(Applause) In order to understand these questions fully aud fairly, it Is necessary to go back to the historical events of the time. We find, then, that James tho First had planted Ulster, which moans that he had contiscated uttorly and entirely six of the fair. est counties in Ireland, an entire province, dri ing out Ite Catholic inhabitants to a mi giving the whole country to Scotch and English cy tiers of the de testant religion, and t] bit on was adde that the new settlers not AS MUCH AS AN IRISH LABORER employed in their flelds.
