Landed Property belonging to one of the Prebends
in the Diocese of Lincoln, in perpetuity to-the Les-
see, on condition of receiving an, annual corn-yent.
The- Bill was opposed by the Duke of NORFOLK,
Lord ELDON, Lord ELLE:,.TBOROUGIT, apd the LORD
CHANCELLOR, 011 the uround of-the dangerous pre-
cedent which it tended •, to establiSh,- and which
might be afterwards used to sanCtion - the' conver-
sion of any portion of Church Property; however
large, into a certain annual rent. The Bishop of ST.
ASAPH, the Bishop of LINCOLN, 'Lord HOLLAND,
and Earl SrEN CR 11, supported the-Bill,on the „around
of convenience to t'be parties interested, whilst,; at

INUSTMENT FOR TERM OF YEARS.

Mr:YORKE, with a view to obtain a just esti-
mate of the probable,effea of recruiting for a term
of years, wished the House to be in possession of the
total amount of the Army in the American War, for
the purpose of shewing what proportion the' men
raised for limited service bore to the general amount.
He therefore' moved, that there be laid before the
House an Account of the Effe&ive Force of the Re-
gular Army on the British Establishment, rank and
file, distinguishing those for limited and unlimited
service,. and distinguishing Cavalry from Infantry, for
,each year, from 21st December, 1774, to 2.1 .st De-
cember, 1784, distinguishing each year.
The SECRETARY at !VAR had no objeaion to
the production of .these A.ccotints, 'Which, instead
of a diminution, would shew a great increase, by the
inlistment for term of years.
Lord CASTLEREAGII conceived,. that if the
average of the,years included in the Motion.-were
taken, the numbers Obtained then for .term of years
would not he found greater in' proportion than
the numbers. obtained for serving - unlimited in
time or place in a late instance:- The great effort
for recruiting the Army by men raised fbr limited
service, was after tlit; surrender of the British Force
at Anatolia. The number that entered last year for"
unlimited service were greater in proportion.
The LORD ADVOCATE of SCOTLAND gave notice,
that he would to-morrow move for leave to bring
in a Bill to Increase the Salary of the .ludge of the
Admiralty for Scotland, and for allowing a Compen-
sation to the Judges .of the Commissariat itrLdin-
burgh.
