Says a recent writer on Ireland : " An Irishman has nothing national about him except his rags." Or another : " Let an EngHshman exchange his bread and beer, and beef and mutton, for no breakfast, for a luke- "warm lumper at dinner, and no supper. With such diet, 64 THE AMEEIOAN QUESTION.
ho-w muoli better is he than an Irishman? — a Celt, as he calls him. No, the truth is, that the misery of Ireland is not from the human nature that grows there — ^it is from England's perverse legislation, pas...t and present." Or, let us look at our own shores ! How often we find the brave and warhke Celt of former days, crippled and degraded by ages of tyranny and oppression! But, England is philanthropic, and the Irish are not Negroes, nor are they Slaves !
Or, let us turn our eyes away from Ii'eland across the ocean, toward that happy land of emancipation. Says a recent writer: "A short term and cupidity strain the lash over the poor Coolie, and he dies ; is secreted if he lives, and advantage taken of his ignorance for extended time when once merged in plantation-service, where inves- tigation can be avoided." But again, the Coolies are no Slaves ; they are but hired servants, and England's philan- thropy is safe !
