LORD JOHN RUSSELL.


Lord John Roswell has addressed a letter. dated
Woohnrii Abbey, January 14, to the Yeomanry
and Formers of Huntingdonshire, on the subject
of ■ proposed Petition to l'arlitinent for Relief of
Agricultural Distress. His Lordship says....
It being impossible by means of a Corn Bill to restore the
war prices, 1 beg of you seriously to consider whether a new
Corn Bill is likely to du run at present any good whatever.
Supposing you acre allowed to frame it yourselves, or that
the Legislature should enact a prohibition at all times to
tepee say article the podia* the soil of Great Britain,
would your distress be at all relieved? 1 think 1113 i. I think
alwe, if ?tau agree thus fir, you must also agree with me t►at
any efforts in this direction are nut likrty to be attended with
benefit to yoursel►es. F.x the truth of this 1 appeal to the
bast of all tests-4be eeperience of last year. By active
petitioaing, you obtained a Committee on the slate of Agri-
cahoot, and what was the result? Evidence proving the dis-
t'''m beyond all doubt, sod a Report suggesting no relief but
time and patieace. Time Las not yet brought you any eon-
; and as fur patience, yo surely dud not require
SI gentlemen to sit due, months for the purpose of recom-
mending that well-known virtue.
Rat the Committer have also advised an alleratioa of the
Cora Bill. That is to say, they recommend • lower limper.
tattoo price with s daily. Whether such • law as a prima-
Meet system might not he better than the presets!, I am not
quite prepared to decide. But it is clear that lowering the
importation price would bring you no relief for present dis-
tress. Audi Roo iftlieted to believe, that with many sugared
words, the framer of the Report intended to lay the fouled,-
truer for subvertiur the principle of the Curu Bill altogether,
bed introducing foreig■ corn st all times into the market;
far the principle of admittiag foreign corn when oar own
prices are low bring once granted, it would be extremely
difficult to counterbalance the taxes pahl by the Esglisb
iartuer. A ditty of 40 or 50 shillings • quarter spun foreign
loofa could barfly be enacted; and if enacted, certainly
taualel nut be persisted in. But las inclined to think, that
if fertile"' corn were admitted, even If you had scarcely soy
taxes to pay, it would out be easy for the farmers of England,
