It ifl'allo satisfactory to find that the most lively feelings of gratitude seem to have been excited by thief benevolent interposition; which it isto be;heped. • will tend to, loins the two party of the Empire by the . stroog ties of sympathy and obligetion. „ .. The nature of the late distress in Ireland was 'PeCtll , iar. In the district` to, which yotar Committee have already adverted,. tile. pouttoe crop, which, fornishee the general food of the, peasantry had failed ; but there was no want of food of another description for the support of Inimati life: On the contrary, the crops of grain had been -far from deficient, and the i prices of corn and of oatmeal were very moderate. The export of grain from ports within the distressed districts of Ireland: was considerable, during the entire period from May to Au. goat, infinitely % exceeding the imPeats . during that period ; and those districts in . die south and, west. presented .the re markable example of possessing a Surplus of food, while the inhabitants were suffering from actual want. The, meritorious patience of, the peakants7, under the pressure of, Want, is here not undeserving of attention and of praise. The calamity of 1022 may therefore be said to have proceeded , leas'frorn the want of food itselfetbanfronetlitt want of adequate means of purchasing it ; ,or in other words from the want of pro-• fitable employment. In some districts, ea at Clonakeltyl Cork), whcrethe pottitoacrop failed, but where some , p a r t of the popu lation was employed in manufectiering indusery, no individual 'engaged in the linen trade is eaid to linvebad occasion to receive relief. This peculiarity in the diameter of the late distrest ' In Ireland appears . to your. Committee to have arisbn from the entire dependence of the: peasantry, Upon the lOod raised by themselves. When the produce of the 'peasant's potatoe groond fails, thee' are' Unaccustomed to have ' recourse to ' markets - and indeed- they, seem. rarely, tn' have the Means of purchasing. The potatue crop is also very variable and tiocer. tain ; nor can the sniplus of one harvest be reserved to supply any deficiency in a sebeequent year. Prom the weight and bulk of potatoes there are great difficolties in the way of itnne. port, and these difficulties prodUce great disproportion berwee_p the prices in one district and thos e in a district immediately ad joining. The 'individuals employed by Government td execute the task confided to them, seem or have proceeded - upon just principle, and with a :wise caution. Feeling the internale- Table objections incidental to any steam of gratuitous re lief, the Government Engineers, the local associations, and the • London Committee, • , endeavoured , to. make labour the" medinta through!' which alone , their aseistance was to be given ; and where from lees correct• vied this reitolution was deviated from, _the most immediate ill consequences ap. 'pear to have ensued. Your Cominittee cannot. too :strongly state their - approbation of this principle; -relief pu rely g mot itoos can seldom in any case be given without considerable risk and inconvenience ; but in Ireland, where it is more peculiarly Un portant to discourage habiti of pnuperiirm and of indolence, and where it is the v obvious polic to eiteite UM independent spirit of industry, and to induce t y he peasantry to. telyupon themselves and. their owa exertion% foe-their support, it tie ob. • vious that gratuitous relief can never be giveo withoot leading t t h h e e r c e o fo n r , e i i , ti t o i n ow intinetry Which are essentially necessary to the Improvement of Itt°poln'n()tshteilrnoillilleawbouttir,c;lia i nn e o ci t u b e" u c t " rep '. - ress An a Y ll g th Yn ose t l i e ) re r i t o e n i s ie o f : Santry to t lepeed upon the 'interposition of • • others rather than o e f v . :1: e h i e l t i t:::l i e n n g ti c Y:t e e s n , d . intended which whie . lll . ead:i the pea, : your Committee have the satisfaction to think, that the re. lief given in 1822 was nOt only effectual for its object ! but wisely and eeonomically administered e and in confirmation of , THURSDAY, ADerrollEß 16, 1823. their opinion they need only refer to the Report of Mr. )(Mille, from whence it appears, that in the County of Clare, " 24,1345 persons, -Least of them unfitted, from age or disease, to procure by labour the means of existence, were supported at an expen re of not quite one penny each per diem." • - • The condition of. the peasantry of those districts of frelaulte which the evidence refers, appears to your Committee tio, be wretched and calamitons to the greatest degree. An hitelligent Scotch Agriculturist,' who visited !rebind during the last year, alleges, " that a large portion of the peosautry live in a state of muter) , of which he could' have formed no eati cept hitt, not integi t ing that any human beings could exist -in such wretchednese4;: their cabins scarcely contain an article thacen be called furni, ture; in some families there arc no such things its bedelotitl, the peasants Khorred some fern, and a quantity of straw thrown over it, upon which they slept in their working-clothes, yet, vejten ever they had anieal of potatoes they were cheerful; the greater part he understood to drink nothing . but water." state ment appears tuniirMed by the teetin onyof blank 'cif the -"- netters examined ,by your .

These fixed payments, whether in the shape ofbead r rons, .Or inceitNt tm ittettinbranceli, are, to a considereble extent, re witted to-England - . The alteration of the value of money has , made th e se fie t el payment.* bear a greater. proportion to t i ne whole' income of the country. than they did during the war, 'and,' consequently, thelialance remaining for the subsistence of tbereeident-gentry.has proportionably diminished. .
