Excerpt from The History of Ireland, Vol. 1: From the Earliest Period of the Irish Annals, to the Present Time Most of the distinguished speakers in the house of commons delivered their sentiments at more or less length on this important subject, and all the arguments in favour of the petition or against it were fairly put forward; yet, after a very long debate, and an able summary of the question in conclu sion by Fox, the advocates of the catholics were defeated by nearly the same majority as in the house of lords. Only a hundred and twenty-four members voted with Mr. Fox, while three hundred and thirty-six votes were given against his motion. Thus was the question of catholic emancipation set at rest for the present, as far as the legislature was concerned with it.

Excerpt from A Popular History of Ireland, Vol. 1 of 2: From the Earliest Period to the Emancipation of the Catholics In former times, Ireland was as well wooded as watered, though hardly a tree of the primitive forest now remains. One of the earliest names applied to it was the wooded Island, and the export of timber and staves, as Well as of the furs of wild animals, continued, until the beginning of the seventeenth cen tury, to be a thriving branch of trade. But in a succession of civil and religious wars, the axe and the torch have done their work of destruction, so that the age of most of the wood now standing does not date above two or three generations back. Who were the first inhabitants of this Island, it is impossible to say, but we know it was inhabited at a very early period of the world's lifetime - probably as early as the time when Solo mon, the Wise, sat in Jerusalem on the throne of his father David. As we should not altogether reject, though neither are we bound to believe, the wild and uncertain traditions of which we have neither documentary nor monumental evidence, we will glance over rapidly what the old Bards and Story-tellers have handed down to us, concerning Ireland before it became Christian.
