IRELANDIfI our preceding columns we have
inserted the Report from the Select Committee
of the House of Commons on the employment of
the. poor in Ireland. We have not room in our
present paper for the femarks .upon, it which we
wish to present to our Readers, nor for extracts
front the Minutes of Evidence, which, however, we
shall take hereafter. We are sorry to see that the.
Report is founded on the grand errors in Political
Economy that have produced so much delusion
on every subject connected with the, national
prosperity and happiness. The panacea now held
nut for Ireland is, that English capital should be
induced to embark itself in th►e agriculture and
manufactures of that country, and thus to convert

Ireland into a ruinous competitor with Eng-
land in those branches of industry to which
England owes her present amount of prosperity!
Jut the, true remedy for Irish poverty, and
for the social and political evils to which Irish
-poverty bus given birth, would be found in
enabling the Irish people to consume, not

only the wealth which they now produce,
but the further wealth which they are capable
of producing:- It is a most pernicious er-
ror to assume, that ,Ireland is not possessed of
sufficient Capital for the employment of all her
Topulation. The very labour itself, which is now
.unemployed,is cqn* tad; and labour,being the source
of all wealth,is capable of producing an abundance
,of every thing required, not only for maintaining
ilhe wants ofthe people, but, under skilfularrange-
meats, for affording a profit to the land-owners,
&c. &c. If there were no means of maintaining the
:unemployed labourers until they could provide
for themselves, then, indeed, it would be true
that there was a deficiency of capital; for that
portion of capital (and it is the most important
one), which is comprized in labour itself,
would of course be soon desiroyed by
_famine.
But, the unmployed,-or partially employed,
labourers, are maintained. The country which
they inhabit abounds with materials and
' means for their benefical employment. The
requisite capital, therefore, for the immediate
production of vastly increased wealth,—for
the formation of machinery,— and for the
further progressive accumulation lie a
capi-
tal, to any extent that may be required,
actually exists at this moment in the sister island;
. and is only prevented from becoming beneficially
active, by the errors and counteractions of our
economical systems, and by national ignorance
of the true principles of economical science.
