{151} We may add that, in 1850, about 160,000 emigrants embarked from the
port chiefly for the United States, employing 600 large vessels of 500,000
tons.

{172} At the Great Exhibition of Industry of 1851, Mr. G. Wallis, at the
suggestion of the Board of Trade, had the management and arrangement of the
department of manufactures.

{193} Mr. Francis Fuller, whose plan of management on this estate affords a
model for both English and Irish landowners, is the gentleman, who, after
taking most active and vigorous means, in co-operation with Mr. Scott Russell
and Mr. Henry Cole, for bringing before the public Prince Albert's plan of a
Great Exhibition of Industry of All Nations, alone saved the whole scheme
from being abandoned before it was made public, by finding contractors in
Messrs. Mundays to advance the 100,000 pounds, and who did actually advance
21,000 pounds, without which the President of the Board of Trade refused to
issue the Royal Commission, on which the whole success of the scheme rested.
Until the scheme was safely launched, Mr. Fuller, as a Member of the
Executive Committee, devoted his time, and freely expended his money, for the
purpose of supporting this great undertaking. When it was fairly launched
the care of his important business, of which Middleton forms a very small
part, occupied the greater part of his time, and hence his name has appeared
less in conjunction with that splendid triumph of Industry than those of
other gentlemen.
