Under the latter item, the right hon. baronet stated that
since the Bth of March no less than 25.000 men and 2,500
horses had been despatched to- the East, while arrange-
ments had been made for conveying double that number
of horses, including the Himalaya, which was being fitted
.up for carrying out an entire cavalry regiment, and 75
sailing vessels. Each artillery transport carried out two
officers, 45 men, 52 horses, and four guns. The total num-
ber of steain-vessels taken up was 18, and of sailing vessels
86,. all of which had been engaged for the entire year,
while 14 steam vessels had been taken off the packet service
to perform single journey trips from England to Malta. These
*ere the principal items of the supplementary estimate,
which had been framed upon a liberal scale, and knowing
the feeling of the house to be unanimous in promoting this
war with determination and vigour, it was not nelessary
for him to make any earnest appeal to the house to vote
the supplies, and he would conclude by simply stating that
if his explanation was not satisfactory he should be ready
to go into further details as each vote was proposed.
