PARLIAMENTARY DIVISIONS.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-APRIL 14.

(From the Votes and Proceedings of the House of
Commons.)
DUTY ON PAPER.

Motion made, and question proposed, " That the Excise
Duty on Paper, whilst impeding the developement of an
important manufacture, also materially obsti ucts the pro-
duction of good cheap literature ; and the maintenance of
this tax as a permanent source of revenue would be im-
politic and inconsistent with the efforts which Parliament
is now making to promote education amongst the great
body of the people :"—Whereupon the previous question
put, " That that question be now put :"—The House
divided ; Ayes BQ, Noes 279.
