Or re: AK.

la nor isroser Lanes rote tight Hon.
Windt .m. 1 h eve stated Ist CiUi'JO on the insuth-
ciency ;Le %Una and Volunteers, in their present
'beet ; and I have urged the necessity of int-
erning the Military System of this country. It is
on this impettam point that I humbly beg leave to
addcees Your Royal Highness.
Set before I proceed on this soh e&, I shall take
the liberty to observe, that as Government is about
to renovate the Volunteers, the system should be
meliorated and rendered mere efficient. The men
should be classed according to their age and oteu-
patioos, and a scale made to unite and consolidate
the approximating corps of each county, into bat-
talions, of a certaus and fixed number of men.
This mode of formation, which is very essential,
being once arranged, would afford facility of move-
ment, and promptitude of anion. I amof opinion that
every man should have possession of his own arms,
for the reasons I have already assigned in a former
letter, and that the exercise should lie in a very
narrow compass. Ifexemptioas are to be granted,
greater authority should be given to command, and
*certain degree of subordination should be esteb-
lis!.ed. The zeal, loyalty, and good intentions of
the Volunteers, will forward the views of Govern-
:tient ; at the same time, in the new arrangement, it
is requisite to adopt a more energetic plan than
what has hitherto existed. If this body of men is
to constitute our defensive force, there will be little
occasion for the Militia. We have armies spread
all over the universe, which must be maintained
and supported ; the empire can spare only a cer-
tain number of hands from its commerce and agri-
culture ; and it is folly in the extreme, to lock up
men, under the appellation of soldiers, in mere
expeetation of their being useful at some future
period. It would be thaught most truly ludicrous,
if twenty sail of the line, with a certain number of
frigates, were equipped, armed, and commanded by
officers, and manned by seamen, who were not sub-
iota to strifl naval regulations; and that this fleet
bhould only Farade at Spithead, or in some other
post, waiting for the arrival of the enemy. It were
needless to apply the analogy.

To improve the general system of the army,
tltere should be a strong and vigorous administra-
tion. It prepares troops for vittory and conquest,
aid proiiuces go 'd order and economy. But we
have tco many chiefs and too many departments,
w:-.ich has been the cause of so many strange chi-
meras and so much useless machinery. How can
any person who has not been trained so war, be
coevcrsazt with the essential points requisite in the
Maaagement of the Army? Every circumstance.
from the raising of men, to carrying them into
aSion, requires a prompt and decisive knowledge,
wit:4 which none but those who have been accus-
tomed to the profession of arms, can be acquainted.
The General who commands the Army, and who
should guide the whole administration of it, should
have a talent for sudden and happy resources f but
we haerratach a multiplicity of distinct offices. that
:Jerry clash wit!: each other, and tend only to retard
tne operations in eonduding the military pa* of the
I:overflow:. The sr`. •'e Army, and every thiug
ai,pertaining to it, snou.. oe under one Minister,
and divided into two departments. with a superior
to each &pertinent. Bar so tell: lent are all nations
to relinquish their old customs, that the best institu-
tines make their progress slowly in society ; and
aerefore it were vain for me to at range, to class, and
r.ppropriate the different services into these two
branches. There are too many interests concerned,
to admit of, such a sudden charge. Yet, I humbly
t:trok, that the btisiress of the Army might be con.
tra.aed into a ranch narrower compass, which woad
render it less d.ffuse, less tedious, cod less expensive;
w!iilst it would be productive of more attivity and
More energy.
fhe superior system of format...tn, administra-
tion, and legislation, established for the French
Army, has greatly contrihoted to the vieturies of
France. It is wise- to lollow the precepts even of
our enemies, if tlo v are conducive to the public
good. The Gati..s were perpetually conquered by
the Romans, without attempting to reuteve their

. -
losses by-any alteration in their discipline, or nun-
nee of fightink. The Turks a; e now an instance of
.• the same deg' ce •f obstina:y ; for it is neither in
,; courage, number, or ricl.es, 6ut in discipline and
!! order. that they are de:'eetive. Had the King of
Prussia taken a lesion from the mii.iortunes of

Atistria, pretedirg campaign, and adapted

ties of the ;Ancient schoni, he might have been

Marines, and East Infra Company. toßk upon their.
tespedive services as a profewaon ; and cheerfully
and ably pursuing it, never thirst of retiring, *nut
they ate rendered incapable of further exertion,
when Government provides means for their retreat.
And I can see no substantial reason, why the whole
army should not be placed under similar restrictions
and regulations. It may be asked, where mists the
fund to remunerate such Officers as have already
purchased their commissions? There are various
ways of accomplishing this great object ; but the
most effedual would be, for Government to appro-
priate a fund for that purpose. It is an import-
ant national concern; and although it may en-
croach upon the patronage resulting from it, aad
the interests of individuals, yet they should yield
to the many advantages that would arise from its
adoption. •
The Military Academy is a material step towards
forming scientific °Meer& ; and information thus
acquired, at the national expense, should not be lost
to the state. Men are mechanically equal. in the
ratio of their age and strength; but intelledually
they are widely different; and the fate of Empires
depends neon the abilities, discrimination. and ta-
lents of Officers ; therefore such rapid succession as
prevails in that part of our army, where the pur-
chase and sale of commissions are permitted, must
be injurious to the country.
It may be said, that this change of system wool.'
be a serious innovation—l am not of that opinion ;
it would certainly prevent jobbing; and I am
aware that all reforms must be touched in the most
delicate manner, an.l the plan well dige•ted, before
it be carried into execution. But there is not a mi-
litary man of rank, who must not have experienced
the great disadvantages which have resulted from
the purchase and sale of commissions; and this
evil has now arisen to such an excess, that it will
become, daily, more troublesome and prejudicial
to the service, if it be not checked, and ultimately
abolished.
_ _

The French Revolution has caused such a con.
rulbiou in the world, that I see not how it it to sub-
side, or be tranqnillised. These are turbulent
and we must be military, to maintain our independ-
ence; every exertion, therefore, should be used to
improve the Administration and Discipline of our
Army. The power of custom is frequently so ab-
solute, that, to depart from it, may be deemed a
ime ; however, I shall not bedeterre,l lowa bffering
my humble ideas on a subject, which appears to me
to be so essential and interesting, for the well ae
and happiness of my country.
