Mr. RYD ea roe, pertinent to notice, to submit a measure to .. the House. which appeared to him essential to the security of the I.ltiited Kiegdotil Whatever difference might exit on any . other qut cion—ewl etht r it was thought that England ought to • •confine herself merely Le a defensive system, and leave t. e Con tinent to its fate—or wet:cher it was illtiff:4 beet to persevere in that which had latehr been crow:mei with such signal success— still as long as it wait fouedneeeeeary.to continue tile contest in which w•• were tinavoitiabiy :engaged, it was their paramount fluty to dispose of the lel itaey force of the country in •that man ber which would most centribeee to its security. To de this, therbught to make :kWh distributinn of that part of it intended for home defence, as wuu!d leave the ereatest possible diipos able force. This, however, could not be dene while the set - vices fehe Militia of England and Ireiatid were severally con lined to their respective countries. It was obvious to every one, 'that occasion , must arise in which the distribution of our force, which he was about to propose, (the interchange of the militia), • w.tuld be of the greatest advantage. instances were wonte ' In which such a distribetien o: oar force would be desirable, he would refer them to the last campaign. If was true it had been so gloriously terminated that the puhllc. had nothing to regret, and all past etixitei, s and alarms had been forgotten in one stint tiwnt of untversal j He, however, le.t he ought to revert to one period ofethat campaign, which had led to what he must call a great crisis in the history of tens country, if not to a great crisis in the history of the World. He must recall them to that period when is was thought nee-nary te reinforce the army un der the co !nand of Lord Wellitigton. The reinforcements were obliged to be sent from ell state poets. He would call the recollection of the Reuse to Cie anxiety wi It which they were watched while oil their way to joie' I,ord Welliegton, both here and in Portugal. If, at that time, without the risk .and trouble of sending for troles to : 1 1cily and to Helitax, it had been in their power to tran,po t a pat t of -that fine army which was then and is now locked up in Ireland, hew ,!.v.! - At would have been the advantage. Ou tide- tetil - eiect there.would be but one ulA nion and wenl.l ally Man be hold enough to say such a err-is would never again occur, and that they ought not to avail thenl - selves of every thing in their power to provide for the recur rence of such a crisis ? If this wee true, when speaking of the war in ilortitg .1, whielt might be retarded as the advanced • guerd of Ireland, as it was tile •spot where Ireland could be as well &tended 24 on her own shores; of what importance would not the proposed erratigetrient be, should the seat of war. be • changed, and eve be obliged to tight the battles of Europe in other parts? The advantages to be expeco.d in such a case were soUbeitnis,•thet were he to stop here, he thought enough • ' would appear to have been seed to prove the expediency of mak ' ing the prcenoeed distr.bution of our force; hurt he would not confine Lis view of the aeiventaecslikely to result from it to those which might be expected, with regard to our military opera * theme The moral and pn:iticel advantages by which it would be followed were not itiliaier impute:ince.

So long as limner; na ture remained constituted as it was at present, it was im poeeible that the tenses er which he hail spoken should tail of producing the .tireete which he had described. 'I he ;)'an might tail of meeting the apprObation of the militia Officers ; but when tliey considered how little were the sect-tees they were called upon to make, Wht-ft compared wi-h what they lied cheerfully underg ne t and i:oteAciering the great obj e ct h e ld in view, he molted they would not withhold their approbanon.— One objection he had. heard stated, the distance to which it wuuld necessarily tete the Officers frvnt their hotrtee.• el'o this be had to reply, that in nineteen lose:meet; out of twenty in Eng land, anti universally in Scotland, they wt•re removed farther front their home; than they %yodel be if unwed to serve in he t:nil. This, therefore, he thought could not he a very great ob jection. The Bill which he proposed to bring in, would be formed on the plan chalked out by his Noble friend on the THE NATIONAL iitIAiiSTER. subject (Lord Castlereagh), when he delivered his sentiments to the liou,e. The 1M would contain clauses, or oviding that' one fourth of the EtKlich kvittittasimatd . strirve in Ireland far two 'ears, ard that one-third of the Irish Militia should do duty in England for three years ; neither of them to be called upon again till it came to tlit m in rotation, and neither to be thus sent from England to Ireland, nor from Ireland to England, without special .directionc from his Majesty. The outline of the plan was formed so, that in eight years the English Miiititl would all have served in Ireland, .aid in nine years all toe Irish Militia in England. The personal sacrifices individuals might be called upon to make, were ohly such as were existed by duty. Their exertions might shorten the period for which those exertions wouhl be required, or at least it would furri.,h the means of pro , ..cuting the war with ef:cct. The Right 11:,n. Gentleman thc!l moved: " Fur kayo to bring in a rill to permit the interchange' 01 English anti Irish Militias resrectively." Mr. TtcuE approved of th ptinciple of the Bill; but gave 4t as his opiniod that the Article of War which authorises a L:om• mander to march his soldiers to church, should be explained or dove away, su as not to affect the Irish Catholics in England. Mr. W. WYNNt did not mean to oppose bringing in the till, yet he thought considerable difficulties opposed themselvts to the seccess of the plan. Lord CASILEREACH saw no insuperable difficulties in the way, and thought the iniEtia would coon assimilate itself to the new arrangement, and that if the I-louse could not tfrect all they wished at once, it w;:s in th..ir power to make a be -Inning to provid e that the nnhtia, in time, shotild become what it ought to be. • Colonel Duce ETT approved of' ti.e . pDlicy of the measure.
