Book excerpt: Excerpt from Banded Ministry: And the Upas Tree This pamphlet was in print and nearly ready for delivery to the booksellers, when the Prime Minister's statement of the University Education Bill was published. He took credit for the alleged benefits arising from the Church Act and Land Act; and, for proof, referred to the statistics of crime, with which those Acts have no more to do than they have with the longitude. The case of Stevenson v. Lord Leitrim, on the construction of the Land Act, is stated at page 57. That Act, in general terms, made the Ulster tenant-right custom binding on landlords; and, at the same time, ignored the most important duty of a wise and benevolent legislature, in omitting to define what that custom was, capable, as it was, and is, of clear and adequate definition, viz., the right of the tenant to sell and transfer his possession to such substitute, as the landlord could not reasonably object to receive, as tenant in his place, at the old rent, or a revised rent. In some localities, and on some estates, there were certain known modifications of the custom - such as limiting the price, in order to prevent the new tenant from parting his whole capital, and entering on the land without the means of working it.
