1796.
Bills for putting the country into a proper state for resisting an expected French invasion were contested hotly. Against one of their proposed provisions Mr. Wilberforce protested in his private Intercourse with Mr. Pitt. " It is intended I observe, " he heard from Mr. Stillingfleet, "that the supple- mental corps of militia should be trained on Sunday after- noon ; this comes rather to remind than to solicit you to use all your influence to prevent the intended evil. When a like proposa...l was made by Lord Sheiburne many years ago, I wrote to the present Bishop of London to beg him to inter- fere with the other bishops to prevent it, and received a most proper answer, that the obnoxious clause would be omitted. " The Bills themselves he supported strongly, and was more than once called up by the factious temper of the opposition. " I will not charge them, " he said, Nov. 2d, " with desiring an invasion, but 1 cannot help thinking that they would re- joice to see just so much mischief befall their country, as would bring themselves into office.
