ver to give a fuller outline to that most unreal
nd fleeting shadow—that most unreal and fleecy shadow
—that most impalpable, airy project he had faintly adum-
urated in the past week. Seeing that the projector of
the Connaught bubble was mute and silent, William
Brown took courage, and boldly as truly told the house
that there was plenty of land in Ireland for sale at pre-
sent, but no purchasers. But William Brown, being a
corn-law repealer, only stated as much as served his pur-
pose, and did not give the reason why there were no pur-
chasers. There are no purchasers, because the iniquitous
Corn Bill of this same pseudo-Connaught planter, Peel,
has ruined, has utterly destroyed, the agriculture of Ire-
land. What man of capital will risk it in Irish lands, if
the produce be not remunerative of his outlay, his skill,
and his experience ? Unless the tenants cultivating es-
" tates obtain the land on terms ruinous to the whole race
a I of proprietors, it is impossible for such tenants to make a
e living, even on a potato diet. And with the prices of corn
) at thir present low standard, in a year when the harvest
has been so deficient as the past, we doubt that even pro-
, prietors, having the fee of Irish unencumbered estates,
and farming their own lands, can make both ends meet.

This is the tured in any part of Ireland. Much of the prime mess
of our beef formerly made up for our navy and merchant ships
at Cork, Waterford, and Limerick, is now purchased at
Hamburgh or Altona ; and Liverpool, Birmingham, and
..,n Bristol, which used to have beef, pork, hams, and butter
in from Ireland, now obtain vast quantities of beef and hams
from Spain, from Portugal, from Holland, and from
and of butter from Dunkirk, from Belgium, and
from Holland. If Irish agriculture were protected to the
most moderate degree, Trish agricultural operations would
.d proceed as usual, and Irish estates find a ready sale. But,
v if agriculture be not remunerative, who will invest money
in land, and how can agriculture be remunerative if the
untaxed foreigner is to compete in British markets with
the native Briton and the native Hibernian manacled and
fettered by heavy taxation ? No; disguise it as he will,
