end these were detached from the India and China static; a
Gate which was felt to be utterly Inadequate. He held in
his baud lettere from Admiral Koppel and Captain
Pittlothld. Ia which they expreseed a Meting opinion of
the weevily al Amdralli being made • wpm!, naval station.
Sir 0. NAPIBH std tte following amendment, namely.
"That as the First of 44t Admiralty has slated that
the coast-guard slats are comparatively useless, the time is
arrived when they ought to be replaced by efficient
ships." The gallant admiral made some remarks
In support of Ms proposition, but ft wan difficult
to catch their exact purport. He wee understood to
recommend that the nine block-dips should be replaced b
the vessels which formed the second reserve, and which
might be manned with the coast-guard volunteers. These
would be as good u nine additional gad of the line added 10
our Channel Beet, and would bring it up to sixteen sail of the
line. Be alto recommended that the that reserve be sent to
Pea; and we should thus have something hie a respectable
Channel Gest, for it would number 26 or 26 sail of the line.
He really could not imagine why the right hon. baronet
should waist In retaining in the service versals which he
adatited to to useless. He (Sir C. Napier) need to biome
the House of Commons; but the house had this year down
a dispositiin to refuse nothing for the purpofe of placing our
marine &fences in a adstactory condition. If that wee not
done the fault must be with the Board of Admiralty, which
not turn to the beet account the materials placed at
their disposal. The gallant admiral also sated when it was
the Intention of the government to pat in force the recom-
mendations of the commission on manning the navy? He
was afraid that the report of the commissioners would be
simply pat Into a box and hided up like the report of 1852.
Mr. YOUNG wished to thank the noble lord for bringing
the defendelen slate of the Australian colonies before the house,
end to corroborwe all that ha had said on that subject. At the

had 1,300 miles of seaboard, and oonsidering bow easy
their harbours were of east, be thought that their anxiety
was not tumattuah Daring the Ruston war they felt that
they were left pretty much to fhe chapter of incident., and
se soon as hostilities became Imminent, they met to consider
the most pendent coarse for securing their gold.
Slr 3. PAKINOTON, in reply to Load A. Churchill,
said he agreed that the Australian oolokiaa had a r:ght to
every possible consideration at the hands of the imperial
government. He did not admit that their naval peotect,on
wee inadequate ; at all sunk, Ike protection was such more
efficient now than wbenhe took office. As to the erect on of
a naval station, since be had been at the Admiralty he bad
beta is communiostoa With the Colonial government as to
the establishment of a naval More upon an Wand in the
neighboarbosd of Sidney. With tepid to the motion of
Sir C. Napier, he said be bad been m4hhdrstood es to the

miralty was earnestly directed to the state of oar naval de-
fences. lie whined (in reply to ri question put by Sir
Charles) the intentions of the government respecting the
mormmendations of the commiadon fur manning the navy.

short, I think I an now predict, seat with coati-
dthce, that your royal highaeas's Mahe with respect to the
return of certain regiments may be socomplithed early in
the spring without real incesvedenos to this country. I
thould eerie that it may be pueblo to dispense with the
86th from Bombay, the oldest regiment from Madras and
from this presidency, in addition to the four shady ordered
to England by your royal highner. A. the Bengal Light

should lice that the 9th Lancers might also nears hone.
Perhaps It ought not he sale to extend redeem further he

He knew that there was an anxiety to hew what regiments
would be likely **return home next year, sad he would
theorise, for thth. eatisfactics, eta e that 'the 9th Lancers,
the 10th Foot, the 29th. 92nd, 63rd, 78th, end 84th regi-
ments, would return. The eater Indian establishment
would the rand thus : 11 regbienie of cavalry and 66 of

that the regiments than would return be any
