No Emigration: The Testimony Of Experience Before A Committee Of Agriculturists And Manufacturers, On The Report Of The Emigration Committee Of The House Of Commons : Sir John English, In The Chair. The Testimony of Experience records the proceedings of a parliamentary inquiry into the state of Ireland and the feasibility and morality of emigration as a remedy for distress. The volume comprises the Committee's minutes and the sworn testimony of 'Experience,' who critiques the Third Report of the Committee on Emigration, arguing that emigration should be a last resort and that responsible governance must address land tenure, capital, and the welfare of the poor. Experience advocates for policy measures to retain the industrious poor at home, including reform of land ownership, the promotion of residence by landed proprietors, drainage and cultivation of waste lands, and a robust English-style system of poor laws adapted for Ireland, while warning against aggressive emigration schemes that would depopulate the country. The work analyzes the roles of capital, wages, and manufacturing in improving national prosperity and cautions against meddling legislation that disrupts trade.
