Abstract:
In this paper I propose, in the first place, to
direct your attention to the special impediments to the application
of capital to mining operations in Ireland, which arise from the
state of the law with regard to mines. And I do so for the purpose
of showing how groundlessly the case of mines has been brought
forward, to prove that the state of Ireland arises from the perverse
character of the people. I shall, then, conclude this series of
papers, by noticing the theory that the state of agriculture in Ireland
arises from a want of industrial knowledge, which is very
commonly relied on as opposing the conclusions at which I have
arrived.
