MUTINY BILL.

The house then went into committee on the Mutiny Bill..
Mr. S. HERBERT stated that the alteration in th.o '
bill was respecting militiamen who deserted to join tie
line. It was to the effect that the Secretary for War should
have the power of stoppage at the rate of ld. per day, 'Mil
the'sum reached 18s. 6d. The clause applied to embodied
and disembodied regiments of militia.

Colonel DUISCNE thought the.clause was very objectim
able, as it conferred impunity upon the crime of'deserticti i.
The stoppage of 18s. 6d. proposed was no punishment, an d
the plan offered a premium to perjury. He proposed thi
power should be given to the Secretary at War when tb.e
regiment was abroad.
Colonel GILP IN thought the plan was an encourap..-
ment, and not a punishment for desertion. "
