Mr. Secretary YORKE mo►ed that the Houle
thnuld cadet itfelf into a Committee on In much of

the above BiU as provides fur the advancing of a fum
not eaceeding four guineas per man to each perfon
to be railed by virtue of that Aft.
Colonel CRAUFORD declared that, however
well lie might be inclined to lupport a meatUre like
the prefent, if he confidered the Bill purely as a means
inereafing the force of that country, yet when he
law that it was coupled with another meafute for
withdrawing a confiderable body horn the defence,
to the nation which they were bound, not only by,
their contra@ as that clausal military force, hut alt
by every moral and 16641 tie, to defend. When he
law that the plan of Minifters embraced loch general'
and extenfive objetls, he mutt be induced to topple
that the prelim Bill was only a part of the great fyl
tein of the Defence of the Empire, which blinillers
hid A 3 parcelled out and litbdivided that, though it
might not be laid to be pc:teeny in order to (peak th
the nbje& tithe two Bills at the fame time, yet he
thought that no man could fairly fay that, under all
the circumflances of the cafe, they were not each a
part of the fame plan. The gallant Officer then de-
livered a warm eukgium on theloyalty and bravery
of the prefent Itith Militia ; but Paid that, it was no.
Curious that in the rebellion+ confpiracy in that coun•
try. near ;.fourths of the population u ere combined,
and that that rebellion, as indeed is frequently the
cafe, had led to the greatefi ads of violence on both
fides. With loch a filet before their eyes, and when

the Houle confidered how little had been done fince
by Mimi'lersto conciliate the affeflions of the people—
when the Horde took all thele things into their con•
tideration, and when they knew that the Union, which
wa► unpopular in that country, had not produced
the benefits that were exported to refult from it—
when it WAY ken, that c en :he principle article which
was confide' ed as the price of that Union, namely,
the emancipation of the Catholics, was not yet grant-
ed, the Houle could hardly think that it would be
wife i,e politic to withdraw a force from that count, y,
the loyalty and bravery of which had been tried and
could be depended on, and to replace it by a body
of undilciplined troops, whole loyalty and efficiency
lima be confidered very doubtful. The Houle would
recoils t alfo, that, fo apprebenfive was it of the

fafety of the loyal part of the community it, that
country, that it had paffed an Alt. empowering the
Lord Lieutenant to ftsbjea that part of the empire to
'Partial law. - He thmight that Mtniilers had taken

an improper Oen, in recruiting the military force of
the count, y by to many new levies, by which a num-
ber of 'Helot officers were rendered almott, as unfer
•iceable to the nate at the ineffective force nhich
Ali-
ftillers had returned in their ellimate of the flretigth
of the nation. On the whole, the gallant Officer re-
commended that the tliength of liar y iii uld
be increatcd by filling up the battali,.n,. of the Line
and of the Army of Reterve,intlead of by 1.1,11 mean.
