Tim SLIDING SCALE.—Now no scheme of a
sliding scale can by any possibility be devised which will ob.
viate the difficulty of expo,ing
merchants to an increased loss
by the rise in the rate of duty in proportion to the fall in the
market price of corn. Sir Robert Peel has pledged
to the principle of the infernal machine; he has
thushiamlls,eeldf
himself to the gamblers, and declared himself opposed to ho-
nest.traders. He may try to moir"ty the scale so as to reduce
She fluctuations in the duty ; but long as it remains a matter
of uncertainty what amount of duty a merchant may have to
Pay when his foreign corn arrives at home, no prudent mer-
chant will engage in so hazardous a trade—no steady, re-
gular trade, like that in cotton, sugar, wool, or any other
article, will be carried on in corn ; the trade in corn will ba
confined, as it is at present, to seasons of scarcity, and will he
mononnized by reckless gamblers. We have merchants in
Manchester sending goods to every. part of the globe, and re-
ceiving in exchange tea, coffee, tobacco, ivory, and every
other production of the world, except corn. We have made
very extensive inquiry, and it is a rema:kable fact that we have
never heard of a single merchant bringing home foreign corn.
They say "there ate a hundred markets to which we send
gtA where he could get corn in exchange, when we can fre-
di
ntly get nothing else; but the risk it so great, the rate of
duty so fluctuating, and the sale so uncertain, that we dare not
snedd e with it; we prefer making a sacrifice to get home our
funds in some other way." Yet this is the infernal machine
which Sir Robert Peel pr.-pates to perpetuate ! Anti- Bread-
