O Connell’s Domestic Legislature and Irish reform
The author analyzes Mr O Connell s proposed domestic legislature and rejects his plan to extinguish Tithe Rent charge and grant fixity of tenure. They argue tithes would simply boost landowners, oppose perpetual occupancy, and warn such reforms could hurt Irish tenants, capital, and agriculture. They critique O Connell s free trade stance and oppose Irish repeal linked protectionism. The piece contrasts reform with impractical goals and condemns agitation that could provoke bloody disputes.
