Our countries constituted the Congress of Vienna, and we set out to accomplish several goals. Undeniably, one overarching goal remains to stifleromanticism while promoting the principles and practices based on the ideology ofconservatism . Our initial task lay in arranging a postwar peace settlement. I proposed that we restore those monarchs by invoking the principle of legitimacy. These leaders, I reasoned, would help . However, we also made more practical considerations of power, and each of our countries received compensation in the form of land . By making these territorial arrangements, we believed that we could establish a balance of power whereby no one European country could dominate Europe, especially France, which remained strong even after defeat.

Source 6: Letter from Mary Rush (undated). Published in Kerby Miller and Paul Wagner, Out of Ireland: The Story of Irish Emigration to America (Washington, D.C.: Elliott & Clark Publishing, 1994), pp. 28–29 (Note for students: Many such letters were dictated by the signatories as they may have been only semi-literate.) Dear Father and Mother, Pen cannot dictate the poverty of this country at present. The potato crops are quite done away all over Ireland. There is nothing expected here, only an immediate famine.

And yet, with this appalling fact staring our rulers in the face, we do not find them taking any steps to avert the calamity.
