Froude Burke Debate Echoes Irish Question Impasse
The piece notes that Froude argues Ireland cannot become a separate nation while Burke seeks popular government. It asserts the issue requires detailed facts and long labor to resolve, predicts Ireland remains under England until it grows superior in arts and sciences, and observes Anglicization of the North of Ireland. It also reports Horace Greeley's December 4 burial at Greenwood Cemetery with notable attendees.
