STATE OF IRELAND.. Remarks by a Junior to his Senior, on an article in the Edinburgh Review of January, 1844, on the State of Ireland, and the Measures for its Improvement.1844
London: James Ridgway, First Edition, 83, [1] pp., disbound. An attack on an article in the Edinburgh Review which purported to deal with the debates in the House of Commons on the state of Ireland, and the Irish Arms Bill. The stated object of this reply was "to point to the public the difficulty and impolicy of an attempt to force the Irish Catholics a provision for their clergy; at the same time to draw public attention to some measures of a plain, and practical, kind, which may enlist the attention, perhaps the support, of men of all parties." Among other subjects, the writer deals with the state of landed property, the administration of justice to the poor, the established church, education, the Irish Poor Law, and the repeal of the Union
