Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from How to Make Ireland Self-Supporting: Or, Irish Clearances, and Improvement of Waste Lands
The despair and terror inspired by these clearances among the peasantry, and the dread felt by all of suffering the same fate, is the real cause, not merely of the agrarian outrages by which they strive to intimidate landlords and agents from such proceedings, but also of their general disloyalty and readiness to revolt against the law and the Government, which not only affords them no protection against such cruel treatment, but lends all its authority and power, civil and military, to sanction and support its in?iction.
