IRISH CoNMlssIoNs.-EarlM Mayo, the Irish
Secretary, in his late speech=in Parliament
stated as an evidence of the prosperous con-
dition of ireland, that she consumed more
sp;r;;sso;s liquors than d: any period
1t has been universally ridiculed. When
the English Government labors under any
pressure for ameliorating the condition of
Ireland, she raises Commission. which
serves two purposes: 1. To give salaries to
dependents. 2. To manufacture blue book,
rule OF Great Britain, aud the comfort and
happiness of her Irish subjects. A London
periodical f1rnishes US with specimen of
some of the statistics contributed to one Of
these Commissioners, which came very near
being officially Published. as genuine.
Some years back an Irish Commission OF
Inquiry circulated y set of inquiries on the
condition of the poor. Some Individual sent
in set Of netrical answers not very COM
plimentary to the Commission, and not ex.
actly conveying the kind of information
wanted. The answers to the interrogatories
were actually printed-at least q part-for
q blue book, before the character of the
communication was understood and the
impression erased. l give some of the
queries and their answers:-
@. (4.)-What Is the ordinary diet, and condi-
ton with respect to clothing, of the laboring
classes in your parish!
A.-The general diet is potatoes and point,
For seldom, if ever, they see any joint;
Their clothing is various, as every fool
knows;
Some dacent, some ragged, without any
hose. .s. -;-
Q. GeWhat would be the yearly'expense of
food for an able bodied laborer in full work, at
the average price of provisions during each of
the last three yearsf ..-
A-And now for this auestion:-to answer it
right,
will send you a man with fair appetite; +;
You can feed him n quarter, and judge
pretty near
What would be a just average during the
year;
@. (9.)-What is the usual rent of cabins with
out lsndf :.
A.-From to two pounds they will
promise to pay;
"I.l forgive you the rint if You give up
-H the kGy;" EE.H
He then gets another, Who acts the same
@. 1o}-of what description of buildings are
those cabins, and how fmrnisheds Are they
supplied with bedsteads aud comfortable bed-
dingf
IA cabin consists of the walls, roof and
floor;
with sometimes a window, and mostly a
Their beds are of straw and, instead of a
A slip of pig, to keep their feet snug
All the metrical answers are odd and
| rather good but the oddest thing is that
they SO nearly made their appearance in
the shape of a blue book.
