The Board of Inland Revenue has lately prosecuted,
through its solicitor, the proprietor of the Brixton
Brewery for selling malt liquors in a place other than
that in which he was licensed to retail them. A publican
was the only witness, and he deposed that he had seen one
).1 of the defendant's drays, in Vassal-road, carrying two
casks of twenty-six gallons each ; that he had been
1 servcd by the man in charge with a glass of
porter, for which he paid a penny, and that -he
had also purchased a pint of ale in a bottle,
)btained from a neighbouring tavern. The defence was
that Mr. Joyce, the defendant, was accustomed to send
not his draymen to canvass for customers, and that they
supplied a glass of ale, by way of sample, to any person
whom they supposed to be a householder. This was, in
fact, a mode of advertising, and " throwing a sprat to
catch a mackerel," but the brewer in this case caught a
Tartar, in the form of a fine of £5, being one-fourth of the
full penalty of £2O. This conviction was probably owing
to the zeal, not altogether disinterested, of the
publican witness, hut it will serve to remind
those who talk of " rights " in connection with
the sale of drink how entirely dependent on legal privi-
leges, and how absolutely limited by it, such " rights"
are now regarded. There is no sale without a license, and
the legalised retailer is localised as to the sphere of his
operations. Let him dare to exceed that and he comes
under the grip of the law. The milkman ana coiter•-
monger may go where they like, and sell to any they Meet ;
but not so can the brewer. A travelling beer-pump is not
I yet numbered among the institutions of Britain. Free
trade in everything is not yet the rule of the land ; and,
if not, why not ?—Alliante IVcckly Ncws.

mously adopted the following resolutions :-1. That the

progress of the movement. 2. That the best thanks of the
Executive Council are due, and are hereby respectfully
tendered to .Sir Wilfrid Lawson, Bart., M.P., Mr. T.
Bazley, and Mr. M. B. Dalway, M.P., for
bringing forward and advocating the claims of the
Permissive Prohibitory Liquor Bill ; and also to
the other members of the House of Commons
who spoke, voted, or paired in faVour of the measure,
and who have thus placed, on record their deep convic-
tion that the people of Great Britain and Ireland ought
to have the. power to protect themselves from
the ravages of the liquor traffic, whenever and
wherever public opinion in any district is adverse
to the traffic. 3. That the Executive Council ex-
press their congratulations and thanks to the various
organisations, and to the many active friends of the cause
throughout the kingdom who have zealously aided in
holding public meitincs, forwarding petitions, and other-
wise promoting the agitzttßin in support of the Per-
missive Prohibitory Liquor 'Pill, and through whose
earnest exertions, cheerfully and gratuitously ren-
dered, such an impression was produced upon the
House of Commons as to induce no deco than
ninety-fourlnenThers to vote and pair in favour of the bill.
4. That the Home Secretary, having now distinctly
pledged himself and the Government to bring in, early in
the next session of Parliament, a comprehensive measure
of Liquor License Reform dealing effectively -with the
admitted anomalies - and 'evils of tbe -system;"the nem,
tive Council of the United Kingdom Alliance callearnestly
upon the friends and supporters of the movement, the
press, and members of Parliament, to siege upon her
Majesty's Government.to redeem its pledges to the feest
possible extent., and to insert clanes in the projected
Licensing Amendment scheme, giving to the ratepayers
of each loea.ay the power to prevent the liquor traffic,
with all its evil consequences, being forced into their
midst.

At a public meeting in Cardiff, attended by 2,000
persons, the following resolution was passed :—" That
this annual conference of the Gwent and Morgauwg
Temperance and Prohibitive Association presents its
warmest thanks to the twelve representatives from the
Principality for their supporting Sir Wilfrid Lawson in his
motion for the second reading of the Permissive Prohibi-
tory Liquor Bill, and whilst they regret, learn that seven
Welsh members voted against the bill, they congratulate
the friends of temperance and moral progress in the Prin-
cipality on the fact that the voice of Wales is distinctly
in favour of the people being enabled to prevent the sale
of intoxicating liquors in their parishes, when &m aj ori ty
desires to be rid of the evils originating in the liquor
traffic."
