THE SUN,

On elan-.e 15 h. lit z propis-d, which provides, that
any eorporwe town, not within 10 1.13i1p-s of the merropo•
lis, might obtain the interviiniinn if the Bill tf the re-
quest was sup, orted by the signature of 300 inhabitants,
some diacussion ensued.

Mr. DUNCOMBE contended that populous districts,
like Islingrim and Kensington, which had no public
lamps, would be altogether exempt from the Bill if the
obtuse stood in its present form.
Mr. NEWDEGATE then moved as an amendment—
That a majority of the inhabitants should be required,
instead or 300.

The galleries were cleared for a division, but none
rook place, the amendmeat having been withdrawn.
The clause was then agreed to.

Clause 16 was also agreed to.
On clause 17, which relates to the payment of the
travelling expenses of the commissioners,
Colonel SIBTHORP said that they had sat nearly
since twelve o'clock. It was now midnight ; and as he
intended to move the omission of the clause, and as no
doubt considerable discussion would arise upon it, he
should move that the chairman report progress, and ob-
tain leave to sit again.
Lord MORPE al said he did not intend to proceed
with any clauses beyond the one before the House that
night; he trusted the House would allow the clause to
be disposed of before the chairman was desired to report
progress.
Mr. HENLEY and Colonel SII3THORP declared that
the discussion of the clause would occupy more than au
hour, and urged the Noble Lord to suspend any further
proceedings to-night.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL had no objection to accede
to the suggestion of the Hon. and Gallant Member,
provided the House met at twelve o'clock on Monday,
for the purpose of proceeding with the Bill.

The Motion was then withdrawn.
The House resumed.

The CHAIRMAN reported progress, and obtained leave
to sit again at twelve o'clock on Monday, which was
agreed to.

THE L)4 DIAN ARMY.

- - - -
The discussieus widget' have of late occurred en the
merits of a p -ace or war policy for India hare caused
more than ordinary attention to be bestowed on the state
or the armies of India, as tee their strength, efficiency.
and expense, comparei to that in which they fornery
existed, and to the condition of the Exchequer. From
these it appears that within the last 10 years we have
added about 20,000,0001., or abut one-fouttb, to our
debt, and been living regularly at the rate of 750,000/.
to 2,000,000/. sterling above our income,—no year
exhibiting a balance less unfavourable than the smaller
of 'hose just named. Our gross annual income
is believed at present to be about 25,000,000/
The total amount of our mi.itary charges exceeds
14,000,0001. a year. The armies of India, exclusive of
Queen's troops, mustered 168,477 just betore the Atfghan
war began: they went on incr, aeing at the rate of about
10,000 a year, till in 1844 they mustered 250,030 men,-
81,553 men, and nearly 700 European officers, being added
to its strength. From this date to the time when the
recent reductions began, 25,000 more had been added to
their ranks—making a total addition of about 110,000
men, or something above the entire army of Eng-
land. Including Queen's troops we had on our muster roll,
on the Ist of January, 1847, considerably above 300,000
men. The Bombay army alone has betwixt the dates we
mention been augmented by above 40,000 men. Of the
total augmentation, 24,000, maintained at the cost of
above 1,000,0000/. sterling annually, have been specially
raised for service in Sinde-18,000 continue up to the
present moment to be quartered in that country-
-24,000 were required for it nearly the whole of
the present year. The total reduction at present
proposed to be effected falls; somewhat under 40,000
of all arms, leaving on the muster roll above 70,000
men, in the highest state of efficiency, more than
we could boast of from 1831 to 1838, when we
had the vast armies of Sinde, Gwalior, and the Pun-
iaub—all since extinguished—to watch. So utterly
a nseless is the clamour at home in reference to the un-
wise diminution of our defence, that at no time en our
history was our army ever so strong, or so little likely
t be called en n) take the field, as in the beginning of
1847 The want of European officers is being remedied
en the only way within the power of the Company,
now so greatly in debt. The native regiments have
been reduced in Sepoys by a titth, end have, of
in proportion to the number of native soldiers on
the muster roll, be come by this touch stronger ue
European officers, an extra captain having been latele
added, and, as already sated some seven hundred
officers in ail since 1837. The reasonable part o•
it is. the vast majority of the army is well satisfiee
with It Ibis; did they entertain the views avcribed to
the•rn by the.r professed advocates and admirers, they

THE ROMANCE OF WAR, VOLUME IV.; OR, TUE
HIGHLANDERS IN FRANCE AND BELGIUM. A sequel
to " The Highlanders ine'Spain."—This volume completes
this spirited and exciting work. The adventures of the
Highlander; during the late war are detailed with great
brilliancy, and the hero of the story has his full share of
fi,2.hting, glory, and love. By telling the tale of 11 single
brigade, instead of trying to imagine the history of a
whole army in action, a continuous interest is preserved,
and a vitality imparted which none but a Welter Scott
can give to the enormous masses with which the historian
(if avar has to deal. The present volume contains a Ca-
ritally written description of the Waterloo day of 1815.
Besides the leading commanders—the Dukes of Welling
t,‘n and Brunswick, and Prince Blucher—the following
officers figure gloriously in its pages :—Sir Dennis Pack,
Sir W. Ponsonby, Sir Henry Torrens, Colonel Cameron,
end Captv:ns Little, Grant, and Chisholme.—court

(AYLESBURY, JULY I.—The Midsummer sessions
commenced on Tuesday last for this county before Sir
Thomas Aubrey, Bart., and a full bench of magistrates.
The calendar contained the names of 60 prisoners, but
the offences were most of them of a trivial nature. Dr.
Lee brought forward his motion, that a petition should
be presented to the House of Commons for the total

abolition or ameliorrAtion of the game-laws. The Learned
Doctor's motion was negatived by a large majority. Mr.
It. Barker moved, ..hat the New Prison being now com-
Eletepleted

Weh?cnilly held at Aylesbury. After a long discussion, in
