Book Description
Excerpt from A Voice From Ireland Upon Matters of Present Concern: Addressed to Legislators and Ministers of State With a fine country and a grateful soil affording every advantage for cultivation and commerce, and with a hardy race of people, easily aroused by a sense of wrong, but susceptible of the kind and ge nerous feelings, nature seems to have thrown away her choicest gifts, and to have inflicted a curse upon the land instead of a blessing. Yet it is not the work of nature but of misgovernment, arising really but not necessarily from British connection; the re sult of bad policy and of unjust laws, originating in ignorance and rapacity, and persevered in from the same causes. Whether the condition of the people would have been materially improved had they re mained independent is now only matter of specula tion; but as the capabilities of nature are the same in Ireland as in England, there is no reason to sup pose that civilization and improvement would not have taken the same course, the facilities for both being equal. Something, indeed, may be laid to the account of the reformation in religion, which made but small progress in Ireland; but the practical working of the two systems, when united with state policy, is not so widely difierent as to produce the enormous disparity between the two countries which some religious zealots may imagine.
