Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sharp Spear Flaming Sword of Political Justice: Unsheathed and Fearlessly Wielded in Explaining Political Principles, in Cutting Up Whig and Tory Pranks, and Especially in Discussing the Great Irish Questions of the Day, Addressed in the Form of Letters, John Bright, Esq., John; S. Mill, Esq., Right Ho Bill will support a Tory or a Whig policy of dealing with Ire land. The determination will be wide-spread and Irresistible, that no sinister interests of Protestant ascendency or land-lord domination shall be allowed to stand in the way of securing for the Irish people the removal of every grievance which they can trace to le islation, or the maintenance of any right to which they can moral y la claim. There can be no danger in being just; and the more (ice ly the subject is considered the more necessary does it become t at all the energies of mind and action in the Liberal party should be employed for the satisfactory solution of the Irish Church question -for a judicious attack u n the roots of a vicious s stem, where vast sums are absor ed by grandees and do-no ingis', for which there is not the shadow of excuse or justifieation. He question of the Irish State Church, however, is of great magnitude, and it has so many ramifications that the utmost caution 18 required in dealing with it, so as to avoid causing a new grievance whilst remedying the old one. The in telligence of the Nation has, however, pronounced it an institution damaging to the cause it professes to serve, and fatal to that mutual good-will and cordial co-o ration which ought to subsist between Ireland and the Le is ature of the United British Queendom. It is plainly the uty of Parliammt to inves ate the whole subject in a calm, candid, and judicial spirit. He time has ha pily assed away when Statutes merely embodied the absolute w' l of t e minority, - when National legislation simply meant the right of might.
