The total deaths registered in the metropolitan districts , which in the first week of May were 972 , and iii the second rose to 1070 j declined itt the week that ended last Saturday to 943 . ; Hie mean' weekly temperature rose in the three weeks from 48 * 1 ° to B ^ ' 6 . In the , ten weeks corr 09 pondng to the last , of the years 1842-51 , the average number was 889 , which , if raised in proportion to increase of population , becomes » 78 .

m the last in 131 : Bronchitis , belonging to the last class , has declined in the two weeks from 79 tb 60 . Phthisis , of the tubercular order , has fallen from 142 to 129 . Of epidemic disorders , small-pox carried off 38 " children and 6 adults . The corredted average is 18 . It id only reported in three cases , those of A boy aged one year , and a boy and girl severally four years , thai vaccination had been previously performed . TS & x , b in fatality are scarlatina and hooping-cough , each pf which destroyed 42 lives .

Saturday, May 22. Theee Subjects Pf Grea...
Saturday , May 22 . Theee subjects pf great inierest occupied the attention of the House of Commons ^—our foreign policythe deferred clauses of the railitia bill- —and the constitution of Kew Zealand . . Lord PAiittBfiSTON drew the attention of the Government to "the reports in circulation respecting the attempts being made by foreign influences to change the constitution of Spain . But instead of boldly describing and branding those foreign influences , he delivered a long essay oh the benefit of constitutional government , on the part we nave played in extending
those benefits to various nations , and bow essential it was that we should support , with pur influence , the nations who enjdyed them , fiis object wai to elicit such a declaration of the opinion of the Cabinet as should disabuse thcise who imagined that the arbitrary system of government received the countenance of her Majesty ' s pres ^ ttt Miriisteiis . . , l * he re |) iy ybuehsafed by irfr . Kspaeli \ frals extremely vri ^ ueV He gave dp declaration Of opinion on the subject . He agreed with much ; of what Lord Palmer * stbtl had said in prflise of coiistitutiPilal goverimient , but characterized it as , on the whole , unmeasured . He demanded that ( Government , shoflM have credit for resecting the rights of nations . " He feigned
ignorance pi * the source pf the " menaced darigersjr he hoped ^ had read a lesspn td all ett * emie parties : ciir ih ' zsftion would not tolerate " extreme opinions ;" andj aSStimirig the pfopiie * i 6 toacf ie said :. " . "Id nty ojnhioiny \ i 6 th . the sovemgn and the people , in every instance ^ have escaped considerable perils , great though m ^ y be the Cost ; but of this I feel convinced / that whether it arises from the highest or from the lowest quarter—¦ whether it be froin desjpotic monarchs or froin Bdd Eepubiicans--if that spirit , of disorder again arises in EnropeSj there is not the same prospect of its so speedily being allayed . ( Lottd cries oT ' Hear ,. hear . * " ) Nptnirig came of this wordy episode , except this- ^ that Lord Pahnerstoii stood forward as the dhanfpioii of continental freedom .
The next subject was the Militia . The main thing accoiiiplisned was of great importance . Byainajority of 151 to Gl / Clatise 25 being read , repealing so mu ' ch of 42 George . Ill ;«» authorizes the militia being drawn out diid eitibo & iediit cases of rebellion andin & wrrectiort , was , with the conseiit of the Governrnent , struck out of the bill . This was held by Mr . Gibson arid Mr . Bright to bo a breach 6 f fiiith . Finally , the preamble was agreed to ; the House resumed ; the Bill was reported , and orderM to be redd a third time on Monday .
The second redding ) of the New Zealand Constitution Bill afforded an occasion for one Of those displays of great speaking which now and then occur m the House of Commons . Sir Wli / I / IAM Molb ^ Wobth opened the debate by a long speech , in which he closely and ably arialyjted the bill > describing it tis a Brobdignagian meastire , devised for the gevemment of a liiUiputiari colony . It would create six separate legisktures , libject Ui a central executive , which , in its turn , would be subject to the Colonial Office . It provided not only for an iniperium in impefio , but for six petty colonies in one , with a variety of conflicting codes . He advocated a central legislature , with municipalities for local purposes ; and an abolition of the system of nomination continued by this bill * He further counselled delay , arid insisted upon talcing the opinion of the colonists .
Mr . AJrt > EEi , Et criticized the speech of Sir William , and deprecated any longer delay . The * difference between the plan Of the Government and that of Sir Williarii were merely riomirial . Supporting this view , and especially urging the House to rtvoid delay , Mr . J . A . SatlTH and Mr . F & bdbbiox PbbI . delivered short and pithy speeches . The latter pointed out that tho great merit of the Bill lay in the fact that it was based on the " principle of accommodation" to local circumstarices . Mr , Vbbnokt SStlTtt supported Sir William Molesworth , while Mr . Evtoar Dnif ison took a medium cottrfle—he doubted , arid asked for information .
Mr . GAADfltfoNB reviewed the ^ holo modem system of colonisation , contrasting it disadvantageous ^ with that poKoy whioh ha < l fonrided tho United States of America rthd grrinted the charter of Rhodo Island . Our ancestors wont out carrying with them the institutions and Habits of English freWnan ; they grew up from iwnftll colonies- into large states , developing those institutions and Imbits , not by moans of assistance derived from the mothdr country , bttt from their own inherent strength ond free growth ; They hod local power * , armed loftfl fotcea , and liberty of managing their own dfluittfc Bat the raodorri system talked of tramirig coloittiflttf for fetto & oni ; and ! Instead of pdrmjttinw item , to goytt * ttettisrfM tbi ) ( jotttemont of tho
toninionesfc questioii between the mother coiintry and the colony occupiedL two or three years . How could such a system be prosperous ? For the rest , the present bill was a credit to the Government , stpd he advocated it chiefly on the . grounds that it recognised local settlements ( so far reverting to the policy of Out ancestors ) , conceded , to a certain extent , local legislation ,, threw Over ihe modern superstition of the necessity of a Crown influence , proposed to give the
colony the control of its own lands , and included large powers for colonial alterations of the work of the British Parh ' amerit . On the other hand , he objected to the concurrent jurisdiction of the legislative government ( from which he thought the utmost evil would arise ) , and to the necessity for home ratification of local acts . Mr . Gladstone ' s speech occupied nearly an hour and a half , arid he was warinly cheered as he concluded with , att apology for having spoken so long .
Sir John Pakington ' s reply fell flat on the House . The gist of it was , that the colonists asked for immediate 1 legislation , and the bill before the House was the best thing of the kind he could concoct . After a few words from Sir James Gkaham :, Mr . Mangies , and ¦ Rtr . " WAiiTEB , the bill was read a second time , and committed for the 3 rd of June . In the House of Lords , the Earl of Derby , in reply to the third arid he hoped the last time of asking , said Government had not at present any intention to revoke the graht to Maynooth .

Lastriight Mr . Cr . Thompson asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department to specify the grounds on which the Metropoh'tan police had prohibited the Sunday meetings in Bonnets-fields . Mr . WAtPOLB said , that the meetings to which the hoh . irieiriber had referred had given great oifence to the respectable inhabitants of the neighbourhood of Bonner ' s-fieldSi in consequence of the blasphemous and demoralizing character of the discussions which took place there on the Sundays ; numerous
complaints having reached the Commissioner of Woods on the subject , instructions were given to prohibit the meetings , and the police had prohibited them accordingly ; but , instead of proceeding summarily against the parties , as they might have done , they had contented themselves with dispersing the meetings ( Hear . ) The police , in doing that , had done no more than they had done some years ago , when they prohibited similar meetings in the Green-park , St . James ' spark , arid Hyde-park . ( Hear , hear . )
