It is a general remark, that induftrious 

 and attentive men will earn 5!. in the year. 

 The circumftances of the poor are much bet- 

 ter than they were twenty years ago, for their 

 land and cabbing are not charged to them by 

 gentlemen higher than they were 30 years ago, 

 while all they fell bears double the price. 



Potatoes are rather more cultivated and 

 eaten than twenty years ago, and are managed 

 better. The poor in this neighbourhood are 

 by no means to be accufed of a general fpirit 

 of thieving. It arifes from holding them in 

 too much contempt, or from the improper 

 treatment of their fuperiors. No white boys 

 have ever arifen in thefe baronies, nor any 

 riots that laft longer than a drunken bout at 

 3 a fair :
