and I conceive, that by completing the-number that is so deficient, we shall be enabled to devise a means of so far recruiting the Regular Army. The next groundl should wish to take for the purpose. of increasing the Regular Force, is by the gradual diminution of the Militia, until it shall arrive at the point from which it had been so much in creased, and settle at the original compliment of .40,000 for England, and 8000 for Scotland : I should suppose that all the difference between the present complement of the Militia and the Supplementary. Militia, exceeding the original number, should be transferred, together with the 9000 deficient on the Army of Reserve Establishment, to the New Force which I should now wish to have established. The deficiency of the Militia is at present about 7000 for - England and Wales. If, then, Parliament would resolve that the numbers which it had already voted for the Army of Reserve and Militia, and which were still deficient, should be now filled up and trans.. ferred to the new force, I should consider this as a very great source for recruiting our Regular Armies. In addition, however, to this source, it appears to me that another, and a very abundant source, presents itself to our view : Lesides the 9000 who are defi- * cient of the Army of Reserve, and 7000 deficient' in the Militia, vacancies must often occur, which as' they were filled up, the number 'so added might .be constantly transferred. The House haying once resolved that the Militia ought to be reduced to its former establishment, would also con. sent that the vacancies should be filled up in a manner the most likely to be of effeduak service to the Country ; and it would ape pear, that the numbers who should be required to fill up these vacancies, would, if transferred to the Regular Army, be not only a considerable 'rein forcement, but a reinforcement of a nature likely to he a perpetual source of recruiting the Army of the Line. This, then, was no new call upon the Ccdm. try, but merely a demand that the numbe:l which they had before declared to be necessary should now be furnished. Ido nor, S:remerely allude to the situation of the Couna:y - at the present moment; but in the measure 'a:fifth I have now proposed, I am sanguine ..onough to exped that we shall find, not only for the present year, but for. future times, a neaver.failing resource for recruiting our Armies. I consider it as a: thing undeniably clear, t h at t hi s Country should at all times have a Regular Army suited to the rank and station it has held, and ought always to hold, among the Nations of Europe—it should be able to at with vigour against its Ene mies, as _well as to 'defend itself against their' at tacks e• and therefore such a mode of recruiting must be found out, as will be' likely to afford a permanent source for the recruiting of our Regular Armies. I am happy. to be able to state, that of those who have enlisted in the course of last year for the Army of Reserve and the Militia, no less than 13,000 enlisted for general service into the Regular Army. 'lt would be seen in this, how much benefit had already resulted from those institutions which the House had formerly adopted; if thent3,o6o Recruits had been obtained for the Regular Army in as many months (and it was not 'bore thark
