1853. Abstract of a letter from Lord Ashburton to the Statistical
Committee of the Alresford Union on the topic of agricultural statistics returns.
“I should add that our Scotch
neighbours, who are shrewd enough to detect what is and what is not for their
advantage, have made their return without hesitation. A still more searching return has been made
for two years from Ireland, without complaint on the part of a tenantry who are
as quick in perceiving as they are skilful in producing a grievance.”
