MARTIN DOYLE is an Irish CORBETT,—that is to say, the
agricultural Cobbett, the Long Island Gardener, the Indian Corn Chief; the Cottage Economist, the patron of locust-trees, and the enthusiastic eulogist of trenching and drill-husbandry. If CORBETT does not circulate in Ireland, we hope DOYLE may : he abounds in useful information, practical hints, and economical directions. if such information could fairly be infused into the minds and habits of the peasantry and small farmery, it would mightily contribute to their improvement. At present, they assemble at the public-houses every Sunday night to hear CORBETT read : we should be glad to choose his works for them. However, they will be able to select for themselves in time, and magistrates must submit to the evil of having state matters discussed at the
Lion and Tongs. •
MARTIN DOYLE allows that he has copied much from CORBETT; but he is principally indebted to Loupe:Nis admirable Encyclopeedie of Agriculture. These pamphlets are cheapf and calculated for extensive circulation among the poor. We recommend an imitation of them by some practical Englishman.
