But this, and many others I omit being studious ofbrevity.
Supposing that one thousand families in this city, would be constantcustomers for infants' flesh, besides others who might have it atmerry-meetings, particularly weddings and christenings, I compute thatDublin would take off annually about twenty thousand carcasses, and therest of the kingdom (where probably they will be sold somewhat cheaper)the remaining eighty thousand.
I can think of no one objection, that will possibly be raised ag...ainstthis proposal, unless it should be urged that the number of people willbe thereby much lessened in the kingdom. This I freely own, and wasindeed one principal design in offering it to the world. I desire thereader will observe, that I calculate my remedy _for this oneindividual Kingdom of Ireland, and for no other that ever was, is, or, I think, ever can be upon earth_. Therefore let no man talk to me ofother expedients: _Of taxing our absentees at five shillings a pound: Ofusing neither clothes, nor household furniture, except what is of ourown growth and manufacture: Of utterly rejecting the materials andinstruments that promote foreign luxury: Of curing the expensiveness ofpride, vanity, idleness, and gaming in our women: Of introducing a veinof parsimony, prudence and temperance: Of learning to love our Country, wherein we differ even from_ LAPLANDERS, _and the inhabitantsof_ TOPINAMBOO:[134] _Of quitting our animosities and factions, nor act any longer like the Jews, who were murdering one another at thevery moment their city was taken: Of being a little cautious not to sellour country and consciences for nothing:[135] Of teaching landlords tohave at least one degree of mercy toward their tenants.
