A fow facts from American hise tory may be of rome value In solving this im- portant question. Twenty years ago the slavery questlon In the United States scemed about ns ditficult of gettlo- ment ns the land question now does In Great Britain, Tere were two parties tu thiy country whose opluions on the question were dinmetrically op- pused to each othor. Tho slaveholders rezarded the negroos as theie property, and demanded tho right of protection for such property luany of tho United States or Werritorles where they chose to tako thom. The Aboltfon party de- nied the right of propertyin men, and demanded that the slaves be emancipnted, without even compeneating tho sluvchotders for tho losses they would thus sustaln, A few men of sound Judgment proposed that tho United States Gov- ernment should purchase thoso slavesat a falr compunsation and free them. There wore nt that thee nbout 4,000,000 sinves In (his country, Ineluding men, women, and children. Ata valuo of $600 oach, which was considered n fulr valua- tion, tho wrgregato cost to the Government to purchase the entlre number would have been SO 00; at SLOW ench, tho Dilghcst estis niisted valuation, the nggregato cost would have bEn1n £4,000, 00,000, Neliter the slaveholdors nor thoe Atolitiontsts woukl listen for a momett to such a plan of set- tiement of the slavery question. Neitlier woukl the puoplo of the NoFth, who wore to ho tuxed 10 pay for the slaves, sanction siel o schome, Pho question was finally sottied by war, Tho- suveholders Jost thuir sinves, reeelving. not the alightest compensation for themn, About t mill- {on of white men, In whoss voins flowed tho Dest hiood of the Natton, were siaughtered, and thousands of willions of proporty wero destroyed by the War, largo portlons of the Southorn Elates wero devasted, rich plantations despolicd, ond costly mansions rulned. Broken bearts were found 1n aluost gvery houschold ln the Natlon, Tho War cast tho peopie about $ROUM00,000, Tully twleo tho highost iimonnt estimated which thoy pro- posed 1o nee for the purehinse of the siaves. A debt of $2,000.000,000 I8 ptill hangiug over tho people,—an nmount suthielent to lave given thy sluveholders a frir compensation for every slave they owned, and suctionnl hatred {8 still preva- lent ovor both North and South, Do not these favts go to sbow that tho true wuy to have settled the sluvery queston would bave been for the Governmeni to buve pur- chused the sluves and emnncipated them? Should not Fi frum these facts? 18 there not n strang anulogy hetween tho Irish land question nnd A sluvery? Do not the landiords clutm tho right to monopolize the Jand und to compel thoir ten- wnts o give them the lurgest shnro of the prad- uct of tho land, sithough thoy are obtaincd by tho labor of the tenunts? Ov the otbor hnnd, do not the tenuats cluhin that the Jund is the gift of Goul 1o tho whole people, and that it 18 wrong tor a tow to monopolize ftully Do thoy ot Justly quustion tho titles by which the lundlords como In posgession of thoso vast ostates? Iuve not those tenmuts and thefr ancestors for gens crations Iubored lonr und hard, and endured pm‘urlfl‘ and privation, while tho Jundlurds bBave dived In o ense and luxury on the products of thelr labor? Are not most of the prezent tenanta In poverty und on tho verge of starvation, with littlo prospeet of nnything Lotter in stove for thein in the future?

Would not this money be more prolitably ine vested by ‘mn:lmslmr those Inuds and ectllog thotn for fulr compensation te the tenants?

Would not sich n result. en- dnnger not only the lives and proporty of tho laudlordg, but serlously endanger ‘tho” Engiish Governmunt also? In viow of all theso contingencies, does not your great knowledge and oxperlonce in publie ATnirs suggest that the purchise of these lands by the Government and [ta silo to the teunnts will be tho wisest polioy fur the Enwlish Gavarn- ment. to pursie I gdjustiog tho Irish land question?
