Overview

Excerpt from Transactions of the Historic Society, Vol. 2: Of Lancashire and Cheshire The migrations within the limited space of our own island may not have produced the wonderful effects which we, during the last fifteen years, have witnessed through that great exodus which bore away so many of the natives of the sister island to the United States and the Colonies; still, though they may not have exhibited so marvellous a train of moral and social results, they are not destitute of interest; and at the conference of the Social Science Association of 1860, one part of this subject, namely, the manner in which the Irish labourer was competing with, and in many cases supplanting, the native-born labourer of Glasgow, was mentioned by Sir James Emerson Tennent, no mean authority, as a subject peculiarly worthy of investigation.
