and suffer misery consequence than those animals
who uniformly obey the laws of their nature as given 10
them at their creation without nsaney attempting to OPP
them or more insaney to imagine that the Creating
Power made them bad by nature
The population Of Ireland now by education habits,
and all external circumstances OF mans immediate crea-
non, forced 20 acquire in remarkable degree this
perverted character opposed that nature which has
been gwen TO them at birth BY the unchangng laws OF
And this is the permanent cause OF the past and present
excited state OF feeling In the Irish population, and OF
the mpossibty while these errors at the foundation OF
the character Of the people and construction OF society
Britain, or even in Ireland Itself to govern that island
with permanent satisfaction 10 any party TO It's
prosperity; Every such attempt must fail
Yet Ireland Possesses a SOIL climate, and population
capable OF being made as previously stated, second
garden OF Eden BY system Of society based solely
the eternal laws OF God respecting humanity and under
constitution SIMPLE, harmonious and beautiful IN all its
results the inhabitants May be made 10 enjoy superior
and rational state OF existence a constitution the laws
OF which would be made in conformity with the laws OF
Cod the practice OF which would be to create the best
character, TO give the most beneficial occupation, with
the most Just government, that would insure permanent
practical equality according TO sex, age and natural
pacity -.
These results may be now obtained but ONLY obtain
ed BY AN ENTIRELY NEW COMBINATION OF
SUPERIOR EXTERNAL CIRCUMSTANCES, cacu-
lated to well educate, employ, govern and place each
one from birth 10 death, on principles OF UNION.
The construction aud arrangement of these superior
circumstances contrary 10 most mems present notions,
entirely state OF society," exempt from falsehood

OF society that will be conduc ted without counefacton,
disorder confusion, and al less than one-ourth the
expense required 10 carry the business and gov
the population in the wretched and most irrational
manner which now prevails throughout the island.
Ireland, *,
the best field which the world affords upon which TO
commence and fairly test the change from TO truth
CAN BE FOR THE WORSE, and because no popula-
ton can be placed within more unfavorable artificial
more favorable natural circumstances.
In the ordinary expressions OF the present irrational
system il will be said that Ireland is disgrace Great
Britain, impraciicabe problem 10 its statesmen and
political economists, and under all past changes source
of poverty, disunon, and misery 10 the OF It's pop
ulation. .. ... ..-.. .E..
Ireland has thus as stated, been the scapegoat OF
false system, and has experienced most OF its misercs
To compensate far compensation be Ell
fected, let il now be made to enjoy the advantages Of
true system Of society and become example for the
world TO follow.
Ii is glorious opportunity for Great Britain to lay
solid foundation for permanent, prosperous empire,
such as the world has not yet seen But if neg
lectel by her. the United States will be the first in the
race for this Improvement the greatest of all human ad-
vances They will seize the prize, and set the ex-
ample to all other nations. -. ., ...-. ....r -.
This momentous question, new state Of human ex-
istence upon earth, must speedily be decided upon,
whether il shall be first adopted by Great Britain the
United States whether it shall be federatve union Of
unions, under limited monarchy, federave union
OF unions under republic OF free States. Great Britain
requires the change Immediately TO relieve her
from the dangers OF Fsh anarchy; yet the United States
require IT to give right direction to her immense means,
spread and spreading over extended and extending
territory, make her population prosperous and happy,
without ignorance, dsunion poverty, and crime. II will
be which has the most moral courage to make the
commencement.
So far as the writer aid, both shall have equal
chance Let the contest be friendly between sire
and son, and may both soon become entitled to all the
benefits of the change .. -
To place Ireland in permanently prosperous cond-
ton its population must be well educated, occupied,
It's natural localities, is well known to the writer
highly favorable for the attainment of prosperity excel
lence, and happiness
