tion of £1,000,113, as compared with last year, being
£15,060,237 to £16,060,360. A considerable sum, above
a million, was introduced into the estimates for the auxi-
liary
forces, the militia, yeomanry, volunteers, and pen-
sioners; and the estimates also included the ordnance, in
which was to be taken £680,000 for guns applicable to the
navy. There was also a considerable increase in extraor-
dinary expenses for the army stationed in China, New Zea-
land, and North America. The principal reduction this
year was under the votes for stores, owing to great exertions
in the manufacturing departments of late years, besides
which, as ex eriments with ordnance were going on it had
been determined not to manufacture guns to any extent fur
the present. The house was asked for 148,212 men, as com-
pared with 152,403 in last year, being a decrease of 4,000,
which was effected not by reducing any battalions, but by
withdrawing 100 men from each battalion, except those in
Ceylon and the regiments going on foreign service. He
pointed out that, with the peculiar distribution of our army,
it was not possible to reduce the number of men so as to af-
ford a just system of foreign reliefs. There was an increase
of £198,000 for the volunteers this year, which was caused
by a compliance with some of the Royal Commission which
inquired into the subject. There was an addition of
£35,000 for the charge for the militia, chiefly for clothing.
In other items there was no change, or, if any, it was in the
direction of decrease.

The first vote of 148,242 men was then put.
Mr. WILLIAMS moved the reduction of the number of
men by 10,000.
On a division the amendment was lost by 77 to 19.

The vote was agreed to.
On the vote of £5,709,733 for the pay of general staff and
regimental pay and allowances,
General PEEL moved a reduction of the vote by £38,000
for the pay of two native Indian regiments in China; but
on a division the amendment was lost by 64 to 58.
Sir M. PETO moved the reduction of the vote by
£225,136, the increase of the sum charged this as compared
with last year.
On a division the amendment was lost by 96 to 28,
After some further discussion on the vote a division was
taken on a motion to report progress, which was rejected by
80 to 25. However, progress was reported and the house
resumed.
The other business was disposed of, and tha house ad-
journed.
