§ Hon. Members may like to know the distribution of the troops on the regular establishments. We have abroad, including India, 63 battalions of infantry, 10 cavalry regiments, seven batteries of horse artillery, and 85 batteries of field artillery, pack, medium, and heavy; and we have at home 73 battalions of infantry, including 10 Guards battalions, 12 cavalry regiments, including two of Household cavalry, seven batteries of horse artillery, and 116 batteries of field artillery, pack, medium, heavy, and antiaircraft. We have maintained the Cardwell system of balance between battalions at home and abroad, but only by including in the troops said to be at home those which are in fact upon the Rhine.
