MMITIA PAY.
Mr. IFINDH4,III: moved, that the Mt the'32d,
if the King', Plaeing the Regular Army and the ,
Mi-
litia on.the.same footing as to,pay, should be enter;-
ed as read ; which being done, he-moved for leaVe to
bring in a..8i11.,t0 enable His. IV/ajesty to increase the'
pay of the one independent of the other in certain
cases, It was: iutenCled here that;the increase of
pay should extend only to the Subalterns of .Militia.
Sir IV ELFORD expressed 4i4:•ast:oniShment at .1
the Motion. When notice. was given of the inten-
tion to increase the pay of the,,Arrny . in the
.same
manner as" that. of the Navy, he. had not tord a
word- of excluding any part of, the Militia. -** He_ al-
Ways understood that both, .as. to pay, were to 'stand
on the same f'ooting, and that the same proportions
were to exist between the allowances of the y,ifferent
Officers.. This was the most unfounded Measure
that-lie had.ever heard of. -, The,pripciple on which
it rested was a most strange one. It was, that be-,
cause-Militia Officers above a certain-tank had pri-
vatp fortubes they were not, therefore, to be paid
for their services., How. would this apply to other
cases Those held the:greatOffices of State
might be deprive 4 of their.,fAarles on. the sairie prin.
ciple.' certainly a. lzrge

-private fortune; but was he therefore deprived of his
,salary .'Lord, Lieutenant of Ireland ? Besides,
many of the• Captains in the Militia were men of
very moderate fortunes. .rn his own case hiS,contfi-
lation, to the mess, and the rent ofhis house, swat-
Jowed:up his whole:pay. -- But by his services he,
was disabled from payingithe proper attention to his
private affairs; • and .this was the case -with- many,.
others. Were they to restive no compensation for
all this ? He thought the exclusion most unfounded
and, most unconstitutional. - • •-- -
rcilonel [FOOD observed, that OtTbers above the
rank of SuhaiternT„hacl:property whtch the Officers .
in the Army not have; and.. ,therefore they
certainly had nor the same claim of necel.iiity; there-
fore. the observations now made-were not altogether
in .point.
Mr. I'ERClli.:4Lcould"not agree in the .principle
of as far as it could- be tinderstoocLat pre.%
sent, for it appeared to ..him that it would go tbe
length of 'depTiVing the Militia Officer,i, above the
rank 'of-Subalterns, of their pay altogether. knave -
was then given.
The S4CI,..ETARY at AVA.a. brought up the Rill,
which was read a first time. On the motion for the
seeond.reading, - , • •
Sir NiliTtr.trAt)l EtFono•protes-fed against the.
ciple of the Bill, which would give a death-blow to
the Militia.
The SECRETARY izt WAR said, that the notice
which he had given :was, that an. increase of pay
should be given only•to Officers of a particular rank, -
and in, certain cases, as it was expressed in the Bill:
Tltis,vvas not oxa&ly a-measure for a general increase
of pay, therefore, and the Hon. Baronet mightas
well complaio.that it was not extended to Colonels, ,
Sir WILLIAM IrLFORD explained..
~Mr. PERCIVAL said; .that, from what he now'
understood the Bill to.• he, it gave much greater powers
to Ministers.than, what were necessary for the object
which.they had in iiew. The law at. present was, that
the Militia, as to pay, should be.qtaily on the same -
footing with theln fan try in the Regulars., But now it
appeared,that,incertain cases, an inorease was to be al-
lowed to the oneand notlo the other. Butthepartienlar
objeat was to gi'vse the increase of.pay to the Militia su-
balterns, and to withhold it frotn'the other Officers.
There was. no such particular distincaion however in
the Bill. Besides, the principle would cerainly go •
this length, that no pay should, be allowed to the
superior Militic.o,flicers at he measure could
pot be defended on any. other ground. This might-
be a good principtc., but it. certalnly was one which
deserved some consideration befOre it was established,
'and therefore to propose it at this late period of the .*
Session was not very fitting. •
'Mr. IFINDHAM stated, that Oils would not af-
f,:ot the' Officers now serving in the. Militia, as they
were not pr t on a worse • footing, than' when they
entered, and this went only so far-as to say, that
they had no_elaim to a participation in 'the•proposed
increase. But the Lebrned Gentleman objPCted to.
the prineiple. flut the. principle was .riot.What.he
bad stilted it to be. It was not that the Militia Of-.
licers•ought to hziVe no payatall,..butt,Upon the. plain
and a!, ~i0:u5..01,,C,. that different kinds of serVice
ought to .be .diffre.r.tly w,arded. The pay;•it was

,•,.A certain -proportion 'hadzbeen.: '*
established 'between the pay of 01.3icers'df different •
ranks 3, but that tooltaight,

tarn rank, they must hate privatesfortungs,. an ~I.l4)tAt '
it 4e Contended; that beca'aSe }inn gave an inerease of
pay tb'officerS in the Army, whoseseriices'must be
acknowledged to be ofa superior nature;ne privaie,fottune, and might be obliged' to cie=
.pend. s'ole!y,on their pay for the; establishment

same increase to persons in circurns6tfces ether ,
difierent ? The.thing Was preposterous en 'the, face
of it. -Fre then
badverted- to the • additiOrlil experice
which Jll allowance of additiOal pziY to thesuperior
-Militia Officers would occasion, and contended that
this'ought to be aVoided, since there was. no neees
sity, for it. -
Lord C/ISTLE...q.EAGH said, that a. badge Of in
feriority would thus be fixed. upon the Militia O;Ti'-•,. 1
.cers ITILICII. more hurtful to their feelings tkatt .the
want of the >pay; and they,would consider:this
.es •

had recognized. the principle of. an -equal pay,. ,by
-giving it to the subalterns. -'The Militia Captains •

fling,.. The sum• for the incrctue of" nay to 'the regu-
lar Field Officers was -only i 4-0001. The Militia ' 7
were in ,numbers, about 'one-third-.Of the Regulars,
and the saving; conseqUently, would `be only -one-
'third of tf.3,000L- He called, upon tb&Noble Lord
opposite (Temple) 'to support the cause. of fhe Mili•
tia' on the present occasion, as he' had done at Former
periods.. .
Mr,.IALEXANDER stated the influence which their
'situation gave to Miltlia Colonels, "who possessed. a 4.
vantages which could not be possessed by the Rego-.
Colends— ' -• • • "-

Lord' CitSTLEREAG.II observed, .that if the
Hon. Gentleman bad /looked at the Estimate, •he
would have found that the additional pay did not e3E.
tend to:the ColonelS in either case..

. Lord TEMPLE expressed-his vy7t4 that his Rt.
Hon. Friend would re %eoUsidethis measure. Upon
the principle which he had stated, clitlerent parts of
-the Autry itself Might hare diTerent-claiins. -As to
theiColeriels of-Militia, they bad no claim hatever:
Tht Field'. Officer; had not -much ; but as to .t!le

been tiivert to accept, Of, &ra e Avithout,

Mr. WINDAIAm explained.

•_ Lord DE PLAQe JERE. hoped' ,that there could
be no difference of opinion as to the necessity of
extending the-additional allowance to' the Captains
of the Militia. 'Au' he thOtight the distinaiortex,

He was surprised:sthat this period of the Ses-
sion should be chosen for the introduetion of such a

cep s.

CeI.ORAUFURb could not see why the measure
.should be objected to, except it was with a view to
Tender his Right Hon. Friend unpopular with • the
..Militia and Volunteers;' a purpose, for which' the
Gentltnen, on the other' side had. laboured
with great perseveranFe, but he believed with little
s:Tces. The- Cavalry _were. excluded from this in-
crease of pay, and-.sb were the Guards, upon the
• pir:cipie that' they could go on very well without
any addition, while, in the.cas:..s.where it was al-
.lo'.ved; there Mr.ilS a necessity 'for it. It was. to pre-
vent meritorious Officers from being put in prison,
or being forced to quit the service from the absolute
inability of existiug upon their pay. ,If there was
po complaint on account of • the Cavalry and the
Guard,-where was the ground for complaintin the
case of the Militia?'

General 'J'IItLETON knew, ,from.his own ob-
servation, the Militia were brought to a very high'
6tate'Of discipline, and this was owing-to the Offi-
cers. They were fit ,to combat with any regular
troops against any enemy whatever ; and when there
was so much merit on the part of the Officers, it was
bard to make this invidious distinetion.
After a few observation's from Cal. Woon the Bill
Was ordered to be read a second time to-morrow.

~Sir C. POLE, pursuant to-notice, moved for.leave
• to bring in- a Bill to extend the. advantages of the
•35 t h of the King. to. the Petty Officers, Seamen and
..:%farines.in the Navy, by enabling them to allot part
(?}- wages to the support of.thei,r wives and-farpi-
giVen.--The Bill' was then breaght up,

mori•ow.
The Nabob of ArcoCs Debts Bill was reported,
and ordered to be read a third time to-morrow.
VOLUNTEER (iFFIt:ERS' RANK BILL.
On the Motion of Mr. Secretary WINDHAM, the
. House went into a Committee on the Bill for -Regu-,
la:ing the Rank of 'Yeozn'anry and Volunteer Offi-
cers, Mr..liAwaspoaNn the'Cbair.
, • Mr.. Ahlertnan ChmatempVed, as an amendment
to , the enading. Clause, that the "words have
been" be left out, and the words e‘ shall hereafter
lie,' inserted in their stead, with a view to confine
.. the operation. of the pleasure'. to such Volunteer Of-
ficers whose Serviees Shall,here,after be accepted.
.31r. EILk Y ADDING7'O.W i'as hirnself a Field
Oencer.of: Volunteers; and' felt no objection; to the
measure of.' his Right Hon. Friend.. ,He knew no
Oilicer•of- Volunteers-who had ally 'to it,
and ,for him elf, be was glad to have responsi,
bility taken off him. • ,
, • • Mr. STITRGES BOURNE agreed- with -theslia:-
'nfiurahle Alderman,- that. it was not right to take
away the rank from Volunteer Officers which they
at present enjoyed. It was. quite a different thing',
not to give-the rank in the first instance, and to take
itaway after it had been given. The rank of Vo-
initteer Otlicerslad been carried much farther last
war, when many full Colonels Were appointed..
'?'bough Volunteer Colonels may not have seen ser-
vice in the Army, their Majors bad,.and the conse-
quence of this measure would be, thatthese Colonels
would be, commanded by their" Majors "when they
came to a6tual service.
Lord TEMPLE observed, that the Brevet rank in
the army was an analogous case.
,Mr. PERCBOIL contended, that the Bill, if the
-breviat corre&ly stated the matter of, it, would give
far larger powers than the Right Hon. Gentleman
professed to call 'for. 'lt 'would completely do away
all the provisions which placed the Militia Officers
and Men on the same footing as the Regular Ariny..
general 7'ARLETO.N was of opinion
.thdt the
Volunteer Officers may hold their rank-i,vithOut.any
mischief arising from it. An intelligent General
-" would command a mixed force Of ]Regulars,
..and Volunteers, without any confusion.. If the ,Vo-,
louteers had been out on permanent duty this spring
• and summer, they would now be aneffe6live force,
that would Fender the Country secure from any at •
tack. .They contained the real physiCal forge of the
nation, of strong'constitutions, soUnd frames; full,of
spirit, and .of the true Military age ; they wanted'
only alittle experience, which they might have had
by .the permanent duty. He should have. nq hesi-
tation to face
_any Enemy with a• force equally corn-•
posed of Regulars, Militia, and Volunteers, and he
should not be apprehensive of any confusion or
-weakness of-the line in consequence of the Volun-
teers. The only thing he would fear was their im-
‘ patience .to meet the Enemy. Haw' was that to be
correeled ? By discipline. How was discipline to be
gained ? By permanent dilty.: If justice had been
done to the Volunteers, they would be fully compe- •
zeLit to a6t on any service with the Regulars.
Sir CHARLES PRICE obje&ed to the measure
. -
'as iniurions to the Volunteers, and, cOincided, with
the sentiments of his Hen,Colleague (Alderman
' Combe).. He had felt very acutely in the'different
instances, during the present Session, when the Vo-
lipateers had been treated lightry. The., last insult
that. had, been given to them was in the assertion,
that they Were a refuge for the rich. He had hoped
when he heard of this measure, that some complies
, I-pent:was intended it length to be paid to the Vo-
lunte'ers. He , could not consent to a measure that
went to deprive them of that rank which they pos-
sessed: oft . the faith
.of farlianient, and of their

L? ) DE BLAQ MERE was of opinion, that
i'y'giedt mischief would result in case the Volun-
;e(.l-s and l,kgulats,-should be called out tngkher, on
al`tual 3etvice, tailless the princi; le of thc Right Ron.
SeciTtay's measure should be adopted.. No success

111 r. Str,retary 1J .1117 D iiil,l/ was surprised to •ticar
of this new insult given by himito the V,oltuitetrq
but it was as unfounded as any of those beforp errz

Hon.; rriid, xt=ho`,lLl.4 r;roposeeltlitt-Atnendment, al-
lowed the rank oughtnot to have atfiragiven
to the Volunteer, Officers. Jt was obvious, that what
vas not right to be given in the first instance ought
not. to be continued. He admitted .that the Volian-:
teen Coloneh were excelleht Madistrates, intelligent
Jnen, and, animated with zeal and patriotism; but-
they were not,miiitary. Ws it then aninsult
to say to them, ,that they- were not as :fit to com-
mand 'as men'who had devotedtheir lives, in eyery.
sense • of the word, particularly 'to the Army as a'
profession .? What degradation was to . arise from
this?' A mail •who Was not thoroughly acquainted`
with the sea would not be offended at being told .that
he' was hot a:good seaman. The Hon. Mover of. the
Amendment then .brought the' question fairly to is,
sue. But it Was admitted on all hands, that Volun-
teer Officers ought not to haVe this rank, and this
Bill was -only to remedy the evil. He should nosy
notice what oh a former occasion he had not thought
worth attention, the mirth that had been excited by
an assertion of- fhe Learned "Gentleman (Mr. Perci.,-
val) respe'c'ting the rank he (Mr. yVinclhatn) held as
a-Volunteer Officer. That assertion was founded on
a mis-statement. , He was a full Colonel nol.-as com-
manding his corps, but as commanding four .or five
Corps. Where the humour was in the assertion he,
could.notdiseover, it seemed ,to him 'of that vacant
kind that excites the mirth of a set of barrel} audi-
tors.

Mr. PEl?tl'P_4.L, if. he' had made a miS-state-
ment, bad taken,his information from "the Paper 4 on
the table. The. Right Hon. Gentleman had there-
fore to blame one of hiss-colleagues for laying sueli
statement before the' House. By the' Papers to which
he alluded there appeared no Officer attached to 'his.
Carps but the Colonel him:elf—no' —not even a con
stable. The Right. Hon. Gentleman 'had afforded
some.moye room 'for mirth in the present, than tke
state ofhis Corps :had in the former instance.; for
it appeared now that he knew so little of his Corps
then, that he could not put down the mirth by giv.-
ng-the explanation now given. On principle the Right
Eon. Gentleman ought to extend his measure,-to
'the Militia as well,as. the Voltinteers:, If he did not
intend that, he had taken the wrong cause. The
..proper and direct mode of attaining his obje& would
,be to bring in a short A& to take the Commissions
from. the 'Volunteer Colonels, and. leave 'none of a
.rank higher than, a CaPtain.. .The present measure
would really 'make'the Volunteer Officers resemble

to cause the Volunteer System to moulder

Colonel Herries, of the City Light kior.,e,, was desir-
ous.of being coMmanded by regular, Officers. it
