. .

Lord HAWKESBURY loosest the Orderof the Day, on
which their Lordships were soinnioned, and which was for the

IMMO Kadin of the
Klll.ll'll RMITTION BILL.

The Order being read ;
Lord HAWK 1...511: RY again rose, and stated,
that after the thorough and repeated discussions the
subject had hitherto undergone, it would not be ne-
cessary for him to take up much of their Lord-
ships' time, or to enter into any general consi•
derations of the subjeet. He would first observe,
that when the immense number of men who
were in arms in this country was considered, their

Lordships would soon be aware that no mili-
tary force whatever could be mote respeaable
than that of the United Kingdom. The only dif-
ference of opinion which could arise, was as to the
arrangement and composition of this force, and the
most effeaual means of increasing the disposeable
force ut the country. There was a general admis-
sion that this description of our military force
should, under the present circumstances, form a
much Luger proportion, particularly with respell
to infantry, of the whole, than it did at present.
The object of the bill now before their Lordships
was to effect that ; and the principal question which
could arise, was as to the means adopted. The
mode proposed by the bill, was to allow a certain
proportion of the militia forces to volunteer into the
regular forces, and into the Royal Marines. It
should be considered, that the present militia esta-

blishment was calculated without a reference to a
volunteer force, at the immense amount at which it
stop I at present. The principle of reducing the
militia had been more than once recognised by Par-
liament, especially by the aifl of lst session, and die
question that remained, therefore, was, whether,
under all the circumstances of the country, it would
not greatly conduce to the public benefit, to permit
men to volunteer from the militia into the regulars,
under the restrictions proposed by the Bill, so as to
encrease our disposeable force to the desired amount.
He was a real friend to the militia system, but, he
must contend, that on true militia principles, the
present number and proportion of that force were
too great to he kept up. The present state of the
militia, with resped to its officers, was also a matter
of serious consideration, and is these a great defici-
ency, to an aggregate, he believed, of between 400
and 500, particularly of officers duly qualified,
at present existed. The present Volunteer system
not a little contributed to affea the officering of the
Militia. Ibis latter force, with a reference to the
true Militia principles, should not be suffered to ex-
ceed 40.000 men. That principle admitted, the
mode of redultion was comparatively of little im-
portance ; the execution of the present measure was,
in the first instance, confided to Militia Officers
themselves, who, he trusted, would feel the great
public importance of the duty entrusted to them.
A measure similar to the present was adopted in the
course of the last war, but destitute of the advan-
tageous provisions of the present Bill. The steal
importance of its objet being generally admitted,
he trusted its details would, on discussion, in the re-
gular opportunity, be found equally unobjedionable.
Any farther commentary on the merits of the mea-
sure he should leave to other Noble Lords more con-
versant than himself in the particular subjeet. He
should now content himself with moving their
Lordships to give a second reading to the Bill.

The Marquis of BUCKINGHAM could not
give a silent rote upon the occasion. He denied
that any similitude existed between the present Bill
and that alluded to, as enacted during the late war ;
there was then an imperious duty upon them so to
enact, and the circumstances of the Count' V Were
widely different as to its defensive situation and the
naval power of the enemy ; the present measure
would, he contended, prove inefficacious, and it was
odious and disgusting to the Militia officers in ge-
neral ; and all the milit try measures of the present
Ministers were injurious to the Militia system. In
the former instance, the Militia were in number too
great and unwieldy to be concluded t n true Militia
principles, and the preamble of the Bill he Alluded
tn, declared that a greit defensive force was no
longer neussAry in the country.; There existed at
that time ;lista a legal necessity for diminishing the
Militia. In all these particulars the country was at
present in the reverse, or in a very different state,
and Ministers themselves must feel, that the defens-
ive force of the country could not be safely dimi-
nished. file measure, taking it in every point of
view, had his decided disapprobation.
The Earl of DERBY followed on the same side,
and supported the arguments tit the Noble Marquis
at some length. Ile censured the measure in ques-
tion as unjust in its principle, and unlikely to pro-
dem the desired Area. It was a miserable expedient
to think of robbing one branch of the military force
to supply another. Some of the provisions of the
Bill would tend to defeat its objed ; and it was idle,
he conceived, to think of procuring 17,000 men by it.
In illustrating this position, the Noble Earl entered
into some detailed considerations of the measure.
What must Bonaparte think, on seeing us driven to
such a shift to procure a disposeable force to that
amount He deprecated the rejedinn of His Right
Hon. Friend's idea (in another place) of not en-
listing the men for life. Adverting to the general
miscondu.fl of Ministers, he glanced at the recent
successes of the enemy in the West Indits. He
imagined that 40,000 men, as the extent of the
Militia, was as wady as could be kept up on true
Militia principles, aid he considered what fell from
the Noble Secretary as a sort of pledge, that such a
number of Militia forces were to be kept up. There
were a zeal arid spirit in the country, if properly
d;reded, adequate to all its exigencies ; and an
abundant disposeable force to be obtained, were
proper means resorted to. It was impossible not to
perceive that the Militia Officers in general were
disgusted with the present measure. A great
deal of the military difficulties, which the country
at present laboured under, particularly in regard to
inlisting men, was to be aut ibuted to the conduit of
the late Minister, new a Member of that house.
After the treaty at Amiens, had v different line of
condud been adopted with resped to the militia, its

- .
nbrnbers might easily and cheaply have been cons-
pleated, and kept up, by means of the numerous
discharges from the other branches of the national
force. With the Noble Marquis, he generally and
strongly disapproved of the present measure, and
censured the policy as weak and dangerous, which,
in the present circumstances of this country, went
to diminish her defensive force.

The Earl of BUCK INGHAMSHIRE supported
the Bill, and replied particularly to that part of the
Speech of the Noble Earl who spoke last, relative to
the part taken by his Noble Ft laid near him (Lord
Siimnuth), whom the Noble Earl had accused of
being the cause of the necessity of raising these men.
He insisted that at the period of the peace, the Mi-
litia were not reduced more than was absolutely ne-
cessary for a peace establishment, and that as to the
regular army, not a man was taken from it. He de-
fended the different measures of that administra-

Lion, of which he formed so considerable a part,
both as to the increasing the Militia by the Supple-
mentary body, and the regular army by the Army
of Reserve, as measures which were absolutely ne-
cessary, from the peculiar circumstances of the
times ; and on the same ground he justified the prin-
ciple of the present Bill, which was intended to
raise a very considerable disposeable force at the
very instant when imperious necessity so forcibly
called for it. He denied that the French had a de-
cided superiority of naval force in the West Indies,
and had no doubt but a very short time would bring
us convincing proofs of it.
The Earl of DERBY explained.
Lord BORRINGDON expressed himself ex-
tremely sorry to be obliged to differ on the present
occasion from some Noble Lords near him, for whose
talents and judgment he entertained the highest re-
sped. He must, however, on this question, say, that
under the existing circumstances of the country, a
large disposeable force was nighty desirable, and he
could not devise any method by which it could be
more easily or more effeetually raised, than by tak
irg them from the Militia, which was universally
allowed to be in the highest state of discipline, and
would of course give a body of men to a certain
amount, far superior to any that could possibly be
raised by any other method.
Lord CANDOR differed entirely from the Noble
Lord who spoke last, and thought the Militia, as a
most Constitutional defensive force, ought to be held
sacred. A pledge to this effect had been given in
1799, and Ministers then promised that the same
measures should never again be resorted to. This
promise was, nevertheless, disregarded in the pre-
sent instance, and the Militia was once more to be
deprived of its best and most disciplined men.
Such a mode of proceeding he could not approve.
He was very much attached to the regiment of
Militia he had the honour to command, and he flat-
tered himself there was an equal attachment on their
parts towards hinoself, and he thought it very hard
' that, after they bad attained to such a state of disci-
pline, they should in this su Men manner be taken
away from the adhsal internal defence of the coun-
try. Ile should therefOre vote against the Bill.
The Earl of WESTMORELAND supported
the Bill, and insisted that all the arguments which
had been advanced against its principle were found-
ed in fallacy. The original Act for raising the
Militia in this country was paced in the 32d of the
late King, in consequence of certain rebel forces
having some years previous thereto marched
into the very heart of the kingdom. The original
term for which the men were to serve was three
years, and then they were entitled to their discharge,
but were at liberty to enlist into the regular army ;
and, in fact, the chief intention of the militia was
to give as many men as possible a knowledge of the
use of arms. This being the case, it was certainly
highly proper to avail ourselves of it in the present
instance. A considerable disposeable force was on
all hands allowed to be necessary ; and as Noble
Lords on the opposite side had repeatedly assented
to the opinion, that the militia ought not to exceed
its original number, which was 40,000, and as it
did v, ry greatly exceed that number in the present
moment, he must contend that no mode of raising
men could be so desirable as that proposed by die
present Bill; and as such it had his most cordial
approbation and support.
The Earl of CA RN ARVON trusted Parliament
would not be inclined to put down a force which was
AS loyal and AS ready to resist a common enemy as
any in the country. Ile their adverted to the ex-
pence that the people were at in raising a force of
190,000 men, which was, he said, the wordier raised,
including the Army of Reserve. A Noble Earl .op-
posite him (the Earl of Westmotelandi h.o.i throOn
out a threat which he thought he understood the
meaning of; it was to influence the Noble Lords,
who, like himself, held places, that they should not
vote as their principles direntd. but that they
should, at their ppeeril, support he Minister
The Earl of ESTMOR ELAN D explained,
and said no such threat was intended to be thrown
out by him.
The Earl of CARN A RVON, in reply, said, that
even what the NAP :tart hail said could not re-
move the impression made on his mind.
The Duke of NIONTROSE took a review of
former opinions of his own on the snbjed, and con-
cluded, by saying, he thought the exigency of the
time required that the present step should be taken.
The Earl of SUFFOLK declared his intention of
opposing the Bill.
The Earl of CAMDEN, after observing on the
effed produced by the Defence Bill, argued on the
necessity of having a disposeahle force, and, there-
fore, that this measure should be adopted.
The Earl of ROMNEY, after hearing from ail
parts of the House the praises of the Militia and
their officers, was much astonished at the reward
they were to receive; the men were to be sent out
of their native country, and the officers, who were
all men of property, were to he stripped of the
troops they had themselves trained for the purpose
of defending that property and their country. lie
concluded by saying, as he could not see any imme•
diate necessity for the measure, he would oppose it.
The Earl of CARLISLE opposed the Bill, and
said he did not think there could be a stronger proof
of the total failure of what was called the Parish
Bill, than the measure now before the House.
The question being loudly called for, the (louse

Sir J. NEW PORT, on moving for the second
reading of the bill for establishing asyla for rbe
support of lunatics in Ireland, thought it pt riper to
observe, that the Committee upon this subject, rf
which he had the honour to be President,
ported. in June last, that the Grand Juries ci %e-
-land negletted to comply with the ad of the 27th iet
His present Majesty, empowering them to make
provision for establishing places, annexed to the
Houses of Industry, for the accommodation of In-
natics and ideots. He then read many parts of the
report, which stated, that even where there way
charitable contributions for that purpose, the
pences of the accommodations very far exceeded the
funds for their support—and, what he chiefly pro
posed for giving security to that necessary ale,
was, that the establishments should he under
inspeetion of the Judges upon circuits—and the+
report of the eapences incurred should be annually
laid before Parliament, together with the proccesi.
ings of the Trustee's.
Mr. MAY thought that the ner,lcd of the Grad
Juries to exercise the powers given them unda
the 21th of the King, chapter 26, section 5, was
not a sufficient ground for the measure now proposed,
which he considered as no more than a tautology.
Being averse from a bill, which enabled LordsLiett.
tenant of Ireland to go to any espence in the era-
tlon of places for the maintenance of a thousand
mad Irish, he should propose, as an amendment,
that the bill should be read a second time this day
six months.

Lord DUN LO hoped the Hon. Bart. would not
press the second reading of the bill on this day, but
defer it till after the assizes in Ireland, in order vs
give the Grand Juries an opportunity of considering
it. lie expressed seieral objeaions to the provisiom
of the bill. as the distance of the asyla from each
other would take the patients so far nom their
former residence, and sometimes 50 or GO miles away
from the visits or inspeftion of their friends ; and,
in that part of the county (Derry) which he had the
honour to represent, he saw no strong symptoms rf
extraordinary madm-ss, which could induce him to
vote against the amendment.
Col. BAGWELT. animadverted on the Maas
sistency of the Noble Lord, who began by memo-
ing a wish, that the bill should be delayed till the
assizes were over, and afterwards concurred in a
motion ler its total rejettion. He highly apposed
of the object it proposed, as there was a vast now
her of those objects to be seen swarming in every
part of Ireland. -
Mr. ALEXANDER said. that though he op
proved of the outline of the measure, he must els
je4l to the mode in which the casket was proposed to
he accomplished. He thought the bill drawn up
hastily and inctaeocmciur,ririacttaehtleeed,
aaztnel,nectiliiiitnnu,,lediuyts.:einnHohoeneciteosststry
floirereatielretk,isvo
another bill world be brought in, which would be
better adapted to the purpose.
Sir J. NEWPORT replied, that all the objefiinss
made to the bill appeared to him mote appliatleto
a Committee. It was notorious, that the il:t of the
27th of His Majesty had been neglacted, and : 4
the returns of the Grand Junes of Cork, Let:t-
rick, Waterford, Ennis, and most of the mi. :
counties, were a negative to the proviiions mid:
by it. With regard to the power of the Lord Li. ..
tenant, it was confined to the original direttne , .1
the inspection, detail, and regol.itions, went.. i
under the controul of the Judges at the assizes. ile
declined sincerely to the House, that the ohj A i
that, or any other measure he should propoie, ire
not meant ar a patty job, or a provision her any iris
victual, hut purely founded on the report of lilt
Committee. lf, however, the 'lnuit should tut
iiiiiiit proper to assent to the motion, he hoped the
'I louse would take care that the Grand Juries shortie
be compelled to make returns of the rovirinni .iin
should make, in compliance with MC AO of the
i7tla of His Majesty.
Sir G. HILL expressed himself against the billy
which hr thought to be unnecessary, when sutficint
powers were already given to the Grand Juries.
!Mt. LEN: said he would oppme the peseta hat
boa was ready to support any other, whisk "old
accomplish the sante olijeas in a better manlier.
Col. FITZGERALD thought the law at preast
competent to attain all the ohjees of the bill.
Sir J. NEwPoßir said, that finding the sem' ,i
the House to be against the Bill, he sh-we 1 het
leave to withdraw it, hut not with the intent et li
bringing in another.
The Amendment was then „agreed to, that iht

upon this subject. They were grounded

The very prints, however, that were the

and description of the French force, whose

It is not improbable that we shall coma in fur a conflagration
should the enemy's squadron proceod on to St. Domingo. The
Cork fleet has arrived, and part of them are now sailing to fire
Leeward Islands."

General PREVOST is supposed to have 900 men in
Prince Ruperts, and the French force did not ex:eed
'2,000. Making, then, only fair allowance for the
superiority of British valour, and the advantage
of situation, we may exped that he will be able to
make a formidable resistance. We yesterday an-
nounced a report of his having received a reinforce-
ment of 500 men from Barbadoes, and repuls-d
the enemy in three several attacks, but we
have nut since learned any circumstances in
confirmation. It appears certain, however, that
three days had'elapsed after the surrender of itoseau,
without any new advantage gained by the enemy.
There is strong reason, therefore, to hope that he
will be able to hold oat long enough to receive
succour from some of our other Islands. The great
danger is, that they may have to provide for their
own safety, and cannot afford to help their friends.
It is evident that a part only of the squadron has
proceeded against Dominica. What then is be-
come of the rest ? Antigua, St. Lucia, Su-
rinam, Demerara, are all probable ohjeAl of
iettack ; and, should the Toulon fleet come fresh
into the cc ntest, the enemy may be able to sweep all
our West India Colonies. Some think that the at-
tack on Dominica is only A feint to draw our atten-
tion entirely to that quarter, while the other part pro-
ceeded to cruise off Barbadoes, for the purpose of
intercepting the fleet, which, they had received intel-

1..

ligence, was on its passage. This fleet sailed from
Cork on the 27th of January, was off Madeira the
I2th of February, and might be expeaed to be off
Barbadoes the first week in March. It has on hoard
between 3 and 4000 troops, and AR immense supply
of plantation and other stores, &c. for Jamaica and
the other Islands. We fear too Admiral COCRRAIRE
would not arrive at Barbadoes in time, for letters
have been received from several of the Officers in
his fleet, dated on the 4th and sth of March, off the
Rock of Lisbon, where he remained till the 9th,
about which time the Cork fleet would be off Barba-
does.

We have been. favoured with the following ea-
craft of a letter from an officer on bo.trd one of
His Majesty's Frigates. tilted off Brest. Match :

" On the 27th the French !teat of Twenty-one Sad of the
lame, Five Fr gates, and One Cortette, cone out of Brest,
and anchored in Bertheaume Road. We fired three shot at one
of their frigates, which was not returned. Our little squadron
was Patriot by rho Co‘ensis and Bellerophon. We resounds:trod
them very closely, awl dispatched a cutter in quest of the
Fleet. At half-past eleven we woe also sent is quest of them;
and at half-past three, T. re. sisok • the Admiral Sir Charles
COWIN haring fifteen sail of the line and the two before-
mentioned ships. At live, the rsdrnital mule the signal to
prepare for action. At a quarter.past oi, made the signal to
carne to the wind nn the starboard tack, and stee•ed towards the
N.W. leaving the Latrine, Diamond, Phrenie, two brigs awl
• cutter, to watch their m•.niom. After dark we mistimed the
frigates until poet six this morning, seeing the whole of them
still at anchor, and not nue of our ships in sight.
N.B. The French Fleet are now gettmg under weigh,
thirty-two minutes toast nine o'clock, and, I should suppo.s.,
are going into Brest.

It is reported that Lord Gar son ice will not take
any part in the discussion of Viscount MEL% I LLes

The person who behaved so ill at the House of
Lords, and whose miseondult engaged the attention
of their Lordships, was, we understand, in the
service of Lord Se. ASAP:I. He is charged with
having struck several persons belonging to the

By private letters, we learn, that M. BATZ, De-
puty for the States of Wirtemburgb, at Vienna,
was arrested there im the requisition of the Eleetor
of Winrestio:NOH, being accused of a conspiracy,
of which it waL: the objea to assassinate the aucTos,

Vienna. Both of these Gentlemen are unfriendly
to the Ei.Ecruit, who lately demanded that they

was refused at the time.
A Court of Common Council was held at Guild-

10 Aldermen, and a numerous meeting of Com-
moners.

The Court proceeded, pursuant to the notice on
their summons, which was inserted upon a requisi-
tion by Iti members, to take into consideration the
Plan for enlarging Smithfield market, when Mr.
WAITHMAN moved the question, and was ably sup-
ported by Mr. SAMUEL DIXON. An amendment
was moved upon it by Mr. SLADE, to take in
the plan for making a grand street feria the
end of Fleet-market inwards the North Read,
and combining it with the enlargement of
Smithfield-market in the proposed bill to be
brought before Parliament; and, after a long and
very roteresting debate, in which several members
'pined, particularly Mr. Commas PRICE, Mr. Alder-
man PIIINCLP, MT.DtpULT WA DO, and Mr.l)eputy

stands referred to the Committee for letting the

were thrown into one upon the occasion, and light.

His Royal Highness the Duke of Yortic gives a
grand dinner at his house in Portman-square next
Monday.
The Duchess of DsvoNsxne, we have great plea-
sure to state, is recovering so fast from her late in•
disposition, that in a few days she will venture to
take the air.

The LORD MAYOII has announced a grand din-
ner on the 15th of April.
Marquis Couto at.t.is will leave London next
Wednesday for Portsmouth. The Marquis and

The Honourabie Mr. and Mrs. Kunz left their
house in Upper Brook-street yesterday for Cam-
bridge, and last night their Steward entertained
their tradesmen and several of his own friends, to
the number of sixty, with an elegant supper. The
tables were laid out with great taste, and the glass
ssfas often filled to the health% of the owners at the
hospitable board, who delight in making their do-
mestics happy. The greatest decorum and pro-
priety prevailed.
On Monday last, Major CAMESSIL received
an elegant sabre, presented to him by the non-
commissioned officer, and privates of his com-
pany, bearing the following inscription on the
blade : this sabre is presented to ALEIAN.
DER CAMPBELL, Esq. of Glenfalloch, Major of the
st regiment Ayrshire volunteer infantry, by the
non-commissioned officers and privates of his com-
pany, as a zmuk of their esteem and regard for him
as an officer and a gentleman."
The new Glasgow Theatre being now finished,
was lighted up on Wednesday sennight, for the in-
speEtion of the Subscribers only. The neatness
of the design, the elegance of the execution, and
the taste displayed in the decorations and scenery,
met with universal approbation, and do great
credit to the gentlemen of the Committee as well
as to the mechanics and artists. The tort en-
smile was truly beautiful. In size and elegance,
we believe it inferior to none nut of the metro-
polis. There are two complete rows of boxes, a
capacious pit, a very large two shilling gallery, and
a small one above for the gods. The house, it is
calculated, may hold about 5001.

The child we stated yesterday to have been stolen
on the preceding day from the Temple wa' found
on the same evening in a ditch. huff filled with
water, at Lambeth, with no covering but its flannel
petticoat, and very much bruised. It is supposed
the wretch conceived she had killed the child when
she threw it in the ditch, and her intention would
have succeeded, had it not been found befo!e the
commencement of the night. It is hoped the srme
interposition of Providence will discover the perpev
