to be wondered at that this is the state of things in Ireland,
and that the population is so miserable, or that any person
entering Ireland for the first time, or pasting over three-
' Ninths of the country, would fluil'himself driven almost
into a "chied melancholy by the miserable condition in
which so much of your country is plunged. From this state
of things comes a wide spread suspicion towards the landlords
among the tenantry, and from these suspicions arise those
outrages which are of so fearful a nature, and which, to
thus who wish to slander Ireland, at least afford them very
fair grounds foe bringing up serious chutes against the
character of your countrymen. Now, my salon of the
tenant question is this, that the bill, whatever it is, must he
of a very simple character. It must beauch as can be weds
out by simple capacities, not such as that a lawyer we
puzzle, it may be, both landlord end tenant—(laughter)—
but such as the meaning may be ascertained without
trouble. (Cheers.) My opinion with regard to compensa-
tion is, that it should embrace building., draining., making
main fences, and rectiiming wastes or bog land; and
that there should, for improvemeuts made after the pass-
ing of this set, be hill and reasonable compensation to
the fewest when he leaves his farm. But the Ulster
teats betala is a different question from composes-
tion to lie rest of Ireland. The Ulster tenant-right
compreheade two sources of value; Best, improvements;
the benefits of occupation. With regard to the
Ann, nt could deal easily ; but as to the seeped, I
sew could discover • mode in which a clause of an set
could do for the tenant what many of them expect. My
remedy would be, in that part of Ireland when tenant
right has never been acknowledged, to give • prospective
' compensation for impronestets, but in the part whets
tenant right hes bees acknowledged and acted upon, 1
weld give • retrospective compeum'ion extending to a
period of twenty years, giving the tenant the present
fait and honest value when be leaves his farm fur all
substantial aad vale ible improvements which he could I
show were made ea that land within the period of twenty 1
years.
A Votes—That won't do.
Mr. BRIGHT—I don't expect it will do for everybody.
I nine that there art cases to which that law would not
do fall and impartial justice, but I believe that in the great
majority of cases it would do a fair meow* of justice ;
and my opinion is, and of course I do not expect that, as
agnostics like this, we should all agree—but my opinion is
that if a lea like that were passed, however much it might
fall sheet of satisfying every section or every individual, it
would be found of prodigious advantage to the tenantry
and the industry of Ireland—(hear)—and it would teach
the Must that he would be placed on a platform of
equality with the landlord, and that the land which he
W improved by the power of his arm and the sweat of
his brim, and by his agricultural ability, should be in
the poussion of himself and of his children. After
some hither observations Mr. Bright concluded as fol-
lows : When I was asked to this great banquet, reference
was made to the part I had taken in end out of parliament.
I am one of those, sensible of the fact, that, whatever bus
been done within the last thirty years within the imperial
parliament for freedom, it always bad the support of the
majority of the Irish representatives ; and I now believe
that, if there is to be auything dune in the way of liberal pro-
gress in the next parliament it would receive the support of a
majority of the representatives of Ireland. There is • great
attempt making to prove with liberals of England that they
can have nothing in common with the eatbnliq represents.

Irish liberal representatives, that I mot a different opinion.
(Hear.) I am not about to justify the part that some of
them may have takeo, nor would I ask them to approve of
all that I have done; but I must say that in the main,

whether of Great Britain or Ireland, have never been found
