The Meffage having buil read, he moved that it
fkould be referred to the Committee. The Speaker
having left the Chair, and the Houle having resolved
itfelf into a Committee,
Lord HOWICK (later!, that the objen of the mo-
tion which he fhould have the honour of fubmitting
to the Houfe, was to make a provifloo for a deferip-
tios of men who were particularly entitled to the care
and gratitude of their country : he meant wounded,
lafirm, and difabled (came.. A variety of papers
bad been laid on the table, tending to explain the
nature of the ellablifliments at Greenwich Hefpital,
and of the Chen it Greenwich, formerly generally
known by the name cud,* Chen of Chatham. The
Aril of tilde eftabldbetutots was applied to the fupport
of wounded and cfifabledfeamen, the latter was applied
to the grants of certain penfions to thofe difabled or
invalided in the fervice. It would be the objelt of
his motion, founded upon Ms Majefty's Melfsge, to
increafe both thefe enablifhments. The penfions
granted upon the cheft were originally fettled at 71.
beyond which fun they had never inereated, fince
the ettablifitment was IA founded, in t 663. The
revenues of the trajiitin at 'pilau amounted to

leadrg a furplus of 1,a671. The Mires& in the
bofmtal eflablifhtnent,le calculated, would amount
ep about t 7,0001. leaving, of courfe. a deficiency of
abont.soool. a year to be provided for. This be
would cover by a certain portion of * dedtuSion of s
per cent. which it was intended to make from all
dem nn es. The annual amount of prizes now con.
mned ia our Coins amoonted to about ziaso,oool.
lie would, however, take it at no mote than one

fight..or Ids of limbs. Tbefe penfions, in thefe er-
emite cafes. he would propofe to increafe from Isl. to
col, and fo in other proportions. The additional
'l7:ne of the increafe was computed at 17,0001.
ecapenditure of the Chen was aftually 484681. a
year ; the receipt,. according to the lalt annual
augment, amounted to 63,2821. He would, how-
ever, take h at no Mote than 5'5,000i producing a

to be provided for would amount to fomething about

The furplus, of courfe, would be very coofiderable ;

abroad, that it was not 'he intlnticn of Government
to pet it in force, and that it 11 as only meant by way
of toofolidating the different Afts upon the fame

Mr. WINDHAM anfwered, that it was the 6rll
time he had ever heard of Inch an idea.
Mr. WINDHAM.next moved, that the Bill be re.
committed, and that the Haute thou:A now resolve
itfelf into loch Committee.
Colonel BAGWELL rote for the porno& of op-
pofing the Bill. Hs was wiUing to do plaice to the
purity of the intentions of the Right-Hon. Gentle.
man ; but he would contend, that he had been molt
unfortunate in the applic.c ion of the means which the
country had placed in his hands and Mort of his c•'
leagues. Every meafure he had propofed, fo tar
from inereafing our force, bad an opposite tendency.
One of the firft of his meafures was to get rid of an
Aft which produced annually rB,OOO men in the
army—nnd rot -what ? for an experiment. The plan
introduced appeared to him to be principally for the
impure of counteratfting the excellent (yam laid
down by the former Government, micro manifell
his adherence to cpinions expreffeJ, lie would not fay
in a moment of lei:flour, but certainly of painted
oppofition. With refpe& to the conftitutionality of
the meafure, he did not think that the ingenuity of the
Honourable Propofer, great as it was k town to be,
would be able to etiablifh that. But he would be
Iliad to learn how the principles of the Conititu.
non could be (aid to be preferved, if In large a
porportion of the population were to be fubjefted to
the operation of the Mutiny Bill $ to be marched
from one end of the kingdom to the other, and tub.
jetted wall the privations, reflrittions, and col:int-di-
nation that men who had made a military life their
choice, were generally liable to. The Bill appearedto
him to be one of the groitell infringements upon the
liberties of Engliflamen that had ever been attempted.
Sir J. M. PULI'ENEY (fated, that he had the
greatelt confidence in the fupetiority of a regular
army, but it was impoffible this country could be cle-
f:tided without having recourfe to lonic other fpecies
of force. Our population was not Co extentive, or
OUT people fa unemployed, as to allow us to Toile a
large army upon the fpur of the occafion. Periods
might attire, when it was neceffary a very large pro.
portion of the people thauld be ready trained and
armed ; at the beginning:of a war, fur inftance, when
the ftrength of the enemy's navy might be greater
than it was in time of peace, and when the amount of
cur regular army might be lets than it c. AS in time of
war. The march of the French army, after the mif-
fortune of General Mack, would never have reached
Vienna, if there had been an armed population to ob.
(true their pottage. It was afked, why have recottrfe
to this meafure of a general training, when you have
a volunteer force ready drifted to your hand:? The
Volunteers, he would admit, were entitled to great
praife. He admired their zeal, and in malty in.
ilances he approved of their difcipline ; but he
would no more troll to voluntary Cervices for the
defence of a nation, than be would to voluotary
contributions for the (import of its finances. He
would not enter mock into the Bill $ the execution
of it might be attended with difficulties. but he
was fo attached to the principle. that he would give
it a fair trial. There, were, however. twoor three
points to which he wised to fay a few words ; and,
firft, as to the uticoattitutionality of the neeafure. He
could perceive nothing uncontlitutional ins, that ex-
ercife of the prerogative yard in his Majefty. or in
fubjefting a part of the population to rentinnory
conveniencies, to avoid greater calamities. The
amount of the number of perfona to be trained. was,
he nnderhood, to be 400,000 men a a force certainly
tonal to encounter any danger by which thin Isiugdont
twoald era be Menaced. It was in elsia way that the

Vrench armies, were Bra forma, by incorporating
the national guards with the regulars. There was
another pare of the Bill which lie alto much approv-
ed ; that which provided for the appointment of
proper officer,. It wand &Retry all the ends for
which this force was to be coiled together, if it were
to be left is a aye of infabordination and confireon.
As to the etpence, confidering the feearii which
would be derived from the poffeffion of fuch a f nee,
he thought that a fubjeft of very inferior re4ard. •••
Hc could, indeed, have witted, that the MCA Mien
be trained, as it took place in certain parts of the
Continent, free of espence ; but as that was not poi-
fable, he thought the advantages more than counter- j
balanced the expenditure.
Mr. S. STANHOPE would have willied to hear
the Right Hon. Secretary's arguments in rapport of
his Bill, becaufe theft arguments might have effetlied
force change on the fentiment he entertained refpe&.
ing it ; and that fentiment was, that it was the reoft
obnoxious, the moll odious and intolerable meafure
that ever any Minifter had the hardihood to fthmit
to Parliament (a try of krar, bear. from the Cvitint).
—lt propofed to call out, by a compulfory levy, one
fourth of the whole popolation of the country capa-
ble of bearing arms, and this without any neceffity.
For if an additional force were neceffary, fufficient
could be had by encouraging the Volunteers; and
why fhould force be employed when men eurnigh
were willing to fiend forward But this Bill eras
peculiarly objeflionable as it involved a politive
breach of faith to the country, who were told in
doe, that if a certain number of Volunteers fhould
come forth, the meafure of a compulfory levy '
fhould not be tanned to. Another obJeftion to this
meafure arofe out of the propofed appointment of
Officers. Did Minillers think it would be a popular
recommendation to the fcheme, that the landed Gen-
tlemen were to have nu mot it'!ion with it ? N it
teemed that thole landed Gentlemen who had before
fubfcribed to the fu port of the Volunteers, were new
to be called upon for perfonal fervice, and, perhaps.
if the Volunteers were to be difbaaded, or difgolled
into refignation, a Gentleman might, in confequence
of this bill, foon find himfelf in the ranks between
his groom and chimney (weeper. But the molt fin-
gular circumfiance connated with this meafure, was
its containing the very principles againft which its
author had been In loudly declaiming for Come years.
viz. ballot, fubllitioion, and fine, and the worn of
all was, that the fines were to be levied on town-
(hips far not doing that which it would be impnffible
for them to do. The Bill on the whole, was fuch a
one as he would propofe—as Mr. Dunning did to-
wards an objeEtionable propofition in the cootie of
the American war—that it thould be thrown over
the table (a laugh).
Sir W. MILNER vindicated the Bill, and the the-
rafter of its authors. With refpeft to the falling off
of the Volunteers, he contended that it was by no
means attributable to the meafure before the Houle,
or to the language of any of his Mairfty's Knitters,
frr loch falling otf had been vifible for many months
back. Indeed the decline of the Volunteer fpirit
mull have been obvious to any man io the habits of
attending the reviews of that force, and particularly
fo to thin': who compered the volt number under
arms in the Park when the Volunteers were reviewed.
by his Majelly at the commencement of the prefent.
war, with the very (mall mutter which appeared at
the loft review.
Lord CASTLEREAGH nbferved that the Right
Hononrable Secretary feemed to rely for the defence
of all his military roe:dines upon the celebrated
fpcech which the Houfe Lai heard from him in the
early part of the Seffien, although that fpeech was
of loch a nature that it ever fines employed the in-
genuity of the Right Honourable Gentleman, aided
by the efforts of his colleague', to render it intelligi-
ble, apd (fill it was, in mull of its parts, a matter of
coin:overly. Yet to this matter of controverfy, the
Right Honourable Secretary left the defence and ex-
planation of the meafure before the Houle, for he
feemed determined to keep his mouth doled at pre-
fent upon the fubjea. To the principle of this Bill, fe-
parated from the period ai which it WAS broii,ht for-
ward. •and fume circumftances connott.d wins ir, he
, had no objeSion whatever to accede. But confidering
the breach of laith which it involved, the expellee that
it omit incur, and yet the inefficiency of the force it
promifed to provide, he could nut perluale himfelflo
fopport it. Nothing could be Co ablurd as to fuppofe
(that twenty-four days training would fuffice to render
men fit to ferve in a regular army. He would put it
to the Houle and the Right Hon. Gentleman who.
thee it would not be better if he required an additional
'force, to wife a (mailer number than the Bill feeci-
,:fical, and have that number effdloalle trained, in the
l!fanue manner, for inflance, as the Militia are in time,
of peace, and upon the fame principle as the Stipple-
mentary Militia. But in fact thine was nat at this p,
iod any fetch oceeflity for adding to our military forces
as there exilled at thwtime he alfilled his Right Hoc.
Friend (Mr. Yorke) in framing a meafine upon the
fame principle as that upon which the Bill before
the Houle was grounded. For at the former pe.
rind, our whole force did not exceed ammo men,
while at prefent. exclufiye of volunteers and artil-
lery, it amounted to no tea than 249„0ti0. There-
fore there was a very material dfirerciace between the
two periods. Indeed he was not aware that this meao
lure wax called for by any new exigency whatever
ariling either out of the hate of our domellic Itrength
or the prctfore of the enemy. The danger of the
country was certainly not fo great now as at the
time the enragement already alluded to was tolemnly
concluded with the country, and yet it was now pro.
pnfed to violate this engagement. The Noble Lord
entered into a companion between the prefent me I-
fere, and that propofed by his Right Honourable
Friend, in rSoe. For the latter it was urged, that
the men, after being trained Mould lie by, liable to be

that 200,000 men,,
after being enrolled twelve months, %mild be ex.

that if this be abided by, his Majetty'u Prerogative
may, in the event of invation, at a certain period,
extend only to one fourth of the people capatulo,
of hearing arms, according to the calculation ret,r.
red to by his Honourable Friend (Mr. S. Sionlope).

Mr. MARTIN could nrt conceive how it could

tsventyieight days in the year thole per( ns who roiglit
be called upon to affitt the Regular A IWO in. Ste
event of an invafine. It was top much to cll every
variation from the eaablifhed rules a mere expetn-
anent. Every amendment of old Ads of ?arliatroents
every new A 9 of Parliament, might with equal W.
tice be called an experiment. One Hon. Gentle:ll.nm
(Mr. Spencer Stanhope) feemtd mc•rnfider that it
was a great breach of faith, that ',lore who had fhb.
fcribed" for Volunteers fhould be listr.le to fel ve them.
The prefenr Bill, however, would not go
further than the old Militia laws, or oblige any roe to
:erne that was pail the age of 45 years. The Sties
upon the parlance were by no means as fevers as inder
the Militia laws, and would only operate, when
there WAS any contumacy in the parifla refilling to i
teed to the baliot. He was canvineed the Bill would
snot at all diminifh the number of Volunteers ; but
that, on the contrary, a great nornLer of perces,
would be enrolled in thiile corps' in order to exempt
them from this ferviee. As to the infafficiency of 2$
days' direipline, he begged leave to Rate, that the
National Guards of France, that reinf .reed their ar-
mies in the firll year of the Revolution, had nor more
military experience, and, he believed, that at the
celebrated and important battle of Jemappe, there
were many who had not been trained for more than
a 8 days.

Mr. MATTHEWS fpolie very warmly in favour
of the Volunteers, whofe fpirited and patriotic eff.rrts

graced, by the treatment they had received from the
Right Hue. Gentleman, in Lis creches in that Houle.
He was afraid this Bill would give the Slatting stroke
to the Volunteers, and that they would be induced to
lity down their arms. They might then, perhaps, be
compelled, fortis of them at lead, to mix themfelves
with this motley alfemblage of the Right Hnn. Gen-
