He would not enter into all thecae'', assigoed for the peculiar situation in which the country was placed. ,He wee not prepared ter say to what proportion la:miens by the Qoverninent, the restrictions on the currency. or the eon laws, might have severally tended to produce the preseq, situation of affairs. :Moat was owing to all these citeumstances, Bilt the principal part. he firmly • . believed, was owing to the corn laws. To retrace the steps which had been taken with septet to the caftan? w.is. be feared, impossible; but it was the more neces soft° resort to other measures which were within the power of the Legislature. The manufacturing popu lation was estimated at shoo seven millions, and the aviculturel population amounted to about the same number. The manufacturint thus had risen within the last severity years to a degree of greatness and power width had been a great means of upholding and sup. ',ding the strength of this country in its dif f iculties. doily very 'recently many pada of the world were tri• lottery to this country for suppl*s of some articles of general necessity, and. in some degree, for corn. A great part of our population. therefore. was devoted to supplying foreigners, and, if that part of the population was deprived of the employment afforded to it by fo soigne s.it was thrown back on the rest of the population. and created dist ess in proportion to the numbers thrown out of employment. Up to the year 1765, and. forfifty Mars previous to that period. England was an eiporte trig nation, exporting on an average. 200.000 quartets of corn every year. This corn, of cosine, came into competition with that of Pidand. and Eaglend was ; enabled to undersell the corn of Dantsic. Whilst Eng. hied was exporting, on an average. 215.000 quarters; Dantaic never exported a greater qtiautity thin 86.000 quarters. Subsequently to 1765Eirgbiln8 came an impeding country as regarded.corn, natant, which was to be ascribed to the gradual growth of ma usgactures, and the withdrawal 41 the bounty which, as far es it um, bad forced capital into land. Fronithe year 1772 there was a gradual rise in the snatiufactutes of ibis country, and from that period it was found more bentf.cial that England should import corn to teed her manufacturers and send their manufactures to other , civilities to sell. There was virtually a free trade in corn, arid was. in fact, a continued importatioo, up to the year 1815, and up to that time there was a gradual joie/ease in the manufacture's of the cruntry, whilst the agricultural population was also improving.. Every article of production was doubled in value. Over ape- ' culistion atd bad harvests occasionally created distress. bur the prosperity of the country wenton arety tepidly.' ar.d the restrictions on the importation of corn bad no pleat effect up to the year 1815. From 1796 to 1815. th inclusive, being a period Of twenty yeas. the total 9u.ntity of torn imported was 9,622,000 quarters, bee log air average of 481,135 quarters. Now, these facts. 1.0 conceived, ansuered those who feared 'to allow io reigneo, n Po be admitted. When the importation of foreign corn was permitted a very small quantity was imported. It might be said that the period to which he referred wa. a time of war, but, though it wss a time of war, yet a regular importation of corn did exist: Is the. year 1810, when the Milan decrees were in force, and Boor/parte was making the greatest exertions to shut se' out from the Continent, there was a larger importation of coos than in any former year. There was nothing to feat, therefore. from the large importation of tom it I the traitor was now to be made free. The price that could be got in thistoontry was the inducement to t' e fo teigoer. .and the bi o tite, the price the grease the induce. meat. From 1816 to 1827 the totalqrsantity of corn Posted %es4,i/674090qm being an average of 419.000 goalies. Atte/ the passing of the Cute Lilo in tHI3. it was still loeptinecessary to admit core from the Con ' Perm by Orders of Council and othermeaus, but the impotostioa-of cora did sot amount to half a million of ' guarter,b on Of average. •If he showed that the present systr m was .the paissit tel great evils. it was a sufficient vomid toe st change of system By the forego trade of the country rat ICOSITCci were maintained.-but by abridging .case taped trade in corn, the trade which this country denied on with she Continent. in Milo° factusos was also abridged. By the restriction's on its importation of corn Our manufacturers.wereptelediced, and our arosaaa.throwo out of employment. The Oro defillons of Mar Manufactures' and artisans could not bw 60111 on the Continent because we could not take their coca, which was the only commodity In which they could pay us. There were a million of men now oat of employment ready to dispose of their labour, sad they were prevented from being employed solely adipose the law prevented corn from being impeded in _return for their labour. There was no use in preducing Isfiedware. Or cloth, or cotton, !to sale in foreign court *); beeatt•e we could not take back the corn of those ceontries, which tyro the only thing they produced. The Legislature said that oo corn was so be imported, and tl4 effect was to raise the price of manufactures, apd reigns the manufacturers of this countryfrom com posing with those of other countries. There was a vett disparity bete een the price of corn in England and on the Continea ; and the House had beenotold that corn could be bought on the Continent for twenty-five shillings, while it was sold in England for sixty During the whole century previous to the year 1765 ffilgilltid was enabled to sell corn lower thaniher neigh hours; but horn 1765 to 1815. there was' an average balance of imports to the amount of 215000 quarters.

Oss half of the labourer's wages -1 1 weut in taxes paid upon the. *feral nesessirles or futurist which the labourer consumed; the other half was paid for fond; and, were it not fur the advantages which the people of this country enjoyed from the divi sion of labour. the perfection of machinery, roads, and other circumstances. they could not for a moment com pete with their rivals in the markets of the Continent.' From the facts which he had laid before the House, the disparity between the condition of the British and fo reign manufacturer must have been sufficiently up. parent, and that disparity, though pressing with extreme severity upon the manufacturers. did not produce a corresponding advantage to the landed proprietor. li was quite a mistake to suppose that the opening of the port. in this country would have the effect of lowering the price of corn to the extent which bad been repro. seated. Opening the ports would only raise corn . in fo• reign markets, not depreciate it in our own; for, what. ever its price might be abroad, there would be always the expenses of transit to prevent its .entering into an undue competition with our native produce. The ea penset of transit from America would be 12r. from Dantzic Is. 6d. from o.iessa. M. and, accordingly, (t!e . former would have no well-grounded apprehension from excessive influs,.ff he and the other members of the coils- Innvite were 'shown any thing like fair play. As the law stood, ailenever the price became really blab, the ports were opened. and a glut ensued, which. ; in the end, must prove ruinous to all patties. Tke .monopoly which did exist was a misfortune of the most serious kind; it produced unsteadiness and reiul `sions by which item dais in the community was most injuriously affected. As to the turners, their intelest . really went loge destruction of the monopoly, polar, ' 6 iadeed, that potties; of them who bad leases. He would *oppose the case of this country in reference to its foreign trade to stand thus; not that be meant.ibe numbers should exhibit any approximation towards the_ real spte of matters, but they would suffice to "plain his meaning. Suppose six manufacturers werOugaged in supplying the home market, and twb with the foreign, making eight in all, it was evident duo, if the Legislature prohibited the introduction of such articles as were required for paying the two bianufacturers, they would be left to starve or to become the rivals of remaining six. Thus the waged of labour would be depreciated, the quality of men. food graclually•re duced. their labour per day, from being ten• hours. ouldrise to eleven. twelve, this teen, or fourteen hoofs, to obtain a bare maintenance. It was not to be denied, that the corn lawspreverlieithiexPortatiort of mono! factures, and that their mischievous effects recoiled upon the agriculturists themselves, for the increase off psupetism led to the. augmentation of the pools' rates. What would be thought of persons who voluntarily put I themselves in a state of btockaded—in a state no better than that of a besieged town? It was nothing less than to say that the production of corn for the people of this ,country should have a limitation to the soilof England/ He totally denied that the corn laws had the effect ; which was attributed to them of keeping the price al sixty shillings. It fluctuated almost unceasingly. At' the present moment the trade in coin was the most per. feet gambling that could be conceived. At the present moment great inequalities existed in-the trade between this country and foreign Stater. The inconveniences arising from those inequalities mist be apparent to every body. It was owing to them that much of the present distress existed. 'But bow did those inequali ties arise? Why, antely from the nature of the present, corn laWs—tboselaws which, by prohibiting the haw. tation of grain, denied the mechanic and the labourer food, and created throughout the errantry an anti-sbeial feeling which could not be otherwise than prejudicial sO ft. These facts he trusted would convince the House that some change onght vi be made. He might be asked what change he would propose—whai substitute be would adopta..fer:the existing lair? He would an seier, free trade ; and ha thought that the present, of all rather times, se: the most proper for the introduction of the princirles of flee trade as respected the imposts.' tha of grain into this country. The duty upon cora. Recording to the present plan, varied, Ile believed, from I3a. to 15s. per quarter-.-(The Hon. Member was here ',formed that this day's duty was about 13..) That was about what he thought. Now he would propos , / that, instead of boor, as at present, flied upon a gra duated scale, rambling through note:rutin variations, a ked duty should be put—say of 150 per quarter upo 1 wheat, 10s. upon barley, and fis. upon oat.. This would be about the relative amount of their value. If they would allow him to go into a Committee, he would then propose that from these rates there should be an annual reduction of 10 (for i im,elf he should prefer it to be 21 'or Ss.) and he tried not so Much On the ad. vantage of this gradthil !eduction as upon the acknow• lodgment of the. pi inciple that the por to wei e to be open at* fixed rate for corn to the free trader, as well as in all other articles. Were this once enacted, the adeahiege• heconteaded,would he much in favour of the agricultu rist. To examine thi. point.he would call their attention to the mannef in which the fixed duty would operate Gk • would at once open the porta of Great Britain tor the receptiOn of her proportion of the surplus corn of all she other countries in the universe. Goo knows, If ey had Manulacturers enough to pay for every thing, pry eided they could obtain proper employment: The effect at abe measure would undoubtedly be to tame the price ' Id' :ern all uv. r. the *odd, arid England would have 'tleaus of 'exchanging her manufactures for her share iiii the commodity. In thi. plan there would he brined bee* fluctuation or alternation of prier, eibratine in the' `eastkcif, and alarming the people. The mo e the, ibis: ke4 (like individuals) were scattered in this wide. world, the le.s chaneethere would be of a reduction OA demaad for their manufactures, and the less probabi lity of that &idea supply of food which occasionally led to famine and misery, and is fact was the alleged' cause of these corn laws. A steady price would, by opening the maikee, neutrally keep*. the commodity at its fair value..and prevent thole dangerous vacillations of which eery body complained. It 'would also pre vent gluts, for the demand for their manufactures wool& be regulated by the exchanges, and the prices would be equally •deteimitied. Another adiantage from the change would be, their getting rid of the monstrous and unwieldy machinery of what were.caltrd the averages. .The country Gentlemen who depended upon the equity of these were not cc are of the tricks and frauds which were daily practised in the regulationot these averages.

Gentleman then pro. forded, at considerable length. to refer to the tetarns of the duty levied upon corn during the lest nine year.. and to contend that under a proper system of regula tion a revenue of 1,200,00 W. instead of 256.0001. might base been raised upon them. to the relief of the mum focturer,.whmo razes would then. in a great degrre.ho paid by the foreign consumers. to his animal tedisci.in of the day upon corn, he said, lie meaotto proceed tin ed the agrfculturist was liable to no other tax than so ciety at large. He complained that every article of food —haat, eggs. bay, se.—was 'Athlete to heavy taxation, and denied that it was the agriculturist alone aim pro. doted corn; every artisan and mechanic equally pro duced it, by fabricating an article vhi:h was ex changed for the corn of foreign States. lithe principle which he recommended was to be adopted. this land. .so pregnant with the matetials of productive industry, would flow with milk and honey—(4 lattAli) It did indeed, at present, for wealth and luxury could provide the growth of any (reign land for the table. of the reds the misfortune under the existing system was, that the milk and honey did not Sow tray how down. He then combated the doctrine. that land wa- the source of nutional‘wealth, - for what was it, he asked, m 'de States great, but .commerce ? in illustration of which 1 posioon he quoted the Historirs. of. 'Carthage, Genoa. Venice. and the flans Towns.. He. would have the I.:crantry Gentletheir toc'onsJer wire.her the law, which: ithey -maintained tor the eictusion of foreign corn, w..a, 'au equivalent sufficient to compensate them for the !diminished detain& and pi ice for the viariousother pro. ducts of their tarots. A Gentleman, who bad a'farm a short distance from Mantbester, obberireJ, that when ever trade was brisk at that place. every article belong. ins yo his farm brought high price., and added that Le coold tell without any particular intotasaticm on the 'suliject,bytbe piece which his bailiff obtained for the pro- duce in the market, what was the' state of trade in Maw. chaster. Ile thooglit he is as , boo ne out by every proof and Argument in the principle be had endeavouted to establish, and that his principle. if adopted and follow• d up, Would lead tq perfect freedom in commerce wish respect to every attiele.. He disiied no other tram. fuels to be imposed upon trade and commerce than such as might be necessary . fsr raising the revenue. The strength and prosperity of the country was said to de. pend upon the flourishing condition of agriculture; be did not think this was the. case exclusively. Besides, the agricultural interest depended on the ship owner, the manufacturers, &c. who were all indissoitrly con nested. - If you allowed these interests to decay, rive landed interest would' decay along • with them. He urged Gentlemen to look back at the times if Charles the Second, and to examine the state if England at that . period. England was then thinly peopled, and its ' exports were principally . confined to raw articles. Let Gentlemen look at the state cf the landed in terests then. as contrasted with their subsequent pros. persty and improvement—let HohourableMembers trace the prOgress of cultivation, and observe the increased .vplue of landed property, which had since taken I.lsce in evict propuitton to the increase of iummercensid manufactures. birch at weooght to attend to the home juaihet—and he admitted that was an important con sidgratitai—he would not neglect the foreign market.— ,The consumers at home paid the taxes t but if w e eves admitted the principle sought to be established by Sit john Sinclair, with regard to the Support of the home Inarket,independently of the multitude of persons wtorri we should thus throw out of ettiploYinent, we shoUld cast the whole weight of .52,000,0004 of taxes (the amount now levied) on the home. market.. Hr stated this as a reason why the home market should not-hr. - held up as the objet of exclusive support and pre tesence. By carrying on commercial intercourse with foreign States, we made fOrtigirets pay a poi tion of our taxes. There was one objection which he wished to an. ticipate. It would be said This country is very heavily taxed, and therefore we cannot enter into corn. petition with other states not similarly burdened." Now heavy taxation was a reason why we should endeavour to extend our commerce. for in that way only could we get free from the load which oppressed us. It was also mud " commies where there is cheap torn are very mi. `Bitable' this was because they had no manutactufes, as in the capes of Ireland and l'oland, where corn was cheap for this reason. There the grocers . of the article could ontAet corn to feed on. A counuy without trade, is Ireland and Poland, was in the situation of a country of slaves, where these was plenty of , rum, plenty of . sugar, plenty of coffee, plenty of cocoa, but the slaves gat none of them. The slaves in the West Indies weir [unable to consume the produce of the soil for the same seasons exact!, as rendered Irishmrn unable toconsunitt wheat and oats. The litter got potaioes to feed them, and nothim else ; the wheat and oats went. in payment Of rent to their landlords. Rear up a portion of Lush.. men as manutacturers, and then they' will be able to *O4 therr•labour and ingenuity in exchange for a pot. , ta43 of the wheat and oats. It was necessary to men tion one other objection. Some persons say "• it is not fit that we should tr a de w i t h ot h er countr i es, if they will nut !rid, with us upon equal terms." They add--" unless a ptiisci, - .le of seciproci y be Acted on by shrift, it is proper • to prohibit the importation ol foteign corn, so long as they refuse to tak e B r i t i s h art i c l es ." He denied this . :- be .admitted reciprncity was a good thing, and that it: we could pe.suade Frames to give her wine and Ml: in exchange for our bard• are and cloth, it would he. all very well; but still if she refused to act thus,. we should riot on that account decline to accept such of her commodities as we could advantageously as opt. We ought to take from France whatever we could get cheaper there than elsewhere. Russia had put us under'.'n ban as regarded reciprocity, yet we good mituredly took her hemp, tallow, &c. Why did we-do this? We did not send her any manufactured goods directly, and according to the argument referred to, she amount et our dealings with Russia must be a dead loss. But Russia was supplied by France with brandy, wine, itc. and Portugal sent her wine, olives, 'and other articles to Russia. :Our- hardware and cloth found their way into France (smuggled or not, it did not matter); our jackets went to Portugal; and thus we paid for Russian hemp and . tallow •as if our Clothing and hardware went direct. to .Russia in ex change tor them. The means by which the operation was effected might be circuitous, but the/ involved a principle of perfect reciprocity. in. the .end. ltmas our duty to buy at the cheapest and sell at tbasteatest, market we could, and by multiplying stir Market• and mileages. to carry on as much trade as poirsible*Wlth respect to the position of the Hon.
