LONDON, MAY IA, 1852.
The Parliamentary proceedings Of the week have
been important. On Monday Mr.. D'IsRAELI NOV
ed for leave to bring in bill to assign the four seats
in Parliament in lieu Of ST. Adams and Sudbury to
the West Riding of Yorkshire and the southern
portion Of the county of Lancaster.
On Tuesday Mr.. SPooNER brought forward his
motion for an inquiry, by means of select COM
mittee, into the system Of education pursued at May
nooh and evidently in spirit unfrendly to the con-
tinuance Of the grant The motion opposed by Mr..
ASsrEY, Mr.. CoBDEs, Mr. HUME and Lord PALMERsToS,
and by Irish members of all shades of politics. and the
debate adjourned until next Tuesday.
The militia bill is dragging very slowly through
mittee.
In the House Of Commons on Wednesday Mr. TuFrSELL
gave notice that he should not proceed with his bill for
abolishing the property qualifications of members Of
Parliament The debate was resumed on the motion to
repeal the duties paper, advertisements and newspa-
per stamps: the first rejected by vote Of 1875 to
O7, the second by Of l8l ll6, and the third by
one OF 1873 to 100 The motion lost in great

disturbing the Chancellor's budget

we constrained to say they much too sangune

and the Peace Associations No praise Of the objects in
view can be misplaced but greatly fear they are I'M
attainabe by the means pursued. Crowded audiences
drawn together in Exeter Hall and elsewhere noble

But short visit to the counting Of Messr FACTS
FIGURES, and brief inspection Of their great Statistical
Ledger viii reveal the following melancholy facts That
more intoxicating liquors consumed in the United
Kingdom in the year l84950 than had been in any pre-
ceding year during present century and after making
allowance for the increase Of population greater guam
ty consumed by each individual in the year 1850 than
in the year l84l And further that there at the
present moment in Europe under arms rready
to assume them than there has been OF any previous time
since the commencement of the Pence movement Alas
alas for the pleasant delusons Of Exeter Hail. and the
amabe anticpations to which have alluded This,is
the melancholy statement Of FACTS what is the evidence
Of FIGURES? We win briefly state it.
Parliamentary papers show that, between 1888 and
l640 the spiritdrinkng community increased two per
CENT the consumption of four per cent In l841
the consumption increased in England and Scotland and
diminished in Ireland.
