For this characteristic Saxon yelping over the expatriation and destruction of a million and a half of the Irish people caused by fever and famine, see Saturday Review, London, Nov. 28th, Ill fares the land to hastening ills a prey, Where wealth accumulates and men decay; Princes and lords may ?ourish or may fade A breath can make them as a breath has made But a bold peasantry. A country's pride.
