Anti-Corn-law League are in full operation, you, my Lord,
have felt it your duty to declare yourself an adherent to their
doctrines--doctrines which we think are false in principle,
dangerous in practice, and carried out by very. disreputable
means. Your open adherence to their principles, when a
-dignified-reserve ought to have guided your conduct, compels
us to declare that we will not support the Royal Agricultural
Society of England if you remain any longer President."
