Do you think tbat at the rate of .€2O a man, it woukibe posdble •
for the Government to send encash of persons out of Ireland to have
any material effect upon the superabundant population of the country?. •
, I certainly am inclined to think,.froin all.the infor-
mation I have been able to acquire, that there are dis-1
tricts in Ireland in which tha abotriction of 200,0J0.
unemployed persons (and persons who, whatever m.y
I be their conduct in Ireland under their existing circum-
stances,
would be likely to make very good emigrants)
' would be attended with the best results. .
' You have stated, that the superabundance of population in Ire- • .
land is Merelyreladve; do not you think that the applying the foar ,
millions, which it would cost to export those two hundred thousand •
• persona, as capital in Ireland, would give then sufficient employ- '
, meat, so as not to make them superabundant pliptilation in Ireland ? •
If lam (liked that question, I certainly ain-uippinioo

_ take place from the introduction of capital, igtel 414 W •

I Dave you been able to ascertain what are the deicrkition of pee- - •

It was said that this emigration was not limited to the
t
r poor; whereas, in fact, it was limited to persons utterly.: ..
without capital. . .
Ara ttil persons who have emigrated of that description of pier.
I use who could not find employment at home?

If the capital was employed in manufactures, it ?would be repro-
