Excerpt from History of the University of Dublin, (Founded by Queen Elizabeth): Its Origin, Progress, and Present Condition, With Biographical Notices of Many Eminent Men Educated Therein; Illustrated by Views of Its Buildings, and the Academic Costumes, Etc;, This Venerable Seat of Learning And the Author earnestly prays that the great class, which he has the honour of addressing, will then strenuously urge upon the notice of the present enlightened government, - which appears to contemplate a change of system, the propriety and necessity of treating Ireland precisely in the same way, with respect to their feelings, interests, and political condition, as they do Yorkshire, or any other portion of England or Scotland. Such a power taking the field in the cause of Religion, Justice, and Humanity would be irresistible, and that desirable object would be obtained; for it is in such cases, and such only, that the noble truism holds good: Vox Populi Vox Dei. Then would Ireland become, throughout its entire area, as peaceful and as easily governed, as Kent, Essex, or Surrey; the Repeal folly would die a natural death, and Irish demagogues would shrink into their natural dimensions; even the art and mystery of Demagogy itself, would fall to a very low discount, instead of being, as it long appears to have been, at a premium.
