Suggestions for Improvement, and Means for me liorating the Condition of the People. As husbandry must ever be the chief occupation of country people, an improvement in the mode of agriCulture, which it is to be hoped will soon take place, is their chief want of a temporal kind. To improve their moral qualities, gratuitous, or cheap schools, conducted by men properly qualified, religious instruction leading to sobriety, industry, and a provident concern for their families, are the most likely to meliorate their condition; and without the adoption of these, or such means, the lower classes of the Irish people must ever continue in their present state, however favourable to moral improvement their natural dispositions and intellects may be. 2 Graige, supposed to be part of Dungantown, not now so called, 50 5 Whitechurch and Powlmalow, now called Piltown,......... 519 10 Ballyvoilare, or Plank town, (alluding to a plank over a rivulet,) 150 11 Old Court, (self explained,) 267 12 Great Island,............... 442 13 Kilmanogue, or the burying place of young Manus, the supposed 174 17 Ballyvarney, or Gaptown, now called Fisher's town, 406 18 Ballykeerogue beg, or the lesser town of the black beetle, .. 19 Cooleherrin, or the back of Ireland, it was also called Hoburt, 65 FT CORRIGENDA: THE following Additions and Corrections were transmitted after the Sec tions to which they belonged had gone to Press, and therefore they could not be introduced into their proper places.

I am sorry to say there has been a melancholy falling off, in some measure owing to that great political change, by which every thing has been more or less affected, and partly by ill management at home. When our manufactures had a good market, it was lost by deteriorating the goods, with a mistaken view of increasing the profits. The wickedness and dishonesty of the proceeding punished itself, by alienating the buyers. Active measures, however, are now taking to restore the credit of the manufacture; to introduce Scutching mills, and give a new spur to industry in this most important source of national wealth, under the auspices of Peter Bernard, Esq.

They pay the masters they employ (who are generally those who are found teaching in the country) for each scholar taught by them, at something below the common rate of payment in the country; and they have inspectors quarterly to visit the schools, and ascertain that the children have attended, and been instructed according to the plan laid down, upon which depends the payment of the master. The schools are supplied with books, gratis, which are the First and Second Sunday-School Union Spelling-Books, and lastly the Testament, much of which the children are obliged to commit to memory.
