Ireland The progress which ed
ucatIon has made in Ireland within
the last twenty years is perfectly aston
ishing. From the reforms made by the
clergy in 1903, the number of schol
ars attending all the schools was esti-
mated at 200 600. 1t was found to
be 3948l3 when the general census
was taken IN 1921, and in 1924 il had
risen to $50, $40, according to returns
made by the established clergy, and
to 500 964, according to those made
by the Catholic priests The amount
of education has thus been almost trip.
led in sixteen years If we estimate
the population Of Ireland, in 1894, al
z 500 600, the children q. school will
amount to nearly l,l3th part Of the

to inquire into the expediency Of amending, as fol-

| MIR: Dwight cordially approved the instructions
especially IN relation to assessing the duties on the
value OF the goods here, and not abroad This one
feature would be OF more value to the manufactu
ring interest than the whole of the Tariff Bill.

it was decided in the negative by yeas and nav,
