FRIDAY, MiRCII S.

SUPPLY.-REDUCTION OF EXPENDITURE.

Order for Committee read; Motion made, and Question
proposed," That Mr. Speaker do now leave the Chair :"
Amendment proposed, to leave out from the word " That"
to the end of the Question, in order to add the words " the
net Expenditure of the Government for the year 1835 (Par..
liamentary Paper, No. 26', 1847) amounted to 44,42 ',COOL ;
that the net Expenditure for the year ended the sth day
January, 1850 (Parliamentary Paper, No. 1, 1150), amounted
to 50,853,0001.; the increase of upwards of 6,000,000/.
having been caused principally by successive augmentations
of our warlike establishments, and outlays for defensive
armaments:
" That no foreign danger, or necessary cost of the Civil
Government, or indispensable disbursements for the services
in our Dependencies abroad, warrant the continuance of this
increase of Expenditure:
" That the Taxes required to meet the present Expendi-
ture impede the operations of agriculture and manufactures,
and diminish the funds for the employment of labour in all
branches of productive industry, thereby tending to produce
pauperism and crime, and adding to the local and general
burdens of the people:—
"That, to diminish these evils, it is expedient that this
House take steps to reduce the annual Expenditure, with all
practicable speed, to an amount not exceeding the sum
which, within the last fifteen years, has been proved to be
sufficient for the maintenance of the security, honour, and
dignity of the Nation," instead thereof:—Question put,
" That the words proposed to be left out stand part of the
Question." The House divided:—
