Excerpt from The Edinburgh Review, or Critical Journal, Vol. 19: For Nov. 1811-Feb. 1812 To bring all the instances I might advance, would fill a vo lume, instead'of a brief Report. I must not, however, omit one lad, James George Penney. About the year 1805, this boy attended the school in Southwark. He was fatherless, and his mother poor. At that time he would often come to school in the morning, and remain there till night without any dinner. This was soon disco vercd by his feeling schoolfellows, some of whom dried up the tears which hunger occasioned, and supplied his wants by a contribution of bread and meat', which some of them were pleased to call a pa rish dinner. This circumstance coming to my knowledge, and knowing him to be an excellent boy, I took him into my house. At first he appeared dull, from habitual depression. The close of the year before last, he was sent into Shropshire, and spent about six months there, in the house of a most liberal and excellent clergyman. The first village school that he organized was for 250 children and such was the progress made by the scholars, that, in one case, the cler gyman was applied to by a man to inform him if such improvement could be made by any thing short of witchcraft. This worthy boy did not leave that part of the nation without organizing schools for hear 1000 children, which number is likely to be doubled in the en suing summer, many persons of in uence in that part of the country having been convinced of the great good to be obtained by the uni hersal diffusion of knowledge among the lower orders of society. This lad is now settled at Bath over a school of 300 children and my accounts from Sir Horace Mann, Baronet, the President, speak highly of the state of the school, and conduct of the master.

Excerpt from The Edinburgh Review, or Critical Journal, Vol. 17: For Nov. 1810-Feb. 1811 In the second place, this exclusion is an actual and certain evil, in so far as it renders one fifth part of our whole population dis contented and uncomfortable. The recess by which all such sweeping proscriptions extend as if t, much further than they actually reach as injury, begetting, on the one side, a general habit of insolence and contempt, and, on the other, a feeling of resentment and degradation, we have formerly endeavoured to explain. We do not apprehend, however, that most of our read ers will think any explanation necessary, or find any difficulty in believing, that every Catholic in Ireland, however humble or ob scure, must feel his order dishonoured b these exclusions, and suffer considerably in his comforts from eir subsistence.
