Several klditional ACcounts were presented ie speaing the Distillerieii in Scotland, 2 • An Account was Pre'sented, on The Motion of Sir JOHN NEN,yroaz of the new additional Duties on.

INVIA, Mr. •5t.11,17/.:lNobserved, that lie was prevent ed by indisposition from attending in his place ow a former night, when lie understood some allusions were Made to a near, and dear relation of_ his, an - Hon. Member, which - were unfounded and unjust.. He said the alluSions related to a transadion in \illicit the Governor of Madras ,and the Governor- , 6cueral of India Were at iSsue. The condua of his brother, be stated,, was disapproved by the Govern tnent of Madras, but was pronounced highly meri torious by the Governor-General. The Hon. Mem ber had said that his brother had conveyed .the se crets of the Government to the NA)ob, which was 14ntruc. He then proceeded to justify his relation, and moved for several [japers on the subjeEt.. Mr. IfiIITSILEI) :KEENE, said;on looking over the List of the Debts of the. Nabob .of the Car- vatic, he'referred Merely, to what was inserted in the,Paper, Which had had an etre& on his mind, and on which lie made hig former observations ; and was concerned if he gave pain to any Gentleman. Mr.SULLMIN said, after what he had stated to the .Hon. Gentleman, he trusted, he would have done justice to his brother, instead of which he ag. gravated . his former remarks. He then . proceeded to justify his conduCk, by leading Extracts from a . Pamphlet published on the subject. Mr. W. KENE explained. 'Mr. ELLISON contended, that when an indi vidual vas criminated, he had a right to bring for ward the best evidence lie had, and agreed thorough ly with what had been stated by the Hon. Gentle man who made the Motion. . • The Motion was then ptit and agreed to. Sir JouNNEwrout• said,,he should, on NiVeanes 7 day, submit a proposition to •the House, to e.stabliSh a free and unrestrained intercourse of all sorts of brain between Great Britain and Ireland. Alderman COMBS obtained leave to bring in a Bill to repeal the Additional Force Bill, as far as related to the City of London. Mr. PAULL moved for several India Papers; which was agreed to, after a few observations from Mr. Arthur Wellaey. The House resolved itself into a Committee - of Ways and Means for Ireland ; ,Mr. Parnell in the Chair. • Sir JomrNEWPORT moved, that there be a duty of one shilling per barrel laid on all _the Malt in Ire, land, to commence from the 2d of June next.. . And also a duty of four shillings, on every barrel . of Malt converted into spirits in . .. Ireland ; the amount of this Tax he estimated at 30,0001. Tire Motion was agreed to, and the Report was ordered to be received on Monday next.

Petition from the Owners of several 'British Ships. _ Both PetitiQns were ordered to he laid on the Table: LIMITED SERVICE. The Order of the Day a foroing into a Committee on the Mutiny Bill being read,ti The StCittlillY at Waal moved, that the Houk `do now resolve itself into the said Committee. Lord CASTLEREAGH,from motives of conve nience, would first put-tw o questions to the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite.. The first Was,_whether it was intended that bounties should be given for re enlistment at the expiration of the different periods of service ?' The other Was with regard to the pen- SionS, whether it was meant, at the expiration of 14 - yeali serViee, to allow what was called a half pen sion, or six-pence a day, and at the end of P. I yeai's 'service, the full, pension of one 'shilling a day ?- • Mr. Secretary WINDHAM replied, that the eat= 'pediency Of bounties for re-enlistment - would be- , come a matter of future consideration and reilula , tion. With respeet to pensions, he 'should be in- , dined to propose a lower at the expiration of i 4 - years service, and the full pension ,on the .comple tlon of the 2 1 years service. Lord dASTLEREAGHexpresSed himself unsa tisfied answer of the , as to t i ne bonnties,' and again inquired, whether he had it in contemplation to give any bounties on re enlistment, and to what amount, distin& from and independent of the 'reversionary allowances. Mr. Secretary WINDHAM thought it was too, much to ask of him, what was the amount of boun ty that would be given at a future period, she cir cumstances attending - which it was impossible to foresee. Mr. PERCIVAL Said,. that the Right Hon. Gen tleman mistook the questibn Of his NOble Friend,— It was not so much dire&ed to the amount of the bouhties; as to ascertain whether, or not it was in tended to give any bounty at allb Mr. WINDHAM answered, that prob !NI; it would be desirable to allow a bounty on re-enlist ment, but this, Or the amount of it, must be entirely governed by circumstances No one could predict what the service Might require. , Mr: CANNING corn plaited, that the Right Hon. Gentlemaii . et7aded the question of his'Noble Friend. The: Right Hon. Gentleman had, on a fo . rmer oeca sion, expressed his confidence, that at the periods of expiration of service most of the men woIN re-enlist. Did . he think that this effeet Would - be prOduced by the excellenCe of his plan alone,.withotq any exter nal ajplication whatever, or that it would bemece*- sary to reel-nit for those Men .again w,ith a bounty ? Mr. WINDHAM said, it is as true he had not answered ..yliat he could not answel% lie certainly conceived.som bounty - would be necessary, but it was itllooii* to say; how much. Nothing was binding in the present measure but that which re lated to the inimediate bal gain.- Me. 0'11.41L1 hoped .that it was . intende,l to take 'men for 7, 14, 2 1 years, or for life, just as they chose to engage,.and'tha a bounty commensurate to the length of their proposed se:vice should of course be allowed them. He trusted that no man would be refused in whatever way his services were offered, but that the terms of 'enlistment should, be adapted accordingly. He was proceeding, when - . The SPEAKER interposed, .observing that the question before the House Was merely for the corn r3ittal of the common Mutiny MI, no alteration of the nature alluded to having' hitherto been proposed. The House then resolved itself into a Committee,. Mr; ALEXANDER in thesCh.l:r. Several. of the clause's having been gone thrqugh , and agreed to-, • Mr., Yoxi.(n- asked what were the alterations in the hods , of the Bill ? The S'ECRETAEKat WAR Obseryed, that there Were none in the body. In the form of the oath to be taken by the recruit was contai s ned the proposed alteration. Mr. YOR . RE making some further inquiry, Mr. &cretary -IEINDHAAI rose to state; that in the' bath which he meant to propose fiir adop tion, it was intended to till up the blanks with a 'term of service of seven years in the" first place ;. of three years additional at His Majesty's pleasure, or three months after the conclusion of a peace. , In case reeruit was under 18 years of age, so many years to be added to the seven as were necessary to complete the 18. It was also intended. to propose, in Arlo, ther clause, that every soldier serving abroad en, titled to his discharge should be sent to Great Efi tain free of expence, and, on his landing, receive the accustomed marching_money, and that the same marching money should also, be allowed. to a sol= dier discharged Great Britain. These aiuses Would, put the House in possession 'di - the sy . tern which he wished to establish. It would be seen, that Whatever bargains : might be made for the present, it was intended . to : leave it in the power of the Legislature to vary them in - future.— This, he .trusted, 'would do a.tay the great alarm that had existed as to any irrevocable engagements of the State. Nothing that was_tb be proposed was irrevocable, but simply the faith pledged to the indi vidual who immediately entered:the service. EVery subsequent regulation was subject to the alteration, which circumstances might demand. In answer to the objeEtions that had been made against this' mea sure, he would not dissemble, that in this, as well as in every thing - else, a sacrifice must be made,_some- • thing must be given ,up to' get a great deal inore.--.L It was not, as had been stated by the Eldn., Gentle men opposite, a wanton innovation ; an attempt to mend that which was already well ; a hazardous ex : perinient, where no alteration was necessary. By , adopting the measure, we certainly should 'put our selves under the necessity of parting with .more than we could wish to part with. No one could deny, that 'to part with soldiers in time of war was objec tionable, unless it was done in the hope of,' obtaining a greater accession of strength. In this, as well as in every other trans:,6t:on, no advantage could be gained without paying a price for it. The same principle regulated the acquirement of wealth, and a man possessed of money Might,as Well be deterred trom hying out considerable sums in the hope of o!:tain , !nor.: considerable returns. As to she necessity
