ROUSE OF COMMONS, Feb. 22.

The SPEAKER took the Chair at the usual hour.
Several petitions were presented for leave to obtain
private Bills.
Mr. ESTCOURT brought up the report of the COM-
mittee on Standing Orders.

Mr. W. PATTEN presented a petition from the
Board of Guardians in Lancaster, complaining of the
operation of the bastardy clause of the New Poor-law
Bill.
Lord POLLINGTON presented a petition from a
body of licensed victuallers deprecating the increase of
railways, and praying to be relieved from the burdens
imposed upon them.
Mr. WILLIAMS presented a petition from Coventry
deprecating war as inconsistent with the spirit of Ch
ris..
tianity, and complaining of the great expenditure of
the public money in keeping up a large standing army.
Mr. S. CRAWFORD presented a petition from Roch-
dale, complaining of inadequate representation and
other grievances. The Hon. Member said, he felt it his
duty to state that the heading of the petition was not in
the usual form. It was addressed "To the representa-
tives in the Commons House of Parliament of the
950,000 British subjects, who at present possess the
right of exercising the electoral franchise."
The SPEAKER said, that if the House received the
petition, it would imply that they did not represent the
country at large. The language not being respectful to
the House, if the Hon. Member wished it to be received
he had better take the sense of the House on the motion
that it be brought up.

Mr. S. CRA\VFORD said that after that intimation
he would withdraw the petition.
Mr. WALLACE presented a petition from 2,033 pe
rative bleachers in• the west of Scotland, complaining- of
the mode in which their business is now conducted, as in-
jurious to health, and praying to be included in the Factory
Act. The Hon. Gentleman also presented a petition from
the same place, signed by 4,648 persons, confirming the
statemewts made in the other petition. Ile gave notice
that he should to-morrow move that these petitions be
printed with the Votes, with a view to a motion to place
the petitioners within the operation of the Factories Bill
now before the House.
Mr. M. GIBSON presented a petition against the
Gaming Penalties Disabilities Bill.
Mr. PAKINGTON said he should postpone to the
7th of March the consideration of his Bill to define and
regulate the periods for holding quarter-sessions in cities
and boroughs.
Dr. BO WRING announced his intention of postponing

FLANDERS MAIL.

BRUSSULS, Fxß. 21.—The King arrived at St. Hubert on
the 14th, and on the 15th went to hunt in the adjoining
forest. The party soon found two wolves, a male and female;
the former escaped,: but, the female advanced towards the
King; who, when she was at the distance of 60 paces, fired
and wounded her, and with a second shot killed the animal.
This wolf, which is of extraordinary size, has been sent to
the palace of Lacken, where it arrived yesterday. The Queen
ordered it to be sent to Brussels to be stuffed.

Our readers have notforgotten the unfortunate result which
many of our manufacturers experieaced from the expedition
of the slug, :the Count of Flanders. This vessel left Ostend
with a cargo of. Belgian manufactures, worth 500,000 francs,
which was confided to, the care of M. Commaille, our Consul
at the Cape of Good Hope, who was to sell them by touching
at several transatlantic ports. „The vessel sailed in October,
1842, but encountered a violent storm in the Channel, and
was forced to 'put into Ramsgate. Disputes ensued. The
.owners.of the goods gave some particulars of the arrange-
ment made by M. Commaille with the shipowners, which
they- disapproved,,and a law .suit was the consequence. We
now. find the following notice in the, journals of Bruges and
Ostend:— :

ibis morning at ene o'clock, the Belgian brig, the Count
of Flanders,, arrived here,- after having stopped sixteen
months in the port of Ramsgate. The vessel will proceed

decided that the Emperor and Empress of Russia will visit
Copenhagen in the course of the next summer, and that they
will perhaps be accompanied by some other members of the
Imperial family."
TVRKEY (no date).—The Turkish Government has estab-
lished a mail for the conveyance of letters between Constan-
tinople and Bagdad, which leaves Constantinople once a
fortnight, and reaches its destination in 19 or 21 days. The
letters to Bagdad must. be addressed to a correspondent in
Constantinople, who is to put them into the post in that city.

STATE OF THE COUNTRY.

Not only is the country tranquil, but the people seem
determined to avoid all temptation to outrage or insubor-
dination. The Galway Vindicator mentions a very gra-
tifying illustration of this spirit amongst the peasantry.
On Tuesday evening a fellow, who had been some days
in that town, obtruded himself at a meeting of the Tem-
perance Society, and, says that journal, " commenced an
harangue of the most treasonable and seditious tendency,
advising the people to an appeal to arms, in furtherance
of the liberation of O'Connell and their legislative
independence, until he was cut short in his address by
a rough and speedy ejectment from the room."

D RUNKENNESS.

A return has been made during the present
session of Parliament on this subject, which cannot
fail to excite interest, as it is one which is, in a
statistical point of view, illustrative to a certain
extent of the moral condition of the people of
this vast metropolis. The returns moved for
by Mr. Ilume were " of the number of persons taken
into custody for drunkenness, and for disorderly con-
duct, by the metropolitan police, in each year from
1831 to 1843 f both inclusive, distinguishing each, and
stating the population of the metropolitan police dis-
trict in the years 1831 and 1843 ; and a similar return
fur the City of London."
From this document we glean the following sin-
gular results :—The maximum amount of persons
taken into custody for drunkenness is to be found in
the years 1831, 1832, and 1833, and the minimum in
1843 :

In 1831 they were, males and females ... 31,353
1832 ditto ditto .. 32,636
1833 ditto ditto 29,880
Taking the population according to the census of
1831 at 1,515,585, then the number of persons
taken into custody for drunkenness was in these pe-
riods respectively as about 2 1-15th, 2 1-17th, and
1 and a fraction out of every 100. In 1843 the
number of persons taken into custody for drunken-
ness fell to 10,890, which, taking the census of
1841, say 2,068,107, was in the proportion of little
more than in every 100. In the City of London
also the same gratifying result is shown
In 1840 the numbers were 5,113, which, on
the estimated population of 124,876, was in the enor-
mous proportion of full 4 1-10th out of every 100.
In 1843 the numbers were 2,595, which, taking the
official estimated population at 125,273, was in the
ratio of 01 to every 100. Let us hope, from these
facts, that temperance is becoming more general
among the labouring classes of the metropolis. Its
beneficial influence on the social condition of the
people must be evident to every man.

PIINCH WILLIAM OF PRUSSIA.—His Royal High-
ness landed at Woolwich on Tuesday evening, between
eight and nine. He proceeded almost immediately to
town, and stopped for the night at the Prussian Lega-

Tier Bunsen. His Royal Highness from thence will pro-
ceed to Bushy Park, to visit her Majesty the Queen
Dowager. The Prince will afterwards proceed to Ke

A sumptuous banquet, to be followed by a brilliant
evening entertainment, will be given at the Prussian
Legation on Friday next, in honour of the arrival of his

he arrival of the surgeon, a minute or two afterwards,

it was manifest that life had become extinct within a
few seconds of the unfortunate occurrence, his skull, on
examination, being found crushed like a broken egg. His
clothes and the place from which his body was removed
were literally deluged with blood. An inqu(st was held
yesterday, before Mr. Carttar and a respectable jury, in
her Majesty's Victualling-yard ; and after a long and
patient investigation of the circumstances, a verdict was
returned of " Accidental Death.,.
The deceased was
twenty-nine years of age, and has left a widow far ad-
vanced in pregnancy, and two children to deplore his
untimely death.
SERIOUS ACCIDENT.—An accident, which it is
feared may be attended with fatal results, occurred on
the evening of Tuesday last, to a private in the 2d Bat-
tallion of the Soots Fusilier Guards, stationed at Windsor,
named Hannent. The unfortunate man, in attempting
to climb up the ragged pieces of granite of which tl,
pedestal of the bronze equestrian statute of George
(on Snow-bill, at the extremity of the Long-walk) is
composed, unfortunately missed his footing, and fell from
a height of upwards of twelve feet, terribly shattering
himself against the projecting stonework, before he
reached the ground. It was feared that his back was
broken, and he was conveyed to the hospital, with as
little delay as possible, in the most excruciating torture.
Up to yesterday afternoon he was considered to be in a
tate. From the man in • manner which the
most dangerous s
stonework of the pedestal is constructed it is a feat at-
tended with extreme danger to climb to the summit ;
but it is next to an impossibility to descend again (how-
ever great the caution used) without the aid of a rope or
ladder. This is not the first accident of a similar nature
which has occurred at the statue, arising from fool-
hardiness.
On Saturday night cherries were
cried in the streets in Shoreditch at one farthing per
pound.
There was a terrible encounter on the 23d July,
in the morning, on Wall-street, Louisville, between Dr.
Holland and a chap pretty well known in these parts by
the fancied cognomen of " Judge Rowan." We under-
stand that the fight was for a long time of doubtful issue,
but that the Judge finally bore off the Doctor's spectacles
as true trophies of victory. Expectation of a duel is now
all on tiptoe,--New York Paper.
