' The Glasgow POrt Improvement Bill was brought up from th;Commons, and read a first time. SIR J. T. DUCKWORTH. GRENV:ILLE ruse_ and moved the Order of the day for taking into consideration His Ml:je,sty's Most Gracious Message, -recommending the 'con ferrincr some signal mark. of favour on. Sir.J. T. DucCWorth; for the late important service performed: by him to the Couhtry... His Lordship observed,. that haVing so recently had an occasion to direct . the. attention and admiration of the House to those glo rious'And useful services,. he should not vainly at temptL.to amplify by words what must be so grate-• fully felt by their. Lordships, and.by the Country at : : larp...,He should therefore content' himself with roving, that an humble addre be presented to His Majesty, assuring His Majesty that that House would cheerfully attend and, give affect to His. Majeitis most gracious recommendation. The Motion was agreed to nemine diqsentiente. - THE 'ARMY. • Lord CAMDEN rose - to move an Address to His Majesty, praying for the ,production of. certain Pa pers. They were of two descriptions; one alluded' to the Additional Fdrce Bill, and to the number of tnea raised under its operation in each County and Parish-J.-the other- refeired to the general recruiting. service for the different Corps of which the Army wastomposed. He.shciuld not now inquire, for: he could nut expect an answer to such' aluvstion, whe ther it was the - intention of His .Majesty's Ministers to repeal that Bill. - He had no wish whatever to provoke or anticipate' any discussioh respeating. the plan that was in preparation for improving and strengthening our military.system : the chief object of the Motion with which he should conclude; was, - to coiled and have in readiness before the House such information as was likely to bear upon the im portant question that was: soon expected to engage their Lordships' attention. .He did not foresee any objection to what he should have the honour to pro . poswiratif there vas 'any,- he- shotdd be rea, dy to couch his Motion in what less objectionable terms His Majesty's Ministers should. think proper to sug gest. His Lordship then concluded with moving, That an humble Address be presented to His Ma- - jesty, praying that he would be pleased to give di reetions that there be laid before the House - alteturn of the number of men raised in each County and Parish, conformably to the prOvisions of the Addi tional Defence Bill. Lord GRENVILLE_ said, he should have .no:ob jeCtion to the Motion, provided it was understood that the Return. moved for not only contained - the. .number of men raised by the provisions of the Bill in question, but also a description or explanation of the particular matuaer in which they had been raised. in each Parish. That waR the considefation which in his mind would principally bear upon the plan that was to be brought forward, • the particulars of which he expeCted would be known before forty-eight hours would elapse. 'Much impatience had been expressed at the delay that - had accrued in bringing forward that measure; but it should be 'recolleCted how es- sentialit was both to the military service, and to the present circumstances of the Country, that nothing crude and imperfect should be hastily thrust forward,' but that leisure, thought, .and consultation, should be employed in digesting a system that should fairly promise to answer its object and meet the exigencies of the case considering the Motion in the point of view in which he had placed it, there should be no opposition to it on his part. Lord CAMDEN had no desire but to obtain such information as was likely to be useful in the discus sion that Was so soon to claim their Lordships' atten- • Lion; and he willingly consented it should be under stood, that when the ,Return was made, it shonld be looked upon not only . as indicative of the number of men raised, but also of the particular manner in which they had been raised. The Motion was then put and-agreed to. , Lord CAMDEN next moved a similar Address for the production of several other Papers relative to the general recruiting of the Army; which Motion was also agreed to.

Lord HAWKESBURY said, that he should have to trouble the House with a few Motions, which, in his opinion, would follow up and tend to give a more comprehensive etre& to the Motions which had just been submitted to the House by his Noble Friend. The objcat of them was, first, -to obtain a Return of the number to which the Volunteer Force of England and Ireland amounted in the year 1804 5 and,of the number that had been certified to be effeCtive.—He should wish a similar Return to be made of the state of the Volunteer Force for the year 1805.-It must . be obvious that the end he had in view was to ascertain whether that Force had diminished or increased; and how far it might be relied on to form a part of our Military System and Means of Defence. He was not aware that there could be any objeetion to these Motions, but if there - was, he „should be ready to adopt any other less objettionable mode-of fram ing them; which any Noble Lord would take the trouble to suggest. ~., A.,.. ) "r• `',L.:7 s ~,;'- I -‘,..,%, , ICe e At..---/ i ....% .

Much WOOld/tuci on the word etreaiveand . Reti - trn in :that view by • the' jnspeding Officer. The Volunteer Force should - notrbe considered,in the same fight; or under the same regulations; as our Regular Force.. He him self-was an Officer of Volunteers, and a _Member Of Parliament; but in neither capacity did he knew that the efficiency of a Volunteer Corps dependedlipolv the Return of an Lisped* Officer. In the parka mentaT'y sense:oitha word ejAcient; as applied to - a Volunteer, _all,those were efficient who had attend- . ecl- the number of days' restribed by the Ad of Ru•liatiiebt; -Whether among these days of attetidance was the days 6f itispedion or not. The. Inspecting Of ficer bad no anthority to compel theVolunteersofany Corps to attend such days ; acid it might happen that' fewer attended on the day of inspedion titan otx ordinary da);s: Besides tip.±-re were many reasons - and circumstances; Which, wilen duly_ weighed, he was sure,, dissuade the. Noble Lord from pre:.;si his Motion in these wOrds; ionit would be impossible for any Enspedi agOfficer to make arty Return respect::" ing the greater or less number of efficient men, other 7 wis'e • than by'g4 - ing his. opinion.that such a particular Corps was better disciplined than another. The Noble Lord would also recoiled that the: Irish VolOnteee System was eery - different in its formation from that which Prevailed in Great l'oitain. To make the same order' far both must ,thereforeihe produCtive of con-. fusion, and render it impoSsibl6 to make an satis fadory Return. • We hoped, 'thOrefore, the y N'rOble_ Lord would so word his Motion , as to hlcinde only Great Britain, and to omit the Return by the Inspe6t ing Otbeer. • . . . - The Earl of ROSLYN6bserved, tliat there might be such an, infinite variety of. shades of difference be tween the greater or less degree of perfN:7 - :ion . in-dis cipline in this or that Volunteer Corps, that it wOukl ;beutterly impossible to make:any gencral*Return ac cording to the ;s 'efficient, in the sense uY whip.li he. supposed the Noble Lord to tinclenitand it.

His objeel, he coneeived, might be ans‘vereci by moving, and he should accordingly - move, that the proper Officer do lay befbre the - House an Ac count-of the number of Sbips.that.had cleared out from the. Po_ its •of, the British EMpire from.the year 79o to theyear 1804, distinguishing the -number in each year. , • And : that:. an, ACcount he also laid before. th e E.Touse of the number ofShips built in British Porta during the, same period, distinguishing likewise the' number in each 7.:ear. . Both these . AA; ' l `..twei-ag agreed to, Lord AUCKLAND rose, purscain to notice, ,to move for a Eill ofJra-il, unity in favour of ibex who advised or : permitted the opening of our Ports in the West - Addles to American Ships, laden with provi-j. ,sion, lumber, &c. It so happened; that since 'the year 1800 no. such Bill had been 'introduced, but most probably was overlooked'in the.changes 'of Ad= ministration which had taken place sincethqt perio 1, for none Of the Administrations that since had.comel into place had thought/ of including :it atii , :ng the expiringlaws. The - Noblo Lord then entered into' a survey of the Orions iMpOrtant advantages which our, Colonies derived from. America in time of war, especiallY in the article of provisions ; and, in ;his opinion,,it-W;s wise and politic to relax, , in favour *of the 'Americans, the severity of th e Navigation cud Plantation _Mits. Indeed it was almostimpossi ble for our West India Colonies, not only to thrive, but"even 'to exist, without-such .occasional supplies ; nor should - we look with:a jealous eye at. any. benefit - which the American Trade or Shipping. 'might reap from such an intercourse ;. he at leaSt should never feel any such grudge or jealousy, for certain he v.:l that any property America 'should -"acquire through that means must redound to the advantage ,of Great • Britain, who must grow with' the growth and strengthen with the strength of the Unite&States. The Noble Lord confirmed his opinion by a compa rative view of the amount of the exportation through -America' of the produce of English Manufaaures during ten years, the, last five of which .the amount of these exports had, nearly doubled: He concluded with rsoving for leave to bring in a Bill to inde m -. nify those Persons Who had advised or aHowecl the admission - of American Vessels-into our. West India Ports during' the'present war.. The Duke of 111ONTROSE could not view this intercourse in 'so advantageous, a light; he could not think the Americans had any right to such advan tages, especially in time of peace, which must prove prejudical to the shipping of Great Britain ; besides it was In ish ing•America with the facilities of smug- . gling from our India Possessions, and of injuring our trade in other branches. Lord HOLLAND entered into a variety of argu mentsto prove the necessity of such an intercourse. ,In his: opinion the Bill should have not only a retrn spedive but a prospe&ive operation. The' language held by the Noble Duke was 'N.:.ry ungracious re- ,4' •
