The Order being read, which was one of those

going into a Committee on the above Bill, the
Venue resolved itself into the same accordingly,

Which before generally prevailed. He censured it
. ali ',Willa& groonds ; chiefly on its being not only
sammelsory, but highly injurious to the state of
abseipliee, and well-being of the army ; and, also,
as such a general legislative provision trenching
es. she Royal Prerogative. The customary Oath
introduced into the Mutiny Bill, he considered
of a civil nature and operation, and no way
sighing His Majesty's Prerogative. There were
bet two instances of an attempt of the kind
Wag made before ; one of these was during
the Administration of Lord Bolingbroke, in 1712 ;
and the second was moved by the late Mr.
Thomas Pitt, in the year 1750. He admitted
the Royal Prerogative had, in some instances,
been altered, and, perhaps, upon ;ust and sufficient
rounds ; but is had never been attacked in such a
general and extensive manner, is by the present
till,and which was rendered the more censurable, as
the attack was by a side wind. On occasions of
real necessity. no Prince had ever shewn a greater
readiness to sacrifice considerations of prerogative
to those of the welfare of his subjects. His Lordship
then went into a variety of calculations, with a view
to shew, that the effeft of the provision would be
injurious to the Recruiting service; and instead of
eventually increasing, would go to diminisn, the
somber of the army.—He particularly dwelt upon
the peculiar cite-sawyers at the country, wish
respell to its distant Colonial possessions--in which
view, the discharges on the expiration of the terms
of years, may prove destrutive, and he instanced
seine cases. wherein, to a considerable extent, the
unlion:ed service was preferred by those who
entered —He deprecated all schemes and spe-
sutations, especially in the present state of the
country. in which measures should be cautious-
ly adopted, and en the surest grounds. lie con-
'lured any regulations which tended to introduce a
. state of citizenship among the soldiery ! and ope-
rated, as he coatende i that ander consideration,
eventually would, to disorgadme the army. That
the regulation would operate injutiously, as well in
point of f .1! rt:c economy, as is every other point of
view, was plain from the consideration, that sol-
diers, when their times were expired, instead of re-
entering Iwo their own corps, would enlist in other
tegiinehts, and so obtain the full bouuty. After ad-
