General PEEL said that the only object of the recruit-
ing regulations in the Guards was to ascertain the charac-
ter of the recruit, and that in enlisting Irishmen there was
great difficulty in getting at that. .
Eventually Mr. HERBERT expressed himself satisfied
with the assurance of the Secretary for War, and withdrew
his motion.
Major JERVIS, having directed attention to the report
of the committee appointed to inquire into the administra-
tion of the transport and supply departments of the army,
elicited from Sir J. Pakington a statement to the effect
that ho had referred the report to the consideration of the
various heads of departments in the War-office, many of
whom were deeply interested in some of its recommenda-
tions. As soon as he had possessed himself of their views,
he should then consider how far he might be able to pre-
pare a plan to be submitted to the house, or whether it
would be desirable to remit the subject to a committee or
a Royal commission. After all that had passed, there
could be no doubt that the organisation of the War Depar-
tment must be fully and fairly considered. In replying to
the Marquis of Hartington the right hon. baronet also ob-
served that he felt himself entirely free to act on the report
in any way he might think expedient.
Subsequently the house went into committee of supply
on the army estimates, and agreed to numerous votes, in-
cluding those for the manufacturing department, military
stores, military education, surveys of the United Kingdom,
miscellaneous services, administration of the army, re-
wards for military services, pay of general officers, out-
pensioners and disembodied militia, yeomanry cavalry, an&
volunteer corps, the discussion of which occupied the
greater part of the remainder of the sitting.
The other orders on the paper were afterwards disposed
of, and the house adjourned at a quarter past two o'clock.
