get quit of bisA
our can ;ond Ministers he of use to the cottiatry.--e
The great clamour that has bteu raised against use,
beim:es me now to sate my reasons fur the opinion
Clot I hod formed. A day or two prior to giving
that opinion. I became acquainted with this fact, I
perceived that the public expenditure in 1808 wits
71,e0e,0001._ and that in 1809, it amounted to
73,000,0001. and this great increase induced me to
make the assertion 1 then made. I shall now state
the particular points in which this vast expenditure
might he greatly decreased ; and the first one to
which 1 shall cull the atteution of the I louse, is in
regard to the household troops, the regiment of
horse guards, called the Blues, consisting of 654
men, earl the other two regiments of horse-guards.
consisting of 831 men. Properly ',peeking, the
Blues are perfectly sufficient for parole; and in-
deed it eery be said, that 500 horse err much more
than can ever be brought into any kiwi of use for
that purpose. The number of cavalry kept up for
home service exceeds what can be possibly wanted.
The Dragoon Ouardsamou et to 23,09 men, and yet
I Isere heard it stated be military meat, that 13.000
dragoons were equal for any the; that could Ise
wanted in this country, in addition to our force
etetioned in the East belies. I think that there
might he a reduction of that force to that number,
and in courequence effect a great reduction of the
expense, which at present amounts to 1,9.77,61101.
besides the expense of their horse appoietments,
and other voloingencies. The next poiiit to which i
tshell dr.w the attention of the House s that of
foreigu corps, which consist of 24,978 men, and,
with the attillete, horse :fed font, they amount to
24.570 men. The expense attending these :ten is
30040,0001. aeyear—e3,49o of them being:se valry. Iu
such a House of Ccittimons as th rt I should wish to
see, 1 will maintain, that that is a species of force
that could never be suffered to exist in this country.
That illustrious clieruc:er. Lord Cliathum, thought
it necessary, even in the vocal 1757, to send all the
foreign troops out of the country, and that, too, at
a moment when the bugbear of iimasion was or,
foot, as lie believed it a most unconstitutional
farce. tam one of those that do believe it to be sr, ;
and that a free and independent House of tom.
mons would not vote a single guinea toward, it.
I do not wish at all to throw any reflection tionn
WI! part of that force in particular ; bat if Gen-
tlemen will recollect some circionstences of the
expeditions to Quiberun, to Malta, and to other
places, they would nut be very partial to that spe-

I tutu refer you to tee opinion of one Officer. high
in His Majesty's service, I mean Sir Rt. Warms, who
found himself in a perilous situation in consequence
of their condole. Another twitter to he complained
of eas the hiving time offieero of those foreign troops
put over the head of officers of the British troops,
whiele in my opiaion, furitiohee a very weighty
reason why throe foreign troops ought not to be
employed. The Royal Staff Corps,' is smother
totablishmento of late years, which is a very expen-
sive one, for, as it appears from the accounts laid
upon the table, it cost formerly 20,0001. a-year,
but when the papers I shall more for are produced,
it will appear to be a very expeiaa're esta4lishineut
They-tient a-palref the Engineer Corps,

tional EnitflinT. The next cirentustatiee to which I.
niean to draw the attenti.ei of the public, is the
11.1:litia of. Great Britain and Ireland, which costs
us au expense of nearly three million* of money.
Wv re Only one-hull of the militia allowed to be out

The voleeteers, in 1700, served asirhout pay or

are also the opinions of Sir Robert Wil-on, who has

He thinks that every householder ?should keep a
steel of arms in good order, and every iudividnal

military clothing is not necessary for them.
The expense of the Halal Waggou Corps is stated

Probably a million of looney was intended to be sunk

then that fur which it was intended. No liestrfit

tioo where soldiers could protect it. It is a feet
that I can prove, that uu such fortifications are ne-
cessary. A . military reed has heel le in

ing up, and another making in Scotland, and

injudicious plan that is pursued, it will be plough.
ed op also, and another made in Wales. As to
the Commissariat, we have heard too much of
late concerning it to live any favourable opinion
of it. The evidence of Sir A. 1V elle.ley was suf-
ficient to inform ill. 'file carrot! of it stomata' to
1,543,7051. ; and out of that stun I should propose
to save 500,0001. a-ye ar by a proper establishment.
The next item is that of barracks.which amounts to
764,94.21. for Eligiund and Ireland. It is a curious
fact. that, in Ireland, although new barracks were
built, yet they were not occupied. By erectitsgi
temporary barracks. instead. of isicreasiog the num-
ber of new ones, a saving of 350,0001. a-year might
he made to the country. These might also be a
saving of 135,0001. a-year in the clothing of the
artny, by adopting the ',lan of public, instead of
private entitr,,ct. The next staving I shell propose,
is upon the collection of the Revenue, both in the.
Post-Othce and the Customs ; the expense of
the former had iucreastd much since Mr. Palmer
held th;t department, ty:in h must be owing to had
management ; and in regard to the latter, patronage
and expense had increased much of late years.
Before the London Docks were erected, there were
only seven lauding surveyors of the customs,
and instead of the lenritiess being simplified. there
were more added ; more hands being employed
.than ix necessary, a great saving might be
effected by their redaction. In the collection o
the Window Light Duty, the Malt Duty, the
Land Doty, and the Assessed Taxes, Lean
'Mew that a very important saving might be effected.
There is a RUM or 11. 12s. yd. per cent. allowed for
the collection of the Esti... ; hut putting patron-
age oat of the question, three per cent. would be a
fair allowance. If' this rednetioa was made. there
would he a saving to the politic or 1,031,9301. a-
year. lam not afraid of tutetistg this subject at
any time it may be thought couvenient to discos,
it. If the taxes in Ireland were collected upon the
same terms with those of Great Britain, there
would be 4 saving to that country of 204,8991. a-
year. 'Chem is one more head to which I beg leave
to call you. attention, and that is the Post-Office.
The excess of expenditure in that departatent may
be stated iit 60 per cent. There is another little
item. that of expresses to Ireland. They were
ad•rt 44 4,4 dee time of the rebellion, at whi,...tv"
period alone they were necessary; but they have
beau continued ever since, stutwithstauding that
the necessity is done away. The next head to
which I shall advert is, that of' the Commissiomrs
for auditing Public Accounts. It is the duty
of this Hume to pay attealion to Hume accounts, instead
of towirg the peop:e to eadcavour to save what will meet
the ex,thases of the Goverameut. The bahnsee in the
