A conversation of some length ensued between

WILBLEROOkCE ,said, as there were
portant, subjects which stood 'for consideration

Sir Roaggr BUXTON, observed, that the Landed

CiIANtELLOR of the EXCIIEQUER
itwas hisintention so move to consolidate the:
Landed and the Personal Property Bill he hoped

,would permit them to go into a Coot.
Mittee fro firma on Friday,-'for the purpose of

The third reading of the Woollen Bill was then
deferred till Friday.. . •
The Order of the Day for the further ccnsidera.
tion. of the Report of the Army of Reserve Bill
was then read.
The SECRETARY at WAR'said, he bath some
verbal alterations to make in the Bill, which could
be more convenieorly done in a Committee .; he
should rherefore..nme that the Bashoull be re..
: he should, after the. Bill had gone

shier tcw workla from Colonel Ckistrsioitp and
Galeral GAscoy.Lie,. it appeared to be undergtood
tr,at' the discussion on the principle of the Bill was
to take el ice no the third wading to.morrow.
The ;louse having resolved itself into a COM.

SECRET 1219 /1 dr at WeR then proceeded, to
pr,Tase his Am,...ndm,:nr,,, many or which, were
met. :y verbal. in the Clause which empowered
eat Deputy Lleuteilant to regulate the number of
men to be raised by the Hundred, he proposed •In
Aannitnent, the purport of which was, that in
rhalting these Regulations, due regard should be had
to the number of Volunteers raised by the Hundred,
which was adopted. He also proposed, among the
exemptions granted to Volunteer Corps, to insert
the Honourable the Artillery Company of London,
which was ogre, d
Mr. o'. WYNNR observed, that he thought
there was something unfair in the plan adopted re-
t; cling the accepting of the services of Volunteer
Corps. Some tine agcy GOVerfiniera intimated' their
Intention of accepting offers of serYiee from Volun.
tear Corps. In consequence of that intimation, se.
'mat offers of service had been made, *woe of which
bad been accepted, and to others no answer had yet
been given. He thought that all those Corps that
offered their cervices tTon the invitation of Go.
vernment, and upon the terms that they should be
exempt from ballots, were now entitled to those ex.
:mprions, provided their offer of service was pre.
%iota to the aid of June, and he accordingly pro
posed an Amendment to that Oita.
The CIIii4YOULOR of the EXCHEQUELt
ciid, it was unnecessary to repeat the arguments
svh 1,1 had been urged to hew the impropriety of
extending the exemptions beyond those who 1)
iOtually, be eenrolled bairn., the zzd of June. In
Voint of fad, the oilers of service were so nurse.
roue, that if they hail alt been accepted, the number
of ex,mptions would have been enormous, and
would have consNuently thrown a great additional
burthen upon other persons. It was to avoid
threr.vi g this additional hurthen upon the people,
m any of those offers were not accepted, till
pleisure of Parliament was known upon the
)9jtct. He therefge hoped that the Cnii-atittee
Quid adheic to its former Resolutions on this
~cl.)je4.

Dr. LAWRENCE supported the Amendment
which had been propsed, and'. said it would be
hard if those Corps who had; upon the invitation
of Government, made offers of service upon the
terms held out by Government, should now have
their services accepted upon very different and less
advantageous terms.
The C triNCELLOR of the, -EXCHEQUER
denied that any offer of exemption from the present
Levy was held out when the offer was made a)
accept the services of Volunteer Corps, because, in
point of Tad; this measure was' not then altogether
in contemplation. s.
General GASCOY NE disapproved of the Amend.
tbent, and said, that instead of extending tlte ex.
emPtions; he should wish to see them 'narrowed.

Sir 1L':11. GE dRY stated the case of some per-
sons belonging to a Corps under his command who
had offered their services before the time limited
by this Bill, though in fad' they had not been regu.
lady enrolled.

Mr. P said; that in his opinion, jsettions
whose services had been accepted since this mea-
sure had been announced, were not entitled 'to
exemption, more especially as the limitation. had
been extended to the 22d of June, instead of the
16th, which was,originally proposed. Ile did not
set, threfore any ground that could he urged
for the exemption of those
-who had not :been en.
rolled previous to the 2zd of June. The, zeal of
the Hon. Baronet for the Corps order his command,
did him great honour, bUt he was sure he would
111 V wish to extend exemptions in a way that would
be produaive of great iticonveoience. He could
not believe that any persons entered into Valunteer
Corps. to save tbehiselVes lion 'The effect of this
ballot, on the contrary, lie was sure that the same
spirit which lesi them to make an offer of their per.
aonal service, would induce them ao contribute in
every other way to the raising of a Force necessary
for the Security of the Kingdom. If the Muse .
were to go on and give way to all the applications
which might be made, and to keep adding, one by
one, to the Catalogue of Exemptions, they would
narrow the means of obtaining a large regular and
trained Forces He did not mean that the establish-
ment of such a force would render the Volunteers
unnecessary, but they would be necessary to form
a point round which the others' might rally. lie
hoped that offers of Volunteer Service would come,.
in to a very great extent. He hoped they would
now be invited to offer their services. and in obey.
ins that call, he was sure they would be 'aduated
by that. feeling Which Must govern-the .breast of
every Englishman,
,and not, by any view to ex-
'emotion. There was no man in the -kingdom less
inclined to undervalue the Services of the Volunteers
than he was ; they were, under Providence, some
time ago the great instrument of the salvation of
this Country. Alarge proportion of Volunteers,'
with less of Regular Military force, , would 'be suf.
fieient to 'guard against internal- danger, but to
meet a foreign enemys they must necessarily aa
With a large trained Army. He Was, inclined 'to
hope that if any exemptions were -to be- given in
fume, it would not be- till after the general ballot
Was over. It might then be ,advisable to exempt
them from the ballots upon a smaller scale, which
would be necessary to, fall up deficiencies ; and even
that exemption lie hoped would not be given with,
out, an engagement more stria than those which
were now entered into, and that the petin3.4tlest •
service should be defined; not that he 'worm:led ac;,
man would withdraw himself from . the. ,Voluntet
while his services were necessary, but he thought it
would be proper to provide that persons who had
offered their, services should not be allowed to with.
draw them, except upon change of residence, sick-
ness, or some other good eause. It was upon these
grounds, and seeing that exemptions were spreading,
that he thought it necessary to make these observa-
tions. With regard to the case sated by his Hon.
!relation (Mh,. e) he thought • those Corps to
whose,olfers of serVice,no answer had been returned,
should not nosv be held to Those offers, hut that
they shohk; he at linerty to make their Offer 'rgain.
• The CI st.liCk.'44,o/Z :of the EXCHEQUeI:
said, he perfectly concurred in the prOpriety
,6r
what had talleo from his Right lion. Friend. He
was of opinion that those Corps alhided to should
not be held to their former offers of services that'.
an opportunity should be given , to them to renew
those offers 'if they thought proper, but without
the smallest imputation upon them if they should
nut think it right to renew their therm,

sli rt conversation then took place respeaing
the exaa terms upon which exemption was tratited
to Volunteer Corps.
The SE4RET4RY at said, 'lle exemp.
lions wete elk follows..—First, with regard to the
Corps; that they extended to those Corps whose set'.
vices had been regulatly accepted by His Majesty
before the 3;d of June ; with regard to individuals,
he proposed that they should extend to those who had
offered their services, and had been accepted and
eitoally enrolled before the It.o of June ; which was
agreed to.
The Secairaoty at Witt took an opportunity
of giving notice, that he should very soon move
for leave to bring in- a Bill to make some regula,
tions respecting Volunteer and Yeomanry Corps,
and for the purpose of billetting them, &r.
Mr. STURGES said, he did not think that
those who offered their services in case of invasion-
were entitled to exemption, because in case of in..
vasion the King .could by law command the ser.
vices of every man.
The SECRETARY at WAR proposed to insert
the words, ' Invasion, or appearance of Invasion.'
lie also observed, that although he was 6urc in case
of Invasion, the Volunteers would be anxious to be
led forward to meet ,the Eneray, yet it vyoul,l be
selTicient if those, particularly in large Towns, would'
form the garrisons of those towns, becalese if the
Volunteers were marched our, k would be necessary
to rep Lice them with other Troops.
amend TARLETON said, the Volunteers would
be of the most essential service in the way alluded'
to by the SecrAary at War, becausesit would enable
Majesty to employ the •whole of the 'Regular
and Militia force against the Enemy.
:14e SEC R ET/1/(Y at WAR observed, that it
was necessary to mark distinctly that the men raised
by virtue of this Aft, and drafted into any of the
old Ile r,menu should not be sent out of the limits
4

ofltre service prescribed by the Aa, unicss they
chose to volunteer.' }lt therefore proposed an
Amendment, to the circa that His Mojesty should
be empowered to draft -Clem into any existing Re.
giments appointed to serve within the prescribed
limits,

Col. Canwroan urged the necessity of filling
up the Regimenrs- of the Line.
The SECRETARY at WAR observed, that these
.men could only be placed 41 Regiments whose ser-
vices were limited Gieat Britain and Ireland,
Guernsey and jersey.
'Mr. SH ERMAN objened to any question.being
put tO men thus disposed of, as to whether they
were willing to volunteer for general service.
Mr. PITT said, it was, necessary that it should
be distinftly understood- that whilst any Regiments
remained, of which any of the persons enrolled
der this Aft for limited service formed a part, those,
Regiments could not be sent upon general service.
wished, however, that in case His Majesty
wantel any of those Regiments for general service,
that His Majesty might have the option of either
taking out from such Regiments the regular Soldiers,
and placing them in another, or taking out the new
levies. Perhaps it was better to complete our home
defence, in preference to having any foreign force,
anti if so it would be perhaps better to till up all
the. Regiments of the Line, even at the • risk of
ehaining•thein down to limited service for a certain
time. fit was justified in supposing that rileliSUreS
Wotliti shortly be brought forward for the better
Recruiting of the Regular.Ser vice. Recruiting was
not neeessarily impeded by the continuance of a
bailor, as experience had shewn, and particularly
with respert to the Guards and 'the Cavalry, the
latter of which he did not think was at the present
moment proportionably adequate to the number of
our Infantry. He had the most sanguine hopes
that by thus augmenting our force, the foundation
wield be laid for the most vigorous efforts abroad,
by which be hoped, after repelling the immediate
attempts of the, Enemy, that we should make that
return which the presumption of that Enemy de-
served. In reference to what he had at first men-
tioned, he wished an Amendment to be made to
enable His Majesty to remove the men raised under
this.ACt from one Regiment or Battalion to another.

The CHANCELLOR I:1 the EXCHEQUER
stated, that,measures
.had been taken within the
last twenry.four hours, for the more effectually re.
Cruiting the two Branches of the Army alluded to
by his Right Hun. Friend, namely the Guards and
the Cavalry, and that the Recruiting for general
service. was now gpin on with more success than
for many months pat.
• After some observations from Col. CttAwroeD,
Mr. YitAttltt.Al4o, General TAitt.STot4, Dr. LAW.
RUM: a. and General GMCOVNE,
MrAIIeRIDAN 'repeated his objeflion to any
quebtinnteing put to persons enrolled under this
Ad; as to whether they were willing to enlist for
general service.
Mr. Pt*, on the contrary, thonght it would
be the best way to have fixed days of • muster, on
which the Comtionding Officer should propose, at
the head of the Regiment, that those who were
willing to volunteer forgeneral service should" dome
forward.

The Amendment proposed by the SVC& ITA/tY at
Wmt, as well as an Amendment to the tett pro.
pi:sed-hy Mr. PITT, were theta agreed to.
On the subjtet of enabling the men to be raised,
under this PAH- to enlist into the line, a long con.
versation tank place, which was supported by Mr.,
PITT, Mr. SIIIMIDAV, Mr. STuacttr, General
GA4COI/14K, ME. BILAGGIi, the SECIIIITARY at WAR,
and many 'other MemSers.—Colonel WELLESIAY
:wished the Clause to express the Royal Regiosent of
Artillery, whi.x. produced a very long conversation
between the *drive Kin. Gentlemen and many
others, which, terminated on thc CHANCtLI.OIt
the EXCiI FQ,VER intimating a wish that His Ma.
jecty', Power to accept of the voluntary services of
thesewen might remAin unfeiterzil by any specific
ivords, that the liberty of enli,ting into his Ma.
j,,ty's service in the line should be general, and
that there should be a perfect understanding, that
the leave of enlisting under the Bill, should extend
to.that of going into the 'Royal Regiment of Ar.
cillery.
The Hon. Captain Cocoa ANN advised the House
to be very caretul not to overtook the Marines, a
body of men without whose aid it was impossible
tor this Country to exist in securitY, and he wished
the number of men constituting that part of our force,
to be much increased.

Several Clauses were brought up by the SECRVI.
TARY at WAR, providing for the mode c 4 raising
men in the Cinque Ports, and the Tower Hamlets,
and for various other 'purposes, which were all,
agreed to; after which the Committee Went through
the Bill.—The Report was received immediately.
The SECA START at WAR ohseried, that after
the long and minute consideration this Bill had re-
ceived, and after thevonvietion of, the House had.
been expressed, as indeed the Country felt, that
dispatch was an essential part of this plan, the House
would, he hoped, think it proper to agree at once
to all the Amendment, made to the Bill in the COM.
mit tee, and (mkt that the Bill be engrossed.
The amendMents were agreed to, and it was
ordered that the Bill be read a third time to.
morrow, it, then engrossed.
The farther consitieration of the Scots additional
Army Bill,was deferred till to.morroW," on the mo.
tion of the SCRItTARY at WAR.
Mr. N. BROWNE moved the Order of the Day
for the House to resolve itself into a Committee of
the whole House, to consider further of a Supply to
be granted to His Majesty; mitich being read, he
moved, that the third report of the Committee on the
Survey of the Highlands of Scot LA. bereferred to
a Committee of the whOle House. Ordered.

The. HOObe having resolved itself into the said
nminittee,`

Mr. 1!. BROWNE said, that after the very
long, •arduous, arid 'important discussion which
hdd already occupied the attention of the House,
he should not trespass tediously or unnecessarily
upon their patience, hut should as shortly as
possible call their attention to the objets of
the Motion he intended to have the honour of

and which was nut only of the utmost importance 10
that part of Great Britain, but to the conunerce Di

as this Island. From the-Third Report of that
Committee upon the- Highland Survey, of which
he had the honour to be Chairman, and which Ite•
port was now upon the Table, the Committee Was
already apprised that the project to which he Allud•

Highlands of Scotland, from the Eastern to the
Western Sea. The r rojed at first might appear twit
