Preface

This Volume does not require an introduction. — The pieces which it contains are valuable fragments of Irish politics ; they show the temper of the times, the character of the government, and the spirit of the people — they throw some light upon the affairs of a misgoverned country, and if they should, at last, convey any useful information to its rulers, they will render a blessing to Ireland, and a benefit to the empire.
