England (United Kingdom) (search for this): article 7
The emigration from great Britain to the United States --The London News, in explanation of the disgust with the "Ould country" which seems to have seized on the Irish population, says: A succession of bad seasons have reduced the farmers' capital to the amount of many millions, the fortunes of the landowners being reduced in consequence, land let out of cultivation, and stock reduced. With this year the decline is believed to have stopped, and the growth of capital to have begun again. The anxious question is, whether the capital deposited in banks or used in speculation will not be applied to the land as soon as genial seasons remove the dread of a doom of perdition by weather. This is the main question in regard to capital. Lastly — what of the labor? The prodigious emigration now going on leaves little doubt of the entire removal of the old evil of a ruinous competition of laborers. The fear takes the opposite direction now.

ments introduced by recent legislation have sufficed to prevent a new exodus. It might have been thought that the reduction of the population from eight millions to six combined with some development of the resources of the country, would have rendered Ireland sufficiently productive for those who remained behind; but such has not been the case. Owing partly to the increased demand for men in America, partly to the facilities of communication, and partly to assistance provided by earlier emigrants, the flood is now setting across the Atlantic in a larger volume than ever. Nor can there be any doubt about the natural character of the movement. It is purity an equalization of demand and supply, and an Irishman leaves his own country simply because he expects to better himself elsewhere. In order to retard emigration the condition of Irishmen should be improved at home, and that conclusion, we need hardly say, has been very willingly drawn on the other side of St. George's Channel.

e the present generation of Englishmen was born; recent events have perhaps enlarged and precipitated it; but no wisdom or power of our time could have prevented it, or can now stop it at will. It is argued further, that unless speedy improvements be made in the system of tenantry, and the growth of a middle class encouraged — a class of manufacturers and traders — bearing some proportion to the agricultural population, such as is favored just now by the increased culture of flex, then Ireland will be more and more emptied of the Irish, and the only remaining question will be how long before it shall be occupied by immigrants from other lands. The London Times speaks of the condition and prospects as follows: Neither the drain which followed the great famine nor the improvements introduced by recent legislation have sufficed to prevent a new exodus. It might have been thought that the reduction of the population from eight millions to six combined with some development of
