DEFENCE of the LANDLORDS of IRE-
LAND, with Remarks on the Relation between Landlord
and Tenant. By W. W. SIMPSON, Member of the Dublin Society,
John 011ivier, 59, Pall-mall, at No. 18, Bucklcrsbury, London ;
Machen, and Co., Westmoreland-street, Dublin.: and to be had of
b°°„ wertr* aft! -deservedly -respected
xr.Auctioneer and Lraid Valuator, has recently- published a pamphlet,
entitled,' A Defence of the Landlords of Ireland, with Rernarka.on the
Relation between Landlord and Tenant.' The 'Dublin Evening
Packet,' in reviewing this work, gives the following cha-
racter of its author :—` Mr. Simpson, we need scarcely
remind our readers, is an Englishman of vast expe-
rience in matters relating to the improvement and value of land
in his own country. He is, inereover, a gentleman of most com-
prehensive views, and possesses an understanding naturally strong,
and a stock of practical knowledge and sterling sense, which falls to
the lot of very few persons in his own or any other rank of life.
With the social condition of Ireland he has made it his business, al-
most as a matter of necessity, to make himself thoroughly ac-
quainted. He feels for her wants, and has contributed as much, per-
haps, as any man in his time, to improve her resources, by encou-
raging the investment of British capital in every department of Irish
industry. Suck a witness as this we therefore hold to be beyond the
reach of suspicion on the score either of interest or partiality. His
testimony must he regarded as invaluable, as it is unquestionably
unimpeachable.' "
