Excerpt from The Connexion Between the Kingdom of Ireland and the Crown of England IN the notice of the Committee appointed by the Repeal Associa tion to carry into effect its objects, with respect to the proposed Essays on the Legislative Union, to be submitted for adjudication to its members, it is suggested that candidates should illustrate the question by examples taken from the history of existing institutions of other countries, and in particular that they should examine how far the constitution of Norway, and its connexion with Sweden, may serve as a model for the new constitution of Ireland. The suggestions of the committee not being obligatory, and the avowed object of the association being to obtain the best argument that can be adduced in support of the Repeal of the act of Union, the writer treats the subject according to his views of the best mode of dealing with it. It is not, he thinks, sufficient to refer to the existing relation of countries connected like Norway and Sweden for an illustration of the subject. Nor is it meeting that subject in all its aspects to confine our regards to the advan tages of repeal, or the disadvantages of a legislative union. It is right at the threshold of this inquiry, to state distinctly, and in terms that cannot be mistaken, or misinterpreted, the sense in which the author uses the words, a distinct kingdom, independent nation, and separate institutions.
