PRICE OF BEER.

TO THE EDI Mt OF. THE SUN.

Sts—'Never was the avarice of .Monopolizers more justly
punished than in the pending Tax On Malt. After a year of
unparalleled pr.oductiveness, and when Malt, and hops are
cheaper than they have been known to be during many years,
theTorter has been kept up to as high a price as it ever
reached in times of scarcity. The materials are decidedly
cheaper than they wore in 1801. At that time porter was
sold at 44r1. per pot ; it is nosy tad. This difference, it has
been shown, is equal to a levy uf upwards of •a miltiwt Ster-
ling on the labouring poor of the Metropolis only ! So much
for the condolence due to that ill-fated and devoteffbody, the
greatßrewers. Their blustering auger against the MinisterS
'for turning part of their excessive profits to the aileriation
of the politic necessities, was no more than might be expect-
ed.. Mr. IntIaUGUAM'S lamentation that the tax would take
46,0001. in one year out of the profits of one of his brewing
'friends, will excite the sympathy of a very small circle in-
deed; but the intimation or threat that the tax Would be
made to tali on the labouring, Polir by a hither rise in the
price of Beer, is the point to which I wish to "draw atten-
tion. It is completely in the power of Government to pre-
vent this. Be it made known to these overgrown tradesmen,
that their first step that way shall be met by tbrowhmg open
their trade, by allowing any persons to retail beer, and in
any place, and it is done. They will not dare to rirove
I ant, &c.
• PIJBLICOLA,

TO TPIE EARL OF LIVERPOOL.

ON THE PRICE OF 'BEER.

MI LORD—The diminution of pauperism, and the increase
of the public rerenue, aresnb,Weri-Which his IVialiesty's Mi-
nisters doubtelessly have much at heart. I therefore presume
to suggest to your Lordship means of which I hare an inti-
mate knowledge, for the furtherance of both objects. These
means have the singular quality of offering relief to the
whole of the labouring poor, and an addition to the revenue
of the State, without imposing new hurtheus on any part
of the public.. On the contrary, they would disburthen the
public at large from_a most grinding ,tyranny, the suffering
of which, while it renders multitudes disaffected to the Go-,
vernment, adris not an iota to its influence.

The means consist simply in restoring to the public the in-
dispensible right of a free trade in beer. Under the pre-
sent system, only those may retail beer who can obtain a
license to do so from a few local Justices on one day in the
year. For a term itya house endowed with a license, it is no
unusual thing for one or two thousand pounds to be gireu,
and there are upwards of 48,000 licensed houses in theltiog-
dom. The milliOns thus shared among the license=mongers •
are levied ott the public, 'and chiefly on the labouring poor,
in the additional price which they are made to pay for their
beer. That additional price has been proved to be not
,less
than a penny per pot, which penny, among men who under-
go the severest labour and drink most beer, is equal to a tax
of nearly 10 per cent. on their wages, -and in the aggregate
amounts to an annual levy of 850,000/, on the inhabitants
of the metropolis, and of four sterling on the coun-
try at large. There are thousands of persons who would wit=
Ihigly pay Government such a sum as 2001. for leave' to
open a new holise for selling beer, in places where injurious
monopolies exist. The Victuallers would cheerfully pay a
tax of I0!.:-year to Government, in commutation of the ex-
pence and trouble of annual recognizances, which are a
mete imiranieri, and to obtain protection against the present
arbitrary power of refuting 'licences. It is \likely that 2,000
licences for new houSiS Would be applied corin the monopo-
lized districts, which would yield GovernMent an immediate
sum of 400,000!. The total number,of public-houses, I sup-
pose, may continue at 48,000, as many bad houses being
likely to be put down when deprived of-licensing protectioh,
and subjected to good and equal laws, and unnecessary ones
abandoned, when the profits are reduced by competition, as
may be opened of new free houses; 10/. annually on the
48,000 licenced houses then would afford a revenue of 480,000 e.
Thus retaining a small part only of the value of licences, and
diverting it from the hands,of corrupt and intriguing indivi-
duals to the use of the State, an acceptable Rddition Would
be given to the public revenue. The revenue would be fur-
ther benefited by an increased consumption of malt liquors,
were the trade of selling it rendered free. As the case is, the
public are driven to. use spruce beer, ginger beer, treacle
beer, and other cheap substitutes. If the right of buying
their beer at the. best raerket be restored to the labouring
poor, they will procure it better and cheaper, the ePect of
which on their means will be equal to a rise in their wages,
or to an allowance from the parish.
In adverting to the principle of a free trade, I do not wish
to weaken control over disordersin victualling houses, but to
Strengthen it,.--16t to •dikition Magistrates of power, hut to
change its application from the patronage of the trade of
victualling to the correction of disorders incident to it. I
have frequently published my opinions, and am induced to
trouble your Lordship with my ideas at this lime, because 1
am anxious, that in the correction of the Licensipg System,
when any alteration takes place, it may embrace the interest
of the Public at large.-as well as that of the present Licence-
4tolders. I am, &c:
